I would like to take a moment on behalf of Council to acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples of all the lands that we are on today. We do this to reaffirm our commitment and responsibility in improving relationships between nations and to deepening our own understanding of Indigenous peoples and their cultures. It is a moment to reflect on the importance of this land, which we each call home.

 

We acknowledge the land we are meeting on is the traditional territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.

DM41.2 - Responding to Bill 98, Building Homes and Improving Transportation Infrastructure Act, 2026 - by Councillor Jamaal Myers, seconded by Councillor Alejandra Bravo

Decision Type:
ACTION
Status:
Amended
Wards:
All

City Council Decision

City Council on May 20 and 21, 2026, adopted the following:

 

1. City Council express its support for the Toronto Transit Commission board's decision on Item 2026.TTC14.18 outlining key principles for staff participation in consultations with the Province of Ontario on the province’s regulatory framework under the Fare Alignment and Seamless Transit Act, 2026.

 

Toronto Transit Commission board decision:

 

That the TTC Board:

 

1. Endorse the following key principles to guide TTC staff participation in consultations with the Province of Ontario on the province’s regulatory framework under the Fare Alignment and Seamless Transit Act, 2026:

 

a. Local authority to develop local solutions to transportation needs – Preserve the autonomy of local transit systems to introduce fare and service policies that meet the needs of local communities and riders, keep transit affordable, and treat all Toronto residents equitably as a key component of the City’s approach to local transportation and congestion management.

 

b. Protect local transit service quality – Preserve service quality and standards relied upon by our customers – proposals must not negatively impact the experience of most customers who travel within the City of Toronto in efforts to improve cross-boundary travel for the 18% who currently make a connecting trip to GO or a 905-transit system.

 

c. No unfunded provincial mandates – Provincial decisions to set fares and/or service be matched with full funding (operating and capital) by the Province of Ontario.

 

d. Value for money – where provincial directives require the use of specific fare payment systems, unified booking systems, or other changes that have a financial impact to the TTC, there must be clear demonstration that the systems offer value for money, respect Toronto taxpayers, and are efficiently and effectively delivered.

 

e. Respect local transit system expertise and planning process – Consultation that respects the expertise and planning processes of local transit systems, customers and its employees, during both the development of the regulatory framework and when decisions are made using the regulations enacted under the Act.

 

f. Good governance – ensure opportunities for local transit systems, communities, and labour partners to have voice in decision making supported by a sustainable provincial funding model for public transit.

 

2. Request the Ontario Minister of Transportation provide an opportunity for public feedback on any regulatory framework or regulations proposed under Bill 98, Schedule 4, the Fare Alignment and Seamless Transit Act, 2026.

 

3. Request TTC staff to support public advocacy efforts by transit riders and other stakeholders to advance the principles outlined in Recommendation 1.

 

2. City Council express support for the Toronto Transit Commission’s written submission on Bill 98 to the Ontario Legislature’s Standing Committee on Heritage, Infrastructure and Cultural Policy, contained in Attachment 1 to motion 1.

 

3. City Council request the City Manager to pursue negotiations with the provincial government to restore 50/50 operational funding for local public transportation, which was eliminated in 1998 under Mike Harris, as a condition of any provincial intervention in the City’s ability to set its own fares or mandate any revenue sharing with other transit agencies. 


4. City Council request Metrolinx to enhance the One Fare program by immediately aligning GO Transit fares with Toronto Transit Commission fares for rides within the City of Toronto.

5. City Council forward this item to the Ontario Minister of Transportation for consideration during the development of regulations under the Fare Alignment and Seamless Transit Act, 2026.

City Council on May 20 and 21, 2026, adopted the following:

 

1. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, to improve and formalize the Division’s change order policies and procedures to ensure they are comprehensive, clear and consistently applied across all capital projects and aligned with contract terms, and at a minimum, the procedures should:

 

a. establish Corporate Real Estate Management staff and management approval authorities and financial thresholds for review and approval of change orders, including requirements for escalation to senior management where necessary;

 

b. specify documentation requirements for Corporate Real Estate Management staff for change orders, including justification for the change, cost and schedule impact, cost breakdown, and evidence of review and approval by required parties;

 

c. specify documentation requirements for Corporate Real Estate Management staff confirming that markups and additional fees and charges included in change orders are applied in accordance with the contract;

 

d. specify review requirements for Corporate Real Estate Management staff for contractor invoices, including verification that the related work is completed in accordance with the contract terms before payment is authorized and released; and

2. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, to provide training for project managers when the capital project policy and procedures are implemented or updated, and when quality assurance reviews indicate the need for supplementary refresher training, to ensure consistent understanding and application of change order requirements across all capital projects.

 
3. City Council request the City Manager, in consultation with the Chief Procurement Officer, the City Solicitor, and relevant Division Heads, to review contract structures, procurement practices, legal risks, and vendor relationships and consider adopting a consistent City-wide approach for directly accessing and reviewing subcontractor records, to enhance oversight of change orders and address risks related to contractor overbilling and/or irregularities in change order documentation.

 

4. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, in consultation with the City Solicitor, to:

 

a. review the change orders for contracts where potential overcharges for markups and other charges were identified during the audit and take appropriate steps to recover the funds or secure credits, where possible;

 

b. review change orders for all current capital projects (and recently completed capital projects, prioritized based on risk) to confirm contract terms for markups and other charges are correctly applied and pursue recovery or credits of any charges that are not in accordance with contract terms, where possible; and

 

c. standardize and clarify the contract language included in Corporate Real Estate Management project-specific schedules attached to the City’s standard construction agreement and ensure staff’s consistent understanding of the applicability and calculation of markups and other additional fees and charges related to a change; and, where applicable, provide feedback on potential improvements to the City’s standard clauses for consideration as part of the City-wide review of construction agreement templates.

 

5.

c. verifying general contractor compliance with City contract terms.

7. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, to ensure:

 

a. change orders are appropriately reviewed and records demonstrating the nature and extent of reviews of the reasonableness and appropriateness of change orders (including pricing, scope, and schedule impacts) are retained in the City’s project files;

 

b. change orders and change directives are appropriately approved, in accordance with signing authority and financial thresholds, before beginning work; and

 

c. contractor invoices and supporting documentation are reviewed and confirmed by Corporate Real Estate Management project managers to comply with contract terms and related policies and procedures, before payment is approved and released.

 

8. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, to establish a formal and consistent process for identifying, documenting, and managing change orders resulting from design errors and omissions, and this process should include:

 

a. requiring the use of standardized categories to identify the reasons for change orders (including design errors and omissions) and consistently tracking design errors and omissions across projects;

 

b. establishing procedures for assessing additional costs arising from design errors and omissions; and

 

c. defining when and how to pursue claims and cost recovery from the external consultant, including required documentation, considering the cost and benefit of pursuing such claims.

 

9. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, in consultation with the Chief Procurement Officer and the City Solicitor, to:

 

a. ensure that Corporate Real Estate Management project managers consistently complete the mandatory performance evaluations for general contractors and consultants;

 

b. ensure that Corporate Real Estate Management project managers monitor general contractors and consultants to confirm they take corrective actions in response to areas where performance does not meet expectations, which includes communicating issues, reviewing progress and documenting whether the issues persist or are resolved; and

 

c. ensure that the performance evaluations are reviewed and used for performance management purposes, and to explore opportunities to incorporate evaluation results into future bid evaluations.

 

10. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, to strengthen the quality assurance process for both complete and active projects and to include a focus on capital project change orders by:

 

a. establishing the scope and frequency of quality assurance reviews related to change orders;

 

b. ensuring quality assurance reviews examine a sample of change orders to verify that Corporate Real Estate Management project managers have obtained, reviewed, and retained sufficient supporting documentation to confirm that changes were necessary and justified; that costs, schedule impacts, and markups or other fees are reasonable and in accordance with contract terms; and that all required approvals and supporting documentation were obtained in a timely manner; and

 

c. for a selection of general contractors, confirming directly with subcontractors that the amount on change orders matches the subcontractors’ quotes or actual charges invoiced to the general contractor, where possible.

 

11. City Council request the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management to:

 

a. expedite implementing a centralized system to track and record key documentation and data for capital projects, including all change orders;

 

b. ensure the use of standardized categories to identify and track the root causes of change orders;

d. create standardized reports for management to monitor change orders and related key performance indicators, including volume, value, reasons and trends across all Corporate Real Estate Management-managed capital projects.

All

City Council Decision

City Council on May 20 and 21, 2026, adopted the following:

 

1. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services to submit comments to Ontario’s Environment Registry of Ontario that support the proposal for a two-class definition for power-assisted bicycles (aka e-bikes) that are speed limited to no more than 32 kilometres per hour, have a total continuous power of 500 watts or less, must be equipped at all times with functional hand cranks or foot pedals that are capable of propelling the bicycle by muscular power only and are usable during normal operation of the bicycle, cannot have a footrest or a platform for the operator’s feet, must have an adjustable saddle, require a minimum operator age of 16, allows passengers of any age in a seat, and requires helmets for all operators, and the proposal that would require faster, heavier moped/scooter- or motorcycle-style vehicles, to be licenced and insured.

 

2. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services to request the Province to require a maximum weight limit of 55 kilograms for Class 2 power-assisted bicycles, and to require brakes adequate for an operator to safely stop the vehicle within 9 metres even when loaded, travelling at the maximum powered speed and in wet and hilly conditions.

3. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to continue to collaborate on the Power-Assisted Bicycle proposals with the Ministry of Transportation to ensure that the City’s micromobility by-laws support the safety of cyclists and micromobility users, and pedestrians across the City.

 

4. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with Toronto Police Service, to develop a training program to help police officers easily identify different micromobility devices and where they are permitted to operate on the road network.

 

5. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services to collaborate with the Toronto Police Service on education and enforcement blitzes targeting micromobility devices on sidewalks.

6. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with the Toronto Police Service, to continue evaluating the success of the ongoing enforcement blitzes as outlined in item 2025.IE24.1.


7. City Council expedite the request made by the Infrastructure and Environment Committee and request the General Manager, Transportation Services and the General Manager, Parks and Recreation, in consultation with Toronto Police Service and vulnerable road users, to report back to the December 9 and 10, 2026, meeting of City Council with recommendations to amend Toronto’s by-laws for bike lanes, cycle tracks, and multi-use trails to prohibit in all cycling infrastructure any motorized vehicle other than a Class 1 or Class 2 power-assisted bicycle.


8. City Council request the General Manager, Transportation Services to engage and request courier and transportation businesses operating in Toronto to educate contractors on the penalties associated with illegal speed control or battery modifications to motorized micromobility vehicles and the requirement to comply with all rules of the road, and report back in the first quarter of 2027 with an update on implementation and, in the event they are required, to seek additional authorities to implement this direction.

 

9. City Council request the Fire Chief and General Manager, Fire Services to make recommendations to the province on lithium-ion battery safety standards for all vehicles powered with lithium-ion batteries.

10. City Council direct the Fire Chief and General Manager, Toronto Fire Services to continue providing advice on amendments to the Ontario Fire Code that would prevent or mitigate lithium-ion battery fires through the Office of the Ontario Fire Marshall’s Technical Advisory Committee which was established in response to City Council’s request in item 2025.MM33.3.

 

11. City Council direct the Fire Chief and General Manager, Toronto Fire Services to submit comments with advice on regulations under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act to Health Canada in response to their Notice of Intent to regulate lithium-ion batteries in consumer products under the Act.

12. City Council request the Executive Director, Housing Secretariat, in collaboration with the Executive Director, Municipal Licensing and Standards, the Fire Chief and General Manager, Toronto Fire Services, Toronto Community Housing Corporation, and Toronto Seniors Housing Corporation, to report back in the first quarter of 2027 with options to ensure the safe storage of micromobility devices containing lithium-ion batteries.

 
13. City Council direct the Executive Director, Municipal Licensing and Standards to report back in 2027 on licensing rental agencies and retailers of motorized micromobility vehicles, other than a Class 1 or Class 2 power-assisted bicycle, including requirements for vendors to provide safety information to customers in a posted point-of-sale notice and submit safety data.

14. City Council request the Minister of Transportation to amend the Highway Traffic Act to develop a process that authorizes Toronto Police to seize and impound, at the curb, unlicenced motorized micromobility vehicles that move by motor power at more than 32 km/hour. 


15. City Council request the Minister of Transportation to add an appearance-based exclusion, modelled on Quebec's Highway Safety Code, that disqualifies motorcycle and moped-styled devices from being considered a Class 1 or Class 2 power-assisted bicycle, regardless of label, based on visible features such as footrests, body panels, and motorcycle-style wheels. 


16. City Council request the Minister of Transportation to mandate top-tier safety certification (UL 2849 and UL 2271) for electrical systems and batteries of motorized micromobility vehicles sold, leased or operated in Ontario, other than a Class 1 or Class 2 power-assisted bicycle.

 

17. City Council request the Minister of Transportation to create a system of standardized markers that would be affixed by manufacturers or retailers to micromobility vehicles that designate the vehicle’s class under the Highway Traffic Act or other regulations.

   

18. City Council request the Federal Minister of Transport and the Federal Minister of Health to introduce regulations that require mandatory safety regulations to address the public fire safety risk created by lithium-ion batteries in micromobility devices, including but not limited to, new or enhanced regulations under the Canada Transportation Act, Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, and the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act.
