PA20.1adopted
Toronto Parking Authority's (TPA) operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was $30.5 million; +$0.4 million versus plan and -$0.3 million versus 2025. Total revenue was $87.2 million, $0.3 million below plan and $0.5 million above prior year, while combined parking and Bike Share trips reached 14.5 million, 0.9 million below plan and 0.4 million below prior year. Strong Off-Street Parking, Bike Share, and other revenue performance partially offset weaker On-Street results. Bike Share exceeded ridership targets, successfully supported FIFA events through enhanced valet services, and remains on track for another record ridership year. On-Street revenue was $31.4 million, $2.3 million below plan, driven by 0.9 million fewer trips, primarily due to two major winter snow events and FIFA-related road closures in June. Based on strong post-winter trends, management expects the revenue gap to close by year-end. Total operating costs were $56.8 million; $0.7 million lower than plan driven by reduced volume-related costs, warranty cost reductions on legacy parking equipment, and indirect costs stemming from headcount savings. As of June 30th, 2026, Toronto Parking Authority has spent $17.0 million in capital projects, with another $28.0 million already committed through purchase orders. Building on the momentum from past three years of 80 percent plus spend rate, we are on track to deliver 95 percent or more of the Toronto Parking Authority led capital plan of $42.5 million. Management is forecasting to deliver on plan full-year 2026 financial performance targets.

The Buy Ontario Act (Public Sector Procurement), 2025 ("the Act"), establishes a new provincial framework intended to strengthen Ontario's economy by prioritizing Ontario- and Canadian-made goods and services in public sector procurement. Effective July 1, 2026, municipal local boards ("Municipal Sector Entities") have been prescribed by regulation as Public Sector Entities under the Act. Municipal Sector Entities are required to comply with procurement directives issued by the Management Board of Cabinet. This report provides an overview of the Act and its associated Municipal Buy Ontario Procurement Directive ("the Directive"), and outlines policy amendments and plans to bring the Toronto Parking Authority ("TPA") into compliance. For Fleet Vehicles, the Directive includes a requirement to purchase Made-in-Ontario Vehicles, followed by vehicles from Ontario Vehicle Producers (those with at least 1,500 Ontario jobs), subject to availability and operational feasibility. For Capital Infrastructure, which includes Construction as defined in the Directive, the Directive introduces a new obligation for suppliers to disclose whether Major Goods and Services are from Ontario or Canada through the required submission of Domestic Supply Chain Plans as part of the procurement process, along with prescribed bid evaluation approaches that either prefer Ontario-Made Goods and Services and Canadian-Made Goods and Services or a commitment approach to achieving the same. At its meeting on May 20 and 21, 2026, the City Council adopted measures towards this purpose. Toronto Parking Authority Management is proposing to adopt similar measures, as adopted by the City of Toronto in its Schedule B to Chapter 195 - Procurement.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Amended Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 5-7: Procurement by adding Appendix C as shown in Attachment 1 to the report (July 8, 2026,) from the President Toronto Parking Authority, and directed the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to enact Policy Resolution 5-7: Procurement, as amended, effective June 1, 2026.

Delegation of Authority Update: May 1, 2026 - June 30, 2026
At its meeting of November 8, 2021, the Board of Directors, Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) reviewed, approved and endorsed an update to Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 5-10: Delegation of Authority, as amended by resolution. Among other things, these amendments increased the Toronto Parking Authority President's authority to make commitments on behalf of Toronto Parking Authority from an amount not exceeding $250,000 to an amount not exceeding $500,000. At its meeting of July 19, 2024, Toronto Parking Authority Board of Directors approved proposed amendments to Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 5-10: Delegation of Authority as outlined in Appendix B to the report (June 11, 2024) from the President, Toronto Parking Authority. The approved amendments recognize the authorities under Toronto Parking Authority Policy Resolution 5-7: Procurement for the President to award a contract through a non-competitive procurement process in an amount not exceeding $250,000. Where the President uses this authority, Management has committed to providing a summary of the purchasing activity in its regular Delegation of Authority update to the Board. The purpose of this report is to provide a summary outlining the Toronto Parking Authority President's use of the increased Delegation of Authority between May 1, 2026, and June 30, 2026.

Public Electric Vehicle Charging Program - President’s Authority to Execute Collaboration Agreement
The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Toronto Parking Authority Board of Directors to authorize the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to negotiate, enter into, and execute a tripartite Collaboration Agreement, with major negotiated terms outlined in Confidential Attachment 1, between the City, Toronto Parking Authority, and the preferred proponent. In October 2024, City Council adopted IE16.5 , Approach to Public Electric Vehicle Charging to 2030, which established the governance framework for city-wide public Electric Vehicle charging. The report identified Environment, Climate and Forestry (ECF) as the lead City division and designated Toronto Parking Authority as the operational delivery partner. City Council subsequently advanced a City-led collaborative delivery model to support the planning, partnerships, and infrastructure required to meet TransformTO's target of 30 percent Electric Vehicle ownership among registered personal vehicles by 2030. Through this process, Environment, Climate and Forestry and Toronto Parking Authority advanced discussions with short-listed proponents from Toronto Parking Authority's Expression of Interest process, resulting in the identification of a preferred proponent and the development of an outline agreement within the approved parameters. In April 2026, City Council adopted IE28.3 , authorizing the Deputy City Manager, Corporate Services, or their designate, in consultation with the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to negotiate, enter into, and execute agreements necessary to support delivery of the Public Electric Vehicle Charging Program. While City Council has provided the required City-side authority, Toronto Parking Authority requires separate Board approval as a Board-governed entity under Chapter 179 of the Toronto Municipal Code, Parking Authority, and in accordance with Toronto Parking Authority's Delegation of Authority.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Provided authority to the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to negotiate, enter into, and execute the Collaboration Agreement, and throughout the Term of the Collaboration Agreement such non-procurement agreements related or ancillary to the Collaboration Agreement that are necessary to support the delivery of the Public Electric Vehicle Charging Program, between the Proponent, the City, and the Toronto Parking Authority for the purpose of establishing a multi-year Toronto-wide Public Electric Vehicle Charging Program, subject to the major negotiated terms outlined in Confidential Attachment 1 to the report (June 19, 2026) from President, Toronto Parking Authority, and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor. 2. Directed that Confidential Attachment 1 to the report (June 19, 2026) from President, Toronto Parking Authority remains confidential in its entirety, as it involves a position, plan, procedure, criteria or instruction to be applied to any negotiation carried on or to be carried on by or on behalf of the Toronto Parking Authority.

Contract Extension for Operation and Administration of Bike Share Toronto System
The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) to extend the current agreement with Shift Transit Inc. (Shift) for the operation and administration of the Bike Share Toronto system for seven (7) additional months, to October 31, 2027. Management is requesting this extension to provide sufficient time for Management and the Board to complete the necessary due diligence before determining any future changes to the current operating model. The extension also reduces operational risk by maintaining continuity through the busy 2027 summer season. The operating cost of the extension is forecast to be $14.0 million, an increase of $3.9 million compared to 2026. The increase reflects higher activity levels associated with forecast ridership growth, inflationary cost pressures, and the scope, scale, and complexity of the work required. The proposed extension would secure continued service delivery across key operating categories, including bike and station maintenance, rebalancing, valet services, and installation and decommissioning services. These terms are consistent with current market rates and are not expected to result in a material increase in cost on a per-ride basis compared to 2026. The current agreement with Shift, effective April 1, 2020, was approved for a five-year term, with an option to renew for two (2) additional one-year terms. The agreement expires on March 31, 2027. On December 12, 2025, the Toronto Parking Authority Board adopted the 2030 Bike Share Toronto Growth Strategy - Ride More, Connect More, which directs Toronto Parking Authority to develop a network capable of supporting 14 to 16 million trips annually by 2030. This represents the potential to double ridership compared to 2025 levels. Achieving this scale will require a more robust, scalable, and sustainable operating model. As background, Bike Share Toronto has changed markedly since the current agreement was first established. The system is significantly larger, geographically dispersed, and operationally complex. It operates in all 25 wards, includes pedal bikes and e-bikes, relies on expanded valet services, supports seasonal operations, and has emerged as an indispensable publicly provided transportation service for Torontonians. These changes, coupled with higher customer expectations, necessitate a robust assessment and determination of the right operating model that will future proof the Toronto Parking Authority for the next phase of our growth agenda. To support this work, Toronto Parking Authority is undertaking an operating model assessment to identify the organizational structure, capabilities, resources, systems, and service requirements needed for the next phase of Bike Share Toronto. Concurrently, Toronto Parking Authority is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to better understand market capacity, service delivery approaches, and opportunities to improve operations, maintenance, customer service, valet services, e-bike support, technology integration, and network performance. The proposed seven-month extension will provide Toronto Parking Authority with the time required to complete the operating model assessment, review the Request For Information results, and prepare a comprehensive Request for Proposals (RFP), anticipated to be issued in Quarter one 2027. It will also maintain service continuity through the busiest portion of the operating season and avoid the risks associated with transitioning service providers during peak ridership. Given the complexity of the Bike Share Toronto system, and the time required to ramp up any alternative options related to service delivery, the non-competitive extension of the existing contract with the existing supplier would minimize duplication of transition costs and also offer the least risk to the day-to-day business operations. Accordingly, the proposed extension is recommended as a prudent, time-limited measure to preserve service continuity, reduce potential transition risk, and position Bike Share Toronto for sustained growth.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Authorized the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to non-competitively extend the existing agreement with Shift Transit Inc. for a period of seven (7) months, ending October 31, 2027, at a total value not to exceed $14 million, excluding Harmonized Sales Tax, on terms and conditions satisfactory to the President and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor.

Wayfinding Modernization Program - Fabrication and Installation Contract Awards - RFT-OPS2026-01
The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) to award two contracts not to exceed $1,442,041.09 exclusive of Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) for the fabrication and installation of wayfinding and signage improvements at five (5) Green P garage facilities as part of the 2026 phase of Toronto Parking Authority's multi-year Wayfinding Modernization Program. The recommended contract awards are as follows: 1. Philcan Group Inc. (Philcan Group) - fabrication and installation of wayfinding and signage solutions at Car Park 261 located at 45 Abell Street (CP 261), Car Park 26 located at 33 Queen Street East (CP 26), and Car Park 42 located at 91 Via Italia (CP 42). 2. 1700122 Ontario Inc., operating as Sign Network Architectural Products (Sign Network) - fabrication and installation of wayfinding and signage solutions at Car Park 34 located at 20 Dundas Square (CP 34), and Car Park 286 located at 51 Dockside Drive (CP 286). Toronto Parking Authority's wayfinding modernization program supports its broader mission of delivering a seamless, intuitive, and customer-focused mobility experience across Toronto. Many existing garage facilities rely on legacy signage that no longer reflects the complexity of current operations, including multiple products, services, payment options, and mobility connections. Modernized wayfinding is intended to improve clarity, consistency, safety, accessibility, and customer confidence throughout the full parking garage or lot journey. Customer research completed in 2023 confirmed that, while Green P garages are viewed as convenient, well-located, and recognizable, there are opportunities to improve perceptions of safety, service visibility, parking clarity, and payment navigation. Since launching the program in 2021, Toronto Parking Authority has implemented complete wayfinding solutions at seven garages, refining the approach with design partner Steer Davies Gleave North America Inc. (Steer). This phase proposes new wayfinding installations at five facilities - Car Park 261, Car Park 26, Car Park 34, Car Park 42, and Car Park 286 - as part of a broader multi-year modernization plan running from 2026 to 2031. Continued investment in wayfinding will strengthen the Green P customer experience, improve operational efficiency, support accessibility, and reinforce brand consistency across the network. Toronto Parking Authority will also continue aligning this work with broader City initiatives, including the TO360 Wayfinding Planning, Design and Cartographic Consultant Services procurement.
The Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Awarded a contract for the fabrication and installation of wayfinding and signage solutions at Car Park 261, Car Park 26 and Car Park 42 in the amount of $650,405.79 plus a 15 percent contingency allowance of $97,560.87 to Philcan Group Inc. for a total amount not to exceed $747,966.66 exclusive of Harmonized Sales Tax (HST). 2. Awarded a contract for the fabrication and installation of wayfinding and signage solutions at Car Park 34 and Car Park 286 in the amount of $603,542.98 plus a 15 percent contingency allowance of $90,531.45 to Sign Network Architectural Products for a total amount not to exceed $694,074.43 exclusive of Harmonized Sales Tax.

The purpose of this report is to seek authorization from the Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) to approve capital funding in the amount of $4.5 million, excluding Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), for the fit-out of Car Park 15 (CP15), and to include this funding in the Toronto Parking Authority capital budget across the 2026 and 2027 fiscal years. Car Park15, located at 50 Cumberland Street and 37 Yorkville Avenue in the Bloor-Yorkville area, is a new joint-venture facility developed in partnership with the Pemberton Group. The site includes a public car park integrated within a condominium development. Prior to this redevelopment, Car Park 15 was a six-storey garage with 1,036 parking stalls, generating over $5.4 million in annual revenue in 2017 and ranking among Toronto Parking Authority's top five revenue-generating locations. This strong performance reflected the site's strategic location in Bloor-Yorkville and sustained parking demand in the area. Through the joint-venture redevelopment with the Pemberton Group, the new Car Park 15 will be a six-storey underground garage with 795 parking stalls. The facility is expected to generate over $6.4 million in annual revenue and rank among Toronto Parking Authority's top five revenue-generating locations. With the City of Toronto retaining ownership of the below-grade parking lands, the redevelopment preserves the long-term value of this high-performing asset while integrating a modern public car park within a new condominium development. In accordance with the Agreement of Purchase and Sale (APS), the developer is responsible for delivering a base-built parking structure. The Toronto Parking Authority, in turn, is responsible for procuring and installing all the operational systems required to open the garage to the public. These works, collectively known as the fit-out, include parking access and revenue control (PARCS) equipment, security cameras, access control, a cell phone repeater system, IT systems and servers, electric vehicle (EV) charger infrastructure, a parking guidance system, and commissioning. The proposed investment is being delivered cost-effectively. Toronto Parking Authority's recent fit-out at Car Park 72, St. Lawrence Market North, was completed at approximately $6,755 per stall across 250 stalls. By comparison, the Car Park 15 fit-out is estimated at approximately $5,031 per stall across approximately 795 stalls. This lower per-stall cost reflects the benefit of delivering a comparable fit-out across a larger parking facility, where fixed project costs are spread over a significantly greater number of stalls, resulting in improved cost efficiency on a per-stall basis. The fit-out is intended to reflect Toronto Parking Authority's latest garage standards, while incorporating enhancements that support a consistent and recognizable Toronto Parking Authority brand experience.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Approved capital funding in the amount of $3,865,000.00 in base scope, plus $635,000.00 as a contingency allowance, being a sum total of $4,500,000.00 excluding Harmonized Sales Tax (HST), for the fit-out of Car Park 15 (50 Cumberland Street and 37 Yorkville Avenue).

Contract Award - Five (5)-Year HVAC Maintenance and Repair Services Program (2026-2031)
Toronto Parking Authority's parking facilities are critical public assets that must be maintained in a safe, reliable, and customer-ready condition. As part of Toronto Parking Authority's commitment to State of Good Repair, safety, and operational excellence, the ongoing maintenance of core building systems, including Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC), is essential to preserving asset condition, reducing service disruptions, and supporting a positive customer and staff experience. A structured Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning maintenance agreement ensures that these systems are inspected, maintained, and repaired through a consistent and accountable service model, helping Toronto Parking Authority manage risk, extend the useful life of its assets, and maintain the reliability of its garage network. The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) to award and enter into a Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) maintenance services agreement with Standard Mechanical Systems Ltd. (Standard Mechanical). The proposed agreement would be for a three-year term, commencing April 1, 2026 and expiring March 31, 2029, with two optional one-year extension terms exercisable at Toronto Parking Authority's discretion. The total contract value, including the optional extension terms, is $960,272, net of all applicable charges and taxes. The recommended agreement is based on the outcome of the City of Toronto's Negotiated Request for Proposal No. Doc5179720264, which was led by Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) on behalf of participating City divisions, agencies, and corporations. Toronto Parking Authority participated in and is leveraging this City-led competitive procurement process to obtain the same Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning maintenance service levels, contractual standards, and competitively established pricing available through the broader City arrangement. This approach avoids the need for a separate Toronto Parking Authority procurement process, supports consistency across the City's facility maintenance portfolio, reduces administrative burden, and provides value for money through a coordinated procurement model. Under the proposed agreement, Standard Mechanical will provide a comprehensive range of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning services, including preventive maintenance, inspections, seasonal startup and shutdown, corrective maintenance, emergency response, repairs, inventory management, lifecycle reporting, and compliance with applicable legislative and industry requirements.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Authorized the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to negotiate, enter into, and execute a contract with Standard Mechanical Systems Ltd. for the provision of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Maintenance and Repair Services at various Toronto Parking Authority facilities, in accordance with the City of Toronto Negotiated Request for Proposal No. Doc5179720264, in an amount not to exceed $800,227, plus a contingency allowance of $160,045, for a total contract authority of $960,272, net of all applicable charges and taxes, for a three-year term commencing April 1, 2026 and ending March 31, 2029, with two optional one-year extension terms from April 1, 2029 to March 31, 2030, and from April 1, 2030 to March 31, 2031, exercisable at the sole discretion of the Toronto Parking Authority, subject to satisfactory vendor performance and annual budget availability.

PA20.10adopted
The Toronto Parking Authority is committed to delivering clean, safe, secure, and efficient parking facilities that support customers, employees, service providers, and the communities it serves. In partnership with Corporate Security, Toronto Parking Authority applies a risk-based, multi-layered approach to security that integrates physical infrastructure, technology, data-driven analysis, trained personnel, and effective communication. This approach enables Toronto Parking Authority to identify and respond to site-specific risks, strengthen the overall safety and security of its facilities, and support a consistent, reliable customer experience across the parking network. The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Board of Directors of the Toronto Parking Authority to award a non-competitive service contract to Metscan Canada Limited, in an amount not to exceed $360,000, excluding HST, to provide consultant design support, technical advisory services, and installation services for security enhancements at Car Park 43 (CP 43) - 2 Church Street and Car Park 68 (CP 68) - 20 St. Andrew Street. This contract award is to complete the portion of work from the previous competitively awarded contract of 2021, which could not be completed due to site readiness constraints resulting from urgent state-of-good-repair work at both facilities. The installation work includes coring concrete, running conduit for cabling, and mounting the required hardware. These activities are above and beyond the basic procurement of the Closed-Circuit Television equipment and ancillary items. On July 19, 2021, the Board approved the supply and installation of access control, intercom, and video surveillance equipment at nine Toronto Parking Authority off-street parking facilities through a City of Toronto contract with Metscan Canada Limited. The scope included CCTV and related conduit work at CP 43 and CP 68, among other sites. While the required equipment was purchased and stored, installation at these two facilities was only partially completed before the City contract expired on March 31, 2023. The delay was caused by state-of-good-repair work at CP 43 and CP 68, which restricted access to the areas where the equipment was to be installed. The delay was not related to vendor performance. With the state-of-good-repair work now sufficiently advanced, installation can proceed with Metscan Canada Limited to complete the remaining work. Proceeding with Metscan Canada Limited is recommended on a non-competitive basis because the security enhancements were previously approved, the equipment has already been purchased, and Metscan completed the original design, technical planning, and partial execution of the project. Changing vendors at this stage would require revalidation of the design, re-coordination of the installation, potential rework, and duplication of costs and effort. The proposed award is consistent with one of the permitted grounds for pursuing non-competitive procurements under Toronto Parking Authority Policy 5-7 Procurement Policy, where a change of supplier cannot be made for technical or economic reasons without causing significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs. Retaining Metscan Canada Limited will preserve continuity, reduce delivery risk, and allow Toronto Parking Authority to complete the previously approved security enhancements in a timely and cost-effective manner.
The Board of Directors Toronto Parking Authority: 1. Authorized the President, Toronto Parking Authority, to enter into and execute a new non-competitive service agreement with Metscan Canada Limited to complete the design and installation of previously purchased Closed-Circuit Television equipment at Car Park 43 and Car Park 68, for a total amount not to exceed $360,000, excluding Harmonized Sales Tax.
