A settlement offer was endorsed by City Council on April 23 and 24, 2025. On June 24, 2025, the OLT issued an interim Order and approved the Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment applications that permits an 18-storey mixed-use building with 230 dwelling units, including 8 replacement rental units. The OLT withheld its final Order until outstanding matters, including a decision by City Council on the Rental Housing Demolition application, are resolved.</p>

<p> </p>
<p>LCG Residential Builders Ltd. is constructing a 16-storey residential building at 2-24 Temple Avenue. The site is located on the northwest corner of Dufferin Street and Temple Avenue.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The project will be undertaken in two phases, each requiring varying closures, and traffic and parking by-law amendments. This report pertains to Phase 1 of the project, with recommendations that will be required until the end of the project. Moreover, there are no proposed construction staging areas during this phase, only traffic and parking by-law amendments. Phase 2 involves the long term occupation of the public right-of-way and is expected to occur in Q2 2026; thus, a subsequent report will be submitted in advance of the work.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Access to the site will be established on the north side of Temple Avenue and west side of Dufferin Street. Temple Avenue operates as a one-way westbound operation forcing vehicles egressing the site to travel through the neighbourhood. To avoid traffic infiltration, it is recommended that a section of Temple Avenue be temporarily converted from a one-way westbound operation to a temporary two-way operation, between Dufferin Street and a point 73 metres west, for a period of 34 months from September 30, 2025 to July 31, 2028. This recommendation will result in the removal of six on-street permit parking spaces. There is sufficient permit parking inventory in the area, therefore these spaces will not adversely impact permit holders.</p> | 25 |

<p>Graywood CD Limited Partnership is constructing a 53-storey residential building at 241 Church Street. The site is located on the northeast corner of Church Street and Dundas Street East.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Currently, a 4.6 metre wide portion of the west curb lane and sidewalk on Dalhousie Street is closed for construction staging operations. With the construction staging area in place, the remaining road width is 4.5 metres, which is insufficient for two-way traffic operations. Consequently, the two-way operations have been temporarily converted to a one-way northbound operation. In addition, the construction staging area encompasses the west sidewalk, therefore pedestrian movements are restricted. Advance advisory warning signage has been installed to inform pedestrians to cross to the other side of the roadway. It should be noted that the construction staging area has been installed and is operating under a monthly Street Occupation Permit.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services is requesting to formalize the above noted closures and traffic amendments on Dalhousie Street.

<p> </p>
<p>At the time of this report, the below grade construction is underway. The next phase of construction will require a larger footprint to accommodate a material hoist and additional equipment. As a result, the occupation on the west curb lane on Dalhousie Street will increase from 4.2 metres to 5.5 metres. Pedestrian movements on the west sidewalk will continue to be restricted. The appropriate sidewalk closure signage is installed to inform pedestrians to cross to the other side of the roadway.</p>

<p>The focus of this report is Bathurst Street, from Eglinton Avenue West to Bathurst Station North Exit. The recommended changes, which consist of extensions to No Stopping restrictions on the east side of Bathurst Street in the afternoon and weekend, as well as changes to some No Left-Turn restrictions, are intended to clear parking in the curb lane and prohibit turning vehicles from blocking buses and general traffic at intersections, for periods where the 7 Bathurst service is significantly impacted by congestion. An analysis of the TTC's 7 Bathurst operations supports the recommendations in this report.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposed extended traffic regulations are intended to improve the reliability of the afternoon bus route and reduce traffic congestion in the afternoon outside of peak hours. Conditions will be monitored following implementation, to determine whether the changes have the intended effect, and whether any further adjustments are required.</p>

<p>In addition, the TTC is currently undertaking a Bunching and Gapping study to improve the service reliability of select TTC routes, including the 7 Bathurst. The study focuses on shifting route management from an emphasis on departures at end terminals to a more customer-oriented approach, recognizing that customers depend on vehicles arriving at regularly spaced intervals, and not a schedule. Additional recommendations for the 7 Bathurst are expected to come from the TTC's Bunching and Gapping study, once the study concludes.</p> | 25 |

<p> </p>
<p>Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) has worked with Transportation Services to identify a new on-street paid parking opportunity in Ward 9 that will support the local community and area businesses by encouraging a regular turnover in the on-street parking supply.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Through this review, Transportation Services is requesting approval for the installation of on-street paid parking on Dovercourt Road in Ward 9. The proposed parking changes will replace the existing parking restrictions currently in effect, including restricted one-hour unpaid parking. The proposed changes will not impact the flow of traffic and will encourage parking turnover.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services is also requesting approval to amend the existing permit parking hours on the west side of Dovercourt Road at the request of the Ward Councillor. Permit parking will remain and can co-exist with the proposed on-street paid parking. Valid permit holders would not be subject to a parking fee where permit parking signs and on-street paid parking signs co-exist.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>While this report seeks Community Council approval for the installation of on-street paid parking on Dovercourt Road in Ward 9, this is an ongoing initiative; Transportation Services and TPA will continue to review and report on potential new on-street paid parking opportunities throughout the City of Toronto.</p> | 25 | 43 |

<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services is requesting approval to install traffic control signals at the intersection of Sherbourne Street North and Elm Avenue/Maple Avenue. The traffic control signals will provide enhanced safety for all road users and is justified based on the assessment undertaken. Due to the complex geometry of this intersection, for the traffic control signal to operate safely, it will also be necessary to:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Prohibit northbound right turns on red at all times from Sherbourne Street North to Elm Avenue; and</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">- Designate Maple Avenue, between Sherbourne Street North and Glen Road (west intersection) one-way for eastbound traffic only.</p> | 25 | 49 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 11 - University - Rosedale | N | … | Report | ACTION | Deferred Indefinitely |
| 142675 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | AMENDED | — | N | Temporary Amendments to Traffic and Parking Regulations and Transit Priority Measures to Support Transit Diversions during the Queen Street East Closures | 2025.TE25.50 | — | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Engineering and Construction Services will be undertaking a watermain and TTC track replacement project on Queen Street East, between Davies Avenue and Broadview Avenue, from October 1, 2025 to May 1, 2026. The work will be completed in phases to avoid a full closure of Queen Street East. Traffic lanes will be reduced to one eastbound and one westbound traffic lane during the watermain replacement, from October 2025 to February 2026. From March 2026 to April 2026, Queen Street East will be reduced to a single eastbound lane to facilitate the streetcar track replacement.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services is recommending amendments to the traffic and parking regulations in the area surrounding the construction site, as well as requesting approval, on behalf of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC), to install transit priority measures (TPMs) on Dundas Street East, between Parliament Street and River Street to support the transit routes diverted due to the watermain and TTC track replacement project. The 501 Queen, 503 Kingston Road, and 504 King will be diverted due to the closure.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To maintain traffic flow around the construction on Queen Street East, this report proposes prohibiting stopping at all times on both sides of Queen Street East between Davies Avenue and Broadview Avenue. During the streetcar track closures from March 2026 to April 2026, Hamilton Street will be converted from a one-way northbound operation to a temporary two-way operation to facilitate local egress.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The suite of TPMs proposed in this report aim to improve the speed and reliability of impacted TTC routes during the partial closure of Queen Street East. The proposed changes include increased duration of existing ‘No Stopping’ and ‘No Parking’ zones, new turning restrictions, and increased duration of existing turning restrictions. The proposed changes aim to mitigate the impact on the 49,000 streetcar customers travelling each day on the routes affected directly or indirectly by the construction closure (based on Spring 2025 ridership).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To support streetcar and general traffic operations along diverted transit routes, this report proposes extending existing ‘No Stopping’ restrictions on Dundas Street East between Parliament Street and Sackville Street to cover the periods of 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday to Friday. It also proposes extending or implementing ‘No Parking’ restrictions on the north side of Dundas Street East between Parliament Street and Sackville Street from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, and 12:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Saturday to Sunday. The south side of Dundas Street East between Parliament Street to Sackville Street has existing Anytime ‘No Parking’ restrictions. New or extended turn prohibitions are proposed at multiple intersections along Dundas Street East between Parliament Street and River Street to reduce delay to streetcars at these intersections from turning vehicles.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The transit priority measures were focussed on Dundas Street East, between Parliament Street and Broadview Avenue as this stretch has the highest streetcar frequency of the streets affected by the TTC diversion (12-16 streetcars per hour in the PM peak). Parliament Street and Broadview Avenue have similar transit vehicle frequencies (12 per hour and 14-15 per hour respectively), but these are made up of both streetcar and bus services; buses are able to manoeuvre around traffic and pass other buses and turning vehicles (if a lane is available), whereas streetcars move on a track and are vulnerable to both their own delays and delays affecting the streetcars ahead of them. The segments of Parliament Street, Broadview Avenue, and River Street supporting additional TTC service during the partial closure of Queen Street East will be monitored and transit priority measures will be proposed if necessary, such as curbside use restrictions and/or turn prohibitions.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Any additional TPMs that would be proposed to support the diversions in Ward 14 will be coordinated with the work associated with 2025.TE24.46 Traffic Management in Ward 14 related to the King Street East and Church Street Intersection Project, which is on-going and has in-progress traffic monitoring. As part of this project the TTC is working with the City of Toronto on improvements to transit and traffic in this area. Before the start of construction, the TTC streetcar stops at Dundas Street East and Munro Street will be removed to improve the traffic flow in this area. TTC and Transportation Services will complete modelling with the data collection program to further support recommendations in the area. An update on these efforts and recommendations for Item 2025.TE24.46 will be addressed at the Toronto and East York Community Council Meeting on October 22, 2025.</p>

Visitors are often parked in the few spaces available, resulting in frustration and conflicts among residents.<br /> <br /> Through a neighbourhood survey, residents confirmed support and provided feedback on improvements to parking regulations on Cross Street. The proposed amendments include the removal of switchover parking days, fixed parking on the north section of the street where there are more spaces, and expanded permit parking times. These changes create a balance by helping to resolve the parking situation for Cross Street residents while ensuring spaces remain available for family members and other visitors.</p> | 25 | 59 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 9 - Davenport | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted |

<p>I have heard many concerns from residents about dangerous driving behaviour, including excessive speeding, drivers running through the crosswalk, and near misses with pedestrians and cyclists. These concerns reflect an urgent need for improved safety measures to prevent a serious collision.<br /> <br /> Transportation Services conducted a review and determined that designating this section of Dovercourt Road as a community safety zone is warranted. The proximity to several schools and a daycare, the significant pedestrian volume, and limitations to traffic calming options all justified the need for this designation. The establishment of a community safety zone will increase penalties for drivers violating traffic rules and will support any future installations of an automated speed enforcement system. These improvements will help to improve safety for all vulnerable road users travelling around this growing neighbourhood.</p> | 25 | 65 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 9 - Davenport | N |

<p>Through a neighbourhood-led petition, residents on this part of Concord Avenue confirmed their support for reducing the maximum parking time from 3 hours to 1 hour during non-permit parking times. This parking amendment will not only support turnover for visitors parking in the area but also preserve parking spaces for residents trying to locate a spot.</p> | 25 | 67 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 9 - Davenport | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New | Delegated |
| 142864 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Elm Avenue Traffic Calming | 2025.TE25.68 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>A large private school, Branksome Hall, is located at the intersection of Mount Pleasant Road and Elm Avenue. There is heavy traffic in the area, especially at student drop off and pick up times. This traffic has been exacerbated by three construction projects in the vicinity, as well as by a sharp increase in cut through traffic since the pandemic. This heavy traffic causes conflict with the school’s neighbours and reduces the willingness of parents to let their children walk to school, which in turn worsens vehicle traffic.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The school retained a traffic consultant which made multiple recommendations, including for traffic calming measures on Elm Avenue and for a traffic light at the intersection of Elm Avenue and Sherbourne Street North. This report was followed by extensive consultations between school, parents, and neighbors, with the assistance of the South Rosedale residence Association. These consultations will continue through an informal neighbourhood liaison committee.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At the request of the Ward Councillor, Traffic Operations did a detailed study and concluded that neighbourhood safety would be improved by installing traffic lights at the intersection of Elm and Sherbourne, which entails making Maple one-way eastbound. Most neighbours are strongly opposed to this to this recommendation. They have asked instead, that speed humps be installed on Elm Avenue, and that no-stopping restrictions be expanded. Once these are installed and the construction projects in the immediate vicinity are complete, the liaison committee will revisit their opposition to the recommended traffic light.</p> | 25 | 68 |
| 142841 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Exclusion of Mirvish Village Development from On-street Residential Permit Parking | 2025.TE25.69 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>The Westbank Mirvish Development at the corner of Bathurst and Bloor contains approximately 890 residential units in addition to multiple non-residential premises. Part of the community negotiations prior to zoning approval of this project were that the developer would build sufficient underground parking to accommodate all tenants, as this very high density development would completely overwhelm neighbourhood on-street parking if Mirvish Village tenants were eligible for on-street parking permits.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>However, no permit parking exclusion was included in the original zoning approval. Mirvish Village tenants have now begun to move in. Although there is ample space in the underground parking lot, tenants have begun to apply for on-street residential parking permits, since the city charges very little for on-street parking. The neighbourhood cannot accommodate unlimited on-street parking for Mirvish Village tenants.</p> | 25 | 69 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 11 - University - Rosedale | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted |

Markham Street at Lennox is one way northbound, although Markham Street north of Lennox is still closed for construction.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Residents in the area have requested that this portion of Lennox Street be reopened to two-way traffic, to help manage congestion at the Lennox/ Markham intersection and to avoid funnelling unnecessary vehicle traffic through the pedestrian-priority Mirvish Village retail/commercial area intended to occupy both sides of Markham Street between Bloor and Lennox.</p> | 25 | 70 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 11 - University - Rosedale | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New | Delegated | — | Community Council | … |

Many homes in East York currently lack accessible EV charging options, which presents a barrier as more residents transition to energy-efficient vehicles.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As the demand for sustainable transportation continues to grow across the city, it is important that we provide the necessary infrastructure to support this shift. In particular, the area near Coxwell Avenue and Mortimer Avenue is a high-traffic zone, surrounded by schools, a community centre, and a hospital—making it a strategic location for EV chargers to serve both residents and visitors.</p> | 25 | 71 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 14 - Toronto - Danforth | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New | Delegated | — | Community Council |

This area falls within Metrolinx’s Ontario Line work zone, where major construction is underway and traffic volumes are expected to increase.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Residents have reported that construction-related activity in the surrounding area has contributed to higher traffic volumes and speeding, impacting both safety and quality of life. In response to these concerns, my office conducted a community ballot to assess support for traffic calming measures.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The results confirmed strong support from local residents for the installation of speed humps on Pape Avenue. These measures aim to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance pedestrian and community safety while significant transit infrastructure work continues nearby.</p> | 25 | 72 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 14 - Toronto - Danforth | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New |

| 142888 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Speed Humps and Safety Improvements - Benlamond Avenue (Between Main Street and Norwood Road) | 2025.TE25.74 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Residents have reached out to my office with concerns about pedestrian safety on Benlamond Avenue and on surrounding neighbourhood streets. Our office has received a petition from residents in support of the installation of speed humps on Benlamond Avenue (between Main Street and Norwood Road) in January 2025. My office directed staff to prepare a report to Toronto and East York Community Council to authorize the installation. Unfortunately, this action was not completed.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Therefore, I am requesting staff to report back to our next Community Council meeting with the required details to authorize the installation of speed humps on Benlamond Avenue and to report back the feasibility of accelerating additional road safety improvements.</p> | 25 | 74 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 19 - Beaches - East York | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New | Delegated |
| 142889 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Ontario Place Event Traffic Management Strategy | 2025.TE25.75 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Ontario Place is the site of the Budweiser Stage concert venue and hosts dozens of events every year, with over 70 scheduled in 2025. Budweiser Stage also has plans to expand its capacity in the coming years.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The venue generates peak traffic activity on Lake Shore Boulevard West. before and after concerts. In particular, pick-up and drop-off including rideshare is happening on curb lanes, creating congestion and unsafe movements for passengers and pedestrians.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As a busy transportation corridor, Lake Shore Boulevard West. experiences large amounts of traffic in general. The site is also close to Exhibition Place which in addition to its trade shows and conventions hosts sporting events and signature events such as the Canadian National Exhibition and Toronto Caribbean Festival that generate significant levels of traffic. These factors exacerbate the issues faced with concert event pick-up and drop off.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A staff assessment of strategies to manage pick-up and drop-off for events at this site is needed to address these concerns. These should be informed through testing of mitigation measures during the remainder of the 2025 season, and a report back in advance of the 2026 season.</p> | 25 | 75 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 10 - Spadina - Fort York | N | … |
| 142871 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | AMENDED | — | N | Wellington Street Loading Zone | 2025.TE25.76 | — | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>In April 2022, Council approved bylaw <a href="https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/bylaws/2023/law0294.pdf">294-2023</a>: Item -<a href="https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2022.IE28.7"> 2022.IE28.7</a> to adjust traffic and parking regulations to accommodate the Douro Street and Wellington Street Road Safety and Bikeway Improvements project as part of the Council approved Cycling Network Plan.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The loading zone in question was adjusted as part of a Cycling Network Plan project on Wellington Street which required the relocation of the loading zone used predominantly by 1Hotel, previously located on Wellington Street West just East of Bathurst Street, to Bathurst Street between Wellington Street West and Stewart Street.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This relocation had become problematic with challenges with snow clearing, peak hour traffic and also with the forthcoming Bathurst RapidTO project. As such Transportation Services has worked with 1Hotel to design and reconstruct the sidewalk on Wellington Street to safely accommodate a loading bay at the original location on Wellington Street at the hotel’s expense. As such, this motion is to revert the by-laws to reflect the original loading zone condition.</p> | 25 | 76 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 10 - Spadina - Fort York | N | … |
