Review of Order Paper - May 11, 2010
City Council Decision

City Council adopted the May 11, 2010 Order Paper, and all other Items not held on consent.

Motions (City Council)
Review Order Paper

May 11, 2010 at 10:19 a.m. - Speaker Bussin advised Council of the following:

 

            The Mayor has identified the following Key Matters: 

 

-      Community Development and Recreation Committee Item CD32.1, headed "2009 Street Needs Assessment: Results and Observations"; and

 

-      Public Works and Infrastructure Committee Item PW32.8, headed "Proposed Public Bicycle Program". 

 

These will be our first Items of business today.

 

            It is proposed that Council consider the other Items in agenda order.

 

            Council is scheduled to meet in closed session at 6:00 p.m. tonight, if required.  Notices of Motions will be dealt with at 2:00 p.m. tomorrow, if the Mayor's Key Matters are completed.

 

Speaker Bussin drew Council's attention to two Items on the Order Paper.  The first was Item EX43.11, headed " Open Meeting Investigation on the 2008-2009 Budget Committee Process".  The Speaker advised Council of the following:

 

This Item was referred by City Council on January 26, 2010, to the Budget and Executive Committees.   Council directed that when this Item was next before City Council, Professor Sossin, the Open Meeting Investigator, be invited to attend, and City Council accommodate him by considering the matter as a time-specific Item.

 

            Mr. Sossin has been invited to attend but unfortunately he is not able to attend this meeting.  I now seek Council's direction in this matter. 

 

If Council wishes to defer this matter until the Open Meeting Investigator can attend, I will accept a motion to defer.  That, however, may have the unintended consequence of delaying the measures proposed the Executive Committee in its report.

 

            If Council does not defer this matter, debate can proceed and other officials will do their best to provide the information that may be required by Council.

 

            I do note from the report before you that neither the Budget Committee nor the Executive Committee have contested the findings of the Open Meeting Investigator, and in fact have recommended the very course of action recommended by Professor Sossin.   You may want to take that into account in deciding whether to further delay the consideration of this Item.

 

The second Item was Item SC34.25, headed "Protection of the Scarborough Waterfront".  Speaker Bussin ruled this Item out of order.  See that Item for the Speaker's ruling.

Status Report - Official Plan Amendment Application - 2900 Steeles Avenue East at Don Mills Road in the Town of Markham
City Council Decision

City Council on May 11 and 12, 2010, adopted the following:

 

1.         City Council direct the City Clerk to notify the Town of Markham and the Region of York of the City Council comments regarding the application to amend the Official Plan of the Town of Markham at 2900 Steeles Avenue East at Don Mills Road in the Town of Markham as set out in Recommendation Nos. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the report (April 6, 2010) from the Director, Community Planning, North York District, in response to the Public Meeting under the Planning Act scheduled for May 4, 2010.

 

2.         City Council advise the Town of Markham that the subject application should be amended to:

 

a.         reduce the proposed gross density on the site to a maximum of 1.0 times coverage and a maximum of 400 residential units and no increase in this density shall be permitted until construction has begun on the Don Mills LRT or similar major public transportation improvements;

 

b.         redistribute development and the mix of uses over the entire subject site so that more of the development is closer to transit services and better defines and frames Steeles Avenue and Don Mills Road;

 

c.         reduce the maximum height of all building to no more than 6 storeys, the height of the neighbouring residential buildings to the south; and

 

d.         reflect a built form where the buildings fronting onto Steeles Ave. E., Don Mills Road and along the north property line have a one or two storey podium at grade and be tiered away from the perimeter of the development to minimize the impact on the lands in Toronto designated Neighbourhoods located south of Steeles Avenue East and the neighbouring residential communities to the west and north of the site.

 

3.         City Council advise the Town of Markham that Steeles Avenue East in this location has been identified for streetscape improvements including maximizing the landscaping opportunities on the existing median and any negotiations regarding Section 37 of the Planning Act related to this development should include consideration of the use of such funds for Steeles Avenue streetscape improvements.

 

4.         City Council request the Town of Markham to secure the parcel of lands located at the northwest corner of the property, “Future Building G” – phase 7, as parklands.

 

5.         City Council request the Town of Markham to have the storm water drainage plan amended as the Functional Servicing Report depicts approximately 65% of this entire developments storm water be discharged into the existing City of Toronto storm sewer.  The City of Toronto has identified this area as a problematic area subject to flooding.  Many homes in this area were flooded in the August, 2005 storm.  The drainage plan shall be amended to not permit storm water from those major events to travel to the south, and shall be contained on the site.

 

6.         City Council advise the Town of Markham that:

 

a.         this area is prone to flooding.  The Functional Servicing Report depicts the removal of the two existing storm service connections on Steeles Ave., and the installation of two new storm connections to the City of Toronto storm sewer.  City staff do not have the authority to approve the installations of new service connections to accommodate development outside of the limits of the City of Toronto; and

 

b.         as the York Durham Sewer System (YDSS), the sanitary sewer system, currently has capacity constrains and the Shops on Steeles Avenue do not have allocation for the proposed additional residential development,  the residential portion of this plan should not proceed until this site has been allocated sufficient servicing allocation from the YDSS.   No sewer installations or modifications of any kind shall be permitted within the Steeles Ave. corridor for this development.

 

7.         City Council request the Town of Markham to request that the applicant provide further information to the City of Toronto on:

 

a.         the Traffic Impact Study and addendum dated August 2009 as contained in the Technical Services letter dated November 2, 2009 and contained in Attachment No. 7 to the report (April 6, 2010) from the Director, Community Planning, North York District; and

 

b.         the Functional Servicing Report and addendum dated August 2009 as contained in the Technical Services letter dated November 2, 2009 and contained in Attachment No.7 to the report (April 6, 2010) from the Director, Community Planning, North York District.

 

8.         City Council direct Planning Staff to report to North York Community Council on any further revisions to the subject application.

2.         City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment as may be required.

 

3.         City Council direct the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning to consider the redesignation of the Provincial Campus from Mixed Use Areas to Institutional Areas within the context of the five-year municipal comprehensive review of the City’s Official Plan.

 

4.         City Council require the Province to fund and/or provide the identified transportation network/road improvements as outlined in the Technical Services Memorandum dated April 19, 2010 (Attachment 6 to the report dated April 19, 2010 from the Director, Community Planning, North York District), at no cost to the City of Toronto.

 

5.         City Council require the Province to develop and implement, within 12 months of the enactment of the By-law, in conjunction with City staff and the assistance of a TDM consultant, a TDM strategy/plan that would minimize the impact of the proposed campus’ trip generation and parking by implementing a strategic plan with a focus on multi-modal transportation planning, demand management program, and stakeholder outreach.

 

6.         City Council require the Province to appoint a permanent full time on-site Transportation Demand Management (TDM) coordinator to manage, monitor and implement the approved TDM strategy for the entire Provincial Campus.

 

7.         To address the requirement for sustainable transportation impact mitigation measures, including better transit accessibility and connectivity, City Council require the Province to provide $250,000 to the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) to fund the procurement of a consultant to work with the TTC, City staff and the Province to prepare a feasibility study for a potential bus rapid transit route along:

 

 i.         Keele Street – from the proposed Finch West and/or Sheppard West subway stations on the Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension; or

 

ii.         Wilson Avenue – from the Wilson subway station.

 

8.         City Council determine that since the applicant is ORC acting on behalf of the Province of Ontario, the City’s standard requirements for indemnification, and financial security in the form of letters of credit and deposits will not be required, but that the following requirements will be imposed on the approval of the Draft Plan of Subdivision for the Provincial Campus, or any related municipal infrastructure or other servicing agreements as may be required by the City:

 

i.          all development, and any new municipal infrastructure and relocated municipal infrastructure, will be constructed in accordance with the City’s standards;

13.       City Council direct that any parking structure located above-ground at 1201 Wilson Avenue shall be subject to design control as permitted under the City of Toronto Act and shall be subject to review by the City's design review panel.

Speaker Bussin ruled that the recommendation of the Scarborough Community Council concerns matters which are seized by the Executive Committee because the debate that took place at Scarborough Community Council was, for all intents and purposes, a debate about wind turbines and not about the broader topic of land use along the Scarborough waterfront.  Accordingly, Item SC34.25 was ruled out of order.

Rulings (City Council)
Ruling by Speaker Sandra Bussin (Upheld)
During Council's review of the Order Paper, Speaker Bussin advised Council of the following:

Several Members have contacted me about Item SC34.25 and asked me to rule on whether this item is properly before us given the Executive Committee's consideration of a similar item at its April 19 meeting.

Here are the facts. On April 19, 2010, the Executive Committee considered EX43.24, a communications in the form of a motion from Councillors Ainslie and Ashton headed "Renewable Energy in The City of Toronto".

Councillors Ainslie and Ashton recommended that City Council request the Province to impose a moratorium on wind turbines pending a detailed study of their health effects. The Executive Committee referred the motion to Director, Toronto Environment Office, with direction to report back to the Executive Committee once Toronto Hydro has collected and analyzed wind energy data from its anemometer at the appropriate time, on how the City can promote, support and nurture energy conservation and green energy projects including off-shore wind in Lake Ontario.

Then, on April 27, the Scarborough Community Council considered the Item before you today. The Community Council is recommending that City Council request the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario not to industrialize any Federal/Provincial Crown Lands and/or adjacent waterways along the Scarborough Bluffs, waterfront or escarpment.

I have reviewed the matter carefully including a review of the video recording of the Scarborough Community Council meeting. At that meeting the Chair clearly instructed both Councillors and deputants that any motions or debate concerning a wind turbine moratorium would be out of order as the matter was seized by Executive Committee.

I am ruling that this Item is out of order in its current form and that it requires a two-thirds vote to remove item EX43.24 from the Executive Committee before it can be debated here. More specifically, I am ruling that the recommendations before us skirt the rules of procedure concerning matters seized by another committee and that the debate that took place at Scarborough Community Council was, for all intents and purposes, a debate about wind turbines and not about the broader topic of land use along the Scarborough waterfront.

I base this on my review of the debate, the correspondence submitted to the Community Council and the representations made by deputants. If I were to rule that this item in in-order, I would have to rule, as Chair Del Grande did, that any mention of wind turbines was off-limits during our debate.

I predict that we would then proceed with a debate in which speakers use the word "industrialization" whenever they meant "wind turbine" to stay on side of that ruling.

While it might be understood to those close to the issue what is really being debated, it would be disingenuous to the public to conduct a debate in that fashion, and would be a discredit to this Chamber.

The Council Procedures provide a remedy for those who are frustrated by the actions of the Executive Committee in referring this matter for further study. That is, a Member may place a motion to remove the matter from Executive Committee for debate. I will entertain such a motion.

That is my ruling.
