In 2021, the City and Toronto and Region Conservation Authority applied for approval to plan and carry out the construction of a multi-use trail under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment provisions of the Environmental Assessment Act (the "Act"). The particular project is to build an 800-metre trail to close a gap in the Humber River Recreational Trail (the "Trail") from Mallaby Park west of St. Phillip’s road to the southern entrance to Crawford-Jones Memorial Park off Cardell Ave (the "Project"). On January 18, 2023, the Minister of Environment, Conservation, and Parks (the "Minister") issued an order requiring that the City and Toronto and Region Conservation Authority carry out an individual environmental assessment of the Project (the "Order"). The Order states that allowing the Project to proceed on the basis of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment would not be consistent with the purposes of the Act. Confidential Attachment 1 provides further information and advice regarding the Minister’s decision.

On February 9, 2021, the Auditor General released a report entitled "Getting to the Root of the Issues - A Follow-Up to the 2019 Tree Maintenance Services Audit", which was tabled at the Audit Committee meeting on February 16, 2021. Council provided direction to Parks, Forestry and Recreation to report to each meeting of the Audit Committee on experiences and data collected on the performance of Urban Forestry contractors and City crews. This performance update report highlights the outcomes of the improved and robust contract management and crew oversight framework that Parks, Forestry and Recreation has implemented, and covers a full year of experiences and data tracked for Urban Forestry contractors and City crews, from January 1 to December 31, 2022. This report demonstrates the overall continual improvement in productivity and operational efficiency being exhibited by the crews as a result of the implementation of the Auditor General's recommendations and Parks, Forestry and Recreation's increased oversight and enhanced contract management. The regular tracking of key performance metrics has created an additional ability for Parks, Forestry and Recreation to integrate better…

It has just come to my attention to that there will be significant changes to custodial service levels and public access hours at City Hall, Metro Hall and the Civic Centers based on the Mayor’s budget passed on February 15th. In particular I want to draw to the Committee’s attention two incompatible issues. Under the ModernTO office consolidation, Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) head office and operations are to be relocated to Metro Hall from 931 Yonge St. As a public corporation conducting regular business with tenants, staff and the public every effort must be made to ensure that the operations, cleanliness and public access standards at 931 Yonge St. are not compromised by these unforeseen changes at Metro Hall. Lower standards of cleanliness and less public access are not compatible with the move to Metro Hall as dictated by ModernTO. I am also concerned about the overall reduction in cleaning as we emerge from the pandemic and that the proposed bundling of work orders mean longer waits for service.

In November 2022, Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing Steve Clark provided a letter regarding next steps surrounding Bill 23. In this letter the Minister promised to compensate the City of Toronto for any lost revenues as a result of the provincial Bill. To determine the costs borne by the City as a result of changes to the Development Charges the Province suggested a third-party Audit with joint terms of reference developed by the Province and City. With this report I am submitting the Terms of Reference for the Audit to City Council for discussion and approval. The Terms of Reference reflect several rounds of discussions with Provincial and Municipal staff to ensure an Audit that is expeditious, scoped properly, and effective. As with all negotiations, the attached Terms of Reference represents a compromise by both parties. As we know I am confident that the City of Toronto collects, spends and forecasts Development Charges and related housing infrastructure effectively. For this reason, it is my strong desire to have this Audit go forward as it will validate the claims we have made around the impacts of Bill 23 and its impacts on the City. Clearly, if we are to be made wh…

City Council on May 5 and 6, 2021, adopted Item MM32.10, titled " Accessing Justice - New Toronto Courthouses." The soon to be opened Ontario Court of Justice Toronto courthouse at 11 Centre Street will consolidate smaller neighbourhood court locations in Toronto under one roof. The closure of local courts will have negative impact for communities across Toronto. The loss of local courthouses will marginalize those who are trying to access justice; result in an economic loss for small businesses in the surrounding area; and exacerbate security concerns at the new centralized location. Local courthouses are a vital part of our city and its surrounding communities. It is understood that court services at 2201 Finch Avenue West have already moved and that the 2201 Finch Avenue West location will operate as a bail hearing office. All downtown courthouses (including those located at Old City Hall) have already moved, or are in position to move, into 11 Centre Avenue. The neighbourhood courthouse at 1000 Finch Avenue West (in North York) is scheduled to move April 14-17, 2023 and the court house at 1911 Eglinton Avenue East (located in Scarborough) is scheduled to move May 5-8, 2023. It…
