City Council Decision

City Council on July 4, 5, 6  and 7, 2017, adopted the following:

 

1.  City Council refuse the application for Official Plan Amendment at 25 Audley Street for the following reasons:

 

a.  the proposal is inconsistent with the Provincial Policy Statement;

 

b.  the proposal conflicts with the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe;

 

c.  the proposal does not conform with the City of Toronto Official Plan, including policies related to but not limited to Built Form and Regeneration Areas which state that a development framework for the area will be developed and that development should not proceed prior to approval of a Secondary Plan; and

 

d.  the proposal does not conform with the Mimico-Judson Secondary Plan (Official Plan Amendment 331), adopted by City Council on June 7, 2016 and currently under appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board, and is not consistent with the Mimico-Judson Urban Design Guidelines.  In particular, the application, in its current form, does not conform with the following matters:

City Council Decision

City Council on July 4, 5, 6  and 7, 2017, adopted the following:

 

1.  City Council adopt the report (May 17, 2017) from the Ombudsman and in so doing, City Council request the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division to implement all of the Ombudsman's recommendations.

 

Ombudsman's Recommendations:

 

1.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should develop a clear, uniform process for local parks supervisors to follow when assessing applications for new facility uses in City parks. This process should:

 

i.  ensure that permit officers provide adequate information to local parks supervisors;

 

ii.  require that a record be kept of the information provided, the decision reached, and the reasons for that decision; and

 

iii.  be available to the public on Parks, Forestry and Recreation 's website.

 

2.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should develop an internal process to identify and handle suspected permit violations, which should include:

 

i.  basic investigation of alleged permit violations, including an opportunity for the permit holder to provide information; and

 

ii.  circumstances in which the assistance of Municipal Licensing and Standards should be requested, and how this request should be carried out.

 

3.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should consider the range of responses/penalties available to it in the case of a confirmed permit violation, and publish those on its website.

 

4.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should amend its Complaints Policy to:

 

i.  clarify that it applies not only to complaints about Parks, Forestry and Recreation service delivery, but to complaints about anything under Parks, Forestry and Recreation's authority; and

 

ii.  set out a simple and clear process for staff to follow in dealing with complaints, including the investigation process and the right of individuals affected to be heard.

 

5.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should develop a process to ensure, in any case where it is proposing to cancel, relocate or alter a permit for any reason, that:

 

i. it allows affected parties an opportunity to be heard; and

 

ii. it provides brief reasons for the decision to all affected parties.

 

6.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should ensure that its policies and processes for permit handling include appropriate requirements for record keeping, and should, in addition to specific requirements for record-keeping in those policies, establish requirements for when staff should document interactions and decisions involving members of the public.

 

7.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should develop a program to ensure all staff are trained on all policies and processes that apply to their work. Training records should be kept.

 

8.  Parks, Forestry and Recreation should report to Ombudsman Toronto quarterly on the status of the implementation of all of these recommendations, until Ombudsman Toronto is satisfied that implementation is complete.

CC31.3 - Ombudsman Toronto Report: An Investigation into the City's Process for Handling Development Charge Complaints and Education Development Charge Complaints

Decision Type:
ACTION
Status:
Adopted
Wards:
All

City Council Decision

City Council on July 4, 5, 6  and 7, 2017, adopted the following:

 

1.  City Council adopt the report (June 27, 2017) from the Ombudsman and in so doing, City Council request the Corporate Finance Division to implement all of the Ombudsman's recommendations.

 

Ombudsman's Recommendations:

 

Clarifying Authority to Screen Complaints

 

1.  In light of the questions raised by this Investigation, we recommend that staff from Corporate Finance ask legal counsel to conduct a fresh review of the screening practice (where staff decide whether or not a complainant should be granted a hearing), and to confirm that the practice is compliant with all relevant law, including the City of Toronto Act, the Development Charges Act, the Education Act, and the Statutory Powers Procedure Act.

 

Written Procedure for the Complaints Handling Process

 

2.  Staff from Corporate Finance should work with other relevant divisions to draft a written procedure to guide them in the administration of the development charge complaint process.

 

3.  Assuming staff's authority to screen complaints is confirmed pursuant to Recommendation 1, the written procedure should clearly set out the process they follow when determining whether or not to bring a matter forward to a hearing. The written procedure should include examples of matters that staff do and do not consider to fall within the three enumerated categories.

 

Written Procedure for Development Charge Complaint Hearings

 

4.  Staff from Corporate Finance should work with other relevant City divisions to set out a development charge complaint hearing procedure in writing. This procedure should include the following details:

 

- how complainants can present evidence, submit written arguments and/or make oral submissions;

 

- how and when complainants can access staff's written arguments (which are found in the staff report); and

 

- an overview of how the hearing is conducted.

 

In developing this written procedure, staff should also consider including information on what role, if any, the Statutory Powers Procedure Act plays in structuring these hearings.

 

Producing Public Information on Development Charge Complaints

 

5.  The City's website should include information on the process by which development charge complaints are handled. At a minimum, the City should post online the written procedure referenced in Recommendation 2.

 

6.  The website should also include a description of the hearing process before Executive Committee, and how parties can participate in the hearing. At a minimum, the City should post online the written procedure referenced in Recommendation 4.

 

7.  The information available online should also include the fact that complainants have a right of appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board.

 

Advising Complainants of their Hearing and Appeal Options in Writing

 

8.  In any case where there is a right to a hearing before Executive Committee, staff should advise the complainant, in writing, of this fact. This should happen even when staff is trying to negotiate a resolution.

 

9.  Staff should advise all complainants in writing of their right to appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board from the City's handling of their complaint.

 

Education Development Charge Complaints

 

10.  Staff from Corporate Finance should seek legal advice to ensure that all necessary delegations of authority are in place regarding education development charge complaints.

 

11.  The written procedure (from Recommendation 2) should clearly lay out the process staff follow when handling education development charge complaints, including the requirement to notify school boards about complaint hearings, and about the right of school boards to participate as parties to the hearing.

 

Example Complaint

 

12.  Corporate Finance should send a letter to Mr. D, apologizing for the conflicting information he was given about his right to a hearing before Executive Committee, and underscoring Corporate Finance's commitment to improving the system so that the process is clearer in the future.

 

Reporting Back

 

13.  Corporate Finance should report quarterly to Ombudsman Toronto on the implementation of these recommendations until implementation is complete.
