As the city filed it

The encroachment consists of a glass and steel canopy structure and a raised terrace which is in contravention of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 743, Streets and Sidewalks, Use Of.

Specifically, the stainless steel canopy support structure and terrace structure does not fall within the list of delegated permitted encroachments. Although the glass and steel canopy and raised terrace is not on the list of permitted encroachments under Municipal Code Chapter 743, staff is of the opinion that it will not have a negative impact on the public right-of-way for pedestrians, vehicular traffic, or City maintenance on the affected streets. Therefore, Transportation Services is requesting authority to negotiate and enter into an encroachment agreement with the property owners, subject to conditions.
