Council

Help keep this record right

Do you know King’s councils — as a resident, a reporter, a former member, a clerk? The record for King is read by software from the minutes and checked against their own totals, and it still needs people who can tell when a page is wrong. Volunteer as a reviewer for King, or read what a reviewer does.

What these columns mean

They measure different things and are not interchangeable. Moving a motion usually means sponsoring a staff report’s recommendation onto the floor. Seconding puts a motion up for debate and is often a seat convention rather than agreement. Meetings are counted against the ones each member was on the record for — not against the whole term, because members join and leave mid-term, so two members’ figures here are not comparable.

Individual positions exist for 1 of 689 motions — under 1% of them — because Ontario law records names only when a member asks. Members ask on the most contentious items, so that is a deliberately skewed sample and says nothing about the rest.
