  1. South Winnipeg Community CenterShared Governance and Programming Proposal Community Consultations September 2013

  2. Background • In October 2012, RKCC and WHCC and SNCC entered into discussions to enhance the working partnership between the three Community Centres. • A working committee was established to review the relationships to: • improve the efficiency of utilization of assets, • to maximize the benefit to community residents, and • to improve the availability of volunteers. • A shared governance and programming model is being proposed to improve the delivery of sports and recreation in South Winnipeg.

  3. The Vision • To establish a consolidated operational management model to maximize the utilization of community assetsand provide a variety of programs to meet the needs of the growing community. • The Working Committee has identified three main areas to focus on during transition: • Governance • Programming • Facilities

  4. Governance • Although there would be no significant financial savings through changes in board governance alone, a new governance model would benefit community-wide interests for the greater than 35,000 residents • Currently, the governance authority for each of the Community Centresresides with each individual Centre’s Board. • The new model will preserve the voice of each of the community, and consolidate the vision and mission of each community to focus on collaborative community-wide decision-making

  5. Programs The Community Centresalready share sport and recreation participants and volunteers, and offer similar and sometimes competing programs

  6. Programs • Shared programming will improve the costs and efficiency of programming through: • Common Administrative functions: • Consolidated budgeting process, efficient utilization of existing staff, expanded volunteer base, centralized registrations, etc • Shared Operations and Management: • Bulk orders of materials, increase utilization of assets, etc • Value, Variety, and Availability: • Avoiding unnecessary program duplication, provide multiple sessions of popular programs, accommodate unique or specialized programs, etc • The new model will enhance the variety and value of programming • The new model will maximize the use of volunteers, and maximize the opportunity for participation in South Winnipeg Programs

  7. Facilities • It is not feasible to think that every facility can be “everything” • The distribution of facilities across the region is disproportionate to the population. • For example: Waverley Heights has the highest population and continues to grow, (due to the ongoing development of Waverley West), however has the smallest square footage, and fewer sports facilities (per capita).

  8. Facilities • The new model will allow for the redevelopment/reconfiguration of existing facilities • To meet programming requirements, • To increase programming options, and • To generate additional revenue needed to continue to grow with the community’s needs.

  9. Overall Benefits Efficiency • Efficient administration and operation of programs and facilities • Improved cost effectiveness Flexibility • Pairing facilities with the programs being offeredto maximize utilization • Responding to Community’s programming requests Growth • Expanded volunteer base • Improving and expanding the facilities to meet new programming needs • Prepare for the continued population growth

  10. Next Steps • Working Committee will return to respective Boards to make a motion to continue to move forward. • Will begin the sharing of resources and participants for the 2013 Winter sports session • Create a new Identity – logo, colours, and name • Involve G.C.W.C.C. • Begin identifying administrative details to consolidate operations • Formally complete transition Spring 2014
