(Tiny, Ontario) On Tuesday, November 26, 2024, Township of Tiny’s Mayor David Evans and Deputy Mayor Sean Miskimins were elected to be chair and vice-chair respectively of two different County of Simcoe committees. The mid-term business section election occurred at the County Council and Committee of the Whole meeting.
The County of Simcoe’s Committee of the Whole reports to County Council, and has three business sections: Performance Management, Human Services, and Corporate Services. Each business section committee has sub-committees that report through them to County Council. The committees provide guidance to County Council to make informed decisions and work to better the Simcoe community.
Mayor Evans was elected to the position of Chair of the Performance Management business section that has the following reporting committees: Accessibility Advisory Committee and the Audit and Finance Committee.
“I am honoured to accept the nomination for the Chair of Performance Management,” said Mayor David Evans. “I look forward to working with Vice-Chair Richard Norcross, Mayor of New Tecumseth, as we find new and innovative ways to improve accessibility across the County and help to ensure we are financially responsible as Simcoe’s population and need for resources both continue to grow.”
Deputy Mayor Miskimins was elected to the position of Vice-Chair of the Corporate Services section that has the following reporting committees: Agricultural Liaison Committee, Economic Development Sub-committee, Planning Advisory Committee, and the Grant Task Force.
“It is my absolute honour to accept the Vice-Chair position for Corporate Services,” said Deputy Mayor Miskimins. “I am thrilled to work with Town of Innisfil’s Mayor Lynn Dollin on all of the exciting initiatives surrounding agriculture, economic development, planning, and grants, and also to apply all of the best practices learned from these committees on a local level in Tiny as well.”
