The staff team from the City Clerk’s Office that has developed toronto.ca/council was recognized Thursday night as one of two finalists for the City Manager’s Award, the highest internal award offered within the Toronto Public Service.

The City Manager's Award for Toronto Public Service Excellence is a recognition initiative introduced in 2008 by former City Manager Shirley Hoy, who donated a beautiful bronze sculpture to the City at that time. The three rings of the Triad sculpture symbolize the Toronto Public Service values of service, stewardship and commitment. The award is presented annually to a City division or program that has achieved a high and measurable standard of excellence.

The legislative information portal is the public window on a larger system called the Toronto Meeting Management Information System (TMMIS).  The system is the principal tool used by the City Clerk’s Office Secretariat to manage agendas, decisions and minutes of City Council, its committees and selected boards.

We are proud of the dedicated staff who have worked on this project and continue to plan further improvements and enhancements.

Our goal continues to be to make the legislative information available to the public in the same form and same timelines as the decision makers themselves.
