In December 2024, The City of Toronto unveiled the sites of six new shelter locations that are planned to be developed in accordance with the City’s 10-year Homelessness Services Capital Infrastructure Strategy, approved by Council in November 2023. The City has delegated the public consultation process to the Community Engagement Facilitator Public Progress team. They have been tasked with providing ongoing shelter updates, responding to questions and working collaboratively with the City and local community members. In coordination with Toronto Shelter and Supportive Services, City staff recently determined that addressing planning entitlement matters through a collective approach for the six sites, as opposed to a site-by-site process. Community consultation sessions and public engagement campaigns have taken on a generalized approach which does not appropriately reflect the needs and concerns of local communities which will be impacted by the six new proposed shelters.

Toronto is one of the top five screen-based industry hubs in North America and was named the “Best Place to Live and Work as a Movie Maker” in a survey conducted by MovieMaker Magazine in 2024. The screen sector employs more than 30,000 Torontonians, a number that is expected to continue to grow. A June 2022 consultant report identified Toronto’s film industry as a high-growth sector poised to play an outsized role in driving Toronto’s future economic development. In that same year, film and television productions spent a record $2.6 billion in Toronto. Roughly 70 percent of Toronto’s production volume comes from international projects, which are highly mobile. With more cities competing for these economic opportunities, the City must continue to enhance the attractiveness, competitiveness, and viability of Toronto’s screen sector. School sites are desirable film locations for film and television productions but can be challenging to permit due to the potential impacts on school operations. Securing an unused school as a film location would build on the xoTO Schools program by providing predictable access to a high-demand film location and suppo…

Toronto is facing an evolving housing crisis, impacting housing affordability for low-income, vulnerable residents including people experiencing homelessness, as well as key workers and middle-income earners. In recent years, City Council has taken significant action on housing, notably approving a whole-of-government response and range of strategic, program, and policy directions through Item EX9.3 - Advancing a Generational Transformation of Toronto's Housing System to Urgently Build More Affordable Homes. City Council also increased the HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan (“HousingTO 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. Effectively mobilizing the public land is necessary to achieve the targets in the HousingTO Plan. Through EX9.3, City Council identified almost 100 sites owned by the City or its Agencies and/or Corporations (hereafter referred to as “City lands” or “City sites”) that are ready to be mobilized to build new homes, or show potential as housing development sites subject to due diligence. This report p…

Toronto is increasingly experiencing the effects of climate change, including more frequent, prolonged and extreme heat events. Excessive indoor temperatures are a significant concern for many, including residents in multi-unit residential buildings without air conditioning, with the potential for a significant impact on seniors and individuals with health conditions (e.g. chronic heat and lung conditions, asthma, cancer). In response, the City is launching a pilot program for summer 2025 to provide portable air conditioners to low-income seniors living in multi-unit residential buildings who have a self-identified medical need made worse by extreme heat. The pilot program prioritizes simplicity, equity, and integration with existing City services, using a one-window intake system and a randomized draw to allocate up to 500 air conditioning units, with outreach support from community partners. This initiative is a Mayoral priority that received funding in Budget 2025, aligns with broader climate change resilience efforts and complements existing supports, such as the City's Hardship Fund. This report provides an overview of the proposed pilot design and seeks authorization to form…

This report seeks authority for the City to enter into a licence agreement with Carla Construction and Maintenance Ltd., for operation and maintenance of a passenger transportation shuttle service within High Park, with potential for additional agreements as required and as deemed feasible at other City parks in the future. The initial agreement is for a term of five years, with two options to extend up to five years each, in favour of the City, provided the licensee is not in default of the agreement. The licensee was selected through a Request for Proposal process issued on November 4, 2024 for April 2026 operation. The Request for Proposal supports the goals of the High Park Movement Strategy and improves accessibility to key destinations within High Park with a consistent and predictable service. The solution is environmentally friendly, will modernize customer service, provides a daily shuttle service from April to October 31 annually, and includes a winter service pilot program to expand service availability to year-round operation.
