  • Item 6C - Mabellearts - Long Term Lease and Operating Agreement for Parts of Mabelle Park TCHC April 27, 2021 Board Meeting Report #: TCHC:2021-27 Attachment 2 Item
    Item 6C - MABELLEarts - Long Term Lease and Operating Agreement for parts of Mabelle Park TCHC April 27, 2021 Board Meeting Report #: TCHC:2021-27 Attachment 2 Item MABELLEarts 6C VALUATION OF PROGRAMS AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS - TCHC:2021-27 and BACKGROUND AND HISTORY WORKING WITH TCH Executive Summary This document sets out the value proposition supporting MABELLEarts proposal to lease Mabelle Park - on which MABELLEarts will construct a community building, improve the park and run programming. Attachment In exchange for entering into the lease TCH receives: • Capital Investment on its land of approximately $2 million+ • A commitment to provide programming which we value at $500,000+ per year 2 In addition, TCH tenants and the community benefit from heightened safety of an animated park space and opportunities to connect, inspire and lead. There is no way to place a number on that value. We have demonstrated below our ability to raise and sustain the funds to complete the Project and operate programming. The lease and proposed project are the result of years of community consultation and enjoys the support of the Mayor and local City Councillor. The cost to TCH is intended to be neutral – with its current cost of maintaining the park being paid to MABELLEarts as a fee for carrying out maintenance duties in the park. TCH will complete its own risk analysis. However, any risk can be mitigated in the Lease. Effectively the downside to TCH is that the lease will default and it will acquire ownership of a better park. “It's kinda weird. This is the first neighbourhood where I walk down the street and everyone is saying hi to me.

  • (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning
    (In)Equity in Active Transportation Planning: Toronto’s Overlooked Inner Suburbs by Mohammed Mohith Supervised by Professor Liette Gilbert A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies, York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 2019 Abstract Active transportation modes in North America are often accounted as ‘white strips of gentrification’ as advocacy for walking and bicycle infrastructure is characterized as a manifestation of privilege (Mirk, 2009). Such concerns usually arise from complex cultural, historical and political currents influencing urban politics and policies. Policies and investments make the urban amenities and facilities easier or harder to access and have a huge impact on the lives of the city’s population depending on their social and spatial status. Unequal distribution of transportation investments due to lack of fair access to participate in the planning process is not uncommon in Canadian cities -- and in almost all cases lead to inequality in mobility benefits. Decisions of transit infrastructure priorities in Toronto historically and politically tend to favour affluent and influential communities. The goals, preferences and strategies of active transportation planning for Toronto, therefore, is worth a critical discussion and engagement. If the benefits of active transportation investments are to be fairly distributed across the city and among all users, equity will have to be comprehensively addressed in the planning process. The goal of this research paper is to evaluate Toronto’s current initiatives in active transportation planning in terms of social and spatial equities and to bring forward discrepancies in practices to outline relevant strategic directions.

  • Humber Bay Shores Condominium Association
    HUMBER BAY SHORES CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATION 2240 Lake Shore Blvd West Suite 227 Toronto, Ontario M8V 0B1 416-792-4964 February 22, 2018 Mr. J Robert Prichard, Chair Mr. Phil Verster, President & CEO Metrolinx 97 Front Street West, Toronto ON M5J 1E6 Dear Sir: RE: Park Lawn GO Station – Re-evaluation and Issues with Initial Business Case At your March 8th board meeting, the Humber Bay Shores Condominium Association (“HBSCA”) hopes Metrolinx will reconsider a GO station in the Humber Bay Shores (“HBS”) area around Park Lawn Rd in south Etobicoke (i.e., Park Lawn station). As discussed below, the HBSCA believes the assumptions that were used in previously rejecting a Park Lawn station are not reflective of the current situation and significantly underestimate the financial and economic net benefits of the potential station. The HBS area, on the south side of a potential Park Lawn station, is a high rise community that will soon have about 50 residential condominium buildings, including about 18 buildings in the 40 to 65 storey range. It is one of the most densely populated areas in Toronto, and along with other areas around a potential Park Lawn station, has the potential for significantly more development. Also, due to the local geography, the HBS is the best location for a transportation hub in south Etobicoke. Having reviewed the initial business case for a Park Lawn GO station1 (“IBC”), the HBSCA has a number of concerns. In particular, we believe Metrolinx should consider the following points, the support for which is set out in the attached Appendix A.

  • James Maloney
    James Maloney Member of Parliament for Etobicoke-Lakeshore Député d’Etobicoke– Lakeshore June 23, 2016 Metrolinx Mr. R. Pritchard, Chair of the Board 97 Front Street West Toronto, ON M5J 1E6 Dear Chair Pritchard and Board Members: I understand that The Board of Directors of Metrolinx will be meeting on June 28, 2016, to discuss the recent report dealing with the proposed new transit stops in and around the City of Toronto. The purpose of this letter is to ask that the Board reconsider the decision to exclude a new stop at the intersection of Park Lawn and Lakeshore. The Humber Bay Shores Community is one of the largest and most rapidly growing communities in our City. Forty years ago this community did not exist. Within ten years, the population will exceed 30,000 people. This does not include the surrounding area. During that time, the transit options have not increased to sufficiently meet the demands of population growth in this area. As the road access in the area is not physically capable of being expanded, the transportation situation in the neighbourhood is verging on crisis. The local Councillor for Ward 6, Mark Grimes, has been lobbying to implement new transit options for many years. This includes the request that a new Go Station be built near the intersection of Park Lawn Road and Lakeshore Blvd. The initiative is supported by the local Member of Provincial Parliament, Peter Milczyn, along with Ward 5 Councillor Justin Di Ciano. All levels of government are in agreement. I wish to emphasize, however, that the greatest source of support comes from the community itself.
