b. all previously secured items with the exception of requirements related to Festival Square enhancements.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on October 22, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law; to permit an increase in residential gross floor area and a reduction in non-residential gross floor area within the Gehry Forma development previously approved at 260-270 King Street West (East Block) and 274-322 King Street West (West Block). The proposal is to permit residential uses within the base building of the proposed West Block building, currently approved for non-residential uses.

The site was the subject of a previous Official Plan Amendment application approved by Council in 2014 and a previous Zoning By-law Amendment application approved by the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) in 2014 with the final order issued by the OMB in 2017 bringing the amending Zoning By-law into force and effect (By-law 1480-2017).

The previous approvals permitted two new mixed-use buildings designed by architect Frank Gehry at 260-270 and 274-322 King Street West (the East Block and West Block buildings). A total gross floor area of 174,000 square metres was permitted on the site, including a maximum residential gross floor area of 138,100 square metres and a minimum non-residential gross floor area of 35,300 square metres, with the floor area permissions distributed between the East and West Blocks. The East Block is currently under construction. No changes are proposed to the previously approved heights, building envelopes or setbacks of the buildings on either the East or West Blocks and no changes are proposed to the overall gross floor area permitted on the site.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on October 22, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends an amendment to Zoning By-law 883-2021(OLT) to permit a 183-metre (55 storeys) including mechanical penthouse mixed use building with a total gross floor area of 43,853 square metres at 55 Eglinton Avenue East. Zoning By-law 883-2021(OLT) permits a building of 177.9 metres (50 storeys). The current proposal is 5.3 metres taller in height and 2,553 square metres more in total gross floor area compared to the previous approval.

This report also recommends an Official Plan Amendment to require 1,165 square metres of gross floor area as a combination of non-residential uses and/or affordable housing in lieu of office replacement. This includes 303 square metres of ground level retail, 502 square metres of non-residential uses on the second level, and 360 square metres of affordable housing. 

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013 for the lands municipally known as 861 Avenue Road substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment included as Attachment 5 to the report (October 3, 2025) from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

4. City Council request the owner to provide a Landscape Plan detailing the proposed landscaping along the public boulevard to the satisfaction of the Executive Director, Development Review and the General Manager, Transportation Services.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on October 22, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit two 4-storey residential buildings (13.3 and 13.1 metres) with a total of nine townhouse units accessed from a central driveway. The proposed development includes a 0.4-metre road widening on Avenue Road and a 6.0-metre corner rounding conveyance at the northwest corner of the site.

The Toronto and East York Community Council adjourned the public meeting for 1099 Broadview Avenue - Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment Application - Decision Report - Approval, until November 27, 2025 at 10:00 a.m. and requested staff to hold a community consultation meeting on the revised proposal for 1099 Broadview Avenue in the interim.

The Toronto and East York Community Council commenced a statutory public meeting on October 22, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law to permit a mixed use building. The building would have two taller elements of 14 and 16 storeys, sharing a five storey shared podium, with an approximately 800 square metres courtyard space provided at the rear. The building would provide 313 dwelling units, with a total gross floor area of 30,480.5 square metres, including 633 square metres of non-residential space on the ground floor. A total of 207 vehicle parking spaces and 363 bicycle parking spaces are proposed.

The proposed development is consistent with Provincial Planning Statement (2024), conforms to the City's Official Plan, and represents an appropriate use, form and scale of development that is compatible with the context.

The Toronto and East York Community Council adjourned the public meeting for Zoning By-law Amendment for Garden Suites on Parkmount Road Facing Craven Road - Final Report, until November 27, 2025 at 10:00 a.m..

The Toronto and East York Community Council commenced a statutory public meeting on October 22, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

On October 9 and 10, 2024, City Council directed City Planning staff through Item “TE16.75 - Council Direction on PH14.13 - Allowing Time for a Thorough Review”, to review garden suite zoning permissions for homes on Parkmount Road that back onto Craven Road between Danforth Avenue and Hanson Street, and to allow more time for the review that Council had previously requested. The Council decision directed staff to consider matters such as provincial planning changes, previous consultation, and modifications to the zoning by-law for better integration of garden suites in the area including appropriate setbacks from Craven Road for garden suites.

Garden suites have been permitted in Toronto’s Neighbourhoods since early 2022, when City Council adopted city-wide permissions. As a priority project of the Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON) initiative, garden suites contribute to Toronto’s housing goals and targets, including the 2023 Housing Action Plan, and the Province’s housing target of 285,000 new homes in Toronto by 2031. The garden suite permissions provide opportunities through gentle intensification for a variety of living arrangements, providing flexibility for existing homeowners looking to rent a unit to tenants, creating additional units for multigenerational living, or those looking to downsize and age in place. To date, the City has received over 900 building permit applications for garden suites. In July 2025, Council adopted additional amendments to further support the effective implementation of garden suites in Toronto based on the findings from the Garden Suites Monitoring Program and to align Zoning By-law 569-2013 with recent provincial regulatory changes.

This report presents the findings from the review, feedback from public consultation, and staff’s recommended approach to reflect the distinct context of Craven Road, including recommended amendments to the zoning by-law. The recommended zoning by-law amendment would continue to permit garden suites on Parkmount Road while providing minor modifications to performance standards that reflect and address several unique characteristics on Craven Road, notably the narrowness of the street, and the through-lot character of Parkmount Road versus the facing condition of the homes fronting onto Craven Road. Staff are aware of only one other street in the City that exhibits the same characteristics.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council direct the City Solicitor and appropriate City staff to attend the Ontario Land Tribunal in opposition to the current application regarding the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment appeal for the lands at 189-195 Old Weston Road and to continue discussions with the applicant in an attempt to resolve outstanding issues.

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor and City staff to take any necessary steps to implement City Council's decision, including requesting any conditions of approval that would be in the City's interest, in the event the Ontario Land Tribunal allows the appeal, in whole or in part.

On August 17, 2021 an Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application was submitted to the City for an 8 storey non-residential building, two residential buildings of 11 and 27 storeys, and a 3 storey above grade parking structure at 189 and 195 Old Weston Road. The proposed development includes a total gross floor area of 34,361 square metres, including 4,410 square metres of employment office space and 296 residential units.

On June 11, 2025, the applicant appealed the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application to the Ontario Land Tribunal ("OLT") due to Council not making a decision within the timeframe prescribed by the Planning Act.

On August 15, 2025, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing issued a Notice of Decision to approve the Keele St. Clair Secondary Plan (OPA 537) without any modifications, which is a final decision that brought OPA 537 into effect as of that date.

This report recommends that the City Solicitor and appropriate City staff attend the OLT to oppose the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application in its current form and to continue discussions with the applicant in an attempt to resolve outstanding issues.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 

1. City Council approve the construction of a five storey rear addition on the heritage property at 36 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 Richard Wengle, dated March 24, 2025  and Heritage Impact Assessment prepared by ERA Architects Inc. dated July 14, 2025  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 36 Prince Arthur Avenue dated July 14, 2025 prepared by ERA Architects Inc. to the satisfaction of the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning; and

2. provide a detailed Landscape Plan for the property at 36 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 36 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 approve the alterations proposed for the property at 36 Prince Arthur Avenue under Part V, Section 42 of the Ontario Heritage Act in connection with the construction of a new five storey rear addition to provide additional office accommodation.

The subject property is located on the north side of Prince Arthur Avenue between Bedford Road and Avenue Road and contains a two and a half storey brick form building constructed circa 1891. The subject lands are part of the East Annex Heritage Conservation District (EAHCD).

The development proposal includes the retention of the main body of the existing two and a half-storey brick and stone building and removal of its rear two-storey addition to facilitate the construction of a new five-storey addition at the rear. The existing rear addition is not original.

The new five-storey addition would be two 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 evident on Prince Arthur 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 redevelopment of the site, given that the addition is setback behind the existing retained two and a half storey heritage building and that it would not over-power the existing heritage building. It would be set back over 14m from the front of the heritage building and would have limited visibility from the street so that the visual prominence of the heritage building within the public realm would remain.  The HIA says that the proposed new rear addition would use "compatible materials and colours" but details of these have not been included. They will be required as part of the Conservation Plan submission.

In July 2025 a minor variance application for the five-storey rear addition was approved by the Committee of Adjustment.

At its meeting on October 16, 2025 the Toronto Preservation Board considered Item PB36.5 and made recommendations to City Council.

Summary from the report (September 29, 2025) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning:

The Director, Planning, Design and Management, Transportation Services recommends that:

1. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services, to report back to the Toronto and East York Community Council in the first quarter of 2026 with a positive recommendation for local roads identified in the RapidTO Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street data monitoring program that satisfy the traffic calming policy guidelines, in consultation with the local Councillors.

2. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to report back to the Toronto and East York Community Council in first quarter of 2026 with recommendations to change on-street permit parking hours, to affix on-street permit parking to the side of the street with greater supply, and to adjust on-street permit parking spaces at appropriate locations informed by engagement with the local residents and local Councillors.

3. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to work with the local Councillors to create a Community Working Group and to report on progress by the end of the first quarter of 2026, in developing a unified set of changes to address permit parking supply, speeding and traffic infiltration issues that arise as a result of RapidTO: Dufferin Street implementation.

4. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to work with religious institutions fronting on affected portions of Bathurst Street or Dufferin Street to ensure that they can continue to conduct funerals and marshall funeral processions during off-peak hours.

On July 23-24, 2025, City Council adopted EX 25.4 RapidTO: Transit Priority on Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street, which includes the installation of priority transit lanes on Dufferin Street, from King Street West to Bloor Street West, and on Bathurst Street, from Bathurst Station to Lake Shore Boulevard West. Approved changes also include turn restrictions at key locations to improve traffic flow.

While priority transit lanes provide a benefit to the transit riders on both Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street, it is expected that there will be a change in how people travel and park in the nearby areas. Responding to direction from Council, this report identifies potential solutions to mitigate the impacts on changes to nearby local road travel patterns and the availability of on-street parking that may result from the Council-approved changes on Dufferin Street and Bathurst Street, including:

- Potential infiltration of traffic onto local streets;

- Parking supply for permit holders around Dufferin Street; and

- Off-street and side-street parking supply near Bathurst Street around St. Moses and St. Katherine Coptic Orthodox Church.

Transportation Services is committed to bringing forward recommendations for local streets with existing conditions that meet the requirements for traffic calming. Additional data collection is currently underway to inform recommendations for measures to be implemented on local streets.

While a review of utilization in permit parking areas adjacent to Dufferin Street demonstrated sufficient capacity to absorb the loss in permit parking spaces on Dufferin Street between Dundas Street West and Peel Avenue, there are two identified potential opportunities to improve area permit parking access and supply:

- Green P spaces can be used overnight on Gladstone Avenue, north of Bloor Street West; and

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

The Ward Councillor requested Transportation Services to investigate the feasibility of providing free parking on sections of Adelaide Street East, Lombard Street and Church Street adjacent to the Masjid Toronto Mosque on Adelaide Street East during the Friday afternoon periods.  This report provides information that these requests are not supported, as there are currently no policies in place for these exemptions.

As part of the Strategic Parking Framework for the City of Toronto adopted by City Council on June 25 and 26, 2025, recommendations were approved providing direction for the Toronto Police Service and Toronto Parking Authority to develop policies for permitting parking near religious institutions and extending free parking at other times of religious significance, respectively.  Transportation Services have confirmed that the work on these policies is in progress and that any changes in the absence of this guidance would be premature and should not be supported.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:  

1. Authorized all-way compulsory stop control at the intersection of Adelaide Street West and Portugal Square.

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

2. Directed the Director, Permits and Enforcement, Transportation Services to communicate this temporary extension of 24-hour permit parking on the streets outlined in Part 1 above to residents through a targeted information campaign throughout the duration of the Distillery Winter Village.

This staff report concerns a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

Each year, the organizers of the Distillery District Winter Village submit their operational plans to the City for review. Transportation Services reviews these plans in detail and recommends changes informed by lessons learned from previous years. The Distillery Winter Village is a highly successful event that draws significant crowds, contributing positively to the city’s cultural vibrancy and supporting local businesses and community engagement.

Transportation Services also acknowledges the transportation-related challenges that arise during the event, including increased traffic congestion on surrounding neighbourhood streets, pressure on curbside space, and impacts to both event attendees and local residents. Transportation Services remains committed to supporting the event through continuous improvement in traffic management planning, working collaboratively with event organizers and other City divisions to mitigate impacts and enhance mobility for all road users.

The purpose of this report is to seek Toronto and East York Community Council's authority to enact temporary traffic and parking amendments required to enhance traffic operations and pedestrian safety during the annual Distillery Winter Village event, which takes place from November 13, 2025 to January 4, 2026, inclusive.

A companion report "Temporary Adjustments to Traffic and Parking Regulations for 2025 Distillery Winter Village (Non-delegated)" outlines the required non-delegated temporary traffic and parking amendments for streets with Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Service.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

9. City Council direct that Bloor Street West be returned to its pre-construction traffic and parking regulations (except with parking rates and hours of operation being consistent to the rates and hours of operation at the time of completion) when the project is complete.

As Bloor Street West is classified as a major arterial street, City Council approval of this report is required.

Bloor Dufferin Holdings LP and Ontario Holdings Ltd is constructing an underground pedestrian tunnel connecting the existing Dufferin Street TTC station to the proposed 33-storey building located at 980 Dufferin Street and 1141 Bloor Street West. The tunnel will run north to south and will be situated on Bloor Street West, just west of the Dufferin Street and Bloor Street West intersection.

By way of background, City Council, at its meeting on February 5, 2025, adopted Item - 2025.TE19.22 and in so doing authorized a construction staging area at the northwest corner of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street, from February 28, 2025 to January 31, 2026 to facilitate construction operations for Stage 1 of the TTC tunnel construction project. As part of the recommendations, eastbound and westbound left-turns were prohibited all times at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street to eliminate delays for the single lane of eastbound and westbound traffic.

The recommendations in this report are in addition to the above noted, Item - 2025.TE19.22 approved by the City Council on February 5, 2025. It should be noted that the above project has not yet commenced due delays in finalizing legal agreements. Therefore, upon expiry of the construction staging area permit, staff will submit a report to City Council requesting authorization to extend the permit duration. 

While the eastbound and westbound left-turn at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street intersection are being prohibited, Transportation Services is seeking authorization to temporarily remove the existing eastbound-left and westbound-left turn prohibitions in effect 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Bloor Street West and Lansdowne Avenue, and westbound left-turns on Bloor Street West at Dovercourt Road, to provide road users with alternate locations to complete eastbound and westbound left turns.

The temporary amendments to the left-turn prohibitions on Bloor Street West at Dovercourt Road, and on Bloor Street West at Lansdowne Avenue are requested for a period of 21 months from November 30, 2025 to September 1, 2027.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Temporarily rescinded the existing one-way southbound traffic designation on Westmount Avenue, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road.

2. Authorized a compulsory stop control for northbound and southbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue.

3. Authorized a compulsory stop control for northbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Genessee Avenue.

4. Directed that Westmount Avenue be returned to its pre-construction traffic and parking regulations (except with parking rates and hours of operation being consistent to the rates and hours of operation at the time of completion) when the project is complete.

Construction for Contract Number 23ECS-MI-03FS for the Fairbank Silverthorn Basement Flooding Protection Project Contract 4, is underway. Due to the construction of shafts required for deep and large diameter storm sewer to be installed by microtunnelling, Westmount Avenue will be closed between Martin Street and Genesee Avenue for the duration of the works.  

Westmount Avenue currently operates as one-way southbound street. To improve traffic flow in the area and provide affected residents a route out of the proposed road closure, Westmount Avenue will be temporarily converted to two-way traffic operations, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road. Due to this temporary change, additional stop control will be required to effectively assign right-of-way at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue, and at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Genessee Avenue. The proposed amendments to the traffic by-law regulations are being introduced in alignment with the planned construction timeline, which is scheduled to begin in November 2025 and is anticipated to be completed by approximately April 2026, with restoration and re-opening of the intersections by June 2026.

In view of the above, Transportation Services is requesting authorization to temporarily convert Westmount Avenue, between Amherst Avenue and Rogers Road to two-way traffic operation. Furthermore, authorization is being requested to temporarily introduce compulsory stop control for northbound and southbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Amherst Avenue, and additional compulsory stop control for northbound traffic at the intersection of Westmount Avenue and Genessee Avenue in order to efficiently assign right-of-way while Westmount Avenue operates as a two-way street.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Deferred consideration of the Item until the November 27, 2025 meeting of the Toronto and East York Community Council.

On April 23 and 24, 2025, City Council directed Transportation Services in consultation with the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) to report to the Toronto and East York Community Council with information on how the TTC tracks and watermain at King Street East and Church Street degraded to the point of requiring repair and associated diversion, and the ongoing active traffic management measures for the area bounded by the Don River, Eastern Avenue, Broadview Avenue, and Gerrard Street East, including a specific update on actions taken, and additional recommendations at Broadview Avenue and Dundas Street East.

The purpose of this report is to provide an explanation as to why the work at King Street East and Church Street was scheduled for 2025, and to provide a summary of the ongoing and planned traffic management measures for the area bounded by the Don River, Eastern Avenue, Broadview Avenue and Gerrard Street East, including additional recommendations for the intersection of Broadview Avenue and Dundas Street East.

The Toronto and East York Community Council forwards the Item to City Council without recommendation.

As this report recommends the dedication of land for public highway purposes, City Council approval is required.

As part of the Port Lands Flood Protection Project and Enabling Infrastructure Project (PLFP), and the Lake Shore Boulevard East, Bridge and Public Realm (LSBE) Projects, Waterfront Toronto is completing the following construction projects:

- Removal of the Gardiner East access ramps at Logan Avenue;

- Reconstruction of the Lower Don River Bridge; and

- Reconfiguration of Lake Shore Boulevard East, from Don Roadway and Carlaw Avenue.

This report recommends property dedications as public highway and traffic by-law changes for Lake Shore Boulevard East, as the above-noted construction approaches completion.

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

Leader Lane, extending between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street, is scheduled for laneway reconstruction and streetscape improvements in Spring 2026. The project includes the proposed designation of Leader Lane as a Pedestrian Way.

Transportation Services is recommending approval to redesignate the section of Leader Lane between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street as a Pedestrian Way. Leader Lane is currently designated as a Laneway. This Pedestrian Way would support pedestrian traffic in the St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood area, including providing a more attractive connection to Berczy Park, consistent with the Streetscape Master Plan for the St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood.

A companion report titled "Streetscape Improvements and Parking Amendments - Colborne Street between Church Street and Leader Lane" dated October 3, 2025 proposes to amend the parking regulations to accommodate streetscape improvements.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Authorized the amendments to traffic and parking regulations on Colborne Street between Church Street and Leader Lane, to accommodate the streetscape improvements, as generally described in Attachment 2 to the revised report (October 17, 2025) from the Director, Planning, Design and Management, Transportation Services.

Colborne Street, extending between Church Street and Leader Lane, is scheduled for local road reconstruction and streetscape improvements in Spring 2026. The project includes curb extensions and reduced curb radii at the intersection of Colborne Street and Leader Lane, and a widened boulevard on the south side of Colborne Street, to increase pedestrian clearway and to create seasonal patio space for adjacent businesses in the Old Town Toronto Business Improvement Area.

Transportation Services is recommending removing the on-street paid parking on the south side of Colborne Street, while maintaining the No Stopping on both sides of Colborne Street, to accommodate streetscape improvements.

A companion report titled "Pedestrian Way Designation and Streetscape Improvements - Leader Lane between Wellington Street East and Colborne Street" dated October 3, 2025 proposes to permanently close Leader Lane as a Laneway to vehicular traffic and redesignate it as a Pedestrian Way.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

2. Directed the City Solicitor to prepare a By-law to alter the roadway for the installation of four speed humps on Benlamond Avenue, between Main Street and Norwood Road, generally as shown on Attachment 2 to the report (October 3, 2025) from the Director, Enforcement and Street Management, Transportation Services.

This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

Transportation Services is recommending the installation of speed humps on Benlamond Avenue, between Main Street and Norwood Road.  Staff's assessment indicates the criteria as set out in the Traffic Calming Policy has been satisfied.  Therefore, speed humps should be installed on Benlamond Avenue.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council rescind the existing Community Safety Zone in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Dundas Street West and Queen Street West.

2. City Council rescind the existing Community Safety Zone in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Bloor Street West and College Street.

3. City Council designate a Community Safety Zone to be in effect at all times on both sides of Dufferin Street, between Queen Street West and Bloor Street West.

Dufferin Street, between Queen Street West and Bloor Street West, serves as a vital corridor connecting residents to key community destinations, including the Roseneath Theatre, several churches, and nearby schools such as St. Helen Catholic School. The area is home to many families and vulnerable road users, and is bordered by single-family homes and City-run facilities.

Dangerous driving and speeding along this section of Dufferin Street remain major concerns for residents. There continues to be serious incidents, near misses, collisions, and no regard for vulnerable road users, reflecting an urgent need for enhanced safety measures.

Transportation Services conducted a review and determined that expanding the existing community safety zone on Dufferin Street is warranted. This designation will fill a gap between two existing safety zones to the north and south, ensuring a continuous corridor of traffic regulations designed to reduce dangerous driving.

The establishment of a community safety zone will increase penalties for drivers violating traffic rules and will support any future implementation of automated speed enforcement. This expanded community safety zone will help to improve safety for all road users in the active and growing neighbourhoods along Dufferin Street.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council authorize amendments to parking regulations required to establish a no stopping prohibition on the north side of College Street, between a point 30.5 meters east of Dufferin Street and Gladstone Avenue, as set out in Attachments 1 and 2 to the letter (October 2, 2025) from Councillor Alejandra Bravo.

College Street, between Dufferin Street and Gladstone Avenue, is a busy stretch that serves as a key streetcar route for residents. It is also home to many businesses and residential communities that link together our wider Davenport community. Traffic flow in this area is being impacted by a combination of streetcar operations and parked vehicles near transit stops.

Residents have shared concerns about the impact to traffic flow, citing a set of pay-and-display parking spaces on College Street as the cause. Currently, parking is permitted at all times along this section. At the same time, the westbound 506 streetcar stops traffic during pick-up and drop-off on College Street, just east of Dufferin Street. Resulting in parked vehicles blocking westbound motorists in the curb lane, especially those turning right northbound onto Dufferin Street. Together, this conflict increases congestion and traffic delays in the area as westbound motorists can be backed up to Havelock Street and Rusholme Road.

Transportation Services reviewed the conditions and supports the proposed amendments that would establish a no-stopping prohibition on the north side of College Street, east of Dufferin Street. Nearby on-street and off-street parking options remain available for residents and visitors to the area. These improvements will help reduce congestion and support more efficient transit and traffic operations in this active corridor.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council rescind the parking prohibition in effect from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Saturday, except public holidays, on the south side of St. Clair Avenue West, between a point 57 metres east of Via Italia and a point 15.9 meters east.

A commercial loading zone was previously approved on the south section of St. Clair Avenue West near Via Italia. The business that requested this loading zone moved to a different location and no longer requires these spaces. The local BIA confirmed that none of their members require access to this loading zone and it can be removed.

The proposed removal of this commercial loading zone will restore on-street parking and help to welcome visitors to the Corso Italia area.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Deferred consideration of the Item until the November 27, 2025 meeting of the Toronto and East York Community Council.

Barton Avenue is a narrow east-west residential street in Seaton Village which used to carry primarily local traffic between Bathurst Street and Christie Street. A previous Councillor created a maze on other east-west streets in Seaton Village. This, together with navigation apps such as Waze, has funnelled cut-through traffic onto Barton Avenue.

Since 2018, Barton Avenue residents and the Seaton Village Residents Association have debated options for discouraging cut through traffic. The time for action has now come, due to population and traffic increases, and the forthcoming RapidTO Bathurst streetcar lane.

Extensive local consultation by the SVRA, and by the local councillor, has revealed a local preference for discouraging eastbound cut through traffic by making Barton Avenue one way westbound between Clinton Street and Christie Street.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Directed the General Manager, Parks and Recreation to install signage to prohibit bicycle use on paved paths in Jean Sibelius Square to ensure they are for pedestrians use only.

A small but heavily used park and playground, Jean Sibelius Square, is entirely surrounded by residential streets. A paved path across the park, which crosses between two play areas, is currently used by both pedestrians and cyclists. Using this path to cross the park saves cyclists a few seconds in comparison to going around on the residential streets that surround it. However, this creates a situation of danger to pedestrians, especially small children.

Tragically, a four-year-old child was recently knocked down and seriously injured by a cyclist on this path. Following the collision, city staff reviewed the area and adding signs asking cyclists to proceed slowly. This has not resulted in any meaningful change and has not eliminated the risk of further collisions and injuries.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Prohibited northbound left-turns from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, bicycles excepted, at the intersection of St. George Street and Ursula Franklin Street.

2. Prohibited southbound right-turns from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, bicycles excepted, at the intersection of St. George Street and Ursula Franklin Street.

The University of Toronto St. George campus, the world’s most sustainable university, now serves more than 65,000 students. Accordingly, there is heavy pedestrian traffic on St. George Street, especially when classes change. The university has observed growing safety concerns when motor vehicles attempting to turn west from St. George Street onto Ursula Franklin Street encounter this heavy flow of pedestrians. Turning drivers become impatient when there is no break in the pedestrian flow. While they wait, they block traffic, infuriating drivers behind them. Tempers flare, and some drivers attempt to push through the pedestrians.

The university has requested these turn restrictions on an urgent basis to prevent serious personal injury or death. They will then work with their traffic consultant to propose longer term solutions.

Item TE26.54 was withdrawn from the Agenda.

Roxborough Street West is a residential street between two busy commercial areas, one on Yonge Street and one on Avenue Road, and abuts the popular and busy Ramsden Park. Local residents pay for parking permits, but experience severe difficulties finding parking spots in their permit area due to heavy cut-through traffic and to intense parking pressure from non-residents, who pay nothing to park on this street. About 30 homes have had no alternatives to on-street parking since the city expropriated their rear lane and added it to Ramsden Park.

Some local residents would prefer significant expansion of “permit parking only” hours, but this could have an undue adverse effect on, for example, worshippers attending the busy Hare Krishna Temple at Roxborough and Avenue Road. Introducing paid on-street (Green P) parking is a fairer way to improve parking availability and turnover for both residents and non-residents, without adversely affecting parking permit holders. The recent introduction of Green P parking on nearby Berryman Street has successfully improved parking availability and turnover.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Adopted the naming of a parkette at 55B Brock Avenue to “Pat Capponi Parkette”.

City Council adopted the Commemorative Framework at its July 2022 meeting. The Framework provides guidance to the public, Elected Officials, and City staff regarding the commemorative naming and renaming of streets and City properties, and the consideration of proposals for new and existing commemorative monuments.

The subject naming proposal was submitted by Ward 4 (Parkdale-High Park) City Councillor Gord Perks. The proposal seeks to name a new parkette located at 55B Brock Avenue as “Pat Capponi Parkette”. This proposal has garnered significant support from long-time residents and community members who either collaborated directly with Pat Capponi or recognize her substantial impact on the Parkdale community.

Parks and Recreation, in collaboration with the Economic Development and Culture Division, and Strategic Partnerships reviewed the application. The review concluded that the naming proposal satisfies the criteria of the Property Naming Policy and aligns with the Guiding Principles for Commemoration.

The Toronto East York Community Council:

1. Amended Schedule A of City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 925, Permit Parking, to authorize parking by permit only to be in effect from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. daily, on the odd (west) and the even (east) side of Clifton Road from Glenrose Avenue to the south end of Clifton Road.

2. Rescinded the parking prohibition in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., Monday to Friday, on both sides of Clifton Road, between Glenrose Avenue and Mount Pleasant Road.

3. Rescinded the stopping prohibition in effect from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, except public holidays on the east side of Clifton Road, between Inglewood Drive and St. Clair Avenue East.

The residents of Clifton Road south of Glenrose Avenue have requested introduction of permit parking as described below, as some residents have no private off-street parking options, and are receiving a high number of parking tickets.

The Toronto East York Community Council:

1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services to investigate and to report back to the Toronto East York Community Council in the first quarter of 2026 with an appropriate action plan, starting with how to provide street lighting and trash removal to the orphan lanes in Kensington Market that serve public facilities.

Kensington Market is an important tourist attraction as well as the centre of a thriving multi-ethnic community and one of the most affordable parts of Ward 11. Recent planning changes are accelerating intensification of this area.

Kensington Market is crossed by a network of small lanes. Some neighbourhood lanes are owned and maintained by the City of Toronto. Unfortunately, a high concentration of lanes that provide essential access to homes and businesses are registered in the name of individuals who died in the 19th century. This includes Cyril Lane, the emergency fire exit for Kensington Community School, and Ellen Lane, the only vehicular access to a Toronto Community Seniors Housing building.

These orphan lanes are broken, unlit and filthy. They are infested with rats and trash. Their visible neglect attracts illegal activities that are profoundly disruptive for the neighbourhood. Although they are used by heavy vehicles, the lanes’ structural integrity is unknown. Municipal Licensing and Standards can do nothing in the absence of a current owner.

There are multiple indicators that these lanes were always intended to be part of the city’s road network. The lanes have never been assessed for taxes, and so cannot be removed from limbo by a tax sale. Some bear names marked by official city street signs. Some contain public infrastructure, such as catch basins. Community members are pleading for the city to take responsibility for these orphan lanes, or to ensure that someone else does.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council request the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning to initiate in 2026 a non-statutory character study of Palmerston Avenue and the surrounding residential area, in consultation with the local community, that articulates the community’s aspirations for the design of future development and to report back to the Toronto and East York Community Council in the first quarter of 2027.

2. City Council request the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning to evaluate whether a Heritage Conservation District Plan should be prepared for the Palmerston area and to report back to the Toronto and East York Community Council in the first quarter of 2027.

Palmerston Avenue and surrounding streets constitute a distinctive and beautiful residential area with distinctive architecture and design context. It has long been on the list of candidate areas for a Heritage Conservation District. Recent policy changes are accelerating intensification and new housing in this unique area. While additional housing is needed and can help support local businesses, it is important that development be guided by an understanding of community priorities as it relates to matters of design.

The Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Authorized parking for a maximum period of one hour from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the north side of Dentonia Park Avenue, between Avonlea Boulevard and Sibley Avenue.

In response to concerns raised by residents regarding limited parking availability on Dentonia Park Avenue, my office has received a petition from community members requesting changes to the current parking regulations. Specifically, residents are asking that parking on the north side of Dentonia Park Avenue, between Avonlea Boulevard and Sibley Avenue, be limited to a maximum of one hour. On-street permit parking holders would remain exempt from the one-hour limit.

Toronto and East York Community Council:

1. Authorized the relocation of an approved speed hump on Denvale Road between Eden Park Road and Ashall Boulevard, generally as set out in Attachments 2 and 3 to the letter (October 21, 2025) from Councillor Brad Bradford.

This item relates to “TE7.88 - Traffic Calming - Denvale Road, between St. Clair Avenue East and Northdale Boulevard.” Residents expressed concern about the location of the speed humps initially passed. Staff were asked to reevaluate the previous proposed location of speed humps and provide alternatives. Staff have recommended alternatives.
