Final Report - Zoning By-law Amendment - 25 Fisherville Road
This application proposes to permit the construction of two residential buildings with 22-storeys and 12-storeys at 25 Fisherville Road in addition to two blocks of 3-storey townhouses. The proposed buildings and townhouse blocks would have a total Gross Floor Area (GFA) of 31,427 square metres and a total of 412 residential units. The existing 18-storey residential building with 214 units is proposed to be retained, for a total of 626 residential units on the subject property. The proposed new buildings would have a Floor Space Index (FSI) of 2.07 times the lot area and overall the site would have a FSI of 3.52 times the lot area. The proposal includes a 530 square metre public park and a 248 square metre privately-owned publicly accessible space (POPS) abutting the public park. A portion of the site, along the eastern limit, is proposed to be dedicated for a new north-south public street. The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2014), conforms with the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019), and is consistent with the general intent and purpose of the City of Toronto's Official Plan. This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law. The proposed development provides for a portion of a new public street, new public parkland, appropriately transitions to the abutting lower density residential uses, and provides for appropriate community benefits in exchange for an increase in height and density. The proposal will provide community benefits including a cash contribution for park, community facility, or public realm improvements, a public art contribution, additional parkland above the minimum required dedication, and new rental affordable housing units which will be secured through the Section 37 Agreement.

This report recommends approval of two Rental Housing Demolition applications to demolish and replace 64 rental dwelling units subject to conditions. Two Rental Housing Demolition applications at 100 Broadway Avenue, 223-225 Redpath Avenue and 227-233 Redpath Avenue seek approval to demolish four existing residential rental apartment buildings. Together, these four buildings contain a total of 64 rental dwelling units. All 64 of the units would be replaced by the same bedroom type and size within a purpose-built rental building at 100 Broadway Avenue. A Tenant Relocation and Assistance Plan will appropriately address the impacts on tenants. The rental building at 100 Broadway Avenue will contain 413 rental units. In addition to the 64 replacement rental units that will replace the existing rental units, the building will also be the recipient site for 260 other replacement units associated with three nearby rental housing demolition applications at 110-120 Broadway Avenue, 117-127 Broadway Avenue and 174-180 Broadway Avenue for a total of 324 replacement rental units. The remaining 89 rental units would be comprised of 50 new affordable rental units secured as part of the Section 37 contribution for the 110-120 Broadway Avenue development application and 39 market-rate rental units with unrestricted rents. This land is also subject to an application under the Planning Act for an amendment to the Zoning By-law, Application No. 15 228723 NNY 25 OZ, which was the subject of a settlement hearing at the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) (Case No. PL160910) on July 29, 2019. The LPAT issued a decision on August 9, 2019, approving the Zoning By-law Amendment in principle, with the final Tribunal Order being held until all outstanding matters, including the necessary agreements with the City, are secured. City Council endorsed the settlement on June 18 and 19, 2019 in advance of the LPAT settlement hearing, subject to conditions, including a rental replacement requirement. City Council also withheld its decision on both related Rental Housing Demolition applications until a Decision was issued by the LPAT on the related Zoning By-law Amendment application. The final LPAT Order was withheld until all outstanding matters, including the necessary agreements with the City, are secured, including rental housing matters.

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates bus service on Antibes Drive, City Council approval of this report is required. Transportation Services is requesting City Council to approve the road alteration on Antibes Drive (north-south segment), south of Antibes Drive (eastbound one-way segment).

The lack of proper signage and regulations have allowed drivers to park and on instances, abandon commercial vehicles along the east side of Flint Rd, regularly blocking access into and out of the multiple driveways servicing the addresses of 350 and 400 Flint Rd. These parked vehicles also constantly block the suggested bike routes along Flint Rd. It is because of the previously highlighted reasons that a change on on-street parking regulations, along the east side of Flint Rd., have been requested by the aforementioned business owners and evaluated by Transportation Staff.
North York Community Council: 1. Prohibited parking at all times on the east side of Flint Road, between the south end of Flint Road and Martin Ross Avenue.

Urgent Environmental Assessment Request - Downsview Avenue
During the last decade, the City of Toronto has seen a surge on property flooding incidents closely tied to powerful storm events. Ward 6 and adjacent Wards have been home to many of these incidents. Residents living west of the Humber River Hospital, and to the north and south areas of Wilson Ave., experienced extreme basement flooding from storm events in 2013 and 2018. Subsequently, almost all claims made by affected residents have been rejected. Currently these residents live in fear every time a storm is forecasted. The proximity to Black Creek, Highway 401, and the recently completed Humber River Hospital, have all reportedly contributed to the community's increasing flooding risks. The Ridge Park storm water management pond and related infrastructure were completed in 2013, while the hospital opened its door in 2015. These two new additions in the neighbourhood were quickly identified as key factors altering storm water flow in the area. As a result, the City has been working with the Ministry of Transportation to upgrade the ditch running parallel to Downsview Ave. between Ridge Road and Black Creek; and with Infrastructure Ontario to increase capacity at the Ridge Park storm water management pond. As of August 2019, the design for the pond was completed with expected construction to begin by the end of the year. Aside from land development and natural phenomena, aging sewer and storm water infrastructure have also been identified as flooding catalysts. Throughout the last decade, the City Of Toronto conducted a series of Environmental Assessment (EA) Studies to catalog existing infrastructure preventing or propelling flooding scenarios. These EAs ultimately proposed a series of sewer and storm management upgrades across several neighbourhoods in Toronto. The Downsview Avenue neighbourhood, was included in Study Area 16 (Black Creek/Highway 401/Dufferin Street). The study began in 2007 and concluded in 2012. At the time, the contracted consulting firm, Stantec, discounted the need for flooding prevention measures. Since the latest Environmental Assessment Study, the area has seen significant development and flooding incidents have worsened. On April 29, 2019, one hundred and fifteen residents (115) provided a petition to our office requesting that the below-grade infrastructure around and west of the Humber River Hospital, be assessed and upgraded. Based on the information stated above, our office requests that the residents' concerns be addressed with urgency.
North York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Toronto Water to report back on the feasibility and cost of conducting a localized Basement Flooding Environmental Assessment Study of the area bounded by Petherhill Avenue to the east, Highway 401 to the south, Jane Street to the west and Wilson Avenue to the north; commencing no later than January 2020.

On the morning of Tuesday, September 10th, 2019, a pedestrian was tragically struck and killed by a cement truck making a right turn onto Erskine Avenue from Yonge Street. As you may know, Erskine Avenue is situated in the Yonge-Eglinton neighbourhood - an area that is developing at an unprecedented pace. At the time of writing, there are more than 50 construction projects underway in this neighbourhood. I have heard from many Erskine Avenue residents that their residential street has become a thoroughfare for trucks, construction vehicles, and drivers looking to avoid congestion at the Yonge-Eglinton intersection. Erskine Avenue is located within the radius of the John Fisher Junior Public School Safety Zone.
North York Community Council: 1. Directed Transportation Services staff to undertake an urgent Vulnerable Road User Safety Review at the intersection of Yonge Street and Erskine Avenue with emphasis to mitigate construction traffic infiltration on residential side streets and that Staff should consider all options to improve pedestrian safety including temporary turning movement restrictions for heavy vehicles, additional police enforcement, and provision of a Paid Duty Officer (PDO) as required.

On August 9th, 2019 I held a meeting in Lawrence Heights with residents and members of the LHION Safety Committee in Lawrence Heights to provide an update on the work the City has been doing and getting feedback from residents. This is a most challenging time for our City and local community, as we experience this explosion of gun violence. In addition, I had organized a walkabout with Transportation Staff at Lawrence Heights on August 16, 2019 with local residents to help identify some of the possible enhancements that can provide immediate benefits to the community. In consideration of local community and residents having expressed great concern towards traffic calming measures that can be taken, I therefore ask that City Staff report back to North York Community Council with a report on their neighbourhood level study of the Lawrence Heights with specific focus towards traffic calming measures.
North York Community Council: 1.

Saving Affordable Housing Units (Tippett Road Regeneration Area) - 30 Tippett Road
The lands municipally known as 30 Tippett Road are being developed in accordance with the City of Toronto's vision for the Tippett Road Regeneration Area, including the provision of 50 affordable purpose-built rental units and 50 affordable ownership units as part of the Investment in Affordable Housing Program (IAH). This iteration of the IAH began in 2014 and expires at the end of this year. The federal and provincial component of funding is time-limited and will be surrendered by the City if it is not utilized by the end of the year. Tippett South Inc. is under contract to deliver the loan funding for the City. The funding is secured from the province by way of an agreement of purchase and sale with eligible purchasers, and all units are now under firm and binding agreements of purchase and sale. The mortgage approvals for all firm and binding agreements of purchase and sale for the 50 affordable ownership units were issued under a pricing model that reflects current development charge rates. If these units are subject to the scheduled development charge rate increase on November 1, 2019, these units' price will increase and the mortgages will not hold.
