Final
report.
Army
Rodney
is
the
first
speaker
Emir.
F
It's
very
dangerous
I've
seen
accidents
happened
there
when
I
cross
the
street.
There's
cars
coming
at
me
from
every
direction.
I
really
just
used
the
intersection
to
cross
the
street
as
a
subway
and
I
have
to
cross
West
and
cross
north
on
tip
it,
and
then
on
Wilson
I've
brought
up
this
issue
in
a
previous
meeting
and
it
and
was
told
that
a
traffic's
daddy
will
be
commissioned,
but
I
think
that's
not
enough.
I
think
that
it's
obvious
to
anybody
that
uses
the
intersection
that
it's
dangerous
and
that
we
need
alternatives.
F
F
F
Might
bring
more
danger,
you
know
more
people
crossing
the
street
more
cars
I
think
that
before
this
is
approved
and
really
before
any
other
condo
project
in
the
area
is
approved,
we
have
to
look
at
alternatives
to
the
intersection.
What
I
would
propose
is
not
to
allow
right
turns
on
red
lights
and
to
have
a
dedicated
green
light
for
all
left
turns
and.
G
H
G
Anyway,
I
just
want
to,
let
you
know,
are
you
aware
you've
got
a
number
of
other
opportunities
when
the
actual
application
is,
that
is
in
front
of
a
committee
to
really
look
and
find
detail
at
all
the
transportation
issues
that
you've
raised
today.
You
might
not
be
aware
that
you
have
more
chances
than
just
here.
I
I'm,.
G
You've
come
today
to
tell
us
about
the
intersection
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that,
but
I'm
wondering
if
you
know
that
this
isn't
the
only
time
that
this
will
be
discussed
and
those
types
of
details
will
be
looked
at
as
well
at
another
committee.
Are
you
aware
that
that's
the
process
around
this
application?
G
Maybe
not
I'm,
not
sure?
Okay,
you
do
you
just
want
to
let
you
know
you
have
more
chances
than
today
to
talk
about
that
intersection.
Okay,
normally!
Thank
you.
How
could
I
be
notified
of
those
I
believe
so,
if
you've
put
your
name
with
the
clerk
that
the
chair
will
tell
you
how
that
works?
But,
yes,
you
have
ample
opportunity
to
keep
going
on
this
important
issue
of
okay,
50
yeah,
Thank.
I
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
to
City
Hall
to
come
to
City,
Hall,
I
guess
as
living
there.
That's
a
very,
very
busy
intersection,
because
there's
a
bus
depot
there
and
there's
like
a
thousands
of
residents
living
to
the
south,
including
including
yourself
now,
traffic
management
is
something
that
that
we've
tried
numerous
times
through
that
intersection,
you're,
saying
more
has
to
be
done.
I
J
I
K
Good
morning
councillors,
I'm
Mark
Richardson
from
housing
now
co.com
have
Alexei
Guerra
with
me,
who
is
one
of
our
volunteers.
We're
here
today
talked
about
the
Wilson
Heights
site.
We're
actually
really
happy
with
the
work
that's
been
done
on
this
site
over
the
last
year
and
we're
very
thankful
to
the
staff
for
the
work
that
they've
done
on
it.
You've
set
some
goals
for
housing.
Now
some
annual
targets.
You
want
40,000
units
of
new,
affordable
housing
by
2031.
You
want
22
of
those
22,000
of
those
to
be
workforce
housing.
K
K
Our
public
open
data
program
with
housing
now
teo
comm
has
been
around
for
just
over
a
year
we
have
passed
36,000
visitors
to
our
map,
we're
getting
a
lot
of
public
feedback
on
it.
We
know
that
counselors
and
staff
internally
use
it
here
at
City
Hall.
We
know
that
the
media
is
using
it.
It
just
helps
cast
some
transparency
onto
the
processes
around
approving
these
sites.
We
also
have
the
the
one
sheet
which
is
available,
but
particularly
to
the
the
housing
now
site
at
Wilson.
It's
currently
an
8
acre
surface
parking
lot.
K
K
you
charge
25
cents
an
hour
to
park
there
next
to
a
transit
station,
it's
a
giant
site
that
needs
to
be
used
for
for
better
usage,
and
it's
not
just
you
who
are
talking
about
improve,
doing
more
important
things
with
giant
surface
parking
lots.
The
folks
at
Yorkdale,
just
south
of
your
site,
are
also
doing
that
they're
taking
their
parking,
lots
and
they're
transforming
them
into
because
we
have
a
housing
crisis
here
in
the
city.
K
The
original
preliminary
development
concept
for
this
was
around
eleven
hundred
and
fifty
units,
with
385
of
them
being
affordable.
The
revised
number
that
we
saw
in
September
was
fourteen
sixty
four
with
four
hundred
and
eighty-eight
affordable
units.
Our
understanding
is
that
the
numbers
may
have
even
increased
a
little
bit
since
then,
and
you're
now
bumping
up
to
fifteen
hundred
units
on
that
site.
So
it's
really
good
work
from
the
staff,
but
that
shows
you
that
the
original
targets
that
were
set
for
these
housing
now
sites
were
low.
K
You
had
a
twenty
six
percent
increase
in
the
number
of
units
between
January
and
September
of
last
year.
You
added
three
hundred
and
fourteen
units,
so
don't
use
those
numbers
that
were
released
in
December
18
as
the
maximum.
In
many
cases
they
are
far
below
what
these
sites
can
actually
accommodate.
So
we've
taken
just
those
four
sites
that
were
fast-tracked
last
year,
so
you
can
see
what
the
change
was
on
those
sites.
We've
sent
a
letter
in
to
you
and
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
you
have
about
our
response
to
the
Wilson
site.
E
For
a
long
time,
thank
you
very
much
and
as
a
councillor
who
represents
downtown
Toronto,
we
certainly
can
put
a
lot
more
density
on
to
this
particular
large
parcel
of
land.
Why
do
you
think
this
is
a
city
initiated
zoning
amendment?
Why
do
you
think
the
numbers
have
been
so
conservative
recognizing
that
we're
in
the
backdrop
of
a
housing
crisis,
this.
K
One
was
actually
a
site
that
had
a
bit
more
a
bit
more
promise
to
it
because
it
was
classed
as
a
revitalization
lands.
So
you'd
already
done
the
tippet
Road
lands,
which
are
in
the
south
parking
lot.
There's
been
a
lot
of
groundwork,
done
I.
Think
staff
were
trying
their
best
to
do
stuff
at
a
pretty
rapid
pace
after
the
last
election
and
how
they
decided
to
fast-track.
These
sites
was
to
make
them
conform
to
existing
zoning
in
a
lot
of
cases,
and
sometimes
that
existing
zoning
doesn't
really
work
for
the
kinds
of
density.
K
B
So
as
as
Mark
was
saying,
it's
it's
basically
that
I
think
a
lot
of
the
Official
Plan
policy
was
in
place
and
and
would
encourage
the
densities
that
we're
seeing
in
the
most
the
recently
revised
application.
But
certain
things
like
urban
design
guidelines
and
things
like
that
that
were
sort
of
dictating
the
original
bill
form
on
this
site,
including
the
zoning,
were
as
Mark,
was
saying
to
fast
track.
K
Below
marshallers,
let's
there
are
a
couple
of
different
ways
for
us
to
get
there
in
this
example.
If
you
look
at
the
chart
there,
we've
got
four
hundred
and
eighty
eight
that
are
listed
as
affordable.
We
put
the
affordable
buildings
at
the
top
of
the
tower,
not
because
we
expect
me
to
be
penthouse
units,
but
if
you
cut
height
and
density,
the
first
thing
you
lose
are
those
affordable
units.
K
That's
what
happened
at
80
Dale
right,
so
those
units
there's
384
488
in
the
current
plan
right
now,
I
believe
10%
of
those
are
supposed
to
be
more
deeply
affordable,
but
depending
on
who
the
affordable
housing
operator
is
that
you,
partner
with
you,
could
also
be
bringing
all
of
the
new
portable
housing
vouchers,
rent
subsidies
to
these
buildings.
So
even
it's
a
one-bedroom
where
the
operator
is
getting
$1,100
a
month.
They,
the
person
out-of-pocket,
may
only
be
paying
for
500
a
month
for
that
unit,
because
the
rest
is
being
made
up
with
I.
K
K
Number
should
probably
higher,
but
what
are
you
willing
to
trade
for
it?
If
you
look
at
this
example
here,
this
sort
of
shows
that
Mayan
pyramid
step-back
design
that
the
city
planners
into
prefer
here
in
Toronto
every
time
we
step
back,
the
units
become
more
expensive
above
it
and
they
become
more
space
constraint.
K
If
you
want
more
units
that
are
wheelchair
accessible,
you
need
to
have
wider,
doorways
and
bigger
floor
plates,
so,
rather
than
going
up
four
storeys
or
three
storeys
and
stepping
back,
if
you
let
them
go
up
eight
stories
before
I
step
back,
we
have
a
bigger
floor
plate
to
create
more
accessible
units,
so
that
this
is
these
things
are
positive,
but
you
can't
get
them
without
trading,
something
else
away.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
Very
much,
thank
you
just
one
quick
question
mark.
Are
you
aware
that
the
40,000
units
is
not
a
target
of
the
housing
now
but
of
our
housing
plan?
Correct.
K
Okay,
we
are,
we
are
we're
aware
of
that,
but
we
expect
that
these
giant
lazy
land
sites
are
going
to
need
to
carry
a
lot
of
that
burden
that
you
expect
well.
Everything
we
say
about
these
sites
applies
to
inclusionary
zoning
as
well.
If
you
want
inclusionary
zoning
you're
going
to
have
to
make
some
of
these
other
constraints
more
flexible,
to
make
the
math
work,
yeah
sounds
good.
K
I
Thank
you
for
for
coming
and
I
have
your
document
here.
Are
you
aware
that
there's
a
55
acre
vacant
site
just
north
of
here
that
as
part
of
the
Allen
District
pan,
that
is
the
Allen
District
plan
and
there's
nothing
on
it,
except
for
a
subway
station
and
I'm
just
wondering
I'm
curious
to
know
why
you're
focused
on
50,
Wilson,
Heights
and
you're
sort
of
almost
settling
for
less
and
really
the
opportunity
is
up
there.
I
think.
K
If
you
read
our
letter,
we're
actually
very
interested
in
what
your
design
review
panel
said,
which
was
that
if
Downsview
ceases
to
be
an
airport
in
the
next
couple
of
years,
you
could
do
more
density
on
Wilson
heights
of
your
for
fast
track
sites.
This
year
we
sent
letters
of
support
in
to
Wilson,
because
we
think
that
the
density
is
appropriate
at
Wilson.
Given
the
current
constraints,
we
supported
the
Vick
Park
site.
We
had
concerned
about
Merton.
We
had
concerns
about
the
warden
sites,
so
we,
you
know
this.
K
This
55
acres
that
you're
talking
about,
hopefully
in
two
or
three
weeks,
we're
hearing
that
that's
going
to
be
added
as
the
create
tio
wave2
for
housing.
Now,
like
you
guys,
have
to
do.
You
know
50
acres
a
year
at
this
kind
of
density,
to
get
to
the
targets
that
you've
set.
It
is
disruptive
density
for
year
for
your
neighborhood,
but
you
know
that's
like
like
at
Yorkdale
those
kinds
of
disruptions,
I.
I
K
I
I
City
councilors,
so
you
say
here:
people
not
parking
fair
enough.
Would
you
agree
that
many
of
the
people
who
use
parking
or
our
seniors
are
disabled?
Many
of
the
people
using
this
lot
are
parking
there
to
go
downtown
for
life-saving
treatments
at
hospitals.
Would
you
say
there's
no,
no
intrinsic
value.
You.
K
Can
have
you
can
have
all
the
wheelchair
parking
you
want
at
that
site.
I
would
quite
happily
pay
somebody
to
sit
at
the
entrance
every
day
and
track
how
many
people
are
people
who
have
those
special
needs.
Your
staff
did
a
check
on
it
and
I
believe.
The
number
was
that
more
than
40%
of
the
partners,
who
were
there
we're
actually
coming
from
outside
the
City
of
Toronto
right
so
like
who
are
we
subsidizing?
Are
we
parking,
I'm
arguing
and
she
people
from
Vaughan?
Why
am
I?
K
I
Know
you're
not
gonna.
Do
that
you're,
not
you're,
saying
you're
gonna.
Do
that
you're
not
going
to
tell
we'd,
be
you
don't
have
the
authority
to
do
that?
That's
fine,
so
I
guess
the
the
other
thing
is
you're
running
a
value
system.
Could
we
not
do
a
run
a
value
system
on
almost
anything
we
do
at
the
city,
I
mean
housing.
Affordability
is
crucial.
It's
the
number
one
issue
affecting
the
city.
I
can
I
can
say
that
and
then.
I
K
You
know
the
people
not
penguins
the
zoo,
if
I
recall
correctly,
for
like
five
or
six
hours
charges,
twelve
the
dollars
for
parking,
so
you
can
have
all
the
parking
you
want
if
you're
willing
to
charge
people
three
four
dollars
an
hour
to
park
there,
like
the
zoo,
does
I
can't
justify
twenty
four
cents
an
hour
on
eight
acres
of
land
next
to
a
transit
station
during
a
housing
crisis,
I
mean
that's
insanity
and
you're.
A
fiscal
conservative,
if
you
think
the
right
thing
to
do,
is
to
give
stuff
away
twenty
four
cents
an
hour.
K
L
Good
morning
everybody,
so
my
name
is
Alejandra
Reis,
vargas
and
I,
a
member
akre.
So
a
con
is
a
membership
organization,
a
low
and
moderate
income.
People
that
we
focus
on
social,
economic
and
justice
in
our
biggest
issue
is
housing.
Last
Saturday
Aiken
was
invited
to
the
social
planning
Toronto
budget
austerity
and
Eliam.
They
organized
a
very
nice
meeting,
the
Lawrence
Heights
community
and
one
of
the
ladies
there
who
has
two
children
in
pays
about
$1,800
know
what
thousand
six
hundred
dollars
in
rent
she
was.
L
L
Like
I
was
what
is
they
were?
I
when
I
use
I
was
making
excuse
for
what
the
government
has
made
in
these
23
years
of
austerity,
so
I
decided
I'm
not
going
to
make
more
excuses
and
icarus
can
know,
make
more
excuses
because
we
know
are
anymore
in
a
crisis
housing.
This
is
the
wild
wild
west
in
Toronto.
L
L
First,
we
need
to
get
real
rent
control
because,
let's
say
today
we
made
a
solution
for
all
housing
and
become
affordable,
but
what
we
going
to
do,
if
we
know
apply
rain,
could
reopen
control
and
we
had
the
opportunity
now
with
the
house
in
now,
because
it's
our
land,
so
we
can
apply
real
rain
control
us
because
Dodd
for
so
any
non
affordable
unit
in
these
buildings
will
had
no
rain
control.
So
this
lightly
66%
of
the
building
the
city
has
a
power.
L
To
add
on
all
these
and
be
a
leader,
for
example,
the
city
of
Burnaby
and
BC
is
using
covenants
to
require
vacancy
control
and
inclusionary
zoning
in
all
buildings
that
are
sown
for
rental.
Second,
we
need
deep
affordability.
We
change
last
year.
The
meaning
of
affordable,
so
does
mean
30%,
so
why
we
still
working
with
80%
average
market
rent
so
is
a
loss
of
time
when
we
meet
here
and
then
we
agree
on
something
and
and
then
there's
no
working
upon.
We
also
need
to
maximize
the
amount
of
units
that
are
affordable.
L
The
winning
bitch'll,
the
winning
bid
should
be
the
one
with
maximum
affordability.
A
call
also
urging
to
remember
that
there
was
a
committed
to
prioritize
no
profit
housing
providers
during
the
bid
process.
Personally,
I
work
for
an
organization
that
is
a
non-profit
and
we
had
wild
units
that
affordable
and
yes,
we
have
been
a
struggle
to
maintain
an
affordable,
but
we
are
making.
We
are
doing
it
and
actually
our
eviction.
Prevention
is
amazing
and
I.
L
Don't
know
why
we
can
only
take
in
as
a
consideration
as
a
be
the
number
one
priority
in
not
been
a
non-profit
housing
providers,
so
I
think
so.
No
proof
nonprofit
housing
providers
doing
a
marvelous
job,
so
they
should
be
the
number
one
two
we
consider
it
when
they're
going
to
do
they
bid
for
the
housing
out.
We
know
that
Toronto
can
do
great
things.
It
just
needs
to
be
a
priority.
They
concern
shall
no
VA
for
the
needs
of
developers.
Anymore.
I
know
many
people
here.
L
A
M
Morning,
Marcia
good
morning
councillors,
my
name
is
Marcia
stone,
I'm,
a
member
of
a
corn
from
the
Weston
chapter.
A
corn
is
an
association
of
community
organizations
for
reform.
Now
we
are
the
largest
grassroots
organization
of
low
and
moderate
income
people
in
Canada,
and
we
fight
for
social
and
economic
justice.
We
are
here
today
to
talk
about
affordable
housing,
specifically
the
housing
now
site
at
50,
Wilson,
Heights
Boulevard.
M
We
need
to
make
sure
we
are
using
all
the
public
lands
available
for
affordable
housing
to
build,
affordable
housing,
but
we
need
to
make
sure
it's
actually
affordable.
Average
market
rent
is
not
affordable
for
low-income
seniors
or
minimum
wage
earners
with
children.
I'm
a
senior
so
acorn
is
urging
you,
as
you
consider
this
development
to
make
sure
the
winning
bid
has
deep
affordability
and
as
many
affordable
units
as
possible.
We
also
want
to
remind
you
that
affordable
should
be
based
on
income.
M
M
The
other
big
issue
we
want
to
flag
for
you
is
rent
control
when
dub
four
got
rid
of
Brent
control
has
been
a
big
blow
to
tenants
and
a
big
hand
out
to
developers
and
landlords,
and
it's
been
a
big
blow
to
the
city's
affordable
housing
programs
like
housing.
Now
any
of
these
market
rental
units
in
this
development
will
have
no
rent
control.
How
is
it
possible
to
give
away
public
land
or
public
funds
to
a
non
rent,
control,
building
and
call
it
affordable?
M
Try
living
in
one
of
those
units
in
my
neighborhood
in
Weston,
at
22,
John
Street,
the
developer
got
a
bunch
of
city
money
to
build
an
affordable
building,
and
now
the
tenants
are
getting
a
22%
rent
increase.
It's
ridiculous,
so
acorn
want
to
flag
that
because
improvements
should
be
made.
However,
it's
good
thing:
it's
a
good
thing
to
be:
building
affordable
housing,
tenants
needed
like
myself,
Toronto
needs
it,
but
it
needs
to
be
better
I
believe,
there's
an
opportunity
with
a
lot
of
project
with
regard
to
housing
that
you
guys
are
working
on.
M
That
is
the
opportunity
and
the
time
for
all
stakeholders,
rent,
safe
city,
counselors,
the
city
staff,
the
city
inspectors.
All
of
that
they
all
have
to
be
on
board
on
the
table
and
I
would
like
to
make
one
little
one.
You
know
I
was
hoping
that
there
was
some
land
in
my
area
in
Weston,
where
some
affordable
housing
couldn't
be
built.
M
I
see
a
lot
of
condos
going
up
there
and
I
see
a
lot
of
landlords
taking
over
property
and
jacking
up
the
rent
and
people
are
having
stress
and
are
in
crisis
on
a
daily
basis.
This
is
what
people
are
living
every
day.
I
am
hoping
that
you
guys
will
take
into
consideration
the
constituents
that
you
all
serve
every
one
of
us
have
a
nice
warm
house
clean
home
to
go
home
to
there's
a
lot
of
people
that
don't
have
that
opportunity
and
with
that
I.
Thank
you.
Any
questions,
councillor
perks,
Thank.
H
Thank
you
and
thank
you
Marsha.
It's
always
good
to
be
reminded,
so
so
there
will
be
some
untold
some
information
coming
forward
about
the
issue
of
rent
control.
I.
Think
there's
some
good
news
here,
but
we
don't
have
that
in
front
of
us
today.
I'm
curious,
though,
for
your
thoughts
on
another
aspect
of
this.
H
So
this
is
all
public
land
presently
and
create
tÃo
is
about
to
do
a
deal
with
some
private
developer
and
the
result
will
be
that
on
this
public
land
we
get
488
rental
units,
but
the
developer
gets
a
thousand
units
to
make
profit
off
of.
Is
that
your
idea
of
the
best
use
of
public
land
for
affordable
housing?
My.
M
Thoughts
are
I,
understand
that
we
have
to
have
I,
guess
a
blend.
All
right,
you're
gonna
have
a
blend
of
tenants
right.
You
want
to
create
a
community,
no
I,
don't
agree
with
that
at
all.
I
am
very
upset
that
every
time
I
go
to
a
meeting
about
housing
or
something
a
senior's
building
being
built
in
our
community
again,
the
rent
is
always
the
same
thing
and
the
fact
that
these
developers
are
getting
lots
of
tax
breaks.
M
M
M
You
know:
kissing
anybody's
butt
to
get
a
place
right,
I'm
on
a
fixed
income
I'm
in
a
better
position
than
some
people,
because
I'm
living
with
my
daughter
and
my
grandson
right,
but
others
don't
have
that,
and
it
irritates
me
every
single
when
I
talk
to
people
in
C
people
that
are
living
in
the
crisis
in
the
moment,
it's
not
a
crisis
for
over
there.
It's
a
crisis
that
they're
actually
living
in
today.
So
what
do
we
do
to
help
those
people
and
I
just
think
these
contractors?
M
The
other
question
I
just
want
to
ask
a
question
with
these
developments
and
these
affordable
units
that
are
going
to
be
created.
Are
they
all
going
to
be
the
same
size
apartments?
Are
they
going
to
be
the
same
quality
apartments
for
those
that
are
affordable
and
those
that
are
non
affordable?
And
that's
why
I
say
that
definition
of
affordable
has
got
to
be
changed
before
we
continue
with
these
projects
that
you're
planning
the
future
of
in
Toronto
for
the
next
10
20
years.
M
O
Good
morning
madam
chair
councillors
and
other
members
of
the
public
who
are
here,
let
me
preface
everything
I'm
going
to
say
going
forward
by
the
fact
that
I
appreciate
that
there
is
a
housing
crisis.
I
realize
the
affordable
housing
has
to
be
built.
I
applaud
all
the
work
that's
been
done,
however.
O
In
my
opinion,
this
is
not
the
right
site.
I
am
one
of
those
people
who
lives
just
far
enough
away
from
the
station.
I
work
downtown,
so
I
take
the
subway
every
day
and
I
park
at
Wilson
station.
I
am
just
far
enough
away
that
it
does
not
work
for
me
to
take
the
TTC
to
get
to
the
station,
together
with
the
fact
that
quite
often
I'm
going
home
at
midnight
standing
on
an
empty
bus
platform
for
an
hour
waiting
for
a
bus
in
the
hopes
that
maybe
it'll
come
it's
not
safe.
O
So
for
me
to
take
the
bus
to
the
subway
station
does
No
work
and
there
are
a
great
number
of
us
who
park
in
that
station
who
are
in
the
same
boat.
So
I
guess.
My
first
point
is
and
I
think
councillor
Pasternak
brought
it
up
and
was
kind
of
blown
off.
There
is
a
very
large
empty
piece
of
property
on
it.
O
It
is
between
Wilson
Heights
and
the
Allen
running
between
Wilson
and
Sheppard.
I,
don't
know
what
that
piece
of
land
is
called
or,
but
it's
it's
not
being
used
it.
The
only
thing
I
ever
see
on
it
is
an
ambulance,
occasionally
some
cars,
a
truck
sometimes
with
some
flashing
lights
on
it.
That's
it.
Nothing
else
ever
happens
there,
except
for
once
about
ten
years
ago
the
Goodyear
blimp
landed
there,
but
that's
in
nothing
is
happening
on
that
piece
of
property.
O
When
I
went
to
one
of
the
housing
now
meetings,
we
were
told
that
well
it's
being
considered
for
use,
but
it
won't
be
able
to
be
built
on
for
three
years.
Okay,
I
understand
we're
in
a
housing
crisis,
I
get
it,
but
this
property
at
50
Wilson
isn't
going
to
be
built
on
for
at
least
three
years
either.
So
why
not?
Consider
that
other
piece
of
property?
O
Two
hundred
and
forty
four
of
them
are
available
for
the
rental
units
and
a
hundred
and
fifty
one
of
them
are
available
as
unreserved
for
people
using
the
retail
space,
the
commercial
space
visitors
and
those
of
us
who
park
right
now
at
Wilson
station.
Those
numbers
were
based
on
the
fact
that
of
those
unit,
the
unit
their
parking
units,
the
244
for
the
rental
units,
those
people
are
going
to
take
their
cars
way
during
the
day.
O
So
those
units
are
now
going
to
become
available
for
those
people
who
park
at
Wilson
station
or
want
to
be
in
that
building.
For
any
other
reason.
You're
building
this
building
or
we're
being
told
it's
being
built
next
to
Wilson
station,
so
that
those
people
don't
need
to
use
their
cars
to
get
on
the
subway
and
go
downtown.
Therefore,
those
244
rental
units
who
are
using
they're
not
using
their
cars
to
go
downtown.
Their
cars
are
sitting
there,
no
spaces
available,
so
you're
now
taking
those
spots
out
of
the
mix.
O
So,
let's
be
conservative,
let's
say:
there's
200
spots
available
for
members
of
the
public,
whether
it's
people
who
are
parking
at
Wilson
station
to
go
downtown
to
go
to
work
or
using
the
commercial
space
or
whatever
the
case
may
be.
You've
got
now
for
me
personally,
at
Wilson
station
we
lost
a
600
spot
lot.
We
now
have
this
lot,
which
I
believe
is
800
or
a
thousand
spots.
That's
going
to
disappear,
so
you've
now
gotten
1600
spots,
which
are
gone
and
you're
expecting
those
people
to
park
in
maybe
200
spots
that
are
available.
O
O
We're
told
that
maybe
there's
consideration
of
building
parking
there,
but
then
I've
heard
that
that's
also
being
considered
surplus
land
and
is
going
to
be
sold
off
for
a
condo.
So
again
no
parking
available
more
people
coming
in
it's
just
not
conducive
and
I
understand.
The
folks
from
housing
now
said
that
the
parking
price
is
very
low.
A
O
A
A
E
P
My
name
is
Sean
Galbraith
I'm,
a
planner,
nothing
involved
with
the
project,
but
I
wanted
to
say
that
I
fully
support
the
revised
design
within
the
restrictions
that
have
been
sort
of
imposed
on
the
project
by
that
Downsview,
airport
and
I.
Think
there
are
some
servicing
constraints,
I
think
staff
has
done
a
really
good
job,
working
with
create
geo
to
maximize
the
amount
of
units
that
can
really
be
achieved
on
the
property.
P
With
regards
to
parking
I
agree,
there
is
a
large
piece
of
land
to
the
north.
That
would
be
a
great
location
for
a
surface
parking
lot
as
an
interim
use,
and
you
can
run
an
airport
style
shuttle
bus
back
and
forth
from
the
subway
station
to
get
commuters
from
Vaughn
access
to
to
Wilson
station,
and
we
should
be
building
housing
next
to
subways,
we
shouldn't
be
building
parking,
lots.
That's.
C
Didn't
want
to
ram
the
table
over
again,
so
I
have
a
question
for
y'all.
In
this
report
it
doesn't
say
how
many
of
those
housing
units
are
gonna,
be
wheelchair
accessible
because
not
everyone
who's
disabled
is
poor,
but
the
other
thing
is
I,
hear
the
car
drivers
complaining
and
saying:
oh,
they
wait
an
hour
on
the
bus
platform.
C
C
It
must
be
nice
to
be
able
to
use
Wilson
station
gee
if
only
it
was
accessible,
if
only
so,
why
aren't
we
building
a
parking
structure
at
Sheppard,
West
or
at
other
subway
stations
on
the
edges,
like
GO
Transit,
build
an
actual
parking
stretcher,
that's
four
or
five
storeys
high,
that
has
wheelchair
accessibility
that
has
good
elevators.
Why
don't
you
take
a
page
from
GO
Transit?
The
way
they've
had
to
do
it?
There's
one
in
Burlington.
C
You
can
study,
there's
one
in
Whitby,
Ajax
I,
don't
know
if
wash
WA
has
one
yet,
but
here's
the
thing.
Why
don't
you
follow
Metro
Lynx's
idea
build
a
parking
structure
for
these
car
drivers
that
see
fit
to
drive
their
cars
charge
the
Mahna
Mahna
fee
and
make
them
pay
for
once
make
car
drivers
paid
for
easy
for
their
access
for
their
dependents
on
their
vehicle
for
their
I'm,
not
gonna,
say
this
nasty
but
for
their
laziness.
C
C
You
know
how
I
have
to
get
to
the
Costco
Lawrence
west
to
a
bus
to
Dufferin
up
different
if
I
want
to
use
Wilson
station
that
change
buses,
I've
had
to
drive
on
the
roadways
of
Wilson
station
up
and
down
the
ramps
up
and
down
the
curb
cuts
and
by
the
way,
garbage
loading
zone
for
the
wit
and
accessibility
from
what
TTC
has
said.
So
why
don't
you
and
put
a
parking
structure
there?
You
know.
C
None
of
this
report
talks
about
accessibility
of
these
units,
the
ease
of
access
to
Wilson
station,
the
only
bus
route
that
serves
Wilson
station
that
goes
to
an
accessible
subway,
Sheppard
West.
It
barely
runs
and
it's
it
take
40
minutes
they
get
from
the
station
the
station.
Imagine
an
able-bodied
person
having
to
do
that.
There'd
be
an
up
for
thank.
A
A
J
Name
is
Oleg:
I
live
in
Ward
9
right
on
Kiel
and
Wilson
I
pretend
to
a
city
planning
meeting
in
November
back
when
the
outlined
the
York
Yorkdale
mall
transit
plan,
and
they
had
this
transit
survey
for
the
area.
So
this
shows
the
volume
to
capacity
ratio
of
of
the
routes
in
that
area.
So
here
you
can
see
the
Allen
Road
and
401
intersection,
and
the
Wilson
station
is
right
around
here.
So
you
can.
J
Actually,
if
you
look
at
it
closer,
you
can
see
Route
96,
which
is
the
primary
route
that
serves
the
commuters
in
that
area.
Going
from
west
of
Kiel
is
red.
Red
means
that
it's
at
a
hundred
volume
to
capacity,
and
then
this
is
the
PM
rush
hour.
So
I
can
also
speak
from
experience
that,
during
the
p.m.
rush
hour
that
bus
route
is
packed
at
this
point,
I
carpool
to
that
Wilson
parking
lot
to
avoid
that
that
rot
that
those
packed
buses
both
to
and
from
so
I
I'm
perfectly
willing
to
pay
whatever
price.
J
It's
on
that
lot,
let
her
go
to
the
city
coffers.
Well,
until
the
that
this
transit
over
capacity
is
is
resolved.
It's
it's
a
little
and
reasonable
for
the
the
residents
in
that
area
to
continue
to
suffer
this,
this
this
transit
issue
and,
as
you
can
see
this,
this
area
see,
is
growing
so
anything
in
yellow
and
light
green,
and
then
this
is
this:
has
the
old
districts
but.
J
But
you
can,
you
can
see
the
saw
Ward
9
area,
it's
it's
growing
at
still
the
same
to
5
percent
and
some
this
light
green
area
is
that
10%.
So
that
can
side
the
transit
issue.
It's
gonna
continue
to
get
worse
unless
there's
more
capacity
or
some
other
plan
for
our
for
this
and
to
make
matters
worse,
this
area
is
also
underprivileged.
You
can
see
the
dark
red
wet
on
the
west
side
is
the
is
the
low-income
population
of
Toronto.
A
Any
questions
seeing
none
thank
you
for
joining
us
today.
Anyone
else
so
I
would
like
to
speak
on
this
item.
Okay,
I
think
this.
Is
it
now
questions
of
staff
outside
councillors,
questions
of
staff
elsewhere,
Pasternak
thank.
I
You
thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thanks
to
staff
for
their
hard
work
on
the
file.
So
we
have
488
affordable
units
coming
in
250,
Wilson
Heights,
which
is
great
news
for
our
neighborhood.
But
who
does
the
intake?
Does
the
screening
who
does
the
intake?
Who
does
the
testing
of
eligibility
when,
when
does
that
start
or
has
it
started
already?
As
my
office
is
getting
calls
I
just.
I
I
D
So
the
applicant
for
under
the
RFP,
we're
still
negotiating
with
the
applicant,
and
so
until
that
concludes
we
won't
know
who
the
partner
is.
The
partner
will
be
responsible
for
working
with
our
team
at
the
city
to
ensure
that
there
is
equitable
access
for
those
people
who
need
affordable
housing
and
all
of
those
arrangements
will.
I
B
I
B
I
E
I
You
so
on
page
29
of
the
report.
I
think
this
is
in
response
to
a
council
motion
to
try
and
accommodate
some
commuter
parking
on
site
who
manages
these
numbers,
who
who's
going
to
manage
the
shared
parking,
any
fees
related
to
it?
Who
has
access
to
it?
Is
it?
Is
it
a
paying
display
system?
Is
it
a
monthly
pass
system?
Is
this?
Is
this
something
that
the
successful
applicant
will
take
on
through.
R
Through
the
chair,
the
proponent
that
ultimately
is
engaged
through
great
Tio's
procurement
will
be
engaged
in
looking
at
all
of
those
options
that
you
just
identified.
So
those
are
part
of
the
business
transaction
that
will
be
developed
as
the
as
the
proposal
advances
through
the
resolution
of
all
the
business
terms
and
I.
Think
all
those
options,
including
partnership
with
the
Toronto
parking
authority
and
other
options,
likely
are
on
the
table
as
we
sort
out
how
those
shared
parking
arrangements
will
work
to
maximize.
I
A
E
R
Don't
believe
through
the
chair,
I
don't
believe
there
is
an
issue
of
compensation
was
more
an
issue
around
resolution
of
their
operational
requirements.
We,
as
you
may
know,
from
from
reviewing
the
report.
We
were
able
to
come
to
a
conclusion
with
the
TDC
that
move
the
the
roadway
around
a
little
bit
so
that
we
could
ensure
good
performance
for
the
TDT
services
well,
at
the
same
time,
adding
in
extra
density
for
affordable
housing
purposes.
So.
E
Fantastic
thank
you
and
with
respect
to
the
the
number
of
affordable
units
there,
there
seems
to
be
a
discrepancy.
I'm
gonna
jump
ahead
a
little
bit
and
I
recognize
and
I
really
I
want
to
do
this
because
it
compares
the
two
sites
side-by-side
in
item
number
2a,
705,
warden,
there's
500
new
residential
units
that
are
being
proposed
and
250
of
them
will
be
affordable,
rental,
that's
80%
of
the
AMR
and
then
50%,
and
that
means
and
then
50%
below
market
I'm,
just
curious
to
know.
E
I
R
The
chair,
the
program
target
that
council
directed
staff
to
achieve
a
50
Wilson
Heights,
was
was
a
provision
of
a
third
market
owner,
a
third
rental
and
third
affordable
rental
on
the
site
through
the
development
of
the
zoning
bylaw.
As
the
process
extended,
staff
were
able
to
find
ways
to
maximize
the
utility
of
the
total
number
of
units
provided
to
it
to
increase
the
total
number
of
affordable
units
to
500,
which
again
is
part
of
a
third
of
the
overall.
R
There
is
an
intent
to
provide
a
range
of
affordability
both
for
at
about
forty
percent
of
the
total
CMHC
average
market
rent
up
to
a
hundred
percent
of
the
CMHC
average
market
rent
through
the
totally
affordable
housing,
affordable
rental
unit
target,
which
does
meet
the
the
target
identified
by
council
and
directed
staff.
To
achieve
so.
E
For
that
rationale,
the
the
more
units
that
are
being
constructed
on
the
fifty
Wilson
site
and
the
705
word
inside
the
the
numbers
seem
to
be
flipped
around
so
you're.
There's
more
density
going
on
250
Wilson,
but
there's
less
affordable
units
requirement
for
build-out.
It
just
seems
rather
strange.
Should
you
be
trying
to
achieve
at
least
comparable.
R
Again
this
this
was
the
intent
of
the
council
target
on
the
housing
net
program
to
achieve
this
mix
of
affordability
units
and
and
to
ensure
that
affordability
is
brought
forward.
There
is
a
marketing
component
that
is
required
at
50,
Wilson,
Heights
I
would
just
add.
There
are
going
to
be
elements
where
the
sites
are
different,
they're
different,
certainly
in
land
value
and
across
the
city,
as
everyone
is
aware.
R
So
the
way
the
ultimate
proposition
plays
out
through
reviewing
the
local
context
of
planning
policy
and
looking
at
as
create
tÃo,
has
led
the
the
market
offering
you
know,
you're,
seeing
the
coming
together
of
those
two
streams,
we're
presenting
the
zoning
to
you
and
the
create
teo
board
has
been
considering
them
the
business
terms
and
together.
You
know,
that's
the
way
that
we're
producing
these
outcomes
and.
R
The
chair
is
certainly
the
aging-in-place
principle
is,
is
something
that
would
be
smart
to
to
incorporate
as
much
as
possible.
We
have
included
in
the
business
terms,
ten
percent
accessible,
which
is
a
CMHC
standard
which
exceeds
the
building
code
standard
that
was
in
relation
to
get
to
securing
funding.
I.
Believe
that's
so
you
know
we.
We
continue
as
a
matter
of
course,
to
drive
that
agenda
higher
and
higher
as
much
as
we
can
program
eclis
this
projects.
As
you
know,
in
flight,
it's
been
considered
by
create
a
board
I
think
going
forward.
I
This
has
not
been
an
easy
road,
but
I
wanted
to
thank
Krejci.
Oh
and
our
planning
staff,
of
course
meritorious
for
the
work
and
the
initiative
and
affordability,
especially
in
the
housing
arena,
is
perhaps
the
biggest
social
challenge
that
the
city
is
facing.
I
have
a
staff
member
whose
sole
responsibility
is
to
do
to
answer
and
meet
with
many
of
the
people.
Looking
looking
for
housing
in
our
social
housing
properties,
we
meet
with
them.
We
look
over
their
paperwork.
I
You've
heard
it
a
few
times
and
certainly
you've
heard
it
over
the
last
year,
I
think
in
a
certain
kind
of
way,
we're
settling
for
less
there's,
there's
a
myth
that
I
support
parking
over
over
affordable
housing-
that
is
just
not
true,
I,
can
tell
you
that
many
people
rely
on
the
other
commuter
parking.
These
are
our
best
TTC
customers.
We
do
not
want
them
driving
downtown.
I
We
want
to
disable
to
to
be
able
to
park
and
get
on
the
subway,
those
seeking
medical
treatments
at
downtown
hospitals
to
be
able
to
have
a
place
to
park,
and
so
those
are
working,
families
also
to
be
able
to
part.
Are
we
not
charging
enough?
Well
we're,
probably
not
charging
enough,
but
it
remains
an
important
aspect
of
life
in
the
intercept.
The
suburbs
were
the
distances
between
someone's
home
and
higher
level.
Transit
is
long
and
and
hard.
I
So
it's
been
my
position
when
I,
when
I
found
out
about
this
site
is
being
identified,
that
it
shouldn't
be
going
here.
We
should
be
looking
at
the
55
acre
vacant
site
with
nothing
on
it
other
than
a
transit
station
and
just
to
the
east
of
it
is
a
fire
station
and
a
Buddhist
temple
and
there's
2,000
condos
just
to
the
north
of
it.
That's
really
where
the
future
was
and
is,
and
we
spent
a
year
on
this
site
when
we
could
have
been
working
on
that
and
I
realized.
I
I
Our
office
continues
to
have
concerns
about
the
road
configuration
which
is
meant
to
centralize
the
park
within
the
community.
This
this
is
a
major
bus
terminal,
the
Wilson
station.
It's
it's
not
a
timid
station
five
bus
routes
come
will
be
coming
through
the
road
configuration
adjacent
to
the
park
and
across
the
buildings
to
get
to
the
park
you
would
have
to
cross
a
roadway,
narrow,
roadway
with
five
bus
routes
and
some
are
in
the
vicinity
of
7800
cars
coming
in
and
out
every
day,
including
all
all
users,
the
the
the
I.
I
I
So
at
the
bottom
of
the
bottom
line,
I
guess
we
would
ask
staff
to
take.
Take
a
look
at
this
concept.
Take
a
look
at
this
idea
because
they
won't
be
there
when
the
when
the
complaints
started
coming
in
and
these
interior
roadways
in
in
developments
always
create
not
just
enormous
risk
for
the
for
the
residents.
I
H
I
just
I
just
wanted
to
climb
onto
my
hobby
horse
for
a
minute-
and
you
know
remind
everybody
how
terrible
the
housing
now
program
is
it
isn't
yep
it
is.
It
is
an
utter
shame
that
council
gave
authority
to
make
the
final
deal
to
create
tea
Oh.
What
will
happen
in
this
deal
is
we
will
give
away
two-thirds
of
the
public
land
here
to
private
developers
and
we
will
retain
the
one-third
of
the
land
that
is
generating
the
least
revenue.
H
In
other
words,
we
are
taking
a
piece
of
public
land
holding
on
to
a
part
that
won't
pay
for
itself
and
taking
2/3
of
it
and
turning
it
into
financial
profit
for
a
condominium
developer,
and
that
money
will
leave
the
city
forever
and
just
finance
some
development
somewhere
else
to
generate
still
more
profit.
It
is.
H
It
is
just
astonishing
that,
beyond
that,
we
are
going
to
be
providing
generous
subsidies
in
the
form
of
forgone
revenues
and
development
charges,
and
so
on,
to
pay
the
developer
for
the
privilege
of
extracting
public
wealth
out
of
our
city
I,
you
know
any
any.
It
is
just
amazing
to
me
that
the
City
of
Toronto
continues
to
behave
as
the
only
person
in
the
core
corporation
in
the
world,
who
can't
figure
out
how
to
make
money
off
land
in
the
City
of
Toronto
by
providing
mixed
housing
and
keeping
it
public
ownership.
E
Thank
you
very
much
and
I
do
have
a
motion.
I
would
like
to
put
onto
the
screen
recognizing
that
this
report
is
as
a
zoning
and
planning
or
a
port.
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
ask
the
chief
planner
in
the
executive
director
of
City
Planning
to
work
with
the
CEO
of
creo
to
explore,
including
expanding
the
percentage
of
units
at
50,
Wilson,
Boulevard
Heights
Boulevard
to
actually
try
to
exceed
the
10%
requirement
for
those
units
that
are
accessible
and
to
do
that
through
the
site
plan
process.
E
So
this
does
not
interfere
at
all
with
what
is
before
us.
It
actually
just
directs
the
chief
planner
to
to
try
and
see
if
we
can
get
a
few
more
units
beyond
the
minimum
10%
requirement
of
Canada
now
Mortgage,
Housing,
Corporation
and
and
I
say
this
largely
because
I
think
that
we
we're
we're
gonna
miss
we're
gonna
miss
the
opportunity
to
build
for
it.
A
population
is
gonna,
be
aging
and
I.
Think
we're
going
to
be
hearing
more
and
more
about
the
need
to
build
universally
accessible
housing
so
that
everyone
can
live
there.
E
I've
got
aging
parents
and,
at
this
point
in
time,
I
will
not
be
able
to
take
any
of
my
parents
into
my
home
because
my
home
is
not
accessible
at
one
point
in
time.
If
I
have
to,
we
would
have
to
do
significant
modifications
and,
at
the
same
time,
it's
a
lot
cheaper
if
we
actually
build
it
into
the
costs
of
new
construction
in
the
design.
E
At
the
beginning
stage
and
statistics
have
shown
in
studies
have
shown
is
that
that
cost
is
actually
rather
nominal
point
zero,
zero,
eight
percent
so
well
below
1%,
and
we
can
make
the
unit
universally
accessible,
which
means
that
those
with
disabilities,
those
who
have
mobility
impairments,
can
live
with
their
family
members.
If
they
do
not
right
now,
it
doesn't
work
that
way
so
I
wanted
I
won't
speak
to
to
the
housing
now
report
I
think
that
councillor
Crowley
said
everything.
I
I
was
feeling
in
my
heart.
E
E
I
wanted
to
speak
very
quickly
around
this,
their
piece
around
the
TT
seed
lands
and
in
the
conversation
that
transpired
with
the
with
City
Planning
and
Korea
T,
oh
and
I,
just
want
to
say
how
far
perhaps
we've
come
as
a
city
to
actually
work
together
with
the
agencies
that
we
own
are
our
100%
shareholders
of
it
has
been
phenomenal
in
the
past.
The
resistance
of
TTC
willing
to
step
up
and
to
be
a
city
builder,
with
an
integrated
approach
to
planning
and
other
land-use
development
needs
and
I'll.
E
E
You
may
have
stopped
in
it
and
it
has
a
very
long
circular
bus
route,
it's
just
a
bus,
loop
and
oftentimes
that
bus
route
is
is
literally
parking
for
TTC
staff
with
their
private
presenter
vehicles,
or
sometimes
there
are
TTC
buses
that
are
parked
there
waiting
to
to
go
out
and
for
for
the
time
that
I
was
councilor
of
that
community.
For
about
eight
years
and
prior
to
my
my
efforts,
councillor
read
before
me
had
tried
to
actually
shrink
that
bus
loop
and
turn
that
land
into
parkland,
so
we
can
expand
budge.
E
Sugarman
Park
I
was
asked
for
money
like
just
straight
out
cash
to
actually
transfer
that
from
TTC
charge
land
to
park
charge,
land
I
was
asked
to
purchase
a
bus
on
behalf
of
the
TTC
so
that
it
could
be
so.
We
could
supplement
the
TC
TT
DC,
so
they
can
maintain
their
level
of
service.
It
was
just
phenomenal.
The
things
that
we
were
asked
for
as
a
local
community
and
all
we
want
to
do
is
actually
move
it
to
what
we
thought
was
just
a
civic
use
that
was
complementary
to
what
was
already
there.
E
This
TTC
subway
station
and
a
park
to
the
south
side.
We
would
just
want
to
reconfigure
the
real
estate
and
we
were,
of
course,
willing
to
pay
for
the
park
renovations.
But
I
can
tell
you
that
if
you
did
not
have
to
pay
to
to
move
that
line,
that
that
line
of
where
the
TTC
buses
were
parked
and
they
did
not
ask
you
to
pay
for
an
additional
bus.
I'm
gonna
see
that
as
Civic
progress
as
different
agencies
and
departments
of
the
city
of
trying
working
collaboratively
to
a
better
urban
and
civic
outcome.
E
So
so
good
on
you
for
that,
and
then
finally,
I
just
want
to
with
respect
to
councillor
Pasternak's
a
recommendation.
I
think
that
there
is
probably
some
good
thought,
as
the
local
councils
are
trying
to
ensure
that
there's
there's
more
access
around
Road
accessibility
in
the
road
safety
for
his
community.
But
I
actually
wonder
if
actually
it
is
the
the
rice
court
right
course
of
thinking.
We
can
simply
be
because
by
putting
the
bus
routes
so
much
further
away
from
where
the
population
density
is
it
actually
to
me,
doesn't
make
sense.
E
So
the
community
will
have
too
much
work
walk
much
further
to
to
where
from
where
they
live,
to,
where
they
would
need
to
board
and
deport
the
TTC
bus.
So
that
doesn't
make
sense
to
me
so
I'm
gonna
leave
that
at
that
I'm
sure
he's
gonna
take
another
charge
of
it
at
council,
and
hopefully
we
can
have.
The
members
support
this
motion
before
them.
Thank.
A
You
very
much
Thank
You
councillor
any
other
speakers.
No
seeing
none
I
will
say
a
few
words
and
I
hope
to
not
disappoint
anybody
but
affordable
housing.
It's
not
a
mushroom
like
pops
up
out
of
the
ground
for
free,
so
it
costs
money
and
what
the
housing
now
program
actually
is
doing
is
extracting
the
value
of
that
land
to
create
the
affordable
housing
on
that
land.
A
So
there
was
a
fundamental
shift
that
happened
with
the
city
of
Toronto,
where,
a
few
years
ago
we
were
actually
getting
this
land
going
it
out
there
and
sending
it
selling
it
and
getting
it
as
a
dividend.
The
money
for
the
many
city
priorities
that
we
had
what
happened
now
is
that
housing
now
said
no.
We
are
actually
going
to
maintain
ownership
of
that
land
and
we're
going
to
extract
the
value
of
that
land
to
create
the
affordable
housing
units.
So
that's
how
we're
able
to
create
the
one?
A
Third,
in
some
cases,
one
half
of
affordable
housing
units,
that's
how
we're
building
affordable
housing
because
there's
a
cost
to
build
those
units-
and
that
comes
from
the
partnership
that
the
city
is
creating
with
that
developer.
And
that
is
why
sometimes,
like
our
staff
told
us,
depending
on
land
value,
the
scenarios
are
different
in
different
parts
of
the
city.
Depending
on
what
we
want
in
some
areas,
we
want
a
bit
more
deeper,
affordable
housing
in
other
areas.
You
know
we.
A
We
believe
that
you
know
getting
just
a
60%
or
80%
would
be
enough
for
that
neighborhood.
So
all
this
is
put
into
the
performance,
but
the
what
counsel
has
asked
staff
to
do
was
to
use
this
land
and
create
the
highest
amount
of
affordable
housing
for
the
deepest
affordability
for
the
longest
period
of
time
and
with
good
planning,
fundamentals
and
I.
A
Think
that's
what
we
have
on
this
site
is
that
planning
went
away
and
staff
when
went
away
and
was
able
to
put
in
front
of
us
a
plan
that
makes
sense
that
is
close
to
transit.
That
is
going
to
be
creating
rental
and
affordable
rental,
very
close
to
transit.
That
we,
we
pushed
to
make
sure
that
we
are
having
as
much
density
as
as
as
it
makes
good
planning
sense
in
the
community,
building
and
city
building
sense,
and
we
took
the
value
of
that
land
to
create
the
highest
affordable,
the
highest
amount
of
affordable
housing.
A
So
thank
you
staff
for
for
all
your
work
and
let's
hope
that
this
will
be
the
first
I
wouldn't
say:
11
I
would
say
of
many
more
sites
to
come.
So
thank
you.
Okay.
So
seeing
that,
can
we
have
a
vote
on
council
wrong
times?
Motion
all
those
in
favor
that
carries
and
item
as
amended
all
those
in
favor
recorded
vote,
yep.
H
A
A
We're
in
item
13
point
2,
I'm
gonna,
ask
very
quickly
a
question
of
staff,
because
there
is
a
very
a
possibility
that
I'll
be
moving
in
a
motion
to
send
this
back
staff
and
I
need
to
advise
the
public
because
there
has
speaking
implications.
So
I
would
just
like
to
have
staff
answer
me
if
you
believe
that
there
is
the
opportunity
to
have
some
redesign
done
and
to
increase
the
density
on
this
site.
R
Through
the
chair,
I,
don't
I
would
say
that
it's
not
unusual
as
projects
advance
through
design
development,
detailed
design
development,
especially
and
in
consideration
of
bringing
the
projects
forward
through
this
procurement
process
that
things
evolve
or
things
adjust.
If
it's,
the
desire
of
the
committee
to
have
us,
look
at
increasing
the
density
on
the
site
to
produce,
especially
to
produce
more
affordable
in
the
mix,
we
believe
an
initial
look
at
that.
R
We
believe
there
are
some
opportunities
to
do
that.
We,
as
you
know,
through
reading
the
report,
evaluated
the
context
site
the
applicable
policies
in
the
in
the
warden
woods
secondary
plan,
which
is
a
secondary
plan
that
dates
back
some
15
years.
So
we're
we're
if
it's
the
desired
committee,
to
adjourn
the
matter
and
have
us
be
instructed
to
go
back
and
look
again.
I
wouldn't
say
that
we
would
be
looking
at
significant
modifications,
but
there
may
be
room
to
add
some
density
and
we'll
take
a
good
look
at
that.
R
I
would
caution
the
committee's
expectations
around
it,
because
there
are
sensitivities
on
the
site
with
respect
to
infrastructure.
This
was
these.
Looking
back
were
former
industrial
lands
many
many
years
ago
the
subdivision
in
the
area
got
produced
with
new
servicing
entirely
new
servicing.
So
there
are
sensitivities
around
functional
servicing.
Not
it's
not
just
adult
form
puzzle
that
needs
to
be
resolved.
R
We
need
to
look
carefully
at
that,
so
we
would
need
a
bit
more
time
and
certainly
we
would
anticipate
having
going
back
going
back
and
having
a
conversation
with
the
community
as
well,
because
we've
been
working
with
the
community
through
the
current
design.
So
taking
all
that
into
account,
if
it's
a
zyre
the
committee
to
adjourn
the
matter
and
have
us
come
back,
we
happy
to
do
that.
So.
A
So
I
will
be
moving
a
motion
to
adjourn
this
to
June,
so
that
staff
will
have
the
opportunity
to
do
this
work
and
come
back
to
us
in
June.
The
implications
to
the
public
is.
If
you
would
like
to
speak
on
this
item
today,
you
will
not
be
able
to
speak
when
it
comes
back
in
June.
Unless
there's
substantial
changes
to
the
project,
so
you
will
have
an
opportunity
last.
A
K
Okay,
counsellors,
Mark
Richardson
from
housing,
no
tio
com,
Alexei,
Guerra
and
Naima
blonder,
who
are
also
with
us
today,
really
talking
about
some
of
the
same
stuff.
We
talked
about
at
Wharton
but
Wilson
with
regards
to
the
warden
site.
So
I
won't
repeat
these
early
slides
talking
about
the
warden
site.
It
is
currently
a
7.1
acres,
surface
parking
lot
next
to
a
subway
line
that
we're
about
to
spend
6
billion
dollars,
plus
extending
deeper
into
Scarborough.
It
is
lazy
land
and
it's
actually
the
parking.
There
is
even
cheaper
than
the
parking
at
Wilson
right.
K
K
This
is
what
that
parking
lot
looks
like
Friday
at
lunchtime
in
the
middle
of
the
summer,
like
we're
not
protecting
a
an
important
piece
of
real
estate.
This
is
lazy,
lazy
land
that
needs
to
be
put
to
a
higher
and
better
use
in
the
middle
of
a
housing
crisis.
The
original
preliminary
development
concept
for
7.1
acres
was
450
units.
K
Your
planning
staff
had
225,
affordable
rental
units.
I'll
draw
your
attention
to
this
tiny
little
TTC
admin,
building
that
they're
putting
an
apartment,
zoned
land,
it's
a
two-story,
TTC
admin
building
the
TTC
say
that
they
need
to
have
this
site
next
to
the
tracks.
Well,
they
go
to
South
parking
lot.
They
could
quite
happily
put
that
on.
This
is
one
of
the
areas
we'd
really
like
you
to
push
back
on.
K
When
we
came
back
in
the
fall,
it
was
at
466
residential
units
with
233,
affordable
still
with
a
two-story
TTC
admin
building
Alexi
helped
us
work
on
an
alternative
proposal.
We
submitted
to
create
teo
last
summer,
1,500
residential
units
on
that
site,
500
market
ownership,
500
rental,
500,
affordable
rental.
We
included
space
with
the
TTC
office,
building,
putting
it
down
next
to
the
station.
We
also
made
sure
that
it
worked
with
all
of
the
constraints
that
we
could
find
within
the
historical
surveys
of
that
site.
K
So
this
is
where
you
work
same
sort
of
scale
as
we
had
for
worden,
but
for
Wilson
a
little
while
ago,
you
started
out
at
466
unit
of
460
units.
You
got
up
currently
to
508
units.
You
added
you
know
a
small
number
of
units
to
the
mix.
It's
changed
right
now,
you're
at
508.
You
were
at
466
in
the
fall,
but
what
are
we
doing?
Just
a
few
blocks
away
on
Eglinton
right,
Eglinton
crosstown,
not
on
a
subway.
K
Even
look
at
Vic
Park,
a
big
park
which
you
guys
approved
a
few
months
ago,
that
site
is
only
two
acres
at
the
station.
It's
also
in
councilor
Crawford's
award,
as
is
this
one.
You
put
508
residential
units
on
two
acres
there,
but
you're
only
putting
the
same
number
of
units
on
seven
acres.
When
we
talk
about
this
worden
site
staff
may
tell
you
that
the
site
isn't
fully
available
because
of
constraints
from
the
conservation
authority.
K
K
You
know,
Alexi
is
a
planner
and
Amma's
a
planner
and
an
architect
we're
doing
this
work
pro
bono
talking
about
the
kinds
of
scale
that
are
possible,
I,
don't
think
anything
Alexi
you
can
maybe
speak
to
it.
Is
there
anything
there
that
that
is
outside
of
what
a
regular
organization
would
ask
for
planning
on
that
site?
No.
B
So
we
so
what
we
did
to
model
the
site.
We
just
use
the
existing
information
that
was
available
through
the
application.
That
was
done.
So
we
used
their
survey
existing
surveys,
so
we
knew
where
the
easements
were,
and
the
TRC
a
setback
and
so
on
and
I
understood.
There's
there's
the
existing
layout
of
Park
south
of
the
south
of
the
community
center
just
there
as
well.
K
What
we
did
do
is
pretty
much
ignore
the
warden
woods
master
plan
of
2005
because
it
was
written
in
2005
and
isn't
fit
for
purpose
anymore.
It
was
a
time
before
you
were
gonna
spend
six
billion
dollars
extending
a
subway
through
Scarborough.
If
we're
going
to
extend
the
subway,
the
quid
pro
quo
is
going
to
be
density
on
those
subway
station
parking
lots
at
Kennedy
at
all
the
sites
as
we
move
along.
This
is
just
the
math
if
I
can
make
affordable
housing
work
in
22.
Thank.
J
You
Mike
and
I
appreciate
your
deputation
just
a
couple
things
on
the
plan
that
you
have
suggested.
Did
you
take
into
consideration?
We
have
a
community
center,
that's
just
north
of
there
very
underutilized
community
center,
primarily
because
people
can't
get
to
it
because
of
parking.
So
part
of
the
plan
was
to
actually
look
at.
How
do
we
increase
parking
spaces
to
enable
people
from
the
community
to
be
able
to
utilize
that
so
and
I'm
noticing
your
plan
does
that?
Does
that
include
the
use
of
the
community
center
for
extra
parking
utilization
of
that?
Well.
B
So
in
terms
of
our
plans
that
we
I
mean
because
these
are
just
preliminary
massing,
schemas
just
trying
to
test
out
they'll
form
in
their
impacts
on
the
surrounding.
We
didn't
look
into
too
much
detail
as
to
the
parking.
But
the
idea
was
to
have
a
minimal
impact
on
to
the
community
centers
parking
and
then
the
possibility
to
have
on
street
parking
and
also
using
the
one
level
or
two
levels
of
underground
parking
that
will
be
provided
for
these
buildings
because
of
their
short
distance
watch.
The
Comenius
with.
J
Regard
to
your
justification
for
the
1,500
units,
you
haven't
really
taken
that
into
consideration
it's
kind
of
there,
but
you
haven't
had
more
detail
on
on
that,
because
that
that
would
have
one
of
the
considerations
when
we're
looking
at
this
community
center
is
it's
underutilized,
and
why
do
we
have
a
community
center,
that's
underutilized
and
bringing
the
development
and
there?
So
you
just
want
to
make
sure
it.
J
Recognizing
that
when
the
community
center
was
built,
it's
built
for
an
entire
community,
not
just
a
local,
so
we
needed
to
now
it's
one
of
the
justification
with
regard
and
your
you
have
a
large
massing
in
front
in
the
middle
of
section
that
the
housing
now
has
suggested
for
parkland
you're,
suggesting
that
we
don't
we
remove
that
parkland
and
in
an
area
that's
very
deficient
of
park
space,
believe
it
or
not,
and
you
wouldn't
ask
that
with
buildings.
Did
you
look
at
the
consideration
of
yes.
J
And
that's
a
great
video
that
I'm
watching,
but
I've
actually
been
there.
So
if
you
saw
that
number
one
you're
looking
at
usable,
parkland,
so
I
think
what
the
proposal
at
this
point
is
to
have
parkland
that
can
be
programmed
and
be
usable
through
our
Parks
Department.
The
land
just
south
of
there,
in
fact,
is,
is
all
most
of
its
TRC
a
regulated
land.
It's
actually
sloped
and
it's
not
even
pro
it's
nice
green
space,
but
it's
actually
not
usable
with
regard
to
providing
the
kind
of
parkland
program
of
parkland,
a
community
would
need.
K
We're
you
know
we're
not
expecting
you
guys
to
order
the
blueprints
from
us
on
this.
We're
we're
here
to
tell
you
that
there's
a
finite
amount
of
this
lazy
land
available
in
the
city
and
if
you're
spending
billions
of
dollars
on
new
transit
infrastructure,
cheap
surface
parking,
lots
need
to
be
radically
up
sized.
No!
No.
K
What
does
that
I
agree
with
you
on
we're
just
gonna,
you
know
I,
think
I.
We
were
at
your
meeting
on
the
night
of
the
Raptors
final
and
you
had
200
angry
people
in
your
community
center.
We
understand
the
local
pressures
there
are
are
very
difficult
and
we're
putting
this
out
there
as
an
option
to
help
the
conversations
lead
towards
more
housing
and
and.
J
K
A
Q
Hi,
my
name's
Susan
Langdon
I've,
lived
in
the
subdivision
immediately
north
of
the
subject:
property
seven
to
five
warden
for
12
years,
since
it
was
established
in
2008
I'm.
Also,
a
member
of
the
local
Advisory
Committee
for
the
Golden
Mile
secondary
plan
and
I
have
many
concerns
around
the
proposed
development.
Q
Since
the
ward
has
been
expanded,
there
is
an
additional
supermarket
now
in
the
end,
the
ward,
but
it's
so
south
and
east
of
where
I
live.
It's
it's
irrelevant
to
my
situation,
I'm
concerned
that
this
particular
supermarket,
which
is
a
metro.
It's
not
within
walking
distance.
It's
over
two
and
a
half
kilometers
away,
which
is
a
struggle
when
you're
carrying
a
load
of
groceries
and
there's
no
direct
route
by
TTC.
J
Susan
for
coming
and
I
appreciate
your
your
time
and
effort
in
number
one
comment
here
and
also
being
part
of
the
community
consultation
I
think
it's
been
a
valuable
part
of
the
process.
With
regard
to
the
super.
Now
you
need
those
comments
had
come
up
in
the
public
deputations
or
the
public
consultation
components
and
I
know
they're
the
referenced
in
in
in
the
in
the
proposal.
Q
For
the
same
reason,
they're
gonna
say
we
want
a
large
parking
lot
and
that's
not
apparent
here
and
if
they're,
using
the
same
market
research
that
shows
people
will
prefer
not
to
travel
by
foot
I'm
one
of
the
few
in
the
neighborhood,
but
that
does
then
there
you're
just
not
going
to
track
them.
It's
been
twelve
years
that
we've
been
trying
to
attract
the
grocery
store
and
we
only
have
one
grocery
store
for
our
area.
It's
it's!
J
You
do
recognize
with
regard
to
a
supermarket
I
mean.
First
of
all,
there
are
opportunities
to
look
at
what
we
call
micro
supermarkets,
where
they're
smaller
in
context.
They
don't
need
the
parking
they
actually
survive,
and
you
see
that
downtown
all
the
time
where
people
in
the
local
community.
It's
really
both
the
local
community
use
lines.
So
that's
one
model
that
can
be
used
in
my.
J
And
and
and
so
I
get
but
again,
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
that
that
is
still
we're
still
trying
to
sort
that
out,
but
also
recognizing
to
looking
at
retail
food.
We
can.
We
can
provide
the
the
zoning
we
can
provide
the
box
that
would
be
needed,
but
the
reality
is
is
a
supermarket,
whether
its
large
or
smaller
have
to
have
a
business
model
on
it
would
succeed
and
there's
a
good
chance.
My
former
life
before
politics
was
in
retail
consulting
and
we
could
even
we
could.
J
We
could
put
that
in
there,
but
the
reality
is:
is
it
dependent
on
a
retail
supermarket
actually
coming
in
chances?
Are
they
would
say?
Well,
there's
not
enough
density
to
make
this
work
or
make
it
viable,
and
that's
probably
why
they
haven't
chosen.
But
you
know
the
potential
of
having
something
smaller
Michael
to
to
impact
that
local
community
would
be
viable,
but
we
we
don't
control.
Q
Do
appreciate
that
this
is
why
I
think
adding
even
more
people
in
who
are
just
gonna
be
the
same
situation
if
you're
attracting
vulnerable
people,
if
you're
not
putting
parking
spaces,
so
people
can
actually
drive
three
kilometres
away
to
where
a
grocery
store
is
and
you're
not
making
Morden
station
accessible.
That's
a
big
mistake.
People
are
just
gonna,
suffer
the
way
I've
been
suffering
you
might
as
well
spare
them
from.
J
And
just
the
last
comment
with
regard
you,
you
aware
that-
and
it's
not
part
of
this,
of
course,
but
the
whole
redevelopment
of
Orden
station
is
actually
coming
and
that
that
is
actually
part
of
this,
but
that'll
be
when
you're.
Looking
at
the
future
of
that
little
area
of
that
area.
The
redevelopment
of
warden
station
is
actually
a
big
component
of
that
and
I.
A
L
The
scene
is
that
do
we
need
more
condos
in
the
city
or
no?
No,
we
really
I
know
that.
You
are
aware
in
how
actually
we
have
been
meeting
with
you
meeting
a
con
I've
been
meeting
with
each
one
of
you
speaking
out
the
issue,
but
I
going
to
be
very
concise
and
very
short,
and
there
are
some
situations
that
arise
now
in
the
city
of
Turin.
I.
L
Don't
know
you
are
aware,
but
there
are
people
that
are
renting
a
bed,
so
doesn't
mean
you
go
in
for
a
chief
a
night,
so
you
coming
back
and
your
bed
is
there
with
another
person.
That
is
sleep
a
night.
So
this
was
on
her
on
the
City
of
Toronto,
but
now
is
here-
and
this
was
happening
in
China
in
the
situation
here
is
so
difficult.
L
L
And
our
being
rental
and
no
condos
condo
a
condos
in
that
we
can
know,
we
need
to
work
better
to
a
deal
because
we
treat
4000
units
and
then
only
having
1000
units
it
is
on
her
is
our
land.
We
need
to
be
the
ones
who
call
the
shots.
No,
no,
the
developers
and
again
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
consular
Christine
one
time
and
consider
Paula
Fletcher
for
the
advocacy
that
you
really
care
for
this
city
well
housing.
So
this
is
what
I
had
to
say.
Thank
you.
Cue.
F
We
have
members
across
Toronto
who
have
a
massive
problem:
around
unaffordable
housing
we've
heard
all
morning
about
housing,
housing,
affordable,
nobody's
mentioned
unaffordable
housing.
That's
why
I'm
here
today,
I'm
here
to
speak
about
the
housing
site
in
Scarborough
as
building
more
affordable
housing,
and
this
is
a
good
first
step,
but
as
an
individual
as
an
OD,
SP
long-term
recipient
I
want
to
point
out
a
few
things
and
bring
to
your
attention.
F
F
F
My
rent
next
month
is
going
up
through
a
four
point:
nine
percent,
my
rent,
will
be
nine
twenty
five
and
if
you
take
the
numbers
not
hard
to
figure
out,
you
take
925
out
of
11
out
of
11
69,
there's
not
much
left
I'm
working
a
part-time
job.
That
I
should
never
be
doing
all
my
doctor's
realize
that,
but
I
have
to
do
it
because
I
have
to
pay
my
rent,
which
79
percent
of
my
income
from
Montillo
disability,
excluding
my
small
part-time
job.
F
The
rent
is
about
50%
of
their
income.
Working
a
part-time
job.
Affordable
should
be
based
on
rent
geared
to
income,
not
skyrocketing
rent
on
top
of
that,
affordable
developments
need
to
have
real
rent
control
in
order
to
state
or
remain
affordable.
Now,
with
no
rent
control,
every
landlord
is
trying
to
get
rid
of
any
tenant
low,
paying
long-term
tenant
because
they
know
they
can
jack
up
the
rent
and
they'll
get
it
because
our
rental
rental
stock
is
I,
think
below
one
percent.
F
F
We
need
to
commit
a
real
rent
control
on
all
developments,
getting
public
funds,
our
land,
our
taxpayers,
land,
our
community
land,
I,
hear
from
so
many
acorn
community
members
at
our
meetings
about
ridiculous
above
guideline
increases
I'm
a
recipient
of
one
of
those
also
and
about
landlords
who
want
their
tents
to
leave,
so
they
can
jack
up
their
rent
on
a
new
tenant.
This
is
happening
today,
everyday
everywhere,
not
just
in
Toronto,
but
in
Canada
landlords
used
to
love,
long
term,
tenants
now
long
term
tenants.
We
are
just
simply
a
liability.
F
F
P
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
Alejandro
Gonzalez,
random
and
I'm,
a
member
of
the
Association
of
communications
for
a
forum.
Now
at
this
and
Jamestown
neighborhood
chapter
at
acorn,
we
work
to
improve
communities
by
encouraging
the
public
and
city
officials
as
well
as
organizing
communities
across
the
city
of
Toronto
and
throughout
the
country
towards
social
and
economic
justice.
Most
of
our
members
in
our
organization
comprised
low
and
moderate
income
earners
families
and
workers
who
are
renters,
but
also
social
assistance
and
ODSP
recipients.
P
On
behalf
of
our
members,
in
echoing
the
concerns
of
Torontonians,
we
must
remind
that
the
City
of
Toronto
is
long
experiencing
a
housing
crisis,
as
the
population
of
the
city
is
growing
rapidly.
It's
also
becoming
unaffordable.
Lack
of,
affordable
housing
and
lack
of
affordable
rent
is
creating
struggles
and
residents
of
the
city
who
must
choose
to
pay
between
pain,
foot
pain,
food
or
paying
the
rent.
This
high
in
social
and
economic
conditions
affects
the
well-being
of
residents
in
the
city.
P
We
welcome
the
development
of
705
Warren
Avenue
housed
in
a
community
project
and
encourage
that
this
development
should
focus
on
insurance,
affordable
housing
for
the
development
of
sustainable
and
livable
communities
we
moved
in.
We
also
must
ensure
that
development
of
accessible
infrastructure
for
future
residents,
including
accessibility
of
services
of
elevators
at
the
TTC
Ward
and
South
Station,
and
the
nearby
community
center
and
recreational
fields
that
will
be
constructed,
which
would
take
into
account
among
those
future
residents
there
will
be
seniors
and
people
with
disabilities
that
they
will
be
using
such
services.
P
Finally,
we
must
also
question
the
definition
of
affordability
that
is
based
on
market
average
trend
and
instead
should
be
make
on
the
it
should
be
based
on
income
in
immunised.
We
must
take
consideration
that
to
build
thriving
and
livable
communities,
there
must
be
planning
on
services
such
as
community
and
health
services,
commercial
and
commercial
and
transportation
services,
and
to
prioritize
economic
opportunities
for
those
who
will
be
residents
on
this
community,
particularly
on
the
705
Warren
Avenue.
Thank
you
thank.
C
Really
pretty
actually
so
I
come
here
representing
about
40
people
who
live
in
that
community.
They've
asked
me
to
be
here
because
for
them
it's
very
hard
to
get
here
being
with
Gordon
station,
not
accessible
and
wheel.
Trans
issues
and
the
like
I
have
a
question
for
everybody
and
Kristin.
You
may
know
this
better
than
most
there's
a
no
frills
on
Front
Street
East
that
is
below
I.
Think
it's
the
National
Post
Billy
I,
don't
remember
which
newspaper
but.
C
C
C
C
No
one
would
give
me
answers
and
we
either
had
a
choice
of
being
homeless
and
possibly
dying
yet
again,
being
put
in
danger.
I
had
to
take
city
to
the
Ombudsman
and
I've
got
people
in
the
community
who
are
blind
legally
blind
who
have
guide
dog
a
couple.
People
in
wheelchairs
and
friends
have
had
to
move
out
of
that
community
to
inaccessibility
and
dependence
on
wheel
trans.
When
there's
a
lot
of
snow,
it's
extremely
hard
to
get
around
the
community
center
is
underused,
yes,
but
part
of
the
reason.
Why?
For
that,
is
it's
not
accessible?
C
C
You
can't
afford
the
food
from
Dollar,
Rama
or
Walmart,
or
those
metro
or
Donuts
they're
not
affordable,
unless
it's
not
a
really
good
sale,
forget
about
metro
being
affordable.
There's
no
soup
kitchens
in
that
area
that
are
wheelchair,
accessible
and
usable
that
run
on
a
daily
basis.
They're
all
centered,
downtown
and
I
just
want
each
of
every
one
of
you.
When
we
do
developments
I've
seen
developers
come
through
with
zero
visibility
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
people
with
disabilities
can't
go
visit.
Their
friends
and
relatives
and
Kristin's
spoke
about
it
about
her
house.
C
So
she
knows
what
it's
like.
So,
let's
put
at
least
visit
ability
in
each
of
these
projects,
but
let's
also
think
about
those
of
us
on
ODSP,
the
young
man
who's
on
ODSP
and
works
part
time.
I
can
tell
from
my
own
experience.
Odsp
takes
40%
of
whatever
you
make.
You
can
make
$200
a
month,
then
they
take
dollar
for
dollar.
Oh
yeah,
they
give
you
$100
a
month
that
doesn't
even
cover
your
TTC.
C
They
give
you
five
hundred
dollars
per
year
if
you
apply
for
it
and
it's
hard
to
get
so,
no
matter
what
we
need
to
think
about
the
community.
That
community
needs
help.
The
aging
infrastructure
of
TC
HC
in
that
community
is
bad
enough.
The
active
discrimination
of
not
making
new
projects
accessible
and
I'm
going
to
say
that
I've
been
to
adjustment
here
is
I've,
been
to
t
pack
or
whatever
they
call
it
now,
and
so
many
of
these
developers
don't
give
a
hoot
about
accessibility.
We
have
section
37
funds,
were
they
truly
going
Emily.
C
A
J
Changes
do
occur
as
we're
going
through
this
planning
process,
but
one
of
the
things
that
also
as
we
go
through
a
process
is
you
you.
You
begin
at
the
beginning
of
this
process,
of
an
understanding
where
it's
gonna
be,
but
you
work
towards
where
you
think
it's
going
to
be
ending
up.
Where
community
has
certain
expectations
that
as
we
get
to
the
final
process,
it
you
get
to
see
what
its
gonna
be.
Looking
like
and
I
think
we
had
numerous
consultations.
J
Oh
I
had
numerous,
along
with
consultations
along
with
city
staff
on
the
community,
and
a
lot
of
that
had
to
do
with
just
the
explanation
of
what
the
program
was
all
about.
What
the
definition
of
affordable
housing
was
all
about
and
I
think
through
those
conversations
the
community
there
was
more
of-
and
it
was
an
educational
component
of
understanding
what
was
about
and
I,
think
a
recognition
number
one
that
we
knew
dude
it's
a
priority.
J
We
need
to
put
in
more
affordable
housing
and
recognition
that
it's
not
just
there,
this
particular
site
or
over
Victoria
Park.
This
is
citywide,
but
we
got
to
this
understanding
I.
Think
generally
not
I
mean
there
are
some
people
who
weren't
supportive
I
get
that
but
I
think
generally
community
was
well,
we
recognized,
and
we
expect
that
there's
going
to
be
something
happening
here.
The
challenge,
of
course,
is
now
here
we
are
from
the
community's
perspective.
J
We've
stopped
we're
gonna,
sort
of
we're
sort
of
in
a
holding
pattern
for
I,
don't
know
a
couple
months
or
longer
and
then
we're
coming
back.
Looking
at
and
I,
we
don't
know
if
it's
a
new
plan
where
the
community
that
I
represent
had
these
expectations
of
this
is
kind
of
where
it's
going
to
be
going
and
now
we're
not
too
sure.
J
A
No
I'm,
sorry
that
it
doesn't
work
like
that.
I'm
sorry,
sir
sir
I'm,
sorry
ma'am,
ma'am,
I'm,
sorry
so
I
will
be
placing
the
adjournment
motion
and
it
actually
so
adjourns
the
public
meeting
on
the
under
the
Planning
Act
and
the
zoning
bylaw
amendment
until
June
11th
requests
the
chief
planner
and
executive
director
to
review
potential
revisions
to
the
development
concept,
with
the
objective
of
providing
additional
housing
opportunities
to
consult
with
the
ward
councillor
and
local
community.
A
With
respect
to
the
above
and
request
that
you've
planted
an
executive
director,
City
Planning
to
report
on
the
community
consultation
outcomes
on
proposed
revisions
to
the
development
concept
and
any
changes
to
the
draft
zoning
bylaw
amendment.
Okay,
so
can
I
have
a
vote
on
that
all
those
in
favor
and
that
carries.
Thank
you.
So
much.
A
A
Okay,
so
I
do
have
to
make
an
announcement
on
this
item.
The
Planning
and
Housing
Committee
is
holding
a
statutory
special
meeting
in
accordance
with
section
26
of
the
planning
and
for
item

and

13.3
official

transportation
recommended
Official
Plan
amendment
okay,
speaker
on
on
the
side,
I'm
Raymond,
Chen,
Raymond,.
A
S
Better,
thank
you
good
morning,
I'd
like
to
start
with
the
question.
What's
it
take
to
get
Toronto's
1.7
million
TTC
passengers
to
their
destinations,
I'm,
a
private
citizen
from
Scarborough
I
spent
the
past
year,
trying
to
improve
mat
floor
of
the
Official
Plan
I.
Consider
my
time
spent
my
legacy
to
improve
public
transit
for
Toronto
I,
don't
know
if
I'll
be
around
for
the
next
time.
S
The
opie
will
be
up
for
review
I'm
here
to
ask
you
for
the
following
direct
to
see
the
chief
planner
and
executive
director
city
planning,
the
general
manager
of
transportation
services,
in
collaboration
with
the
chief
customer
officer
strategy,
planning,
innovation
and
customer
service,
Toronto
Transit
Commission,
to
develop
an
organization
and
supporting
processes
to
issue
a
master
transit
plan
for
Toronto.
Currently,
the
city
does
not
have
a
structure
nor
staff
for
strategic
public
transit
design.
S
This
is
from
the
opiate
is
map
for
the
high
order
transit
network
on
page
7
of
the
proposed
revisions
to
the
opie.
In
addition
to
section
3
reads,
the
city
will
work
with
its
partners
to
improve
and
expand
high
order
transit
network
by
be
undertaking
comprehensive
planning
processes
for
new
high
order.
Transit
services
in
the
corridor
is
identified
on
map
for
okay.
S
S
S
When
counsellors
office
undertook
the
following,
they
sent
my
plan
to
a
transit
expert
upon
his
review.
They
submitted
my
plan
to
the
TTC
using
a
privileged
counselor
channel.
Thank
you
for
your
email
that
was
very
detailed,
so
I
sent
it
to
TTC
staff.
They
have
assigned
a
reference
number
see
the
title:
okay,.
S
S
So
ok,
here
I
asked
you
to
direct
the
chief
planner,
an
executive
director,
City
Planning,
the
general
manager
of
Trent
transportation
services
is
in
collaboration
with
the
chief
officer
strategy,
planning,
innovation
and
customer
service
TTC
to
develop
an
organization
and
supporting
processes
to
issue
a
master
transit
plan
for
Toronto.
Currently,
the
city
does
not
have
a
structure
nor
staff
for
strategic
transit.
Public
transit
design.
S
City
Council
is
trying
to
get
Ron
Tony
ins
back
on
their
feet
by
failing
to
define
a
master,
a
plan.
I
have
a
couple
of
seconds
left.
I've
noticed
that
public
housing
is
a
very
important
issue.
It's
number
one
I'm
here
for
number,
two
public,
transit
and
I.
Don't
think
council
is
giving
enough
time
to
address
problem
number
two
I
kind
of
feel
left
out
on
this.
Thank
you.
Thank.
B
Good
morning,
go
ahead
should
I
just
start
yeah
thanks
for
having
us
here
today.
My
name
is
Kristen
I
work
at
culturally
settlement
community
services
and
for
30
years
our
organization
has
assisted
newcomers
with
establishing
themselves
in
Toronto.
We've
served
25,000
people
in
the
last
year,
including
children,
youth,
seniors
and
so
on,
and
among
our
innovative
programs
is
the
bike
to
school
project,
and
it's
on
behalf
of
that
that
I'm
here
today
to
speak
in
support
of
some
of
the
new
language
that
is
in
front
of
you
to
be
part
of
the
official
plan,
I'm.
B
Also
a
parent
of
a
grade,
7
student
who
travels
to
school
by
bike
and
by
transit
every
day.
So
we'd
like
to
speak
in
support
of
the
amendments
proposed
in
section
2.4,
bringing
the
city
together,
a
progressive
agenda,
transportation
change
and
specifically
the
new
sidebar
text
regarding
active
and
sustainable
school
travel
or
asst.
B
To
quote
from
the
proposed
new
text,
asst
programs
aim
to
increase
the
proportion
of
youth
walking,
biking
wheeling
and
taking
transit.
It
focuses
on
creating
safer
environments
for
school-aged,
travelers
of
all
abilities
and
fostering
healthier
and
more
sustainable
transportation
habits
from
an
early
age.
B
We're
very
pleased
to
see
this
new
sidebar
text.
It's
the
first
time
that
school
travel
is
going
to
be
part
of
this
city's
official
plan.
To
my
knowledge,
school
travel
accounts
for
a
large
proportion
of
driving
trips,
especially
in
the
morning,
and
contributes
to
congestion
and
air
pollution,
and
reducing
the
driving
trips
and
converting
them
to
actor
to
travel
in
particular
will
help
Toronto
to
meet
goals
related
to
environmental
sustainability
and
health.
B
B
B
Today
and
25
percent
of
secondary
school
students,
but
there
is
some
good
news
and
the
recent
reports,
and
that
is
that
the
proportion
of
children
being
driven
to
school
is
about
leveling
off
after
three
decades
of
increases
and
there's
more
kids
traveling
by
TTC,
probably
because
of
the
free
transit
under
age
12.
Another
under
and
more
high
school
students
are
biking
to
school
than
ever
before.
That
reflects
the
overall
increase
in
cycling
in
the
City
of
Toronto.
So
you
know
we
just
want
to
applaud
the
city
staff
for
working
together
to
bring
this
forward.
B
What
we
would
hope,
I
guess,
is
that
so
you
know
you
take
notes
of
this
and
look
for
opportunities
to
put
that
into
action
and
in
policy,
and
that
we
hope
that
next
time
around
next
time
that
there
are
amendments
being
considered
that
this
will
make
it
into
a
policy
section
and
move
from
the
sidebar
to
the
policy.
So
that's
that's
really
our
comments
for
today,
great.
A
D
D
So
we're
here
today
to
say
that
to
speak
to
four
five
six
and
to
say
that
our
current
transit
is
not
perfect
by
any
means.
But
following
extensive
public
consultation
and
studies
by
both
Metrolinx
and
the
city,
there's
now
a
plan
in
place
through
a
combination
of
enhancements
to
the
GO
train
and
enhancements
to
surface
transit
with
new
street
cards,
including
very
recent
reconstructed
streetcar
tracks
that
were
refurbished
for
the
new
streetcars.
D
We're
therefore,
here
to
respectfully
ask
the
members
of
this
committee
to
amend
the
proposal.
That's
before
you
to
remove
higher
order,
transit
west
of
parkland
along
Lake
Shore
Boulevard
west,
through
Etobicoke,
on
map
for
for
the
following
reasons.
So
just
so
we're
this
is
Long
Branch
right
here.
Okay,
and
this
is
how
the
transit
corridor
is
right
now,
so
there's
no
designation
to
it.
However,
there
is
surface
area
transit
that
goes
along
lakeshore
fryer
priority.
So
what
we
would
like
to
amend
is
this
area.
D
That's
circled,
I'm
here
in
the
red,
so
you've
got
this
blue
line
that
goes
along
goes
along
Lakeshore.
So,
by
definition,
the
provincial
growth
plan
higher
order
transit
is
transit
that
generally
operates
and
partially
or
completely
dedicated
right
way,
right
ways
of
traffic
outside
of
mixed
traffic
and
therefore
can
achieve
levels
of
speed
and
reliability
greater
than
mixed
traffic
transit.
D
So
higher
order
transit
can
include
heavy
rail,
such
as
subway
or
intercity
rail
light
rail
and
buses
in
a
dedicated
right-of-way,
so
LR
tees
or
higher
order
transit
has
been
studied
by
the
city
for
lakeshore
multiple
times
over
the
years,
and
it's
always
failed.
There's
been
no
studies
or
analysis
to
support
designating
lakeshore
west
of
parkland
as
higher-order
transit.
There
is
substantial
new
development
ongoing
and
more
growth
planned
in
Long
Branch.
D
This
is
premature
as
there
has
been
no
consultation
and
no
studies
or
plans
to
support
where
that
new
growth
should
go
long-range
is
already
under
intensive
development
pressure
outside
of
where
the
city
has
it
identified
areas
for
growth,
mainly
from
investors
from
outside
of
Toronto.
This
is
dramatically
driven
up
the
cost
of
our
housing
and
is
removing
previously
more
affordable
housing
to
replace
it
with
much
more
expensive
and
much
less
affordable
housing.
D
That's
out
of
reach
of
most
Ananta
of
many
in
Toronto,
now
we've
been
told
by
city
staff
that
there's
no
plans
and
no
budget
for
the
foreseeable
future
to
create
higher
order
transit
along
Lakeshore.
There
are
no
studies
that
have
shown
that
it's
economically
or
physically
feasible.
So,
what's
the
urgency
in
putting
something
that's
unbudgeted
not
feasible,
and
with
no
consultation
than
in
this
plan,
there
was
consultation
for
this
plan
amendment
and
the
feedback
was
that
this
would
not
work
and
was
not
desired.
So
why
is
it
here?
D
D
D
This
directs
higher
order,
transit
along
Lake
Ontario.
It
does
not
delineate
it
strictly
to
lakeshore
through
Long.
Branch
Queens
way
has
not
been
identified
in
this
amendment
as
an
option
on
that
for,
and
it
may
very
well
be
a
better
candidate
according
to
the
city's
own
studies.
To
date,
the
go
is
higher
order
transit
already,
so
in
making
Lake
Shore
higher
order
right
beside
is
duplication,
I'm.
D
So
we're
under
extreme
development
pressure,
that's
eroding
our
neighborhood
character,
quality
of
life
and
removing
our
tree
canopy
and
at
a
time
I
was
we're
addressing
in
surpassing
provincial
growth
targets
through
planned
development
along
the
Avenue
and
site-specific
plans
that
direct
growth
so
to
designate
lakeshore
Boulevard
as
a
higher
order
transit
corridor.
That's
not
likely
visible
premature
and
will
direct
even
more
unplanned
growth
in
our
neighborhood
and
ultimately
result
in
no
better
transit
for
long
grants
residents.
D
N
N
N
When
we
get
into
areas
where
we
have
businesses,
they
have
the
similar
scenario,
but
in
this
in
this
particular
photo
which
is
lakeshore
and
superior,
we
don't
see
bike
lanes.
We
do
have
on
street
parking,
but
this
is
an
area
where
the
transit
corridor
is
only
26
meters
wide.
So
where
are
we
going
to
put
platforms
for
a
dedicated
transit
line
and
have
parking
and
have
vehicular
traffic
and
have
bike
lanes
in
new
Toronto?
It
looks
like
this
feels
even
tighter.
We
do
have
parking.
N
And
if
we
were
to
continue
further
west,
basically,
what
you
see
is
two
lane
four
lanes
of
vehicular
traffic
you've
got
parking,
no
bike,
lane
sidewalk,
and
then
you
have
buildings.
So
our
feeling
is
that
if
the
city
wants
to
expand
higher
order
transit
along
the
lakeshore
corridor,
it
probably
is
going
to
mean
expropriation
of
property.
It's
probably
going
to
mean
taking
out
some
of
these
buildings
where
sidewalks
or
something's
got
to
give
in
order
to
have
the
space
for
the
higher
order
transit
line.
N
N
There
were
a
number.
Quite
quite
a
few
organizations
were
invited
for
public
consultation,
but
the
Long
Branch
Business
Improvement
Association
was
not
among
those,
nor
was
the
Long
Branch
Neighborhood
Association
among
those
invited.
So
we
feel
that
amending
this
or
deferring
this
form
or
consultation
is
what
we'd
like
to
see
thanks.
H
Yes,
good
morning,
I
was
lurking.
It
was
a
very
full
full
crowd
here,
which
is
great.
It
helps
to
have
a
prop.
These
are
snowdrops,
I,
normally
associate
them
as
spring
flowers.
These
guys,
unfortunately,
or
fortunately
they're
blooming
and
they've,
been
blooming
in
a
yard
on
Brunswick
from
mid-january,
or
so
this
is
not
okay.
H
This
is
actually
really
bad
because
we
are
in
a
climate
emergency-
and
this
is
very
relevant
to
this
item
in
that
transport
has
been
leading
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
for
a
longer
time,
and
we
are
not
doing
nearly
enough
about
at
all
so
because
of
this
climate
emergency.
And
what
do
we
do
in
emergency?
We
call
fire
departments.
We
we
stop
what
we're
doing.
We
really
have
a
great
pause
and
adjust
what
we're
doing.
H
That
is
a
new
depth.
Unfortunately,
and
this
is
bad
news-
bad
news,
bad
news,
an
old
article,
it's
time
to
start
counting
emissions
like
calories,
we
are
not
including
concrete
in
our
missionary
in
our
assessment
of
transit
projects.
That's
a
really
great
omission.
Our
EAS
have
to
adjust
ourselves.
Our
thinking
has
to
adjust.
So
please
ask
the
federal
level
when
you're
another
motion
to
include
concrete
in
any
assessment
of
higher
order,
transit
projects.
This
is
another
situation.
Here
too,
we
are
subsidizing.
The
car.
This
is
the
status
quo.
H
This
is
a
couple
of
decades
old,
twenty
seven
hundred
bucks
per
car
per
year.
That's
a
huge
amount
of
money.
That's
what
we're
we're
up
against,
there's
an
amended
cartoon
to
show
the
conditions
on
road
to
some
degree
and
on
subway
and
on
transit.
They
want
more
for
the
crowded
transit,
really
fare
height,
less
service,
the
cyclists
I
hope
I
live
potholes
everywhere
is
a
horrible
situation,
especially
in
the
core,
and
meanwhile
the
spacious
Carkoon,
all
those
fairy
Vader's.
They
don't
want
a
you
know
and
and
I
get
that
the
cars
are
very
helpful
sometimes.
H
But
it's
such
an
unequal
situation
that
we're
in
now
that
we
have
to
have
transport
equity
first
and
foremost,
and
one
of
the
ways
is
to
hey,
let's
lower
the
speed
limits,
just
something
that
actually
doesn't
kill
so
often
so
in
terms
of
pausing
going
and
amending
map
for
what
good
our
official
plan,
sometimes
here's
a
page
from
an
official
plan
of
metro,
1944
I.
Guess
you
see
that
highlighted
their
point.
H
It
they
were
proposing
doing
public
transit
in
the
Don
Valley
meeting
up
with
gogo
was
supposed
to
do
a
NEA
to
actually
have
the
connection
up
in
in
Eglinton
area.
As
you
know,
I've
been
pushing
surface
transit
as
a
surface
relief
and
emergency
triage
has
a
proper
response
to
the
climate
crises
pause
it
because
we
have
to
adjust
our
plans
to
think
about
surface
surface
transit.
H
So
another
motion,
please
that
all
work
on
the
Ontario
line
be
pause
until
there's
thorough
and
open
exploration
of
largely
surface
transit
options
than
the
Don
Valley,
including
this
Bayview
to
Ferncliff,
Eglinton
trans
line
and
the
metro
official
plan
of
1994
and
until
goal
is
completed.
The
ei
for
connection
to
this
line,
as
noted
in
footnote
2,
and
that
this
desire
for
pause
be
communicated
to
other
levels
of
government
such
as
has
been
to
include
the
presumed
flooding
mitigation
now
underway
for
three
billion
dollars.
H
We're
spending
three
billion
dollars
to
adjust
the
flooding
in
the
Don
vally.
Why
don't
we
try
and
leverage
the
actual
expenditure
to
make
sure
that
we
can
actually
think
of
transit
in
the
dawn
valley?
There
is
a
solution
to
our
young
line.
Can
we
not
find
a
bit
of
room
there?
There's
an
unused
spur
line?
The
other
thing
is
like
we,
you
know
the
Scarborough
subway
waste
of
billions.
There's
the
gatineau
hydro
corridor,
a
man
map
for
to
include
putting
in
the
gatineau
hydro
corridor
as
a
possible
solution
for
transit
moves
in
Scarborough.
H
H
T
Thank
you,
my
name's
martin
Gervin,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
Mimico
lakeshore
community
network
and
like
two
of
the
speakers
before
me,
I'd
like
to
concentrate
on
a
very
small
part
of
map
number
four,
namely
the
stretch
of
Lake
Shore
Boulevard
between
Legion
Road
and
Long
Branch
in
attachment
1.
This
is
designated
on
this
map
as
a
higher
order
transit
corridor,
but
in
previous
studies
and
in
previous
input
from
the
public,
this
has
been
very
much
opposed.
T
The
the
waterfront
transit
study,
the
most
professional
and
thorough
study
of
the
whole
question
recommended
in
streetcar
infrastructure,
the
longest
stretch
of
nature
Boulevard,
but
not
a
higher
order,
transit,
not
something
that
would
require
or
wider
right
away
and
all
of
the
nice
Bills
of
whistling
Xena
Spadina
Avenue
style.
Higher
order
transit
now
under
there
was
some
community
consultation
about
this
on
the
2nd
of
May.
The
city
held
a
meeting
at
the
topical
city's
Civic
Center
and
six
people
showed
up
to
their
credit.
Some
of
those
six
people
voiced
concerns
over
this
proposed
higher
order.
T
Transit
along
Lake,
Shore,
Boulevard
I,
quote
from
the
report,
which
is
in
attachment
6
to
the
report
on
page
10
and
on
page
56
participants
challenged
higher
order
transit
line
riding
through
new
Toronto
amico.
It
was
know
that
there
have
been
two
previous
projects,
specific
consultations
on
this
particular
line,
and
that
did
not
feel
there
was
justification
for
showing
it
as
a
higher
order.
Transit
participants
also
suggested
that
map
for
needs
more
clarity.
T
It
certainly
does
and
for
this
reason,
I
would
join
the
voice
of
our
organization
to
those
voices
that
have
been
raised
before
asking
of
this
particular
feature
of
the
amendments
to
the
transportation
master
plan
be
deleted
at
this
time,
because
it's
very
premature,
the
there
has
been
no
report
or
no
feedback
from
the
city
to
show
why
the
feedback
from
the
community
was
ignored.
Why
the
higher
order
transit
corridor
was
left
in
place
for
lecture
Boulevard
West
when
the
people
who
turned
out
on
behalf
of
the
community
of
all
six
of
them.
T
A
lot
of
our
only
six
in
the
group
focused
on
this
as
something
that
would
be
a
problem
and
called
it
premature.
The
the
the
waterfront
transit
reset
this
is
that
this
that
that
the
time
horizon
at
twenty
forty
one
and
and
concluded
that
nothing
more
than
enhanced
streetcar
infrastructure
was
needed
or
could
be
accommodated
anytime
before
2040
one.
So
why
does
this
until
included
in
the
2020
revision
of
the
official
plan
transportation
policies?
The
wise
thing
is
obviously
to
delete
it
now
and
have
a
proper
examination
and
consultation
of
why
this
is
desirable.
T
Someone
might
say
what
does
no
harm
to
put
it
on
the
map
to
indicate
you
know
what
longer-term
plans
might
turn
out
to
be,
but
that
isn't
so.
Our
organization
has
taken
part
in
too
long
dragged
out
appeals
before
the
Ontario
Municipal
Board
or
now
known
as
local
planning
appeal.
You
know,
and
in
that
context
we've
experienced
how
the
words
of
the
Official
Plan
and
maps
in
the
Official
Plan
are
words
of
power.
T
T
I've
know
what
were
apt
to
get
if
this
goes
ahead
is
intensification
without
the
higher
order
transit,
the
higher
order
transit
isn't
coming
till
2040
anyway.
So
please,
let's
delete
this
from
the
current
proposal
and
postpone
this
for
a
future
revision
of
the
Official
Plan
Transportation.
Thank
you.
A
G
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity.
My
name
is
Rhoda
Potter
and
I
represent
Agincourt,
Village,
Community
Association.
Contrary
to
what
I'm
hearing
this
morning,
we
are
in
the
midst
in
Ward
42
of
intense
intensification
along
Sheppard
Avenue.
We
also
deal
with
Agincourt
bose
station,
which
is
being
expanded
and
the
Stovall
corridor
which
is
being
expanded.
Yet
we
have
nothing.
We
have
public
transportation
that
is
not
efficient
to
connect
to
that
go
station
at
Agincourt,
which
takes
us
to
Union
Station
in
20
minutes
we're
happy
to
see.
G
We
are
happy
to
see
the
extra
housing
that
is
going
to
be
in
place
very
shortly,
along
Sheppard
Avenue
between
Victoria
Park
and
Glen,
Watford
Avenue,
both
sides,
and
especially
at
Kennedy,
and
the
401
area
Kennedy
and
Sheppard,
the
second
largest
development
at
Agincourt
mall.
Yet
we
do
not
have
higher
order
transportation.
So
we
endorse
the
fact
that
in
this
document
you
have
adjusted
our
area
to
be
higher
order
transportation.
We
desperately
need
it.
Thank
you.
A
G
You
thank
you.
Sorry,
for
Fletcher
I
understand
that
there
was
a
new
density
approved
with
the
transit
city
plan,
which
was
the
LRT
that
was
to
run
on
Shepard,
that
that
was
a
spur
to
approving
density.
Are
you
aware
of
that?
That's
correct,
and
it
was
our
former
mayor
who
cancelled
that
project,
which
would
be
in
place
at
this
moment.
Had
it
gone
forward
so
that
would
have
been
in
place
on
Shepard
to
address
the
density,
it
would
have
and
I
think
you're
looking
for
something
that
will
move
quickly.
G
G
On
your
matrix,
the
two
things
that
your
community
wants
are
basically
what
is
what
can
be
achieved
in
what
can
be
achieved
in
the
shortest
possible
time
and
what
can
be
achieved?
That's
affordable
that
can
deliver
that
immediately.
Yes,
what
you're,
asking
for
or
you're,
not
necessarily
looking
at
the
short
term.
We
know
that
this
is
going
to
take
time,
but
what
we're
looking
for
right
now
there
is
a
line
drawn
on
the
map
to
connect
rimmel
station
to
the
McGowan
station.
Oh
got
it,
which
we
desperately
need,
there's
no
budget
to
support
that.
G
Yet
we
do
have
we're
a
drive
through
community
communities
drive
through
from
the
905
area
from
east
and
north.
Thank
you
and
what
we
need
is
that
trans
are
you
interested
in
that
happening
as
quickly
as
possible
or
you're
willing
to
wait?
20
years
we're
hoping
it'll
happen
before
I'm
kind
of
asking?
Are
you
willing
to
wait
twice
to
me
whether
I
want
a
subway
or
an
LRT
I'm
asking
you
if
you
care,
if
you
have
a
fast,
quick
LRT
that
could
deliver
this,
probably
quicker
or
you
want
to
get
in
line
for
a
subway?
G
That's
we
still
don't
have
anything
happening,
even
though
we
approved
the
Scarborough
subway
in
2013.
So
you
said
I'm
interested
if
you're
speaking
for
the
community,
are
they
totally
Wed
or
do
you
want
transit
that
will
move
people
quickly
and
move
looking
for
the
budget
to
provide
us,
the
public
transit?
That's
all,
there's
a
budget
that
provides
an
LRT.
You
would
support
that
I'm,
not
I'm,
not
going
to
speak
on
behalf
of
the
whole.
G
Can
let
me
ask
you
personally,
I'm
not
going
to
I'm
not
going
to
answer
that
question
they're,
not
answering
whether
or
not
you'd
take
a
speedy
LRT
that
could
be
delivered
in
a
few
years.
If
the
subway
was
to
take
20
years,
you'd
rather
wait
I'm,
just
asking
you
personally,
we
actually
need
the
subway,
so
you'd
rather
wait
for
20
years,
but
you
need
to
show
us
the
budget
I'm.
G
Sorry,
the
budget
will
be
dealt
with
once
the
decision
is
made
if
there's
money
but
I'm
asking
you
you're
coming
here,
telling
us
that
you
you
personally
because
I
know
you
can't
speak
for
your
whole
community.
If
you're
asking
me
personally,
yes,
we
need
the
subway
and
you
don't
mind
waiting
up
to
20
years.
G
We
need
the
subway
I'm
taking
your
answer
and
if
you're
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
community,
would
they
say
we
want
something
that
will
move
people
quickly,
that
I'm
not
pretty
do
not
prepare
so
you're,
not
representing
the
community
you're
representing
yourself
for
that
particular
question
that
you're
asking
me
I
will
answer
that
personally.
But
I
am
here
to
say
that
the
community
needs
better
public
transportation
and
and
I'm
complement
here.
You
here
but
I,
hear
you
say
you're
here
on
behalf
of
your
community,
so
I'm
being
clear
with
you
on
behalf
of
your
community.
G
Are
you
able
to
say
whatever
you
can
deliver
the
fastest
and
moves
the
most
number
of
people
we
want
that
tomorrow?
Or
are
you
only
able
you
can't
say
that,
because
it
conflicts
with
your
personal
opinion,
I
can't
say
that
because
it
conflicts
with
your
personal,
so
I
want
to
be
clear.
You're
representing
your
views
here
as
to
how
to
do
that.
G
A
Thank
you.
We
only
have
a
few
minutes
left
and
I
know
that
we
want
to
release
some
items
so
I'm
gonna,
leave,
question
of
staff
and
the
rest
of
the
remaining
of
the
item
for
after
lunch.
I
do
warn
to
acknowledge,
because
a
little
bird
just
whispered
in
my
ear
that
today
is
counselor
noon.
Sea,
otters
birthday
and
she
spend
the
morning
with
us.
A
A
Okay,
so
so,
if
the
committee
is
okay
with
it,
you
have
you
up.
Emotion,
I
I
do
have
a
couple
of
motions,
I'm
just
check
wondering
if
the
committee
would
be
okay
with
us
doing
it
as
a
quick
release
or
if
there's
any
questions,
is
it
okay?
Okay,
so
I'll
show
you
my
motions,
so
there's
two
motions:
one
is
with
regards
to
affordable
housing
on
the
site
that
I'm
asking
that
we
look
at
other
opportunities
and
the
other
one
is
a
request
from
the
local
Chancellor.
