","agendaItemSummary":"Since July 2023, CreateTO, Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM), Toronto Shelter and Support Services (TSSS) and the Indigenous Affairs Office have worked collaboratively with the 2-Spirited People of the 1st Nations (\"2-Spirits\") in identifying potential sites for Toronto's first purpose built emergency shelter for 2SLGBTQIA+ Indigenous individuals seeking shelter or fleeing violence.
\r\n\r\n
The City-owned property at 996 Woodbine Avenue (the \"Property\") has been identified as the preferred site, and 2-Spirits is proposing to construct and operate an 11-bed emergency shelter to meet the unique needs of Toronto's 2SLGBTQIA+ Indigenous community. The proposed emergency shelter includes an integrated transitional housing component, as well as 24/7/365 onsite staff to provide culturally appropriate supports.
\r\n\r\n
To support 2-Spirits' initiative, as an effort to forward the City's commitments set out in the City's Reconciliation Action Plan 2022-2032 (RAP), and to address the critical need for additional 2SLGBTQIA+ shelter space and transitional housing, City staff are seeking Council authority to transfer a portion of the Property to 2-Spirits for nominal consideration.
\r\n\r\n
2-Spirits is a Toronto based Indigenous community organization offering a wide range of social services and supports within Toronto and is a member of Toronto Aboriginal Support Services Council. 2-Spirits has been in operation for over 30 years providing support to the Indigenous and Two Spirit community and leads and operates a Toronto Community Crisis Service team in partnership with Social Development, Finance and Administration.

It was acquired in August 1996 by the former City of Scarborough in partnership with the former Scarborough Board of Education to develop a new elementary school and municipal park. The site is well served by existing and planned transit options and is within the Council-adopted Scarborough Centre Station Protected Major Transit Station Area.
\r\n\r\n
The site is currently developed with low-rise, non-residential buildings initially intended for light industrial uses. The property currently contains 55 commercial units, including active leases with market-rate tenants and below-market-rate tenants, along with City divisions, agencies, and corporations.
\r\n\r\n
In November 2021, City Council directed staff, in consultation with CreateTO and in collaboration with TDSB, to create a Development Master Plan for the site. City Council direction included advancing Official Plan and/or Zoning By-law Amendments to allow a mixed-use development to achieve multiple city-building outcomes. These outcomes include:
\r\n\r\n
-Constructing a new public school;
\r\n-Creating a large park;
\r\n-Building new affordable housing; and
\r\n-Establishing a permanent community hub for local not-for-profit organizations.
\r\n\r\n
In response to City Council direction, CreateTO (on behalf of the City of Toronto), and TLC (on behalf of TDSB) have established a Working Committee and developed a joint and non-binding Project Charter to advance a Development Master Plan and Conceptual Phasing Strategy. The Working Committee includes representatives from the following City of Toronto divisions: City Planning; Development Review, Corporate Real Estate Management; Housing Secretariat; Parks and Recreation; and Social Development, Finance, and Administration.
\r\n\r\n
The Development Master Plan and Conceptual Phasing Strategy have been developed with a view to minimize impacts on existing Community Space Tenancy Policy tenants. Development of the site is anticipated to be phased over several years. In consultation with stakeholders, a relocation and re-accommodation strategy will be developed. This will enable uninterrupted community services for existing tenants operating under the City's Community Space Tenancy Policy and will be refined as the Development Master Plan and phasing strategy are further developed.
\r\n\r\n
This report was prepared in consultation with the Working Committee and TLC (on behalf of TDSB).

","financialImpactWep":"Funding in the amount of $16 million is included in the Approved CREM 2024 - 2033 Capital Budget and Plan. The funding is also part of CREM's 2025 - 2034 Capital Budget and Plan submission, earmarked to address any health, safety, and legislative requirements to ensure OCH is safe and preserved in its soon-to-be vacant state. The budgeted amount is also available to support the work to be led by CreateTO, in consultation with CREM, on a renewed highest and best use analysis and recommended potential future uses for OCH, as well as costs associated with activating interim uses.
\r\n\r\n
Any interim use(s) or activation while staff examine future use options for OCH would result in incremental operating costs, including enhanced security. Any revenues generated from interim uses would need to be considered against the costs to enable the interim use and available budget, prior to implementing.
\r\n\r\n
Implementing future, longer-term uses for OCH will also require significant capital investments to bring it up to modern technological, operating, and safety standards, as well as to conserve the historic attributes of the building. As part of the 2019 competitive process to seek a head tenant for OCH, it was estimated that a full restoration and upgrade of the building would require approximately $225 million in 2020 dollars. Further analysis of options for future uses will re-examine capital and operating costs and any required funding would be addressed through future budget submissions.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has been advised of the financial impacts associated with this program to be considered along with other priorities in future budget processes.
","agendaItemSummary":"The purpose of this report is to provide an update on the efforts made by staff to date to occupy and program Old City Hall (OCH) and recommend next steps.
\r\n\r\n
Built between 1889 and 1899, OCH is an example of civic architecture, a widely recognized city landmark at the junction of Bay and Queen Streets and a National Historic Site. Since 1972, the primary tenant of OCH had been the Ontario Infrastructure and Lands Corporation, more commonly known as Infrastructure Ontario (IO), acting on behalf of the Government of Ontario (the \"Tenant\"). The space was leased for use by the Provincial Courts. OCH has also been home to the Provincial Offenses Courts, managed by the City of Toronto's Court Services Division.
\r\n\r\n
The Provincial Courts have relocated to the new Toronto courthouse adjacent to Toronto City Hall at 10 Armoury Street, and the Provincial Offenses Courts will re-locate to St. Lawrence Market North by the end of April 2025, leaving OCH vacant with no further active uses currently planned.
\r\n\r\n
As directed by City Council in 2018, staff have utilized a variety of strategies to program OCH in anticipation of this vacancy, including seeking a head lessee to implement a long-term mixed-use property management and tenanting model. These efforts were unsuccessful, given a range of factors detailed in this report, including market conditions and the costs associated with bringing the building to a suitable state of good repair for use. For example, in 2019, it was estimated that a full restoration and upgrade of the building would require approximately $225 million in 2020 dollars. Furthermore, given the historic and complex nature of the building, including an inefficient floor plan and heritage status, any future use will need to consider opportunities to improve the leasable area and the need to conserve and protect the heritage character and attributes of the building.
\r\n\r\n
Staff now recommend renewed actions to facilitate temporary, interim uses, along with undertaking new examinations to determine a longer-term operating model and future uses for OCH. Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) and CreateTO have assembled a team to identify both short and longer term uses, in consultation with Economic Development and Culture (EDC), Toronto Public Library (TPL) and other relevant City Divisions and Agencies. CreateTO will advise CREM on options for future uses and operating models, while CREM will continue to maintain the property in its role of asset owner.
\r\n\r\n
Previous work to occupy and program OCH will inform staff's next steps for a renewed approach to this historical asset. In addition, the following Revitalization and Management Principles will guide decision-making related to any future long-term uses and programming for OCH:
\r\n\r\n
-Increase Public Access and Interest;
\r\n-Conserve the National Historic Site;
\r\n-Foster Local Economic Development; and
\r\n-Achieve Financial Sustainability.
\r\n\r\n
Staff will report back to City Council by the second quarter of 2026 on the findings of this renewed analysis.
\r\n\r\n
As a responsible asset owner, CREM will continue to undertake work to satisfy any health, safety, and legislative requirements to ensure OCH is safe and preserved in its soon-to-be vacant state, pending a broader restoration and upgrade of the building once a long-term use has been identified.

The General Manager, Economic Development and Culture recommends that:
\r\n\r\n
1. City Council approve the City of Toronto’s continued participation in Toronto Global, inclusive of:
\r\n\r\n
a. annual funding of $2.3 million (2025), $2.4 million (2026) and $2.5 million (2027), for a total of $7.2 million over 3 years, for the period beginning April 1, 2025 and ending March 31, 2028, subject to the execution of a three-year funding agreement with Toronto Global; and
\r\n\r\n
b. a minimum of three City of Toronto representatives on the Board of Directors of Toronto Global, including the Mayor of Toronto or designate appointed by the Mayor, the General Manager, Economic Development and Culture, and a third (and any additional) public member appointed by City Council.
\r\n\r\n
2. City Council authorize the General Manager, Economic Development and Culture, to negotiate and execute a Funding Agreement with GTA Region Investment Attraction (operating as Toronto Global) in accordance with recommendation 1 and on such terms and conditions as are satisfactory to the City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and in a form approved by the City Solicitor.
","financialImpactWep":"Consistent with the payment schedule of the most recent three-year municipal funding
\r\nagreement with Toronto Global, which will expire on March 31, 2025, City funding of $2,121,600 for Toronto Global has been included in the 2025 Economic Development and Culture City Staff Prepared Operating Budget submission, currently under review for approval.
\r\n\r\n
To align with the proposed new funding level outlined in this report for 2025, Economic Development and Culture will leverage existing operational budgets to offset the difference of $178,400 in funding. Incremental increases of $278,400 in 2026, and $378,400 in 2027 will be submitted as part of future budget processes, subject to the City's financial and resources capacity against other critical City-wide operating impacts. Should the City's financial and resource capacity be unable to accommodate these future year increases, offsets will be found within the Economic Development and Culture Operating Budget. This approach ensures the City can meet its commitment to progressively increase municipal contributions and safeguard Toronto Global’s operational stability in light of anticipated reductions in contributions from other municipalities.
\r\n\r\n
The proposed increases are essential to maintain parity with federal and provincial funding levels, each valued at $2.5 million annually, and to protect significant external investments in Toronto Global’s work.
\r\n\r\n
This report also recommends supporting a new three-year funding agreement from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028, contingent on continued provincial and federal funding support for Toronto Global.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has been advised of the financial impacts associated with this program to be considered along with other priorities in future budget processes.
","agendaItemSummary":"Since its inception, Toronto Global has assisted in attracting approximately 280 new investment initiatives to the Greater Toronto Area, including the city of Toronto. These investment projects have generated approximately 17,000 direct jobs, created an additional 8,000 indirect jobs, and induced another 9,000 jobs, bringing the total to approximately 33,000 jobs within the Greater Toronto Area. Together, these investment projects accounted for approximately $3.8 billion in capital investment. A significant amount of these investment projects (74%) landed within the city of Toronto.
\r\n\r\n
At its meeting on April 6, 2022, City Council adopted a recommended three-year revised funding agreement with the Greater Toronto Area Region Investment Attraction organization (operating as Toronto Global) ending on March 31, 2025.
\r\n\r\n
Subject to continued funding contributions for Toronto Global from the governments of Ontario and Canada at no less than current levels, this report recommends that the City of Toronto renew its funding agreement with Toronto Global to strengthen collaboration and expand marketing efforts, in alignment with the Council-approved Action Plan for Toronto's Economy, for an additional three-year period ending March 31, 2028, at the following funding levels: $2.3 million (2025), $2.4 million (2026), and $2.5 million (2027), for a total of $7.2 million over 3 years.

","agendaItemSummary":"The Waterfront East Light Rail Transit (WELRT) is a City of Toronto priority transit project. According to growth projections, when fully built, this 3.8-kilometre planned transit line will provide over 50,000 daily trips, bringing higher-order transit to support an estimated 100,000 residents and 50,000 jobs along its alignment. The WELRT will provide improved transit options to the Central Waterfront, Lower Yonge, East Bayfront, Quayside, Keating Precinct, and the Port Lands communities, and is an integral part of the future development on Ookwemin Minising (formerly known as Villiers Island).
\r\n\r\n
The WELRT design is comprised of three segments (See Attachment 2 – Figure 1).
\r\n1. Segment 1 provides the required capacity and operational improvements to the Union Station Loop and enables existing streetcar routes and the WELRT connections to Union through enhanced LRT portals on Queens Quay West.
\r\n2. Segment 2 includes the Queens Quay portion from Bay Street to Cherry Street, operating at street level through a dedicated transit right-of-way.
\r\n3. Segment 3 extends the 504A King Street streetcar route south along Cherry Street from the Distillery Loop, extending south across the Cherry Street rail bridge to a loop on Commissioners Street in the Port Lands. This segment will connect to the new river valley and parks being developed in the Port Lands and the planned communities within Ookwemin Minising.
\r\n\r\n
The WELRT also includes the Yonge Street Slip Infill and Queens Quay Extension (collectively referred to as Early Works in this report), which will enable future construction of the project. In November 2023, under EX9.14, City Council approved advancing the 60 percent design for Segments 2 and 3 and Early Works. Segment 1 remains at 30% design until the Phasing and Delivery Plan (as recommended below) provides advice on advancing this segment.
\r\n\r\n
This report provides an update on design advancement of the WELRT Segment 2 and 3 and Early Works. The report also outlines the risks and mitigations presented by interfacing projects, including the Gardiner Expressway and Lake Shore Boulevard East Reconfiguration (Gardiner Section 5), Inner Harbour West Tunnel and Metrolinx projects.
\r\n\r\n
This report seeks Council authority to:
\r\n-Undertake a phasing and delivery plan (Phasing and Delivery Plan) that will confirm the delivery approach for the full LRT and options for early phase transit improvements in advance of the full construction of the WELRT;
\r\n-Sign the Statement of Completion to conclude the Transit and Rail Project Assessment Process (TRPAP) for submission to the Province, to meet regulatory requirements for the WELRT;
\r\n-Request that the Province and the Federal Government provide their share to fully fund the project; and
\r\n-Endorse the WELRT as a City priority project for funding under the Canada Public Transit Fund (CPTF).
\r\n\r\n
Subject to Council approval of the recommendations in this report, City staff will report back in Q1 2026 with updates on:
\r\n-60% detailed design progress for Segments 2, 3 and Early Works, including an updated cost estimate and funding requests, as required;
\r\n-Results of the Phasing and Delivery Plan, including assessing opportunities for early phase transit improvements and for advancing Segment 1 through design and to procurement;
\r\n-Recommended property acquisitions/agreements;
\r\n-Project coordination with major interfacing projects;
\r\n-Update on the traffic management plan to address and mitigate the impacts of WELRT construction on road users, the public and to coordinate construction staging with other projects in the area; and
\r\n-Discussions regarding intergovernmental funding.

\r\n\r\n
4. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with the General Manager, Toronto Water and the Chief, Toronto Paramedic Services, as part of the detailed design of the reconfiguration of Craigton Drive to reduce impacts to the Toronto Water Eglinton Pumping Station at 885 Pharmacy Avenue and Ashtonbee Reservoir at 21 Ashtonbee Road to allow for the long-term operational and maintenance needs, future expansion needs, and to include safety measures in the street design to mitigate the potential for collisions.
","financialImpactWep":"Generally, it is anticipated that the implementation of most street infrastructure identified in the EA Study will occur incrementally as sites redevelop over the next few decades. The street infrastructure is generally internal to existing development sites, or sites anticipated to redevelop in the future, or is required to support planned/proposed densities. The street infrastructure is considered to be locally development-driven projects in accordance with the City’s Local Service Policy and Guidelines. Street infrastructure that is external to development sites, such as the reconfiguration of Craigton Drive or reconstruction of Civic Road, may be delivered as future City capital projects where the improvements are not able to be secured through development approvals.
\r\n\r\n
The reconfiguration of Craigton Drive in the vicinity of Pharmacy Avenue would occur following Toronto Water’s planned rehabilitation of its Eglinton Pumping Station facility. The reconfiguration of Craigton Drive also contemplates relocating or reconfiguring Toronto Paramedic Services’ Station 21. The capital cost for the reconfiguration of this Craigton Drive, including west of existing Craigton Drive if this is not secured through development approvals, and potential relocation or reconfiguration of the Toronto Paramedic Services’ facility will be developed during preliminary and detailed design and will be addressed in future capital planning processes subject to Council approval.
\r\n\r\n
The proposed streetscape improvements of Jonesville Crescent and Ashtonbee Road will be secured, where possible, through City of Toronto Act or Planning Act approvals, for sites redeveloping adjacent to this street infrastructure. Where improvements are not able to be secured through development approvals, improvements will be delivered as part of the future capital planning processes, subject to future design work and City Council approval.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"The ReNew Golden Mile Environmental Assessment Study (EA Study) was initiated in 2022. The EA Study builds on the Golden Mile Secondary Plan and Golden Mile Transportation Master Plan approved by City Council in October 2020.
\r\n\r\n
The Golden Mile area, generally consisting of lands located along Eglinton Avenue East and Craigton Drive, between Victoria Park Avenue and Birchmount Road, has been influenced by agricultural, industrial, and commercial eras of development. The area became known as the \"Golden Mile of Industry\" during the post-World War II era with the construction of large-scale manufacturing buildings along Eglinton Avenue East, between Pharmacy Avenue and Birchmount Road. Large-scale commercial development generally occurred during the 1990's, replacing many of the former industrial buildings that fronted onto Eglinton Avenue East.
\r\n\r\n
The Golden Mile Secondary Plan advanced a vision for a new mixed-use community with a range of tall, mid-rise and some low-rise buildings to be constructed over the next 20+ years. There are 14 sites with active development applications within the Plan Area. City Council has approved or accepted settlement offers for 12 of the 14 sites. These approvals and accepted settlement offers, combined with the balance of development potential for other sites in the area, are currently estimated to accommodate approximately 32,700 residential units, 57,500 residents and over 20,000 jobs (including replacement jobs).
\r\n\r\n
The EA Study is completing phases 3 (Alternative Designs) and 4 (Environmental Study Report) of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA) process and establishes the preferred alignments and designs of new and reconfigured streets to support future development and growth. The EA process completed to date involved developing and evaluating alternative street alignments and designs for the following transportation infrastructure:
\r\n\r\n
-A potential reconfiguration of O’Connor Drive, along with an extension to Birchmount Road;
\r\n-A new east-west public street north of Eglinton Avenue East from Victoria Park Avenue to Birchmount Road (“Golden Mile Boulevard”);
\r\n-A potential realignment, widening and reconfiguration of Craigton Drive to directly connect to Ashtonbee Road; and
\r\n-A potential reconfiguration of Thermos Road and Sinnott Road at the Eglinton Avenue East intersection.
\r\n\r\n
The Preferred Alignments and Designs resulting from the EA process for each of the corridors are provided in Attachment 1.
\r\n\r\n
Additionally, other corridor improvements are recommended along Jonesville Crescent and Ashtonbee Road to Birchmount Road that do not require completion of phases 3 and 4 of the MCEA. The corridor improvements will ensure these streets are complete streets to support existing and future residents and businesses.
\r\n\r\n
City Council considered an interim staff report on June 26, 2024, which provided an update on the EA Study. The report summarized the process of developing and evaluating alternatives for both alignments and street designs, consultation undertaken on the alternatives and feedback received, the evaluation of the alternatives and presented Preliminary Recommended Alignments and Designs. Council endorsed the Preliminary Recommended Alignments and Designs for the purposes of completing the mandatory public consultation required during phase 3 of the MCEA process. Council also directed City staff to further consult with three property owners in the area on the alignment of the O’Connor Drive Extension between Lebovic Avenue and Birchmount Road.
\r\n\r\n
The purpose of this report is to summarize the consultation undertaken on the Preliminary Recommended Alignments and Designs, refinements made to Recommended Alignments and Designs to address feedback received, where appropriate, and present the final Preferred Alignments and Designs. The report seeks endorsement from Council on the final Preferred Alignments and Designs and authorization for City staff to proceed with preparing and filing the Environmental Study Report for the EA Study in accordance with the MCEA process for Schedule C projects, and requests direction to proceed with the recommended corridor improvements along Jonesville Crescent and Ashtonbee Road identified in the Study as part of future capital planning processes.
\r\n\r\n
Additionally, in accordance with Council direction from Item - 2024.MM23.8, this report also provides a summary of the appropriateness and the process requirements of a four vehicular lane design for the O’Connor Drive Reconfiguration and Extension from the ReNew Golden Mile EA’s western limit to Birchmount Drive.
\r\n\r\n
It is anticipated that the full delivery of all of the ReNew Golden Mile EA streets would be fully realized in a long-term horizon of over 20+ years.

","financialImpactWep":"There are no immediate financial impacts from the recommendations in this staff report. The following describes the review findings and steps to be taken to address potential future financial impacts:
\r\n\r\n
Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy Program (BFPSP) – Potential future and expanded incentives
\r\n\r\n
The review identified opportunities to further reduce basement flooding risks on private property by establishing new and expanding existing subsidies offered under the City's BFPSP to eligible residential properties. A new subsidy for a home stormwater assessment by a licensed professional would be offered to advise on factors contributing to basement flooding and mitigation measures, while existing backwater and sump pump subsidy programs would be expanded to increase existing subsidies and include an additional backwater valve and backup power battery to be installed on the existing sump pump. Preliminary costs, including development and operational costs and the cost of subsidy for these new and expanded subsidy options are estimated at $9.0 million annually, of which $4.8 million annually would be in addition to current program costs.
\r\n\r\n
The staff-prepared 2025-2034 Toronto Water Capital Budget and Plan includes $95.0 million in additional funding over the 10-year period to support expanding existing BFPSP incentives and implementing new incentives. A report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee on the establishment of new and expanded subsidies offered to eligible residential properties under the BFPSP is recommended no later than Q3 2025. The report back is to provide additional details about new and increased subsidy amounts, application requirements, and cost and resource estimates.
\r\n\r\n
Green Infrastructure Incentive Program – Potential future program
\r\n\r\n
There are also significant opportunities and public interest to reduce stormwater runoff on private property, particularly on residential properties, through the potential establishment of a City green infrastructure incentive program. This incentive program contemplates a subsidy of up to an estimated maximum of $5,000 per property for a range of green infrastructure features including rain gardens, permeable pavement, pavement removal and replacement with soft landscaping, and soakaway pits. It is estimated that the cost to develop such a program would be approximately $0.5 million and costs to operate the program would range from $5.8 million to $14.0 million annually depending on the level of uptake.
\r\n\r\n
A report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee on a plan to implement the green infrastructure incentive program for private property based on the proposed program framework presented in this staff report is recommended for no later than Q3 2025. This report will provide additional details to establish and operate the green infrastructure incentive program including but not limited to program administration, eligible green infrastructure features, subsidy amounts, applicant eligibility and application requirements, refined cost, and resource estimates, as well as potential funding sources, for consideration as part of future year budget processes.
\r\n\r\n
Resources and Funding to Meaningfully Reduce Basement Flooding: Future Basement Flooding Protection Program (BFPP) Implementation Acceleration
\r\n\r\n
Based on a preliminary estimate, Engineering and Construction Services anticipates that an additional $50.0 million in annual expenditures for the construction of BFPP local projects would result in an estimated 50 per cent increase in construction delivery rate and could equate to more than 1,000 additional properties benefitting per year. To facilitate management of the design and construction of an expanded BFPP local program, a new BFPP unit within ECS with additional staff positions would be required to deliver an expanded program for consultant management and community outreach.
\r\n\r\n
While additional funding for BFPP local program construction could be considered in future capital budget processes, there are various constraints that impact the completion of BFPP local project designs and require mitigation prior to proceeding to construction. These constraints include easement negotiation with property owners, capital coordination with other capital projects in the same area, regulatory approvals, and possible supplier challenges and disputes.
\r\n\r\n
ECS is undertaking a review of Capital Delivery Models for large complex municipal infrastructure programs and projects with the aim to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of capital delivery (design and construction) timelines. The outcomes of the review and opportunities to improve capital delivery will be addressed in a future report from ECS to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee, expected in the first half of 2025, Toronto Water, in consultation with ECS, will undertake an assessment of options to increase delivery of the BFPP local program that takes into consideration the findings of the aforementioned ECS report, with the aim of accelerating implementation of the BFPP local sewer projects. Toronto Water plans to report to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee on the outcomes of the options assessment upon its completion.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"Over the past several decades, Toronto has experienced severe storm events that have impacted public and private property and the environment. Most recently, heavy rainfall events in July and August 2024 caused basement and surface flooding, affecting over a thousand properties and City of Toronto (City) infrastructure. In response, City Council directed staff in July 2024 (2024.MM20.24) on a range of issues related to reducing stormwater runoff and mitigating basement flooding. This report provides a response to the following Council directives:
\r\n\r\n
-Review of City stormwater mitigation and adaptation programs for private property (referred to as stormwater management incentive programs in this report), including existing, discontinued, and potential new incentives to reduce impermeable surfaces, stormwater runoff, and basement flooding risks on private property.
\r\n-New or discontinued stormwater management incentive programs that could be established in the short-term or require additional review and planning prior to implementation.
\r\n-Public input into what programs and incentives would provide the most benefit to residential property owners to decrease impermeable surfaces and mitigate runoff.
\r\n-Assessment and consultation on opportunities to reduce stormwater runoff from non-residential properties whose impermeable surfaces drive up flooding, stormwater costs, beach closures, and water pollution.
\r\n-Additional resources that would be required to meaningfully reduce basement flooding across Toronto and how those resources should be funded.
\r\n\r\n
The review and public consultation concerning the stormwater management incentive programs for private property was completed in November 2024. The review concluded that the City, through its existing programs, offers a range of stormwater management incentives for private property, comparable to other jurisdictions in North America. However, the public consultation revealed interest in additional incentives, specifically in a new green infrastructure incentive program to help property owners reduce impermeable surfaces and install green infrastructure features at ground level.
\r\n\r\n
Staff conclude there is merit to further consider the establishment of a new green infrastructure incentive program. Such a program would supplement existing City stormwater management incentive programs by providing new subsidies to property owners to install green infrastructure, reduce impermeable surfaces, thereby reducing stormwater runoff on private property. Additional review and planning are required to develop details for a new green infrastructure incentive program prior to seeking Council approval. This report recommends that the Environment, Climate and Forestry Division, in consultation with Toronto Water, Transportation Services and other relevant City divisions, report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee no later than Q3 2025 on a plan to implement such a program.
\r\n\r\n
Staff also reviewed the City's existing Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy Program (BFPSP) and gathered input on three options for new and expanded subsidies that could potentially be offered by the BFPSP:
\r\n-A new subsidy for home stormwater assessments by a licenced professional.
\r\n-An increase in the existing backwater valve subsidy amount to subsidize the cost of two backwater valves.
\r\n-An increase in the existing sump pump subsidy amount to subsidize the cost of backup power.
\r\n\r\n
The public consultation revealed interest in the above BFPSP subsidy options, which would help to further reduce basement flooding risks for eligible residential properties. Additional review and assessment of the options is required before seeking Council approval. Staff recommend a report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee no later than Q3 2025 that provides more details on the potential establishment of the new and expanded subsidy options under the BFPSP.
\r\n\r\n
With respect to opportunities to reduce stormwater runoff on non-residential properties, this report refers to consultation undertaken by the Office of the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer in fall 2024 with commercial sector representatives and other interested parties in consideration of a potential commercial parking levy (CPL) which included discussions of a potential stormwater “surcharge” or “levy” that could be applied based on the impermeable surface area on commercial properties that would also be subject to the CPL.
\r\n\r\n
Staff recommend indefinitely suspending further consideration and/or engagement on a stormwater charge based on the feedback received as part of the CPL consultation sessions, the feedback received through previous City consultations on a potential stormwater charge, and in recognition of the recommendation to report back to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee on a plan to implement a green infrastructure incentive program for private property to help reduce stormwater runoff.
\r\n\r\n
Staff also recommend indefinitely suspending further consideration and/or engagement on a potential water service charge based on the feedback received through the City’s public consultation on a water service charge (and stormwater charge) in spring 2024, prior to the consultation being paused in April 2024 to consider alignment of a potential stormwater charge with the City’s broader climate resilience strategy, a potential CPL, and the City’s long-term financial plan.
\r\n\r\n
Finally, this report presents an update on the implementation of the Basement Flooding Protection Program (BFPP) and a preliminary estimate of additional resources and funding required to meaningfully reduce basement flooding risks by accelerating the ongoing implementation of the BFPP, specifically, the construction of recommended local sewer program projects from completed Basement Flooding Environmental Assessment (EA) studies. This report recommends that, Toronto Water, in consultation with Engineering and Construction Services, undertake an assessment of options to accelerate the BFPP local sewer program projects. This assessment will consider recent work conducted by Engineering and Construction Services (ECS) to review Capital Delivery Models for large complex municipal infrastructure programs and projects, which is currently scheduled to appear on an Infrastructure and Environment Committee agenda in the first half of 2025.

\r\n\r\n
Doug Ford’s latest overreach into municipal jurisdiction is another reminder that Canada's constitution was written when our country was largely an agrarian society. Large cities like Toronto are now responsible for delivering, and funding a large share of, transit, roads, social housing, recreation, and other services residents rely on every day. Yet the province can overturn any of our considered and debated decisions on a whim.
\r\n\r\n
Constant provincial meddling in municipal affairs undercuts local democracy and threatens civic engagement. We risk Torontonians tuning out our public meetings and consultations if the sentiment that the province will just overturn Council decisions takes root.
\r\n\r\n
Whether Torontonians agree with a Council decision regarding a development plan, how elections are conducted, or a bike lane, the level of government making the decision should be accountable. Toronto needs a new arrangement with senior levels of government that ensures we have the independence necessary for 21st century cities to thrive and achieve results for residents. Common in the United States and elsewhere, Charter Cities have supreme authority over “municipal affairs.” Also referred to as “Home Rule”, a Charter City’s law concerning a municipal affair will trump a state law governing the same topic.
\r\n\r\n
It's time for Canada's largest city to have the tools it needs to effectively chart its own course to decide how we grow, get around, support each other, and improve our quality of life. A City Charter will also assist in making the division of roles and responsibilities between senior levels of government and City Hall more transparent and therefore more accountable to the public.
\r\n\r\n
No one can be under any illusion that a Charter is possible at present given such a move would require support from the provincial government. However, it is important to start work on how greater independence could be structured and communicate the benefits to Torontonians, other municipalities, and senior levels of government. That’s why this motion requests the City Manager to establish a Program Advisory Body that would serve as a task force on Municipal Autonomy and Effective Local Governance that would include local advocates and governance experts.

","financialImpactWep":"Subject to City Council's decision on the Report from Executive Committee on the ReNew Golden Mile MCEA, the Development Review Division confirms that there are no financial implications resulting from the recommendations included in this Report in the current budget year or in future years.
","agendaItemSummary":"This Report recommends approval of the City-initiated Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments in support of the ReNew Golden Mile Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (MCEA).
\r\n\r\n
The ReNew Golden Mile MCEA was undertaken by the City to complete Phases 3 and 4 of the Environmental Assessment process that will determine the design of new or existing major streets that were identified in the Golden Mile Transportation Master Plan (TMP) in 2020. The conclusion of the Renew Golden Mile MCEA advances the preferred alignments these new or reconfigured major streets. The Final Report on the ReNew Golden Mile MCEA is anticipated to be considered by Executive Committee on January 28, 2025, and City Council on February 5, 2025.
\r\n\r\n
One of the preferred alternatives to be advanced is the O'Connor Drive Reconfiguration at Victoria Park Avenue, south of Eglinton Avenue East. As described in greater detail in the MCEA report, O'Connor Drive is proposed to be reconfigured to cross Victoria Park Avenue south of its current intersection and continue east towards Pharmacy Avenue generally parallel to Eglinton Avenue East. To support the implementation of the recommended alignment, amendments are required to Site and Areas Specific Polices (SASPs) for lands along the reconfigured right-of-way on both sides of Victoria Park Avenue, and a minor Zoning By-law Amendment is required for lands east of Victoria Park Avenue.
\r\n\r\n
Lands west of Victoria Park Avenue (1871, 1875, 1880, 1885, and 1888 O'Connor Drive, and 1460, 1464 and 1474 Victoria Park Avenue) are subject to SASP 400. The proposed Official Plan Amendment adjusts SASP 400 and provides policy direction to protect for the lands required for the future O'Connor Drive Reconfiguration by encouraging consolidation and comprehensive mixed-use intensification of the subject lands. SASP 400 would be amended by requiring a Block Context Plan as part of a complete application. The Block Context Plan would need to demonstrate how the future O'Connor Drive right of way could be delivered through consolidation and comprehensive redevelopment of the subject lands. Through this redevelopment process, the recommended OPA provides City Council the opportunity to authorize the existing O'Connor Drive right of way lands to be included in future consolidation if the lands required for the road reconfiguration are appropriately protected for.
Lands east of Victoria Park Avenue (1 to 70 Eglinton Square, 1431 and 1437 Victoria Park Avenue, and 14, 18, 22, and 26 Engelhart Crescent) are subject to a site-specific Official Plan Amendment (SASP 582) and Zoning By-law Amendment (By-law 1282-2022(OLT)) to facilitate comprehensive redevelopment of the existing mall. The lands are also subject to the Golden Mile Secondary Plan (GMSP). The proposed Official Plan Amendment recommended for approval makes refinements to SASP 582 to facilitate the preferred O'Connor Drive alignment and makes adjustments to the approved built form map accordingly. The overall development permission (gross floor area and gross site density from SASP 582) are unchanged. Similar adjustments to the site-specific Zoning By-law are recommended, along with the lifting of the Holding (H) symbol. The holding provision was originally put in place to ensure development did not proceed until the completion of the MCEA and is no longer required.
\r\n
City staff recommend the proposed amendments to the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law Amendment to support and implement the ReNew Golden Mile MCEA. The proposed amendments have regard to matters of provincial interest under section 2 of the Planning Act, are consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024), and are consistent with the general intent of the Official Plan. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment for the lands east of Victoria Park Avenue will conform with the Official Plan, as amended by proposed OPA.

","financialImpactWep":"The Payment-in-Lieu of Bicycle Parking (PILOBP) program was introduced in 2021 to give residential development flexibility to meet its short-term bicycle parking requirements, by making a cash contribution to the expansion of Toronto Bike Share instead of providing the full amount of spaces on site.
\r\n\r\n
The recommendations in this report will serve to expand the program, allowing for greater future contributions to the Toronto Bike Share should developers choose to opt-in. To date, the program has not generated any funds; however, there is an increasing interest given the expanded eligibility and awareness around the program.
\r\n\r\n
City Planning Division estimates that the expansion could generate as much as $6 million per year, assuming full adoption of the program and residential development activity continuing at the same pace as recent years. Uptake of the program is externally driven, and the actual contributions received are expected to be much lower.
\r\n\r\n
There are no immediate financial implications arising from the adoption of the recommendations in this report. Any funds that are received will be placed in the existing Payment-In-Lieu of Bicycle Parking Reserve Fund for Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) for the purposes of acquisition of new bike share stations and/or bicycles as determined by the TPA. If there are financial impacts in future budget years, it will be included in the subsequent budget submission for the affected Division/Agency.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact section.
","agendaItemSummary":"The recommendations in this report build on work started in 2021 to review the parking standards in the City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013. These standards were originally adopted by City Council in 2013 and based on a series of studies conducted between 2005 and 2007. The first phase of this review resulted in amendments to the standards for automobile and bicycle parking in 2022, but left comprehensive reviews of accessible parking and bicycle parking for a subsequent phase. City Council directed staff to continue the work to review the accessible parking and bicycle parking standards. They also directed other related work, including a further review of the impacts of the changes to the visitor parking standards.
\r\n\r\n
This report recommends the adoption of a Zoning By-law Amendment to City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013 (Attachment 1) to modify the current standards for accessible and bicycle parking. Minor modifications to aspects of the visitor parking standards are included. The report also recommends the adoption of updated Guidelines for the Design and Management of Bicycle Parking Facilities (Attachment 2).
\r\n\r\n
The recommended changes to the accessible parking standards advance the Official Plan vision to enable everyone – regardless of age, income, ability, race, ethnicity, gender, or any other attribute – to have convenient and safe access to the range of things that contribute to a good quality of life. It does this by, among other things, introducing a requirement that at least 5 percent of parking in new developments be accessible. Higher required proportions of accessible parking are recommended at medical offices and clinics, as well as residential developments in Parking Zone A (generally areas within 400 metres of frequent higher-order transit). To ensure that there is a reasonable supply of accessible parking, including in developments with very low overall parking supply, requirements for accessible parking based on the number of dwelling units or gross floor area of non-residential developments are also recommended. The changes would also simplify the process of retrofitting existing parking spaces to become an accessible parking space. As the City does more to encourage walking, cycling and transit and reduce auto dependence, a greater proportion of parking will need to be accessible to maintain comparable access for people who rely on accessible parking.
\r\n\r\n
The review of the bicycle parking standards in Zoning By-law 569-2013 and of the Guidelines for the Design and Management of Bicycle Parking Facilities was guided by the principle that the bicycle parking zoning standards should require sufficient parking to encourage people of all ages, abilities and means to bicycle for everyday transportation, recreation, and commercial activity. Throughout the review, the quality of the bicycle parking was considered with greater importance than the quantity of the parking. The recommended changes generally maintain the standards related to the quantity of bicycle parking provided. They also increase the standards for the quality of the bicycle parking and include recommendations to improve quality in the Design Guidelines. Some of the recommendations will reduce requirements which were a barrier to small-scale development or were considered unnecessary. Other changes will introduce flexibility for developers to decide how best to support the growth of bicycling. The recommended changes to the Zoning By-law include:
\r\nAlthough the amount of visitor parking proposed in new development has declined significantly in recent years, most of this decline occurred prior to the work which ultimately resulted in the reduction in minimum visitor parking requirements. Since the reduction in the minimum visitor parking standards did not appear to have a significant effect on the amount of visitor parking supplied in new development, the review does not recommend significant changes to the visitor parking standards. However, the decline in visitor parking is worth exploring further as it plays a role in basic building maintenance functions, can support social inclusion for people and other important functions. Staff will enhance the monitoring program to more fully consider the supply of and demand for visitor parking, and to work across divisions to identify ways to increase the availability of parking for visitors throughout the city, where appropriate.

","agendaItemSummary":"Building on the Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON) City-wide Multiplex Study, City Council directed staff to undertake an area specific study within an area that roughly corresponds to the boundaries of Ward 23 – Scarborough North. The study explored the potential of permitting multiplexes with up to six dwelling units on properties designated Neighbourhoods in the Official Plan, and increasing the maximum building depth up to 19 metres, regardless of the lot dimensions.
\r\n\r\n
This report summarizes the work undertaken and recommends approving area specific Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments to permit multiplexes with five and six dwelling units (also referred to as fiveplexes and sixplexes, respectively) in all residential zones within the study area. The proposed amendments build on the existing city-wide multiplex permissions for up to four units, and do not include changes to built form performance standards. This study is a significant pilot which brings forward permissions to expand city-wide multiplex dwelling unit permissions from four to six units within a single residential home. This is one of 54 actions in Toronto's 2023 Housing Action Plan (HAP), which seeks to increase the housing supply within complete, inclusive, and sustainable communities with critical infrastructure to support growth. The new homes enabled by the HAP will contribute to the provincial housing target of 285,000 new homes in Toronto by 2031.
\r\n\r\n
As part of the City’s commitments under the federal Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF), the City has committed to permit more low-rise, multi-unit housing development through as-of-right zoning by-laws in Neighbourhoods, including permissions for residential buildings with up to six dwelling units. Adoption of the recommendations in this report marks a significant milestone towards meeting this commitment in 2025.
\r\n\r\n
The recommended amendments are consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement 2024 and also in keeping with the recently adopted new Chapter 1 to the Official Plan vision, which aims to eliminate disparities, prioritize climate action, and become the world’s most inclusive city.
\r\n\r\n
The Ward 23 Multiplex Study consisted of a work program that included a jurisdictional scan of multiplex permissions in other cities; a detailed review of multiplex development applications submitted to the city; a three-phased analysis prepared in consultation with ReHousing; and engagement with local residents and industry professionals. The key findings of the above streams of work were analyzed and informed the recommended Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments.
\r\n\r\n
Expanding the multiplex permissions will increase new low-rise housing options for Torontonians in Ward 23. New residents in low-rise neighbourhoods can help stabilize declining populations, optimize the use of existing infrastructure, and support local retail establishments and services. While it is anticipated that most multiplex units will be delivered as market rental housing, they would provide ground-related alternatives, adding to the range of housing in Toronto’s low-rise, mid-rise, and tall building types. Additionally, these new permissions could unlock additional opportunities for individuals to access funding and low interest rate loans for housing projects through the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). While the proposed amendments will expand the planning permission for up to six units, this report also details potential challenges to their implementation beyond simply adjusting the zoning permissions. These issues, and other lessons learned through the Ward 23 Multiplex Study, will inform ongoing work being undertaken by City Planning and other Divisions to permit and promote multiplexes city-wide.

It also supports the development of complete, low-carbon and climate-resilient communities that are affordable, inclusive, equitable and diverse. The recommendations in this report will help satisfy the conditions set out in the City’s application under the HAF, as this initiative responds directly to the Federal request that municipalities consider increasing the minimum allowable density and minimum allowable height within walking distance to transit. This funding would assist a number of initiatives that support and expedite delivery of the HousingTO Plan and Housing Action Plan.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact Section.
","agendaItemSummary":"For over two decades, Toronto’s Avenues have been part of the City’s strategy to manage growth and accommodate intensification. Through the Housing Action Plan (HAP) 2022-2026, Council directed City Planning to review the Official Plan to ensure that it aligns with the need for more housing in areas that can accommodate more residential growth. As part of the HAP Work Plan, the Avenues Policy Review examined opportunities to enable more housing by reframing the Avenues vision, policies, and mapping. This initiative represents one of 54 actions items in the HAP.
\r\n\r\n
Avenues have attracted significant realized and potential growth. The City’s Development Pipeline bulletin for 2023 (January 2019 - December 2023) reported that Avenues contained the most proposed projects of any of the Official Plan’s growth management areas. In total, there are 640 development projects (271 under review, 227 active, and 142 built) that account for over 180,000 residential units and over 1 million square metres of non-residential gross floor area, representing 24 percent of the city’s units and 8% of its non-residential gross floor area in the pipeline. While not all of these projects are approved, under construction, or built, this data demonstrates the importance of Avenues in supporting transit supportive growth.
\r\n\r\n
This report recommends an Official Plan Amendment (OPA) to update the Avenues policies in Section 2.2.3. It also introduces mapping changes to Map 2 to expand the Avenues geography and other policy updates necessary to implement the new vision and policy framework. These updates leverage the Avenues as a growth management tool, identifying more opportunities for housing across the city and creating a more streamlined policy framework with clear direction on the type of growth to be directed to Avenues. The most significant changes include:
\r\nTo implement this new vision, policies, and mapping for Avenues, this report also recommends next steps for staff to redesignate and rezone lands along and nearby Avenues. The new policies do not result in a net new development application submission requirement in the new Avenues policies.

Intergovernmental Action to Build More Supportive Homes
\r\n\r\n
22. City Council request the Government of Canada and Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation significantly increase the funding available under the new Affordable Housing Fund – Rapid Housing Sub-stream to at minimum $1.5 billion each year from 2025 to 2029, and make enhancements to the program based on successful elements of the former Rapid Housing Initiative, including:
\r\n\r\n
a. Providing guaranteed Cities Stream allocations to large municipalities, including Toronto, reflective of levels of need and demonstrated demand from prior rounds of the program and as part of the City’s request for a Canada-Ontario-Toronto Builds portfolio of funding and financing;
\r\n\r\n
b. Streamline and simplify application requirements for large municipalities recognizing their experience and track record of delivering affordable homes under prior rounds of Rapid Housing Initiative; and
\r\n\r\n
c. Allowing municipalities to submit applications on behalf of non-profit housing organizations in their jurisdiction to enhance their chances of success under the program.
\r\n\r\n
23. City Council request the Province of Ontario to expand on its commitment to partner with the City of Toronto on supportive housing by providing a three-year allocation of $60 million in operating funding for support services beginning in 2025, to ensure residents of over 2,000 supportive homes have access to health and social supports and enable approximately 400 new supportive homes currently under construction to open in 2025 and 2026.
","financialImpactWep":"The Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI) had been a successful federal program for building new rent-geared-to-income and supportive homes for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness in Toronto. The City and its partners have received $610.8 million in grant funding through the program, to build over 1,500 new affordable homes. Supportive housing offers a more cost-effective response to homelessness than emergency shelter and reduces downstream public expenses in the health and justice systems.
\r\n\r\n
New Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) – Rapid Housing Sub-Stream Application
\r\n\r\n
Unlike the former RHI, the new AHF Rapid Housing Sub-stream does not provide Toronto with a guaranteed allocation of capital funding to build a minimum number of new rent-geared-to-income and supportive homes. To receive any funding under this new program, the City must submit a complete application and compete with other jurisdictions and housing providers across the country through a first-come first-served application process. CMHC has also significantly reduced funding available under this program. Whereas RHI provided $1 billion in 2020, and $1.5 billion in each of 2021 and 2022, the new Rapid housing Sub-stream provides $963 million over five years from 2025-2029.
\r\n\r\n
To successfully compete under the new Rapid Housing Sub-stream, the City must immediately advance projects through pre-development due diligence including completing site and servicing diligence, environmental assessments, design development, preliminary costing, and planning approvals. The Housing Secretariat has sufficient funding available within its approved 10-Year Capital Budget to allocate up to $850,000 to undertake this due diligence for potential development sites with no net new budget impact. For projects approved by CMHC, the City will recover funds expended on these activities.
\r\n\r\n
In addition to the AHF Rapid Housing Sub-stream, the projects may be eligible for City incentives under the Rental Housing Supply Program, including exemptions from fees and charges and property tax exemptions.
\r\n\r\n
Purchase Order Amendments at 65 Dundas Street East
\r\n\r\n
The City purchased the former shelter hotel at 65 Dundas St. E. in 2022 with RHI funds to create 280 new permanent affordable rental homes, including homes with supports, in the Downtown East. Renovations on Phase 1 of the project were completed in summer 2024 and Phase 2 is ongoing. To fund the ongoing work, this report recommends an Amendment of Purchase Order 6054523, issued to Govan Brown Associates Limited in the amount of $10,562,651 net of all taxes ($10,748,554 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries). This amendment will increase the contract value from $51,857,637 net of all taxes ($52,770,331 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries) to $62,420,288 net of all taxes ($63,518,885 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries). Funding for 2025 is included in Housing Secretariat’s 2025-2034 Capital Plan. Additional details are described in Table 1.
\r\n\r\n
This amendment is being requested due to a contractual obligation of the standard Construction Management contract (construction agreement template CCDC5B) frequently used in the construction sector. The amendment at this juncture in the project is a standard component of finalizing the contract terms to exercise the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) option or to convert the remainder of the executable work to a Stipulated Sum contract. The need for the amendment was anticipated from the outset of the project, as it is a part of the normal course of the Construction Management method of project delivery. Funding to facilitate this amendment was anticipated and allocated in the Housing Secretariat’s approved Capital Plan. The additional cost represents current market rates as part of the open-book pricing requirements of the contract.

Property Tax Exemptions for Previously Approved Affordable and Supportive Housing Projects
\r\n\r\n
This report requests City Council approval of property tax exemptions for affordable rental homes in previously approved housing projects that are in development and expected to reach completion in 2025 and 2026. The table below summarizes the estimated net present value of these property tax exemptions at $6.804 Million. This amount is not a direct payment but rather forgone revenues that the City waives to support the ongoing affordability of these new homes.

Intergovernmental Partnerships to Build Supportive Housing and Relieve Pressure on the City’s Shelter System
\r\n\r\n
Housing is the solution to homelessness, and thousands of new rent-geared-to-income and supportive homes are urgently needed to relieve pressure on the City’s shelter system, and support residents living outside to move inside. The City has taken advantage of the available opportunities provided by the federal and provincial governments to create supportive housing opportunities for individuals exiting shelters. Since 2020, 3,880 supportive housing opportunities have been secured, including 1,763 net new supportive homes. However, the City does not have the financial capacity to respond to this crisis alone and requires capital funding from the federal and provincial governments, and ongoing operating funding for housing benefits and support services from the province, to achieve City Council’s target of approving 18,000 supportive homes by 2030.
\r\n\r\n
This report and its recommendations request the federal government reintroduce key elements of the Rapid Housing Initiative that provided guaranteed allocations of capital grant funding to municipalities, including Toronto, enabling the City to move ahead with supportive housing developments with certainty and speed. Whereas the Rapid Housing Initiative made $4 billion available in the three-year period from 2020-2022, the new Rapid Housing Sub-stream only offers $963 million over the next five years. This reduction in investment comes at a time when the homelessness and housing crisis persists, and Housing First delivered through supportive housing is recognized as the best solution to chronic homelessness and encampments.
\r\n\r\n
In 2023, the province announced a three-year commitment of $48 million to the City for supportive housing through the Homelessness Prevention Program (HPP). This contribution continues to provide wrap-around support services to residents of over 2,000 supportive homes completed since 2020. This report requests the Province renew this commitment and add an additional $12 million in operating funding under the HPP for a total $60 million commitment for three years beginning in 2025. These funds are required to provide ongoing supports in completed projects and enable supportive housing developments under construction to open with the wrap-around supports needed to support residents exiting homelessness to achieve housing stability and improve their well-being.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"The City of Toronto has taken an increased role in the creation of new supportive and rent-geared-to-income (RGI) homes for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, particularly since the adoption of the HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan (HousingTO Plan) and as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite increased action and investments, Toronto’s housing and homelessness crises have worsened. Deeply affordable rental housing is at risk of being lost, and difficult and volatile economic conditions have made the construction of new housing, particularly RGI, supportive, affordable rental homes, more challenging. The shortage of supportive homes, inadequacy of social assistance rates, and need for greater mental health and social supports is illustrated most starkly by the rising number of encampments in Toronto.
\r\n\r\n
Concerted action and investment from all orders of government and the private, health, and social services sectors is needed to respond to these crises. Despite this growing need, federal and provincial investment in measures proven to be most effective – new supportive housing, mental health and social supports, and higher social assistance rates that match the cost of living – have not kept pace.
\r\n\r\n
This report provides a summary of the City’s progress in creating new supportive homes, and requests authorities needed to complete existing in-flight developments creating more than 700 RGI and supportive homes and to advance new projects through an application for funding under a revised federal program to build more RGI and supportive homes.
\r\n\r\n
On November 14, 2024, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) announced changes to the Affordable Housing Fund (AHF), including the creation of a new permanent Rapid Housing Sub-stream. CMHC also announced that $963 million was being made available over five years (2025-2029) across Canada under this new program. The program replaces the former Rapid Housing Initiative (RHI), which was delivered through three phases between 2020 and 2022, for a total of $4 billion over three years nationally. The RHI supported the creation of rent-geared-to-income and supportive homes for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, by providing capital grant funding to eligible projects covering up to 100 percent of capital costs. The City of Toronto and its Indigenous and non-profit housing partners received $610.8 million in capital funding under the RHI, supporting the creation of more than 1,500 new homes. These investments have enabled the City to expand its supply of newly built supportive housing and exceed targets under the first 24-Month Housing and Homelessness Response Plan, launched in 2020 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2020, 3,880 supportive housing opportunities have been secured, including 1,763 net new supportive homes, for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
\r\n\r\n
This report outlines key program changes and requests authority from City Council for staff to make applications and enter into agreements with CMHC under the new program. Despite new limitations and reduced funding available under this program, it is recommended the City continue to invest in due diligence activities to bring projects forward to be considered by CMHC. This report also recommends City Council request the federal government:
\r\nThrough this report, staff are also requesting Council approvals required complete in-flight projects creating more than 700 RGI and supportive homes, including authority for Purchase Order Amendments, authority to enter into operating and lease agreements with non-profit housing providers, and property tax exemptions.
\r\n\r\n
City Council took significant action in 2024 to expand its housing programs to support the creation of a range of new rental homes, including the launch of a new Community Housing Pre-development Fund to support community housing providers with early due diligence, and approval of a new Rental Housing Supply Program offering funding and incentives to a range of rental homes. The City acting alone cannot address the housing and homelessness crises, particularly for the more than 12,000 Toronto residents currently experiencing homelessness. A whole-of-government and whole-of-community response is needed to effectively respond. This must include new and enhanced policy, program, and funding tools at the federal and provincial levels that are effectively designed and adequately scaled to meet the depth of need, and investment in upstream interventions such as social assistance programs and access to mental health and social services, to prevent more households from falling into poverty, housing precarity, and homelessness.

\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"The focus on preserving the existing supply of rental homes is critical to realizing progress on Toronto’s housing goals. In the Toronto region (Census Metropolitan Area) 18 lower-rent market homes were estimated lost for each new affordable rental home built during the decade preceding 2021. Some of these rental homes are lost due to market pressures that drive rents well above affordable levels, some are converted to short-term rental opportunities, while other older properties are being demolished for intensification and redevelopment purposes, particularly in core, and near transit expansion areas.
\r\n\r\n
The City’s Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition (MURA) Program was launched in 2021 to support the purchase, renovation/conversion and refinancing of rental homes to create permanently affordable rental homes. Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition provides financial support to non-profit housing organizations (including community land trusts), non-profit housing co-operatives (\"Co-ops\"), and Indigenous housing providers (collectively referred to as “Community Housing Providers”) to purchase and preserve existing rental housing properties. This includes grant funding, property tax relief and planning and building permit fee waivers. To support the City’s commitment to truth, justice and reconciliation and create more “For Indigenous, By Indigenous” housing outcomes, 20 percent of Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition funding is provided to Indigenous-led housing organizations.
\r\n\r\n
Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition is implemented through an annual Request for Proposal Process (RFP) to select and pre-qualify experienced and qualified Community Housing Providers. Through MURA’s 2022 and 2023 RFPs, the City awarded $64.1 million in funding to 15 Community Housing Providers to preserve the affordability of some 368 rental homes.
\r\n\r\n
The 2024 Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition Request for Proposal Process resulted in successful proposals from 17 Community Housing Providers, representing 19 properties and over 700 rental homes through the award of $102 million in grant funding. The funding is comprised of $101 million in MURA funding approved as part of the 2024-2033 capital plan along with $20 million from the Provincial Building Faster Fund, slated for approval through the 2025 Capital budget process. The funding is comprised of funds from the provincial Building Faster Fund, the federal Housing Accelerator Fund, the City’s Vacant Homes Tax funding, and CreateTO dividend funding. This funding will allow all successful proposals under the 2024 Request for Proposal Process to proceed while leaving $18 million remaining to support a forthcoming 2025 Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition Request for Proposal Process.
\r\n\r\n
Future federal and provincial funding programs will be pursued and prioritized to support the 2025 and subsequent Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition Request for Proposal Processes, and will be reported to Council through Budget variance reports, Council’s Budget process, or through a stand-alone staff report.
\r\n\r\n
Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition will continue to support the delivery of the City’s HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan and targets in partnership with the community housing sector. Securing long-term affordable rental homes will reduce pressure throughout the housing system, improve housing affordability for lower and middle-income households, and support complete communities. New and enhanced investments from all orders of government are needed to ensure more rental homes are preserved and continue to serve future generation of residents in all neighbourhoods across Toronto.

\r\n\r\n
3. City Council request the Executive Director, Development Review, and any other City divisions as appropriate, to prioritize the review of the development applications relating to Building 4A of the Regent Park revitalization.
","financialImpactWep":"In order to advance the next phase of the Regent Park revitalization, City Council approved capital funding in the amount of $50.7 Million in the City’s 2024-2033 Capital Budget and Plan towards the construction of Building 4A through the City’s 2024 budget process. The total costs to construct Building 4A remains confidential in order to preserve the integrity of ongoing construction procurement activities.
\r\n\r\n
Historically, roads and infrastructure costs for previous Regent Park phases have been shared with the City. Details of future cost sharing arrangements for Regent Park Phases 4 and 5 will be subject to further reporting later in 2025.
\r\n\r\n
TCHC, through its partnership deal with Tridel, will be contributing equity from market proceeds towards the project. This equity contribution amounts to approximately 36 percent of total construction costs for Building 4A.
\r\n\r\n
In order to secure the remaining funds required for the project, TCHC has submitted an application to CMHC’s Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) in November 2024 which includes both repayable and forgivable loans. TCHC continues to work alongside the Housing Secretariat and CMHC’s underwriting team towards finalizing the approval of their application.
\r\n\r\n
Receiving CMHC financing through its AHF program is necessary for the project to be realized and by continuing to advance Building 4A towards construction through approvals, its business case for CMHC financing is strengthened. In the event that TCHC does not secure the required CMHC funding for the affordable rental homes, TCHC staff will need to return to their Board with proposed alternatives including other financing options, a reduction in the size of the building, or a request to seek additional capital funding from other government sources.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) has over two decades of experience in the successful revitalization of its communities, in partnership with residents. TCHC revitalization projects play a central role within the delivery of the HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan, in helping meet goals for maintaining social housing and adding to new affordable rental housing supply. This includes a wholistic approach to pre-development, design, construction, and community engagement and relocation. TCHC’s 10-year development plan, in partnership with the City, aims to deliver over 10,000 new homes in our city by 2035. Regent Park is a critical site within this development plan.
\r\n\r\n
Since 2005, TCHC has been implementing the revitalization of Regent Park; a five-phased undertaking to transform the 69-acre community into a mixed-use, mixed-income neighbourhood. To date, 1,450 Rent-Geared-to-Income (“RGI”) Replacement homes, 427 net-new affordable rental homes, and 3,741 new market homes have been built during Phases 1-3.
\r\n\r\n
On July 19, 2023, City Council approved a Zoning By-law Amendment application for
\r\nPhases 4 and 5 of the Regent Park revitalization to permit the development of 12
\r\nbuildings with heights ranging from 6 to 39 storeys. Phases 4 and 5 plan to deliver 633 RGI Replacement homes (completing the full replacement of the original 2,083 Regent Park RGI homes) along with 2,168 new market homes. 637 net-new affordable rental homes are also planned, provided funding is secured to support the construction and subsidization of rents for these homes. As part of this approval, Council directed that prior to the issuance of a first building permit for each building in Phases 4 and 5, TCHC must report back to Council, through the Housing Secretariat, with an update on progress towards achieving the net-new affordable rental housing targets and towards securing funding from the Federal and Provincial governments to support the construction of these homes.
\r\n\r\n
TCHC submitted an application to Canada Mortgage Housing Corporation (CMHC) Affordable Housing Fund (AHF) in November 2024 for Building 4A and continues to work alongside City Staff (initially with the Housing Secretariat and ultimately with the Housing Development Office) and CMHC’s underwriting team to obtain approval. An approved application would provide the funding and financing necessary for the construction of Building 4A, which will deliver 136 RGI replacement homes and 136 net-new affordable rental homes (272 total homes).
\r\n\r\n
TCHC submitted its site plan application for the first building in Phase 4, “Building 4A”, in December 2024, with the aim of starting construction in the spring of 2025. This report provides an update in accordance with Council direction and ahead of submission of a building permit application for Building 4A.
\r\n\r\n
The partnership between the City and TCHC to replace RGI homes and deliver more affordable rental supply will be further supported by the creation of a new Housing Development Office as part of recent Council approved housing mandate alignment.

","financialImpactWep":"There are no current or known future year financial impacts arising from the recommendations contained in this report.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report recommends amendments to the City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 694, Signs, General (\"Sign By-law\"), to include new regulations for signs associated with Bike Share docking stations (\"Bike Share Stations\") located outside the public right-of-way. Placing Bike Share Stations on lands beyond the public right-of-way is crucial for advancing the City's goals of developing a comprehensive cycling network as part of the overall transportation system.
\r\n\r\n
Currently, signs within the public right-of-way, such as those affixed to Bike-Share Stations operated as part of Bike Share Toronto (\"BST\"), are excluded from the Sign By-law, however, signs for Bike Share Stations outside the public right-of-way are subject to the Sign By-law. Locations outside of the right-of-way where these signs and Bike-Share Stations may be located include transit stations, Park Roads, Bicycle Paths, Cycle Tracks, and other areas that align with the City's transportation network.
\r\n\r\n
To accommodate signage at Bike Share locations outside the right-of-way and avoid the need for sign variances and site-specific amendments, staff have reviewed the Sign By-law to identify changes that align with the City's objectives for bike sharing, cycling, and transportation networks, while also meeting the goals of the Sign By-law. The regulations proposed in this report will support the City's bike share initiatives and cycling network, permitting signage at Bike Share Stations that is functional, compatible with its surroundings, and enhances Toronto's visual appeal for residents, businesses, and visitors.
\r\n\r\n
Due to the uniqueness of signs on Bike Share Stations, the Sign By-law does not contain regulations that are suitable for these types of signs. The amendments proposed in this report will permit \"Bike-Share Signs\" (signs displayed on or attached to Bike Share Stations) on private property, integrate these signs into the permit application and approval processes, and establish specific regulations for their size, orientation, content, and illumination. Signs displayed on Bike Share Stations in the right-of-way will continue to be out of scope of the Sign By-law.
\r\n\r\n
These changes will make it easier to add Bike Share Stations, with appropriate signage, to the city's infrastructure and help create a more attractive and unified public realm while supporting Toronto's goal of sustainable transportation.

","financialImpactWep":"There are no financial implications resulting from the recommendations included in the report in the current budget year or in future years.
\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have reviewed this report and agree with the financial impact information.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report provides an update on the Province's Ontario Line South Transit Oriented Communities (TOC) proposals at Exhibition, Corktown, King-Bathurst and Queen-Spadina and seeks authority from City Council for the City Manager to conclude negotiations on, and enter into, a site-specific TOC Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for Queen-Spadina generally in accordance with updated terms. (City staff will seek updated authorities related to the updated Exhibition and Corktown TOCs in late Q1/Q2 2025.) Changes in the Toronto housing and office markets have led Infrastructure Ontario to revise the TOC proposals at these sites that were previously presented to City Council in April 2022, requiring changes to MOU terms.
\r\n\r\n
The report outlines the Province's confirmed approach to managing tenant displacement and rental housing replacement in TOCs. The report notes that the Provincial approach does not comply with policies of the Official Plan. City staff have communicated this to the Province and have advocated for the Province to comply with the City's policy.
\r\n\r\n
Additionally, the report responds to direction from City Council to assess the feasibility of achieving 20 percent of units in TOC projects as affordable housing. The Province's primary objective of the TOC program is to generate revenue for the Province to offset the capital cost of new major transit projects.
\r\n\r\n
The Province's TOC program is not part of an affordable housing program. Nevertheless, based on the terms of the Value Allocation Framework agreement between the City and the Province, the Province will make a value contribution from each TOC site that will support some affordable housing. These contributions are not available to typical private developments. City staff continue to explore options with the Province on how to leverage these contributions to achieve better community benefits outcomes, including affordable housing. Among the options are to pool contributions from several TOCs to achieve better outcomes where costs are lower, or to provide financial assistance at certain TOC projects to position them to qualify for City incentive programs.
\r\n\r\n
The Province retains sole authority to allocate TOC value contributions. Further, the Value Allocation Framework specifies that the Provincial contribution would be \"up to\" 8 percent of the value of the TOC. While Infrastructure Ontario consults with the City on how best to do so, the Province retains discretion on how it will use the funds. Likewise, the value contributions will not be provided to the City but rather will be deployed directly from the Province to the provider of the community benefit(s) funded by the contributions. Finally, with language of \"up to\" 8 percent as the amount of Provincial value contribution, the City has no certainty what the actual contribution will be, which could potentially be zero percent.
\r\n\r\n
City Planning staff retained specialized consulting services to undertake an analysis of several known TOC proposals to understand what might be required to reach 20 percent affordable housing. Results of the assessment indicate that achieving 20 percent affordable housing in TOCs is not feasible without making significant changes to the development proposals, discounting of land value and/or providing additional direct funding.

The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact Section.
","agendaItemSummary":"As Toronto grows, so does the need for new and expanded public facilities and public realm improvements that support a high quality of life. The Community Benefits Charge (CBC) is an important tool, in combination with other funding sources, to help the City respond to this need and create complete communities, where things like parks, libraries, child care, community and cultural spaces, affordable housing options, and a welcoming public realm are available and easily accessible.
\r\n\r\n
In most cases, the CBC is provided as a payment at the time of the first building permit. However, in some instances there may be benefit to the City in accepting in-kind contributions that support the City's strategic and policy goals and meet identified community needs. The purpose of the CBC In-Kind Guidelines (“the Guidelines”) is to provide a transparent, policy supported and evidence-based approach for considering in-kind CBC contributions. The Guidelines (Attachment 1) are also intended to support consistency in how and when in-kind contributions are accepted and ensure alignment with the City's approach to allocating CBC funds that have been collected.
\r\n\r\n
The Guidelines are based on a set of five principles which provide high-level guidance for assessing a proposed in-kind contribution. The principles are: Complete Communities, Growth Pays for Growth, Equitable Distribution, Prioritization of Funding Sources, and Alignment with Planning Tools.
\r\n\r\n
The Guidelines include a recommended process for considering and accepting in-kind CBC contributions, to provide a clear, predictable, transparent path for everyone involved. This process includes guidance for considering when to accept an in-kind contribution while balancing the various community priorities within an area to make best use of the CBC, as well as a general description of the steps involved in securing an in-kind CBC contribution. The Guidelines also include Capital Facility Requirements, which describe minimum requirements, sources of information, and other key considerations for each of the most common types of in-kind contributions in more detail.

\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact section.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report recommends Council’s adoption of the Thermal Comfort Guidelines shown as Attachment 1 to this report and that Council direct staff to apply the Thermal Comfort Guidelines in the evaluation of City-initiated large area studies, major outdoor public realm capital projects, and large site developments (over 5 hectares) with buildings over 6 storeys.
\r\n\r\n
In a period of climate change, it is becoming increasingly important to protect the quality and comfort of the public realm that serves residents, workers, and visitors in the city. Climate change is causing more extreme weather conditions, and there is a growing need to design public spaces that optimize comfort in four seasons. Toronto's population continues to grow, with much growth occurring through vertical densification. The public realm is an important shared amenity that will be relied upon by more and more people for recreation as well as respite from hot indoor conditions. The design of the public realm optimized for thermal comfort is key in building a resilient and livable city.
\r\n\r\n
Thermal comfort is the measure of how someone feels thermally whether they are too hot or too cold, and the degree of their comfort or discomfort. The four primary contributing factors to thermal comfort are air temperature, radiant temperature, relative humidity, and air movement. The outdoor public realm is all exterior public and private spaces to which the public has access. It is a network that includes but is not limited to, streets, lanes, parks, and open spaces.
\r\n\r\n
City Planning identified the need to update the existing study, \"Sun, Wind and Pedestrian Comfort: A Study of Toronto’s Central Area\" (1990), prepared for the former City of Toronto more than 30 years ago to analyse how development would affect street level sun, wind, and thermal comfort conditions. The update incorporates new technology and software, as well as modern methodologies to ensure data-driven insights. The Guidelines take a Toronto-specific approach with performance metrics that establish seasonal targets. The Guidelines provide a clear methodology to undertake a Thermal Comfort Study as outlined in the appendices, equipping designers, planners, and the development industry with information on the impact of the built environment on the thermal comfort of public spaces.
\r\n\r\n
The outlined Thermal Comfort Study methodology aligns with and integrates the findings of Pedestrian Level Wind Studies and Sun/Shadow Studies, which are required for development applications involving buildings over 6 storeys. While Pedestrian Level Wind Studies and Sun/Shadow Studies are primarily required for development applications, the Thermal Comfort Study methodology, as outlined in the appendices of the guidelines, is designed to inform City-initiated large-scale area studies, major outdoor public realm capital projects, and large site developments (over 5 hectares). For such large area studies or developments, the Thermal Comfort Study assists in organizing streets and blocks and strategically locating outdoor parks, open spaces, and amenities to maximize thermal comfort. This approach fosters a cohesive and comprehensive strategy for city planning, ensuring a more sustainable and livable urban environment.
\r\n\r\n
The Guidelines also feature a Design Toolbox, offering developers and planners practical strategies to mitigate negative thermal impacts. This toolbox helps development proposals address thermal comfort effectively, promoting better urban environments.
\r\n\r\n
Ultimately, the Thermal Comfort Guidelines address outdoor public realm thermal conditions, responding to climate emergencies, sustainability goals, and the needs of a growing population. By prioritizing thermal comfort, the city enhances urban living, encouraging residents to explore the outdoors, stay active, and engage in recreational activities year-round. This dynamic engagement strengthens urban vibrancy and resilience, fostering a city where people and communities thrive.
\r\n\r\n
The purpose of this report is to provide background on the Thermal Comfort Guidelines, an overview of the contents of the Guidelines, how the Guidelines will be used, and an outline of the next steps.

The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact Section.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 3100 Weston Road under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value according to the Statement of Significance and description of heritage attributes found in Attachment 1.
\r\n\r\n
The subject property at 3100 Weston Road is located on the west side of Weston Road at the intersection of Weston Road and Sheppard Avenue West. The subject property straddles the boundary of the Humbermede and Pelmo Park-Humberlea neighbourhoods. A location map and current photograph of the heritage property is found in Attachment 2.
\r\n\r\n
Known as Rivermede, the property contains a detached two and a half-storey house-form building with a two and a half-storey garage, a rear pool complex and pumphouse, and an expansive surrounding landscape. Constructed in c.1930-1931 for Percy R. Gardiner and his wife, Gertrude Gardiner, and designed by renowned architect Jocelyn Davidson and landscape architect Arthur M. Kruse, the residence is fashioned in the Tudor Revival style and is set within an expansive lot that extends into the Humber River Valley. The main house holds a prominent position in its setting at the top of the embankment with the primary (east) elevation fronting Weston Road and the rear (west) elevation contains a panoramic view overlooking the Humber-Sheppard Pond (Crang's Pond) to the west. Views of the side (south) elevation of the main house have also been maintained and contribute to its sense of place within the landscape. While much of the original interior detailing, including expansive wood panelling, has since been removed, the original fieldstone fireplace in the main foyer is extant as is the original wood panelling and ceiling beams in the library at the northeast corner of the main house.
\r\n\r\n
In 1958, 3100 Weston Road was sold to The Order of Saint Basil the Great (OSBM) Holding Corporation, a Ukranian Greek Catholic monastic order, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, to be the future site of their church, school (St. Basil-the-Great College), monastery, and printing house. The main house at Rivermede, which was used as a residence for the priests, became a full monastery known as the St Gregory of Nyssa Monastery. In 1961 to 1962, the former St. Basil-the-Great College School, which is now Carmine Stefano Community Centre, was constructed in red brick in the Modernist style at the north end of the property. At the rear of the main house at Rivermede, is the former location of the Marian Shrine of Gratitude which was removed prior to the sale of the property in August 2023.
\r\n\r\n
The property at 3100 Weston Road was included on the North York Inventory of Heritage Properties by North York Council on October 6, 1997. The original listing related solely to the former Rivermede house. Following revisions to the Ontario Heritage Act in 2005, 3100 Weston Road and many other properties on pre-amalgamation municipal inventories were included on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register as listed properties on September 27, 2006.
\r\n\r\n
On September 6, 2023, City Council adopted item MM10.5, a request from Councillor Anthony Perruzza to evaluate the listed property at 3100 Weston Road for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act.
\r\n\r\n
City Council amended the Listing Statement on November 8, 2023.
\r\n\r\n
Staff have determined that the property at 3100 Weston Road has cultural heritage value and meets 6 of the Ontario Regulation 9/06 criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. A property may be designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, if it meets two or more of the nine criteria.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"At its meeting on January 8, 2025 the Toronto Preservation Board considered Item PB26.1 and made recommendations to City Council.
\r\n\r\n
Summary from the report (December 18, 2025) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning:
\r\n
This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 3100 Weston Road under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its cultural heritage value according to the Statement of Significance and description of heritage attributes found in Attachment 1.
\r\n
The subject property at 3100 Weston Road is located on the west side of Weston Road at the intersection of Weston Road and Sheppard Avenue West. The subject property straddles the boundary of the Humbermede and Pelmo Park-Humberlea neighbourhoods. A location map and current photograph of the heritage property is found in Attachment 2.
\r\n\r\n
Known as Rivermede, the property contains a detached two and a half-storey house-form building with a two and a half-storey garage, a rear pool complex and pumphouse, and an expansive surrounding landscape. Constructed in c.1930-1931 for Percy R. Gardiner and his wife, Gertrude Gardiner, and designed by renowned architect Jocelyn Davidson and landscape architect Arthur M. Kruse, the residence is fashioned in the Tudor Revival style and is set within an expansive lot that extends into the Humber River Valley. The main house holds a prominent position in its setting at the top of the embankment with the primary (east) elevation fronting Weston Road and the rear (west) elevation contains a panoramic view overlooking the Humber-Sheppard Pond (Crang's Pond) to the west. Views of the side (south) elevation of the main house have also been maintained and contribute to its sense of place within the landscape. While much of the original interior detailing, including expansive wood panelling, has since been removed, the original fieldstone fireplace in the main foyer is extant as is the original wood panelling and ceiling beams in the library at the northeast corner of the main house.
\r\n\r\n
In 1958, 3100 Weston Road was sold to The Order of Saint Basil the Great (OSBM) Holding Corporation, a Ukranian Greek Catholic monastic order, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, to be the future site of their church, school (St. Basil-the-Great College), monastery, and printing house. The main house at Rivermede, which was used as a residence for the priests, became a full monastery known as the St Gregory of Nyssa Monastery. In 1961-62, the former St. Basil-the-Great College School, which is now Carmine Stefano Community Centre, was constructed in red brick in the Modernist style at the north end of the property. At the rear of the main house at Rivermede, is the former location of the Marian Shrine of Gratitude which was removed prior to the sale of the property in August 2023.
\r\n\r\n
The property at 3100 Weston Road was included on the North York Inventory of Heritage Properties by North York Council on October 6, 1997. The original listing related solely to the former Rivermede house. Following revisions to the Ontario Heritage Act in 2005, 3100 Weston Road and many other properties on pre-amalgamation municipal inventories were included on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register as listed properties on September 27, 2006.
\r\n\r\n
On September 6, 2023, City Council adopted item MM10.5, a request from Councillor Anthony Perruzza to evaluate the listed property at 3100 Weston Road for designation under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act.
\r\n\r\n
City Council amended the Listing Statement on November 8, 2023.
\r\n\r\n
Staff have determined that the property at 3100 Weston Road has cultural heritage value and meets 6 of the Ontario Regulation 9/06 criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. A property may be designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, if it meets two or more of the nine criteria.

The subject properties at 29, 31, and 33 Sussex Avenue are between Huron Street and Spadina Avenue, in the Huron-Sussex neighbourhood. A location map and current photograph of the heritage properties is found in Attachment 4.
\r\n\r\n
The subject properties are part of a trio of originally identical Second Empire style house-form buildings that were constructed in 1879. These properties comprise the earliest surviving houses on Sussex Avenue and survive today as a remnant of a larger Victorian residential neighbourhood that spanned to the south and which was redeveloped as part of the West Campus expansion of the University of Toronto.
\r\n\r\n
The property at 29 Sussex Avenue along with the property at 33 Sussex Avenue were listed on the Heritage Register in November 2016. The middle property located at 31 Sussex Avenue was included on the City of Toronto's inaugural Inventory of Heritage Properties over fifty years ago in 1973 and is listed on the Heritage Register.
\r\n\r\n
The subject properties are currently owned by the University of Toronto. City staff consulted with University of Toronto Assistant Vice-President, University Planning in preparing this report.
\r\n\r\n
Staff have determined that the properties at 29, 31, and 33 Sussex Avenue have cultural heritage value and meet 5 of the Ontario Regulation 9/06 criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. A property may be designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, if it meets two or more of the nine criteria.
\r\n\r\n
The Ontario Heritage Act states that structures or buildings on properties listed on the City’s Heritage Register cannot be removed or demolished without at least 60 days’ notice to Council. The legislation allows time for Council to review the property’s cultural heritage value to determine if the property merits designation before the property may be demolished if a building permit is requested.

\r\n\r\n
The subject property is in the Lytton Park neighbourhood, on the north side of Cortleigh Boulevard between Avenue Road and Rosewell Avenue and backs onto the Lytton Sunken Gardens Park. The property contains the residence constructed in 1914 for William Weeks. Inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement, the two-storey house is finished in rustic red brick, stone detailing, and has half-timbered gables. An extended roof slope bisects and distinguishes the main façade, which also features a prominent stone porch. The property was commissioned for professional interior decorator, William Weeks, and is among the earliest to be developed in this portion of Lytton Park.
\r\n\r\n
The heritage permit application proposes alterations to heritage attributes on the property, as shown in Attachment 4, including the relocation and removal of window and door openings, in-kind replacement of historic windows and doors, and enclosure of the rear integral porch.
\r\n\r\n
The rear stone stair wing walls and rear verandah, which was altered from its original design in 1945, and its architectural elements would be demolished as part of the proposal.

\r\n\r\n
Summary from the report (December 13, 2024) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning:
\r\n\r\n
This report recommends that City Council approve the alterations to and the demolition of attributes proposed for the William Weeks House at 94 Cortleigh Boulevard (designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act), in connection with a new one-storey addition at the rear of the property.
\r\n\r\n
The subject property is in the Lytton Park neighbourhood, on the north side of Cortleigh Boulevard between Avenue Road and Rosewell Avenue and backs onto the Lytton Sunken Gardens Park. The property contains the residence constructed in 1914 for William Weeks. Inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement, the two-storey house is finished in rustic red brick, stone detailing, and has half-timbered gables. An extended roof slope bisects and distinguishes the main façade, which also features a prominent stone porch. The property was commissioned for professional interior decorator, William Weeks, and is among the earliest to be developed in this portion of Lytton Park.
\r\n\r\n
The heritage permit application proposes alterations to heritage attributes on the property, as shown in Attachment 4, including the relocation and removal of window and door openings, in-kind replacement of historic windows and doors, and enclosure of the rear integral porch.
\r\n\r\n
The rear stone stair wing walls and rear verandah, which was altered from its original design in 1945, and its architectural elements would be demolished as part of the proposal.
\r\n\r\n
The existing garage, not listed as a heritage attribute, will also be demolished to accommodate a new driveway and motor court with gates.

","agendaItemSummary":"This report recommends City Council approve a City-Initiated Zoning By-law Amendment which proposes revisions to the Woburn Community By-law 9510, as amended by Site Specific Zoning By-law 22913, in order to reallocate unspent Section 37 funds. The in-force zoning and associated Section 37 agreement, approved in 1990, does not include a reallocation clause for unspent monies. No new development is contemplated on the subject property.
\r\n\r\n
It is proposed to amend the Section 37 provision of By-law 22913 to allow for the potential reallocation of unspent Section 37 funds. The proposed amendment would allow the unspent monies secured in the amount of $213,747.92 and currently allocated towards streetscape improvements, be reallocated towards other purposes such as or for general park improvements, including a splashpad within the Ward.
\r\n\r\n
The amendment to the site-specific zoning by-law listed above intends to include what is now a standard reallocation authority as found in other site-specific zoning by-laws enacted after 2013. Namely, the proposed amendment would authorize reallocation of unspent funds at the discretion of the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning in consultation with the Ward Councillor.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"Traffic Operations reviewed Orton Park Road for possible safety improvements as residents had been reporting concerns, especially due to the speed travelled on Orton Park Road. Traffic Operations recommended the installation of a Community Safety Zone at this location, which would enable the installation of Automated Speed Enforcement. Upon review by Vision Zero and Traffic Operations, there was an error in the 2018 blanket designation. Currently, the designation applies to Orton Park Road between Merkley Square and Merkley Square, which doesn’t align with the intended designation.
\r\n\r\n
George B. Little Public School is located on Orton Park Road, between Merkley Square and Ladysbridge Drive (north intersection). Speeding along Orton Park Road compromises the safety of all road users, especially young children and families. Designating the area in front of this public school will enhance the safety for all pedestrians, allowing for the installation of Automated Speed Enforcement.

","financialImpactWep":"City Planning confirms that there are no financial implications resulting from the recommendations included in this Report in the current budget year or in future years.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report reviews and recommends approval of the Rental Housing Demolition Application which proposes to demolish 31 townhouse rental dwelling units located at 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue. The 31 townhouse units are subject to secondary addresses inclusive of 20-38 Secord Avenue and 48-88 Eastdale Avenue.
\r\n\r\n
The 31 rental units are proposed to be replaced by 35 new rental units as part of a new development on the site. The proposal includes a Tenant Relocation and Assistance Plan that secures the right of existing tenants to move to a replacement unit of the same type at similar rent, and provides other assistance to mitigate hardship.
\r\n\r\n
The new development on the site is the subject of a related Zoning By-law Amendment application (24 123646 STE 19 OZ). The proposed development would permit a 40-storey residential building at 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue with 535 dwelling units, including 35 replacement units, 38,806 square metres of residential gross floor area and two levels of underground vehicular parking. An approval report for the Zoning By-law Amendment application has been advanced concurrently with this Rental Housing Demolition Application approval report.
\r\n\r\n
The proposal is for phase 2 of the development block on the south east side of Eastdale Avenue. On May 24, 2019, The Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) approved Zoning By-law and Official Plan Amendment applications for Phase 1 to permit a 35-storey tower consisting of 404 units on the north end of the block and a 7-storey apartment building consisting of 80 units, including 22 rental replacement units, on the western side of the block.
\r\n\r\n
This report also recommends approval of the Residential Demolition Permit under Chapter 363 of the Toronto Municipal Code, subject to conditions.

\r\n\r\n
The Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer has reviewed this report and agrees with the information as presented in the Financial Impact Section.
","agendaItemSummary":"This report recommends that City Council approve the alterations proposed for the heritage properties at 508 and 510 Church Street (designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act) in connection with the development of the subject site.
\r\n\r\n
The development site at 506-516 Church Street contains the Crews and Tangos building at 508 and 510 Church Street, which comprises two adjoining structures, originally constructed as part of a row of six residences in c.1856-1858, along with a surviving nineteenth-century coach house to the rear. The primary structures are a unique example of semi-detached house-form buildings from the mid-nineteenth century that have evolved for commercial use. Since 1994 they have been the home of Crews, later Crews and Tangos, a storied venue for drag performances and queer gatherings. The building is notable for its asymmetrical configuration and details that demonstrate the influence of the Romanesque Revival style. The properties are a cultural landmark within the Church and Wellesley Village and for Toronto's broader 2SLGBTQ+ community.
\r\n\r\n
The development application proposes a 48-storey mixed-use building, the retention of a portion of the existing Crews and Tangos building at 508 and 510 Church Street and the demolition of the coach house to the rear. A previous development application for a 14-storey building with a similar conservation strategy was approved by City Council at its meeting of July 19, 20, 21 and 22, 2022. In both this proposal and the previous proposal, the retained portion of the heritage building is to be restored with minor modifications to support ground floor retail uses. The existing World Pride Mural will be removed to allow for masonry restoration, and it will be commemorated through documentation and two new murals.
\r\n\r\n
The most significant change from the previously approved application is the increase in tower height from 14-storeys to 48-storeys and the reduction in the tower stepback from the east property line from 15.77 metres to 6.5 metres, with balconies encroaching into the stepback. Although staff acknowledge that the reduction in the tower stepback, combined with the increase in the tower height, negatively impacts the heritage building’s scale, form and massing, these impacts will be mitigated through the overall conservation strategy.

\r\n\r\n
\r\n
Summary from the report (December 17, 2025) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning:
\r\n
This report recommends that City Council approve the alterations proposed for the heritage properties at 508 and 510 Church Street (designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act) in connection with the development of the subject site.
\r\n
The development site at 506-516 Church Street contains the Crews and Tangos building at 508 and 510 Church Street, which comprises two adjoining structures, originally constructed as part of a row of six residences in c.1856-1858, along with a surviving nineteenth-century coach house to the rear. The primary structures are a unique example of semi-detached house-form buildings from the mid-nineteenth century that have evolved for commercial use. Since 1994 they have been the home of Crews, later Crews and Tangos, a storied venue for drag performances and queer gatherings. The building is notable for its asymmetrical configuration and details that demonstrate the influence of the Romanesque Revival style. The properties are a cultural landmark within the Church and Wellesley Village and for Toronto's broader 2SLGBTQ+ community.
\r\n\r\n
The development application proposes a 48-storey mixed-use building, the retention of a portion of the existing Crews and Tangos building at 508 and 510 Church Street and the demolition of the coach house to the rear.

\r\n\r\n
The subject properties are located in the High Park North neighbourhood. The property at 1778 Bloor Street West is located on the northeast corner of Bloor Street West and Mountview Avenue. The properties at 1908, 1914, 1920, and 1926 Bloor Street West are located on the north side of Bloor Street West between High Park Avenue to the east and Quebec Avenue to the west. All five properties were constructed between circa 1927 and 1930 and contain early-20th century walk-up apartment buildings The four adjacent subject properties located at 1908, 1914, 1920, and 1926 were all constructed for local builders John. M. Cummings and Robert C. R. Cummings. The Cummings brothers commissioned well-known Toronto architect, Frank S. Mallory, to design the building at 1908 Bloor Street West situated at the corner of High Park Avenue.
\r\n\r\n
The properties were identified as having potential heritage value through the Bloor Street West Heritage Conservation District Study and as contributing to the character of the portion of Bloor Street West which fronts onto High Park through the Bloor West Village Avenue Study. A location map and current photograph of each heritage property is found in Attachments 1 to 5.
\r\n\r\n
The properties recommended for inclusion on the City’s Heritage Register have been researched and evaluated by staff using the criteria prescribed in Ontario Regulation 9/06 and meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest and are believed to be of cultural heritage value or interest.
\r\n\r\n
Under the Ontario Heritage Act (the Act), a municipal heritage register may include properties that have not been designated but Council believes to be of “cultural heritage value or interest\", and that meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining whether they are of cultural heritage value or interest. The Act limits listing to a period of two years.
\r\n\r\n
The Act requires that, should a property be subject to an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application, properties must be listed on the heritage register prior to Part IV designation and before the occurrence of a prescribed event. A prescribed event is a point of time when the application for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application has been deemed complete and the City Clerk provides notice of that complete application to the public in accordance with the Planning Act.
\r\n\r\n
The listing of non-designated properties on the municipal heritage register under the Act extends interim protection from demolition and provides an opportunity for City Council to determine whether the property warrants conservation through designation under the Act should a development or demolition application be submitted.
\r\n\r\n
Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies. Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA) are required for development applications that affect listed properties.

The properties recommended for inclusion on the City’s Heritage Register have been researched and evaluated by staff using the criteria prescribed in Ontario Regulation 9/06 and meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest and are believed to be of cultural heritage value or interest.
\r\n\r\n
Under the Ontario Heritage Act (the Act), a municipal heritage register may include properties that have not been designated but Council believes to be of “cultural heritage value or interest\", and that meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining whether they are of cultural heritage value or interest. The Act limits listing to a period of two years.
\r\n\r\n
The Act requires that, should a property be subject to an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application, properties must be listed on the heritage register prior to Part IV designation and before the occurrence of a prescribed event. A prescribed event is a point of time when the application for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application has been deemed complete and the City Clerk provides notice of that complete application to the public in accordance with the Planning Act.
\r\n\r\n
The listing of non-designated properties on the municipal heritage register under the Act extends interim protection from demolition and provides an opportunity for City Council to determine whether the property warrants conservation through designation under the Act should a development or demolition application be submitted.
\r\n\r\n
Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies. Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA) are required for development applications that affect listed properties.

\r\n\r\n
The designation of Kensington Market (the \"District\") as an HCD and adoption of the HCD Plan will manage change within the District to conserve the area's cultural heritage value through the implementation of contextual, place-based policies and guidelines.
\r\n\r\n
In March 2015, City Council authorized and prioritized the Kensington Market HCD Study. In March 2016, City staff, with a consultant team led by Taylor Hazell Architects, began a study of the potential for this area to be designated as an HCD under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. Upon the Toronto Preservation Board's endorsement of the HCD Study (2017) recommendations, City staff prepared the HCD Plan and focused efforts on its finalization and community consultation including urban Indigenous communities over the past two years. The Kensington Market HCD Study process and the HCD Plan have been prepared in accordance with provincial legislation and Heritage Conservation Districts in Toronto: Procedures, Policies and Terms of Reference.
\r\n\r\n
Kensington Market, a National Historic Site, is a unique and important historic neighbourhood with a distinctive identity and sense of place. The neighbourhood is a microcosm of Canada's diverse immigrant population, where many different ethnocultural communities have each added to the area's layers of built form variety and contributed to a vibrant street life. The public realm and built environment of the area are a staging ground for the activities and uses that also contribute to the neighbourhood’s character and intangible heritage, including its sense of anarchy, inclusivity, and a history of experimentation.
\r\n\r\n
The District encompasses 704 properties. For all HCDs adopted following January 1, 2023, as per Regulation 569/22 of the OHA, at least 25 percent of the properties within the defined area must meet two or more of the nine criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest. In the proposed Kensington Market HCD, more than 50 percent of the properties satisfy two or more of the criteria.
\r\n\r\n
December 12, 2024, marks the 50th anniversary of the introduction of Bill 176 - An Act to provide for the Conservation, Protection and Preservation of the Heritage of Ontario (now known as the Ontario Heritage Act), to the Ontario Legislature, which established the concept of heritage conservation districts as a regulatory tool for municipalities. The Act received assent on February 6, 1975. To date, there are 27 districts across Toronto that are designated under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. Kensington Market is one of three HCD plans that will be recently under consideration by Council for adoption.
\r\n\r\n
During the last half century, concepts of identifying and evaluating heritage resources have evolved. While early preservation work focused on the retention of landmarks and monuments, conservation efforts have expanded to include sites associated with social value and intangible heritage. This shift has also reflected Indigenous understandings of heritage, which emphasize landscape and ritual while de-emphasizing physical structures. More recent conservation practices prioritize the relationships between people, buildings, and landscapes that ground communities with a sense of place. The Kensington Market HCD Plan embraces social value as an integral component of the District's significance, informing the framework of policies and guidelines to manage the area's ongoing evolution while sustaining its distinct identity.

","financialImpactWep":"There is no financial impact to the City. Bloor Dufferin Holdings LP and Ontario Holdings Ltd is responsible for all costs, including payment of fees to the City for the occupancy of the right-of-way. Based on the area enclosed and projected duration of the proposed closures on Bloor Street West these fees will be approximately $266,000.00, including lost revenue from the parking machines.
","agendaItemSummary":"As Bloor Street West is classified as a major arterial street, City Council approval of this report is required.
\r\n\r\n
Bloor Dufferin Holdings LP and Ontario Holdings Ltd is constructing an underground pedestrian tunnel connecting the existing Dufferin Street TTC station to the proposed 33-storey building. The tunnel will run north to south and will be situated on Bloor Street West, just west of the Dufferin Street and Bloor Street West intersection.
\r\n\r\n
City Council, at its meeting on February 6, 2024, authorized a construction staging area on Bloor Street West, to facilitate construction staging operations for Stage1 of the project, from February 29, 2024 to December 31, 2024, inclusive. The developer has requested an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Bloor Street West, as the site has encountered unforeseen delays obtaining approvals, coordinating final permits, legal agreements, and stakeholder signoffs required to begin the work. Consequently, the delays impacted the original construction schedule and start of the work has been deferred to February 2025.
\r\n\r\n
Furthermore, since the time of the original approval, the developer has modified the traffic management plan by reducing the width of the construction staging area, in order to maintain a 1.2 metre wide bicycle lane on the north side of the roadway.
\r\n\r\n
It should be noted that this report is for Stage 1 of the TTC tunnel construction project only. The remaining construction stages will be discussed in future staff reports.
\r\n\r\n
In view of the above, Transportations Services is requesting authorization to extend the duration of the construction staging area, with minor revisions to the traffic management plan on Dufferin Street and on Bloor Street West, for an additional 11 months, from February 28, 2025, to January 31, 2026, in order to accommodate construction operations in Stage 1 of the project.

2. City Council elect to have the subclasses for the commercial and industrial property classes apply for 2025, and to apply the respective BIA special levy rate reductions to the subclasses, all as set out in Appendix C.
","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"This report brings forward Business Improvement Area (BIA) annual Operating Budget for approval by City Council as required by the City of Toronto Act, 2006. City Council approval is required to permit the City to collect funds through a special levy on the rateable commercial and industrial properties within the respective Business Improvement Area boundaries. Special levy rate reductions for the subclasses have been set out in Appendix C, for properties in the subclasses of the commercial and industrial property classes.
\r\n\r\n
The Business Improvement Area is an association, independently managed from the City and operated by local businesses and property owners, joining together to organize, finance, and deliver capital streetscape improvements, and to promote economic development in a district with its own governance structure as set out in Chapter 19 of the Toronto Municipal Code and the City of Toronto Act, 2006.
\r\n\r\n
There are currently 84 established Business Improvement Areas in the City of Toronto, of which 65 Business Improvement Areas 2025 Operating Budgets are submitted for City Council approval through this report. The 2025 Operating Budgets for the remaining 19 Business Improvement Areas will be presented to Council by the second quarter of 2025 once the board-adopted budgets are available. No City funding is required since the financing of individual Business Improvement Area Operating Budgets is raised by a special levy on the rateable commercial and industrial properties within the respective Business Improvement Area boundaries.
\r\n\r\n
Under current Chapter 19 of the Toronto Municipal Code, the Business Improvement Areas By-law does not have specific provision requiring a Business Improvement Area maintain a certain amount in their accumulated surplus. Should a Business Improvement Area find itself in a deficit, be dissolved or becomes inactive, City Council has the authority to collect funds required and liabilities including interests, through the Business Improvement Area levy as stipulated under the By-law. If a board is dissolved and the liabilities exceed the assets assumed by the City, Council shall recover the difference.
\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n
The amendments to the Zoning By-law proposed a 59-storey (216 metres, including mechanical penthouse) mixed-use building containing 480 dwelling units, 4,321 square metres of office space, and 616 square metres of retail space. The former City Morgue building at 86 Lombard Street is designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act and proposed to be relocated to the eastern portion of the site. A mid-block connection between Richmond Street East and Lombard Street and a public open space are proposed.
\r\n\r\n
This report focuses on the owner's applications under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act which requests City Council's consent to alterations to the designated property at 86 Lombard Street and subsection 34(1)2 of the Ontario Heritage Act, which requests moving the building on the designated heritage property to another property. Council requires the advice of the Toronto Preservation Board in respect of matters which may impact a designated heritage property.

Two associated applications were submitted: A Zoning By-law Amendment application for Phase 1 for the northern portion of the lands (for commercial buildings including a grocery store), and a combined Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application for Phase 2 for the southern portion of the lands (for a residential development).
\r\n\r\n
The 2014 proposal for the 40-60 St. Lawrence Avenue portion of the lands was for two residential buildings that were 22 and 27 storeys in height, connected by a four-storey base building. A total of 558 dwelling units were proposed.
\r\n\r\n
In October 2017, an application for a consent to sever the property comprised of the Phase 1 and Phase 2 lands was approved and the Phase 2 lands, now addressed as 40-60 St. Lawrence Avenue, were sold to the current owner.
\r\n\r\n
In June 2023, the applicant made a resubmission in respect of the 40-60 St. Lawrence Avenue lands to permit three mixed-use buildings of 26, 34, and 43 storeys in height on a five-storey base building. A total of 1,166 condominium dwelling units were proposed in this resubmission.
\r\n\r\n
On April 4, 2024, the applicant appealed City Council's non-decision on the Applications (for Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments) to the Ontario Land Tribunal.
\r\n\r\n
On May 14, 2024, City staff submitted an Appeal Report to Etobicoke York Community Council in respect of the Appeals.

On June 26, 2024, City Council considered the Appeal Report and adopted staff's recommendations, including to oppose the Appeals and to continue discussions with the applicant to resolve outstanding issues, without amendment.
\r\n\r\n
On August 6, 2024, the Ontario Land Tribunal held a first case management conference in respect of the Appeals. A hearing was scheduled at this first case management conference, which hearing is scheduled to commence on May 14, 2025.
\r\n\r\n
On January 2, 2025, the applicant filed revised plans with the Ontario Land Tribunal, which plans will be the subject of the hearing scheduled to commence on May 14, 2025.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"On April 6, 2023 as part of Bill 97, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing introduced a new definition for \"areas of employment\" in both the Planning Act and in the draft Provincial Planning Statement.
\r\n\r\n
Several municipalities, including the City of Toronto, have adopted Official Plan Amendments which respond to these legislative changes. The City adopted two Official Plan Amendments, 668 and 680, in response to these changes.
\r\n\r\n
On October 18, 2024, O. Reg. 396/24 was filed by the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing. Subject to this regulation, Official Plan Amendments 680 and 668 will now require approval from the Minister. To date, no decision has been made by the Minister on the City's Official Plan Amendments.
\r\n\r\n
On October 9, 2024, the City of Mississauga adopted Official Plan Amendment 182 to update its Official Plan to align with the new definition of \"area of employment\". The approach applied in Mississauga is similar to Council’s adopted Official Plan Amendments 668 and 680. Oakville (Official Plan Amendment 68) and St Catharines (Official Plan Amendment 40) have also taken a similar implementation approach.
\r\n\r\n
Mississauga 's Official Plan Amendment 182 has been appealed by several landowners to the Ontario Land Tribunal. A Case Management Conference has been scheduled for March 19, 2025.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"Addressing homelessness is perhaps the greatest social challenge of our times. The causes of homelessness are varied and complex and require a whole society approach to adopt successful solutions. That being said, with Toronto Shelter and Support Services seeking to locate a shelter in the Wilson Avenue and Keele Street area, an opportunity exists to create a dynamic partnership with Humber River Hospital. Such a close partnership would build real treatment and solution-based strategies that help the homeless back on their feet and not on the street.
\r\n\r\n
The vacant lands at 1220 Wilson Avenue is a Toronto Parking Authority site that is a non performing holding for that division. The parcel is nestled into a stable neighbourhood and sits across the street from the Humber River Hospital. The lands front Wilson Avenue and would provide much needed green space in the area and provide a valuable gathering space for employees and patients of Humber River Hospital, the students of Pierre Laporte Middle school to the west and the neighbourhood as a whole. While a homeless shelter has been considered for this site, these discussions have been superseded by opportunities with the leadership of Humber River Hospital to develop a partnership for the homeless on the hospital campus, such that a shelter could be built on the hospital campus with an integrated services model strategy.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"On November 29, 2023, the Toronto Parking Authority Board approved new on-street parking rates and extended hours of operation at select parking locations in the City. In December 2023, City Council also approved amendments to the City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 910, Parking Machines, Parking Meters and Mobile Only Zones, to reflect these changes.
\r\n\r\n
Based on technical review, a four-block stretch on Avenue Road was identified as eligible for extended hours of operation in addition to City-wide fee increases. As a result, in addition to a rate change, the weekday hours of operation at the Avenue Road locations in Attachment 1 were extended from an end time of 9:00 p.m. to instead end at 12 midnight.
\r\n\r\n
In December 2024, my office raised concerns about operational feasibility, enforcement, and Green P mobile app usage at these locations beyond 9:00 p.m. To address these concerns and ensure a seamless parking experience for customers, I am requesting that the extended weekday hours be reverted back to an end time of 9:00 p.m.

After working with staff from Transportation Services and the Toronto Parking Authority, it is recommended to amend Municipal Code Chapter 910 to implement the new hours of paid parking operations on Avenue Road.

2.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"Recently, Toronto Fire Services was made aware by Public Services and Procurement Canada through Public Safety Canada that Mobile Hospital Units previously used or retained for use during the COVID-19 Pandemic were going to be made available by donation.
\r\n\r\n
This report seeks approval from City Council to accept a donation from Public Services and Procurement Canada of a Mobile Hospital Unit, with an estimated value of $6,101,373. This donation will support Toronto Fire Services capacity to respond to incidents in the City of Toronto and the lifecycle management of the resources required to be regularly purchased by the Heavy Urban Search and Rescue team, Canada Task Force 3 (CAN-TF3).
\r\n\r\n
The ability for the City of Toronto to receive this donation is subject to compliance with a deadline imposed by Public Safety Canada requiring execution of a donation agreement, and for the City to take possession of the donated goods no later than March 31, 2025.
\r\n\r\n
The estimated value of this donation exceeds the $50,000 threshold for donation acceptance under the City's Policy on Donations to the City for Community Benefits and therefore requires City Council approval to accept the donation. A staff report prepared by Toronto Fire Services with additional information and an inventory of items to be donated is included as attachment.
\r\n\r\n
This motion is urgent as the donor has set a March 31, 2025 deadline to enter into the donation agreement and accept the donated goods. The timing of the next City Council meeting does not allow sufficient time for Toronto Fire Services to both execute the agreement and ensure delivery of the goods to Toronto Fire Services by this specified deadline.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"In a decision issued May 13, 2021, the Ontario Land Tribunal approved a settlement in principle regarding the proposed redevelopment of the lands known municipally as 25 Fisherville Road. A final order issued on July 29, 2022, resulting in Zoning By-law Amendment 335-2024.
\r\n\r\n
Among other matters, this redevelopment (and two adjacent approvals) will result in the provision of new rental housing, a new public road and new public parkland. The various landowners are working collaboratively with the City to ensuring delivery of the new public road in a timely manner such that construction of the new rental housing can commence in 2025. The ultimate construction of the new public road will also include a new signalized intersection at Bathurst Street.
\r\n\r\n
Chapter 415 of the Toronto Municipal Code currently provides for conveyance of the new parkland to occur at the first above-grade building permit for redevelopment of the site. However, this timing would also require the new road to be open to the public, even though construction of the new public road, including the new signalized intersection, may not be complete prior conveyance of the public park into City ownership. Further, the lands to be conveyed as parkland may be required for construction of the new rental housing on the site.
\r\n\r\n
To facilitate construction of the new public road and expedite the development of much-needed new rental housing, the motion authorizes the parkland to be conveyed within thirty-six (36) months following issuance of the first above-grade building permit for the development. This approach will enable the new road to be available to the public and allow efficient construction of much-needed rental housing in the City.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"The Rental Housing Supply Program was approved by City Council at its meeting of June 26 and 27, 2024, to support the delivery of a range of new rental homes, including rent-geared to income, affordable, rent-controlled, and purpose-built rental homes, and build the capacity of the community housing sector.
\r\n\r\n
A Call for Applications for financial incentives under this program opened in November 2024, and an application for the affordable rental and rent-controlled housing development at 253 Markham Road - Building A has been received. This project represents the first phase of a larger redevelopment project. The development is led by The Cedars Non-Profit Housing Co-operative Corporation who will lease the property from Cedars Development Corporation. City staff have completed their review of the application for Building A and it has been approved for financial incentives to create 49 affordable rental homes, and 196 rent-controlled homes.
\r\n\r\n
Building A has received conditional approval of funding and financing under Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s Co-Operative Housing Development Program, and the proponent has until February 20th, 2025, to satisfy Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s 's requirements. To meet these conditions and secure the federal funding and financing, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s requires confirmation that all exemptions and waivers for the project be approved. While the project is eligible for property tax exemptions following its approval under Rental Housing Supply Program, this exemption is subject to approval by City Council.
\r\n\r\n
This motion requests Council to approve an exemption from property taxes for municipal and school purposes for the affordable rental and rent-controlled homes at this project, to ensure the proponent can secure funding and financing from Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation and bring the project to construction start in the second quarter of 2025. The project is described in Table 1 below.

\r\n
The larger multi-phase development at 253 Markham Road is subject to a prior development agreement with Build Toronto, originally planned as an ownership project with 50 percent affordable ownership homes. City Council, in July 2018, previously approved financial incentives for this project under a Home Ownership Assistance Program agreement. However, for Building A, the proponents have since shifted their focus to the development of rental housing through a co-operative. In addition, provincial legislative changes have now provided the development charge relief previously available through Home Ownership Assistance Program, and thus, the existing Home Ownership Assistance Program agreement will be terminated. The Home Ownership Assistance Program incentives approved by Council in 2018 have not resulted in any financial impact to the City as the development did not proceed.
\r\n\r\n
This motion is urgent as the federal funding and financing represents a singular opportunity to proceed in short order with Building A as the first phase of development on the site. City staff in the Housing Secretariat, and CreateTO, will continue working with the proponent on the remainder of the development phases to deliver additional affordable rental housing.

","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"This Motion will give the City Solicitor authority to appeal the Committee of Adjustment's decision approving the minor variance application for 2 Tecumseth Street (Application A0984/23TEY) (the \"Application\") and to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body, along with appropriate City Staff, in order to oppose the Application.
\r\n\r\n
The Application seeks minor variances to alter the development standards (as approved under Site Specific Zoning By-law 1336-2023), for the 33-storey and 26-storey mixed-use buildings approved for this site, by increasing the approved height, gross floor area, and maximum permitted projections of equipment and structures, and to reduce the minimum required parking spaces, loading spaces, building setbacks, and separation distances.
\r\n\r\n
On January 14, 2025, the Committee of Adjustment issued a decision approving the Application, subject to conditions (the “Decision”). A copy of the Notice of Decision of the Committee of Adjustment is attached.
Of primary concern to Transportation Review staff are Variances 3 and 4 which permit this development to proceed without any minimum parking requirement. In a report from the Manager, Transportation Review, Toronto and East York District, Development Review, dated December 20, 2024, submitted to the Committee of Adjustment, staff raised concerns with respect to the Application’s lack of a minimum visitor parking requirement. A copy of the Transportation Review Report is attached.
\r\n\r\n
In order to preserve the City's right of appeal, the City Solicitor appealed the Committee of Adjustment’s Decision to the Toronto Local Appeal Body on January 28, 2025.
This matter is time sensitive and urgent as the City Solicitor has already appealed the Decision to the Toronto Local Appeal Body in order to preserve the City’s statutory right and requires instructions to appeal and attend the hearing for this matter.

Amplify the Need for a New Fiscal Framework - New Deal for Cities - by Councillor Lily Cheng, seconded by Councillor Jamaal Myers","agendaItemSubHeading":"Notice of Motion","referenceNumber":"2025.MM26.11","consentInd":"N","publishDecisionInd":"Y","publishMotionInd":"Y","publishVoteInd":"Y","publishRulingInd":"Y","recommendationWep":"Councillor Lily Cheng, seconded by Councillor Jamaal Myers, recommends that:
\r\n\r\n
1. City Council request the City Manager to identify and leverage opportunities with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario, the Ontario Big City Mayor’s Caucus and other regional organizations of which the City is a member, to amplify and support the importance of sustainable municipal fiscal frameworks that are aligned with the City’s intergovernmental priorities during the upcoming provincial and federal elections and beyond.
","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"As municipal populations grow and demand for services increases, the need for sustainable fiscal frameworks becomes more urgent. The City of Toronto, like many others, faces a structural deficit, a growing state of good repair backlog, and the financial burden of assuming responsibilities that should fall to higher levels of government.
\r\n
The Federation of Canadian Municipalities has long championed the need for municipalities to have the financial tools to meet these challenges. In May 2023, Federation of Canadian Municipalities passed a resolution calling for a new Municipal Growth Framework that aligns local government revenues with economic and population growth. This would ensure municipalities have the resources to address national issues like affordable housing, climate change, and infrastructure. Similarly, the Association of Municipalities of Ontario is advocating for less reliance on property taxes to fund provincial responsibilities and more investment in local infrastructure and housing. By aligning with the advocacy efforts of Federation of Canadian Municipalities and Association of Municipalities of Ontario, Toronto can strengthen its voice and empower our residents to advocate collectively for sustainable fiscal policies that will support a better future for all cities.
Councillor Mike Colle, seconded by Councillor Josh Matlow, recommends that:
\r\n\r\n
1. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to initiate a study to examine redesign options to improve the operation of the Eglinton Avenue West and Allen Road intersection to address the current high level of congestion and neighbourhood traffic impacts, identify necessary resources to complete this work, and brief the local Councillors prior to reporting to the Infrastructure and Environment Committee in the first quarter of 2026 with a progress update and a recommended workplan, such study should include options such as:
\r\n\r\n
a. an examination of the feasibility of including a pedestrian bridge or tunnel;
\r\n\r\n
b. expanding the mouth of the northbound Allen Road on-ramp; and
\r\n\r\n
c. any other physical modifications to the current intersection configuration.
\r\n\r\n
2. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to continue existing work to meet with and collaborate with the Stakeholder Advisory Group on additional short-term operational modifications to the intersection such as signal timing, increased signage and lane markings that will reduce congestion and improve safety through driver compliance and behaviour.
","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"The residents and businesses along Eglinton Avenue West and in the residential communities surrounding the intersection of Eglinton Avenue West and the Allen Expressway have endured traffic chaos, now into its 14th year of the ongoing Metrolinx Eglinton Crosstown construction boondoggle which is billions of dollars over budget, more than four years late with still no opening in sight.
\r\n\r\n
Tens of thousands of vehicles a day use this intersection to commute to and from work in an extraordinarily unique situation where a major expressway empties out into the middle of our city creating congestion in what is in fact, a regional transportation asset that serves as the on-ramp to the Greater Toronto Area’s entire network of 400 series highways for commuters from Brampton, Mississauga, Vaughan and beyond.
\r\n\r\n
This intolerable congestion has also resulted in unprecedented traffic infiltration on local residential streets as these thousands of daily commuters seek short cuts from Eglinton Avenue or are being directed by Waze and Google Maps. The result has been dozens of drivers queued up on the local roads experiencing road rage and engaging in dangerous behaviors putting pedestrians and cyclists at risk as evidenced by the increased number of accidents.
\r\n\r\n
Furthermore, tens of thousands of desperately needed new homes and jobs will be created over the next 25 years in the Allen corridor at Downsview, Yorkdale, Lawrence Heights, the Glencairn study area and into the 905 regions.
\r\n\r\n
This motion directs Transportation Services to expedite the study of options to redesign the intersection which continues to be the main bottleneck and source of traffic congestion now that the Crosstown surface construction is complete, and the operation of the intersection has been handed back over to the City after more than a dozen years of Metrolinx control.

\r\n\r\n
1. City Council affirm that Toronto, as Canada’s largest city, opposes any proposal for Canada to join the United States of America.
\r\n\r\n
2. City Council forward this item to all Toronto Members of Parliament.
","financialImpactWep":"","agendaItemSummary":"For over a century and a half, Canada has had a deep and true friendship with its closest neighbour, ally and trading partner, the United States of America. However, this close friendship should never be confused with a desire to become one in the same entity.
\r\n\r\n
Troubling statements originating from President Donald Trump have circulated in mass media and social media for weeks, which attempt to bring into question Canada’s independence, our distinct culture and values, and suggest that our proud nation should become the 51st state of the United States of America.
\r\n\r\n
As appalling and absurd as these messages are to Canadians, the comments could be used to distract from serious international relations discussions on issues that may have profound effects on our citizens, businesses and economy.
\r\n\r\n
With the looming spectre of deep tariffs on cross border trade, it is now more important than ever that Toronto quash any fantasies that its citizens support, desire or aspire to be part of the 51st state of the United States of America.
\r\n\r\n
Therefore, I recommend that City Council, on behalf of the three million citizens of Toronto, take a firm position against Canada becoming the 51st state of the United States of America.
