  • Term Care for Seniors at 640 Lansdowne Avenue
    EX3.6 REPORT FOR ACTION Creating New Affordable Rental Homes and Long- Term Care For Seniors at 640 Lansdowne Avenue Date: March 12, 2019 To: Executive Committee From: Deputy City Manager, Community and Social Services & Deputy City Manager, Corporate Services Wards: Ward 9 - Davenport SUMMARY The number of people in Toronto aged 65 and over is expected to almost double by 2041. This growing population of seniors will spur a demand for more affordable housing as well as long-term care homes to be developed specifically to address the evolving needs of seniors in our city. In recognition of the growing urgency to provide both affordable rental and long-term care homes for seniors, at its meeting on May 22, 23 and 24, 2018, City Council requested the Director, Affordable Housing Office, in consultation with CreateTO, to include the opportunity for development of long-term care beds within the affordable housing development planned for a portion of the Toronto Transit Commission property at 640 Lansdowne Avenue. On August 2, 2018, CreateTO, on behalf of the Affordable Housing Office, issued a Request for Proposals ("RFP") for Developing and Operating Affordable Housing Services at 640 Lansdowne Avenue. The RFP offered the one-third, Mixed Use designated portion of the site under a lease arrangement for 99 years at nominal rent to stimulate development of the site and ensure long-term affordability for seniors. The RFP closed on September 6, 2018 and four submissions were received. Since September 2018, CreateTO and City staff have been in discussions with Magellan Community Charities, the proposed proponent, and this report recommends that the City enter into a Letter of Intent ("LOI"), outlining the terms and conditions of the lease and the City's Open Door incentives being provided for the up to 65 affordable rental homes being proposed.

  • Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS
    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

Ensuring that our beaches are clean and accessible is essential to making that revitalization happen. As places to play and enjoy nature, they contribute to and enhance the quality of life in Toronto. Because of the tremendous importance of beaches, it’s not surprising that Toronto is so focused on creating great public spaces along the waterfront and making our beaches more swimmable. As Founding Chair of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Cities Initiative, I know that communities within this region are taking steps to improve their beaches. As Canada’s biggest city, we must lead by example. I’m proud that Toronto was the first community in Canada to certify its swimming beaches under the international Blue Flag program. The Blue Flag has now been raised at six of our beaches. This is a great start, but we shouldn’t be satisfied until all of our beaches are certified – and until every beach is open for swimming every day during the summer. We’ve made great progress over the past five years in improving Toronto’s beaches. The Toronto Beaches Plan lays out the actions needed to make our beaches cleaner, safer, more usable, more accessible and greener. It’s a broad agenda, ranging from water quality to amenities to programming.
