Item - 2024.IE18.7

The Infrastructure and Environment Committee recommends that:

1. City Council authorize the General Manager, Transportation Services, to negotiate, enter into and execute a new or amended boundary agreements with the City of Mississauga, with terms and conditions satisfactory to the General Manager, Transportation Services, and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor.

The purpose of this report is to seek City Council approval to renew an agreement between the City of Toronto and The Corporation of the City of Mississauga for the cost sharing and maintenance of the boundary facilities shared by both parties. The previous agreement between the two jurisdictions had been in place since January 1, 2012, and recently expired on December 31, 2022. The proposed renewal agreement is substantially based on terms similar to the previous agreement, with the addition of a new clause to acknowledge that Mississauga may assume The Queensway Bridge (currently shared between Peel Region and the City of Toronto and governed by the Region of Peel - Toronto Agreement that commenced on January 1, 2020) upon the dissolution of the Regional Municipality of Peel as per the Hazel McCallion Act. Should this occur, the renewed agreement with the City of Mississauga will also apply to this additional structure.
