Participatory Budgeting 2025 Results

Congratulations to everyone who participated in Participatory Budgeting 2025!

This year, we focused on three clusters of neighbourhoods in Toronto-Centre: Cluster 1 (Bay Cloverhill, Church Wellesley, Upper Jarvis and Bloor East), Cluster 5 (St. Lawrence) and Cluster 6 (Canary District, Corktown and Distillery District). After a feasibility and costing review was done by staff and our office, 15 capital ideas were put forward to go through the voting phase by residents of participating neighbourhoods, and we now have the results.

Cluster 1 (Bay Cloverhill, Church Wellesley, Upper Jarvis and Bloor East): Three projects were feasible, and two supported projects will be advancing to City Council for approval in 2026.
Cluster 5 (St. Lawrence Neighbourhood): Seven projects were feasible and all will be advancing to the next stage of City Council for approval in 2026.
Cluster 6 (Canary District, Corktown, and Distillery District): Six projects were feasible, and all will be advancing to the next stage of the City Council for approval in 2026.

My office will be working with City staff to bring motions to properly fund the winning projects to a future City Council meeting. Thank you to everyone who participated! Please look forward to further updates on these projects. We will not be running Participatory Budgeting in 2026 due to the municipal election, but we hope we can bring it back in the future!

Reports for each neighbourhood cluster will be published shortly on each project page.
