The applicant is seeking permission to maintain an existing wood fence located along the rear perimeter lot line of the property.

Ryding Avenue - Removal of Traffic Island Following One-Way Conversion
In 2021, residents of Ryding Avenue submitted a petition requesting the installation of a traffic island on the north side of the street, east of Cobalt Avenue, to deter westbound cut-through traffic between Keele Street and Jane Street. On March 6, 2024, during a community consultation for the proposed development at 87 Ethel Avenue, residents raised ongoing concerns regarding traffic volumes on Ryding Avenue and the anticipated increase in vehicular activity, particularly with respect to pedestrian and neighbourhood safety. In response, a petition was submitted requesting the conversion of Ryding Avenue to a one-way eastbound street. On April 30, 2025, a motion was adopted to implement the one-way eastbound conversion. With this measure now in place and effectively reducing through traffic, the existing traffic island is no longer required and may be removed.
The Etobicoke York Community Council: 1. Authorized the removal of the traffic island on Ryding Avenue at Cobalt Avenue. 2. Subject to approval of and in conjunction with the removal of the traffic island on Ryding Avenue at Cobalt Avenue: a. Rescinded the entry prohibition for westbound traffic on Ryding Avenue east of a point 20 metres east of Cobalt Avenue (bicycles excepted). b.

Hillside Avenue and Royal York Road Pedestrian Crossing Protection Investigation
Dear Chair and Members of Etobicoke York Community Council, My office recently received a petition with over 90 signatures from Mimico residents requesting a pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Hillside Ave and Royal York Road to better support access to John English Junior Middle School and Mimico Memorial Park. In 2024, Transportation Services reviewed this request, however the intersection did not meet the City's technical criteria for installing a protected pedestrian crossing. Given continued community interest and changes in the area over the past couple of years, I recommend that Transportation Services conduct a new review of the intersection and report back on the feasibility of installing a crossing at this location.
The Etobicoke York Community Council: 1. Requested that the Director, Enforcement and Street Management, Transportation Services, investigate the feasibility of installing pedestrian crossing protection on Royal York Road at Hillside Avenue.

The Canadian Helen Keller Centre's (CHKC) affordable and supportive development project, designed to be accessible for the deaf-blind community, is progressing well and will soon reach the occupancy stage. Located at 150 Eighth Street, this 56-unit residential development will be home to a significant deaf-blind population. At occupancy, there will be a sudden localized increase in the demographic of people who need and rely on pedestrian accessibility and safety measures so that they can safely navigate their neighbourhood. The purpose of this motion is to recognize that this local demographic change is imminent, and to initiate the necessary intersection improvements for pedestrians to welcome these new residents to New Toronto, prioritizing their safety and ability to integrate into the local area.
The Etobicoke York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, review intersections and pedestrian crossings within an 800m radius of 150 Eighth Street, with particular consideration for the locations identified in Attachment 1 to the letter (July 6, 2026) from Councillor Amber Morley, with the purpose of implementing Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS), Tactile Walking Surface Indicators (TWSI), and any other improvements to support a safe and accessible pedestrian experience for the deaf-blind community.

Manitoba Street Parking Restriction and Review of Traffic Calming
Dear Chair and Members of Etobicoke York Community Council, Residents have expressed concerns about unsafe road conditions on Manitoba Street, between Grand Avenue and Legion Road, caused by both speeding vehicles coming off the Gardiner Expressway and sightline obstructions caused by vehicles parking along both sides of Manitoba Street. The parked vehicles create challenges for motorists exiting the westerly driveway and cause unsafe pedestrian crossing conditions. To mitigate the sightline concerns, I am recommending expanding the "no stopping" regulations around the westerly driveway. To improve pedestrian safety and slow down traffic, I am recommending the installation of speed cushions on Manitoba Street, between Grand Avenue and Legion Road.
The Etobicoke York Community Council: 1. Prohibited stopping at all times on the north side of Manitoba Street, from a point 78 metres east of Grand Avenue to a point 12 metres further east. 2. Requested the Director, Enforcement and Street Management, Transportation Services, to investigate the feasibility of installing speed cushions on Manitoba Street between Legion Road North and Grand Avenue.

Reducing the Speed Limit on Elana Drive
I would like to add the following item to today's agenda; recommendation to change the speed limit on Elana Drive from 40km\h to 30km\h. Elana Drive is located near Jane and Finch and is frequently used as a short cut to navigate around the busy Jane/Finch intersection. As a result, excessive traffic and speeding occur on Elana Drive, dangerously impacting residents. Thus, I am recommending that the speed limit on Elana Drive be reduced from 40km/h to 30km/h.
The Etobicoke York Community Council: 1. Reduced the speed limit from 40 km/h to 30 km/h on Elena Drive, between Finch Avenue West and Firgrove Crescent. 2. Subject to Etobicoke York Community Council approval of Part 1 above, Etobicoke York Community Council authorized the amendment of Schedule XLV (Part 1) to City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 950, Traffic and Parking, to remove Elana Drive between Firgrove Crescent and Finch Avenue West, from being excluded from the Designated Area such that this portion of highway will then be included within the corresponding designated area in Column 1 in Schedule XLV (Part 1).
