This report responds to MM31.12 and will support the North York Harvest Food Bank in meeting rising food scarcity needs in Toronto. This report seeks City Council's authority for the adoption of the necessary By-law to designate a portion of the property owned by TK Group Limited and leased to North York Harvest Food Bank as a Municipal Capital Facility and to provide an exemption for municipal taxes and education taxes. The Municipal Capital Facility Agreement authorized by the By-law will provide an exemption for approximately 31,830 square feet plus ancillary parking at 4050 Chesswood Drive. This property is eligible to be deemed as a Municipal Capital Facility due to the provision of social and health services.

The City has committed to a comprehensive plan to build new affordable and supportive housing as part of its HousingTO 2020-2030 Action Plan. The City has also committed to the expansion of its purpose-built emergency homeless shelters through the Homelessness Services Capital Infrastructure Strategy (HCSIS). This expansion is necessary as the City’s shelter system is at capacity, people are turned away from full shelters on a nightly basis, hundreds of individuals are sleeping in encampments, and thousands more are chronically underhoused. While new shelters have been met with mixed response in their planned locations, a small group of people are forcing the City to defend itself in court. This civil litigation has been brought by various plaintiffs wishing to arrest new housing and shelter projects, including at locations on Cummer Avenue, Adelaide Street West, Wardlaw Crescent, Sheppard Avenue East and Third Street. Shelter operators and community engagement consultants contracted by the City of Toronto have also been named as defendants in these cases. These operators and consultants have been acting in the public interest, as directed and required pursuant to their cont…

The Heat Relief Strategy guides the City of Toronto's response to hot weather, with a goal of minimizing the health impacts of extreme heat. Its primary focus is to provide tailored relief to populations most vulnerable to heat. It is active during the heat season, which runs annually from May 15 to September 30. This report will respond to City Council direction MM31.21, which requested City staff to review City’s Heat Relief Strategy (the Strategy) and provide recommendations for enhancement, and MM31.26,, which directed staff improve timely and accurate public updates about pool and recreation facility closures. Toronto is increasingly experiencing the impacts of climate change, including more frequent, prolonged and extreme heat events. The summer of 2025 was among the hottest in the past decade, with a total of 29 days under a Heat Warning issued by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). The first Heat Warning in June 2025 was marked by high heat, with temperatures reaching 34.5°C, and Humidex values that reached 46, the highest Humidex ever recorded in Toronto for the month of June. The severity of this event highlighted areas where the City's response measu…

Extreme heat is Toronto’s most urgent climate threat, and excessive indoor temperatures are of particular concern for tenants in leased residential premises without cooling equipment like air conditioning (A/C) or heat pumps. Unlike heating, cooling is not considered a vital service[1] by the Government of Ontario. This report responds to City Council’s endorsement in December 2024 ( 2024.PH17.5 ) of a maximum indoor temperature standard of 26 Degrees Celsius for leased residential premises and cooling rooms, and direction for staff to report back on implementation and next steps. In 2025, staff conducted comprehensive stakeholder engagement and procured C40 Cities to examine this topic in Toronto and other North American cities. Feedback and expertise suggest that a maximum indoor temperature will provide health and safety benefits for tenants. However, implementation costs and burdens to rental housing providers that do not currently provide air conditioning are a significant barrier, and costs are expected to be passed to tenants. Any new indoor temperature requirements must also consider relevant provincial legislation, such as the Building Code Act, 1992. As a res…

On December 7, on a cold morning before the sunrise, hundreds of eager transit aficionados and riders gathered to launch Line 6, the Finch West Light Rail Transit. Opening a new, long-awaited transit line is a big moment for our City. We must ensure the new Finch West Light Rail Transit lives up to the promise of getting our City moving. The Finch West Finch West Light Rail Transit is projected to have 51,000 riders each day, and bring 230,000 people within walking distance of rapid transit. It will move generations of people across the northwest of our City, connecting them to jobs, education, family and friends with greater ease. It will help reduce congestion on our roads and help people choose transit over driving. To succeed at the above, the Finch West Finch West Light Rail Transit has to work well. It must be fast and convenient to use. Now that the Toronto Transit Commission has full operational control of the line, the City can help play a role in speeding it up. Transit riders and experts have rightly pointed out that the Finch West Light Rail Transit does not have the active signal priority that’s critical to the successful operation of surface-level rapid transit…
