In 2018, the City submitted a bid to host the FIFA World Cup 2026. Toronto, along with 15 other cities across the United States of America, Canada, and Mexico, will host the international football (referred to as soccer in North America) tournament. Hosting this Mega Event involves significant funding and involvement from multiple levels of government. The purpose of this project was to examine the City’s governance and cost control measures leading up to and during the execution of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Agreement. It also identifies opportunities for improvement for City Council and management on future Mega and large international events, as well as other City Council decisions requiring significant funding with financial support from multiple levels of government. This report aims to reinforce best practices for City Council and staff to help strengthen governance and guidelines for future Mega Events, as well as to address areas for improvement in hosting the FIFA World Cup 2026 in Toronto.

RapidTO is a joint initiative by the City of Toronto and the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) that aims to improve bus and streetcar travel time reliability for surface transit priority roadways along arterial roads using reserved lanes, intersection signal improvements, and regulatory changes. In February 2024, City Council endorsed, in principle, the RapidTO: Surface Transit Network Plan (RapidTO) as the basis of Transportation Services' planning and programming of surface transit priority projects in Toronto. The report directed staff to initiate four new roadway-specific studies in the near term (2024-2025), one of which was the RapidTO: Dufferin Street project. In June and July 2026, Toronto will host six FIFA World Cup™ (FWC26) matches at Exhibition Place. Fort York National Historic Site and The Bentway are official venues for the FIFA Fan Festival™. The games are expected to draw over 300,000 visitors, and the mobility concept includes the provision of dedicated transit lanes to ensure frequent service along key roadways. As directed by Council in July 2024, the RapidTO: Dufferin Street and RapidTO: Bathurst Street projects have been accelerated as critical rou…

I am writing to request your support to have Staff review the City’s Foundation Drainage Policy (the “Policy”). Through working closely with City Staff from Toronto Water and Development Review, along with industry leaders, we have identified potential improvements to the Policy that could support the viability of certain development sites without compromising sewer capacity or water quality. In November 2021, City staff implemented a Foundation Drainage Policy to preserve sewer capacity and meet growing demands for the City’s sewer systems by implementing a requirement that foundation drainage be managed on-site rather than being discharged to the City’s sewer system. The Policy applies to all development applications under the Planning Act, except for Committee of Adjustment applications, effective January 1, 2022. The Policy, as currently applied and implemented, requires a technical investigation to determine if a proposed building foundation will be within groundwater. Where there will be groundwater present, the project is required to manage the groundwater on-site. This can be accomplished using watertight foundation construction. The foundatio…

Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 545, Licensing, requires a variety of businesses to obtain a licence from the City and comply with its regulations for the purpose of public health and safety, consumer protection, and nuisance control. Pet shops are currently the only type of business licensed by the City that keep animals on-site, leaving other pet-related businesses, such as kennels or grooming salons, unregulated. This report recommends amendments to Chapter 545, Licensing, Chapter 349, Animals, and Chapter 441, Fees and Charges, to modernize regulations for businesses that house or care for animals for business activities. The proposed changes aim to enhance animal welfare and facility standards, reduce nuisance concerns, improve consumer protection, and establish appropriate oversight at the municipal level. This report responds to two directives from City Council to (1) review possible amendments to introduce a new pet establishment business licence class to regulate all businesses for the sale of, grooming, training, daycare or the overnight boarding of animals, as well as review zoning by-law regulations for kennels and pet services in relation to the proposed licence ( 202…
