Authorization to Reallocate Section 37 Funds to STEPS for a Mural at Wellesley Station - Councillor Chris Moise, seconded by Councillor Shelley Carroll

However, further discussion with the private property owner and a shift in the direction of the Church-Wellesley Village Business Improvement Area, the project's leadership will now transition to STEPS Public Art and the Toronto Transit Commission. This motion is necessary to redirect the previously approved funds to STEPS Public Art.

deleting the words "the Business Improvement Area" after the words "subject to" and replacing them with "STEPS Public Art"; so that Parts 3 and 4 now read as follows: 3. City Council increase the 2024 Operating Budget for Non-Program by $80,000.00, fully funded by Section 37 (Planning Act Reserve Fund) community benefits at 55-61 Charles Street East (Source Account: XR3026-3701045) for the purpose of forwarding funds to STEPS Public Art for a new mural above Wellesley Station (16 Wellesley Street East) as outlined in Appendix A (Cost Centre: NP2161). 4. City Council direct that the $80,000.00 be forwarded to STEPS Public Art, subject to STEPS Public Art signing an Undertaking governing the use of the funds and the financial reporting requirements. 2. City Council direct that the use of Section 37 community benefits be prominently recognized in documents and promotional materials, including on any construction hoarding, in consultation with the Ward Councillor as a requirement within the Undertaking between the City and STEPS.
