Our Encampment Dashboard provides updates encampments in parks, how we’re managing them, and outlines City’s new encampment protocol.
Encampment Protocol & Micro Shelters
Toronto now has a new Encampment Protocol with a multi-divisional approach to respond to the complex needs of those living outdoors.
Delivering Cleaner & More Vibrant Neighbourhoods
There are several improvement and beautification projects underway.
Rental Demolition Compensation – Closing the Gap
In 2023, over 50% of rental units approved for demolition and replacement across the city were in Toronto Centre.
Maximum Temperatures in Residential Units
A common complaint is that City bylaws are not sufficiently responsive to climate change and encourage landlords to keep the heat on unnecessarily.
Downtown East Action Plan – Refresh
Since the end of the pandemic, residents have had real concerns about the condition of our Downtown East, including public drug use, encampments, homelessness, unclean laneways and sidewalks, graffiti, broken windows, break-ins, public intoxication, used needles, and a noticeable lack of visible enforcement.
More Traffic Wardens
Spanning Downtown, the Financial District, Queens Quay, and the Jarvis corridor, gridlock can be at its most acute in our Ward, especially at intersections near the Gardiner on- and off-ramps at rush hour.
2024 Neighbourhood Town Halls
I'm proud to once again be coming back to our community for this year's Neighbourhood Town Hall series!
Toronto Centre Encampment Update
Over the course of the summer we have seen encampments pop up in parks across Toronto Centre. I wanted to provide an update in response to the concerns I have heard and the questions about what can be done to make our parks accessible to everyone.
In the Ward: McGill-Granby and Church-Wellesley Village
Every month, my team and I visit a different neighborhood in Ward 13 to listen and see the concerns residents have shared with me firsthand, as part of my mission to build vibrant and inclusive communities in Toronto Centre.
