TO City Council voted unanimously for the next TransformTO 5-year plan, a plan that was almost missing a critical policy to green existing buildings. Thanks to thousands of people speaking up & a motion from @PaulaFletcherTO the policy is back! More info: loom.ly/Uy1n1yE

With those additions, the TransformTO Net Zero update report is APPROVED 24-0. secure.toronto.ca/council/ag…

Now back to TransformTO. Fletcher moves a pair of motions. One is a request for a report on how recent changes to federal policies have impacted the city's environmental plans. The second calls for a report on ways to "exceed the projects for distributed energy resources."

Council is back from lunch. They're going to do a run-through of all the member motions, then vote on the luxury land transfer tax, then vote on the TransformTO update, then they'll be debating rooming houses. Get hyped.

On the TransformTO item, Councillor Dianne Saxe moves for a report on ways to reduce emissions from the gas plant in the port lands.

Up now: an update to the TransformTO Net Zero plan. Environmental advocates are concerned because the city is not on track to hit their 2040 net zero target, and staff are planning to backtrack on implementing emissions standards for buildings. secure.toronto.ca/council/ag…

With that, Council takes lunch. They'll return at 2 p.m. Rough sched for the rest of today: 1) Faster Finch 2) Max indoor temperature bylaw Tomorrow: 1) Luxury land transfer tax hike 2) TransformTO climate change plan 3) Rooming house bylaw update

The City of Toronto Transportation Services needs an ideological enema. The proliferation of ideologies that choke the free flow of goods and people under the guise of pretty names like TransformTO or Vision Zero or Net Zero must become a campaign issue in 2026. 🗳️

(2) The planned bus fleet electrification is counted as "SOGR" although it includes a major cost bump for technology change. The City's TransformTO proposal for much improved transit service is not funded at all. stevemunro.ca/2025/09/08/ttc…

Councillor Saxe's motion for a report on whether fossil fuel ads are consistent with Toronto's TransformTO goals FAILS 2-19.

Up now: fossil fuel ads on City property. Councillor Dianne Saxe moves for a report on whether accepting fossil fuel ads is consistent with City Hall's TransformTO goals. secure.toronto.ca/council/ag…

Geothermal drilling has officially wrapped up for the rental housing block at 50 Wilson Heights Boulevard! 🌱🏗️ Diverso Energy’s in-house drilling crew logged a combined depth of 130,000 linear feet of boreholes. Once operational, the geothermal system will eliminate 701 tons of CO₂ emissions per year — equivalent to removing 140 cars from the road — all while supporting @cityoftoronto TransformTO climate action goals. Up next: site excavation and building construction for this @GreenwinTALKS and @kingsettcapital development!

I wonder how we will look back at the city's TransformTO climate policy that has a goal of getting to net zero by 2040 like what a beautifully ambitious and delusional time

Geothermal drilling has officially begun at 50 Wilson Heights Blvd. — converting a City-owned surface parking lot into a mixed-use, transit-oriented community. Developed by @GreenwinTALKS, @kingsettcapital and @tridel, in partnership with the @cityoftoronto and CreateTO, this project will deliver 1,484 new homes, including 520 affordable rental units, a park, child care centre, community space and improvements to the public realm – all next to to the TTC's Wilson Subway Station. Aligned with the City of Toronto’s TransformTO climate action goals, 50 Wilson Heights Blvd. meets the Toronto Green Standard through its geothermal-powered design. Diverso Energy's system will serve the heating and cooling needs of the first buildings in the development, reducing their carbon footprint while also lowering energy consumption, water usage, and long-term maintenance costs. Swipe to see Diverso’s work underway as their crew guides a fleet of truck- and track-mounted rigs through the snow, drilling boreholes for the geothermal system that will power the future community.
