Scarborough Community Council forwards the item to City Council without recommendation as the motion to adopt the item lost on a tie vote.

The Scarborough Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 9, 2026 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 9-storey long-term care facility at 60 Guildwood Parkway. The Official Plan Amendment proposes a redesignation of the subject property from Neighbourhoods to Institutional Areas to facilitate the proposed development and would introduce a new Site and Area Specific Policy. A total gross floor area of 29,848 square metres is proposed, consisting of 512 resident rooms and associated long-term care uses, resulting in a floor space index (FSI) of 0.98 times the area of the lot.

A Holding (H) provision is recommended to be included in the Zoning By-law Amendment for the subject site to ensure that the identified infrastructure matters are addressed to the satisfaction of the Director, Engineering Review, Development Review.

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement 2024 (PPS 2024) and conforms to the City's Official Plan. The proposal will facilitate the redevelopment of the existing long-term care facility, providing a new and appropriately scaled building that will continue to serve the community providing much needed additional long-term care beds to support the needs of Toronto's growing and aging population.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. In accordance with the delegated approval under Section 415-16 of the Toronto Municipal Code, as amended, City Council be advised that the Executive Director, Development Review intends to approve the Draft Plan of Subdivision as generally illustrated in Attachment 3 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District subject to:

a. the conditions as generally listed in Attachment 4 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District which, except as otherwise noted, must be fulfilled prior final approval and the release of the Plan of Subdivision for registration;

b. resolution of outstanding matters arising from the technical review of the application, as set out in this Report, to the satisfaction of the Executive Director, Development Review or their designate; and

c. any such revisions to the proposed subdivision plan or any such additional or modified conditions as the Executive Director, Development Review may deem to be appropriate to address matters arising from the on-going technical review of this development.

2. City Council approve that in accordance with Section 42 of the Planning Act prior to the issuance of the first above grade building permit, the Owner shall convey to the City, an on-site parkland dedication, having a minimum size of 2,442 square metres, to the satisfaction of the Executive Director, Development Review and the City Solicitor.

3. City Council approve the acceptance of the on-site parkland dedication, subject to the owner transferring the parkland to the City free and clear, above and below grade, of all easements, encumbrances, and encroachments, in an acceptable environmental condition; the owner may propose the exception of encumbrances of tiebacks, where such an encumbrance is deemed acceptable by the Executive Director, Development Review, in consultation with the City Solicitor; and such an encumbrance will be subject to the payment of compensation to the City, in an amount as determined by the Executive Director, Development Review and the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management.

4. City Council approve a development charge credit against the Parks and Recreation component of the Development Charges for the design and construction by the Owner of the Above Base Park Improvements to the satisfaction of the General Manager, Parks and Recreation. The development charge credit shall be in an amount that is the lesser of the cost to the Owner of designing and constructing the Above Base Park Improvements, as approved by the General Manager, Parks and Recreation, and the Parks and Recreation component of development charges payable for the development in accordance with the City's Development Charges By-law, as may be amended from time to time.

The Scarborough Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 9, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

The Draft Plan of Subdivision application proposes to create a series of development blocks, a new public park, an environmental buffer, a public street and various road widenings and reserves to facilitate the development of 9940 Sheppard Avenue East with residential uses.

The new public street will extend north from Sheppard Avenue East, east of Meadowvale Road, runs between the two proposed residential blocks to the east and the future development block to the west, and connect to Meadowvale Road. The park block will front the newly created street between two residential blocks and back onto lands forming part of the Rouge National Urban Park. The zoning for the subject lands, currently vacant, was approved by the Ontario Municipal Board in 1996, and the current applications assist in activating the development potential of the site.

This report advises that the Executive Director, Development Review or their designate, the Director of Community Planning, Scarborough intends to approve the Draft Plan of Subdivision, as generally depicted in Attachment 3 of this report, after outstanding matters arising from the technical review of the application, as set out in this report, have been addressed.

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024) (PPS (2024)). The proposed development also conforms to the City's Official Plan and Zoning By-law and has regard for the criteria in Section 51(24) of the Planning Act, subject to addressing outstanding matters from the ongoing technical review of the application.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council direct the General Manager, Economic Development and Culture to collaborate with industry partners and local stakeholders to market the Coronation Drive Employment Area, and target specific business sectors compatible with the Area.

2. City Council amend the Official Plan for the lands bounded by Thornton Creek to the north, Highland Creek to the east, the CN rail corridor, East Point Park, and Lake Ontario to the South, and Manse Road Park, Grey Abbey Ravine Park and West Hill Creek to the west, substantially in accordance with the draft Official Plan Amendment included as Attachment 12 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District.

3. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Official Plan Amendment as may be required.

The Scarborough Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 9, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report outlines the outcomes of the Coronation Drive Employment Area Review ("the Review") and presents a coordinated set of planning, economic development and transportation recommendations intended to support the long-term viability of this Employment Area while aiming to ensure appropriate compatibility with the adjacent residential Neighbourhoods.

Initiated in response to issues related to heavy vehicle traffic, the Review draws on technical analysis, policy considerations and extensive stakeholder consultation. The recommendations aim to reinforce the role of the Coronation Drive Employment Area within the City's planning framework, and introduce targeted measures, such as strategic business attraction and road safety improvements, to balance economic viability with the safety and livability of the surrounding area.

This report also recommends approval of a City-initiated Official Plan Amendment to implement Site and Area Specific Policy 938 ("SASP 938"), which would require that new development or redevelopment within the Coronation Drive Employment Area evaluate transportation impacts on the surrounding area related to the movement of trucks and implement measures to mitigate negative impacts, as needed.

A companion report titled "Speed Limit Reduction - Coronation Drive" will be presented at the Scarborough Community Council meeting on July 9, 2026. This report recommends reducing the speed limit on Coronation Drive from 50 km/h to 40 km/h between Manse Road and Beechgrove Drive.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that: 

1. City Council direct the City Solicitor, together with appropriate City staff, to attend the Ontario Land Tribunal hearing to oppose the Zoning By-law Amendment application for the property at 3718 and 3730 Kingston Road in its current form.
 

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to retain external consultants to provide expert opinion evidence in opposition to the application and in support of City Council's position at the Ontario Land Tribunal to oppose the application to amend Zoning By-law to permit the proposed development at 3718 and 3730 Kingston Road in its current form.
 

3. 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.

This report provides updates on item SC31.2 - 3718 and 3730 Kingston Road – Zoning By-law Amendment. On June 3, 2026 the applicant appealed the application to the Ontario Land Tribunal (the "OLT") citing the failure of City Council to make a decision within the time frame legislated by the Planning Act.

Through the Decision Report submitted to Scarborough Community Council, staff recommended approval of the 24 storey building containing 419 residential units and 672 square metres of non-residential gross floor area. Scarborough Community Council considered this item and recommended that City Council refuse the application. City Council subsequently considered the item on May 21, 2026, and referred it to the July 9, 2026 Scarborough Community Council meeting to allow the proponent to finalize their proposal in conjunction with a community meeting paid for at their expense. As the applications have been appealed, the requests made of the applicant through the referral have not been undertaken.

The appealed application remains in the form previously recommended for approval by staff. This report recommends that City Council direct the City Solicitor and other staff as appropriate, attend the OLT to support the application in its current form.

City Council on May 20 and 21, 2026, referred Item SC31.2 to the July 9, 2026, meeting of the Scarborough Community Council to allow the proponent to finalize their proposal in conjunction with a community meeting paid for at their expense. 

This report recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit the development of a 24-storey mixed-use building with a 7-storey podium at 3718 and 3730 Kingston Road. A total gross floor area of 30,905 square metres is proposed, consisting of 30,233 square metres of residential gross floor area (419 residential units) and 672 square metres of non-residential gross floor area resulting in a floor space index (FSI) of 5.25 times the area of the lot.

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement 2024 (PPS 2024) and conforms to the City's Official Plan. The proposal will intensify an underutilized site along an Avenue that is well served by both surface transit and emerging higher order transit networks through the Eglinton East Light Rail (EELRT).

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council classify a portion of the lands municipally known as 1891 Eglinton Avenue East as a Class 4 Noise Area, pursuant to Publication NPC 300 (Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks Environmental Noise Guideline Stationary and Transportation Sources - Approval and Planning) shown as Attachment 2 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District.

2. City Council forward its decision on this classification to the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks.

This report recommends that City Council classify a portion of the lands at 1891 Eglinton Avenue East as a Class 4 Noise Area under the Environmental Noise Guideline, Stationary and Transportation Sources - Approval and Planning (Publication NPC-300) ("Environmental Noise Guideline (NPC-300)") administered by the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks ("MECP"). The purpose of this classification is to implement a mixed-use development on the Future Development Lands ("FDL") area identified in the Official Plan Amendment for the subject lands.

A Noise Assessment Study was prepared by Arcadis in support of the development of the FDL area on the lands at 1891 Eglinton Avenue East, which confirms that the site is suitable for a Class 4 Area classification as identified in the Environmental Noise Guideline NPC-300. This Study has been peer reviewed by a consultant retained on behalf of the City, who agrees that this site is a candidate for Class 4 Area classification.

A Class 4 Area allows for higher sound level limits than would otherwise be permitted in relation to a noise sensitive land use, such as residential dwellings and associated outdoor living areas. The impact of such higher levels is mitigated by the implementation of specified noise control measures as part of associated future development approval processes.

A Class 4 Area classification endorsed by City Council resolution would allow for existing industrial or commercial operations close to the subject site to use this noise classification and sound level limits in applications for required provincial approvals, including operation certificates.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council assume the municipal services relating to Plan of Subdivision 66M-2565

2. City Council authorize the Acting Director, Engineering Review, Development Review to release the performance guarantee held with respect to the municipal services in accordance with the Subdivision Agreement, dated September 12, 2019.

3. City Council authorize and direct the City Solicitor to prepare an assumption By-law to assume the public highway within Plan of Subdivision 66M- 2565 and to bring it forward for enactment.

4. City Council authorize the appropriate City Officials to transfer ownership of the street lighting system constructed within Plan of Subdivision 66M-2565 to Toronto Hydro Energy Services Inc.

This report recommends that the municipal services under the terms of the Subdivision Agreement for Plan 66M-2565, dated September 12, 2019, between R.A.B. Properties Limited /Lawrence Blankenstein and the City of Toronto be assumed by the City. 

The Scarborough Community Council:

1. Approved the naming of the new long-term care home at 4610 Finch Avenue East in honour of Bernice Redmon.

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 proposal to name the new long-term care home at 4610 Finch Avenue East in honour of Bernice Redmon advances the City’s broader equity and commemorative objectives by recognizing the contributions of a historically underrepresented individual, while supporting more inclusive storytelling in public spaces in alignment with the City’s Commemorative Framework.

Seniors Services and Long-Term Care, in collaboration with Economic Development and Culture Division and Strategic Partnerships reviewed the application to name the property. The review concluded that the naming proposal complies with the criteria of the City of Toronto Property Naming Policy and aligns with the Guiding Principles for Commemoration, as outlined in the City of Toronto’s Commemorative Framework.

The Scarborough Community Council:

1. Removed the following directors from the Business Improvement Area Board of Management set out below:

          Cedarbrae Markham Lawrence:

          Doman, Judy

          Sari, Sonia

          Lakshitha, Weerasinghe Kankanamge

Scarborough Community Council has delegated authority to appoint and remove directors from the boards of Business Improvement Areas (BIAs) that fall within its geographic boundaries.

The purpose of this report is to make changes to the Cedarbrae Markham Lawrence BIA Board of Management, in accordance with the requirement of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 19, Business Improvement Areas.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council authorize the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with the City Solicitor and other appropriate City officials, to negotiate, enter into, execute, amend, administer agreements with Metrolinx respecting temporary retaining walls and other similar structures and installations installed wholly within the City road right-of-way and required for construction of the Scarborough Subway Extension project, including provisions respecting design, construction, access, inspection, monitoring, maintenance, insurance, indemnification, liability, removal, restoration, and other related matters, on terms satisfactory to the General Manager, Transportation Services and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor.

2. City Council direct that the agreements contemplated in Recommendation 1 include indemnification and hold harmless provisions in favour of the City, on terms satisfactory to the General Manager, Transportation Services and the City Solicitor, respecting any claims (including third party claims), damages, costs, losses, and liabilities arising from or related to the temporary retaining walls and associated construction activities.

This report seeks City Council authority to enter into one or more agreements with Metrolinx respecting temporary retaining walls and other similar structures and installations required within the City road right-of-way for construction of the Scarborough Subway Extension (SSE) project.

Metrolinx identified several locations where temporary retaining walls are required to facilitate traffic diversions, excavation activities, and associated construction works. The temporary retaining walls will be constructed, maintained and removed by Metrolinx as part of the SSE project, with the affected portion of the road right-of-way restored upon completion of the works.

Transportation Services staff have determined that the delegated authority provisions under Chapter 743, Use of Streets and Sidewalks, of the Toronto Municipal Code do not clearly contemplate agreements for temporary retaining walls and other similar structures and installations located entirely within the public road right-of-way.

The proposed agreements will establish Metrolinx’s responsibilities with respect to the design, construction, inspection, maintenance, monitoring, insurance, indemnification, removal, and restoration of the temporary structures. The recommendations in this report authorize the General Manager, Transportation Services, in consultation with the City Solicitor, to negotiate, enter into, amend, and execute such agreements with Metrolinx.

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council authorize the permanent closure of the portions of the public highway north of Lawrence Avenue East and west of Starspray Boulevard, described as Parts 1 and 2 on Plan 66R-34623, City of Toronto, shown on Attachment 1 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Acting Deputy General Manager, Transportation Services thereby satisfying the condition precedent established in Delegated Approval Form (DAF) No. 2025-293 for the transfer of operational management of the Subject Lands from Transportation Services to Parks and Recreation.

2. City Council direct the City Solicitor to prepare and submit for enactment any necessary Bills to give effect to City Council’s decision, including the closing By-law substantially in the form of the draft By-law attached as Attachment 2 to the report (June 22, 2026) from the Acting Deputy General Manager, Transportation Services.

3. City Council authorize the reservation, granting, acquisition, amendment or release of any easements, rights, agreements or other property interests required to protect existing municipal infrastructure, utility infrastructure, access rights, or operational requirements associated with the Subject Lands, on such terms and conditions satisfactory to the Executive Director, Corporate Real Estate Management, in consultation with the General Manager, Transportation Services, the General Manager, Toronto Water and any affected utility providers, and in a form satisfactory to the City Solicitor.

As this report recommends the permanent closure of a portion of a public highway, City Council approval of this report is required.

Transportation Services recommends that City Council permanently stop up and close the portions of the public highway municipally known as 6600 Lawrence Avenue East, that are lands north of Lawrence Avenue East and west of Starspray Boulevard, legally described as Parts 1 and 2 on Plan 66R-34623 (the “Subject Lands”).

The Subject Lands form part of the Lawrence Avenue East public right-of-way but are not required for current or future municipal transportation purposes. The lands are proposed to be transferred from Transportation Services to Parks and Recreation for the development of a public park and dog off-leash area.

Transportation Services has reviewed the proposal and has no objections to the permanent closure of the public highway designation on the Subject Lands.

1. Refused to grant the application for exemption by the owner of 34 Rodarick Road because the fence fails to comply with the provisions of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 447 Fences.

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

The report responds to an application submitted by the property owner of 34 Rodarick Road requesting approval for a site-specific Fence Exemption under Section 447-1.3E(b) of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 447 – Fences.

The property owner is seeking Council’s permission to maintain an aluminum metal picket fence approximately 1.24 metres in height surrounding the side means of egress. The fence surrounding the side means of egress is located adjacent to a windowsill approximately 1.07 metres above grade and is not setback a minimum of one metre on either side of the doorway.

A second fence encloses the rear means of egress and is not setback 1 metre from the south side of the doorway.

The fences separating the dwelling from the pool area do not comply with the requirements set out in Chapter 447 of the Toronto Municipal Code, which requires that any fence be no closer than one metre to any external condition that may facilitate climbing the outside of the enclosure unless the height of the enclosure is at least 1.8 metres for a distance of at least one metre on each side of the condition.

The Scarborough Community Council:

1. Deferred consideration of the item until the first Scarborough Community Council meeting of 2027.

The owner of 689 Morrish Road has applied to Scarborough Community Council for a site-specific exemption from the requirements of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 447-1.2B(1) respecting fence height and Chapter 447-1.2C(1) respecting open-fence construction requirements.

The property owner is seeking Council’s permission to maintain an existing front yard aluminum metal picket fence and mechanical access gates enclosing the front yard and driveway. The fence, including the gates, is approximately 2.0 metres in height and is located within 2.4 metres of the driveway entrance on both the north and south sides, exceeding the maximum permitted height of 1.2 metres under Chapter 447.

The existing mechanical access gates do not comply with the open-fence construction requirements of Chapter 447, as fences located within 2.4 metres of a driveway must be constructed as open mesh chain-link or equivalent open-fence construction so as not to obstruct visibility of the boulevard or highway.

- The closure of the south end of Morrish Road through the installation of a cul‑de‑sac

- The closure of the Highway 2A/Kingston Road off‑ramp to Morrish Road

- Associated roadway and geometric modifications

- The delivery of pedestrian connections and landscaping on the closed portion of Morrish Road
- Required traffic by-law amendments

5. Subject to the approval of Recommendation 3 above and in conjunction with the installation of traffic control signals on Sheppard Avenue East at a point 390 metres east of McCowan Road, City Council authorize the removal of the existing pedestrian refuge island on Sheppard Avenue East, approximately 440 metres east of McCowan Road.

As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Sheppard Avenue East, City Council approval of this report is required.

Transportation Services is requesting approval to remove the pedestrian refuge islands (PRI) and replace with traffic control signals at the following two locations on Sheppard Avenue East:

- At the existing PRI located approximately 10 metres west of Massie Street, to be replaced with traffic control signals at the intersection with Massie Street

- At the existing PRI located approximately 440 metres east of McCowan Road, to be replaced with mid-block traffic control signals approximately 390 metres east of McCowan Road

The two traffic control signals will provide enhanced safety for all road users and are justified based on the assessments undertaken.  There are several factors for the proposed recommendations:

- PRIs do not provide right-of-way for pedestrians and are not considered an enhanced form of pedestrian crossing protection.

- The heavy traffic on the five-lane cross-sections of Sheppard Avenue East poses potential safety concerns for pedestrians crossing at the subject PRIs to access the TTC bus shelters located on both sides of Sheppard Avenue East.

- The significant distance between the nearest protected pedestrian crossings on Sheppard Avenue East at both PRI locations.

The above recommendations will provide improved accessibility and a safer and more convenient crossing of Sheppard Avenue East for pedestrians, including TTC passengers.

The Scarborough Community Council:

1. Amended Schedule XLVIII, Parts 1 and 2, of Chapter 950, Traffic and Parking, of the City of Toronto Municipal Code, generally as described in Attachment 1 to the report (June 17, 2026) from the Acting Director, Street Permits, Transportation Services, to expand the Free-Floating Car-Share Program operating area into the portion of Ward 20 identified in Attachment 1 to the report (June 17, 2026) from the Acting Director, Street Permits, Transportation Services.

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

The report recommends expanding the Free-Floating Car-Share Program operating area into a portion of Ward 20, consistent with the expansion framework approved by City Council in October 2025. The expansion was requested by the City's sole active free-floating car-share operator in response to observed demand and has been developed in consultation with City staff and the local Ward Councillor.

If approved, free-floating car-share vehicles operating under a valid permit would be exempt from the City-wide three-hour unsigned parking limit and parking regulations imposing maximum parking periods of one hour or more within the approved expansion area. All other parking regulations would continue to apply, and existing program requirements to prevent vehicle clustering and prolonged parking would remain in effect.

The proposed expansion would increase access to one-way car-share services for residents in Ward 20 neighbourhoods located outside permit parking areas, supporting the City's objectives to enhance mobility options and provide greater transportation choice.

The Ward Councillor has been advised of the recommendation contained in this report.

The Scarborough Community Council:

1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, to study the feasibility of implementing safety improvements along Anson Avenue and the surrounding area, including but not limited to speed humps, all-way stop controls, and report back to Scarborough Community Council in the first quarter of 2027.

2. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, to review the need for additional signage, speed measurement measures, pavement markings and other appropriate Vision Zero measures, and report back to Scarborough Community Council in the first quarter of 2027.

Safety measures are needed on Anson Avenue and the surrounding area to help ensure the safety of the community, particularly for families, children, students, seniors, pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users travelling near Anson Park Junior Public School. Residents have raised ongoing concerns about speeding, cut-through traffic, traffic volumes, pedestrian safety, parking conditions, and school-area safety, especially during student drop-off and pick-up times when pedestrian activity is higher.

At recent community consultation, organized by my office, residents identified Oakridge Drive as an example of a nearby street where road safety measures, including all-way stop controls and traffic calming interventions, have helped address similar neighbourhood concerns. Following resident feedback, we recommend that City staff explore comparable safety improvements for Anson Avenue, including whether all-way stops, traffic calming measures, or a combination of both would be most appropriate. As part of this review, we also request that staff examine the need for potential all-way stop controls at Anson Avenue and Harewood Avenue, Anson Avenue and Allister Avenue, Anson Avenue and Dorset Road, and Randall Crescent/Dorset Road and Allister Avenue, as well as traffic calming measures on Anson Avenue, including additional signage, speed management measures, pavement markings, and other appropriate Vision Zero measures. This highlights the need for Transportation Services to conduct a comprehensive review and determine the most effective safety improvements for Anson Avenue and the surrounding neighbourhood.

Transportation Services staff identified that one of the drawings intended to be included as part of the approved speed hump location plan for Claremore Avenue was inadvertently omitted from the staff report titled "Claremore Avenue – Traffic Calming (Speed Humps)," adopted by Scarborough Community Council on April 3, 2025.

To ensure the by-law accurately reflects the full scope of the approved speed hump location plan, staff are requesting that Scarborough Community Council amend Item 2025.SC21.12 to include the omitted drawing (Drawing No. TC-467). This amendment will correct the record and align the decision with the intended design.
