The Strong Cities Network is an independent, apolitical, global network of more than 220 cities dedicated to addressing all forms and manifestations of hate, extremism and polarisation that can lead to violence, within a human rights-based framework. In November 2023, City Council adopted MM12.12 - Endorsing Toronto as a Signatory of the Strong Cities Network Fourth Global Summit New York City Mayoral Declaration in Fighting Hate, Extremism and Polarisation. By joining the Strong Cities Network the City of Toronto will strengthen its work as an inclusive and welcoming city. Hosting a future summit in October 2025 would strengthen the City of Toronto’s relationship with other cities and further support our commitment to keeping the city safe from hate. There are no expenses required for the City of Toronto to join the Strong Cities Network as a member but there would be some in kind and/or financial commitments to host the Strong Cities Summit in October 2025. There are conditions that must be agreed upon to become a member.

Toronto is experiencing a housing and homelessness crisis. Communities across Canada continue to see increases in unsheltered homelessness and encampments since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Encampments are a symptom of the housing crisis, shelter demand that exceeds availability, increasing costs of living, inadequate income supports, and other social crises such as the drug toxicity and mental health crisis. The City believes that permanent, adequate, affordable, and supportive housing is the solution to homelessness and is committed to advancing the progressive realization of the right to adequate housing as set out in the Toronto Housing Charter. Encampments do not meet the human right to housing and are not a long-term solution to homelessness. While the City continues to work towards permanent housing solutions, it is critical that we continue to support people living in encampments, who are among the most vulnerable in our city. The purpose of this report is to present the City’s strategic approach to encampments that is grounded in a human rights approach while supporting the safety and well-being of people living in encampments and surrounding communities.…

This report responds to City Council's request to conduct a governance and operational review of Sankofa Square[1], including but not limited to considerations such as publicly operating Sankofa Square in the same manner as Nathan Phillips Square (NPS). The review included a jurisdictional scan and engagement with Board members. Key findings of the review include: -Sankofa Square has a broader mandate than the City's civic squares which includes economic development and community and commercial objectives. -Sankofa Square's governance and operations model is similar to other North American squares that have broad mandates. -Sankofa Square is mandated to be financially self-sufficient while the civic squares are not and therefore Sankofa Square can generate revenues from advertisements, sponsorships and commercial events. Based on the key findings of the review, it is recommended that Sankofa Square continue its current board of management governance structure. Departing from this structure and operating Sankofa Square in the same manner as NPS could constrain programming, limit its ability to conduct fundraising, generate revenues, and potentially increase the City of Toronto&rsqu…

This Motion will give the City Solicitor authority to appeal the Committee of Adjustment’s decision approving the minor variance application at 222 Rosedale Heights Drive (A0257/24TEY); to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body to oppose the development proposed in Application A0257/24TEY; to retain outside consultants as necessary; and to negotiate a settlement of the appeal. On June 11, 2024, the Committee of Adjustment approved an application brought by the agent of the owner of 222 Rosedale Heights Drive for a proposal to alter the existing two-storey detached dwelling on the site, and for which three minor variances from City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013 were sought. A copy of the Committee of Adjustment’s decision on this application is attached as Attachment 1. The proposed development at 222 Rosedale Heights Drive contemplates encroachment into the minimum Tree Protection Zone of a mature private tree located on a neighbouring property, 11 Harper Avenue, and which is in very close proximity to another neighbouring property, 15 Harper Avenue. The proposed development’s extension of the two-storey addition may also result in impacts to the tree’s crown.…

Toronto is well-known for our incredible food scene, and for our residents' long held and strong opinions for where to get their favourite dishes. In an effort to support our small businesses, Business Improvement Areas, and to encourage Torontonians in celebrating their favourite restaurants — the City should host the first ever Toronto International Pizza Festival. Our City has incredible street festivals and food-related events that draw hundreds of thousands of visitors to locations across Toronto in order to experience the culinary excellence of Toronto. With thousands of pizzerias and related restaurants this festival provides a unique opportunity to encourage Torontonians to support small and local businesses, while also giving residents the opportunity to promote the many traditional and unique styles of pizza that can be found across Toronto. The reason for urgency is to ensure that City staff has sufficient time to process this request by the September meeting of City Council.
