The decision
2025-06-25 · Toronto City Council · adopted
As filed
City Council on June 25 and 26, 2025, adopted the following: 1. City Council direct the Chief Engineer and Executive Director, Engineering and Construction Services and the General Manager, Transportation Services, to remove the proposed new sidewalk construction projects on Noranda Drive, Monarchdale Avenue, Westchester Road and Parkchester Road from the 25ECS-RD-104LR contract for local road resurfacing.
On the agenda
As the city filed it
This motion proposes an amendment to construction project 25ECS-RD-104LR, which involves local road resurfacing and sidewalk installation in the Brookhaven neighbourhood, specifically on Noranda Drive, Monarchdale Avenue, Westchester Road, and Parkchester Road, scheduled for the Fall of 2025. While project notices were distributed to impacted residents, inviting feedback via phone or email, I do not consider this process to constitute meaningful community consultation.

As such, I directed staff to organize an in-person community meeting focused on the sidewalk installation component of the project. The meeting was held on June 10, 2025, and was well attended, with 72 residents participating. Transportation staff provided an overview of the project and documented community feedback. At the conclusion of the meeting, I conducted a show-of-hands vote on a street-by-street basis regarding the proposed sidewalk installation. The results were clear: 1 in favour, 71 opposed. In light of this overwhelming opposition, I am requesting that the sidewalk installation component of the project be removed, while proceeding with the planned road resurfacing and remaining construction activities.
Staff recommended
