Welcome to TorontoCityCouncil.ca

Toronto City Council decided to change the way in which residential garbage is collected. Under the proposed system residents will have the option of selecting one of 4 different garbage bins. The new system will result in what amounts to an additional 2.8 per cent tax increase, over an above the existing 3.8 per cent property tax increase this year. The tax is regressive and will disproportionately affect families and residential neighbourhoods.

Those that voted in favour: 26 Those that were opposed: 18
