On the agenda

As the city filed it

I am writing to request your support in reopening Item TE12.47, adopted by the Toronto and East York Community Council on January 8, 2020, and to rescind the authority for the installation of an all-way stop control at the intersection of Poplar Plains Road and Clarendon Avenue (north intersection). The South Hill Residents Association, who reached out to my office requesting the all-way stop control, have subsequently explained that the request was misunderstood, and the intention was not to have two all-way stop controls only 35 meters apart from each other-as there is an existing all-way control stop at the south intersection of Poplar Plains Road and Clarendon.

The Association's request was to have the all-way stop control at the south intersection moved further north. Having both controls creates redundancy and will negatively impact a number of neighbours as traffic flow will be impeded, and driveways blocked. There has been a huge uproar from residents after hearing about the proposed installation of the all-way stop control at the north intersection, and the Association has conceded that there wasn't enough community consultation. The Association and residents are thus calling for this to be rescinded to allow for further consultations.

Staff recommended

It is recommended that Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Re-open Item TE12.47, entitled "All-Way Stop Control - Poplar Plains Road and Clarendon Avenue - North Intersection". 2.

Not authorize all-way stop control at the intersection of Poplar Plains Road and Clarendon Avenue (north intersection)."
