Toronto Transit Commission meeting resumes
at TTC headquarters, November 20



The Toronto Transit Commission will complete its agenda from Monday, November 18 during a public meeting tomorrow, Wednesday, November 20 at 1 p.m. in the TTC’s head office, 1900 Yonge Street above Davisville Station.

The board meeting adjourned Monday evening and will resume Wednesday afternoon and continue to hear deputations — or presentations — from the public about the TTC’s 2014 operating, Wheel-Trans and capital budgets.

A staff presentation on the budgets will follow the deputations. The commissioners will then consider and vote on each budget.

Toronto City Council will consider only the TTC’s requests for subsidy or funding for its operating and Wheel-Trans budgets and the full capital budget in January. Only the TTC board has authority to increase fares and make service changes.

(One of the items most attracting the interest of deputants is a TTC proposal to increase fares in January.)

A full schedule of deputations occupied much of the time that the Commission originally scheduled for its meeting in City Hall Monday and… oh, yeah, a little thing like that emergency City Council meeting to strip Mayor Rob Ford of much of his powers that day distracted those commissioners who were also City Councillors.


The Commission is the TTC’s board of directors. It oversees matters of policy and planning, building, maintaining and operating the TTC system and expanding its services and facilities.

Its members include City of Toronto Councillors and members of the public.
