Who serves on Barrie's boards and committees

Who Barrie has appointed to its boards and committees, and who has served on the outside bodies where the city holds seats: 79 bodies, 338 people and 1,304 sourced statements. Every statement is one document saying a person held, entered or left a seat — a council motion, a board's own member list, a provincial order, a news report.

Councillors are linked to their candidate profiles. Appointees who have never run for office have their own profiles, listed A to Z. A name is linked only when the record shows who it is: a councillor is the member of the council sitting on that date, anyone else is matched by exact name with any doubt held back, and 65 statements whose names cannot be pinned down (a bare initial, a printing error, a name shared with a candidate and nothing tying the two) show the name as printed.

What this record is not. It is not complete.
Council minutes are online only from 2013, so earlier terms rest on archived City web pages, the bodies' own reports and the news. Council adopted each term's full slate of appointments by reference to an appendix or by-law schedule that the City's meeting system does not let this site retrieve; those slates are the biggest gap, and a body marked here with few names may have had many more members.

Other outside bodies

Source: research passes of October 9, 2026: City of Barrie council and committee minutes (eScribe, 2013 onward) and archived City web pages; the bodies' own annual reports, member lists and minutes (Barrie Police Services Board, Barrie Public Library, Downtown Barrie BIA, Lake Simcoe Region and Nottawasaga Valley conservation authorities, Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit, Barrie Hydro and its successors); Ontario's Public Appointments Secretariat and Internet Archive captures of it; and local news.
Each statement names its own source on the body's page; every one was checked word for word against an archived copy of that source.
