Resilient City – Preparing for a Changing Climate Status Update and Next Steps
PE15.2 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Resilient City – Preparing for a Changing Climate Status Update and Next Steps Date: November 2, 2016 To: Parks and Environment Committee From: Chief Corporate Officer Wards: All Wards Reference P:\2016\Internal Services\E&E\Pe16012e&e (AFS 22279) Number: SUMMARY Toronto has and is forecast to experience altered patterns of extreme weather as a result of climate change. Enhancing the resilience of Toronto’s infrastructure and services to these changing weather patterns to reduce the risk of damage and associated costs, injury and emergency situations is a priority of City Council. In 2014, City Council adopted the Climate Change Risk Management Policy outlining responsibilities and a governance structure for implementing the policy. Council also directed that staff report back on the status of implementation of the policy in 2016. Implementation of the policy has been guided by use of a Thematic Area High Level Risk Assessment (HLRA) approach, designed by the cross-corporate Resilient City Work Group to: - identify and assess potential risks of climate change and associated extreme weather events; - define the interdependencies between key infrastructure and service providers, both private and public sector; and - outline the actions that could be taken to mitigate priority risks. Over the past year, High Level Risk Assessments (HLRA) have been undertaken in three Thematic Areas: Utilities, Transportation and Water, in close collaboration with City divisions, as well as external private and broader public sector organizations. To date, work has involved City Planning, Environment & Energy, Engineering & Construction Services, Toronto Water, Toronto Public Health, Transportation Services, Toronto Resilient City Update and Next Steps 1 Transit Commission (TTC), Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA), Toronto Hydro, Metrolinx, Hydro One, Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), Enwave, Enbridge, and representatives of the telecom sector. -

Community Benefits Quarterly
EGLINTON CROSSTOWN Community Benefits and Liaison Plan Summary & Progress To-Date 6 201 DECEMBER Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. Transit Crosslinx Photo: Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. I. INTRODUCTION Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario selected Crosslinx Transit Solutions to design, build, finance and maintain the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (ECLRT) project, the first major transit expansion in 50 years. The provincial government’s $5.3 billion Crosstown investment is the single largest GTA transit investment ever. When it’s up and running, the Crosstown will deliver service that is reliable, comfortable and 60 percent faster than what is now available. What’s more, building the line is creating thousands of jobs, 2,500 at peak construction, and other significant economic benefits. The Crosstown is also unique because it is Ontario’s first large- scale public infrastructure project to contractually require the developer, CTS, to ensure that local communities and historically disadvantaged and equity seeking groups directly benefit from the province’s investment. Historically disadvantaged and equity seeking groups (H&E) refer to groups that have been historically excluded or marginalized from the processes and decisions that affect them. To meet this requirement, CTS is providing a range of employment, training and apprenticeship opportunities to these groups, as well as purchasing goods and services from local suppliers and social enterprises, whenever possible. 1 Photo: Crosslinx Transit Solutions, 2016. II. PROJECT AGREEMENT REQUIREMENTS Eglinton Crosstown Project Agreement Requirements The objective of the Community Benefits and Liaison Plan Community Benefits is to maximize training, employment and procurement The Project Agreement mandates a plan that includes: opportunities for Eglinton-area residents and businesses. -
Intention to Designate Under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act – 1783-1785 Bayview Avenue
REPORT FOR ACTION Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act – 1783-1785 Bayview Avenue Date: April 9, 2018 To: Toronto Preservation Board North York Community Council From: Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning Division Wards: Ward 26 - Don Valley West SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 1783-1785 Bayview Avenue under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and include the property on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. It is a Provincial Heritage Property under the ownership and control of Metrolinx. The property contains a two-storey apartment building, comprising four units, constructed as part of a series of ten apartment buildings of similar design located on the east side of Bayview Avenue between Parkhurst Boulevard and Eglinton Avenue East in the Leaside neighbourhood. Constructed in 1936-1937 by the well-known contractor and Mayor of Leaside, Henry Howard Talbot and designed by the architect W. Breden Galbraith, the apartment building represents the Arts and Crafts style which is characteristic of Leaside's residential architecture. Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that the property at 1783-1785 Bayview Avenue meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its design, associative and contextual value. At its meeting of January 31 - February 1, 2018, City Council stated its intention to designate one of the other ten properties in the series, 1755 Bayview Avenue. The property is owned by Metrolinx, a prescribed provincial public body, and is currently subject to Provincial Heritage Properties under Part III.1 of the Ontario Heritage Act that sets out the criteria and process for identifying provincial heritage properties and sets the standard for their protection, maintenance, use and disposal. -
