Dupont and Christie Intersection Improvements
The intersection of Dupont Street and Christie Street is one that has historically been a source of concern for local residents with the number of vehicles passing through the intersection at high speeds and minimal distance from the sidewalk to the speeding cars. In late October, a resident in Ward 11, Jill LeClair, lost her life due to these circumstances. This death is entirely preventable and future, similar ones could be avoided if the City of Toronto allocates substantially more funding toward Vision Zero and accelerated safe intersection design. I have personally received concerns for years dating back to 2012, but the almost yearly requests for intervention often did not meet the warrants. This is an unacceptable approach to road safety. Moving forward, we mustn't wait for a tragedy to occur before we take action. We must ensure that our Transportation Services budget is allocated to improving conditions for ALL road users and ensure safety is the driver of our design. In addition to the recommendations below, I have also formally re-requested the installation a red light camera at this intersection, as well as a review of bollards to protect vulnerable road users.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, to conduct a traffic control signal review at the intersection of Yarmouth Road and Christie Street, and report back to Toronto and East York Community Council 2. Directed the Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, to implement a westbound left-turn phase that will operate during the morning and afternoon rush period at the intersection of Dupont Street and Christie Street. 3. Directed the Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, to review the feasibility of installing automated speed enforcement and automated red light camera at the intersection of Christie Street and Dupont Street.

Parking Amendments - Huron Street
Residents have been contacting my office with concerns about the lack of available on-street parking spaces around the Huron Street and Dupont Street area. Residents without driveway or laneway access are reliant upon public on-street parking, and often circulate the area unsuccessfully in search of available spaces. While this is the reason we have parking zones, and it is understood we will never have enough street parking for all our residents as density increase, but we should still be looking to create safe options for parking where available. A section on the east side of Huron Street, north of Bernard Street, was identified to have the potential for increasing on-street parking capacity. A review by Transportation Services Staff confirmed that additional on-street parking spaces could be accommodated.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Amended the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times, on the east side of Huron Street, between a point 30.5 metres north of Bernard Avenue and a point 30.5 metres south of Bernard Avenue, to be in effect from Bernard Avenue and a point 30.5 metres south. 2. Amended the existing two hour maximum parking period in effect from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the east side of Huron Street, between a point 30.5 metres north of Bernard Avenue and Dupont Street, to be in effect from Bernard Avenue and Dupont Street.

Foxbar Road - Traffic Management and Turning Prohibitions
I am writing to you to request Community Council's support for a motion that would allow for traffic flow improvements on Foxbar Road requested by the community. The reason this is a member's motion rather than a staff report is the time-sensitive nature of the requested changes, as they are connected to the completion of a condominium development. The changes that we are requesting were agreed upon by the local residents on Foxbar and the developer during the development review process. As the new condominium development at 129 St. Clair Avenue West is nearing completion and its streetscape work is imminent, I am moving this motion to instate the already agreed upon left-turn prohibitions from both of the development's driveways. These changes are reflected in recommendations #1 and #2. Additionally, back in 2015 and 2016, by-law changes were passed to address traffic problems on the street, but were never implemented. In the meantime, the community has expressed interest in other traffic management options, which I am working closely with Transportation Services to bring forward next year. Staff have asked that we rescind these previous by-law changes that had not been implemented but are still on record. These changes are reflected in recommendations #3, #4, and #5.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Prohibited westbound left turns at Foxbar Road and the driveway/vehicular access located on the east side of Foxbar Road at a point approximately 32 metres south of St. Clair Avenue West. 2. Prohibited westbound left turns at Foxbar Road and the driveway/vehicular access located on the east side of Foxbar Road at a point approximately 52 metres south of St. Clair Avenue West. 3. Rescinded the entry prohibition in effect at all times for northbound through traffic (emergency vehicles and bicycles excepted), on Foxbar Road, at a point 85 metres south of St. Clair Avenue West. 4. Rescinded the entry prohibition in effect at all times for southbound through traffic (emergency vehicles and bicycles excepted), on Foxbar Road, at a point 85 metres south of St. Clair Avenue West. 5. Designated Foxbar Road, between Avenue Road and a point 69 metres south of St. Clair Avenue West, for one-way southbound and westbound traffic only.

Realignment of Permit Area 8D to exclude 1285 Queen Street East
I am writing to you today about a new 6 storey concrete condo with 69 residential units and below grade parking at 1285 Queen St. E. The local permit parking area is at 86 percent capacity.

Request to demolish the Residential Dwelling Unit - 995 Kingston Road
This staff report is about a matter for which the Toronto and East York Community Council has delegated authority to make a final decision. In accordance with Section 33 of the Planning Act and the City of Toronto Municipal Code, Ch. 363, Article 6 "Demolition Control," the application for the interior alteration resulting in incidental demolition of an existing residential unit in a mixed used building at 995 Kingston Road (Application No. 20 195745 BLD 00 BA) is being referred to the Toronto and East York Community Council for consideration to refuse or grant the application, including any conditions, if any, to be attached to the permit application because demolition incidental to the interior alterations is being proposed where, after alteration, the property will not be used for the same use because the residential use will be removed from the building.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Approved the application to demolish the vacant residential dwelling unit at 995 Kingston Road without any conditions.
Staff recommendation as filed

At its meeting of October 27, 2020, City Council approved an exemption for the implementation of permit parking on Coxwell Avenue, between Eastwood Road and Dundas Street East, from the requirements of subsection 925-4B of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 925, Permit Parking, through Item TE19.57. Subsection 925-4B, provides that: Where permit parking is not currently available and where a petition requesting permit parking signed by the residents of a minimum of 25% of the total number of residential premises having a residential address on the street or the flank of the street is submitted to the General Manager, a poll shall be conducted in accordance with Chapter 190, Polling and Notification, to determine if the residents wish to have permit parking on their road or area, as the case may be. In the event of a positive polling result, the General Manager shall report such result to the appropriate community council, which community council under delegated authority, shall be authorized to pass any necessary by-laws to implement permit parking on the road or area. In the event of a negative result, permit parking shall not be extended to the road or area, and no further permit parking poll shall be conducted for a period of two years. Coxwell Avenue, between Eastwood Road and Dundas Street East is presently not licensed for permit parking. Adding this block of Coxwell Avenue to the permit parking program would allow residents to obtain a residential on-street parking permit and provide them with the ability to legally park overnight The proposed change will not affect daytime stopping conditions along the east side of the street. While permit holders will be able to park beyond the 1HR currently in place for 9:00am-4:00pm on weekdays, the No Stopping during the 4:00-6:00pm rush hour will remain the same. This update will also allow all 9C permit holders to access the proposed parking spots overnight.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Amended Schedule A of City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 925, Permit Parking, to incorporate the east side of Coxwell Avenue, between Eastwood Drive and Dundas Street East, as part of area 9C, under the operating hours of 12:00 midnight to 7:00 a.m., 7 days a week.

Request to Re-open Item TE19.52: Parking Amendments - Market Street
Last month, Toronto and East York Community Council passed parking amendments on the west side of Market Street, between Front Street East and The Esplanade, to allow existing patios to remain until November 15. The St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood Business Improvement Area (BIA) has requested extending these amendments on behalf of these patios this year in response to continued struggles created by COVID-19. Following the Toronto and East York Community Council meeting in October that permitted the Market Street patios to remain until November 15, restrictions on indoor dining were reinstated by the Province in response to COVID-19. The St. Lawrence Market Neighbourhood BIA has requested that the City permit these patios to remain over the winter, to allow the adjacent restaurants their best opportunity to remain in business. Several years ago, Market Street in the St. Lawrence Neighbourhood was redesigned to become a curbless, flexible boulevard. During the winter, pay-and-display parking is introduced, while in the summer the parking is removed and bollards provided to create a more attractive streetscape that can be more easily closed for events. Transportation Services staff have raised safety concerns with allowing the bollards to remain without further intervention, such as additional barriers to protect pedestrians. Market Street slopes downward from Front Street East, and staff are concerned the existing bollards that are installed during the summer will not properly protect pedestrians should a vehicle slip on snow or ice. The BIA has proposed exploring solutions to properly protect pedestrians during the winter months on Market Street, but require more time to work with Transportation Services to come to a mutually acceptable solution. If the City does nothing, the existing Market Street patios will need to be removed on November 16 along with the temporary bollards, with pay-and-display parking then being reintroduced. This motion is intended to allow the patios to remain until December 15 this year, to allow the BIA time to work with Transportation Services on a solution that can be potentially brought to the December 2, 2020 meeting of Toronto and East York Community Council.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Re-opened Item TE19.52 entitled "Parking Amendments - Market Street" only with respect to Parts 1 and 2 of its decision. 2. Replaced Parts 1 and 2 with the following new parts: "1. Toronto and East York Community Council prohibit stopping at all times from April 1 to December 15, inclusive, on the west side of Market Street, between The Esplanade and Front Street East." "2. Toronto and East York Community Council amend the parking machine regulation in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday, and 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Sunday, from October 16 of one year to March 31 of the next following year, inclusive, for a maximum period of 3 hours and at a rate of $4.00 per hour on the west side of Market Street, between The Esplanade and Front Street East, to be in effect from December 16 of one year to March 31 of the next following year, inclusive."

Parking Amendments - Dovercourt Road
Area residents contacted my office because of the difficulty they are experiencing exiting the public lane bounded by Dovercourt Road, Delaware Avenue, Hallam Street and Shanly Street. These residents reported that their line of sight is being blocked by vehicles parking near the entrance of the public lane. Customers from the car rental company would occasionally use the entrance of the public lane to park, compounding the challenges. This creates a potentially unsafe condition and makes ingress/egress difficult for residents. I reached out to Traffic Operations and asked them to review these issues and make recommendations to address them. As a result of the investigation, and after having consulted with area residents about the proposal, I am recommending the removal of 1.5 parking spaces along Dovercourt Road, as outlined below.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council prohibit parking at all times on the east side of Dovercourt Road, between a point 118 metres south of Hallam Street and a point 29 metres further south.

Applications for an Encroachment Permit and Partial Patio Enclosure at 585 Church Street
The COVID-19 pandemic has struck many small businesses hard as owners adapt their services, and provide an enjoyable customer experience under strict health guidelines. We have seen many small businesses in the Downtown close due to small square footage and restrictions on indoor dining. While emergency programs like CafeTO have provided some relief, businesses cannot afford the steep Downtown rent. Like many other special character neighbourhoods, Church Wellesley Village has been hit particularly hard. Many long-standing businesses have been forced to shutter their doors completely. Church Espresso, located at 585 Church Street is a small cafe with very limited seating indoors with an existing outdoor patio on city-owned land. In order to make this outdoor option more hospitable into the cooler season, they have applied for a partial enclosure permit as well as an encroachment permit on the public right-of-way. Due to the time-sensitive nature of the pandemic, and continual loss of revenue, it is critical that this report is brought to Toronto and East York Community Council immediately.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the Executive Director, Municipal Licensing and Standards and the Chief Building Official and Executive Director, Toronto Building, in consultation with the City Solicitor, the General Manager, Transportation Services, and any other relevant city divisions to report their recommendations directly to the December 2, 2020 meeting of the Toronto East York Community Council on the applications for encroachment permits and partial patio enclosures from the owner of 585 Church Street.

Vision Zero: Improving Pedestrian Safety at Mill Street and Cherry Street
On November 4, 2020 a pedestrian was struck and killed at the corner of Mill Street and Cherry Street as she was crossing this intersection. Following protocol, Transportation Services staff will conduct a Vulnerable Road User review to assess and identify potential safety measures at this intersection. While we can not undo this tragic loss, the City of Toronto can review pedestrian safety improvements to support the vulnerable road users of this community. This tragic incident and ones like it, are too often. Vehicles, including construction vehicles, speed down local roads without due caution. When there are many construction sites, and many construction-related vehicles, this becomes a greater issue. While the City of Toronto endeavours towards Vision Zero, there are clear gaps that need to be addressed to ensure the road safety of our neighbourhoods. With several developments scheduled in the coming years, along Mill Street and nearby, each developer has the responsibility to ensure safety on their site, and adequate precautions for drivers as they maneuver local, unfamiliar roads. This can be facilitated by employing additional flagmen and using traffic wardens at key intersections. Mill Street and Cherry Street is a complicated intersection with separated streetcar tracks, medians and four lanes of traffic. This is a transit priority signalized intersection. Due to the complexity of this intersection, it is critical that the design supports pedestrian safety while clearly indicating that this is a residential area and drivers need to proceed with care. By reviewing this intersection and the subsequent corridors of Mill Street and Cherry Street, the City of Toronto can prioritize and support Vision Zero through a holistic look at this neighbourhood in transition.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the General Manager,Transportation Services review the intersection of Mill Street and Cherry Street to explore potential safety measures for pedestrians and report back in the first quarter of 2021. These safety measures can include but are not limited to: a. Zebra striping b. Additional traffic signs c. Review of the signalized intersection d. Traffic wardens e. Extending the 'Senior Zone' from The Esplanade f. Consider restricting right turns g. Automated Speed Cameras 2. Directed the General Manager, Transportation Services to work with contractors and developers in the area to provide additional flagmen at each construction site in the West Don Lands. 3. Directed the General Manager,Transportation Services in partnership with Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning and any relevant city divisions to provide a corridor safety study of Mill Street, by way of Parliament Street to Bayview Avenue as well as Cherry Street by way of Eastern Avenue to Mill Street and report back to the Toronto East York Community Council by the third quarter of 2021. 4. Directed the General Manager, Transportation Services present on the findings from the Vulnerable Road User Review at the Toronto and East York Community Council December 2, 2020 meeting.
