Dangerous Dog Review Tribunal 2023 Annual Report
2024.EC13.1
Y
Y
Y
Y
<p>The Chair of the Dangerous Dog Review Tribunal (Tribunal) must submit an annual report on its activities to the appropriate standing committee in accordance with its governance structure. Attached to this report is the Tribunal Chair's 2023 Annual Report.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Tribunal is an adjudicative board and city and local board of the City of Toronto and is established under the authority of the <em>City of Toronto Act, 2006</em>. Tribunal hearings are conducted in accordance with the <em>Statutory Powers Procedure Act</em> and the Tribunal's rules of procedure. The Tribunal provides an independent review of appeals to Dangerous Dog Orders that are issued by Municipal Licensing and Standards (MLS) under the authority of Section 349-15 of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 349, Animals. The Tribunal has the authority to either confirm the dangerous dog designation or rescind the dangerous dog designation and exempt the owner from compliance with the requirements of a Dangerous Dog Order.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In 2023, MLS responded to 2,726 service requests related to a potentially dangerous act by a dog and issued 137 Dangerous Dog Orders, with 11 Dangerous Dog Orders appealed to the Tribunal.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In 2023 the Tribunal heard 31 cases (the majority of these were carried over from 2022) and four cases were deferred to 2024. Of the matters heard, 25 Dangerous Dog Orders were upheld, four were rescinded, and two appeals were withdrawn. The Tribunal also approved one request for reconsideration of its earlier decisions, which has yet to be scheduled.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report also responds to six issues for consideration in the Chair's 2023 Annual Report. MLS is already working to address many of the identified issues, including proactive enforcement and public education of Dangerous Dog Orders and off-leash dogs. Staff are not recommending bylaw amendments as part of this report.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>MLS will report back to the Economic and Community Development Committee by October 2024 in response to Council directives as part of Item <a href="https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2024.EC10.2">2024.EC10.2</a>. The report will also address some of the identified issues in the Chair's 2023 Annual Report.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report was developed in consultation with Legal Services.</p>

Y
Y

<p>In accordance with the Relationship Framework approved by City Council for the</p>
<p>Toronto Licensing Tribunal, the Chair's 2023 Annual Report is being communicated to the Economic and Community Development Committee for information.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Toronto Licensing Tribunal (the Tribunal) is an independent quasi-judicial body that makes decisions about business licensing matters brought forward by Municipal Licensing and Standards (MLS), or at the request of a licence holder or applicant, in accordance with Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 545, Licensing, Chapter 546, Licensing of Vehicles-for-Hire, and, for short-term rental companies, Chapter 547, Licensing and Registration of Short-term Rentals. The Tribunal is comprised of seven citizens chosen by City Council for a four-year term, and it receives administrative support from the City of Toronto's Court Services Division. Between January to April 2023, the Tribunal operated with a complement of six members, after which more members were onboarded.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In 2023, the Toronto Licensing Tribunal scheduled 185 appearances before a hearing panel. There were a total of 49 electronic hearing dates. There were no hearing dates in-person. In 2023, the top licence types that appeared before the Tribunal were: Taxicab Owner’s Licences, Tow Truck Driver’s Licences, and Vehicle for Hire Driver’s Licences.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As indicated in the Toronto Municipal Code and the Relationship Framework for the</p>
<p>Toronto Licensing Tribunal, the Annual Report contains recommendations of the Chair for improvements or changes to the Toronto Licensing Tribunal policies and procedures. In the 2023 Annual Report, the Chair made recommendations to:</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1. Change the layout of hearing submissions to ensure that all parties can fully participate in electronic hearings using various devices;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">2. Return to the previous practice of scheduling interpreters in advance of hearing dates to support parties who require interpretation services; and</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">3. Formalize the Rules of Procedure for the management of Business Meetings.</p>

Response to 2024.MM14.7 - Feasibility of Piloting an Operational Base in North York for Municipal Licensing and Standards By-Law Enforcement
2024.EC13.3
Y
Y
Y
Y
<p>This report responds to a directive from City Council to explore the feasibility of piloting an operational base in North York for Municipal Licensing and Standards (MLS) By-Law Enforcement Officers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>MLS By-Law Enforcement Officers are based out of one of three locations: 1530 Markham Road, 433 Eastern Avenue, and 399 The West Mall. Each location contains teams of By-Law Enforcement Officers that investigate and enforce the various by-laws under MLS' jurisdiction. This includes both multi-disciplinary teams that have responsibility for a number of by-laws in a defined geographic area (known as a district), and dedicated enforcement teams, such as RentSafeTO or Noise, that provide city-wide service for a specific by-law or program. Service requests in North York are responded to by staff operating at each of these three locations, depending on the specific location and nature of the request.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In consultation with Corporate Real Estate Management, staff have not identified a site in North York that would optimally support the needs of an operational base of by-law enforcement officers, making a pilot not feasible at this time. However, MLS' growth has necessitated a review of long-term space planning needs for the division, aimed at identifying permanent solutions for increased space. MLS will continue to work closely with Corporate Real Estate Management to review MLS' space requirements city-wide, including options to locate MLS By-Law Enforcement Officers at appropriate facilities in North York.</p>

A Plan to Develop the Third Toronto Seniors Strategy
2024.EC13.4
Y
Y
Y
Y
<p>This report provides a response to City Council's request for a plan to develop the third Toronto Seniors Strategy.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Toronto’s senior population is growing, with increasing diversity and evolving priorities for aging in place. Building on the first (2013-18) and second (2018-22) Toronto Seniors Strategies, the third Toronto Seniors Strategy will continue to develop and adapt City programs, policies, and strategic initiatives to better support aging in place, particularly for seniors who are Indigenous, Black, and those who belong to equity-deserving groups.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>SSLTC has developed a community consultation process to identify the priorities of seniors in Toronto. The multi-modal community consultation plan was developed based on City engagement practices, best practices for engaging with seniors, and principles of equity and accessibility. The consultation methods are informed by leading practices for the engagement of seniors, as identified in the literature. This community consultation process will enhance the City's understanding of the concerns and experiences of seniors in Toronto, with a focus on equity-informed priorities for aging in place. The consultation results will be combined with sociodemographic data and input from key stakeholders to develop the third Toronto Seniors Strategy.</p>

Updating the City of Toronto's International Alliance Program
2024.EC13.5
Y
Y
Y
Y
<p> </p>
<p>Toronto’s international activities are guided by an International Policy Framework (IPF) adopted by City Council in 2002. The purpose of the IPF is to position Toronto as a diverse, economically dynamic, creative and caring global urban centre which respects human rights and champions local democratic government.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Toronto has maintained formal bi-lateral relationships with other cities around the world for decades, under the auspices of its International Alliance Program (IAP). Through its city-to-city IAP relationships, Toronto advances several goals of the IPF, including facilitating international business development and investment; exchanging information and best practices; and supporting cultural development, expression and engagement.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The IAP’s goals, structure, resourcing and relationships were last reviewed and updated by City Council in 2005.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report presents the findings of a review of the IAP, as directed by City Council. Among other elements, this review included a jurisdictional scan of effective practices used by cities engaged in international business development and para-diplomacy, an assessment of how Toronto’s relationships within and alongside the IAP have evolved over time, a survey of organizations which are part of Toronto’s international business development eco-system, and related research.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Drawing on this information and analysis, this report recommends: </p>
<ul>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">changes to provide a more accountable, flexible and effective structure for the IAP, including the use of two main relationship categories – (i) long-term Partnership City agreements and (ii) short-term International Project agreements; and </li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">updated eligibility criteria, assessment processes, approval and signing authorities for the establishment of any new IAP relationship agreements, including identification of the financial resources needed to deliver activities associated with the agreement and, as appropriate, consultation with other levels of government as key components of the assessment process. </li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<p>Finally, as requested by Council, this report advises whether Toronto’s ten existing IAP relationships (including four Partnership City and six Friendship City agreements) and nineteen Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) should be continued, modified or concluded in view of the City’s international engagement objectives and the IAP’s structure and requirements, as proposed to be updated.</p>

The City’s Encampment Approach and Strategy
2024.EC13.8
Y
Y
Y
Y
<p>Toronto is experiencing a housing and homelessness crisis. Communities across Canada continue to see increases in unsheltered homelessness and encampments since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Encampments are a symptom of the housing crisis, shelter demand that exceeds availability, increasing costs of living, inadequate income supports, and other social crises such as the drug toxicity and mental health crisis.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The City believes that permanent, adequate, affordable, and supportive housing is the solution to homelessness and is committed to advancing the progressive realization of the right to adequate housing as set out in the <a href="https://www.toronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/948f-Toronto-Housing-Charter-2020.pdf"><em>Toronto Housing Charter</em></a>. Encampments do not meet the human right to housing and are not a long-term solution to homelessness. While the City continues to work towards permanent housing solutions, it is critical that we continue to support people living in encampments, who are among the most vulnerable in our city.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The purpose of this report is to present the City’s strategic approach to encampments that is grounded in a human rights approach while supporting the safety and well-being of people living in encampments and surrounding communities. Key components of this approach include:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>a. Expanding the enhanced housing-focused outreach and support mode</p>
<p>b. Exploring new service models for people in encampments</p>
<p>c. Enhancing safety in the shelter system for staff and clients</p>
<p>d. Increasing permanent housing opportunities and shelter system flow</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>This report also provides an update on the City’s implementation of recommendations in the Ombudsman Toronto’s interim and final reports on encampments and seeks City Council approval of the attached <em>City of Toronto Interdivisional Protocol for Encampments in Toronto</em>, updated based on extensive engagement with people with lived experience of homelessness in encampments, and City and community stakeholders and partners.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>From a human rights-based approach, and consistent with what we heard from extensive stakeholder engagement, addressing the urgent issue of encampments requires a multi-divisional and sectoral approach and the commitment of all levels of government, community, and other stakeholders to invest in comprehensive public, social and health-related supports.</p>
