On February 29th, 2024, Executive Committee adopted EX12.1 - Vehicle-for-Hire and Private Transportation Industries Update Request, requesting staff to analyze driver wages in the vehicle-for-hire industry, which includes taxicabs, limousines and private transportation companies. A team of researchers specializing in research and analysis of the vehicle-for-hire industry in Toronto and internationally, consisting of Dr. Mischa Young from the Université de l’Ontario Français and Dr. Steven Farber and Dr. Mashrur Rahman from the University of Toronto, were retained to complete an assessment of the vehicle-for-hire industry to inform Council about the current state of driver wages. This academic study is supplemented by information about wages and incomes received during public consultations directly from drivers, companies and other stakeholders. The researchers found that the median PTC driver gross earnings was $33.52 per hour in 2023 and $33.18 per hour in 2024 for every engaged hour of work, which includes the time between when a driver accepts a trip request and drops the passenger off.

City Council on July 24 and 25, 2024, referred Item CC20.3 to the Economic and Community Development Committee for consideration. Summary from the report (July 17, 2024) from the Ombudsman on Ombudsman Toronto Housing Unit Status Report 2024. Pursuant to section 170(2) of the City of Toronto Act, 2006 (COTA), the purpose of this report is to provide City Council with a status report describing the activities of Ombudsman Toronto’s Housing Unit since its creation in July 2023. In less than a year, the Housing Unit has been fully staffed, developed its infrastructure, launched two investigations, provided consultations to City staff, and met with more than 170 people through their engagement work. Notably, the Housing Unit has also developed a framework that uses the concept of housing as a human right to guide their investigations, the first of its kind for an Ombudsman organization in Canada.

The purpose of this report is to provide City Council with the Auditor General’s 2025 Work Plan, which contains projects that are in progress or will begin in 2025, and many new projects on the horizon to commence in either late 2025 or 2026. These audit projects are identified through a City-wide risk and opportunities assessment process that is conducted every five years and updated annually for changes in emerging issues, priorities, and trends in allegations made to the Fraud and Waste Hotline.

This report seeks authority for the City, as landlord, to enter into a nominal lease agreement (the "Land Lease") with Community Music Schools of Toronto (the "Tenant") in respect of a portion of the property at 1785 Finch Avenue West (the "Leased Premises"), to design, build, finance, and operate a new not-for-profit music school. The Leased Premises is a portion of the current parking surface, along with an unused loading dock area, of the site of Toronto Public Library's ("TPL") York Woods Branch ("York Woods Library"). With City Council endorsement and direction to explore the feasibility of building a music school next to York Woods Library, City staff now recommend advancing this site for the proposed new music school which will serve the Jane Finch community. The TPL Board supports the proposed Land Lease to the Tenant. Social Development, Finance, and Administration and Economic Development and Culture have advised on the community consultation process, by engaging with a third-party consultant and the Tenant. Additionally, the proposed development of the music school in the Jane Finch community aligns with Action 1.13 of the Jane Finch Community Development Plan ( EC10.1…

Toronto continues to face an unprecedented housing affordability crisis across the housing continuum, with a lack of deeply affordable and supportive homes for those with low-incomes, and high rents affecting middle-income earners who aspire to live and work in the city. In Fall 2023, City Council adopted two key reports related to housing delivery: - Item EX9.3, which set the stage for the generational change to transform and strengthen Toronto’s housing system and expedite delivery of the HousingTO and Housing Action Plan targets. - Item EX10.2, which aligned the mandates of CreateTO and Toronto Community Housing (TCHC) and directed these organizations to work with the City on the delivery of the City's housing plans and targets, including new and explicit language on expectations and scope for greater alignment. This report outlines additional steps to advance the City’s role as a Public Developer and supporter of partner projects, by bringing a singular focus to City-led and supported housing development, and strengthening coordination between the City, CreateTO and TCHC to achieve the City's affordable rental housing goals. Specifically, the City will increase its…
