The Executive Committee recommends that:
1. City Council maintain the remaining funds contained in the Lands Acquisition Fund under the School Lands Acquisition Framework so that they may be accessed for an appropriate purchase in the future.
2. City Council request the Executive Director, Social Development, Finance and Administration and the General Manager, Parks, Forestry and Recreation to reassess the City's interest in the Toronto District School Board's Midland/Lawrence redevelopment site (Bendale Business and Technical Institute, David and Mary Thomson Collegiate Institute) and report to the February 4, 2014 Executive Committee.
Origin
Summary
This report provides information about the anticipated impact of the Toronto District School Board’s three year 2013-2016 Capital Plan. The Capital Plan involves the sale of eight TDSB properties, four of which are closed surplus schools and the remaining four land severances. This report identifies the potential impacts on local community access to green space and recreational and other community facilities. This report also provides an update on the School Lands Acquisition Framework.
Council authorized funding from the Land Acquisition Reserve Fund (LARF) in the amount of $7 million, $5 million and $3 million in each of the years 2011, 2012 and 2013 respectively to help fund school land acquisitions that have been identified as a priority for the City. The Framework specifies that its dedicated funds in the LARF should be accessed only when there are no other sources of funding (for example, Parkland Acquisition Local Reserve Funds) that can be accessed for acquisition of a school property.
$5.942 million from the designated LARF funding of $15.0 million was authorised by Council for the purchase of land at Timothy Eaton for the development of a community hub. This report recommends that the remaining designated funds of $9.058 million be maintained in order to purchase future properties deemed to be high priority under the framework and for which no other source of funding is available.
