Rob Ford served on Toronto City Council for nearly 15 years, serving as the Councillor for Etobicoke North for 10 years, and as Mayor for 4 years. Sadly, shortly after being re-elected as a City Councillor in 2014, Rob Ford passed away. Historically, the City of Toronto has recognized former Mayors with commemorative renamings which honour their service and spirit. For example, Mel Lastman Square at the North York Civic Centre, Barbara Hall Park, and June Rowlands Park. All of those who served with Rob Ford on Council knew that he had two passions – representing his constituents not only across the city but in particular in his home community of Etobicoke, and football. As Centennial Park undergoes a significant reimagining through the Centennial Park Master Plan, approved by City Council in 2021, the time is appropriate to consider renaming the Centennial Park Stadium the 'Rob Ford Stadium' in recognition of his decade and a half of public service.

Institutionalizing seniors takes older adults away from their existing support networks and is a costly way of providing housing. Supporting our seniors to age in place as an alternative will require innovative housing models, infrastructure, and coordinated services to ensure their independence, safety, health and social well-being are being supported. A Naturally Occurring Retirement Community is typically a multi-unit residential building that over time may naturally come to house a high density of older adults. In 2021, approximately 489 residential buildings were characterized as Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities in Toronto, housing 70,013 adults aged 65 years and older, and 30,346 adults aged 80 years and older. Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities are paths for older adults to age in place, while providing opportunities to realign the delivery of existing health and social services in a more efficient and innovative way. In addition, Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities programs strengthen and sustain healthy communities of older adults by addressing important determinants of healthy aging such as isolation, nutrition, physical fitness, and sense of pur…

This report recommends changes to Zoning By-law 569-2013 (‘the city-wide Zoning By-law’) to be advanced as part of the first phase of work to simplify and modernize low-rise residential zoning regulations. The recommended zoning amendments would remove barriers, ease administration, and enable the creation of more housing as part of the Housing Action Plan to achieve or exceed the provincial housing target of 285,000 new homes over the next 10 years. As described in the June 19, 2023 Proposals Report ( Item PH5.5 ), this study organizes proposed changes by three key themes: ‘simplification’, ‘harmonization’, and ‘modernization’. The recommended ‘simplification’ zoning changes advanced in this report include updating and clarifying zoning regulations for multiple secondary suites in one building in the R zone to reduce confusion, and clarify the distinction between secondary suites, multiplexes and low-rise apartment buildings. This includes the introduction of new conversion regulations to preserve existing permissions that allow detached houses and semi-detached houses to be converted to contain multiple units. The recom…

Existing buildings are Toronto’s largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for approximately 58 percent of total community-wide emissions. The City’s Net Zero Existing Buildings Strategy focuses on reducing emissions from existing buildings with the ultimate target of achieving net zero emissions by 2040, and an interim target of cutting emissions nearly in half by 2030, relative to 2008 levels. Achieving these ambitious targets will require the City to take nine key actions identified in the Net Zero Existing Buildings Strategy. Mandatory emissions performance standards for all existing buildings that will require improved emissions performance over time is the most critical of these actions to drive transformation. In the Updated Long-Term Financial Plan (2023.EX7.1), staff recommended the expedited introduction of a mandatory emissions performance standards by-law which is necessary to drive the scale and depth of emissions reductions in the buildings sector, including residential, commercial, industrial and institutional buildings in the City of Toronto. Introduction of these requirements would establish the City of Toronto as a leader in its commitmen…
