On the agenda

As the city filed it

In January, the Bloor-Yorkville Business Improvement Area was provided with the opportunity to purchase additional tables and seating for the Village of Yorkville Park to continue to support local residents and customers to the area to enjoy the Park. This furniture is unique to the Park, and matches the existing infrastructure in the Park. In an effort to ensure that we could get these pieces installed before the warm weather returns, the Business Improvement Area made the purchase.

Over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen historical numbers of people take to our parks and other outdoor spaces to share meals and see their friends and loved ones. Providing more spaces for people to comfortably sit and relax, or enjoy their purchase or meal is a service we must continue to provide and expand. The Business Improvement Area Office has worked with the local Councillor to identify a suitable source of funding and will work to ensure that the Bloor-Yorkville Business Improvement Area is reimbursed for the purchase of the City-owned infrastructure.
