The Portlands Energy Centre is a 550 megawatt fossil natural gas electricity generating station located in the Port Lands. In September 2023, proposed upgrades to the facility were announced, which would expand its electricity generating capacity by 50 megawatts. In January 2024, the City provided comment and questions on a draft Screening Report under the environmental assessment process for the Portlands Energy Centre Upgrade project. In March 2024, a final Screening Report was released that did not address the City’s comments or questions. Requesting that the Minister of Environment, Conservation and Parks elevate the Portlands Energy Centre beyond the environmental screening process, and require the facility to undergo a Comprehensive Environmental Assessment would: 1. Address a lack of information about future greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions from the facility, and their potential impacts on the local community. The City’s questions about quantities of future greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions were not answered in the Screening Report. Similarly, the Portlands Energy Centre Upgrade Screening Report does not identify the levels of air pollutants t…

The past weeks have caused confusion, anxiety and frustration for thousands of Torontonians. Vacant Home Tax notices landed in mailboxes of people who did not know the City was asking them to declare occupancy. People who live in their homes. People who have tenants living in units. They now believe they owe the City thousands of dollars when they don’t. That’s not fair. The design of the program was approved December 2021 and is clearly flawed. This has caused hardship, especially for seniors who can’t access online tools or those who cannot read English. How we administer the Vacant Home Tax program must be rebuilt from scratch. The Vacant Homes Tax exists for a good reason: to make more homes available to people. It’s meant to discourage speculators who leave units empty during our housing crisis. Homes that people could live in today. The funds we collect from speculators can be re-invested in more affordable housing, like the Multi-Unit Residential Acquisition program. We are fixing this mess. The Vacant Homes Tax needs to be administered in a simple, fair way. People need to know now that if their home was occupied last year, there is no need to pay.…

This report responds to a request from the Infrastructure and Environment Committee to undertake a comprehensive review of the various on-street parking administrative penalty amounts and to report back on revised administrative penalty amounts. Transportation Services has been working with a number of City agencies to review the Parking Violation Notices (PVN) issued by the City of Toronto and has conducted a jurisdictional scan of several Canadian municipalities to compare similar offences and their penalty amounts to those of the City of Toronto. As a result of this review, this report recommends Council approval to increase penalty amounts for 125 offences associated with 'parking', 'stopping' and 'standing'. The recommended increase in penalty amounts will ensure better alignment with penalty amounts in other jurisdictions, encourage compliance, ensure certain offences are set at levels commensurate with the seriousness of the offence, and ensure that offences within the same categories are set at the same penalty amount for consistency. City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 610, Penalties, Administration of, will need to be amended to reflect the new penalty amounts. This r…

On April 28, 2022, a combined Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application was submitted for a development at 4884-4896 Dundas Street West to permit a 12-storey mixed-use building containing 225 residential units and 1214 square metres of retail space at-grade. On June 15, 2023 a revised Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application was submitted to permit a 29-storey mixed-use building containing 395 residential units and a total of 1322 square metres of at-grade retail space along Dundas Street West. In both submissions, the heritage building on site was proposed to be partially retained and relocated. On June 23, 2023, the applicant appealed the applications to the Ontario Land Tribunal citing City Council's failure to make a decision on the applications within the time period prescribed under the Planning Act. On March 8, 2024, the applicant submitted a with prejudice settlement offer (the "Settlement Offer") that included an application under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act to alter the on-site heritage resource ("the heritage application"), attached as Public Appendix A. The City Solicitor requires further instructions with respect…
