Throughout 2024, Corporate Real Estate Management finalized the centralization of all City Divisions into the Safety and Compliance program. Corporate Real Estate Management has made significant progress implementing the Master Fire Program, awarded new competitive procurements for inspections, tested and maintained services, and recruited new staff to enable the hybrid service model. In collaboration with the City of Toronto's Auditor General's Office, staff have confirmed that the requirement to report annually to City Council on compliance levels stemming from AU13.11 has been fulfilled. Since the Auditor General's Office's report in 2017, the City has seen a steady increase in fire and life safety compliance rates, maintaining over 90 percent compliance for the past two years. Given this progress, starting in 2026, staff will report compliance rates internally to all City Divisions, impacted Agencies, Boards, and Corporations, and will provide this information to Councillor Offices upon request. The Auditor General's Office is supportive of this approach.
Staff recommended
The Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management recommends that: 1. The General Government Committee receive the report for information.
