333 College Street and 303 Augusta Avenue - Community Benefits Charge In-kind Offer
On December 16, 2025 City Council approved Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments to permit the construction of a 62.3 metre (20 storeys) mixed-use building containing 638 privately-owned student residence units at 333 College Street and the rear part of 303 Augusta Avenue. As part of the approval, City Council directed that the Executive Director, Development Review, in consultation with the local Ward Councillor and the City Solicitor, to work with the applicant to finalize an in-kind community benefit contribution pursuant to Section 37(6) of the Planning Act, of up to forty (40) percent of the Community Benefits Charges value, to provide such genealogical and/or other research as the City may require to support bringing into City ownership the lanes that abut 333 College Street (known as Ellen Avenue) and the lanes that abut and provide emergency access to Kensington Community School, and to provide lighting, paving, and public realm improvements for such lanes to the reasonable satisfaction of Transportation Services, and to report back to City Council for further instruction, if required. Council also requested the Mayor, as part of the Budget process, to allocate sixty (60) percent of the Community Benefits Charges funds collected from the development at 333 College Street to the Toronto Community Housing Corporation for capital upgrades to Toronto Community Housing Corporation affordable housing properties in Ward 11, in consultation with the local Councillor. The purpose of this report is to report back to City Council on the agreed-to CBC in-kind contribution that will be used toward paving the lane adjacent to the site (known as Ellen Avenue) in concrete to City standards, including related subgrade work, and genealogical or other research to support bringing Ellen Avenue and the lanes that abut and provide emergency access to Kensington Community School into City ownership. Staff have determined that the value of the Community Benefits Charge would not be sufficient to achieve improvements to the lane abutting and providing access to Kensington Community School in addition to the work on Ellen Avenue. Potential future acquisition of these lanes by the City would allow for further opportunities for the city to implement improvements.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council accept the offer of the owner of 333 College Street and 303 Augusta Avenue (the "Site") dated March 13, 2026 attached as Attachment 1 to the revised report (March 24, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District in respect of in-kind community benefits for the development. 2.

City Council attribute a value to the in-kind contribution set out in Recommendation 2 above, equal to 48 percent of four percent of the value of the land (net of any exclusions or exemptions authorized under the Community Benefits Charge By-law), as determined the day before the day the building permit is issued in respect of the development and direct staff to advise the owner of such valuation. 4. City Council request the Mayor, as part of the Budget process, to revise the percentage of the Community Benefits Charges funds collected from the development at 333 College Street to be allocated to the Toronto Community Housing Corporation for capital upgrades to Toronto Community Housing Corporation affordable housing properties in Ward 11, in consultation with the local Councillor, from 60 percent to 52 percent. 5.

Hoverlink Terminal Proposal Update
In May 2023, Hoverlink Ontario Incorporated ("Hoverlink") notified the City of its intent to initiate a hovercraft service between Toronto and St. Catherines in the Niagara Region. Subsequently, the Toronto and East York Community Council requested that staff report on project-related technical studies which would assess the impact of the introduction of this service. Hoverlink proposes to start its service in the first quarter of 2028 at the earliest. This report provides an update on the process to assess information to be provided on the proposed Hoverlink hovercraft service and associated terminal facilities. This report also outlines expectations around information sharing and issues identification. Hoverlink has indicated that it is willing to provide technical information and to work collaboratively with the City on the project. The proposed terminal, made up of a landing pad, docking station and passenger waiting area, is proposed to be located on the south side of the Western Gap at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport. Hoverlink clients will use ferries or Billy Bishop Airport pedestrian tunnel to access Downtown Toronto and local transportation and transit connections. All vessel servicing would occur in St. Catharines, where Hoverlink has entered into a lease with Transport Canada/St. Lawrence Seaway to locate maintenance and deliveries infrastructure, and other facilities. The technical information provided by Hoverlink will be subject to a staff review and comment, which may result in future discussions with Hoverlink to resolve outstanding matters. Coordination with the Toronto Port Authority will be required as there is no City approval or regulatory process that applies in this case. Staff will report back in the second quarter of 2027 with a further update, once additional information is available.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the Director, Waterfront Secretariat to provide a further update in the second quarter of 2027 on Hoverlink Ontario Incorporated's hovercraft service and terminal, once additional technical information is available.

This report recommends that City Council approve the alterations proposed for the designated heritage property at 55 Lake Shore Boulevard East under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act, in connection with the proposed development of the subject property. The application for Site Plan Control is subject to a Heritage Permit application under the Ontario Heritage Act because a previously approved application related to an approved Zoning By-law Amendment has been revised. The development site, known as the Liquor Control Board of Ontario complex, comprises a buff brick Office Building and Warehouse Building. The buildings are purpose-built rare examples of a provincial headquarters and a commercial and industrial complex from the development of Toronto's Central Waterfront in the 20th-century. On May 11 and 12, 2022, City Council approved recommendations to alter the heritage property to allow for the construction of three towers above the Office Building and the Warehouse Building. Since the previous scheme was approved, the applicant has revised the conservation strategy accompanying the related Site Plan Control application and a new Heritage Impact Assessment was prepared by Giaimo + Associates Architects Inc., dated March 9, 2026, that considers the impact of the revised proposal. The proposed development application for the subject property proposes to place the tower above the Warehouse Building only. As a result of the proposed changes to the previous scheme, an amended Heritage Easement Agreement will be required. Heritage Planning staff are satisfied that the proposed alterations continue to conserve the onsite and adjacent heritage properties and are consistent with the existing policy framework.

Bloor - Yorkville Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment - Final Report
This report summarizes the findings of the Bloor-Yorkville Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment (CHRA). Staff recommend that Council adopt the list of identified properties with potential cultural heritage value or interest in Attachment 2. Staff also recommend that Council direct staff to review a portion of the Yorkville Village Core to determine if the area, or a part thereof, merits Council's authorization of a Heritage Conservation District study under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act. In April 2017, Council directed the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District to prepare a new Site and Area Specific Policy for the Bloor-Yorkville Area. In early 2021, City Planning initiated the Bloor-Yorkville Secondary Plan Study, inclusive of a Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment (CHRA). A CHRA documents and analyzes an area's development history to identify properties with potential cultural heritage value and to make heritage conservation recommendations. A Historic Context Statement (HCS) is produced within the CHRA to explain the area's contemporary form and character. The HCS identifies significant periods of historical evolution, analyzes key themes, studies individual properties in relation to themes and historic periods and considers the relationship of properties to one another and their context, to inform the identification of buildings and landscapes with potential cultural heritage value. In February 2021, Heritage Planning staff and a consultant team, Common Bond Collective, initiated the CHRA, which included community engagement within the Secondary Plan study and through a Heritage Focus Group. In the fall of 2022, the Secondary Plan study was put on hold, and the related CHRA was paused. On June 19, 2024, Official Plan Amendment 720 came into effect City-wide, which among other matters, established the requirement for a Cultural Heritage Evaluation Report (CHER) under Schedule 3 of the Official Plan for Official Plan Amendments, Zoning By-law Amendments and Plan of Subdivision applications where a property has been adopted by City Council through a City-led study as having potential cultural heritage value or interest, but which is not included on the Heritage Register. As the Provincial Planning Policy (PPS 2024) Policy 4.6.4 (b) encourages planning authorities to develop and implement proactive strategies for conserving significant built heritage resources and cultural heritage landscapes, Heritage Planning along with its consultants re-activated the CHRA in summer 2025 and completed the final report in December 2025. This report presents the methodology and results of the City-led Bloor-Yorkville CHRA consultant study and provides staff recommendations, including the identification of 88 properties with potential cultural heritage value and the potential to authorize a study of a portion of the Yorkville Village Core as a potential Heritage Conservation District. The CHRA also identified the need for city staff to continue Indigenous engagement within the study area to identify places that hold cultural heritage value for Indigenous communities.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council identify the properties listed in Attachment 2 to the report (February 25, 2026) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning as having potential cultural heritage value or interest, as identified through the Bloor-Yorkville Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment study. 2. City Council direct the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning to undertake all necessary steps, including community consultation, to determine whether the Yorkville Village Core, or a part thereof, merits authorization for study as a potential Heritage Conservation District under Section 40(1) of the Ontario Heritage Act.

This report recommends that City Council approve the alterations proposed for the property at 8 Prince Arthur Avenue under Part V, Section 42 of the Ontario Heritage Act in connection with the construction of a rear addition on the fourth through six storeys of an existing three storey addition to provide expanded office accommodation. The subject property is located on the north side of Prince Arthur Avenue between Bedford Road and Avenue Road and contains a three-storey building with stucco cladding constructed circa 1886 with a non-original three-storey brick clad rear addition. The subject lands are part of the East Annex Heritage Conservation District (EAHCD). The development proposal includes adding three additional floors at the rear half of the existing three-storey building for a total of six storeys. The new addition would be three storeys higher than the ridge of the existing heritage building and would therefore not comply with the guidelines for additions in the EAHCD Plan which state that additions should be lower than the height of the existing ridge. Notwithstanding this, the EAHCD Plan recognises that substantial development in the rear yards is possible on some portions of Prince Arthur Avenue and that rear additions here should not "over-power the existing buildings and preferably should have low visibility from the street." Staff are supportive of the proposed rear addition which is set behind the roof ridge of the existing building and setback over 20 metres from the street and would therefore not "over-power" the existing heritage building. The visual prominence of the heritage building within the public realm would remain. Similar rear additions have been approved on other properties along Prince Arthur Avenue, although they were only four or five storeys in height. The conservation strategy will fully retain in situ the existing building with minor alterations proposed to the exterior and the existing roof. Alterations include new landscaping to the front yard, a new porch roof and general repairs including a new slate roof, if required. The existing mature tree in the front yard is to be retained. On March 11, 2026, a minor variance application for this proposal was considered by the Committee of Adjustment.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council approve the construction of a three-storey rear addition on top of the existing building for the heritage property at 8 Prince Arthur Avenue, in accordance with Section 42 of the Ontario Heritage Act, with such alterations substantially in accordance with plans and drawings prepared by Bloom Architects, dated January 30, 2026, and Heritage Impact Assessment prepared by GBCA Architects Inc. dated March 2, 2026, and on file with the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, subject to the following additional conditions: a. the owner shall: 1. provide a detailed Conservation Plan prepared by a qualified heritage consultant that is substantially in accordance with the conservation strategy set out in the Heritage Impact Assessment for 8 Prince Arthur Avenue dated March 2, 2026 prepared by GBCA Architects. to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning; and 2. provide a detailed Landscape Plan for the property at 8 Prince Arthur Avenue, satisfactory to the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning and thereafter shall implement such a Plan to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning; b. prior to the issuance of any permit for all or any part of the property at 8 Prince Arthur Avenue, including a heritage permit or a building permit, but excluding permits for repairs and maintenance and usual and minor works for the property as are acceptable to the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, the owner shall: 1. provide building permit drawings, including notes and specifications for the conservation and protective measures keyed to the approved Conservation Plan required in Recommendation 1.a.1. above, including a description of materials and finishes, to be prepared by the project architect and a qualified heritage consultant to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning; 2. provide building permit drawings, including notes and specifications that are keyed to the approved Landscape Plan required in Recommendation 1.a.2. above, to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning; and 3. provide a Letter of Credit, including provision for upwards indexing, in a form and amount and from a bank satisfactory to the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, to secure all work included in the approved Conservation Plan; and c. prior to the release of the Letter of Credit required in Recommendation 1.b.3. above, the owner shall: 1. provide a letter of substantial completion prepared and signed by a qualified heritage consultant confirming that the required conservation work has been completed in accordance with the approved Conservation Plan and that an appropriate standard of conservation has been maintained, all to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning.

This report recommends that City Council refuse alterations to the property at 699 and 707 Yonge Street under Part IV, Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act, in connection with the proposed redevelopment of the site. The property at 699 and 707 Yonge Street contains a 3-storey brick row building constructed in 1887. The Brass Rail Tavern has operated at 699 Yonge Street since 1948. Both halves of the commercial row at 699 and 707 Yonge Street have been over-clad, obscuring the original brick walls underneath. In conjunction with an Official Plan and Zoning Amendment application, the redevelopment proposes a 64-storey plus mechanical penthouse mixed-use building, which retains the façade of the heritage building and incorporates it into the three-storey base of the tower, with a stepback depth of 3 metres from the heritage façade on the Yonge Street (west) elevation. The proposed 3-metre tower stepback from Yonge Street above the heritage building and the proposed treatment of the front elevation at the ground floor do not adequately conserve the property's cultural heritage values and attributes. Therefore, the proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment does not conform with the policies of the Official Plan and does not conserve the cultural heritage values and attributes of the property at 699 and 707 Yonge Street.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council refuse the application to alter the designated heritage property/properties at 699 and 707 Yonge Street under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act to allow for the construction of a 64-storey (217 metres, including mechanical penthouse) mixed-use building, in accordance with the plans and drawings dated September 15, 2022 prepared by DIALOG on file with the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning and the Heritage Impact Assessment prepared by ERA Architects Inc. dated September 15, 2022 and on file with the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning. 2. If the owner appeals City Council's decision to refuse the application for alterations to the heritage property at 699 and 707 Yonge Street under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act, City Council authorize the City Solicitor and the necessary City staff to attend the Ontario Land Tribunal hearing in opposition to the appeal.

171 East Liberty Street - Inclusion on the Heritage Register
This report recommends that City Council include 171 East Liberty Street (including structure addresses at 165 - 167 East Liberty Street, 171 East Liberty Street and 37 Hanna Avenue) on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register for its cultural heritage value and interest according to the Listing Statement (Reasons for Inclusion) found in Attachment 1. The subject property at 171 East Liberty Street is located at the southeast corner of East Liberty Street and Hanna Avenue in the Fort York - Liberty Village neighbourhood. The property is a former factory complex containing three brick buildings constructed in 1942 as the John Inglis Company Bren Gun Assembly and Test Buildings. The site comprises buildings at 171 East Liberty Street (the north structure), 37 Hanna Avenue (the south structure) and 165-167 East Liberty Street (the northeast structure with associated smokestack). The property contributes to an important collection of surviving industrial buildings in Liberty Village. A location map and current photograph of the heritage property are found in Attachment 1. The property recommended for inclusion on the City's Heritage Register has been researched and evaluated by staff using the criteria prescribed in Ontario Regulation 9/06 and meets one or more of the provincial criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest and is believed to be of cultural heritage value or interest. On January 1, 2023, amendments to the Ontario Heritage Act (the Act) through the More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022 (Bill 23) came into effect. Under the Act, as amended, a municipal heritage register may include properties that have not been designated but Council believes to be of "cultural heritage value or interest", and that meet one or more of the provincial criteria for determining whether they are of cultural heritage value or interest. The Act now also limits listing to a period of two years. As of January 1, 2023, should a property be subject to an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application, properties must be listed on the heritage register prior to Part IV designation and before the occurrence of a prescribed event. A prescribed event is a point of time when the application for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and/or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application has been deemed complete and the City Clerk provides notice of that complete application to the public in accordance with the Planning Act. The listing of non-designated properties on the municipal heritage register under the Act also extends interim protection from demolition and provides an opportunity for City Council to determine whether the property warrants conservation through designation under the Act should a development or demolition application be submitted. Properties on the Heritage Register will be conserved and maintained in accordance with the Official Plan Heritage Policies. Heritage Impact Assessments (HIA) are required for development applications that affect listed properties.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council include 171 East Liberty Street (including structure addresses at 165 - 167 East Liberty Street, 171 East Liberty Street and 37 Hanna Avenue) on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register in accordance with the Listing Statement (Reasons for Inclusion) attached as Attachment 1 to the report (March 13, 2026) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning.

Quayside Infrastructure and Public Realm Project (Phase 2) - Construction Staging Area
As Queens Quay East is a major arterial road, City Council approval of this report is required. Waterfront Toronto is delivering development enabling infrastructure and public space in the Quayside precinct bounded by Lake Shore Boulevard to the north, Bonnycastle Street to the west, Lake Ontario to the south and the Victory Soya Mills Silos to the east under the Quayside Infrastructure and Public Realm (QIPR) project. The QIPR project will realign Parliament Street, extend Queens Quay east to the Silos, normalize the Parliament Street and Queens Quay East intersection, deliver necessary servicing connections and improve Bonnycastle Street and Small Street. The QIPR implementation will unlock development parcels that include commitments for affordable housing and deliver much needed public realm improvements to the area. As a result, there will be a realignment and lane reconfiguration of Queens Quay East, from Lower Sherbourne Street to Parliament Street. At its meeting on May 21, 2025, City Council authorized the: - Temporary closure of the north sidewalk and a portion of the westbound curb lane on Queens Quay East, between Small Street and Bonnycastle Street; and - Temporary closure of Small Street to all road users, between Lake Shore Boulevard East and Queens Quay East for a period of 16 months, from June 2, 2025 to October 4, 2026. The delivery of servicing connections and improvements to Small Street are currently underway. The next phase of construction includes the realignment of Parliament Street and extension of Queens Quay East which requires the closure of the Martin Goodman Trail in the vicinity of Parliament Street to accommodate the construction of the new roadways and associated public realm. As a result, a temporary and protected bi-direction bicycle lane will be implemented in the existing boulevard area of the northbound curb lane on Parliament Street. The existing pedestrian sidewalk on the east side of Parliament Street will continue to be maintained. Under the existing staging plan, vehicle lane capacity will be maintained with no changes required Due to a delay in the Release for Construction and changes in scope for the work, the existing construction staging on Small Street and Queens Quay are required to be extended to complete the works in those areas. Therefore, Transportation Services is requesting authorization for the following: - Temporary detour of the Martin Goodman Trail on Parliament Street, between Merchant's Wharf and Lake Shore Boulevard East and; - Temporary closure of the east side boulevard on Parliament Street between Merchant's Wharf and Lake Shore Boulevard East and the provision of a temporary bi-direction bicycle lane for a period of 9 months between April 22, 2026 and December 31, 2026 - Extension of the existing temporary closure of the north sidewalk and a portion of the westbound curb lane on Queens Quay East, between Small Street and Bonnycastle Street from October 4, 2026 to December 31, 2026; and - Extension of the existing temporary closure of Small Street to all road users, between Lake Shore Boulevard East and Queens Quay East from October 4, 2026 to December 31, 2026. As there are no changes to vehicle lane capacity, a new traffic impact study has not been conducted.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council authorize the closure of the Martin Goodman Trail on Parliament Street, between Merchant's Wharf and Lake Shore Boulevard East, from April 22, 2026 to December 31, 2026, inclusive. 2.

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision. PEM (Yorkville) Holdings Inc. has undertaken the construction of a 68-storey mixed-used development and a 42-story residential condominium building at 33 Yorkville Avenue and 50 Cumberland Street, respectively. The south sidewalk and a portion of the eastbound curb lane on Yorkville Avenue, and the north sidewalk and a portion of the eastbound lane on Cumberland Street is currently closed for construction staging operations. By way of background, Toronto and East York Community Council, at its meeting on February 5, 2020, approved the subject construction staging area on Yorkville Avenue and Cumberland Street from March 1, 2020 to May 31, 2024. At a later Toronto and East York Community Council meeting on July 10, 2024, the developer requested an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Yorkville Avenue and on Cumberland Street. The extension request was due to delays caused by transfer of ownership that impacted the original construction schedule and onsite construction activities did not start until February 2021. At the meeting, although the developer has proposed an extension to be in effect from August 1, 2024 until February 1, 2027, the Council instead authorized a reduced period, concluding on January 31, 2026. The developer is now requesting an extension of the duration of the construction staging area on Yorkville Avenue and on Cumberland Street, to allow for the construction of the development to be completed. It should be noted that the project schedule has been accelerated, allowing the construction staging to be removed from sidewalk and the roadway one month earlier on December 31, 2026. The previous target end date was February 1, 2027. In view of the above, Transportation Services is requesting authorization to extend the duration of the construction staging area on Yorkville Avenue and on Cumberland Street for an additional 11 months, from February 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026.

53-55 Yonge Street - Construction Staging Area Time Extension
As Yonge Street is classified as a major arterial street, City Council approval of this report is required. H&R REIT is demolishing the properties at 53 and 55 Yonge Street in preparation for a future development. The site is located on the east side of Yonge Street, between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street. At its meeting on July 23 and 24, 2025, City Council authorized the: - Temporary closure of a portion of the east sidewalk and northbound curb lane of Yonge Street between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street, for a period of 10 months, from July 28, 2025 to May 1, 2026; and - Temporary closure of a portion of the south sidewalk and eastbound curb lane on Colborne Street between Yonge Street and Scott Street, for a period of 10 months, from July 28, 2025 to May 1, 2026. The above noted construction staging area overlaps with the existing staging by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Easier Access project for the King Station until May 2026. Due to delays in establishing construction staging area delineation between the two constructors, the construction start date was delayed and a time extension is required. TTC has confirmed that the TTC Easier Access project for the King Station is expected to be complete by May 1, 2026. Therefore, the developer has requested to adjust the existing staging area for the demolition work after May 1, 2026, once TTC has demobilized and removed their existing construction staging. The result is that the developer will take over a portion of the existing TTC construction staging area so that the existing footprint is no longer shared between both constructors. Pedestrians will continue to be redirected from the east side of Yonge Street to the opposite sidewalk. Pedestrian movements on the south side of Colborne Street will be redirected to the north side. Transportation Services is requesting authorization for the following: - Extension of the temporary closure of a portion of the east sidewalk and northbound curb lane of Yonge Street between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street, for a period of three months, from May 1, 2026 to July 31, 2026; and -Extension of the temporary closure of a portion of the south sidewalk and eastbound curb lane on Colborne Street between Yonge Street and Scott Street for a period of three months, from May 1, 2026 to July 31, 2026.

Safety Improvements on Davenport Road, Cottingham Road, Poplar Plains Road, and Macpherson Avenue
This report seeks Community Council approval for several traffic operations changes and bylaw amendments to improve safety along Davenport Road, Cottingham Road, Poplar Plains Road, and Macpherson Avenue. The proposed design includes safety improvements to two intersections and one mid-block change as listed below: - Poplar Plains Road between Cottingham Road and Boulton Drive: several proposed amendments to facilitate a new parking lane along the west side of Poplar Plains Road between Cottingham Road and Boulton Drive. - Davenport Road and Glen Edyth Drive and Cottingham Road: installation of a compulsory stop control southbound on Glen Edyth Drive at Cottingham Road to facilitate the realignment of this intersection. - Davenport Road and Poplar Plains Road and Macpherson Avenue: installation of traffic control signals and rescinding the existing westbound compulsory right-turn only limitation to create a normalized four-leg intersection with most movements (left-turn, right-turn and through) permitted. The existing southbound left-turn prohibition would remain due to geometric constraints. Together, the proposed changes would improve safety though clear direction for people driving through intersections and would support new safe connections and crossings for pedestrians and people cycling.
