  • Planning for Missing Middle Housing in Toronto's Yellowbelt
    Filling in the Housing Gaps: Planning for Missing Middle Housing in Toronto’s Yellowbelt By Aria Popal Supervised by Dr. Luisa Sotomayor 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 31st, 2020 i ABSTRACT The City of Toronto is experiencing a well-known housing affordability crisis. As the fastest growing city in North America with the highest construction activity, expensive condominium developments in the City’s designated areas for growth, such as the downtown core, are dominating the housing market as the leading type of supply. On the other hand, Toronto prides itself upon being a city of neighbourhoods, by alluding to the other form of supply in the city as single-family homes or single detached dwellings. To contend with the convolutions of the housing market, a discourse of the Missing Middle emerged in the 2010s as a new angle from which to examine the housing affordability crisis in North American cities. The Missing Middle is a multifaceted term that generally refers to a need for more housing typologies that are in scale with single-family homes but are limited to four units in height; to be added as gentle or medium density to designated single-family neighbourhoods. I assess the Missing Middle as an approach, a strategy, and a discourse to moderate the housing crisis. By conducting interviews with interested city-builders, community members and vocal advocates for the development of Missing Middle housing in Toronto, this paper presents different views and perspectives on the limits and opportunities that such approach may provide.

  • A Study of Car and House Ownership in the Face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE)
    A Study of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE) by Elli Maria Papaioannou A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Applied Science Graduate Department of Civil Engineering University of Toronto © Copyright by Elli Maria Papaioannou, 2014 A Study of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE) Elli Maria Papaioannou Masters of Applied Science Department of Civil Engineering University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This research presents the design, implementation and results of a survey of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE). The CHOICE survey is a web-based survey that combines RP and SP components, and was designed to collect information of commuting mode choices, housing and neighbourhood preferences along with vehicle ownership choices of households with cross-regional commuters in the Greater Toronto Area. Investigations of the survey data revealed that for small increases in commuting costs people are willing to change to more efficient cars. As commuting costs reached higher levels, participants chose to relocate their home in order to commute shorter distances. This study provides evidence that vehicle ownership and especially residential location decisions are a complex process and are interrelated. The findings of this study show some of the possible reactions of households in the GTA in the face of extreme increases in transportation costs. ii Acknowledgments This two-year-long journey flew by and I am standing at the end of it today trying to think of all the challenges I faced, all the wonderful and bright people I met, all the things I learned, and all the friends I earned.

  • 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.

  • Every Tree Counts. a Portrait of Toronto's Urban Forest
    Every Tree Counts A Portrait of Toronto’s Urban Forest Parks, Forestry & Recreation Urban Forestry Parks, Forestry & Recreation Urban Forestry Every Tree Counts A Portrait of Toronto’s Urban Forest Foreword For decades, people flying into Toronto have observed that it is a very green city. Indeed, the sight of Toronto’s tree canopy from the air is impressive. More than 20 years ago, an urban forestry colleague noted that the trees in our parks should, and in many cases do, spill over into the streets like extensions of the City’s parks. Across Toronto and the entire Greater Toronto Area, the urban forest plays a significant role in converting subdivisions into neighbourhoods. Most people have an emotional connection to trees. In cities, they represent one of our remaining links to the natural world. Properly managed urban forests provide multiple services to city residents. Cleaner air and water, cooler temperatures, energy savings and higher property values are among the many benefits. With regular man- agement, these benefits increase every year as trees continue to grow. In 2007,Toronto City Council adopted a plan to significantly expand the City’s forest cover to between 30-40%. Parks, Forestry and Recreation responded with a Forestry Service Plan aimed at managing our existing growing stock, protecting the forest and planting more trees. Strategic management requires a detailed understanding of the state of the City’s forest resource. The need for better information was a main reason to undertake this study and report on the state of Toronto’s tree canopy. Emerging technologies like the i-Tree Eco model and remote sensing techniques used in this forestry study provide managers with new tools and better information to plan and execute the expansion, protection and maintenance of Toronto’s urban forest.

  • Who Will Lead the Liberals? Candidates Line up to Represent the Liberals in Beaches-East York Riding
    ww The East York ROLL CALL n Roller derby skates into town OBSERVER Page 5 Serving our community since 1972 Vol. 43, No. 6 www.torontoobserver.ca Friday, April 25, 2014 Who will lead the Liberals? Candidates line up to represent the Liberals in Beaches-East York riding By NOLAN WHITE The Observer The competition is heating up in Beaches-East York to carry the Liberal banner into the next federal election. Businessman Tom McGee is already holding events in the riding to promote his run at the local riding associa- tion’s nomination. Meanwhile, lawyer Jeff Rybak — also the vice-president of the Harmony Hall Centre for Seniors — has launched a website for his campaign to become the Liberals’ candidate in the riding. And now fellow lawyer Nathaniel Erskine-Smith is pro- moting his intent to capture the riding association’s nod. All with the federal election still a year and a half away. But the local Liberals are laying groundwork now in the hope that next year they’ll recapture Beaches-East York from New Democrat MP Matthew Kellway, who beat incumbent Liberal Maria Minna in 2011. For his part, Smith, 29, says he has had a nearly life-long interest in politics — since his years on student council, back when he attended high school at Malvern Collegiate. He has been a lawyer since 2011, practicing in commercial litigation, but he said he also tries to maintain involvement in public interest matters of the community. In an interview, Smith said that he was born and raised in Beaches-East York.
