A Win for Etobicoke Residents

updated June 26, 2025

Toronto City Council has approved a motion that will allow low-rise sixplexes in a nine wards.

Ward 3 is thankfully not one of those nine.

Kudos to the Coalition of Etobicoke Residents Associations for their significant teamwork in influencing this result.

A Toronto City Council meeting on June 25, 2025 resulted in significant decisions regarding multiplex housing development in the city, with two major items being debated and adopted with amendments.

The meeting represented a significant step in Toronto’s housing policy evolution, though the compromise on sixplexes highlighted the ongoing tensions between housing needs and neighborhood concerns across different areas of the city.

Staff initially recommended that councillors permit sixplexes in detached residential buildings in low-rise residential neighbourhoods city-wide.

However, during Wednesday’s City Council meeting, not all councillors supported the recommendation.

Many councillors had been influenced by the diligent legwork of residents’ associations. Especially the Coalition of Etobicoke Residents’ Associations (CERA).

Councillor Holyday trumpeted to the Planning and Housing Committee (PHC) that CERA's 1100+ respondents to its survey, significantly "out-surveyed" Planning's (which only received about 200 respondents).

Before the meeting on June 25, CERA reached out to every Councillor for a meeting and spoke with many.

The collaboration of CERA, SUN and FONTRA tag-teamed with Councillors Kandavel and Holyday to create and distribute an Open Letter to City Council, subsequently signed and digitally sent by 54 Residents Associations across Toronto! 

Coun. Gord Perks, who is the chair of the PHC, then put forward a motion that would permit sixplexes only in the downtown Toronto and East York wards and in Scarborough North, where a pilot program was already in place. The remaining wards have the option to join later.

“I’m moving this very reluctantly,” Perks said while presenting his motion.
