This item contains a copy, modified into a suitable format for easy downloading, of the TTC staff presentation on January 25, 2006. This has been adapted from a Power Point file by stripping out all of the photos and converting the remainder to a PDF. This will allow easy access to the material by readers and very substantially reduces the size of the file.
Explanatory notes and comments about this presentation are at the end of this item.
Here is the presentation I made at the TTC meeting. My recommendations have been sent to staff for comment. The nub of the argument is that TTC needs to provide ongoing projections of the resources needed to handle various scenarios for growth in demand, rather than treating each year’s changes as a big surprise for which there is no room in the budget.
