City Council on June 14 and 15, 2023, adopted the following: 1. City Council exempt curb lane café permit area for 1068 Yonge Street, The Rebel House, from the requirements of Section 742-10.2A(2) of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafés, Parklets and Marketing Displays.
On the agenda
As the city filed it
Rebel House, located at 1068 Yonge Street, had submitted an application for a curb lane café. Following a feasibility assessment by CaféTO staff it was determined that their café would interfere with delivery vehicle parking zones and therefore not be compliant with City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafés, Parklets and Marketing Displays. The obstruction of the delivery loading zone resultant of a CaféTO curb lane café would not represent an excessive impediment the adjacent local businesses due to the existence and accessibility of Paul Hahn lane, which runs from Gibson Ave to Roxborough St W.

and serves as the primary delivery lane for area businesses. Additionally, the community has expressed that the restaurant patios along this area of Yonge Street were an enhancement to the street over the last two years and represent a great value to the businesses and community of the neighbourhood. This motion would provide the pathway to exempt Rebel House from the delivery zone requirement of Municipal Code Chapter 742, Sidewalk Cafes, Parklets and Marketing Displays, and allow them to install a curb lane café on Yonge Street. This motion is urgent as City Council approval is required to enable the installation of these CaféTO patios within a reasonable timeframe.
