On the agenda

As the city filed it

An application has been submitted to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario for a liquor licence for the premises at 2285 Dundas Street West, operating as The Fry Dundas West (the "Premises"). The application is for an indoor area with a proposed capacity of 20 indoor seats. This Motion requests that City Council advise the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario that the application for a liquor licence at the Premises is not in the public interest having regard to the needs and wishes of the municipality in which the Premises are located, unless certain conditions, addressing the concerns of the community, are attached to the licence.

The Premises is located in close proximity to residential units. There are concerns that an establishment with a liquor licence can cause noise and other disturbances to residents in the area. If certain conditions are attached to the licence, these concerns may be mitigated. Under no circumstance should the Premises be granted a liquor sales license without conditions attached. This matter is considered urgent as the deadline for objections is June 10, 2022.
