but even that wasn't the full extent of what i'm referencing. for your reading enjoyment and pleasure:

"Recommendation:

That Executive Committee recommend to City Council:

That Administration proceed with the start-up strategy as outlined in Attachment 1 of the January 20, 2015, Sustainable Development report CR_1708, to establish a municipally owned and controlled for-profit land development corporation to focus on City-building initiatives in addition to earning profits, and return to City Council with the following by the end of the second quarter of 2015:

a) A detailed list of City land assets that could be transferred to a municipal
development corporation and an analysis of the financial and other costs and benefits to the City and to the corporation for each proposed transfer.

b) A detailed business plan showing projected cash flows for a municipal
development corporation, and proposed funding sources and requirements for the corporation’s operating and capital costs for its first three years.

c) A draft application to the Minister of Municipal Affairs requesting approval to establish a for-profit municipally controlled land
development corporation.

d) A budget adjustment of up to $2 million for start-up costs to be brought forward for consideration as part of the Spring Operating Supplementary Budget Adjustment
