The City Manager is pleased to announce that the results of the Core Service Review public consultation are now online. You can view public input as well as themes from our roundtable discussions, reports from Councillor-led ward meetings, and other feedback. We have also posted the raw data from the feedback forms in case you are interested in doing your own analysis (personal information has been removed).
Highlights of the consultation process include:
- Councillors and hundreds of residents attended roundtable discussions across the city
- Approximately 13,000 people and organizations gave input through our feedback form
- Many City staff volunteered their time to be facilitators and subject matter experts to support the discussion.
The results of the public consultation were produced by City staff following the close of the consultation period on June 17. Given the quantity and variety of input we received, this analysis should be considered preliminary. We invite you to read the results, explore the raw or summary data, and share your analysis with us in the blog comments or at torontoservicereview@toronto.ca.
The City Manager will present his Report on the Core Service Review to special meetings of City Council's Standing Committees between July 18 and July 28. The City Manager's Report reviews advice from external consultants as well as the public input from the consultation. Each Committee will review the same public consultation material, as well as a portion of the consultant's report on City services - the portion relating to services governed by that particular Committee. The first Committee that will meet to consider the City Manager's Report is the Public Works and Infrastructure Committee.
Other Committee agendas will be posted on our 'Results' website and the City Clerk's website as soon as they are available. Visit the City Clerk's website for more information on dates, agendas, and information on how to make a deputation (presentation) at one of the Special Standing Committee meetings.
