As the city filed it

I'm writing today to request your support in rescinding the turning restrictions that were installed on Hillsdale Avenue East prior to occupancy at 2131 Yonge Street (Art Shoppe Condominium). Just prior to occupancy in 2020, there was concern amongst residents and the South Eglinton and Davisville Ratepayers' Association (SEDRA) that traffic exiting out of the southern driveway of Art Shoppe Condos would cause significant traffic infiltration in the community east of Yonge.

Upon reviewing the traffic volumes in spring 2022 undertaken by members of the condo found that traffic was 20% less than what was projected by the developer.

My office has received confirmation from SEDRA that they are in accordance with this proposal.
