senior staff and external legal counsel, the staff-recommended Stage 2 LRT
proponent, TRANSITNEXT, to construct and maintain the north-south Trillium Line;
and
WHEREAS members of the public, transit users, media and Councillors have raised
concerns with the effectiveness of the procurement and decision-making process
that resulted in the staff recommendation to Council; and
WHEREAS staff have since
confirmed that the bid put forward by TRANSITNEXT did not meet the 70% minimum
technical requirement as set out in the Request for Proposal process; and
WHEREAS on January
23rd, 2020, staff released the October 3rd and October 23rd
Technical Evaluation Committee’s Consensus presentation for the Trillium Line South
Extension which revealed significant technical deficiencies in the bid put
forward by the preferred proponent TRANSITNEXT; and
WHEREAS the release of
this information has further eroded the public’s confidence in the procurement and

the Trillium Line Extension; and

decision-making processes; and
WHEREAS the Auditor
General shall not call into question or review the merits of the policies and
objectives of Council; and
WHEREAS Council is
accountable to the public and therefore should explore all options to restore
public trust;
THEREFORE FURTHER
RESOLVED that, at its meeting of February 26,
