2. City Council request the Government of Ontario to expand the Community Sport and Recreation Investment Fund to include one Stream 1 and one Stream 2 funded project per Toronto ward, with Council endorsement, given that all 25 City of Toronto wards exceed the 100,000-person population threshold for a "Big City" in Ontario.

On the agenda

As the city filed it

As part of the 2024 Ontario Budget, the province launched a cost-shared program, Community Sport and Recreation Infrastructure Fund that provides funding to municipalities to revitalize sport and recreation facilities. Each municipality is allowed to advance one project per stream. Under Stream 1: Repair and Rehabilitation, I am recommending that the City advance the basketball court rehabilitation work planned at Jack Goodlad Park.
