Toronto City Council Enviro Report Card 2010-2014
TORONTO CITY COUNCIL ENVIRO REPORT CARD 2010-2014 TORONTO ENVIRONMENTAL ALLIANCE • JUNE 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY hortly after the 2010 municipal election, TEA released a report noting that a majority of elected SCouncillors had committed to building a greener city. We were right but not in the way we expected to be. Councillors showed their commitment by protecting important green programs and services from being cut and had to put building a greener city on hold. We had hoped the 2010-14 term of City Council would lead to significant advancement of 6 priority green actions TEA had outlined as crucial to building a greener city. Sadly, we’ve seen little - if any - advancement in these actions. This is because much of the last 4 years has been spent by a slim majority of Councillors defending existing environmental policies and services from being cut or eliminated by the Mayor and his supporters; programs such as Community Environment Days, TTC service and tree canopy maintenance. Only in rare instances was Council proactive. For example, taking the next steps to grow the Greenbelt into Toronto; calling for an environmental assessment of Line 9. This report card does not evaluate individual Council members on their collective inaction in meeting the 2010 priorities because it is almost impossible to objectively grade individual Council members on this. Rather, it evaluates Council members on how they voted on key environmental issues. The results are interesting: • Average Grade: C+ • The Mayor failed and had the worst score. • 17 Councillors got A+ • 16 Councillors got F • 9 Councillors got between A and D In the end, the 2010-14 Council term can be best described as a battle between those who wanted to preserve green programs and those who wanted to dismantle them.

Annual Report
ARNNUAL EPORT 2010 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Toronto Transit Commission As at December 31, 2010 Chair Vice-Chair Karen Stintz Peter Milczyn Commissioners Maria Vincent Frank Norm Denzil Cesar John Augimeri Crisanti Di Giorgio Kelly Minnan-Wong Palacio Parker Letter from the Chair Date: April, 2011 To: Mayor Rob Ford and Councillors of the City of Toronto It is my privilege to submit the 2010 Annual Report for the Toronto Transit Commission, my first since becoming Chair of the TTC. Work Safe-Home Safe There is nothing more important to the TTC than safety – the safety of its customers, as well as the safety of its employees. In 2010, the Work Safe-Home Safe program, a safety initiative designed to reduce workplace injuries at the TTC, continued with great success. Since the program began in 2008, we have seen a reduction in our lost-time injury rate of more than 28 per cent. The program relies on all employees to participate and lead this safety program. Committees made up of unionized employees work with management employees to identify risks, and remove workplace hazards. The program’s goal is to ensure every TTC employee leaves work in the same condition in which he or she arrived – healthy and injury-free. Customer Service In March 2010, as part of the TTC’s commitment to customer service excellence, the Commission approved the formation of an independent Customer Service Advisory Panel. The panel was Chaired by Mr. Steve O’Brien. Mr. O’Brien has 30 years experience in the hospitality industry, and is the General Manager of One King West Hotel and Residence in downtown Toronto.

TTC Annual Report 2011
2011 ANNUAL REPORT Toronto Transit Commission As at December 31, 2011 Chair Vice-Chair Karen Stintz Peter Milczyn Commissioners Maria Vincent Frank Norm Denzil Cesar John Augimeri Crisanti Di Giorgio Kelly Minnan-Wong Palacio Parker Letter from the Chair Date: April, 2012 To: Mayor Rob Ford and Councillors of the City of Toronto It is my privilege to submit the 2011 Annual Report for the Toronto Transit Commission. TTC marks 90 years of service to the citizens of Toronto In September, the Toronto Transit Commission marked its 90th anniversary as a public service in the city of Toronto. On September 1, 1921, the Toronto Transportation Commission (renamed the Toronto Transit Commission in 1954) began serving the residents of Toronto when it took over a mix of private and municipal street railways. Adult fares were set at seven cents and tickets were four for 25 cents. Over the past 90 years, Toronto has seen the opening of Canada’s first subway in 1954, to today’s new subway trains and expansion plans geared toward getting people around the city more quickly. The TTC has become a vital part of life in Toronto, and has played a fundamental role in the quality of life in our city. Tunnelling underway for Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension In June, tunnelling began on the Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension. I had the honour of hosting the event, welcoming our funding partners, represented by the Honourable Peter Kent, Minister of the Environment, representing the Government of Canada; the Honourable Kathleen Wynne, Ontario’s Minister of Transportation; His Worship Rob Ford, Mayor of Toronto; and Bill Fisch, York Region Chairman and CEO.

March 29, 2018 Mayor John Tory Office of the Mayor City Hall, 2Nd Floor 100 Queen St. W. Toronto, on M5H 2N2 Realizing Toronto Y
March 29, 2018 Mayor John Tory Office of the Mayor City Hall, 2nd Floor 100 Queen St. W. Toronto, ON M5H 2N2 Realizing Toronto’s Opportunity to Redevelop Downsview Your Worship, On behalf of the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers (OSPE), I am writing to request your support for the redevelopment of the Downsview lands: an incredible, multi-billion dollar opportunity for the city of Toronto to increase its supply of housing, attract investment and jobs and cement itself as a global centre for engineering innovation. As you are aware, Bombardier Aerospace announced their intention to relocate their operations at Downsview. For Toronto, this move presents a tremendous prospect for innovation and urban renewal that is unparalleled in modern history. Spanning an impressive 375-acres of prime development lands, Toronto’s opportunity at Downsview supersedes previous urban development success stories such as New York’s Hudson Yards and London’s Canary Wharf (24 and 97-acres respectively). Not only is its sheer size unprecedented—Downsview is also shovel-ready, presenting Toronto with a turn-key public project that complements existing infrastructure. Unlike most urban renewal projects around the globe, this development is able to monopolize on existing public infrastructure stock, thereby avoiding the time and resource costs typically associated with the construction of new service and transit linkages. The Downsview lands are situated at the epicentre of three world-class universities and benefits from exceptional connections to existing subway, rail, and highway transportation infrastructure. Developing Downsview can improve the flow and functionality of Toronto’s transit network. The development of the Downsview lands promises to improve ridership and the efficiency of the entire transit network by encouraging two-way passenger flows.

Letter from Councillor Mark Grimes
City of Toronto EP9.2 _______________________________ _______________________________ Mark Grimes Toronto City Hall Toronto City Councillor 100 Queen Street West, Suite C48 Ward 3, Etobicoke-Lakeshore Toronto, Ontario M5H 2N2 Date: January 28, 2020 To: Members of the Board of Governors of Exhibition Place From: Councillor Mark Grimes Subject: Royal Agricultural Winter Fair Association Appointment for 2020 __ SUMMARY: In January of each year, a Notice of Appointment of Representative is received from the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair (RAWF) requesting the appointment of one representative of the Board of Governors to the RAWF. As a member association of the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, The Board is allowed to name one representative to the Royal’s Board of Governors for the 2020 year. At its meeting of February 19, 2019, the Board appointed Howard Lichtman to the RAWF for the 2019 Term. http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2019.EP1.3 At its meeting of March 22, 2018, the Board appointed Connie Dejak to the RAWF for the 2018 Term. http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2018.EP10.14 Given that Howard Lichtman has been a member of the Board since 2017 and has indicated an interest in continuing in this role, I believe it is appropriate that Howard Lichtman continue to represent Exhibition Place for the 2020 term. As a representative, the member can raise issues pertinent to the interests of Exhibition Place as they relate to the business of the RAWF; the Board representative will be updated on financial matters of the Association, the strategic directions of the fair and will have an opportunity to participate in the election of Directors.

Mimico Land Assembly for Waterfront Trail, Ward 3 ______
Mark Grimes Toronto City Hall Toronto City Councillor 100 Queen Street West Ward 3, Etobicoke-Lakeshore Suite C48 Toronto Ontario M5H 2N ______________________________________________________________________________ Date: March 2, 2021 To: Members of Etobicoke York Community Council From: Councillor Mark Grimes Subject: Mimico Land Assembly for Waterfront Trail, Ward 3 ______________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY The Mimico Waterfront Park, situated between Humber Bay Park West and Norris Crescent Parkette, is a 1.1km multi-use waterfront trail created by Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) with funds provided by Waterfront Toronto. It was developed in two phases, the first completed in 2008 and the second in 2012. It provides safe access to the waterfront, improves the ecological functioning of this section of the Lake Ontario shoreline and offers environmental, economic and social benefits to the Mimico community and broader region. Currently the Waterfront Trail along Lake Ontario ends at Norris Crescent, travels north to Lake Shore Boulevard West, and then continues as a cycle track west along Lake Shore Boulevard West to First Street. There are several privately-owned parcels of land along Lake Ontario that preclude the trail from continuing westward. Many of these lands are vacant, for sale, or are being assembled for development. This presents an opportunity to acquire the lands abutting Lake Ontario for the purpose of connecting and continuing the Mimico Waterfront Park westward. This motion seeks a report from City staff, working jointly with the federal and provincial levels of government, TRCA, Waterfront Toronto and other waterfront organizations, with a plan to extend Mimico Waterfront Park between Royal York Rd and First Street, through the sale, acquisition, and development of privately owned lands, including identify potential sources of funding.
