On the agenda

As the city filed it

I am writing to you to request Community Council's support for a motion that would allow for traffic flow improvements on Foxbar Road requested by the community. The reason this is a member's motion rather than a staff report is the time-sensitive nature of the requested changes, as they are connected to the completion of a condominium development. The changes that we are requesting were agreed upon by the local residents on Foxbar and the developer during the development review process.

As the new condominium development at 129 St. Clair Avenue West is nearing completion and its streetscape work is imminent, I am moving this motion to instate the already agreed upon left-turn prohibitions from both of the development's driveways. These changes are reflected in recommendations #1 and #2. Additionally, back in 2015 and 2016, by-law changes were passed to address traffic problems on the street, but were never implemented. In the meantime, the community has expressed interest in other traffic management options, which I am working closely with Transportation Services to bring forward next year. Staff have asked that we rescind these previous by-law changes that had not been implemented but are still on record. These changes are reflected in recommendations #3, #4, and #5.
