This application proposes to redevelop the site at 647, 663-665 King Street West, 69-73 Bathurst Street and 58-60 Stewart Street with a 17-storey mixed-use building containing retail uses at grade and residential uses above. The building will have a height of 58 meters, including the mechanical penthouse, and the fronts of the existing heritage building at 663-665 King Street West, along King Street West, Bathurst Street and Stewart Street, will be retained. The application also proposes to demolish the four-storey building at 58-60 Stewart Street containing seven rental dwelling units and replace all of the existing rental units within the new proposed building. On August 21, 2017, the applicant appealed the Zoning By-law Amendment application to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal, citing City Council's failure to make a decision within the time prescribed by the Planning Act. At its May 23, 2018 meeting, City Council adopted a Request for Direction report opposing the project in its current form, but also including a recommendation that City Planning continue discussions with the applicant to resolve outstanding issues with the proposal. Since that time, City Planning staff and the applicant have met a number of times to discuss revisions to the proposal. On November 19, 2018, the applicant submitted a proposed settlement of its Zoning By-law appeal as outlined in the revised plans, dated November 19, 2018, and attached as Attachments 1-5 to this report. This is a revision from the original proposal submitted on December 22, 2016, for a 19-storey mixed-use building with a height of 62 metres (67 metres including mechanical penthouse). The revised proposal is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2014) and conforms with the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017). The revised proposal also conforms with the policies of the Official Plan, the King-Spadina Secondary Plan, the Council-adopted King-Spadina Urban Design Guidelines (2006), King-Spadina Secondary Plan Review, the King-Spadina Heritage Conservation District and the Downtown Official Plan Amendment 406.

This report recommends that City Council defer making a decision on the Rental Housing Demolition Application to demolish the seven existing rental dwelling units at 58-60 Stewart Street until a decision has been issued by the Tribunal regarding the Zoning By-law Amendment appeal.

Parking Amendments - Dan Leckie Way
Dan Leckie Way south of Fort York Boulevard is a collector road accommodating one lane of general traffic in each direction as well as a dedicated left-turning lane at Fort York Boulevard. The west side of the street is signed No Parking from Fort York Boulevard to a point 37.5 metres south, and paid-parking is permitted at times beyond the point 37.5 metres south of Fort York Boulevard. The curb lane is not wide enough to safely accommodate curbside activities such as loading, drop-off, and parking immediately south of Fort York Boulevard. This concern was identified during the CityPlace Safety Walk that I organized and held on May 14, 2018, with local residents and stakeholders, City staff and Toronto Police. Following consultation with Transportation Services staff, I am recommending changing the traffic and parking regulations in this location to restrict curbside activities, in order to reduce the risk of collisions and injuries. Curbside activities can be safely accommodated on the rest of this block of Dan Leckie Way, where the curb lane is wider, and can continue to be permitted.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Rescinded the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the west side of Dan Leckie Way, between Fort York Boulevard and a point 37.5 metres south. 2. Rescinded the existing parking machine regulation in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday, and 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Sunday for a maximum period of three hours at a rate of $3.00 per hour, between a point 37.5 metres south of Fort York Boulevard and a point 54.5 metres south of Fort York Boulevard. 3.

156-160 John Street Community Consultation Meeting - Expanded Notice
On January 14, 2019, a community consultation meeting will be held by Community Planning staff regarding the re-zoning application for 156-160 John Street. For each community consultation meeting of this kind, it is my standard practice to bring a request to Community Council in advance, to direct City staff to provide expanded public notice of the event at cost of the applicant. Unfortunately, due to the schedule of meetings in relation to the beginning of the new term, it has not been possible to give this direction for 156-160 John Street. Fortunately, the applicant agreed to work with Community Planning staff on the provision of expanded notification despite the lack of Community Council direction. I am asking that Community Council endorse and retroactively formalize this ad hoc solution in order to help ensure there are no additional challenges or complexities faced by City staff or the applicant in this respect.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Recognized the community consultation meeting for lands pertaining to 156-160 John Street that was held on January 14, 2019. 2. Endorsed the arrangements made between City staff and the applicant to give notice for the community consultation meeting to landowners and residents within 120 metres of the site, and to additional residents, institutions and owners as determined in consultation with the Ward Councillor, with any additional mailing costs to be borne by the applicant.

The intersection of Avenue Road and Chaplin Crescent has been identified to my office by residents as very confusing for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. It has caused many near-misses, including a few recent collisions, due to two traffic control signals in close proximity to each other. The pushbutton activated traffic control signal at the Kay Gardiner Beltline Trail, some 87m south of Chaplin and Avenue, was installed to allow for a safe crossing for users of the Beltline trail. However, the two sets of traffic control signals have not yet been fully synchronized. I am requesting Transportation Services synchronize the traffic control signals at Avenue Road and Chaplin Crescent with the ones on Avenue Road and the Kay Gardiner Beltline Trail, to minimize any confusion about the functioning of the signals and make these two intersections safer for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians alike.

Improve Pedestrian Safety on Alton Avenue
Alton Avenue is a one-way northbound street which runs north-south adjacent to Greenwood Park. As such, Alton Avenue is used heavily year round by pedestrians accessing the park, renovated skating rink or outdoor pool. Where Alton Avenue intersects with Queen Street East, Dundas Street East and Gerrard Street East, there are pedestrian crosswalks which allow people to cross these major intersecting roads safely. There are no crosswalks or traffic control signals which cross Alton Avenue from the east side to the west side. Due to the fact that Alton Avenue is adjacent to Greenwood Park, pedestrians are crossing at unmarked, uncontrolled locations on a daily basis putting their safety at risk. This is exacerbated by the fact that there are no stop signs, stop bars or corner curb cuts where Alton Avenue intersects with Stanton Avenue or Sawden Avenue. This motion includes recommendations to protect pedestrians, improve road safety and ensure that residents have safe access to our recreation facilities.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed Transportation Services, to study and report back on the feasibility of installing all way stop controls on Alton Avenue at Stanton Avenue, and Alton Avenue and Sawden Avenue to Toronto and East York Community Council at its meeting on May 22, 2019. 2.

Traffic Safety on Pape - Strathcona to Riverdale
This fall there was a two-car accident near Pape and Bain- ending with a pole being struck and knocked over.

Heritage Evaluations in the Dundas and Carlaw District: Status Update
The Dundas and Carlaw area is in the midst of a significant transformation. Community members and stakeholders have been working with me on an initiative to improve the public spaces in an innovative way that highlights the uniqueness of this area, celebrates its rich industrial heritage and enhances the public realm. This summer Heritage Toronto launched the City's first Heritage Plaque District in the area recognizing 10 properties and their unique industrial heritage. Landmarks like the Wrigley Building at 235 Carlaw was one of them and they carry on the history of the area both through their current employment uses and the heritage characteristics of the building itself. Adding to its heritage value is the fact that the Wrigley Headquarters in Chicago was demolished, making 235 Carlaw an even greater heritage asset. The Wrigley Building and many of the other buildings in the Carlaw - Dundas area were identified in 2014 as potentially having significant heritage value. I am asking you to support a request for an update on the heritage preservation of the Carlaw - Dundas area.

23 Ravina Encroachment Agreement
Over the summer my office was involved in trying to remedy a situation that had arisen at a property on Ravina Crescent. The previous owners had constructed a raised flower bed, not obstructing the sidewalk or driveway, yet the flower bed technically covered a small part of the City's Right of Way. After reviewing the matter I believe that conducting enforcement in this instance would be a disproportionate response and ignores that thousands of residents have raised flower beds or other front garden elements that could be subject to enforcement.

Striking a Subcommittee on Ontario Place
Ontario Place is a critical part of our City and our Province. These treasured lands represent a crucial public asset that has served the public for decades, and an asset that must be respected. In our rapidly growing City, access to public land for the public good must continue to be a critical priority. Recently, the Provincial Government announced the dissolution of the governing body of Ontario Place and indicated their intention to move forward with a future redevelopment of the Ontario Place lands. Any potential changes to Ontario Place must be made in the public interest and must include a rigorous public consultation process. Ontario place is for all Ontarians and its future must be discussed and decided in public. Given the importance of such a critical public asset, it is incumbent on us to provide an opportunity for residents of Toronto to share their thoughts on the future of Ontario Place, and be part of the discussion.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Established a Subcommittee on Ontario Place, composed of the Wards 4, 10, 11, and 14 Councillors, to hear from the public regarding the Province of Ontario's intention to redevelop Ontario Place. 2.

Boulevard Café Licence - 1312 St. Clair Avenue West
In July 2018, the Etobicoke York Community Council, including the Councillor for the area at the time, Cesar Palacio, approved a boulevard café licence at 1312 St. Clair Avenue West (Belvedere Bar and Grill). The boulevard café licence was approved despite Municipal Licensing and Standards recommending refusal in a staff report dated June 14, 2018 and a petition from area residents also requesting that the licence not be granted. In his communications to City staff, the former Councillor highlighted that he erroneously supported the issuance of the boulevard café licence at this location because there was an oversight on the part of his office, whereby the petition did not get to him on time. As a result, he was unable to submit it on time to the City Clerk. The former Councillor further highlighted that had the resident petition been forwarded to him on time, he would have voted against the boulevard café licence in question. Area residents continue to contact my office with concerns over this boulevard café licence. Given these concerns, I am asking that Municipal Licensing and Standards staff report back in June 2019 on the overall use of this licence.

Parking Amendments Earlsdale Avenue
On the north side of Earlsdale Avenue, west of Oakwood Avenue, there is 'no parking' regulation in place. This regulation ends just before the curb becomes a ramp, which provides access to several commercial boulevard parking spaces. Oftentimes there is legal parking from where the 'no parking' regulation ends, however, it continues in front of the existing ramp. As a result, access to and from the boulevard parking is blocked. The purpose of this motion is to extend the 'no parking' regulation west in order to prevent parking in front to the existing ramp.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Prohibited parking at all times on the north side of Earlsdale Avenue, between a point 28 metres west of Oakwood Avenue and 15 metres further west.
Staff recommendation as filed
Councillor Ana Bailão recommends that: 1. Toronto and East York Community Council prohibits at all times on the north side of Earlsdale Avenue, between a point 28 metres west of Oakwood Avenue and 15 metres further west.
