1c - Core Service Review - Revising the Timeframe to achieve the City's Tree Canopy Goals (Item PE17.1)

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
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.

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
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.

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.

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.

(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.

1k - Toronto Public Health - Building on the Coroner's Pedestrian Death Review (Item HL17.1)

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
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.

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.

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
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.

Summary

The purpose of this report is to provide Council with the 2012 Capital Variance Report for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 as well as projected actual expenditures to December 31, 2012.  Furthermore, the report seeks Council’s approval for 2012 in-year budget adjustments.

 

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 totalled $1.412 million or 33.1% of the 2012 Approved Capital Budget of $4.260 billion (see Chart 1).  This spending pattern is consistent with prior years as City's capital activities tend to accelerate in the latter part of the year. As detailed by City Program and Agency in Appendix 1, actual expenditures to year-end are expected to reach $2.853 billion  or 67% of the total 2012 Approved Capital Budget; and 14 of 35 City Programs and Agencies project spending in excess of 70% of their respective 2012 Approved Capital Budget by December 31,  2012.

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
Origin
(January 2, 2013) Report from the Acting Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer
Summary

The purpose of this report is to provide Council with the City of Toronto Operating Variance for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 as well as year-end projections and to request Council's approval for amendments to the 2012 Operating Budget between Programs to ensure accurate reporting and financial accountability with no increase to the 2012 Approved Net Operating Budget.

 

For the nine-month period ending September 30, 2012, Tax Supported Operations' net expenditures were under-spent by $258.984 million or 9.9% of planned expenditures and projections indicate that the 2012 year-end net under-expenditure is anticipated to be $166.204 or 4.5%million of the 2012 Approved Net Operating Budget, after the Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer adjustments is accordance with Council's Surplus Management Policy.  The $166.204 or 4.5%million is largely driven by salary savings in City Operations, higher than budgeted TTC ridership and higher anticipated Non-Program Tax Revenues.

 

Rate Supported Programs were under-spent by $0.652 million or 0.9% compared to net planned expenditures for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 and project year-end under-spending of $5.586 million or 9.9% of the 2012 Approved Net Operating Budget, primarily driven by Toronto Water’s under-expenditure in salaries and benefits from delayed hiring of vacant positions.

 

Staff will report the final year-end financial results for 2012 in the spring of 2013 after the financial audit is completed. The Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer will allocate any final year-end favourable variance in accordance with the Council approved Surplus Management Policy.

Summary

On December 27, 2012, the Province through the Ministry of Community and Social Services (MCSS), announced:

 

A "One-time Grant Funding to Support the Transition to the Community Homelessness Prevention Initiative (CHPI)";

 

MCSS would provide an additional $42 million for the period January 2013 to March 2014 to Ontario municipal service managers;

 

Toronto's allocation would be $12.3 million ($9.8 million in 2013, $2.5 million in 2014);

 

Allocation of this funding was "based on each municipality's change in total funding for Housing and Homelessness supports in 2013-14";

 

Municipalities would have the flexibility to allocate these funds to meet the needs of the municipality with respect to housing and homelessness related supports and will be required to provide a plan for the Ministry's approval.

 

The Province also announced that guidelines regarding this one-time grant would be forthcoming later in January 2013. At the time of writing these guidelines had not been received.  This report provides an overview of how this one-time funding will be used in 2013 to support the City's transition to CHPI and reduce the impact of Provincial reductions in funding for City delivered housing and homeless services.

1aq - Provincial Municipal Infrastructure Investment Initiative (MIll) Capital Program

(Submitted for City Council Consideration on January 15, 2013)
Origin
(January 8, 2013) Letter from Councillor Mike Del Grande
Summary

In November 2012, Minister Chiarelli announced the Municipal Infrastructure Investment Initiative (MIll) Capital Program. The program permits municipalities to make an application for only one project, for a provincial contribution of up to $2 million. Although this is a modest amount given the City's ongoing need for infrastructure investment, the City needs to access all available provincial funding.

 

To access the provincial fund, the City must first submit an Expression of Interest for pre-screening to the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) by January 9, 2013. The City must also submit a Council resolution authorizing the submission of the Expression of Interest.

 

City staff have identified the following project for consideration under the MIII Capital Program, as it meets both Provincial criteria and City priorities.

 

Program Area – Transportation Services

Project Name - Galaxy Boulevard and Skyway Avenue / Major Road Resurfacing

Total Cost - $2.2 million

Description - Resurfacing of Galaxy Boulevard / Skyway Avenue
