On the agenda
As the city filed it
This Motion is to direct the General Manager, Transportation Services, to require the owners of 135 Glen Road to remove their large wall and other encroachments on city property, on the grounds that the encroachments were constructed contrary to the Ontario Heritage Act, that they are inconsistent with the Rosedale Heritage Conservation Area and that they reduce visibility at the corner of Glen Road and Whitney Avenue.

The owners have constructed a large wall and other items that encroach on city property. The encroachment permit requires the owners to remove the encroachments on the city's request. The owners were advised in writing in January 2025 that they require a Heritage Act Permit, but they have not applied for one. This flagrant breach of the Ontario Heritage Act has created widespread anger in the community.
Staff recommended
Councillor Dianne Saxe, seconded by Councillor Josh Matlow, recommends that: 1. City Council direct the General Manager, Transportation Services, to require the owners of 135 Glen Road to remove all of the encroachments they have constructed on City property.
