Amending Item 2025.TE19.9 - 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue - Zoning By-law Amendment Application - by Councillor Brad Bradford, seconded by Councillor James Pasternak
The purpose of this motion is to request City Council amend its previous decision on Item TE19.9 to add recommendations to facilitate the delegated payment-in-lieu of bike parking program process, including associated revisions to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment. On February 5, 2025, City Council adopted as amended the Zoning By-law Amendment for the lands municipally known as 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue. As part of Council's decision, recommendation 1 directed that the draft zoning by-law be revised to increase the maximum building height to 41 storeys, along with associated performance standard changes including overall building height, number of units, unit breakdown and gross floor area, and a revised Schedule A to the Zoning By-law Amendment to include the community benefits and legal conveniences. The Bill was withheld pending the applicant entering into an agreement under Section 37(3) of the Planning Act, as it read the day before Section 1 of Schedule 17 to the COVID-19 Economic Recovery Act, 2020 came into force, to secure affordable housing and rental housing commitments, Council's approval of the associated rental housing demolition application, and resolution of servicing matters. The draft Zoning By-law Amendment has been revised in accordance with Council's direction. The applicant has requested a revision to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment to facilitate the delegated payment-in-lieu of bike parking program process. This process is delegated to staff for sites within City-wide By-law 569-2013, however the zoning for this site remains subject to the former East York Zoning By-law so additional recommendations are required to enable the delegated process in this instance. Reason for Urgency: This matter is urgent and time sensitive as the revisions directed by City Council include affordable housing obligations in Schedule A of the zoning by-law, and the updates to cash in lieu of bike parking requirements will allow for expedited implementation.

Toronto Needs Container-Friendly Trees as an Option - by Councillor Lily Cheng, seconded by Councillor Dianne Saxe
Residents of Willowdale continue to feel discouraged by the state of planters lining Yonge Street, an important economic corridor in our city, home to the largest concentration of office towers outside the downtown core. Currently, a large majority of planters are filled with weeds. This cannot continue, especially as the timeline for Transform Yonge remains unclear. This motion supports the continued work on 2026.MM42.36, in particular, the need for a wider range of tree options to allow for better survivability in older planters. This also moves us closer to a beautiful city! Reason for Urgency: This matter is urgent because staff are already carrying out the work for MM42.36 and this motion will supplement and give further direction to that important work.

Granting Members of Council Access to all Toronto Parking Authority Board Meeting Materials - by Councillor Paula Fletcher, seconded by Councillor Frances Nunziata
At its meeting on November 12 and 13, 2025, City Council amended the composition of the Toronto Parking Authority Board to be composed entirely of City staff.

Reimbursement for Works Associated with a New Street Connection of Olympic Garden Drive to Yonge Street - by Councillor Lily Cheng, seconded by Councillor Dianne Saxe
As part of a plan of subdivision application for the lands at 5799 Yonge Street, a new public road (Olympic Garden Drive) was approved through the lands connecting Cummer Avenue to the north, and Yonge Street in the southwest part of the site, at the intersection of Yonge Street and Narges Drive. The design, construction, and applicable restoration of the road was secured through the executed subdivision agreement. To facilitate the construction of the Olympic Garden Drive, a portion of the adjacent lands municipally known as 5795 Yonge Street was acquired by the City, as authorized by City Council. Development charge credits were previously authorized in respect of the land acquisition costs associated with the expropriation. The acquisition of lands required for the road connection also necessitates the relocation and reconstruction of certain existing access, service and utility infrastructure serving 5795 Yonge Street. These works are required to accommodate the construction of Olympic Garden Drive and restore access and servicing impacted by the road project. In the normal delivery of a City road project, such relocation and reconstruction works would generally form part of the road construction costs required to deliver the infrastructure project. The subdivision agreement (as per Attachment 1) includes provisions related to potential development charge credits for certain road, water and sewer infrastructure works associated with the development. The works that are the subject of this motion relate exclusively to the road project and associated impacts arriving the from acquisition of land required for Olympic Garden Drive. No water or sewer development charges credits are being requested or provided. This motion seeks Council authority to provide development charge credits for eligible road-related costs directly attributable to the relocation or reconstruction of services, utilities, access and related works required as a result of the acquisition of lands necessary to complete Olympic Garden Drive. All other costs associated with the development and construction of Olympic Garden Drive, including the signalization of the intersection and other works required to service the development, remain the responsibility of the developer. Reason for Urgency: This Motion is urgent as the July 29 to 31, 2026 meeting represents the final opportunity for City Council to provide the necessary authority to facilitate the timely completion of Olympic Garden Drive and its connection to Cummer Ave before the commencement of the Council recess and election period. Absent Council's authorization at this time, the project may experience significant delays, resulting in the continued closure of the roadway connection, deferred public benefits, and potential impacts to traffic in the community. Advancing this Motion will provide certainty to all parties, enable staff to proceed with the reimbursement framework contemplated through the Subdivision Agreement, and support the timely delivery of a public asset that has already been approved by Council and secured through the development approvals process.
Staff recommendation as filed
Councillor Lily Cheng, seconded by Councillor Dianne Saxe, recommends that: 1. City Council approve a development charge credit against the Roads component of development charges for the eligible road-related costs associated with the relocation or reconstruction of services, utilities, access and related works required to facilitate construction of Olympic Garden Drive and arising from the acquisition of land required for the road connection, with eligible expenses to be determined to the satisfaction of the Director, Engineering Review, Development Review, and to the satisfaction of the General Manager of Transportation Services. The development charge credit shall be in an amount that is the lesser of the cost to the Owner of eligible works noted above, as approved by the Director, Engineering Review, Development Review and to the satisfaction of the General Manager of Transportation Services, and the Roads component of development charges payable for the development in accordance with the City's Development Charges By-law, as may be amended from time to time, net of any credits previously provided for the land expropriation. 2. City Council authorize the Executive Director, Development Review, in consultation with the General Manager, Transportation Services and the City Solicitor, to negotiate and execute any agreements, amendments to existing agreements, and ancillary documents required to implement the development charge credits authorized by this motion, including provisions respecting the determination of eligible costs, documentation requirements, timing and manner in which development charges credits may be provided, and any other terms and conditions deemed appropriate by the Executive Director, Development Review and the City Solicitor, including provisions of development charges credits in phases tied to project milestones, including but not limited to the completion of design, construction works and the connection of the new street to Cummer Avenue.
