The
clerk
has
spent
the
lunch
time
trying
to
organize
all
the
motions
that
they
have.
She's
gonna
be
handing
out
just
a
sheet
and
organizing
sheet
as
we
do
in
Council.
So
as
you
have
all
the
motions
you'll
be
able
to
organize
them
according
to
how
we'll
be
voting
on
them.
So
that's
gonna
be
coming
around.
A
So
we
have
five
minutes
to
speak
and
you
also
have
to
move
your
motions
I'm
going
to
ask.
We
have
a
sort
of
an
order
here
and
that
has
more
to
do
with
the
motions
on
how
we're
voting
on
them
so
be
counselor,
Bradford,
Leighton,
Carol,
Crawford
and
then,
of
course,
other
members
too.
But
those
are
the
sort
of
the
order
where
the
motions
gonna
be
coming
to
vote
with.
So
if
that's,
okay
with
everyone
you
don't
have
to,
but
I'm
just
suggesting
that
I.
A
A
B
Okay
thanks,
let's
say
the
first
budget
year
has
been
very
interesting
in:
what's
been
a
kind
of
consolidated
and
expedited
process
after
the
election.
Definitely
lots
of
learning
and
appreciate
all
of
staffs
and
the
committee's
work
and
outside
counselors
work
as
well
on
this
and
bringing
important
questions
forward
and
having
those
conversations,
I
also
really
enjoyed
going
out
to
deputations
and
listening
to
residents
across
the
city.
Scarborough
and
Etobicoke
is
certainly
down
here
at
City
Hall
as
well.
That's
been
very
meaningful
and
impactful
and
an
important
part
of
the
process.
B
But
at
the
same
time,
we're
also
recognizing
that
the
city
needs
to
and
needs
to
continue
measure
those
important
equity
impacts
and
how
that
that
changes
in
our
budget
priority
process.
So
you
know
the
TTC
and
we
do
work
on
that
front
as
well
is
really
trying
to
mitigate
the
you
know:
negative
impacts
from
an
equity
perspective
as
the
fare
increase
by
funding
Phase
two
of
the
fair
pass
program.
B
That's
that's
important,
and,
and
you
know
it's,
we
need
to
make
sure
that
all
Torontonians
are
having
access
to
the
supports
and
opportunities
that
our
transit
system
provides.
That
said,
it's
definitely
not
just
on
City
Hall
to
take
care
of
all
these
things,
and
we
need
to
be
looking
at
our
provincial
and
federal
partners
to
help
fund
these
important
city
services,
and
that
was
something
that
came
up
in
an
item
after
item
after
item.
We
need
partnerships,
we
need
meaningful
partnerships
and
we
need
predictable
funding
streams
from
those
levels
of
government.
B
There's
been
a
lot
of
conversation
about
our
long
term,
capital
plans
and
the
state
of
good
repair
backlogs.
It's
definitely
a
tough
road
ahead
of
us.
You
know
if
this
is
the
2019
budget,
but
we're
gonna
keep
coming
back
to
these
conversations
year
after
year
and
we'll
continue
it
in
2020.
We
have
to
find
ways
to
tackle
these
projects
together
as
a
city
as
a
province
as
a
country
and
I'm.
B
Looking
forward
to
working
on
those
opportunities
for
me
and
and
the
motion
that
we
have
up
here,
you
know
the
things
that
we're
working
on
and
are
important
is
in
improving
the
vibrancy
of
our
Main
streets
and
understanding
the
policies
from
an
economic
development
perspective.
The
vacant
storefronts.
Looking
at
how
policies
like
phasing
out
the
vacant,
commercial
and
industrial
tax
rebate
can
actually
have
a
positive
impact
on
our
Main
streets.
B
So
we
brought
forward
a
number
of
briefing
note,
requests
on
these
items
and
I
look
forward
to
having
the
time
to
go
through
them
in
more
detail
in
the
2020
budget
process
and
I'm,
also
looking
forward
to
you
know
taking
our
time
and
going
through
in
in
the
fall
months
and
into
winter
and
having
a
bit
more
time
to
have
those
conversations
with
Torontonians
going
forward
for
the
2020
budget
as
well.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
C
Just
a
couple
of
quick
questions,
because
there
there
are
a
couple
of
typos
that
the
clerk
can't
change
without
hearing
it
from
you
and
I
think
they
are
just
typos
the
the
economic
development
when
the
metrics
and
tools
that
can
be
used
to
measure
the
impact
on
reducing
vacant
storefronts
of
the
elimination
of
the
vacant.
Commercial
industrial.
Is
that
and
that
or
what?
What
is
the
intent
measure?
The
impact
on
reducing
vacant?
Storefronts
of
eliminating
could.
B
C
Impact
of
eliminating
okay,
so
if
we
just
made
that
of
eliminating
or
just
make
a
little
more
sense
and
for
the
and
then
the
other
one
sorry
and
then
the
other
one,
there
was
just
one
other
one
on
the
TTC.
You
want
the
number
of
requests
that
Tron
Transit
Commission
has
made
in
the
past
right,
yes,
yeah,
so
just
so,
they
think
they
make
sense
a
month
from
now
when
somebody's
acting
on
it,
yeah
yeah,
yeah,
okay,
yeah-
that
just
makes
them
a
little
smoother
to
read
excellent
yeah.
So
those
are
friendly,
yeah
Thank.
D
To
read
them
so
motion
a
City
Council
requests,
the
GM
transportation
consolation
was
a
solicitor
to
look
at
Lane,
occupancy
fees
and
charging
actually
a
market
rate
motion.
B
City
Council
request,
general
managers,
shelter,
sports
and
housing
to
look
at
the
expansion
of
the
rent
bank
and
trustee
ship
program.
Prior
to
the
2020
budget
motion,
C
City
Council
requests
the
director
Energy
Environment
to
consider
how
to
implement
the
implementation
plan
for
transfer
to
transform
T,
oh
and
I.
Have
it
reflect
the
IPCC
carbon
reduction
targets
that
they've
now
changed?
D
D
That
the
City
Council
increased
the
2019
recommended
staff
operating
budget
for
the
TPL
by
0.85
million
gross
and
net
for
the
rid
for
the
addition
of
ten
youth
hubs
associated
locations
across
the
city
and
that
be
offset
by
an
increase
in
the
residential
property
tax
rate
by
point
zero
to
eight
under
G
that
City
Council
increased
the
2019
operating
budget
for
s
DFA
by
ninety
thousand
gross
and
net
to
fund
the
seniors
home
sharing
program
and
that
the
residential
property
tax
increase
be
offset
by
point.
Zero,
zero,
three
H
shelters,
support
and
Housing
Administration.
D
D
We
offset
that
by
the
residential
property
tax
rate
by
point:
zero,
zero,
four
to
the
H
two,
that
City
Council
increased
of
2019
staff
operating
budget
for
sha
by
seventy
thousand
net
to
fund
the
expansion
of
the
rent
bank
and
trustee
ship
program
administered
by
the
neighborhood
information
post
and
that
be
offset
by
residential
property
tax
increase
by
point
zero.
Zero.
Two.
D
I
I'll
first
thank
the
budget
chief,
then
for
offering
me
enough
time
to
ask
some
additional
rounds
of
questions
today
and
for
introducing
them
introducing
my
budget
motions.
You
know
what
I
think,
there's
too,
that
that
I
took
from
this
budget
that
and
perhaps
it's
because
its
staff
led,
and
it
should
be
driven
by
the
leadership
at
City
Hall
that
I
found
it
two
things,
one
very
uninspired
that
we're
doing
little
to
actually
address
some
of
the
major
issues
in
the
city,
around
transportation,
transit
and
housing
and
I.
D
Think
that's
for
a
very
good
reason.
We
have
an
authorized
staff
to
be
vocal
fold
in
their
actions
and
and
strategies
was
we've
in
fact
tried
to
restrain
them
by
giving
them
direction
year
over
year.
That
really
doesn't
inspire
and,
second,
that
it's
unfair
that
we've
chosen
to
actually
I
to
balance
this
budget
in
in
an
unfair
way
looking
for
sources
of
income
that
don't
distribute
the
cost
fairly
in
our
city.
D
Recognizing
the
importance
of
some
of
these
programs
I
think
that
it
was
unfair
that
previous
councils,
both
the
this
past
term
and
the
term
before
that,
have
left
the
financial
state
of
our
city
in
such
a
terrible
place.
We
have
over
thirty
million
dollars
of
unallocated
cut
stuff.
We
don't
know
yet,
where
we're
gonna
find
that
money.
We
have
forty
five
million
dollars
that
were
waiting
to
hear
from
the
province
up
they've
known
for
two
weeks.
We
got
a
week
and
a
half.
D
Yet
to
get
that
it
was
unfair
that
the
previous
council
left
city
staff
in
this
position.
They
had
to
bring
a
budget
forward
like
this.
It's
unfair
that
that
we've
seen
an
increase
in
the
state
of
good
repair
needed
for
TCH
C
for
roads
for
parks
all
across
the
board.
The
only
one
that's
funded
is
the
gardener.
D
D
It's
also
unfair
that
the
federal
and
provincial
governments
have
left
us
floating
in
the
wind
here
without
the
funding
for
operating
budgets
for
our
TTC
without
money
going
to
our
enough
going
to
TCH
C
for
state
of
good
repair
and
certainly
not
enough
going
to
SSH,
a
I
would
have
expected
that
they
would
have
stood
up
by
now
and
said,
knowing
that
your
budget
is
coming
up,
here's
what
your
allocation
will
be.
They
haven't
done
that
and
they're
leaving
us
wondering
about
what
we're
gonna
do.
D
I
want
to
go
through
the
motions
quickly,
I
think
the
first
three
speak
for
themselves.
The
fourth
number
D
number
D
letter
D
around
the
TTC
I,
don't
and
I'm
not
proud
that
we
are
a
city
that
puts
so
much
of
the
cost
of
our
transit
system
on
the
back
of
transit
riders.
This
is
a
system
that
makes
our
city
function
better.
We
perform
better
internationally
when
we
have
a
more
affordable
and
functional
system.
D
So,
let's
focus
not
to
say
anything
bad
about
the
zoo,
but
let
us
focus
and
if
we
really
want
to
be
a
city
that
that
invests
in
things
like
public
transit,
we
put
transit,
ridership
and
riders
as
something
that
benefits
the
city,
not
just
those
individuals.
Second,
on
pf'
and
our.
If
you
look
at
the
state
of
our
ravines
there's
no
active
removal
of
garbage
from
our
ravines
they're
deplorable
I
didn't
represent
ravines
before
this
tournament,
council
I've
gone
in
some
tours.
It's
disgusting!
D
How
we've
let
these
ravines
degrade,
and
we
need
to
do
something
about
it.
I
think
those
kids
from
Regent
that
came
out
and
demonstrated
that
they
need
better
access
to
their
swim
programs
deserve
to
have
deserve
that
point:
zero,
zero,
six
percent
offset
from
our
residence
from
our
residential
property
tax
rate
so
that
they
can
access
those
swimming
programs
better.
The
the
U
spaces
I
think
we've
seen
time
and
time
again
they
work,
let's
invest
in
them
more
boldly.
Let's
not
be
timid
with
to
open
as
planned.
Let's
jump
right
in.
D
We
know
that
they
can
have
effects
the
seniors
Home
Sharing
program.
It
didn't
come
up
much,
that's
probably
because
the
it
didn't
appear
that
that
program
was
running
out.
This
is
the
program
that
helps
pair
seniors
with
young
people
to
get
them
in
their
homes
to
help
offset
the
cost
of
their
their
house,
as
well
as
give
them
some
companionship
and
support
the
the
tenant's
hotline.
D
We
are
at
a
critical
moment
in
our
city,
wherein
tenants
are
being
evicted
from
their
homes
for
rent
up
for
renovations
and
for
other
means
we
need
to
give
them
the
supports
they
need.
If
you
didn't
hear
about
the
rent
bank
program,
this
keeps
these.
This
keeps
difficult
to
house
people
in
their
homes
and
saves
us
money
in
the
long
term.
We
should
be
investing
in
that
more
I'm.
D
Gonna
leave
my
comments
there,
but
we
need
to
provide
more
latitude,
more
more
vision
for
our
staff
to
come
through
and
say
no
if
we
want
to
achieve
those
levels
of
service,
you're
gonna
have
to
fund
our
programs
and
departments,
and
we
need
to
be
bold
enough
to
go
and
tell
our
residents
that
we
need
to
raise
the
revenue
to
do
that.
I'm
suggesting
we
do
it
on
our
property
taxes.
By
way
of
this
motion,
Thank.
C
C
Three,
four:
six
nine
grows
a
net
to
fund
the
implementation
of
the
open
hours
plan
phase,
one
in
2019
through
a
property
tax
increase
of
0.11%
development
charges
for
the
Leslie
Naimark
Toronto
Community,
Housing,
Corporation
development,
that
city
city
council,
direct,
the
chief
financial
officer
and
treasurer
in
consultation
with
the
DCM
community
and
social
services
to
include
in
the
2021
capital
plan
submission
the
impact
of
increased
development
charges
on
Toronto,
community
houses
and
portion
of
the
Leslie
Naimark
social
housing.
Revitalization.
C
Next
that
City
Council
request
the
general
manager.
This
is
on
behalf
of
councillor
wong-tam
request,
the
general
manager
self
to
housing
and
support
conduct;
consultation
with
operators
of
city
funded,
shelters,
respite
and
drop-in
centers
program,
participants,
community
stakeholders
and
menstral
equity
advocates,
such
as
the
period
purse
on
the
access
distribution
and
the
real
cost
of
menstrual
products
and
the
feasibility
of
providing
such
products
free
of
charge
to
low-income,
dense
traders
and
to
report
back
to
the
economic
and
Community
Development
Committee.
C
By
May,
27th
2019
and
lastly,
that
City
Council
refer
the
report
from
the
city
manager
on
Toronto's
part
in
participatory
budgeting
pilot
evaluation
to
the
Budget
Committee
for
further
consideration.
You
don't
have
on
paper.
This
one
was
pulled
out
from
recommendation
for
I
it's
non
financial,
but
that
would
have
to
to
be
moved
by
us
so
that
machines
could
get
on
with
the
creation
of
the
toolkit,
even
as
we're
forwarding
the
report
on
the
evaluation
so
so
councillors
the
first.
My
first
motion
has
a
property
tax
impact.
C
If
you
take,
if
you
take
that
impact
and
all
of
the
motions
that
councillor
Layton
just
move
to
the
property
tax
impact
together,
they
represent
one-fifth
of
1%
increase
to
the
proposed
property
tax
increase.
That's
point
two
of
a
percent,
but
in
all
good
conscience,
I.
Actually,
myself
I
want
to
see
open
hours
happen.
I
know
the
impact
of
it
from
the
work.
C
Open
hours
is
something
that
has
to
happen.
It's
a
youth
strategy.
It's
a
poverty
reduction
strategy,
all
of
our
strategies.
If
we
had
a
strategy
at
the
top
of
it
would
be,
libraries
should
be
open
all
the
time
and
so
I
want
it
to
happen.
But
this
budget
isn't
even
balanced.
Yes,
so
in
all
good
conscience,
I
can't
go
digging
into
a
reserve.
C
We're
gonna
do
that,
just
to
get
to
the
point
where
we
can
call
this
budget
balanced
when
we
get
to
executive
because
the
federal
government
hasn't
come
through
for
us
and
we're
at
the
11th
hour.
I,
actually
don't
think
we
can
criticize
the
provincial
government
at
this
point
as
councillor
Layton
did
under
any
government.
They
now
actually
contribute
to
our
operating
budget
in
the
20s
of
percents
22%,
roughly,
which
is
roughly
what
a
state
government
is
contributing
to
any
major
in
the
United
States.
The
difference
is
in
those
united
states
in
their
major
cities.
C
The
federal
government
also
contributes
in
the
20s,
usually
24%
hours,
two
percent
and
that's
overall
for
police
for
TTC.
So
there's
really
only
one
of
the
two
orders
of
government.
That's
a
little
short.
You
will
see
the
development
charges
motion.
This
is
pursuant
to
the
motion
that
councilor
shiner
move.
This
is
a
motion
that
that
follows
up
on
councillor
shiner.
Having
referred
this
issue
to
the
budget
process,
the
value
to
resolve
this
issue
isn't
known
until
we
get
to
where
the
development
charges
will
be
charged
at
whatever
the
rate
is
that's.
C
C
If
we
adopt
the
budget
Chiefs
motion
today
and
that's
good
news,
we
don't
want
it
to
happen
again
and
we
want
the
fix
to
be
sustainable
and
well
understood,
and
it
was
clear
to
me
throughout
this
budget
process,
that
it
wasn't
well
understood
and
so
that
that
will
solve
that
problem.
And,
lastly,
the
budget
participatory
budgeting
motions.
You
you
know
from
my
comments
before
lunch.
The
evaluation
report
is
very,
very
important
to
everyone
who
participated
and
yet
they
never
had
their
day
to
speak
to
you
of
the
25
councillors.
C
Two
of
the
three
participating
the
pilot
are
no
longer
even
on
council
and
they
want
you
to
understand
what
they
experienced
and
and
and
understand
their
feelings
on
the
evaluation
report
before
we
put
it
to
bed
and
that's
why
I'm
referring
it
to
a
committee
so
that
we
can
hear
from
them.
Certainly
not
all
600
are
going
to
speak
to
you
that
we
meet
in
the
daytime.
So
that's
not
going
to
happen.
C
Mr.
chair
I've
said
that
this
budget
isn't
balanced
and
I'm
very
concerned
about
that
I.
Don't
know
that
a
magic
pot
of
money
is
going
to
arrive
here
by
next
year,
so
all
of
the
deferred
capital
capital
and
the
fact
that
for
the
first
time
in
many
years
we
are
breaking
our
rule.
That
10%
goes
to
CFC
out
of
every
budget,
and
so
that's
why
I
don't
think
anybody
should
be
changing
this
budget
at
all
unless
they
are
doing
it
by
being
honest
about
what
we
need
to
be
charging
in
property
tax,
Thank
You,
mr.
A
First
is
there's
a
couple:
these
are
from
back
in
February
4th
and
six
first
ones
to
do
with
the
Auditor
General
to
bring
future
annual
budget
process
documents
and
costs
to
us.
Second,
is
a
social
development
administration
is
to
have
the
used
spaces.
This
is
a
request
as
part
of
the
poverty
reduction
strategy.
Two
points
there
would
have
bring
that
back
to
us.
A
A
Now
this
this
is
all
about
reassess
undertaking
following
key
capital
strategies,
reassessing
a
ten-year
capital
budget
plans
and
a
number
of
things
I'm
not
going
to
read
it
all.
This
is
really
about
the
new
budgeting
process
that
going
to
be
looking
at
tomorrow
and
dealing
with
our
capital
issues
that
have
been
topic
of
a
conversation
as
part
of
this
budget

I,

finally,
that
to

Toronto,
Transit,
Commission
and
Weill
transit
operating
budgets.
This
is
the
Toronto
Transit,
Commission
operating
and
capital
budgets.
I
won't
go
through
that
and,
of
course,
we
all
chance.
A
First
of
all,
I
want
to
to
thank
staff
for
the
incredible
work
that
they
have
done.
This
is
an
election
budget
coming
out
of
an
election,
and
they
did
the
bulk
of
the
work,
I
think
and
what
we
have
seen.
We
of
course
have
contributed
to
that,
but
they
have
done
along
with
the
city
manager
and
everybody
an
exceptional
job
of
bringing
us
this
budget.
A
Of
course,
I
want
to
thank
the
consultations
and
all
the
people
that
we
had
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
and
talk
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks
who
brought
their
there
there
information
about
the
budget.
This
has
been
a
tough
budget
year
and
I
think
primarily
because
of
the
underperformance
of
the
ML
TT,
which
is
about
83
million
dollars
less
of
what
we
expected.
A
We
want
to
go
with
transform
teal
youth
equity
when
you're
looking
at
the
TTC
and
the
historic
investments
that
we
have
done
to
the
TTC,
the
Toronto
Police.
We
have
835
new
FTEs
coming
this
year
over
a
number
of
different
categories,
we're
looking
at
beginning
in
2019
poverty
reduction,
two
points
they
were
looking
at
the
next
step
or
where
we're
going
to
be
going
in
in
what
we
want
to
do
as
a
city.
A
lot
of
the
motions
that
some
of
the
my
colleagues
have
moved
today.
A
In
fact,
our
motions
that
we
really
need
to
be
looking
at
next
year.
As
we
look
at
those
strategies
going
into
2019,
we're
gonna
be
reviewing
the
snow
clearing.
That
was
a
big
issue
with
a
lot
of
us
this
year.
We're
gonna
be
looking
at
that
in
2019,
but
what
we
have
been
able
to
do
is
we've
been
able
to
keep
taxes
at
the
rate
of
inflation.
We've
been
able
to
do
what
the
residents
I
think
across
the
city
want.
A
We
had
the
mayor
out
in
an
election,
we
had
his
main
opponent
out
on
taxes,
keeping
property
taxes
low,
so
the
two
main
mayoral
candidates
in
this
election
both
had
a
platform
of
keeping
taxes
affordable
for
the
citizens
of
the
seat,
and
we
have
been
able
to
maintain
that.
Of
course,
we
have.
You
know
some
issues
with
regard
to
the
unprecedented
demand
in
the
shelter
system.
Yes,
we
do
have
a
number
that
we
need.
The
federal
government
to
to
live
up
to.
A
A
There
are
lots
of
efficiencies.
There
are
lots
of
commitments
to
have
an
efficient
government
in
this.
In
this
budget
and
I
know,
staff
have
worked
incredibly
hard
at
that
and
we
have
been
hearing
and
we'll
hear
it.
We've
heard
at
the
last
couple
of
weeks
we
heard
it
today
we're
going
to
hear
it
a
council
that
they're
you
know
the
doom
and
gloom
of
having
to
raise
taxes
to
be
able
to
build
this
city.
I,
don't
prescribe
to
that
ideology.
A
I
prescribed
to
the
ideology:
we
keep
the
city
affordable,
we
keep
taxes
low,
but
we
continue
to
do
the
investments
and
we
have
shown
that
over
the
last
four
years
every
year
we
have
the
same
debate
about
keeping
property
taxes
low,
but
we
continue
to
invest
in
the
city.
Sometimes
there
are
tough
decisions.
Absolutely,
but
I
also
want
to
end
with
this
and
I.
A
Don't
know
if
everybody
realized
last
year
or
last
week,
Moody's
maintain
the
city's
double
a
one
credit
rating
and
applauded
the
Toronto,
sound
governance
and
prudent
fiscal
planning
that
came
out
last
week.
So
what
that
says
is
we
are
doing
a
good
job
by
the
people
who
have
to
assess
how
well
we're
doing
on
a
fiscal
so
that
that
that
is.
A
A
A
A
Councillor
number
eight,
a
letter
on
favor
opposed,
that's
carried
motion,
see
o'the
motion.
Oh
we're
gonna
do
motion
also
will
do
B
at
the
end.
So
the
motion
see
next
all
in
favor
opposed
that
carries
motion
D
recorded
vote,
please
recorded
vote
all
in
favor,
councillor,
Carroll
counts
of
Layton
opposed
councillor,
Bradford,
Crawford
and
McKelvey,
and
none
zyada
that
loses.
A
A
D
A
A
A
A
C
Sorry,
mister
chair,
but
I
need
I
had
an
important
question
on
that.
One.
If
I'm
not
gonna,
be
able
to
ask
it,
I'm
gonna
have
to
separate
it
out
was
the
one
to
do
with
leveraging
assets
is
that
is
that
in
contradiction
of
our
create
tío
and
facilities
strategy,
do
we
not
already
have
directions
to
do
with
that.
C
Because
we
have
in
the
past,
we
had
we
had
a
build
teo
and
it
was
just
leverage
assets
to
help
us
fund
our
capital
need.
We
now
have
a
corporation,
that's
supposed
to
do
highest
and
best
use
and
meet
some
of
our
needs
not
by
selling,
but
by
doing
other
things
now,
I
have
a
budget
recommendation
to
go
back
to
just
leveraging
asset
I.
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
On
favor
suppose,
that's
carried
so
the
daf-2
staff
recommendations,
as
amended
recorded
vote,
please
on
favor
councillor,
Bradford,
Crawford,
McKelvey,
Annunziata
opposed
councillor,
Carol,
councillor,
Layton
and
I
believe
we
have
just
one
last
item,
which
is
BU
4.5,
the
additional
City
of
Toronto
reporting
requirements
as
a
result
of
Ontario
regulation.
286
/
0-9
budget
matters,
expenses,
which
is
bu
4.50
favor.
No
questions
is
that
no
I'm,
a
favor
opposed
that's
carried.
