BACKGROUND
With the inauguration of the new Executive Management Committee replacing both former Steering
and Executive committees, and as per the new committee's terms of reference, voting members of the
Executive Management Committee are required to elect two committee officers: a Chair and a Vice -
Chair.
Embracing the potential of innovation and multi -stakeholder collaboration Executive Management
Committee officers are expected — over the course of their two (2) year mandate — to lead the way by
means of support, facilitating progress and ensuring the project's effectiveness, and acting as Partners in
Project Green's primary spokespersons.
Partners in Project Green leadership is entrusted to individuals that will spark enthusiasm and ensure
steady progression towards the realization of the Pearson Eco -Business Zone vision in this next chapter
of the project's history.

AND THAT the following members be appointed to Partners in Project Green Service
Centres:
SERVICE CENTRES BUSINESS LEADERS
Brad Chittick
Jonathan Davies
Performance Committees and Service Centres will be established as task -oriented
subcommittees to the Executive Management Committee. While Performance Committees will
focus on the design and delivery of innovative Partners in Project Green programs, Service
Centres will direct their efforts towards the development and implementation of new self-
sustaining revenue streams. Despite this fundamental difference, both Performance
Committees and Service Centres will work together in the pursuit of common goals. That is, to
drive positive environmental, social and financial outcomes in the areas of energy performance,
waste management, water stewardship, and stakeholder engagement.
PERFORMANCE COMMITTEE CHAIRS AND VICE -CHAIRS
Over the course of their two (2) year mandate, Chairs and Vice -Chairs will act as
spokespersons for their respective Performance Committees. Chairs are also expected to
provide leadership on specific initiatives and effective communication between the Executive
Management Committee and Performance Committee, and among committees as appropriate.
As per the Performance Committee terms of reference, municipal councillors appointed to the
role of Vice -Chair will be granted the right to delegate the operational responsibilities of Vice -
Chair to a senior member of their staff so long as it is communicated to the Executive
Management Committee in writing, and with the understanding that councillors will remain
committed to actively supporting their delegates in the performance of these responsibilities.
SERVICE CENTRE BUSINESS LEADERS
Making use of their expertise, networks and available resources, Service Centre Business
Leaders will — over the course of their two (2) year mandate — work together with Partners in
Project Green staff to facilitate the development of innovative business models and business
plans that are in line with the Pearson Eco -Business Zone vision and Partners in Project
Green's strategic objectives.
