Authorization to Release Section 37 Funds from the Development at 21 Old Mill Road to Lakeshore Arts for Mural Art at Stephen Drive - by Councillor Mark Grimes, seconded by Councillor Mike Colle

The requirement for funding is that the mural must be strongly associated with a theme based on our community's heritage. The Sunnylea-Stonegate Neighbourhood Association's theme is centered on the Humber River being honoured as a Canadian Heritage River, which will comply with the requirements of the funding. Section 37 funds have been secured and received from the development at 21 Old Mill Road for Heritage improvements along the Humber River. The intent of this Motion is to transfer a total of $3,000 of Section 37 funds from the development to Lakeshore Arts to provide one-time capital funding for the purpose of creating a mural using the South Humber Park and Humber River as inspiration. The initial mural concept is a site-specific design honouring the natural environment right next to the mural site. By representing and painting the Humber River and its flora and fauna that inhabit the Sunnylea-Stonegate neighbourhoods, the mural will celebrate this Canadian Heritage River and the community's relationship with it.

direct the funds to be forwarded to Lakeshore Arts upon the signing of an undertaking by Lakeshore Arts that governs the use of the funds and the financial reporting requirements.
