Transportation Services is recommending that overnight on-street permit parking be introduced on Longbourne Drive, between Willowridge Road and Redgrave Drive from 12:01 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., on an area named basis, within newly created Permit Parking Area 11.

On March 29, 2023, MM5.3 – Place Names in the Port Lands was adopted by City Council. Since then, City staff have been working with an Indigenous engagement consultant and Elder to design the engagement related to this work. The process, which will include a place naming advisory circle, will result in a recommended Indigenous name for the Island and a list of proposed names for streets and parks, to be considered by City Council in the fall of 2024. A permanent name for the Island will be needed in the early fall as Waterfront Toronto is expected to complete their Port Lands Flood Protection project’s river excavation work. The park and street names will be required by the end of 2024. In addition, this can provide future opportunities for the City to collaborate with Indigenous communities and use their leadership for a number of projects including affordable rental housing and economic development initiatives. The neighbourhoods, parks and public realm that are taking shape in the Port Lands offer a unique moment to support Indigenous cultural revitalization and to integrate Indigenous knowledge systems, oral histories, protocols, and connections to the land into th…

In recognition of Toronto’s strong and diverse 2SLGBTQ+ communities, cultures, and histories, City staff were directed to engage with community advocacy groups, including Friends of Hanlan’s and Pride Toronto to develop ways to better safeguard 2SLGBTQ+ communities at Hanlan’s Point Beach. Hanlan’s Point Beach and its surrounding area are historically significant as a queer community hub and place of fellowship. As a part of the City’s ongoing work to recognize and celebrate these histories, staff in the City’s Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division have collaborated with Friends of Hanlan’s in conjunction with Pride Toronto and a donation in part by Waterfront BIA to propose a community funded permanent art installation by queer artist Travis Myers comprised of a 600-metre painted rainbow installation on Beach Road, near Hanlan’s Point Beach in Toronto Island Park. The in-kind donation will include the rainbow installation to be delivered by a contracted vendor. Resources for site preparation prior to installation are minimal and will be accommodated within the Parks, Forestry and Recreation’s operating budget. The Hanlan&rsq…

Carjackings and automobile thefts have more than doubled year to date in 2024. Toronto Police Services have reported that there have been 68 carjackings so far this year - an alarming 106 per cent increase over the same time period in 2023. Auto thefts in 2023 topped 12,200 vehicles, an increase from 9,821 cars stolen in 2022. As the increase in car jackings demonstrates, auto thefts have become increasingly brazen and violent including break-and-enters related to auto theft that are on the rise and have already climbed to 34 incidents so far this year, eclipsing the 22 reported for all of 2023. There is more that needs to be done to combat this urgent and escalating crisis. After unacceptable delays in action, the Provincial and Federal governments have finally begun the process to end this epidemic – but we must act swiftly and decisively. It is clear to all levels of government that these thefts are part of a network of organized crime, with vehicles being stolen and shipped internationally. In addition to actions addressing the vulnerabilities at our shipping ports and in the antiquated anti-theft technologies that are offered by automobile manufacturers; more effective…

Small businesses across Toronto are facing an unprecedented wave of criminal break and enters that are affecting the daily lives of these business owners who are already struggling to recover and survive in the post-COVID environment. These small businesses owners are our friends and neighbours and help make up the fabric of our main street communities keeping them vibrant and ensuring that we have opportunities to shop local. Taken on their own, these selfish crimes may seem petty, but they are happening at an alarming rate and have a devastating impact on small business owners who may not be able to afford security guards or sophisticated alarm systems. These break-ins cause a disproportionate impact on the cost of repairs, lost business and increased insurance to name a few. On February 7, 2024, Council passed my motion MM14.16 - Summit to Solve the Epidemic of Criminal Break-and-Enters Against Small Business in the City of Toronto. On March 1, 2024, I organized and hosted the Summit attended by Toronto Police Service, Toronto Association Business Improvement Areas, many Business Improvement Areas and small business along with retail industry associations and a payments provide…
