On April 29, 2022, the City received Zoning By-law Amendment and Site Plan Control applications for 4001 Steeles Avenue West to permit significant infill development, including the construction of three new towers with heights of 45, 45 and 35 storeys at the north-east corner of the property. The applicant appealed City Council's neglect or failure to make a decision on its applications for the Zoning By-law Amendment and Site Plan Control, to the Ontario Land Tribunal on March 13, 2023. The City Solicitor requires further directions for the upcoming Ontario Land Tribunal hearing, which had been scheduled for November, 2024, but was adjourned until May, 2025 to allow the City Solicitor to obtain further instructions. This matter is urgent and should not be delayed to ensure sufficient time for procedural exchanges in advance of the scheduled hearing date.

This report recommends approval of zoning by-law amendments (ZBLA) to permit certain small-scale retail, service and office uses on Residentially-zoned properties within Neighbourhoods city-wide, and to update home occupations permissions in all areas. The ZBLAs provide for a more extensive list of permitted uses on major streets and more limited permissions on streets in the interior of Neighbourhoods. Changes are also proposed to home occupations permissions in all areas. This is the final report for Phase Two of the Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON) –Neighbourhood Retail and Services Study. The report also recommends approval of a monitoring approach. This study was undertaken with a combined team of staff from the City Planning and Development Review divisions. Draft zoning by-law amendments were presented to the Planning and Housing Committee in May 2024 and have been the basis for public and stakeholder consultations from June to October 2024, as well as internal discussions with City divisions. The proposed amendments have been revised to reflect feedback from these consultations. Amendments with respect to commercial use permissions in the Residentia…

At its meeting on February 6 and 7, 2024, City Council directed the City Manager to develop a policy framework for the management and monitoring of rallies and protests, ensuring alignment with the City’s Human Rights and Anti-Harassment Policy, and report back to City Council by December 2024. As directed by City Council, this report presents the Policy Framework – City Response to Demonstrations (Framework), included as Attachment 1. Demonstrations occurring anywhere in the city are events where the Toronto Police Service serves as the primary responder and enforcement agency to preserve the peace, maintain public safety and uphold the right to demonstrate lawfully. While the City of Toronto is not the primary responder for demonstrations, the City collaborates with the Toronto Police Service and coordinates specific activities in response as appropriate and based on the circumstances of the situation. The Framework applies to City divisions and informs the City’s coordination when demonstrations occur on or potentially impact publicly accessible City property. The City Manager's Office led the development of the Framework, in consultation with Legal Services a…

The SmartTrack Stations Program represents a significant investment to improve transportation choices for people within Toronto by leveraging existing transit infrastructure. The Program consists of five stations along three GO rail corridors: East Harbour, Bloor-Lansdowne, St. Clair-Old Weston, Finch-Kennedy and King-Liberty. The SmartTrack Program Budget is $1.689 billion, inclusive of $878 million from the City of Toronto, $585 million from the Government of Canada and $226 million from the Province of Ontario. In November 2024, the Ontario Minister of Transportation sent a letter to Mayor Chow formally notifying the City of cost pressures that exceed the approved Program Budget. The Province noted that global market conditions driven by rising interest rates and escalating prices for materials, skilled trades and labour are resulting in higher costs for the Program. After receiving this notification, the City, Province and Metrolinx met to assess options to address these cost pressures. Confidential Attachment 1 includes the letter to the Mayor from the Province, current cost pressures provided by the Province, and all options assessed by City, Provincial and Metrolinx staff t…

This Motion will give the City Solicitor authority to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body in order to oppose the appeal of the Committee of Adjustment’s decision to refuse the minor variance application at 321 Laird Drive (Application A0406/23NY) (the “Application”) and to retain outside consultants as necessary. This Motion will also authorize the City Solicitor to resolve the matter on behalf of the City, at the City Solicitor’s discretion, after consultation with the Ward Councillor and the Director of Community Planning, North York District. The applicant applied to the Committee of Adjustment requesting four minor variances from City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013, in order to construct a two-storey addition, in conjunction with other interior and exterior alterations, at 321 Laird Drive. On September 26, 2024, the Committee of Adjustment refused the Application. A copy of the Committee of Adjustment’s decision is attached as Attachment 1. The applicant has appealed the refusal to the Toronto Local Appeal Body. Community Planning did not submit a Staff Report on this matter, and for the City to continue to effectively assess and call its case, the…
