| 142861 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | 2025 Listening to Toronto Survey | 2025.EX26.1 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>In 2024, the City Manager’s Office launched the Listening to Toronto public opinion survey to gather insights on a range of topics, including satisfaction with select City services, perceptions of quality of life in Toronto, and residents’ experiences interacting with the City. Now in its second year, the survey builds on the initial baseline findings and introduces new areas of focus based on emerging priorities.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The 2025 Listening to Toronto survey was conducted by Ipsos LP between August 1 and August 18, 2025. This year’s results offer a valuable comparison to the 2024 baseline, enabling the City to track progress over time. In addition to benchmarking performance, the findings complement data collected through 311 and other City-led initiatives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of service delivery and resident needs.</p> | 26 | 1 | CMMTTEE | EX | All | N | … | Report | ACTION | Adopted | Main | Committee | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | ACTION | true | Adopted | … | … | … | … | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — |
| 142839 | REPORT | N | Y | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Advancing Affordable Rental Housing in Quayside -Phase 1 | 2025.EX26.2 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Quayside will be a master-planned mixed-use complete community that builds on development in the adjacent East Bayfront lands, and the emerging Keating Channel West Precinct. This 4.9-hectare area on Toronto’s waterfront, located at Queens Quay East and Parliament Street (Quayside Lands), will include new homes, parks and public spaces, new and improved infrastructure, roads and public realm within five new development blocks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A key driver for Quayside is the provision of affordable rental homes by the City in partnership with Waterfront Toronto and Quayside Impact Limited Partnership (QILP). With the softening of the condo market, the City, QILP, and Waterfront Toronto have worked on an accelerated plan to maximize the number of affordable rental homes that can be delivered in the first phase while prioritizing the delivery of purpose-built rental homes on an expedited basis. As the result, it is estimated that approximately 550 affordable rental homes, including 57% as family units, and approximately 1,200 purpose-built rental homes will be delivered by 2030-31. The Quayside-Phase 1 project supports the City in achieving its HousingTO 2020-20304 Action Plan target to approve 65,000 rent-controlled homes (comprised of 6,500 rent-geared-to-income (RGI), 41,000 affordable rental and 17,500 rent-controlled market homes) by 2030.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Achieving these ambitious housing outcomes within a delivery model involving government, private and non-profit partners will require all partners to participate in innovative ways while responding to changing market conditions. The delivery model for the affordable rental homes in Quayside represents another step in implementing the "Public Developer" approach where the City is taking an intentional leadership role in bringing land, funding, financing, and non-profit and Indigenous housing partners together to maximize public benefit for generations to come. This delivery model will include:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- QILP to transfer stratified lands where affordable rental homes will be built to the City prior to construction start. These lands will then be leased to non-profit housing providers selected to own and operate these affordable rental homes for 99 years ("Affordable Housing Providers");</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- QILP (or a related entity) to act as the development manager for the site, and with a construction manager, design and build the affordable and purpose-built rental homes;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Waterfront Toronto to act as the master developer for the Quayside Lands which includes affordable housing, Quayside infrastructure and public realm, design objectives (buildings and Privately Owned Public Space), ground floor animation objectives and sustainability requirements; and,</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Government partners and Waterfront Toronto to provide funding and financing to the Affordable Housing Providers for the construction of affordable rental homes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As the housing crisis in the city persists, expediting the delivery plan to ensure construction can start in 2026 has been a key consideration for all partners. The City, through its agreement with the federal government under the Housing Accelerator Fund (HAF), has committed to advancing major development on Toronto’s waterfront, including accelerating the delivery of purpose-built rental, and permanently affordable rental homes in Quayside. The City has already made progress towards meeting its HAF milestones by expediting zoning approvals in July 2024 and increasing the permitted density to allow for taller buildings with reduced building footprints. The current plan also represents an improvement upon the number of affordable rental homes that were identified in the July 2024 re-zoning application, which was 458. The final milestone for this initiative requires building permits be issued for the affordable rental homes in Phase 1 by Q3-2026.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Subject to the approval of this report, the project team will be able to move towards meeting upcoming critical milestones including submitting applications to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) for construction financing by October 31, 2025, finalizing required loan agreements with CMHC by Q1-2026, and accelerating construction start timelines.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In partnership with Waterfront Toronto, QILP, and CMHC, the City has been able to make a number of significant advancements in accelerating delivery of purpose-built and affordable rental homes through Quayside - Phase 1. This report and the confidential attachment provide:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- an update on the funding plan for approximately 550 affordable rental homes and required authorities to receive and invest funds, including property tax exemptions for the affordable rental homes;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- an update on the results of the competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process to select up to four Affordable Housing Providers, and the required authorities to enter into applicable agreements; and,</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- an overview of how the City will work with project partners, including the Affordable Housing Providers, CMHC, QILP and Waterfront Toronto as the future owner of stratified affordable rental housing lands and funder for the affordable rental homes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Quayside- Phase 1 project will deliver approximately 1,750 affordable rental and purpose-built rental homes through a unique and innovative partnership model with private, non-profit, and government partners. The delivery model, however, is complex due to the interconnectedness of funding and financing sources, various roles and responsibilities of multiple partners, navigating the complex regulatory environment within the accelerated timelines of the project, as well as ongoing market pressures.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The federal and provincial governments, along with the City of Toronto, have recently approved a joint investment plan of $975 million to accelerate the delivery of Waterfront Toronto’s revitalization plan including delivery of new homes in Quayside and Ookwemin Minising (formerly Villiers Island). The tri-partite collaboration continues to be critical to ensure the Quayside - Phase 1 project can be delivered within this unique delivery model and can be replicated for delivery of much needed homes along Toronto's waterfront for current and future residents of the city.</p> |

<p>As detailed in Table 1 above, for the six-month period, Tax-Supported Operations experienced a favourable net variance of $31.7 million. An unfavourable net variance is projected at year-end of $105.4 million. These figures are adjusted for Toronto Building which, consistent with legislation has any achieved surplus allocated to appropriate reserves.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It is important to note that the financial information presented is as of June 30, which is a snapshot in time and the year-end projection is based on current and expected future activities as known and anticipated.</p>

<p>The favourable year-to-date variance is driven by all three rate programs: Toronto Water, Toronto Parking Authority and Solid Waste Management Services, with the favourable projections to year-end mainly driven by Toronto Water.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rate-Supported Programs are funded entirely by user fees that are used to pay for the services provided and the infrastructure to deliver them. Solid Waste Management Services and Toronto Water’s respective year-end surpluses, if any, must be transferred to the Waste Management Reserve Fund and the Wastewater and Water Stabilization Reserves respectively, to finance capital investments and ongoing capital repairs and maintenance. Seventy-five percent (75%) of Toronto Parking Authority’s surplus is allocated to the City, with the remaining 25% reinvested in Toronto Parking Authority’s capital projects, which is consistent with an Income Sharing Agreement.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report also includes recommendations to transfer cost-of-living adjustment/benefit cost provisions budgeted in the 2025 Non-Program Expenditure Budget, allocating budgeted funding to all applicable divisional budgets following ratification of the new four-year collective agreement; as well as further recommendations on proposed changes to the benefits plan for Management/Non-union employees, Accountability Officers and Elected Officials. The Management/Non-union benefit changes outlined in this report arise from a review of the benefit plan changes, following the conclusion of collective bargaining with Toronto Civic Employees’ Union Local 416, and Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 79. </p> |
| 142843 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Deferred Revenue (Obligatory Reserve Funds), Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds as at June 30, 2025 | 2025.EX26.5 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>The City of Toronto (City) maintains deferred revenue balances that will be recognized as revenues in future years, in addition to reserves and discretionary reserve funds that are intended to support the City's future activities. This report provides an update of these balances, as well as their related earned revenues and activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Deferred Revenue</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Deferred revenue, or obligatory reserve funds, are monies received from external parties for specific purposes outlined in Provincial legislation or third-party agreements. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>For the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, the City’s deferred revenues increased from $6,728.9 million to $7,514.7 million. The increase of $785.8 million was primarily driven by monies received from water and wastewater rate revenue, development and planning act contributions and the federal housing accelerator fund.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds are established by Council to support the financial management and operations of the City, minimize annual tax rate fluctuations, and provide a measure of financial flexibility to address the impact of significant unexpected pressures.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds balances increased by $70.8 million over the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, going from $5,610.6 million to $5,681.4 million. This net increase is the result of Council-authorized contributions for capital investments in housing, transit, capital infrastructure, and vehicle and equipment replacement. The majority of the City's Reserves and Discretionary Reserve Funds balances ($5,454.1 million, or 96.0%) are committed to future Council directed activities that include capital and operating expenditures and rate-based activities.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The remaining reserve and discretionary reserve fund balance ($227.3 million, or 4.0%) is uncommitted and available to respond to various unanticipated costs, stabilize funding sources, including the tax base, or for emergency purposes such as extreme weather events. The uncommitted amount represents 1.2% of the total 2025 approved Operating Budget of $18,849.1 million.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are total commitments and obligations of $41,066.7 million against the $13,196.1 million balance in committed reserves, discretionary reserves and deferred revenue consistent with the approved 10-Year Capital Plan and other requirements and obligations. These commitments and obligations are greater than three times the current reserve, discretionary reserve fund and deferred revenue balances, requiring continued reserve contributions to support planned expenditures. A further breakdown of the City’s current balances in comparison to planned operating and capital expenditures, including both deferred revenues and discretionary reserve funds, can be found in Appendix F.</p> |

<p> </p>
<p>Additional reallocations to project cashflows and project costs are requested where project expenditures exceed the current approved cashflows and project costs. These reallocations will allow Toronto Water to continue to deliver projects within its 10-Year Capital Plan.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The adjustments will have a zero dollar impact on the 2025 Capital Budget and 2026-2034 Capital Plan and will align the budget and plan with Toronto Water's capital project delivery schedule and program requirements.</p> | 26 | 6 | CMMTTEE | EX | All | N | … | Report | ACTION | Adopted | Main | Committee | … | … | … |
| 142860 | LETTER | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Efforts to Improve End-to-End Customer Experience | 2025.EX26.7 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>At its meeting on September 12, 2025 the Service Excellence Committee considered Item SE9.2 and made a recommendation to the Executive Committee.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Summary from the report (August 27, 2025) from the Chief Technology Officer and the Executive Director, Customer Experience:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report responds to a request from the Service Excellence Committee to provide information on the history of 311, integration with divisions, and initiatives that are underway to improve the customers' end-to-end experience accessing City services through 311.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>311 Toronto launched in September 2009 as the primary gateway to City information and services, centralizing numerous phone numbers and divisional contact centres into a single, easily remembered number (311). The launch connected existing and integrable divisional work management systems with the 311 customer relationship management system, automating information flow between 311 and the following five Integrated Service Divisions: Solid Waste Management Services, Transportation Services, Toronto Water, Municipal Licensing and Standards, and Environment, Climate and Forestry – Urban Forestry.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This integration allows the public to open service requests to report issues or request City services via 311. Information entered in the service request is automatically forwarded to the appropriate Integrated Service Division for review and action. Upon actioning, integration also allows information and some updates from Integrated Service Divisions to be automatically shared back with 311, enabling the public to obtain updates on the status of their service request, including whether the service request has been addressed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>However, information sharing is limited in some cases by legacy work management systems and business requirements, which require updates to permit the sharing of notes and status updates and/or to enable planned enhancements aimed at supporting the quality of information shared back to 311 and ultimately the public. Customers would also benefit from standardized quality notes that are available for every closed service request.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A jurisdictional scan of large North American cities shows that many municipalities are enhancing their 311 operations to meet customers' expectations by standardizing processes, fostering a customer-first culture through change management, and updating technology to support these improvements. These process and technology changes require inter-divisional collaboration and accountability to ensure adoption. The Customer Experience Division, in collaboration with Technology Services Division and the Integrated Service Divisions, are working on two key initiatives:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Closing the Loop: Focuses on enhancing the quality of information provided to customers and standardizing how service requests are managed across divisions; and<br /> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Enterprise Work Management Solution: Replacing legacy work management systems with modern platforms that provide the technical foundation to support these improvements.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p>These initiatives complement additional improvements that have been made since the launch of 311 to enhance the customer experience, including the expansion of multi-lingual and multi-channel support and proactive customer communication options (e.g. language support for live telephone translation services, introduction of an interactive voice response to route customers to appropriate staff support based on their selection). Additionally, 311 will be providing intake services for Parks and Community Recreation, with integration planned by the end of September 2025 and end of 2026, respectively.</p> |
| 142837 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | AMENDED | N | Western Beaches Breakwaters Action Plan Progress Update | 2025.EX26.8 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>This report provides a status update on the Western Beaches Breakwaters Action Plan, including identification of immediate repair needs and funding requirements as requested by City Council in June 2025. Since then, staff have advanced Council directions on identifying repair needs and consulting with other levels of government on ownership, rehabilitation funding and coordinated investment.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report is specific to the Western Beaches breakwaters, stretching from the Humber River to Ontario Place. Staff will bring forward a separate report in 2026 on the broader dock walls work required across the Toronto waterfront.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In summary, based on a visual condition assessment completed in July and August by Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and its consultants, there are no locations where imminent failure risk is extreme and immediate stabilization is required. These structures were very well built in the 1920s and continue to serve many of the required shoreline protection functions. However, there are five locations, mostly across from Sunnyside Beach and the Boulevard Club, totalling approximately 580 linear metres, where conditions are serious with a high risk of failure within an estimated 3 to 5 years. These locations require plans for repair or rehabilitation within five years. Given the time it takes to design, permit and construct in-water infrastructure projects, efforts need to commence in 2026 on repair plans for these high-risk locations. Most of these five locations are within the length of breakwaters that City staff have identified as likely under Federal ownership. 32 linear metres of breakwater that is owned by the City is in high-risk condition (closer to Ontario Place); however, it may be feasible to remove this small segment (rather than repair or rehabilitate it) as it is a stand-alone remnant structure that currently has minimal functional value. Further investigation is required before a recommendation for this City-owned segment can be made.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>City staff have initiated conversations with Federal and Provincial officials and will now share the findings of the condition assessment. The structures sit within Provincial water lots, which will complicate matters of ownership and responsibility and will require additional intergovernmental discussions.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>City staff, in consultation with TRCA, will report to Executive Committee in Q2 2026 on the status of intergovernmental discussions and with recommendations for the repair or rehabilitation of the breakwaters with a high risk of failure, including associated costs and a funding strategy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The remainder of the breakwater structures are in poor or fair condition, with a few locations in relatively good condition as a result of repairs or reconstruction completed within the last 20 years. Locations in poor condition require monitoring and management plans to inform a state of good repair program. The Q2 2026 breakwaters report will include recommendations for ongoing monitoring and management of the structures. Future reporting will be prepared in consultation with other government partners to inform a shared understanding of the management needs for these assets.</p> |

<p>The development project is an affordable housing project for 56 units under the City’s Open Door Affordable Housing Program. The complainant, the Canadian Helen Keller Centre (the “CHKC”), are of the opinion that they should be exempt from education development charges. The complainant asserts that education development charges in the amount of $184,408.00 should be refunded as this redevelopment was part of Toronto’s Rapid Housing Initiative and the following fees and charges have been waived or exempted:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- planning application fees;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- building permit fees;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- municipal development charges; and</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- parkland dedication fees.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>City staff have reviewed the complaint and are of the opinion that the Education Development Charges By-law (the "EDC By-law") was applied properly, and no error was made in the determination of the applicable education development charges. The complainant was eligible to have their municipal development charges waived/exempted, but there is no corresponding exemption provided by the Toronto Catholic District School Board.</p>

| 142858 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Ookwemin Minising Implementation Update | 2025.EX26.11 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>This report sets out a road map for the first phase of mixed-use development on Ookwemin Minising, Toronto's new island in the Port Lands. In January 2025, the City of Toronto, the Government of Canada, and the Province of Ontario announced $975 million for Waterfront Toronto to advance the delivery of the revitalization plan on Ookwemin Minising. This tri-government investment includes foundational works to unlock new housing, public space, and supporting infrastructure.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Revitalizing Ookwemin Minising will be a complex, long-term undertaking. Over time, City Council will be required to approve matters related to affordable housing, major infrastructure, real estate transactions and land use planning.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>City Council approvals are required at this time to advance Phase 1 of the island's development (the tri-government funded project), specifically for the City to:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Authorize Waterfront Toronto, as revitalization lead, to initiate a developer proposal call process for a partner for the first development blocks on Ookwemin Minising (this report); and,</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Authorize Waterfront Toronto to act as an agent, for the purpose of planning applications, development approvals, and infrastructure design approvals, for the City and the City of Toronto Economic Development Corporation (operating as the Toronto Port Lands Company, TPLC), a City-owned corporation managed by CreateTO, for the purposes of advancing the development of Phase 1.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Current work includes an integrated planning and public realm study and business and implementation planning. A reporting roadmap is provided in Attachment 1. Key upcoming milestones include:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Waterfront Toronto's launch of a developer proposal call for a development partner on Phase 1 lands;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- A staff report on the outcomes of the integrated planning and public realm study for the island; and</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- A staff report on business and implementation planning matters, which will outline the public policy outcomes to be sought from the first development blocks to move forward in Phase 1 and on the transfer of Phase 1 lands to the City of Toronto from TPLC.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In May 2025, City Council adopted the Toronto Builds Policy Framework which outlines the City's priorities in developing its own land, including a strong focus on the retention of public land and creation of a range of new rental homes while contributing to complete communities. Council's adoption of this framework also provides for flexibility in recognition of challenging market conditions, the wide range of size and types of developments that may proceed on City land in the future, and the need for alignment with intergovernmental agreements and shared objectives.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>City staff will report back as soon as possible, before the end of the second quarter of 2026, on the status of the market offering and to provide further details on business and implementation planning matters, including financing options and delivery models to pursue the City’s affordable housing targets for Phase 1, and the contribution of this toward achieving Council's ambitious affordable housing goals for the island. This work is occurring in the context of significant market challenges, where the financial viability of residential developments is at all time high risk given increasing construction costs, coupled with foreign trade risks and US- initiated tariff disputes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In addition to the market offering, work is ongoing related to early activation. The Early Activation Program for Ookwemin Minising will introduce “meanwhile uses” to support the emerging community, activate public spaces, enhance the visitor experience within the new Don River parkland system, and showcase the island’s potential to future investors. These initiatives will help set the stage for phased development while testing new approaches to programming and placemaking. Waterfront Toronto is working closely with CreateTO (as manager of Toronto Port Lands Company lands), City divisions, and other landowners to plan and (in the City's capacity as owner of the City-owned lands in Ookwemin Minising Phase 1) coordinate early activation efforts, ensuring alignment with broader interim-use strategies across the Port Lands. Approval is recommended to authorize required agreements with Waterfront Toronto and TPLC for Ookwemin Minising.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Indigenous community engagement, relationship-building and reconciliation action are central to the implementation of Ookwemin Minising. Building on the City’s Reconciliation Action Plan and the renewed waterfront vision adopted in 2022, the City, Waterfront Toronto, and partners are working with First Nations rightsholders and other First Nations, Inuit, Métis, and urban Indigenous communities to integrate their priorities into planning, design, and placekeeping. This commitment is reflected in the naming of the island and ongoing collaboration with Indigenous partners, architects, designers and consultants, including Trophic Design, an Indigenous-owned firm contributing knowledge and perspective to public realm and infrastructure design. These efforts build on Waterfront Toronto’s Memorandum of Understanding with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and their contributions to the Port Lands Flood Protection Project, where Indigenous leadership has helped ensure respect for the histories of this area and shape the design of future neighbourhoods.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As waterfront revitalization progresses, the City and its partners remain committed to strengthening relationships, supporting Indigenous cultural revitalization, and ensuring the waterfront reflects Indigenous histories, rights, and enduring connections to land and water.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Concurrently, staff will continue discussions with their Provincial and Federal counterparts on further funding for waterfront revitalization, including Waterfront East transit and further phases of Ookwemin Minising, which are contingent on future approvals.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This next stage of work on the creation of a new mixed-income, mixed-use complete community on Ookwemin Minising marks a significant milestone for the Port Lands. The combined tri-government investment, the creation of Toronto’s newest island, and the early delivery of housing and public spaces offer an opportunity to advance revitalization in the Port Lands.</p> |

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Summary from the report (June 27, 2025) from the President, Toronto Parking Authority:</p>
<p><br />We are pleased to present our first Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, which marks a significant milestone in our commitment to sustainable and responsible business practices, and our support of our TransformTO Net Zero goals.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Toronto is the fourth largest city in North America. Developing sustainable mobility solutions that meet ever changing customer needs is daunting yet inspiring. It requires hyper-collaboration with our stakeholders coupled with an unwavering focus on delivering sustainable value and growth. We are proud to engage with our City colleagues, staff, and industry partners to challenge the status quo; to reimagine, prototype, and deploy new and better ways to keep people, businesses, and industry moving.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The modernization of our integrated network of Parking, EV Charging and Bike Share portfolio is in flight. Our customers took over 32 million trips across our network in 2024. Our services are available 365 days a year across the city. In support of our TransformTO Net Zero commitments, we delivered a reduction of 7.0 million kg of greenhouse gas emissions in 2024. We are just getting started.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We are proud to share our progress in this, our inaugural Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report that reflects Toronto Parking Authority's commitment to the environment, society and governance. Through this ESG report, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of our sustainability journey, showcasing our achievements, challenges, and future goals. We invite our stakeholders to join us in this endeavour, as we strive to build a more sustainable world.</p> |
| 143033 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Cuts to Federal and Provincial Support for Housing | 2025.EX26.13 | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>The City of Toronto is facing two funding cuts that threaten our ability to bring people off the streets, out of encampments, and into shelter and housing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On September 18, the Province of Ontario informed the City that our allocation of the Canada-Ontario Housing Benefit (COHB) for 2026 has been reduced to $7.95 million, compared to $19.75 million for 2025 and $38 million for 2024.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>COHB is the single most effective tool we have for freeing up beds in our shelter system so that more people can come indoors from streets and parks. COHB helps people leave shelters, afford their own housing, become independent, and eventually no longer rely on the government to stay housed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Earlier this year, facing provincial delays and uncertainty, City Council decided to front some of the COHB funding. That was $4.815 million to help 570 households move into housing, therefore freeing up more shelter beds for people on the street. Now, the province has said we can only allow for 40 more households to move into housing between now and March 2026 within the funding they’ve provided.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That means all funds will be spent by the end of October, just when the weather turns cold and we need to bring homeless people on the street into shelters or homes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Previously, I shared the troubling news that the federal government is making significant changes to the Interim Housing Assistance Program (IHAP) which would see the City receive funding for just 26% of what we have projected to spend this year to shelter refugees and asylum seekers. Ontario Big City Mayors unanimously adopted a motion calling on the federal government to reinstate this funding as sheltering refugees is a federal responsibility. The Toronto and Region Board of Trade has written to the Minister in support of the City’s position.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The City and federal government are in agreement that we need more robust, permanent and lower-cost solutions to sheltering refugee claimants and asylum seekers. At the peak of the refugee response the City was sheltering 6,490 people in this stream each night. As the situation has stabilized, through successful collaboration with federal partners, we now have 3,420 claimants in our shelter system. The City is developing plans for a scaled, 2,000-bed refugee shelter system including expanding the refugee house model in partnership with frontline agencies and winding down the use of shelter hotels. But this work cannot continue if we are facing a $107 million in-year cut to the IHAP program, while we are still providing shelter support for 3,450 refugee claimants every night.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Together, these two funding cuts from the federal and provincial government place tremendous stress on those who found themselves homeless. We do not want to see a repeat of people sleeping in front of the city's homeless shelter placement office at Peter Street.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The federal government has the power and the responsibility to regulate the refugee application processes and the rate of work permit approvals. The provincial government determines how much financial support is provided to the most vulnerable such as those living with disabilities.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Emergency shelter and assisted housing for refugee claimants and those with complex needs should not be shifted onto the City and the property tax base.</p> |
