staff
to
record
attendance
for
the
meeting.
Although
we
are
meeting
in
different
locations
and

today,
the
community

would
like
to
acknowledge
that
the
land

on
is
the
traditional
territory
of
many
nations,
including
the
mississaugas
of
the
credit,
the
anishinaabe,
the
chippewa,
the
hot
nishoni
and
the
wendat
peoples,
and
is
now
home
to
many
diverse
first
nations
inuit

A
A
A

All
those
opposed.
I
will
let
you
know
that
there
is
a
mayor,
the
mayor
of
camera
court.
I
have
promised
him
that
we
will
do
an
official
ribbon
cutting
on
this
stop
sign
that
he
has
been
trying
to
get
to

years.
So

If
there's
no
other

okay,
we'll
move
to
a
vote
all
in
favor
all

I
don't
think
we're
having

Maybe
we

that
now,
since
we're

in
your
name.
A
A
A
A
A
I
understand
that
staff
have
a
presentation
on
the
golden
mile
secondary
plan,
we'll
go
to
the
staff
presentation,
we'll
then
move
to
deputies
and
then
we'll
go
back
to
questions
of
staff,
because
the
deputies
may
also
listening
to
them
may
also
raise
additional
questions
from
us.
I
will
say
that
I
am
ducking
out
in
about
five
minutes
for
about
half
an
hour.
We
will
be
in
the
very
capable
hands
of
vice

counselor

So
if
I
don't
pop
back
on
the
screen,
she
is
taking
over
and
we're
in
good
shape.
E
Good

community
council,
we
are
pleased
to
be
here
today
to
continue
the
public
meeting
on
the
golden

We
have
a
brief

for
you
today
regarding
the
changes
that
have
been
made
to
the

At
its
meeting
on
july,
17th
scarborough
community
council
commenced
a
statutory
public
meeting
on
official
plan.
Amendment
number
499.
What
I
will
be
calling
opa

from
here
on
in
including
the
draft
secondary
plan
for
golden
mile
community
council
deferred
its
decision
on
opa
499
and
directed
staff
to
further
consult
with
stakeholders
on
their
suggested
revisions
to
the
draft
secondary
plan
city.
F
From
august
to
early
october,
city
staff
have
reviewed
and
discussed
feedback
received
on
the
july
version
of
opa
499.
The
golden
mile
team
had
10
meetings
and
additional
discussions
with
stakeholders
who
provided
feedback.
The
meetings
and
discussions
were
focused
in
an
attempt
to
resolve
concerns
with
the
draft
secondary
plan
staff
have
carefully
considered
the
additional
input
and,
where
appropriate,
have
further
refined.
The
secondary
plan
policies
made
minor
changes
to
the
associated
maps
and
have
refined
the
golden
mile
urban
design
guidelines.
F
F
For
today's
meeting,
city
staff
have
provided
a
supplementary
report
which
is
intended
to
be
read
in
conjunction
with
the
final
report.
The
supplementary
report
provides
a
high
level
description
of
key
policy
refinements,
as
well
as
clarification
on
the
intent
of
certain
policies
that
may
have
been
misinterpreted.
F
Refinements
have
been
made
and
our
clarification
has
been
provided
on
the
following
sections
of
the
draft
secondary
plan,
districts
and
character,
areas,
land
use
and
density,
public
realm,
build
form,
housing,
mobility
and
implementation,
phasing
and
monitoring.
I
will
highlight
some
of
the
key
policy
refinements
and
provide
clarification
on
certain
policies
from
these
noted
sections
of
the
draft
secondary
plan
next
slide.
Please
amanda.
F
Policy
3.2.2
was
refined
to
provide
further
clarification
that
the
central
district
will
function
as
the
main
institutional,
social
and
cultural
hub.
However,
it
is
noted
that
community
service
facilities
will
be
located
throughout
the
plan
area
policy.
3.6
was
refined
to
clarify
that
an
enhanced
mid-rise
character
in
the
east
park
mid-rise
and
tall
building
community
is
intended
for
a
portion
of
eglinton
avenue
east
frontage
next
slide.
F
F
H
F
F
There
is
a
caveat,
though,
the
development
application
would
have
to
include
travel
demand
management
strategies,
demonstrating
that
the
additional
non-residential
uses
would
conform
with
mobility
policies
11.19
to
11.24
of
the
draft
secondary
plan.
Next
slide,
please
amanda
more
than
20
public
realm
policies
have
been
refined
since
july
to
provide
greater
clarity
and
or
flexibility,
including
an
addition
to
policy
6.3
to
ensure
that
any
public
street
adjacent
to
or
crossing
over
any
of
bell.
Canada's
major
telecommunication
infrastructure,
such
as

F
Regarding
the

streetscape,
improvements
has
been
refined
to
make
the
policy
intent
more
clear
from
a
process
and
implementation
perspective.
Minimum
part
sizes
had
been
included
in
the
july
version
of
the
draft
secondary
plan
policies.
6.13
to
6.20
have
been
refined
to
remove
the
minimum
part
sizes.
F
Finally,
clarification
was
also
provided
on
pops
publicly
privately
owned,
accessible
spaces,
public
art
and
green
notes.
Next
slide,
please
amanda
with
regard
to
why
built
form
parameters
were
included
in
the
secondary
plan
through
the
consultation
process,
some
stakeholders
sought
clarification
or
enhanced
policy
flexibility
on
various
policies
in
the
build
form
section.
There
was
also
the
general
question
as
to
why
specific
build
form
parameters
were
included
in
the
policies.
F
The
reason
is
that
we
need
to
establish
a
new
built
form
vision.
The
golden
mile
today
is
a
very
large
underutilized
area
that
will
be
transformed
into
a
connected,
accessible,
diverse,
complete
and
livable
new
mixed-use
community,
as
part
of
the
planning
framework
that
will
guide
this
transformation.
F
F
F
Since
july,
over
20
built
foreign
policy
refinements
have
been
made
to
accommodate
additional
flexibilities,
including
five
key
refinements,
as
shown
on
this
table,
setbacks
from
parks,
mid-rise,
building
height
tall
buildings,
step
back
totally
exploration,
distance
and
sunlight
refinements
have
also
been
made
to
policies
related
to
other
built
formatters
such
as
parking
and
parking
structures
active
at
grade
uses
outdoor
amenity
spaces
and
the
east
park
mid-rise
and
tall
building
community
character
area
next
slide.
Please
amanda.
F
It
should
be
noted
that
the
build
form
policies
were
developed
through
extensive
consultation
with
the
community
and
stakeholders.
The
policies
are
practical
and
achievable,
especially
in
the
context
of
how
the
many
of
how
many
larger
sites
there
are
in
the
plan
area,
which
have
greater
ability
to
accommodate
a
variety
of
building
types
and
build
form
configurations.
F
They
will
promote
design
excellence
while
ensuring
a
public
realm
and
build
form
vision
for
the
secondary
plan
area
is
achieved
with
clear,
yet
flexible,
build
form
directions
to
guide
development
applications.
The
policies
will
also
help
expedite
the
development
review
process
in
the
implementation
stage.
Next
slide.
Please
remember.
F
F
The
minimum
threshold
of
80
new
residential
units
is
included
to
help
ensure
that
the
unit
mix
requirements
do
not
limit
smaller
developments.
Policy
4.9
was
refined
to
clarify
that
operable
windows,
balconies
and
terraces
would
only
be
required
where
such
matters
are
compatible
with
adjacent
employment
uses,
as
demonstrated
in
accordance
with
policy
4.9
of
the
draft
secondary
plan.
Next
slide,
please
amanda.
F
The
draft
secondary
plan
identifies
the
required
transportation
infrastructure
to
support
the
anticipated
growth
in
the
golden
mile,
focusing
on
improving
access
and
balancing
modes
of
transportation
to
ensure
a
range
of
travel
choices
and
encourage
sustainable
travel.
Behavior.
The
mobility
policies
in
the
draft
secondary
plan
recognize
the
long-term
development
and
implementation
of
the
transportation
infrastructure.
F
F
Examples
of
such
improvements
include
the
potential
reconfiguration
and
extension
of
required
drive,
as
well
as
the
potential
realignment
of
thermos
road
policy.
11.8
pull
up
provides
flexibility
on
the
exact
alignment
and
design
of
the
street
network
that
is
recommended
to
improve
both
east-west
and
north-south
connectivity
through
the
golden
mile.
The
exact
street
network
will
be
determined
through
the
development
application
review
process
and
would
not
require
an
official
plan
amendment.
F
In
addition,
policy
5.6.9
of
the
official
plan
further
contemplates
that
minor
adjustments
to
these
features
do
not
require
an
amendment
to
the
official
plan.
The
combination
of
policy,
11.8
of
the
secondary
plan
and
policy
5.6.9
of
the
official
plan
provide
for
sufficient
flexibility
in
implementation.
F
These
hubs
can
vary

F
Policies,
13.16
to
13.18
reflect
that
the
transportation
network
will
develop
incrementally
over
the
next
20

The
refined
secondary
plan
has
addressed
numerous
comments
raised
by
stakeholders
in
the
plan
area.
The
refined
secondary

continues
to
provide
a
long-term
planning
framework
that
includes
flexibility
to
allow

The
draft
secondary

is
accompanied
by
revised
urban

guidelines
for

which
provide
detailed
guidance
to
assist

the
refined

has
regard
for
matters
of
provincial
interest

of

act.
It's
consistent

Thank
you,
emily
we'll
hold
the
questions
until
we
finish
with
the
deputies
and
we're
going
to
start
with
our
depletion.
So
we
have
19
deputing
just
to
remind
everyone
that
you
have
five
minutes
and
then,
after
the
five
minutes
we
will.
If
people
have
questions
for
you,
then
we'll
ask
the
questions
and
at
the
last
30
second
point
I
will
give
you
a
reminder
that
then,
please
wrap
up
when
the
time
is
up.
Our
first
speaker
is
larry
waltmore,
chairman
of
scarborough
community
renewal
organization,.
K
Great
thank
you.
Thank
you
lie
and
good
morning
counselors
my
name
is
larry
watmore.
I
am
the
president
of
the
scarborough
community
renewal
organization.
Scro
for
short,
scroll
is
an
organization
of
engaged
volunteers
that
works
to
connect,
promote
and
renew
scarborough,
so
it
can
be
strong
and
prosperous.
K
We
seek
to
renew
scarborough
on
multiple
fronts,
including
arts
and
culture,
the
natural
environment
and,
of
course,
opportunities
for
economic
prosperity.
Scroll
envisions
scarborough
as
a
complete
community,
providing
opportunities
for
residents
to
live,
work,
learn
and
play.
Ensuring
the
golden
mile
includes
an
appropriate
mix
of
residential
commercial
and
employment.
Spaces
will
benefit
the
new
residents
of
this
transformational
community
and
scarborough
as
a
whole.
K
I'd
like
to
start
by
thanking
councillor
thompson,
chair
of
the
city's
economic
and
community
development
committee
and
all
members
of
scarborough
community
council
and
city
staff,
for
standing
up
for
the
protection
and
development
of
employment
opportunities
in
the
golden
mile
in
our
deputation
to
community
council
in
july
and
our
further
submission.
In
august,
we
advocated
for
increasing
the
minimum
provision
of
non-residential
gross
floor
area
in
the
secondary
plan
from
10
percent
to
20
percent,
because
we
believe
this
is
in
the
public
interest.
K
K
Now
landowners
might
speak
about
the
short-term
uncertainty
that
kovac
may
have
on
office
and
commercial
markets,
but
scroll
wants
to
emphasize
that
the
golden
mile
secondary
plan
is
a
long-term
plan
that
provides
a
development
framework
covering
the
next
30
to
40
years.
As
such,
we
believe
that
council
should
not
be
swayed
by
short-term
thinking.
We
need
to
plan
for
the
long-term
prosperity
of
scarborough
residents
and
businesses.
K
Scroll
continues
to
be
encouraged
by
the
city's
decision,
not
to
permit
the
redesignation
of
general
employment
area
and
core
employment
area
lands
as
part
of
the
secondary
plan
process.
We
hope
the
city
remains
firm
on
this
and
does
not
permit
the
redesignation
of
employment
area
lands,
as
this
would
erode.
The
ability
of
the
golden
mile
to
become
a
complete
community
stro
also
supports
the
public
realm
requirements
or
an
enhanced
street
streetscape
along
eglinton
avenue
in
the
early
phases
of
the
development,
with
public
art
requirements
and
community
spaces
throughout
the
development
plan.
J
C
Please
it
went
up
really
quickly.
Thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
through
you
to
mr
whitmore.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
presentation,
you're
suggesting
to
us
at
this
point.
As
a
result
of
the
deferral,
there's
been
an
opportunity
for
staff
to
work
with
landowners
and,
of
course,
grow
as
well
to
refine
some
of
the
concerns.
K
Sorry,
that's
correct,
I
don't
know
if
you
were
finished
counselor,
yes,
yeah
just
yeah,
okay,
yes!
Well.
We
had
the
opportunity,
of
course,
to
provide
further
input
in
august
when
staff
were
canvassing
all
the
deputies
for
for
additional
for
additional
information,
and
we
were
happy
to
participate
in
that
process.
C
And
are
you
aware,
as
to
the
work
that
has
been
taking
place
regarding
community
benefits,
to
ensure
that
employment
opportunities
will
be
provided
to
residents
in
the
area
in
scarborough
and,
of
course,
elsewhere?
There's
a
tremendous
amount
of
work,
that's
actually
being
done
with
the
united
way
and
a
variety
of
others.
Are
you
aware
of
that
work
is
squirrel
part
of
that.
K
Only
indirectly,
we
are
certainly
aware
of
the
the
united
way
hub,
of
course,
along
victoria
park
and
the
working
women's
community
center
and
the
other
organizations
that
are
part
of
that,
and
we
definitely
want
that
hub
to
be
sustained
as
part
of
the
redevelopment,
if
at
all
possible-
and
we
do
know
that
the
toronto
community
benefits
network,
I
believe
that's.
The
organization
has
been
advocating
for
opportunities
for
local
residents
to
participate
in
construction
employment,
as
the
plan
is
being
built
out,
and
we
think
that's
a
great
idea.
C
You
are
supportive
of
mix
use
mix
development
in
this
area.
What
you
are
concerned
with
and
scroll
is
concerned
with
is
that
we
don't
fall
into
the
trap
of
simply
thinking
that
this
area
would
be
simply
one
in
which
we
have
more
residential
and
not
support
the
commercial
history
of
this
area.
We
want
to
ensure
that
this
is
a
live
work
area
that
has
higher
order
transit.
That's
what
scroll
would
like
to
ensure
happens
is
in
this
area.
Is
that
correct.
C
K
C
J
G
Yes
good
morning,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes?
Yes,
we
can
hear
you
all
right.
Thank
you.
I'm
mark
flowers,
a
lawyer
with
davies,
howe
and
council
to
1941
eglinton
east
holdings
inc.
I
did
provide
a
written
submission
to
clerk
last
week
and
I
trust
each
of
the
members
of
community
council
received
a
copy
of
that.
G
G
We
are
well
aware
of
the
city's
recently
initiated
mcr
process
and
we
recognize
that
that
is
in
fact,
one
way
to
achieve
an
employment
land
conversion,
but
it
is
by
no
means
the
only
way.
We
have
also
reviewed
the
council
resolution
adopted
at
the
end
of
june
of
this
year
that
authorized
the
city's
mcr
process,
and
we
confirm
that
there
is
nothing
in
that
resolution
that
precludes
what
we
are
requesting
today.
G
Not
only
can
council
do
so,
it
should
do
so
through
the
secondary
plan
process.
There
would
be
a
number
of
benefits
it
would
result
in
a
more
expedited
approvals
process
would
allow
the
secondary
plan
to
be
approved
in
a
more
integrated
manner
and
would
ultimately
allow
city
council
to
be
the
decision
maker
here,
rather
than
the
lpat
or
the
minister
on
an
mcr.
G
D
G
Correct
we've
set
out
in
our
in
our
submission,
was
filed
last
week
in
schedule.
A
we've
actually
been
very
specific
as
to
the
mapping
changes,
but
in
essence,
you're
correct.
It
would
be
to
change
it
from
employment
to
mixed
use
in
in
essence,
it's
really
what
we're
seeking
is
exactly
the
same
permissions
that
are
proposed
by
staff
for
the
northeast
corner
of
eglinton,
wharton,
literally
across
the
street,
from
our
property.
D
D
One
is
through
the
mcr
process.
The
municipal
comprehensive
review,
as
I
understand
that
comprehensive
review
is
already
in
it,
has
already
started,
and
staff
are
suggesting
that
if
you
wanted
to
go
through
a
process
of
redesignation
of
conversion,
that
would
be
the
correct
process.
Is
that
what
you?
Your
understanding
is,
and
you
would
prefer
it
going
to
the
secondary
plan,
which
would
be
some
sort
of
changes
to
the
secondary
plan
today
or
at
council?
Is
that
what
you're
suggesting.
G
Yes,
that
that's
my
understanding
of
staff's
position,
I
don't
know
whether
they
would
tell
you
that
it
has
to
go
through
the
mcr
or
whether
they
would
prefer.
Maybe
they
can
clarify
that
for
you,
but
certainly
that's
the
indication
that
we've
been
given
that
you're
quite
right,
the
city
has
initiated
an
mcr
process
that
was
approved
by
council.
I
believe
at
the
end
of
june,
what
I
referred
to
and
in
fact
starting
in
august
and
glass
for
a
year
so
up
until
next
august,
the
city
and
it's
available
on
their
website
is
saying
landowners.
G
If
you
are
in
within
employment
area,
you
can
make
a
written
request
to
us
to
convert
your
lands.
That
process
is
going
to
take
years.
It's
expected
that
it
will
take
at
least
until
the
spring
of
2022
before
the
city
would
even
be
bringing
anything
forward,
and
then,
of
course,
it
goes
to
the
minister
for
approval
and
the
minister
can
either
approve
or
modify
and
approve
and
again
that
could
take
months,
probably
into
2023.
G
the
alternative,
of
course,
and
what
we're
recommending
and
what
we're
asking
this
community
council
to
endorse.
Ultimately,
it's
a
decision
for
city
council,
not
community
council,
but
we
are
asking
you
to
endorse
this
is
in
this
instance.
As
you
know,
the
city
has
initiated
a
secondary
plan.
It
said
this
is
going
to
be
a
transformative
plan
notwithstanding
the
history.
This
is
what
we
want
the
future
to
look
like
in
the
golden
mile,
and
so
staff
have
brought
forward
recommendations
saying
well,
these
lands
were
employment,
so
we're
just
going
to
keep
them
employment.
G
Our
view
is
now
is
the
time
to
look
at
this.
You
know
comprehensively
to
look
at
it
from
the
perspective
of
what
is
the
appropriate
land
use
at
this
important
location
adjacent
to
a
transit
station
on
a
transit
corridor
in
the
context
of
a
plan
that
says
this
is
to
be
a
mixed-use
community
and
so
we're
asking
community
council
to
endorse
a
change
to
the
designation
on
the
lands
through
this
process.
That
again,
if
you
adopt
the
secondary
plan
at
the
council
meeting
at
the
end
of
this
month,
that's
obviously
a
much
quicker
process.
G
Many
more
benefits
to
the
city
rather
than
you
know,
waiting
a
few
years
or
if
there's
appeals
to
the
secondary
plan,
so
that
those
are
the
two
processes
that
you
can
follow.
Clearly,
staff
would
prefer
that
we
go
a
different
direction.
We're
asking
that
council
endorse
going
in
in
the
direction
through
this
secondary
plan.
D
G
This
matter,
of
course,
came
before
community
council
in
july.
In
early
july,
our
clients,
planner
michael
goldberg,
made
a
submission
30
seconds.
I
spoke
at
the
community
council
and
that
was
months
ago,
and
there
was
opportunity
for
discussion
in
the
intervening
months
which
we
had
so
I
I
would
say
this
is
not
an
11th
hour
request.
The
staff
has
been
aware
of
it,
certainly
for
several
months
and
as
has
community
council
and
and
regardless
now
is
the
time
when
community
council
is
being
asked
to
adopt
a
secondary
plan.
H
I
am
good
morning
vice
chair
members
of
community
council
morning,
good
morning,
richard
jones
of
gwd
planners.
We
represent
bell
canada,
the
owner
of
the
property
located
at
865
pharmacy
avenue,
which
is
the
located
at
the
southeast
corner
of
pharmacy
avenue
in
ashenby
road,
approximately
100
meters,
north
of
leglington
avenue
and
the
future
pharmacy
station.
H
The
bell
property
is
currently
developed
with
a
five-story
central
office
telecommunication
toll
and
switching
building
a
500
foot,
high
communications
tower,
a
series
of
outdoor
generators
and
underground
communication
infrastructure.
The
existing
building
and
infrastructure
are
integral
components
of
bell's
communications
network.
H
A
bell
central
office,
such
as
the
one
located
on
the
site,
is
the
hub
for
all
telecommunications
services
in
the
community
and
performs
essential
services
that
cannot
be
replaced.
The
bell
properties,
facilities
and
infrastructure
provide
communication
services
that
are
utilized
by
emergency
services.
In
addition
to
private
commercial
and
residential
uses.
Pursuant
to
provincial
policy,
the
belt
property
is
considered
a
major
facility,
while
bell
supports
the
city's
overall
initiative
to
update
planning
policies
for
the
golden
mile.
H
H
While
bell
appreciates
the
efforts
taken
by
city
in
this
regard
is
our
opinion
that
a
corresponding
modification
is
also
required
to
the
maps.
The
continued
identification
of
the
full
road
cross
section
fully
within
the
bell
property
on
the
maps
is
inconsistent
with
the
proposed
policy
modification
in
section
6.3.
H
Although
conceptual
and
subject
to
ea
study,
the
current
alignment
is
shown
and
is
misleading
and
should
be
identified
on
the
maps
further
south
to
remove
the
acknowledged
conflict
with
bell's
infrastructure
and
clearly
reflect
the
policy
intent
of
modified
section.
6..
Excuse
me,
6.3,
notwithstanding
bell's
intention
for
the
continued
use
of
the
bell
property
as
a
major
facility.
The
subject
site
also
represents
a
significant
intensification
opportunity
on
account
of
the
site's
proximity
to
the
lrt
location
within
a
major
transit
station
area
and
an
existing
mixed
use.
H
Area
designation,
as
proposed
the
secondary
plan
inappropriately
restricts
the
belt
properties,
intensification
potential
for
those
portions
of
the
site
that
are
able
to
accommodate
it.
This
is
on
account
of
the
extensive
series
of
public
streets,
pedestrian
connections
and
other
public
spaces
on
the
bell
property,
which
significantly
reduces
the
amount
of
land
available
to
accommodate
intensification,
to
measure
it
with
its
location.
H
Further,
the
compounding
effects
of
policies
that
draft
secondary
plans
severely
restrict
the
ability
of
the
belt
property
to
accommodate
top
building
built
forms,
including
at
the
south
limits
of
bell
property,
where
the
greatest
opportunity
for
intensification
exists
as
it
relates
to
bell's.
Numerous
other
concerns.
No
further
policy
or
mapping
revisions
have
been
advanced
by
staff
and
revised
secondary
plan
and,
on
that
basis,
spell
advises
that
it
does
not
support
staff
recommendations.
A
request
that
scarborough
community
council
not
endorse
draft
opa
is
revised.
C
Thank
you
very
much,
madame
chair
for
you
to
mr
domes,
so,
mr
domes,
you,
you
indicated
that
obviously
the
importance
of
the
bell
facility
to
the
community
and
to
the
city
as
a
whole
that
the
infrastructure
that's
there
is
obviously
needed
for
communication.
You
talk
about
emergency
services
and
so
on.
Is
that
correct?
H
In
the
long
term,
counselor,
yes-
and
it's
not
so
much
as
reconfiguring
the
site,
the
central
office
building-
will
remain
in
the
long
term.
There
is
a
series
of
underground
infrastructure
components
that
are
integral
to
the
operations
which
which
which
are
significant.
These
are
not
your
typical
underground
ducks
and
a
subdivision.
These
are
major
like
a
trunk
sewer,
but
for
telecommunications.
C
Right
and
that's
why
I
really
wanted
to
get
at
because,
as
you
just
pointed
out,
that
the
infrastructure,
the
importance
of
it
and
so
on-
and
it
would
be
very
involved
with
if
you
were,
to
remove
the
move,
those
so
there's
a
potential
possibility
in
the
future.
The
future
is
obviously
a
long
time
that
bell
may
move
its
co
operation.
C
That's
what
you
want
us
to
understand
today,
and
you
also
wanted
to
ensure
flexibility
that
would
be
incorporated
into
the
obviously
the
the
the
item
that
we
have
in
front
of
us
that
ensures
that
your
clients,
property
does
not.
If
you
will,
you
know
negatively,
it
doesn't
negatively
impact
them
for
the
future.
That's
what
you're
hoping
for
us
to
understand
today
is
that
correct.
H
C
Right,
you
spoke
in
your
presentation
and
I'm
sure
I'm
not
sure
how
much
shall
I
have
left,
but
this
will
probably
be
my
last
question.
You
talked
about
modification
of
the
maps
and
I'll
ask
staff
some
questions
around
that.
Can
you
maybe
just
elaborate
a
little
bit
further
in
terms
of
what
you
mean
by
that.
H
Certainly
so
the
the
first
point
I
raised
counselor
is
the
new
conceptual
street.
That's
shown
on
maps
45
4
7
9.
that
conceptual
street
is
kind
of
a
mid-block
public
road
that
goes
directly
through
the
existing
bell,
building
generators
and
telecommunications
tower
that
that
road
is
not
going
to
be
possible
in
the
very
in
the
long
term.
So
our
our
request
is
that
it
be
removed
entirely
from
the
bell
property.
H
Secondly,
secondly,
the
the
what
is
termed
as
the
golden
mile
boulevard,
which
is
new
street
east
west
2,
I
believe,
is
currently
shown
as
being
located
with
completely
within
the
bell
property
along
the
south
limits,
and
that
is
the
location
where
this
underground
infrastructure
conflict
happens.
So
our
request
to
staff
has
been
to
move
that
east-west
street
number,
two
completely
off
the
bell
property
to
avoid
the
acknowledged
conflict
and
move
it
further
south.
So
that
would
be
our
request
to
community
council.
J
J
J
M
Good
morning,
madam
chair
members
of
community
council,
we
five
minutes.
Thank
you
102.!
Thank
you,
102.85773,
canada
core,
which
operates
as
art
life
developments,
and
we
thank
you
for
your
time.
This
morning
we
attended
at
the
last
community
council
meeting
in
july,
and
we
made
submissions
on
the
secondary
plan,
but
just
for
context,
we'll
highlight
some
of
the
reasons
why
we're
here
well
we're
the
owner
of
the
property
at
1861,
o'connor
drive.
M
This
property
is
less
than
a
five
minute
walk
from
the
intersection
of
o'connor
drive
in
victoria
park
and
the
future
o'connor
stop
for
the
eglinton
crosstown
our
client.
Our
life
has
active
zoning,
bylaw
amendment
and
site
plan
applications
before
the
city
to
allow
the
property
to
redevelop
into
a
nine-story
mixed-use
mid-rise,
building
with
over
250
residential
units
along
o'connor
drive,
which
is
identified
as
an
avenue
to
be
clear.
We
are
not
seeking
a
tall
condo
tower
or
densities
which
is
being
proposed
on
the
west
side
of
victoria
park,
which
are
about
4.0
fsi.
M
M
It
is
our
submission
that
is
very
likely
that
the
tribunal
will
approve
something
more
dense
on
the
site
than
what
is
there
now,
which
is
a
one-story
building
containing
automotive
service
uses
and
given
the
proximity
of
the
pharmacy,
lrt
the
existing
planning
direction
in
the
op,
the
sas
and
the
provincial
policy.
In
our
view,
it
is
very
likely
that
development
will
be
approved.
M
M
These
proposed
revisions
were
not
accepted
as
our
october
letter
notes.
Virtually
none
of
the
policies
we
have
identified
have
changed
the
impact
of
not
changing.
These
policies
is
not
only
detrimental
to
our
site.
It
also
introduces
uncertainty
in
the
development
where
none
exists
today,
and
it
is
also
detrimental
to
the
development
of
the
secondary
plan.
M
M
In
other
words,
not
only
is
there
no
budget
for
the
road,
it
is
unclear
what
exactly
that
budget
will
be
when
this
realignment
will
occur,
what
impacts
this
realignment
may
have
on
our
clients,
property
and
the
neighborhood
by
tying
permissions
for
redevelopment
or
freezing
redevelopment
until
the
realignment
is
secured,
the
city
will
in
fact
be
slowing
down
rather
than
promoting
development
of
the
secondary
plan
area,
as
noted
in
our
july
submission.
Thank
you.
That
is
putting
the
cart
before
the
horse,
so
to
speak,
and
so
our
request
is
simple.
M
We
ask
that
the
revised
official
plan
amendment
be
deferred
until
such
time
as
the
city
has
appropriately
evaluated
the
impacts
of
the
proposed
realignment
as
it
is
required
to
do
so
under
the
environmental
assessment
act
and
number
two.
The
city
has
secured
the
necessary
resources
to
complete
the
realignment
if
it
is
determined
that
the
through
the
eu
process,
the
about
the
road
reconfiguration,
is
appropriate.
M
D
It's
councilor
crawford
here,
so
just
thank
you
for
your
deputation,
so
just
to
clarify
why
you
are
here.
You
have
a
nine
story:
development
across
the
street
in
on
the
west
side
of
victoria
park,
going
through
the
process
to
to
want
to
build
this
development,
and
now
this
secondary
plan
puts
that.
I
guess
from
your
perspective
in
jeopardy.
Is
that
correct.
M
M
It
was
a
case
where,
obviously,
the
city
is
very
busy
we're
trying
to
move
the
development
forward
and
we're
there
we're
going
to
be
there
in
march,
and
you
know
from
our
perspective,
the
development
will
will
be
approved
very
similar
to
what
we're
seeking,
which
is
a
nine-story
development,
as
you
had
acknowledged.
Okay,.
D
And-
and
I
guess
as
part
of
the
secondary
plan-
that's
being
approved
or
potentially
being
approved
today,
so
there
and
I'll
be
speaking
with
staff.
After
this,
too,
there
will
be
an
ea
process
to
look
at
o'connor,
so
it
is
proposed
in
this
plan
to
have
o'connor
in
the
alignment
that
you
presently
see
that,
but
we
still
have
to
go
through
an
ea
process
to
actually
determine
whether
or
not
you
know
because,
as
I
understand
at
this
point,
the
the
the
o'connor
alignment
goes
through
the
property.
M
Through
manchester,
that's
correct
cancer
crawford
exactly
our
our
request
is
to
allow
the
ea
process
to
proceed
as
it
is
required
to
do,
but
in
the
meantime,
there's
nothing
in
the
environmental
assessment
act.
There's
nothing
that
planning
act
which
permits
the
city
to
essentially
freeze
the
development
until
that
time.
So
our
request
is
to
either
allow
our
development
to
proceed
as
is
or
allow
the
ea
act
to
proceed.
M
D
Thank
you,
and
and
again
when
we're
looking
at
process.
You
know-
and
this
is
not
uncommon.
You
know
when
we're
looking
at
these
larger
city
plans
in
the
event
that
we
go
through
this
ea
process,
we
do
decide
whether
the
process
decides.
The
alignment
does
have
an
impact
to
your
particular
site.
We
will
also
at
that
point
you
know
looking
at
fairly
compensating
if
whether
it's
through
expropriation,
whether
it's
through
other
means
a
fair
market
value
for
whatever
that
site,
would
have
been
designated
at
the
time
of
that.
D
M
Through
you,
ma'am
chair,
that's
correct,
counselor.
We
are
aware
of
the
process
again,
our
request
is
to
if
this
process
occurs
and
if
it
turns
out
that
the
ea
process
determines
that
our
site
is
required.
You
know
we're
aware
of
it
we'll
work
through
that,
but
in
the
meantime
we
don't
want
the
matter
which
has
been
scheduled,
and
you
know
all
this
community
interest
in
in
the
redevelopment
be
affected
by
the
ea
process.
J
A
E
E
In
addition,
we
appreciate
that
some
of
the
revisions
have
been
made
to
try
and
address
some
of
the
comments
in
our
august
letter.
However,
some
of
our
concerns
remain
related
to,
and
our
concerns
in
this
case
are
similar
to
mark
flowers,
client
who's
at
the
southeast
corner
of
warden
and
eglinton.
The
employment
designation
on
the
south
side
of
eglinton
and
our
correspondence
outlines
that
this
area
is
not
a
typical
employment
area
that
requires
preservation,
rather
with
immediate
proximity
to
two
higher
order.
Transit
stations.
Mixed
use
developments
should
be
permitted.
E
E
That
was
my
last
comment.
I
did
want
to
say
specifically
to
counselor
crawford's
comments
on
mark
flowers,
deputation
about
the
last
minute
nature
of
the
request
for
the
conversion
of
the
employment
lens
our
clients
and-
and
we
have
letters
dating
back
to
june
of
last
year
may
and
june
of
last
year,
requesting
that
the
employment
area
be
reviewed.
N
From
a
planning
perspective.
The
golden
mile
secondary
plan
does
not
really
provide
any
new
policies
or
change
the
policy
framework
on
the
subjects.
That's
the
fact
that
the
site's
obviously
included
within
the
boundaries,
the
secondary
plan.
In
essence,
references
back
to
the
old
o'connor
drive
new
house
study
policies,
for,
I
think,
a
majority
of
the
lines
in
character
area
eight.
So
we
at
the
big
layer
group
have
associated
with
staff
and
we
understand
the
reason.
N
Why
is
obviously,
as
you've
heard
previously,
the
exact
alignment
of
o'connor
drive
is
up
in
the
air
and
that
has
a
large
effect
on
character
area.
Eight
and
as
such
it'd
be
kind
of
premature
at
this
point
to
provide
a
new
policy
framework
for
that
area,
and
we
understand
also
that
staff
are
recommending
moving
forward
with
the
ea
process
and
doing
appropriate
alignment
of
contracts.
So
we
do
appreciate
all
of
that
and-
and
we
do
plan
to
be
active
participants
in
that
process.
N
So
for
this
is
our
opinion
that,
following
the
o'connor
drive,
ea
process
or
concurrent
with
it,
staff
should
be
reviewing
the
appropriate
land
use
and
urban
design
policies
for
area
eight,
specifically
in
the
o'connor
drive
area
such
that,
if
there
is
realignment
proposed.
You
know
a
new
policy
framework
for
that
area
can
start
through
emergency
time,
and
I
don't
believe
that
this
secondary
plan
process
has
really
created
a
new
policy
framework
and
again
I'll
mention
that's
because
at
this
point,
okana
drive
and
where
it's
ultimately
aligned
is
unknown.
A
I
So
I
am
the
lawyer
for
one:
zero:
nine,
zero
zero
one,
one
ontario
limited,
which
you
are
more
likely
to
know
as
the
eclipse
and
town
center
it's
located
at
22,
lubovic
avenue,
which
is
the
southwest
corner
of
lubbock
and
england
and
east.
Some
of
the
tenants
in
that
location
are
old,
navy,
cineplex,
odeon
and
party
city.
I
made
a
written
submission
for
your
meeting
in
july.
After
that
meeting
staff
contacted
me
as
well
as
the
other
landowner's
representatives
for
a
more
detailed
submission.
I
My
clients
lands
were
previously
an
abandoned
general
motors
site.
It
was
polluted
and
required
significant
remediation.
My
client
wanted
to
build
residential,
but
the
city
wanted
employment
lens
and
my
client
agreed
to
that.
They
cleaned
the
lands
to
a
commercial
and
non-residential
standard.
They
prepared
detailed
transportation
planning
for
the
revitalization
of
the
area
for
retail,
they
constructed
lubavik
avenue
and
they
serviced
the
site
to
allow
for
a
ttc
depot,
rona
home
center,
canadian
tire
and
the
eglinton
town
center,
and
this
all
occurred
in
the
late
1990s.
I
In
his
letter,
mr
cole,
an
engineer
explained
that,
in
return
for
my
clients
contributions,
the
city
was
supposed
to
collect
a
tsi
charge.
The
city
confirmed
that
my
client
had
over
contributed
by
2.29
million
dollars
and
to
date
it
has
only
refunded
1.1
million
at
the
time
of
servicing.
My
client
also
provided
the
security
for
eight
hundred
seventeen
thousand
seven
hundred
eighty
dollars
my
office
and
I
have
spent
five
years
working
on
having
the
security
release.
I
We've
been
passed
back
and
forth
between
different
staff
without
success,
and
I
have
to
say
it's
been
very
frustrating
if
nothing
else
comes
from
today.
I
hope
that
you
will
instruct
staff
to
resolve
this
problem
in
the
letter
from
mr
grimes.
He
explains
that
the
eglinton
town
center
pays
2.3
million
dollars
in
property
taxes
every
year.
It
also
provides
for
660
jobs
on
site
plus
another
530,
indirect
jobs,
most
of
which
are
in
the
city
of
toronto.
I
There
is
a
plan
to
expand
the
center
by
a
further
fifty
thousand
square
feet,
which
would
increase
the
property
taxes
by
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
create
113
new
jobs
on
site.
It
seems
to
me
that,
based
on
my
clients,
actions
in
the
past,
the
city
has
a
moral
obligation
to
ensure
that
any
planet
adopts
allows
the
eglinton
sound
center
to
be
built
to
completion.
I
The
most
significant
problem
with
the
proposed
plan
is
the,
from
my
client's
point
of
view,
is
the
extension
of
civic
road
and
o'connor
drive.
It
would
put
a
road
right
through
the
middle
of
my
client's
lands.
It
would
decrease
the
amount
of
space
available
for
expansion
and
it
would
also
create
barriers
to
pedestrians,
within
the
plaza.
I
I
In
my
letter
I've
listed
the
specific
policies
that
I'm
concerned
about
I'll
note.
You
won't
see
a
letter
from
a
planner
there,
so
more
policies
may
be
raised
if
a
planner
has
to
be
retained
on
this,
I'm
not
going
to
list
the
details.
Again,
though,
I
hope
I've
been
clear
in
showing
how
the
eglinton
town
center
has
cooperated
with
the
city
and
provided
benefits
and
environmental
cleanup
property
taxes,
servicing
and
jobs.
I
As
far
as
this
proposed
secondary
plan
is
concerned,
I
hope
you
will
agree
with
me
that
it
should
be
amended
to
allow
my
client
to
complete
the
build
out
of
the
eglinton
town
center
and
that
the
best
way
to
do
that,
it
seems
at
this
point,
would
be
to
exclude
my
clients
lands
from
the
plan,
or
at
least
not
change,
anything
that
affects
its
property
if
you're
not
convinced.
At
the
very
least,
I
would
ask
you
to
defer
this
again
and
instruct
staff
to
meet
with
us.
I
A
C
C
If
we
were
to
proceed
with
respect
to
building
the
roadways
through
the
site
and
he
referenced
the
site,
the
maps
45,
47
and
49.,
I'm
wondering
had
we
taken
into
consideration
the
impact
on
this
land
with
respect
to
the
roadway.
That's
the
roadways
that
are
being
proposed
through
the
vel
canada,
land.
E
O
So
that
would
be
outlined
there,
and
dell
would
definitely
be
involved
in
that
process
outlining
the
concern
and
we
did
meet
with
them
before
before
today,
and
we
noticed
some
points
they
made
that
were
valid
and
we'll
definitely
work
some
of
those
details
into
the
requests
for
proposal.
When
we
initiate
the
environmental
assessment
project.
C
C
So
it's
not
necessary
now
to
respond
to
his
concern
wanting
the
modification
at
this
time,
you're
suggesting
that
as
you
move
forward
as
part
of
the
ea
process,
you'll
be
able
to
address
those,
because
these
are
major
concerns
that
you
know
the
bell.
Canada
representatives
have,
and
this
facility
has
been
there
before
you,
and
I
were
born
quite
frank-
has
been
there
for
a
long
time.
C
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
able
to
address
the
issues
that's
been
raised,
you're
suggesting
to
us
today,
there's
not
a
need
to
delay
this
process,
there's
not
a
need
to
to
suggest
that
we
remove
those
lines,
those
that
those
roadways
they
may
very
well
be
removed.
You
just
have
it
right
now,
slotted
on
the
on
the
maps
as
a
potential,
but
not
necessarily
that
this
will
be
what
will
be
in
place
until
such
time
that
the
ea
validates
whether
or
not
this
would
be
allowable.
Is
that
what
you're
saying.
C
The
conceptual
nature
of
the
alignment.
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
Just
a
few
more
questions,
one
is
with
respect
to
the
o'connor
realignment.
I
gather.
That's
you.
This
is,
will
be
initiated
through
the
the
the
environmental
assessment
right
as
part
of
the
process.
You
look
you'll.
You
will
look
at
how
the
realignment
will
work.
Is
that
what
will
take
place
as
part
of
the
ea.
C
So
if
I
were
to
move
a
motion
to
ask
that
as
you
go
through
this
ea
process,
that
you
look
at
the
option
for
potential
modification
that
we
presented
to
you
and
the
team
by
landowners
in
the
area,
this
would
be
something
that
would
be.
You
would
welcome
yeah,
okay,
let
me
then
turn
my
attention
to
the
thoughts
around
aligning
thermos
road
with
the
road
on
the
the
south.
C
I
think
that
is
that
civic
road,
I
believe
it's
civic,
yes,
senate
senate
road,
as
civic
is
the
one
further
over
south,
okay,
so
senate
road.
I'm
just
wondering
why
is
this
being
suggested?
I
mean,
for
a
long
time,
there's
been
a
real
desire
to
ensure
that
there
wasn't
this
connection
on
senate
road,
as
I
recall,
there's
a
lot
of
car
repair
facilities
and
so
on
some
of
the
concerns
we
have
around
those
vehicles
coming
in
being
brought
in
for
testing
in
the
area
around
ashton,
b
and
thermos
road.
O
I'm
sorry
manager,
so
the
metrolinx
was
a
part
of
the
technical
advisory
committee
for
the
study,
so
they
were
involved
involving
the
study
and
the
translation
master
plan,
so
they
were
in
form
of
the
process
in
terms
of
the
the
need
for
this
realignment
is
to
kind
of
fulfill
the
vision
for
the
secondary
plan.
I
think
through
many
steps
and
then
through
to
emily,
I
miss
caldwell.
The
need
for
complete
community
is
needed
and
therefore
we
try
to
emphasize
need
for
a
complete
network
in
this
secondary
plan
area.
O
A
D
They're
suggesting
is
because-
and
I
think
they
mentioned
across
the
street-
you-
you
have
high
density
mixed
use
because
it's
beside
a
transit,
node
and
you
know
potentially
part
of
the
growth
plan
that
they
would
expect
and
and
want
to
be
designated
mixed-use
residential.
You
have
determined
that
is
not
the
case.
So
can
you
give
me
a
better
understanding
of
why
you
determined
that
this?
That
section
specifically
needs
to
be
employment,
lands.
E
Madam
chair,
it's
possibly
any
speaking.
I
will
give
a
brief
introduction
and
then
pass
it
on
to
jeffrey
cantos,
who
is
our
senior
planner
dealing
with
the
municipal
comprehensive
review
city-wide,
but
I
will
say
that
we've
heard
from
from
many
speakers
today
about
the
importance
of
employment
lands.
Employment
lands
play
a
very
important
function
in
terms
of
providing
jobs.
It
adds
to
the
mixed
use
community
in
this
area
and
to
suggest
that
employment
lands
can
be
intensified
near
a
transfer.
E
Transfer
transfer
station
area,
I
think
is-
is
incorrect.
We
are
looking
for
intensification
of
employment
lands,
but
we
want
to
see
them
intensified
with
good
employment
uses
and
in
a
way
that
provides
jobs
for
the
new
community
here
and
I'll
now,
pass
it
over
to
jeffrey
cantos
for
a
discussion
about
the
mcr
process.
P
Thank
you
paul
through
the
chair.
The
reason
why
we
take
why
we
look
at
employment
lands
and
employment
areas
comprehensively
is
because
they
amount
to
13
of
the
city's
land
base
houses
29
of
the
city's
jobs.
So
when
we
look
at
issues
of
conver
converting
them
in
conversions,
we
want
to
look
at
them
comprehensively
at
a
city-wide
scale,
not
just
at
a
site-by-site
basis.
So
when
we
look
at
that
comprehensively
because
it
has
effects
on
our
local
and
city
economy
on
a
regional
basis,
we
can't
look
at
them
on
a
site-specific
basis.
D
D
So
can
you
talk
a
bit
about
the
timing,
so
we
have
an
mcr
process
that
is
underway
and
again
this
applicant
was
suggesting
it's
going
to
take
10
or
15
years
to
get
to
any
kind
of
resolution
and
and
their
particular
lands,
whether
or
not
they
go
through
the
conversion
or
not.
It's
going
to
be
sitting
there
for
a
long
time.
So
can
you
just
talk
a
bit
about
the
that
process
of
the
mcr
compared
to
you
know,
say
the
secondary
plan,
which,
from
their
perspective,
is
a
lot
quicker.
P
Of
course,
of
course,
to
you
manager
the
process
for
this
next
municipal
comprehensive
review,
which
we
started
august
4th
of
this
year,
will
conclude
by
july
1st
2022.
The
province
legislates
this
date
for
all
municipalities
within
the
greater
golden
horseshoe
area
to
complete
our
mcr
by
that
time.
So,
in
my
in
my
mind,
in
my
read
of
the
our
instructions
from
the
province,
it
has
to
be
completed
by
july,
1
2022,
which
is
in
two
years
from
now.
E
A
J
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
chair.
Most
of
my
questions
have
been
answered,
and
I
just
have
a
quick
one
about
one
of
the
deputies
were
mentioning
something
about
the
budget
for
the
road
for
the
realignment.
I
I
suppose
it
means
o'connor
drive,
can
can
staff.
Tell
me
whether
there's
any
plans
on
how
this
road
is
going
to
be
built
out,
and
you
know
what
is
what
is
the
plan
for
this
this
any
budget
or
who's
paying
for
it?
That
kind
of
thing.
O
Thank
you,
counselor
f3
manager.
Yes,
so
the
work
for
the
municipal
class
ea,
the
study
itself
that
has
been
budgeted
has
been
in
the
work
program
under
transportation
services.
Through
that
process,
the
ea
process,
it
will
determine
the
exact
cost
and
the
implementation
strategy.
So
we
need
to
complete
the
ea
to
understand
the
cost
element
of
the
infrastructure
improvement.
J
O
A
C
O
O
I
think
the
intention
is
to
connect
the
community
north
of
edmonton
to
to
existence,
so
the
connection,
because
exiting
would
have
the
unidirectional
bike
cycling
cycle
track,
going
east-west
on
the
north
and
south
southern
clinton.
So
the
intention
is
to
get
the
cyclists
to
edmonton
and
obviously
there's
opportunity
to
expand
the
cycling
network
for
themselves.
There
will
be
that
opportunity
as
well
in
the
future,
so
so.
O
C
Thank
you
very
much,
I'm
just
looking
at
a
letter
which
I
receive
it's.
It's
has
letterhead
metrolinx
and
infrastructure,
ontario
io,
and
it
says
that,
for
this
alignment,
speaking
to
thermos
and
senate
has
not
been
considered
in
the
design
or
the
operation
of
the
eclrt
project
and
were
and
are
not,
and
we
were
not
aware
of
any
formal
requests
by
the
city's
transit
project
group
for
further
exploration
as
a
potential
change
via
the
eastbound
variation
process.
G
Through
the
chair,
metrolinx
says,
andrew
identified
has
been
part
of
the
study
process
for
the
golden
miles,
the
current
design
and
construction
for
the
crosstown
project
never
contemplated,
but
through
the
golden
mile
secondary
plan
study
process.
It
was
identified
early
on
as
one
of
the
five
key
transportation
improvements
for
the
study
area
and
through
the
past
two
years
in
the
golden
mouth
study
process.
Where
that
opportunity
to
realign
and
make
full
use
of
the
existing
signal
and
crossing
of
eglinton
to
benefit
the
full.
C
D
Yeah,
thank
you.
It
won't
be
long.
I
I
guess
some
apart
or
some
of
the
questions
were
already
answered.
It's
with
regard
to
the
o'connor
realign
potential
counter
realignment
in
the
eea,
so
just
to
clarify
you
go
through
the
ea
process,
and
it
will
determine
that
and
just
with
the
one
deputy
that
we
would
need
the
land
that
this
particular
nine-story
development
would
be
on.
D
We
will
go
through
a
process
with
that
owner,
whether
it's
through
expropriation
or
other
means
to
look
at
you
know
fair
market
value
compensation.
All
of
that,
if
we
do
after
the
eaa
suggests,
require
any
land
similar
to
that
or
any
other
lands.
In
fact,
can
you
just
so
describe
that
process
that
we
would
go
through
in
acquiring
those
kind
of
lands
in
the
event
that
the
ea
goes
through
private
property.
O
So
the
ea
process
would
then
I
would
definitely
go
through
the
to
look
at
the
alignments
and
the
process
that
needs
to
be
involved
in
to
in
terms
of
implementing
the
network
in
terms
of
expropriation
and
the
different
options
to
to
secure
this
land.
I'm
not
the
appropriate
person
to
answer
that
question,
but
there's
definitely
many
mechanisms
to
to
secure
this
public
street
network
and
development
application
is
definitely
one
and
expo
creation
is
obviously
another
process
that.
D
And
then,
and
when
we
begin
the
ea
process,
can
you
sort
of
describe
the
timing
of
this?
I
think
the
deputy
was
mentioning
it
could
take
a
while
and
they
don't
want
to
be.
You
know
sitting
back
not
having
that
opportunity
to
realize
any
sort
of
development
on
the
property.
So
can
you
give
me
the
description
of
how
long
this
ea
process
will
take
place.
O
O
A
C
C
And
basically
the
motion
is
that
we're
at
city
council
direct,
the
chief
planner
and
executive
director
of
city
planning
and
general
manager
transportation
to
initiate
the
municipal
class
environmental
assessment
study
for
the
golden
mile
area,
which
will
include
options
for
potential
modification
to
bartlett
avenue
and
a
corner,
drive
and
consider
comments
received
from
landowners
and
creating
that
flexibility.
So
the
landlord
owners
concerns
should
be
obviously
top
of
mind
in
terms
of
this
process.
That's
the
intent.
The
intent
of
this
particular
motion
to
create
an
opportunity
to
give
greater
consideration.
C
I
have
a
second
motion
with
respect
to
sc
18.1,
which
is
a
golden
mile
plan
final
report.
The
motion
is
that
city
staff
be
directed
to
revise
all
maps
and
policies
in
the
official
plan,
amendment
number
499
prior
to
being
presented
to
city
council
for
adoption
to
delete
all
reference
to
the
proposed
thermos
road
realignment
and
reconfiguration
north
of
eglinton
avenue.
C
Madam
chair,
as
a
young
boy.
In
the
community,
a
young
high
school
student,
one
of
the
jobs
I
had
was
working
at
canadian
thermos
thermos
road
is
named
after
the
company
who
built
the
thermos
and
as
a
young
person
that
area
there
always
great
challenges
with
respect
to
the
drivers
from
senate
road
coming
in
and
test
driving
their
vehicles,
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
It's
been
around
the
community
for
a
long
time.
Large
trucks
and
people
were
not
happy
with
that.
C
Now
we're
looking
at
developing
a
residential
community
on
the
north
side,
mixed
use,
obviously,
and
and
we're
saying
okay,
it
would
be
okay
to
align
the
roadway
to
create
that
opportunity
in
terms
of
configuration.
I
disagree
with
that
and
I
would
submit
to
you
that
many
in
the
community
would
disagree
with
that.
I
also
disagree
with
the
fact
that
this
whole
consideration
of
putting
a
bike
trail
in
that
industrial
area
would
not
be
in.
C
In
my
view,
although
I
know
I
appreciate
the
things
that
staff
are
saying
is
that
you
know
it
would
be
safe,
but
I
I
would
disagree
with
that.
I
move
the
two
motions,
but
also
to
now
congratulate
the
staff.
I
mean
emily
caldwell
and
the
team
and
mrs
giuliani
and
the
team-
and
everyone
has
done
such
tremendous
work
with
this.
You
know
secondary
plan
and
the
whole
process
from
the
designing
folks,
schweipe
and
others,
and
so
on.
I've
had
many
conversations
with
the
group.
I
know
they've
done
an
amazing
job.
C
I
I've
never
seen
a
secondary
plan
review
report
that
everyone's
been
happy
with,
and
I
understand
that
not
everybody
is
happy
with
that,
and
this
is
not
the
final
outcome.
There
will
be
more
coming
forward,
there'll
be
processes
that
will
be
in
place,
elpat
and
others,
and
so
on
this
opportunity
for
further
discussion.
I'm
thankful
to
the
staff
who
indicated
that
you
know
the
concerns
regarding
bell,
canada
that
will
be
addressed.
C
I
believe
that
it
can
be
addressed
so
as
to
ensure
that
their
con
their
concerns
are
taken
into
full
consideration
as
part
of
the
ea
process.
I
want
to
thank
mr,
what
more
from
scroll
and
for
their
contribution
in
this
particular
process.
It's
been
very
helpful
to
ensure
that
we
understand
that
this
is
not
just
going
to
be
a
bedroom
community,
where
people
will
just
simply
sleep
and
wake
up
and
then
go
to
work.
We
want
it
to
be
a
mix,
use
a
community
and
it
will
be.
C
C
D
D
I
think
the
work
that
you
know
our
planning,
staff
and
staff
all
across
the
city
do
is
tremendous,
and
this
is
just
one
example
of
that.
So
just
want
to
thank
them
for
that
work
and
again
everybody
who's
been
involved
in
the
process
and,
as
my
colleague
mentioned,
not
everybody
is
happy
through
this
process.
There's
a
lot
of
give
and
take
there's
a
lot
of
work
that
does
take
place.
D
We
we
have
to
go
back
and
forth
and
we
try
to
figure
out
where
that
balance
is,
and
you
know,
I'm
hoping
that,
even
though
there
is
you
know,
some
of
the
landowners
are
are
not
pleased
with
where
we're
going
that
we
do
have
that
opportunity
over
the
next
number
of
years
to
really
figure
this
out,
because
I
think
it
will
benefit
well.
The
hope
is,
it
benefits
everybody,
but
listen.
We
all
whether
we
are
from
you
know,
scarborough
or
not.
D
You
know,
with
the
complexity
and
size
of
what
we're
going
to
be
doing.
Is
this
going
to
take
5
years,
10
years,
20
years,
30
years,
it's
hard
to
say,
but
the
hope
is
is
at
some
point
when
I
think
most
of
us
here
are
long
gone.
Maybe
my
grandkids
that
I've
actually
brought
to
the
area
and
they
may
be
looking
at
the
the
fruits
of
the
decisions
we've
made
already.
D
But
you
know-
and
I
just
want
to
comment
too
on
on
the
one
issue
that
was
brought
up
by
the
deputy
deputy
and
I
believe
in
1941
eglinton
avenue,
and
those
are
challenges
that
we
have
to
look
at
when
we're
looking
at
the
role
and
the
importance
of
employment
lands
and
retaining
employment
lands
and
figuring
out
where
the
balance
is
and
even
though
we
were
not
able
to
meet
that.
You
know
need
necessarily
for
that.
One
applicant
1941
eglinton
avenue
there
is
still
a
process
to
look
at
options
or
opportunities
to
look
at
increased
density.
D
Yes,
it
is
through
a
different
process,
which
is
the
mcr
process,
and
it
will,
you
know,
potentially
take
a
little
bit
longer,
but
I
I
I
wouldn't
be
comfortable
at
this
point
wanting
or
directing
staff
to
look
at
the
conversion
of
employment
lands.
At
this
point-
and
I
think
the
the
first
reputation
from
from
scroll
outlined
that
very
clearly
for
me-
and
I
think
I'm
hoping
for
my
other
colleagues
so
again,
these
aren't
easy
decisions.
D
J
J
Every
week
I
go
there
and
I
know
the
changes
in
the
area
and
it's
not
in
my
ward,
but
I've
been
recognizing
that
it's
not
an
easy
task
to
to
make
changes
to
our
city,
but
I've
always
have
the
analogy
saying
that
if
we
don't
change
and
people
changing
around
us,
we're
going
to
be
left
behind
and
we're
living
in
the
21st
century
and
we
need
to
change.
But
the
fact
that
I
think
we
need
to
manage.
J
The
change
is
very
important
and
I
I'd
like
to
thank
staff,
and
I
thank
the
local
counselors
for
actually
working
together
with
the
you
know
with
change,
because
we
need
to
change
as
a
city.
We
cannot
be,
you
know,
lagging
behind
to
other
cities,
and
but
we
must
change
in
a
fair
way
and
I've
heard
about
the
deputies.
J
But
we
I
like
to
thank
staff,
but
on
the
other
hand
I
like
to
ensure
and
and
staff,
please
work
with
all
the
people
and
people.
You
know
everybody
have
their
own
perspective
and
everybody
have
their
own
interest.
So
it's
not
easy
to
balance
the
interest,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
need
to
work
in
a
fair
way
to
make
sure
that
everybody
will
benefit
from
this
change
and,
having
said
that,
I
will
be
supporting
councillor
thompson's
motion
as
well
as
I
will
support
the
recommendation.
Thank
you.
A
C
A
Okay,
great,
I
just
quickly
just
want
to
say
I
think
you
know,
counselor
thompson
is
exactly
right.
We
all
have
memories
of
golden
mile.
My
mom
worked
at
consumer's
distributing
that's.
You
know
it
was
funny.
We
were
all
talking
about
that
on
facebook
and
how
well
that
that
company
would
do
during
covid.
A
But
you
know
I
also
shopped
at
bargain
heralds
that
was
in
the
plaza
there,
and
I
remember
when
the
superstore
opened-
and
I
was
just
in
awe
that
a
grocery
store
could
be
that
big
and
sell
something
besides
groceries.
So
you
know,
golden
mile
is,
is
a
really
a
central
focal
point
of
scarborough.
It
is
so
important
that
the
queen
cut
the
ribbon
to
open
it
when
it
initially
opened-
and
you
know
fortunately
with
having
w
mayor
thompson
and
councillor
crawford,
spearheading
this
great
initiative
to
revitalize
this
area.
A
I'm
pretty
sure
that
we
can
maybe
get
her
majesty
back
to
cut
the
ribbon
again.
So
I
think
we
can
make
that
a
lofty
goal
for
all
of
us
and
thank
you
so
much
to
the
counselors,
the
local
counselors
that
are
working
through
this
very
difficult
and
long
process.
But
I'm
sure
we
will
all
appreciate
the
hard
work
of
themselves
and
staff
pending.
No
other
speakers.
I
think
we
can
move
to
vote
on
kelsey
thompson's
two
items
that
he's
moved,
we'll
pull
them
up
one
at
a
time.
A
A
A
Crawford,
oh
sorry,
okay,
so
we'll
move
counselor
councillor
crawford,
we'll
move
it
we'll
change
that.
Okay!
So
then
we'll
vote
on
the
supplemental
report
when
screen
switches
back
all
those
in
favor.
All
those
opposed
item
carries
motion
as
a
story.
The
item,
as
amended
all
those
in
favor
all
those
opposed,
we'll
note
that
that
is
unanimous.
Thank
you
very
much
everybody
and
those
of
you
that
attended
on
the
line
to
speak
to
this
important
item
for
scarborough
18.1.
A
Q
Q
Speeding
was
less
an
issue
when
brooks
road.
Public
school
was
at
the
east
end
of
this
stretch
of
keeler.
There
were
fewer
houses
prior
to
the
new
developments,
and
people
were
more
cautious
of
speeding
in
a
school
zone.
For
the
petition
we
were
able
to
contact
a
member
of
almost
every
household,
principally
affected
by
the
speeding
on
keeler,
those
on
keeler
itself
and
the
three
crescents
to
the
north
side,
tweed
rock
eden
mills
and
sand
rift,
resulting
in
a
petition
being
signed
by
92.3
percent
of
the
households
on
these
streets
of
212
households.
Q
197
signed
the
petition.
There
was
not
one
household
we
contacted
on
keeler
boulevard
that
was
opposed
to
the
speed
bumps,
but
there
were
two
that
we
never
found
home.
The
traffic
study
showed
that
the
85th
percentile
was
55
kilometers
an
hour
in
a
40
kilometer
zone.
Absolute
proof.
We
have
a
speeding
problem
on
keeler.
The
outliers
of
this
data
are
the
real
concern.
There
are
vehicles,
traveling,
70
and
80
kilometers
an
hour
on
this
quiet
residential
street
studies
by
u.s
national
traffic
safety.
Q
A
speed
at
which
40
percent
of
those
hit
are
killed
is
well
below
the
85th
percentile
of
the
keeler
data,
the
residents
on
the
streets
of
tweed,
rock
eden,
mills
and
sand
drift,
as
well
as
the
north
side
of
keeler
all
have
to
cross
keeler
to
get
to
the
park,
the
playground
and
the
post
box.
There
is
no
crosswalk
on
this
street
and
it
is
dangerous
to
cross
this
street,
especially
for
the
elderly
and
children.
Q
It
is
even
disturbing
to
walk
on
the
sidewalk
of
killer
when
you're
a
mere
10
feet
from
cars
zooming
by
the
center
for
transportation,
research
and
education
at
iowa.
State
university
project
0073
has
shown
that
speed
bumps
result
in
a
40
decrease
in
speed
for
most
vehicles,
more
so
for
excessive
speeders.
But,
most
importantly,
the
results
do
not
revert
over
time.
Q
Studies
by
european
commission
on
mobility
and
transport
have
shown
that
speed
bumps
cause
drivers
to
become
more
aware
of
their
surroundings
and
therefore
they
more
safely
share
the
road
with
pedestrians,
cyclists,
skateboarders
children
running
to
the
park
or
onto
the
street
to
retrieve
an
errand
soccer
ball
or
a
dog
following
his
nose
to
the
edge
of
the
curb
or
the
elderly
lady
crossing
to
the
post
box.
Yes,
speed
bumps
will
slow
traffic
and
prevent
serious
injury
or
fatality,
but
they
will
do
something
more
important.
Q
They
will
give
the
residents
their
community
back
as
keeler
slows
down.
More
people
will
walk
this
street
as
it
will
be
more
hospitable
to
them.
I
have
an
elderly
mother
and
we
don't
cross,
kill
her
to
sit
in
the
park
anymore
because
she
couldn't
get
out
of
the
way
of
a
car
if
she
ever
had
to
and
that's
an
injustice
caused
to
her
by
non-law-abiding
drivers.
Q
An
elderly
resident
who
has
lived
in
this
community
for
53
years
cannot
enjoy
her
own
park
anymore
because
she
doesn't
feel
safe
enough
crossing
keillor
to
get
into
it
and
she
is
not
the
only
one.
The
neighborhood
and
people's
behaviors
are
changing
response
to
the
worsening
situation
on
keeler.
This
is
the
most
insidious
aspect
of
the
speeding
problem
on
keeler.
Q
In
closing,
I
wish
to
mention
that
of
the
seven
households
who
refused
to
sign
our
petition
each
mentioned
the
fact
that
speed
bumps
either
do
not
work,
something
we
know
to
be
false.
They
do
work
and
that
they're
inconvenient,
which
we
can
all
agree
that
they
are.
There
is
only
one
perfect
solution
for
this
and
that's
the
driver's
slow
down
voluntarily.
It's
been
tried
and
it
has
never
happened.
The
situation
is
worsening
and
speed.
Q
Bumps
are
absolutely
necessary
here,
almost
all
of
the
residents
of
these
streets,
those
that
signed
our
petition
are
able
to
put
their
concern
for
their
neighbors
and
their
community,
be
of
above
their
personal
animus
for
speed.
Bumps
speed,
bumps
have
had
only
positive
effects
on
the
streets
of
blythwood
and
bayview
and
eglinton
area
and
falling
brook
in
the
beach
is
just
a
name
too.
Speeding
has
been
greatly
reduced
on
those
streets
and
making
a
much
safer
neighborhood.
Q
The
fact
that
keeler
lacks
the
2500
vehicles
per
day
is
the
only
warrant
not
satisfied
waiting
until
we
have
500
more
speeders
per
day
along
this
quiet
street
is
not
the
answer
this
community
is
looking
for,
and
we
are
very,
very
grateful
for
councillors.
Ainsley's
support
of
this
community
request.
Thank
you,
madam
chair
council
members
for
your
time
and
your
consideration.
B
Yeah,
I
don't
really
have
questions.
I
I
just
want
to
thank
the
deputy
for
for
being
online
this
morning
and
all
the
work
that
she
did
reaching
out
to
all
the
residents
in
the
community.
As
I
said,
I
don't
have
any
questions.
What
she
said
is
very
nicely
encapsulated
the
concerns
of
the
neighborhood
as
well
as
mine.
So
I
just
like
to
thank
her
for
all
of
her
work
spearheading
this
effort.
B
B
B
I
know
that
all
of
us
have
concerns
around
speeding
and
schedule.
My
monthly
town
hall
meetings,
speeding
in
any
given
neighborhood
is
the
number
one
concern
of
residents,
one
of
the
things
that
I've
been
trying
to
deal
with
in
43
division.
The
past
few
years
is.
We
only
have
two
dedicated
police
officers
that
do
full-time
speed
enforcement
and
traffic
operations
in
ward
43..
B
So
I'm
working
with
residents
to
look
at
alternatives
to
make
their
streets
safer.
I,
in
this
case
residents
have
we've
been:
we've
had
police
traffic
enforcement
over
the
years
we've
looked
at
crosswalks
stop
signs
killer.
Boulevard
is
about
all
400
yards
long.
So
it's
a
very
long
straight
street.
As
the
deputy
mentioned,
it
did
have
a
public
school
on
it
until
a
few
years
ago,
when
it
was
closed
down
and
redeveloped
in
a
residential
neighborhood,
so
that
increased
the
level
of
vehicles
in
the
community,
the
school
being.
B
There
did
slow
traffic
down
on
keeler,
but
that
school
is
gone
now,
so
residents
have
asked
for
speed
bumps
on
keeler
once
the
petition
was
brought
forward.
I
also
sent
a
flyer
to
all
the
adjacent
streets,
alerting
them
to
the
fact
that
there
was
a
petition
for
speed
bumps
on
this
street
and
the
vast
majority
of
residents
that
came
back
and
contacted
my
office
support
their
neighbors
on
keeler
and
are
fully
supportive
of
speed
bumps
as
well.
B
A
C
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair.
I
just
wanted
to
speak
in
support
of
the
deputy
and
cancer
ainslie.
It
wasn't
too
long
ago
that
we
are
always
mindful
or
concerned
about.
You
know,
speed,
hum
speed
bumps
on
in
our
community
because
of
the
concerns
that
we
had
around
fire
and
ambulance
services
and
so
on.
But
I
understand
now
that
certainly
the
fire
trucks
and
the
ambulance
services
will
get
to
their
calls
and
obviously,
as
quickly
as
possible,
to
be
able
to
assist
those
who
are
in
need.
C
Madam
chair,
I've
noticed,
and
I
think
we
all
have
a
tremendous
lack
of
concern-
lack
of
regards
that's
playing
out
on
our
streets
of
toronto
drivers
seeming
to
not
care
about
speed
limits
and
are
just
simply
blazing
away.
I
can't
tell
you
how
many
times
just
this
week,
where
I've
actually
been
traveling
the
speed
limit
in
neighborhoods.
C
We
are
working
with
staff
on
the
implementation
of
speed
bumps
on
a
street
in
my
ward,
which
is
people
are
using
bertrand
from
kennedy,
road
and
or
birchbound
and
they're,
speeding
to
through
the
neighborhood
there's
a
school
and
obviously
it's
residential
area.
So
the
time
has
actually
come.
As
council
rainsy
has
indicated.
One
of
the
top
issues
in
my
area
as
well
is
speeding
and
the
impact
of
traffic
and
we've
seen
the
impact
on
roadways.
C
We
wouldn't
have
to
introduce
these
type
of
measures,
but
regrettably,
and
it
isn't
just
simply
because
of
kelvin-
maybe
covet
has
heightened
it
and
so
on.
But
people
have
been
speeding
for
quite
some
time
and
they
continue
to
do
so.
With
the
you
know,
added
additional
complement
of
getting
the
new
police
units
as
well
as
utilizing
technology.
We
have
to
do
more
to
safeguard
and
protect
the
the
residents
in
our
in
our
community.
C
So
I
wholeheartedly
support
councillor
angie's
emotion,
and
I
do
think
that
we
all
should
because
we're
all
in
this
same
condition
where
people
don't
pay
attention
they're,
driving
too
fast
and
in
fact,
are
willing
to
overtake
you
whether
or
not
it's
in
a
school
zone
or
other
areas,
and
it
is
causing
a
problem
for
our
community.
So
I
think
that
we
need
to
do
more.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
R
Line
yes
good
morning,
thank
you,
madam
chair
community
council,
for
those
of
you
unfamiliar
this
section
of
the
feature
of
beach
grove
drive
is
a
relatively
long
windy
residential
road.
We
have
three
particularly
dangerous
blind
corners,
no
sidewalks
and
limited
lighting
as
well.
It's
it's
frankly,
just
simply
an
old
street
in
scarborough.
R
These
risks
have
been
exacerbated
by
the
lack
of
sidewalks
and
infrastructure
mentioned
before,
in
fact
it,
as
was
once
referred
to
me
by
a
city
staff
member
as
a
fun
road
to
drive
on
so
something
that
I
personally
didn't
take
very
lightly,
because
I
truly
believe
that
residential
streets
should
not
be
quote
unquote
fun,
although
not
this
year,
police
have
come
here
for
well
over
five
years.
What
I'm
sure
is
a
very
large
expense
to
the
city.
Those
efforts
absolutely
do
work,
although
they
are
short-lived
and
speed
picks
back
up
the
moment
they
leave.
R
This
tree
is
frankly
dangerous
to
have
a
family
on
we've.
Seen
multiple
close
calls
with
children
day
cares
and
just
kids
walk
into
william
miller
public
school
in
the
morning.
Personally,
this
kid's
very
close
to
home.
I
know
all
too
well
the
scars
that
speed
related
fatalities,
leaving
a
family
at
11.
I
lost
my
15
year
old
brother
to
an
accident
that
was
completely
unavoidable
or
sorry
completely
avoidable
related
to
speed.
R
So
I
realized
this
is
a
lot
of
contacts
for
basically
what
amounts
to
a
stop
sign
and
ensure.
I
wholeheartedly
agree
that
we
need
to
do
something
at
the
corner
of
beech,
grove
and
fergula
at
a
minimum.
We
believe
that
it
would
help
reduce
some
of
the
dangers
in
one
of
the
blind
corners
and
hopefully
put
a
small
dent
into
some
of
the
speed.
R
I
will
also
admit,
on
a
personal
level,
both
my
wife
and
I
now
work
for
rather
large
companies,
one
of
them
located
in
scarborough
and
through
kovid.
We've
now
confirmed
that
working
from
home
permanently
is
now
an
option,
and
I
will
admit
it
is
hard
for
us
to
consider.
Staying
in
areas
like
scarborough
as
a
20-something-year-old
family,
for
the
simple
fact
of
raising
children
here
has
become
what
I
believe
is
increasingly
difficult
to
justify
relative
to
newer
communities
such
as
ajax
or
durham
region.
R
A
A
A
Anyone
to
speak
to
this
item,
I'll
just
speak
quickly
on
this
item,
as
it
is
in
my
ward
beech
grove
is,
is
the
speeding
problem.
We
are
constantly
out
there
dropping
off
watch
your
speed
signs.
It's
disappointing
that
we're
not
able
to
put
automated
speed
enforcement
on
streets
that
don't
have
school
zones.
I
think
that
this
would
be
an
ideal
candidate.
I'm
hopeful
that
the
city
will
explore
how
they
can
start
to
expand
that
program
onto
streets
like
this.
We
have
put
in
the
watcher
speed
sign
on
numerous
occasions.
A
We've
been
told
that
speed
bumps
aren't
an
option
because
there
aren't
sidewalks.
So
we
have
to
worry
that
cars
will
try
to
weave
onto
the
edges
around,
so
it
could
actually
end
up
being
also
unsafe
for
pedestrians.
So
we
are
continuing
to
work
with
staff
on
on
what
we
can
do
in
beech
grove.
I
want
to
thank
the
community
for
their
ongoing
advocacy
on
the
street.
A
I
tell
them.
We
can
only
sell
problems
that
we
know
about.
We
get
complaints
about
speeding,
we've
passed
those
on
to
toronto
police
regularly.
I
know
they
have
been
out
there
for
enforcement,
but,
as
counselor
ainslie
said
earlier
on,
there
simply
just
isn't
enough
speed
enforcement
officers
in
the
city,
so
this
is
a
work
in
progress.
It
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
I'd
like
to
thank
the
deputy
for
taking
the
time
out
of
his
day
to
come
here
and
speak
to
us
today.
B
A
B
Sorry,
it's
counselor
ainsley.
Sorry
with
your
indulgence
and
my
colleagues
indulgence.
Could
I
just
I
wanted
to
ask
just
one
question
of
transportation
staff.
I
wanted
to
understand
how
they're
rolling
out
the
speed
limit
reductions
around
schools.
I
have
a
street
in
my
ward
with
a
high
school
on
it.
The
speed
limit
was
reduced
to
30
kilometers
on
an
adjacent
street
with
a
grade
school.
The
speed,
limit's
still
40
kilometers
and
it
hasn't
been
reduced.
I
just
like
to
understand
how
they're
rolling
out
that
program.
A
So
I
know
we
went
through
questions.
I
think
we'll
reward
your
question.
So
that's
also
related
to
this
item,
as
there
is
no
school
there,
but
how
are
we
rolling
out
the
speed
reductions
in
areas
with
schools
versus
not
schools
on
streets
like
this?
Maybe
that
keeps
it
in
scope.
Can
transportation
answer
that.
N
N
So
speed
is
being
addressed
based
on
the
road
classification,
arterials
collectors
and
then
locals,
based
on
the
roads
with
the
highest
speeds
coming
down.
First,
so
right
now,
major
arterials
have
all
been
completed.
The
minor
arterials
and
the
collectors
I
believe,
are
in
progress.
I'm
sorry,
I
don't
have
the
exact
timing
and
then
they're
going
to
start
the
strategy
for
the
local
roads
also
adopted
the
division.
Zero
program
was
a
different
bit
of
a
strategy
for
signage
and
on
local
roads.
Where
we're
going
to
community
based
signage.
N
What
that
means
is
there
will
be
signage
at
the
entrances
along
with
pavement
markings
to
each
community,
so
maybe
not,
every
street
will
be
signed,
but
there'll
be
a
new
signage
where
once
you
enter
the
computer
says,
this
is
a
30
kilometer
zone,
for
example,
and
local
roads
such
as
these
roads,
you
just
discussed,
would
be
going
down
to
30
and
that
will
be
rolled
out
over
five
years.
I
believe,
beginning
in
2021
is
what
the
vision,
zero
council
report.
N
A
L
Good
morning
councillors
I
live
at
57
pegasus
trail
with
my
family.
So
thank
you
for
having
me
here.
I
like
to
start
off
by
saying
that
our
intention
was
to
always
plant
another
suitable
tree.
We
do
care
about
this
neighborhood
and
would
like
to
improve
the
quality
of
the
urban
life.
I
want
to
share
some
notes
from
my
neighbor
bob
who's
also
affected
by
this
tree.
The
pine
tree
was
planted
55
years
ago
by
the
previous
owner,
with
no
thought
of
how
large
the
tree
would
grow.
L
It
is
a
wild
tree
much
too
large
for
our
subdivision.
It
was
taken
from
a
forest
in
the
cottage
country.
The
previous
owner
has
told
me
on
several
occasions
that
he
wanted
to
remove
it
for
the
same
reasons,
but
the
expense
of
doing
this
was
more
than
he
wanted
to
spend
at
the
time.
According
to
my
neighbor
bob,
the
tree
roots
had
started
to
show
on
our
lawns.
During
the
last
five
to
six
years.
Just
last
year,
we
had
them
cut
for
him
as
it
extended
over
to
the
his
side
of
the
lawn.
L
We
have
noticed
that
ever
since
we
moved
here,
no
matter
how
hard
we
try
to
take
care
of
our
lawn,
the
grass
does
not
appear
as
healthy
as
the
rest
of
the
neighborhood.
The
pines
are
extremely
difficult
to
clean
up.
We
even
had
a
lot
of
pines
getting
blown
over
our
roof
and
to
our
backyard.
We
are
constantly
unclogging
the
eave
straw
from
overflowing,
and
it
isn't
very
practical
practical
to
do
this
all
year
round.
All
trees
have
debris,
but
this
specific
one
has
sap
it
acts
like
glue
and
it
gets
all
over
our
vehicles.
L
It's
been
very
rough
trying
to
remove
this
without
damaging
the
paint
on
my
car.
I
did
go
over
the
notes
and
it
did
mention
that
the
branches
do
not
hang
over
the
driveway.
I
can
send
you
another
picture.
The
branches
do
extend
over
the
driveway
and
the
pines
and
sap
do
get
all
over
the
driveway
and
vehicles,
especially
when
there's
rain
and
wind,
so
my
mother
has
always
had
pine
pine
pollen
and
pine
night
allergies,
and
it's
gotten
worse
over
the
past
year.
L
She
has
a
hard
time,
especially
during
the
spring,
and
it's
very
uncomfortable
for
her.
It's
very
unfortunate
to
have
this
tree
in
our
front
yard.
With
all
these
issues
that
it
had
caused
my
family,
although
trees
do
provide
better
quality
of
neighborhoods,
we
have
not
seen
any
benefits
from
this
one.
We
hope
you
can
understand
everything
from
our
perspective
and
grant
us
our
wish
of
replacing
this
country
with
a
more
suitable
tree.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
B
B
L
So
when
we
actually
bought
the
house,
no,
this
was
not
mentioned
to
us,
but
we
quickly
realized
as
soon
as
we
moved
in
and
just
talking
to
our
neighbor
bob.
He
because,
because
it's
actually
it's
been
bothering
him
as
well
he's.
He
had
told
us
that
this
tree
has
been
issued
for
a
long
time,
even
for
the
previous
owner,
as
they
were
really
good
friends.
But
we
didn't
know
at
the
time
when
we
purchased
the
house.
B
L
So
the
branches
that
are
going
over
the
driveway
are
the
like:
the
tallest
branches.
It's
almost
it's
impossible
for
us
to
do
it
on
our
own.
My
parents
have
been
cutting
the
branches
that
are
like
they
are
able
to
reach
with
the
ladder,
but
the
ones
at
the
very
top.
We
were
not
able
to
cut,
and
those
are
the
ones
that
are
actually
going
over
the
driveway.
L
Yeah,
so
I
asked
you
to
see
that
picture.
It
actually
cuts
off
from
the
driveway
point.
So
I
don't
know
if
you
can
see
the
top
branches,
but
even
from
the
angle
from
my
house,
you
can
see
that
the
some
of
the
top
branches
they
are
leaning
over
at
least
the
back
of
the
driveway
and
that's.
And
since
we
have
four
cars,
we
do
stack
up
our
cars,
so
it
does
still
get
all
over
the
cars,
at
least
like
the
back
two
cars.
B
B
D
B
I
A
A
Okay,
all
those
opposed
okay,
the
staff
recommendations.
Carrie.
Thank
you.
That
concludes
the
agenda.
We
have
some
housekeeping.
Okay,
I
will
put
them
up.
Councillor
lie.
Can
I
have
you
move
the
first
one,
we'll
just
change?
My
name?
Sorry
didn't
realize
my
name
came
up
on
them.
So
counselor
lie.
Are
you
happy
to
move
that.
