1c Core Service Review - Revising the Timeframe to achieve the City's Tree Canopy Goals (Item PE17.1)
Origin
(November 9, 2012) Letter from the Parks and Environment Committee
Summary

The purpose of this report is to respond to City Council's request that a review of the Urban Forestry Service Plan be conducted and that a report with recommended changes to extend the timeframe to achieve the City's tree canopy goals be submitted to the Parks and Environment Committee.  This report presents a revised financial strategy which when implemented, will contribute to the achievement of a healthy, diverse and sustainable urban forest.

 

The consolidated funding proposed takes into consideration the financial pressures resulting from the management of the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), and will extend the timeframe to implement the Service Plan by seven (7) years, from 2016 to 2023.  From 2013 to 2019 resources will be diverted to manage EAB.  Focus on implementing the Service Plan will begin in 2017 as EAB subsides.  This funding strategy will enable Urban Forestry to maintain the 2011 service levels for the next four years while providing Urban Forestry with the resources to implement the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) strategy. 

 

This report also responds to Parks and Environment Committee's request that staff report back on replenishing or adding money to the Environment Protection Reserve Fund – Tree Canopy Allocation XR1718.  The Environment Protection Reserve Fund was established to provide one-time funding only, towards enhancement and protection of the City's tree canopy.  Urban Forestry does not have the means to replenish the Environment Protection Reserve Fund.

Financial Impact

See table in the staff report for financial information.

 

The Consolidated Funding Plan is a combination of the EAB funding plan and the revised Service Plan. The Consolidated Funding Plan requires $7.2 million less in funding from 2013 onwards when compared to the original Service Plan approved by Council in 2008 ($231.1 million vs. $238.3 million).

 

The Consolidated Funding Plan, as outlined in Figure 1 below, includes $48 million in reserve funding from the Environment Protection Reserve Fund (XR1718) approved in 2008 and $61.3 million in one-time funding for which the funding source is yet to be identified.  The Consolidated Funding Plan also requires $152.4 million in base budget property tax funding and results in an incremental increase in property tax funding of $17.6 million phased in over 10 years reaching the total additional base funding requirement of $22 million in 2023.

Origin
(April 27, 2012) Letter from the Budget Committee
Summary

Each year, all City of Toronto agencies, boards, commissions and divisions are given upfront economic indicator driven adjustments to their base budgets before being required to meet any Council-adopted budget reduction targets.

 

Applicant agencies under the Community Partnership and Investment Program (CPIP) face many of the same economic pressures in providing services to residents of the City of Toronto as any agency, board, commission or division.

 

This Motion is urgent as Budget proposal guidelines must be delivered to City Divisions and Toronto Public Health as soon as possible.

1g Toronto Public Health - Budget Adjustment to the 2013 Operating Budget Request (Item HL18.7)
Origin
(November 19, 2012) Letter from the Board of Health
Summary

Toronto Public Health (TPH) receives 100 percent funding from the Ministry of Children and Youth Services (MCYS) to deliver the Healthy Babies Healthy Children (HBHC) program.  In 2011, the Ministry initiated a review of the HBHC Protocol.  Completion of this review will result in a number of changes to the program, including the introduction of a new screening tool in 2013.  Additional on-going base funding is being provided to health units to support roll-out and completion of this new screening tool.  In October 2012, the Ministry informed TPH that new on-going base funding for three and one-half (3.5) new full time equivalent Public Health Nurse (PHN) positions will be provided to support implementation of this new tool. This report seeks approval for a budget adjustment to the TPH 2013 Operating Budget Request to reflect this new funding.

Financial Impact

The Ministry of Children and Youth Services is fully funding a base increase of $350,000 to the HBHC program for three and one-half (3.5) new full time equivalent public health nurse positions.

 

The Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer has reviewed this report and concurs with the financial impact information.

1h Toronto Public Health - Nourishing Young Minds - A Review of the Student Nutrition Program in Toronto (Item HL15.3)
Origin
(July 11, 2012) Letter from the Board of Health
Summary

This report highlights key elements of a review of the Student Nutrition Program, Nourishing Young Minds.  Toronto Public Health conducted the collaborative review to examine how the City of Toronto can maximize the benefits derived from its investment in Toronto programs, while also strengthening program sustainability.

 

The recommendations from the review emphasize the best practice elements featured in the program structure in Toronto, as identified through comparison with international models.  It proposes strategies to strengthen the sustainability of student nutrition programs that currently receive municipal grant funding, and recommends that a long-term funding strategy be developed to expand funding over time to schools that would benefit from having a student nutrition program.

Financial Impact

An additional $247,616 will be required for 2013 to offset the inflationary impact of increased food costs in programs currently receiving municipal grant funding.  This recommended cost of living adjustment of $247,616 would bring the student nutrition program base budget of $3,819,580 within the Toronto Public Health Operating Budget to $4,067,196 and is subject to the 2013 Operating Budget process.

 

Focus of Investment

Recommendation

Net Increase

Existing Programs - Cost of Living Adjustment for two years for increased cost of nutritious foods

Provide an increase for all existing programs, based on the compounding effect of two years of food cost increases: 2011 (4.6%) and 2012 (preliminary 1.8%) Nutritious Food Basket surveys for Toronto (note: no 2011 cost of living adjustment was provided in the 2012 budget process)

Endorse additional municipal funds of $247,616, to cover increased food costs, noting that the municipal grant funding for Student Nutrition Programs is meant for improving access to nutritious foods.

 

$247,616

 

Total net increase recommended

$247,616

 

New recommended base budget:

$3,819,580 + $247,616

 

$4,067,196

 

The Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer has reviewed this report and concurs with the financial impact information.

1i Toronto Public Health - Student Nutrition Program 2013 Operating Budget Request and Proposed Five Year Plan (Item HL16.5)
Origin
(September 24, 2012) Letter from the Board of Health
Summary

This report outlines a request for municipal Student Nutrition Program funding for the 2013 Operating Budget and proposes a plan for increasing City investment over the next five years to stabilize existing programs and increase the number of breakfast meals served to participating children/youth in higher needs schools.

 

The City cannot accomplish program sustainability on its own.  However, increasing the municipal investment will provide a strong signal to the provincial and federal governments and private sector partners that the City is committed to optimizing the full potential of Student Nutrition Programs to make a significant contribution to the nutritional health of children and youth. 

 

The proposed plan calls for increased core funding by municipal, provincial and federal governments and the private sector. 

Financial Impact

The Toronto Public Health (TPH) 2012 Approved Operating Budget includes funding of $3,819,580 gross and net for Student Nutrition Programs. This report recommends an additional allocation of $1,257,416 in 2013 for a total of $5,076,996 in the 2013 Operating Budget request.

 

The report also recommends the approval, in principle, of a proposed five year funding plan for program stabilization that will need to be reviewed and updated on an annual basis for consideration in future budget processes.  As per the proposed 2013-2017 multi-year strategy and plan (as outlined on Page 9 of this report), the City would increase the 2012 base funding of $3,819,580 by $1,257,416 in 2013, $1,289,116 in 2014, $1,127,711 in 2015, $1,189644 in 2016 and $1,254,279 in 2017 to a total of $9,937,746 at the end of five years. 

 

Focus of Investment in 2013

Recommendation

Net Increase

Existing Municipally Funded Programs - Cost of Living Adjustment for two years for increased cost of nutritious food

 

Endorse additional municipal funds of $247,616, to cover two years of increased food costs based on the 2011 (4.6%) and 2012 (1.8%) Nutritious Food Basket surveys for Toronto (note: no 2011 cost of food adjustment was provided in the 2012 operating budget)

Note: This request has already been put forward for consideration in the 2013 operating budget process.

$247,616

Existing Municipally Funded Programs - Stabilization

 

Endorse additional municipal funds of $764,007 to cover 11.5% of total program costs, to assist existing programs in increasing their number of operating days, which will increase the number of  breakfast meals served in the school year to participating students.  This is the first year of a five year plan to increase municipal investment.

$764,007

Existing Programs with Only Provincial Funding - Stabilization

(Extend municipal funding to 25 programs in higher need elementary schools that currently only receive provincial funding)

Endorse additional municipal funds of $245,793, at a 11.5% contribution rate, to bring 25 elementary school programs with 7,529 participating students to the same level of municipal funding as other existing programs, and allow the programs to increase the number of breakfast meals served

$245,793

 

Total net increase recommended

1k Toronto Public Health - Building on the Coroner's Pedestrian Death Review (Item HL17.1)
Origin
(October 22, 2012) Letter from the Board of Health
Summary

On September 19, 2012 the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario released a review of all pedestrian deaths that occurred in the province during 2010. The review characterized the victims and the drivers, described when, where, and how deaths were most likely to occur, and outlined factors that contributed to the deaths of the pedestrians.

 

The Coroner affirmed that all pedestrian deaths are preventable and outlined strategies to enhance pedestrian safety. The report recommends that the Province develop a Walking Strategy for Ontarians, including policies, practices and plans to support safe and convenient walking environments for everyone. As well, the report recommends that municipalities regularly review collision data and adopt a "Complete Streets" approach to guide redevelopment and new development. The Coroner specifically highlighted the role of vehicle speed in pedestrian fatalities and identified strategies for speed reduction.

 

The Coroner's review also found that the number of deaths among seniors greatly outweighs the percent of seniors in the population, and identified the need to make roads safer for all vulnerable pedestrians, including seniors, people with disabilities, and children.

 

Taking action to improve pedestrian safety not only saves lives, it also reduces injury rates and encourages people to be more physically active. Physical activity is known to reduce rates of chronic disease such as heart disease and diabetes. Toronto has undertaken many initiatives to improve pedestrian safety. However, the Coroner’s report highlights further opportunities for Toronto to improve pedestrian safety, including implementing additional measures to slow driver speeds and specifically considering the needs of seniors when designing roads and pedestrian areas.

Financial Impact

There are no financial implications arising from the adoption of this report.

1o Auditor General’s Office - 2013 Budget (Item AU9.3)
Origin
(October 25, 2012) Letter from the Audit Committee
Summary

This report provides information relating to the 2013 budget for the Auditor General’s Office and a budget for approval by the Audit Committee.

 

An analysis of the budget request is as follows:

 

 

2013 Budget Request

2012 Approved Budget

Increase           %

Budget

$4,295,200  

$4,271,400

$23,800           0.6    

 

The proposed budget contains audit fees payable to PricewaterhouseCoopers in the amount of $349,900 relating to the external financial audit of the City’s Financial Statements.  The Auditor General has no control over the external audit fees paid as the amount is pre-determined based on a Council approved contract.  For the 2013 external financial audit, fees increased from $328,200 to $349,900 an increase of $21,800.  This amount is included in the total Auditor General’s budget increase of $23,800.

 

In relation to the Budget of the Auditor General’s Office, three separate reviews are underway which may have an impact on the Auditor General’s 2013 budget.  These reviews are as follows:

 

In April 2009, City Council approved a report entitled “A Policy Framework for Toronto Accountability Officers”.  One of the recommendations contained in the report directs that:

 

“City Council authorize the City Manager and Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer, in consultation with the accountability officers, to review and research best practices respecting setting aside a percentage of the City’s budget for Toronto’s accountability functions and report back to Executive Committee.

 

This report is available at: http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2009.EX31.1

 

On June 14, 2011 City Council approved a report entitled “Auditor General’s Office 2011 Budget” and made the following recommendations:

 

City Council request the City Manager to review, and report to the Audit Committee on October 20, 2011, on the operations of each one of the internal audit functions that report to management, and ascertain whether there may benefits to consolidating those functions, such a review to consider the reporting structure particularly in the context of ensuring that all functions are able to operate independently from management.

 

City Council request that, during the review, the City Manager review the level of resources for each entity in order to ensure that levels are commensurate with responsibilities and make recommendations for reallocation of staff if appropriate.  In consultation with the Auditor General, such a reallocation give consideration to the resource requirements of the Auditor General’s Office.”

 

This report is available at: http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2011.AU2.5

 

The above reports remain outstanding and as a result at its meeting of February 29, 2012 the Audit Committee reaffirmed its earlier requests as follows:

 

“City Council authorize the City Manager and the Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer, in consultation with the Accountability Officers, to review and research best practices respecting setting aside a percentage of the City’s budget for Toronto’s accountability functions and report to Executive Committee.

 

City Council request the City Manager to review, and report to the Audit Committee on October 25, 2012, on the operations of each one of the internal audit functions that report to management both in City Divisions and the ABCs, and ascertain whether there may be benefits to consolidating those functions, such a review to consider the reporting structure particularly in the context of ensuring that all functions are able to operate independently from management.

 

City Council request that, during the review, the City Manager review the level of resources for each entity in order to ensure that levels are commensurate with responsibilities and make recommendations for reallocation of staff if appropriate.  In consultation with the Auditor General, such a reallocation give consideration to the resource requirements of the Auditor General’s Office.”

 

These reports continue to be outstanding.

 

Financial Impact

The 2013 budget for the Auditor General’s Office is $4,295,200 which is $23,800 more than the 2012 final approved budget of $4,271,400.  While it is possible that the reviews of the City’s audit functions being conducted by the City Manager could impact the Auditor General’s budget, it is expected that any amendments would be proposed for future budgets.

 

The proposed budget contains audit fees payable to PricewaterhouseCoopers in the amount of $349,900 relating to the external financial audit of the City’s Financial Statements.  The Auditor General has no control over the external audit fees paid as the amount is pre-determined based on a Council approved contract.  For the 2013 external financial audit, fees increased from $328,200 to $349,900 an increase of $21,800.  This amount is included in the total Auditor General’s budget increase of $23,800.

 

Without the increase of the PricewaterhouseCoopers fees the budget of the Auditor General’s Office would have increased by only $2,000 (0.1 per cent).

 

The budget request is as follows:

 

 

2013 Budget Request

2012 Approved Budget

Increase          %

Budget

$4,295,200  

$4,271,400

$23,800           0.6    

 

The majority of the Auditor General’s 2013 budget request consists of salaries and benefits.  If the amount of $349,900 for external audit fees is excluded from the budget of the Auditor General’s Office, the percentage of the salaries and benefits to the total budget is just under 97 per cent.

 

The Auditor General’s Office currently has two vacancies which were gapped in 2012 and will continue to be gapped in 2013.  Two additional vacancies occurred in 2012 due to the retirement of two incumbents.  The remainder of positions are filled.

 

Continued gapping to the budget of the Auditor General’s Office will have a future impact on the number of reports produced by the office and will increase the backlog of audit projects.  In addition, it may impact the operation of the Fraud and Waste Hotline Program managed by the Auditor General’s Office.

1x Toronto Police Service - 2013-2022 Capital Program Request
Origin
(November 23, 2012) Report from the Chair, Toronto Police Services Board
Summary

The purpose of this report is to provide the Budget Committee with the Toronto Police Service’s (Service’s) 2013-2022 Capital Program request.

Financial Impact

Table 1 below provides a summary of the Service’s 2013-2022 Capital Program request compared to the City of Toronto’s ten-year affordability debt target.

 

The Service’s 2013-2022 Capital Program request is below the City’s affordability debt target by $2.7 Million (M) for the first five years of the program, and $0.3M for the ten-year program.  Additional detail on debt-funded and Reserve-funded projects can be found in Attachments A and B respectively, contained in Appendix A.

 

 Table 1.  Summary of 2013-2022 Capital Program Request ($Ms)

 

(See Table 1 referred to above, in the report dated November 23, 2012,

from the Chair, Toronto Police Services Board)

 

The implementation of capital projects can have an impact on the Service’s on-going operating budget requirements.  In addition, the Service is continuing its strategy to properly fund the replacement of vehicles, technology and other equipment through contributions to the Vehicle and Equipment Reserve (Reserve).  Attachment C, contained in Appendix A, provides a summary of the estimated operating impact from capital excluding Reserve funded projects.  The 2013 operating impact is $0.9M.  Approval of the 2013-2022 program, as requested, will result in an estimated annualized pressure to the Service’s operating budget of $3.8M by 2022, mainly due to system maintenance and building operational requirements.  These operating impacts will be included in future operating budget requests, as required.

Origin
(November 19, 2012) Letter from the Executive Committee
Summary

As part of 2012 Capital Budget deliberations, Council requested that the Deputy City Manager and  Chief Financial Officer report back through the appropriate Standing Committee in the first quarter of 2012 on the merits of Sustainable Energy loans to non-City agencies and the private sector.

 

Current market conditions are considered suitable for energy related projects with positive returns to be financed without support of SEF interest free loans. It is being recommended that future funding for the City's energy projects be provided from recoverable debt as approved in the annual Capital Budget process for the City's agencies and divisions, with repayment from resulting operating program energy savings or revenue generation. No further loans would be approved for entities external to the City.  It is proposed that the Sustainable Energy Reserve Funds be made available to fund the City's Tree Canopy capital program, which is experiencing rising costs due to the Emerald Ash Borer infestation.

1ab Toronto Public Library - 2012 - 2013 Capital Budget Adjustments
Origin
(December 3, 2012) Report from the City Librarian
Summary

The purpose of this report is to seek approval of budget adjustments to capital projects for consideration during the 2013 budget process that include cash flow acceleration and deferral and that do not affect the annual debt funding level approved by Council.

 

These budget adjustments are required to address additional 2012 cash flow requirements for the Toronto Reference Library (TRL) renovation project.

Financial Impact

A total cash flow acceleration from 2013 to 2012 of $1,500,000 gross funding ($997,000 debt and $503,000 third party) is required to allow the Toronto Reference Library construction to continue uninterrupted.  A deferral of $997,000 gross and debt cash flow from 2012 to 2013 from the Fairview project, which is projected to remain unspent by year-end, would offset the debt funding advanced.

 

(See table under Financial Impact, in the report dated

December 3, 2012 from the City Librarian)

 

There is no net impact on the Council approved annual debt levels and no change in the total approved capital budget funding. As a result of these adjustments, the 2012 gross funding increases from $24,154,190 to $24,657,190. The requested gross funding for 2013 of $33,297,000 is reduced to $32,794,000.

 

The Director, Finance and Treasurer has reviewed this financial impact statement and is in agreement with it.

1ad Financial Strategy to Re-establish Original Time Lines for the Urban Forestry Service Plan
Origin
(December 10, 2012) Report from the General Manager, Parks, Forestry and Recreation
Summary

This report responds to City Council's request that a report be submitted to Budget Committee as part of the 2013 budget process to outline the financial requirements and resources required to re-establish the original time lines of the Urban Forestry Service Plan adopted in 2008 for tree maintenance and planting, as well as maintaining the planned capacity to manage the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) infestation. 

 

This report presents the financial plan that is required to build the necessary resources, both internal and external, to meet the tree canopy target timelines as set out in the Original Service Plan while managing the EAB infestation. This financial plan is referred to in this report as the "Re-established Service Plan."

Financial Impact

The Re-established Consolidated Funding Plan is a combination of the 2013 recommended EAB Funding Plan and the Re-established Service Plan. Re-establishing the Original Service Plan time lines will require $39.0 million more in property tax funding (from 2013-2023) than the approved Consolidated Funding Plan that was adopted by Council in November 2012, which extends the time frame to achieve the City's tree canopy goals by seven years (to 2023).

 

The Re-established Consolidated Funding Plan, as outlined in Figure 1 below, includes $48 million in reserve funding from the Environment Protection Reserve Fund (XR1718) approved in 2008 and $61.3 million in one-time funding (between 2013-2023) for which the funding source is yet to be identified.  A cumulative total of $181.3 million in property taxes is required between 2013 and 2023.

 

The financial impact of the Re-established Consolidated Funding Plan (Figure 1) compared to the approved Consolidated Funding Plan over the next 5 years is as follows:

 

-           2013 – no change

-           2014 – total incremental increase of $2.0 million

-     property tax funding increase of $2.0 million

-           2015 – total incremental increase of $5.4 million

-     property tax funding increase of $5.0 million

-     reserve fund increase of $0.4 million

-           2016 –total incremental increase of $9.7 million

-     property tax funding increase of $9.1 million

-     reserve fund increase of $0.6 million

-           2017 – total incremental increase of $10.1 million

-     property tax funding increase of $8.2 million

-     reserve fund increase of $1.9 million

Re-established Consolidated Funding Plan) under the Financial Impact

1ae 2013 Capital Budget and Cash Flow for Pan/Parapan American Games
Origin
(December 11, 2012) Report from the Acting Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer
Summary

This report presents recommendations to adjust the previously approved cash flow for Pan/Parapan American Games to be included in the 2013 Recommended Capital Budget.  There is no change in total project cost for the Pan/Parapan American Games.

Financial Impact

In December 2009, City Council approved the Capital Budget and future year commitments for the Pan/Parapan American Games in the amount of $49.5 million, fully funded by debt.  Subsequently, in February 2011, City Council approved three additional projects and additional city funding of $47 million ($23 million in reserve fund funding and $24 million in debt funding), for a total City investment of up to $96.5 million for nine Pan Am Games capital projects.

 

Since then, capital projects for Pan Am Games have been reviewed and adjusted during the annual budget process to reflect the revised cash flow and timelines.

 

The 2013 Recommended Capital Budget does not include any new projects or changes of scope to the previously approved projects.  It is entirely comprised of funding that has been approved in past years as future year commitments.  However, these commitments and cash flow have been revised to reflect the following changes:

 

1.         $0.110 million has been accelerated from future years into 2012 for the Nathan Phillips Square capital project to ensure that sufficient funding is available to complete this project in 2012; and

 

2.         cash flow has been revised for the Resurfacing of the Cycling Course capital project to ensure it is in line with the revised schedule provided by TO2015.

 

The revised cash flow for Pan/Parapan American Games capital projects requires Council approval.
