The Toronto Transit Commission issued a public notice of completion for an Environmental Project report for the conversion of the Scarborough Rapid Transit Right-of-Way, Busway project on October 3, 2024 with a commenting period for stakeholders and the public closing on November 4, 2024. The Report, along with any comments submitted will be reviewed by the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks for final approval. The feedback from my community on the placement of a stop at Tara Avenue and Mooregate Avenue as one of three stops along the route has raised concerns from the surrounding community. Following the Toronto Transit Commission Community Consultation on September 24th, 2024, my office has received multiple e-mails, phone calls and a petition signed by 176 residents, submitted to this Council as part of the public record, opposing plans to install this stop. It culminated in a virtual community meeting with the Their concerns include lack of advance communication in identifying Tara & Mooregate Avenues as a stop on the Line 3 Busway, increased foot traffic from outside of the area, the accessibility of the planned location and the grading, traffic congestion an…

The recent provincial Bill 212 seeks to overturn the decisions and work of our locally elected Toronto City Council. If passed, the Bill means one government would, at tremendous cost to the taxpayer and without collaboration, undo another government's work. As Mayor, it is my responsibility to stand up for the decision-making authority of City Council and the expertise of our professional public service which supports that decision-making. As such, I am working with City Staff to review the City's options and will provide recommendations on this item prior to the City Council meeting on November 13, 2024.

The landlord of 80 Guestville Avenue has issued 26 N13 notices to tenants, claiming the need to renovate their units. Although building permits have been issued, no work has started on any unit, indicating a likely renoviction—an increasingly common tactic landlords use to evict tenants and raise rents. The Building Department has the authority to revoke a building permit if work has not begun within six months of issuance. Revoking these permits would halt the evictions and protect tenants from displacement. This motion is deemed urgent as N13 notices have been issued, and time is critical to prevent tenants from facing eviction.

Toronto Azzurri Soccer Club is a Below Market Rent not for profit tenant of a City-owned property located at 4995 Keele Street in Ward 6. On January 1, 2006, the Tenant entered into a 20-year Below Market Rent lease agreement for the Property. As of January 1, 2006, the Tenant began occupying the Property and has constructed an on-site field house and has operated and maintained the field house and the outdoor soccer field at the Property. The Tenant also operates recreational, competitive, and special needs soccer programs on the Property. A lease amendment was executed on June 1, 2008 to increase the area of the Leased Premises, to construct and maintain an environmentally friendly parking lot and to expand the use of the facility to include cricket and other sports and recreational activities. The operating and maintenance cost of the clubhouse and the field will continue to be the responsibility of the Tenant. The forgone revenue is not fully known given the status of the existing nominal lease arrangement. The Property is under the jurisdiction of Toronto Water as Keele Reservoir expansion lands. The expansion lands will be used by Toronto Water in future to increase the size…

With vacancy decontrol and the Ford government’s removal of rent control on buildings constructed after 2018, Toronto renters are all too aware of escalating prices for vacant units and annual double-digit rent increases on an apartment they’re already renting. With a structural housing supply shortage driving rent inflation, landlords are said to pass on massive rent increases to tenants according to what the market will bear. But what if these large increases are not solely the machinations of the “free market”, but rather the product of illegal price collusion between landlords facilitated by the same algorithmic pricing software currently subject to antitrust investigations in the United States? In the U.S., the Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating property management software company RealPage for illegal algorithmic rent setting through its software Yieldstar. The Department of Justice launched a lawsuit last August, claiming that the AI software allows landlords to collude on their rents, avoiding fair competition in the market. The influence of RealPage across U.S. rental markets was significant: it set roughly 60 person of prices in the…

This Motion will give the City Solicitor authority to appeal the Committee of Adjustment’s decision approving the minor variance application at 171 Pendrith Street (A0475/23TEY); to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body to oppose the development proposed in application A0475/23TEY; to retain outside consultants as necessary; and to negotiate a settlement of the appeal. On October 2, 2024, the Committee of Adjustment approved an application brought by the agent of the owner of 171 Pendrith Street for a proposal to construct a new three-storey detached dwelling on the site, with an internal garage, a covered front porch with stairs, a rear ground floor deck, and a rear walkout basement. To facilitate this application, four minor variances from City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013 were sought. A copy of the Committee of Adjustment’s decision on this application is attached as Attachment 1. The City’s primary issue with the Application is that the front yard land scaping is inadequate as the Application reduces the minimum 75% (9.56 square metres) of the required front yard landscaped open space down to 41.8% (5.33 square metres). The second issue with the Application is…
