A number of families have accepted the city’s encouragement to build laneway homes in Ward 11, whose only road access is via a public lane. However, the city does not provide snow clearing services to such lanes, creating serious access issues for their residents during severe winter weather. In 2026.IE29.1, City staff declined to recommend snow removal for the 2,744 public laneways in the City of Toronto, but did not provide any alternative solution for even pedestrian access to the comparatively small number of laneway houses. This motion is focussed on a small number of laneway houses whose residents had serious access issues during winter weather in 2025 and 2026.

Residents who live on Creek Place in Ward 19 have faced long-standing challenges related to road servicing and access to their properties. My office has been working with these residents to implement a sustainable solution to these challenges. Creek Place is currently classified as a laneway, but it demonstrates several unique characteristics. While four properties located at the northern end of the street have rear access from Creek Place while fronting onto Dawes Road, an additional nine properties at the southern end rely on Creek Place as their primary means of access. At its entrance from Donora Drive, the right-of-way is approximately four to six metres wide, which is typical of a laneway, and runs behind the four properties fronting on Dawes Road. Further south, the right-of-way widens to approximately eight metres, consistent with the width of a local road, in the section serving the properties that depend on Creek Place for primary access. I have worked with Transportation Services staff to develop this motion so that staff can undertake the work necessary to reclassify Creek Place as a local road and to ensure that these residents have access to the maintenance services,…

Hanlan’s Point Beach is Canada’s oldest surviving queer space and the site of Canada’s first Gay Pride gathering. The beach and surrounding landscape continue to serve as an important public space of cultural, recreational, and natural heritage for Toronto. The site is also experiencing shoreline erosion, dune degradation, loss of usable beach area, and pressure on existing natural areas. Timely planting and sand renourishment are required to support shoreline resilience, public access, ecological restoration, and the preservation of Hanlan’s Point Beach cultural heritage. The City of Toronto recognizes the tireless work of advocates for this unique space, including the Hanlan’s Point Working Group, Island Working Group, Indigenous Advisory Circle, and Friends of Hanlan’s. Reason for Urgency: Planning work for planting and beach renourishment at Hanlan’s Point is already underway and additional direction is needed.

The AIDS Memorial (Toronto), located in Barbara Hall Park in the Church-Wellesley Village, is one of Toronto’s most significant sites of public remembrance. First emerging in 1988 as a community act of naming, mourning, and public witness, and made permanent in 1993, The AIDS Memorial centres the names of people who died of AIDS. It continues to receive names and remains a living memorial to a continuing epidemic, a national loss, and the dignity of people living with HIV. The memorial is located in Ward 13, but its meaning is not limited to one ward. It is a civic memorial of national significance. There are people living with HIV, and people who have died of AIDS, in every ward of this city. The memorial holds grief, history, activism, and memory from across Toronto, Ontario, and Canada. More than 21,000 Canadians have died of AIDS-related illness, and more than 65,000 people in Canada are currently living with HIV. The impact of HIV/AIDS has been borne especially by communities already facing stigma, exclusion, and institutional neglect, including gay and bisexual men, trans people, African, Caribbean and Black communities, Indigenous communities, sex workers, people who…

The Church Street Pedestrianization Pilot, launched with overwhelming support from local businesses and the Church Wellesley Village Business Improvement Area aims to transform Church Street into a vibrant, car-free community space. A core focus of this pilot is improving street-level accessibility along a corridor where many older storefronts are physically inaccessible due to steps and barriers. By closing the street to vehicles, an unobstructed emergency lane will run down the centre lanes to serve as the primary pedestrian walkway and sidewalk. Local businesses are enthusiastically extending their outdoor patios directly onto the curblane, creating new, seamless access points for visitors. To guarantee safe navigation, each patio will maintain a strict one-meter clearance zone, ensuring an entirely unobstructed path for mobility devices, wheelchairs, and emergency personnel. This motion will provide the General Manager, Transportation Services additional authority to make real-time adjustments to traffic management and allow a flexible, adaptive approach to optimize a highly accessible streetscape that fully supports the community and local economy. This motion is urgent as th…
