The purpose of this report is to advise City Council on the feasibility of mandating Lateral Protective Devices (‘side guards’) on all commercial trucks operating within the City of Toronto, including retrofitting the City's fleet. Side guards are protective railings or bars mounted on the sides of large trucks between the axles to prevent individuals from being pulled under a truck’s wheels in the event of a collision. Research from various sources based in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Netherlands indicate that side guards could reduce cyclist fatalities by approximately 62 percent, pedestrian fatalities by 20 percent, and serious injuries for cyclists by 6 percent. However, there are currently no federal or provincial requirements for vehicles to be fitted with side guards. As the federal government sets national vehicle safety standards, the City of Toronto does not have the jurisdiction or authority to mandate all commercial vehicles operating within the City of Toronto be equipped with side guards. However, City Council, through Vision Zero 2.0, authorized the implementation of side guards and a comprehensive fleet safety and accountability program for…

Majority required - IE18.1 - Adopt the item as amended
On March 15, 2024, a Zoning By-law Amendment application was submitted to permit the construction of three residential buildings having 44, 35 and 9 storeys in height on the eastern portion of the subject site while retaining the existing 12 storey apartment building on the western portion of the site. Building A and B will be connected with a podium ranging in height from 2 to 6 storeys. Building C will be a standalone mid-rise building ranging in height from 4 to 9 storeys. The proposed buildings will have a gross floor area of 75,251 square metres which combines with the existing building for a total gross floor area of 97,115 square metres and an overall floor space index of 5.16. On October 9, 2024, the applicant appealed the Zoning By-law Amendment application to the Ontario Land Tribunal (the "OLT") due to City Council not making a decision within the 90-day time frame established in the Planning Act. This Report recommends that the City Solicitor with the appropriate City staff attend the OLT hearing in opposition to the application in its current form, and to continue discussions with the applicant to resolve outstanding issues.

Majority required - SC18.3 - Adopt the item
As part of the 2023 Housing Action Plan, City Council adopted a New Regulatory Framework for Multi-Tenant Housing ("MTH") and recognized this form of rental housing stock as a critical component of affordable housing options. This program brought new incentives and other financial supports to assist property owners in obtaining a licence for this housing in all areas of the City. In response to MM20.30 Multi-Tenant Housing Framework: Parks Levy Exemption and Framework Application, this report seeks Council authority to exempt dwelling rooms in a multi-tenant house from parkland dedication requirements in Article III of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 415, being the Parkland By-law ("Article III"). This amendment aligns with Council's priority for the development of this housing type and other financial considerations provided by the City. Following Council's recent adoption of MM22.10 Supporting Transitional Housing in Toronto - 3 Cadillac Avenue (Neshama Hospice) and site-specific parkland dedication exemption for the development of a non-profit hospice, this report also seeks approval to apply the exemption to non-profit hospices city-wide to reflect Council's support of this typ…
