East Harbour Transit Oriented Communities Proposal: Conclusion of Negotiations and Draft Plan of Subdivision, and Approach to Next Stage

2024.EX15.1

PBNTGVN

This report presents the outcome of negotiations with the Province and Cadillac Fairview related to the East Harbour Transit Oriented Community (TOC) development.  In addition, the report seeks City Council approval to conclude a series of agreements based on the negotiated terms and advises Council of the Chief Planner's intention to issue Draft Plan of Subdivision approval subject to conditions (Draft Plan Conditions). The report also seeks City Council authority to continue discussions with the Province and Cadillac Fairview on an emerging proposal to adjust the current ratio of employment and residential permissions by increasing the amount of mixed use and residential development at East Harbour.   An essential element for the East Harbour TOC development is the East Harbour Transit Hub (the Transit Hub). The Transit Hub is a priority project for the City and the Province. Along with other major infrastructure investments in the area, the Transit Hub will be an economic catalyst creating opportunities for new employment and housing development in the broader area, as well as being essential for the East Harbour TOC development. City Council provided direction in April 2022 confirming City priorities for the East Harbour TOC, including the negotiated community benefits and affordable housing. Based on this direction, City staff have negotiated an overarching approach with the Province and Cadillac Fairview that effectively addresses City interests and requirements at East Harbour.   The East Harbour TOC development is based on terms outlined in a Contribution Agreement between the Province and Cadillac Fairview. The City is not a party to the Contribution Agreement and is restricted in its ability to negotiate given the key terms pre-determined by the Contribution Agreement. The Contribution Agreement establishes several Conditions Precedent (CPs) to be satisfied in order for Cadillac Fairview to release $300 million in cash and in-kind contributions to the City. The majority of the CPs relate to actions to be taken by the City, while certain other CPs relate to actions to be taken by the Provincial government and Metrolinx. Cash contributions will flow through the Province to the City according to the terms of the Contribution Agreement.   In April 2022, following City Council's approval of negotiating direction, the Province issued a Ministerial Zoning Order (MZO) to give effect to the TOC, granting Cadillac Fairview residential development permissions of 302,000 square metres (3.25 million square feet) at East Harbour. With the introduction of residential development at East Harbour, City staff have been guided by an overarching objective to create a liveable, functional mixed-use community, with appropriate supportive community services and facilities, parks and open space, affordable housing, and transportation and servicing infrastructure. Key objectives for City staff have been to ensure City interests are properly reflected in the terms of agreements with the Province and Cadillac Fairview, and to effectively manage financial and other risks to the City.  This includes a focus on limiting the impact of the TOC development on the remaining employment lands on the site and in the vicinity as directed by City Council.   As noted above, this report outlines the terms of several key agreements required by the CPs and seeks City Council authority to conclude and execute the agreements:   -A Site-Specific TOC Agreement between the City and the Province to set out the CPs and the manner in which the CF funds will flow to the city, details respecting Provincial and City funding commitments for infrastructure works and governance terms for the delivery of the Broadview Eastern Flood Protection project and the Broadview Avenue extension;   -A Development Agreement between the City, Cadillac Fairview and the Province related to requirements for the delivery of in-kind contributions including a community centre and two childcare centres and other aspects of the TOC development;   -An Affordable Housing Agreement between the City and Cadillac Fairview establishing the key terms for the delivery of 215 affordable housing units for 99 years at East Harbour; and   -Amendments to the existing Section 37 Agreement to reflect changes in the location and timing of the delivery of certain benefits.   The report also outlines conditions related to the Draft Plan of Subdivision and a Pre-Servicing Agreement with Cadillac Fairview. These also relate to CPs identified in the Contribution Agreement.   The New Deal between the City and Province includes terms regarding two key infrastructure projects in East Harbour – the Broadview Avenue Extension north of the rail corridor to Eastern Avenue, and the Broadview Eastern Flood Protection project.  The New Deal outlines commitments to funding for the delivery of these City infrastructure projects and provides direction relating to the design approach as well as roles and responsibilities of the City and the Province. This report provides more detail on an updated approach to implementing the Broadview Eastern Flood Protection project.   The outcomes of negotiations described in this report are based on Cadillac Fairview's existing East Harbour master plan. The master plan reflects 926,000 square metres (10 million square feet) of employment development approved by City Council in 2018 and the addition of 302,000 square metres (3.25 million square feet) of residential development approved through the Provincial MZO in 2022.   Cadillac Fairview's previous employment conversion request as part of the recent Municipal Comprehensive Review is being considered by Planning and Housing Committee in June 2024 to coincide with this broader East Harbour TOC report.  That report recommends the maintenance of the employment lands at East Harbour, except for the particular sites where the MZO provides for residential development.   While Cadillac Fairview has confirmed their commitment to concluding these negotiations, in late May 2024, Cadillac Fairview informed the Province and the City that with market conditions related to the office development and the costs of financing the East Harbour development, it intends to pursue with the Province further changes to the employment lands to allow more mixed use and residential development.    The City has been clear throughout these TOC negotiations that any future change in the balance of residential and employment permissions on the East Harbour site will require additional affordable housing and other community benefits.  This report seeks guidance for City staff discussions with the Province and Cadillac Fairview.  City staff will report back to City Council with further information on the Cadillac Fairview proposal as it becomes available and will seek any required City Council direction.   Several initial City conditions are fundamental to this discussion and should be articulated to the Province and Cadillac Fairview as discussions begin. City staff recommend that City Council endorse several key conditions related to any changes to allow more residential development:   -Depending on the proposed density increase, City Council has set a target of 20% of all new housing units as affordable housing on the same 99 year affordability period as the affordable housing provided for the first part of the East Harbour TOC; -The provision of additional community benefits at a rate of up to 10% on the new development, depending on what the market can bear -A firm commitment to the protection of employment development, the phasing of employment development to coincide with residential development, and a specific approach to develop the film sector at East Harbour -A commitment to fully integrate the Keating Lands into the revised East Harbour master plan and to acquire the lands to support important benefits, including an increase in affordable housing and expanding the Community Recreation Centre.
