  • Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity
    Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity 2008 Humber River State of the Watershed Report – Surface Water Quantity EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • As of 2002, only one quarter (25%) of the total urban area in the Humber River watershed had stormwater management controls in place to treat urban run-off prior to it being released to receiving watercourses. • The majority of annual stream flow in both the Main and East Humber subwatersheds is generated by groundwater discharge (baseflow) due to the permeable soils and hummocky terrain of the Oak Ridges Moraine area, predominantly rural land uses and presence of aquifers. • The Oak Ridges Moraine, particularly its southernmost extent, and the Iroquois Sand Plain are major influences on the distribution of baseflow in the watershed. Both of these physiographic regions are characterized by highly permeable soils and underlying geology (sand and gravel) which produce high rates of infiltration and groundwater discharge to streams. • Half (50%) of the total stream flow in the Humber River during baseflow conditions originates from within the Main Humber and East Humber subwatersheds. Secondary subwatersheds observed to be major contributors to baseflow are Upper Main, Centreville Creek and Purpleville Creek. • Baseflows in the West Humber subwatershed are low with large tributaries becoming dry during summer months. The majority of stream flow is generated by surface run-off due to low permeability soils, impervious surfaces, and in some areas no aquifers being present. • The majority of baseflow in the West Humber originates from the west branch. • Seasonal variations in baseflow and minimum sustained baseflow rates at long term stream gauge sites have not changed significantly since continuous monitoring began in the late 1950s.

The purpose of this research is to identify the conditions, constraints and opportunities of the Rexdale Employment Area and develop the groundwork for a Secondary Plan. The first phase of this research project involves conducting a literature review of suburban industry and collecting historical information on Rexdale's employment lands.

  • Child & Family Inequities Score
    CHILD & FAMILY INEQUITIES SCORE Technical Report The Child & Family Inequities Score provides a neighbourhood-level measure of the socio-economic challenges that children and families experience. The Child & Family Inequities Score is a tool to help explain the variation in socio-economic status across the City of Toronto neighbourhoods. It will help service providers to understand the context of the neighbourhoods and communities that they serve. It will also help policy makers and researchers understand spatial inequities in child and family outcomes. While other composite measures of socio-economic status in the City exist, the Child & Family Inequities Score is unique because it uses indicators that are specific to families with children under the age of 12. The Child & Family Inequities Score is a summary measure derived from indicators which describe inequities experienced by the child and family population in each of Toronto’s 140 neighbourhoods. The Child & Family Inequities Score is comprised of 5 indicators: • Low Income Measure: Percent of families with an after-tax family income that falls below the Low Income Measure. • Parental Unemployment: Percent of families with at least one unemployed parent / caregiver. • Low Parental Education: Percent of families with at least one parent / caregiver that does not have a high school diploma. • No Knowledge of Official Language: Percent of families with no parents who have knowledge of either official language (English or French). 1 • Core Housing Need: Percent of families in core housing need . This report provides technical details on how the Child & Family Inequities Score was created and describes how the resulting score should be interpreted.
