This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision. The Dalton Company Ltd. is renovating the existing community arts centre (Nia Centre for the Arts Incorporated) at 524 Oakwood Avenue.

Geary Avenue Mobility and Public Realm Strategy Update
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision, provided that it is not amended such that it varies with City Policy or by-laws. The Geary Works Planning Study, a comprehensive study and community vision for Geary Avenue, included a Mobility and Public Realm Strategy and provided ten (10) strategic directions for the right-of-way and streetscape on Geary Avenue. This report contains a status update on all ten strategic directions. This report also recommends the authorization of all-way compulsory stop controls at the intersections of: Salem Avenue North and Geary Avenue, Westmoreland Avenue North and Geary Avenue, Delaware Avenue North and Geary Avenue, and Somerset Avenue and Geary Avenue to take effect at the time of opening the new Geary Avenue Park segment of the Green Line. Warrant criteria were not met based on current traffic conditions. Future conditions anticipated to result from the construction of the new park include changing traffic patterns and increased presence of vulnerable road users accessing the park at these intersections. Transportation Services recommends these stop controls be introduced at that time to promote driver awareness of increased pedestrian and cyclist traffic associated with the new park, and to achieve efficiencies in the design and delivery of the new road signage as an integrated part of the park construction project.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Authorized an all-way compulsory stop control at the intersection of Geary Avenue and Salem Avenue North to take effect following the completion of construction of the Geary Avenue extension of the Green Line 2.

Pay-and-Display Parking - Lansdowne Avenue
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Lansdowne Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required. Transportation Services is requesting approval for the installation of on-street paid parking on Lansdowne Avenue, north of Bloor Street West. This request resulted from a review following the installation of cycle tracks last year on Bloor Street West, between Shaw Street and Runnymede Road. The cycle track installation reduced the supply of on-street parking and loading in the area. Transportation Services and Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) staff have reviewed streets intersecting Bloor Street West to convert locations with daytime time limit parking, overnight permit parking and no parking to paid, on-street parking. The review considered parking areas of high demand that are functionally safe, appropriate, and economically viable and included consultation with the local Business Improvement Areas (BIAs). The addition of new on-street paid parking will help serve local business parking demands and encourage regular turnover throughout the day to maximize parking available to patrons.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council authorize the parking regulation amendments to establish new on-street paid parking locations, as set out in Attachment 1 to the report (January 31, 2022) from the Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services.

Parking Amendments - Cosburn Avenue
As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Cosburn Avenue, City Council approval of this report is required. Transportation Services is recommending that the existing parking prohibition on the north side of Cosburn Avenue, in the vicinity of the underground garage ramp to 50 Cosburn Avenue, be upgraded to a standing prohibition. The proposed amendment will deter parking near the ramp by accessible permits holders and improve sightlines for vehicles and cyclists. During the course of the investigation, it was noted that there is a discrepancy between posted signs and the existing parking regulations. Recommendation 3 will correct this inconsistency.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council rescind the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the north side of Cosburn Avenue, between a point 61.5 metres east of Logan Avenue and a point 23 metres further east. 2.

Additional Traffic Calming - Milverton Boulevard
This staff report is about a matter that Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision. In response to a request from Toronto and East York Community Council, Transportation Services reviewed the need for an additional speed hump on Milverton Boulevard, between Monarch Park Avenue and Coxwell Avenue. The review disclosed the existing speed hump installation is appropriate and additional speed humps are not required. However, the review determined that a traffic island could be implemented mid-block on this section of Milverton Boulevard, to supplement the existing speed humps and to reinforce to motorists to reduce their speeds as they travel on this street.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Authorized the installation of a traffic calming island on the north side of Milverton Boulevard, between a point 117 metres east of Monarch Park Avenue and a point 4.3 metres further east. 2.

Stella Maris Catholic School Pick-Up/Drop-Off Zone
Recently, my office has received feedback from parents and administrators at Stella Maris Catholic School regarding ongoing concerns about parking at the school, specifically during pick-up and drop-off times. Stella Maris is located on Ascot Avenue, which turns into a one-way operation eastbound starting at St. Clair Gardens. The current parking regulation designates a maximum of 10 minutes to allow parents to park on the south side of Ascot Avenue in front of the school. However, the signed regulations fronting Stella Maris do not reflect the updated school hours, which has caused unsafe pick-up/drop-off conditions. As a result, I am requesting approval to amend the 10 minute parking regulation on the south side of Ascot Avenue to bring about greater flexibility, improved safety, and on-street parking availability as recommended below.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Amended the existing maximum 10 minute parking regulation in effect from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., 3:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, on the south side of Ascot Avenue, between a point 53.5 metres west of Dufferin Street and a point 16 metres further west to be in effect from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., 2:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.

Turn Prohibitions Buses Excepted - Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street
The installation of cycling tracks on Bloor Street West along with various other streets were approved by City Council, May 28, 2020 (CC21.20). As part of the cycle track installation, eastbound and westbound right turn restrictions between the hours of 7:00am to 6:00pm were enacted at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) was consulted by staff from the Cycling & Pedestrian Projects unit prior to enacting the turn prohibitions. However, recent service changes to the 402 Parkdale community bus route in conjunction with the pre-existing prohibitions has had a negative impact on service reliability. The TTC has since advised Transportation Services that the northbound left and eastbound right turns at Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street is utilized by the 402 Parkdale community bus, which operates 8 trips per day, week days only, between 9:30am to 6:00pm on an approximately one-hour headway. For this reason, the TTC has requested an exemption from the existing northbound left turn prohibition at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street. This prohibition has been in place for several years to prevent turning motorists from impeding through traffic in the shared lane. Given the infrequency of turns (approximately two) made by the 402 Parkdale bus at Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street in addition to operational concerns, I am recommending that the TTC be exempted from the turn prohibitions at the subject location, which in turn will create a more efficient and reliable transit system. Transportation Services has no objections to the proposed changes.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council amend the existing northbound left-turn prohibition in effect from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday at the intersection of Dufferin Street and Bloor Street West to be in effect from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday, Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) vehicles excepted. 2. City Council amend the existing eastbound right-turn prohibition in effect from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday, except Sunday at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dufferin Street to be in effect from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Saturday, except Sunday, Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) vehicles excepted. 3.

371 Bloor Street West is located on the south side of Bloor Street West, between Spadina Avenue and Huron Street and is owned and also occupied by the University of Toronto (U of T). The proposal from the owner is to renovate and expand the east portion of the building at Huron Street currently occupied by University of Toronto Schools (UTS) to modernize their facilities and to accommodate a new gymnasium and fitness centre, auditorium and three storeys of classroom space. The expansion represents an increase of approximately 3,400 square metres in gross floor area (GFA), and will include building on a portion of the existing public lane connecting to Washington Avenue. As a condition of the Site Plan Agreement (Site Plan Application 18 123996 STE 20 SA), the developer is required in advance of the anticipated date of first occupancy of the project, to enact bylaws with respect to the proposed passenger pick-up/drop-off area on the west side of Huron Street, south of Bloor Street West (fronting the school) that will accommodate approximately 6 to 7 vehicles.

Parking Amendments - Shaw Street
In November 2020, my office received a petition from residents of Shaw St between Harbord and Dewson requesting the extension of permit parking hours. A parking-by-permit-only restriction was requested during the evening rush hour, with the petition organizer telling us residents had difficulty finding parking during the evening rush hour. I received a petition signed by 60% of households on the street. Given the resident support, I directed staff to report to Community Council authorizing the extension of the on-street permit parking hours to the new hours of 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., 7 days a week. Since the change was implemented, I have received further feedback and input from residents of Shaw Street suggesting that this was not the change that was being sought. Residents have expressed they felt an extension in permit parking operating hours on Saturdays and Sundays were too restrictive and would like to see this rescinded as it will improve the parking flexibility for residents and their guests who visit over the weekend. My office then received counter petition from another 60% of the residents on the street wanting the new restrictions removed. Facing two surveys of equal support well above 50% asking for opposite things, my office drafted a letter and dropped it at every house proposing a compromise to the existing rules which will change the permit parking operating hours to the new hours of 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., 7 days a week and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday only. These new hours will still prioritize residents returning home during the evening rush hour on weekdays, but allow for greater flexibility over the weekends and holidays. In response, I had less than 25% of household on the street contact me letting me know about their opposition to this change. Therefore, with 75% support, while not perfect, I feel we have struck the right balance for those living on this stretch of Shaw, and will continue to support neighbours to secure temporary permits for visitors who need to stay longer than the posted hours. A public notice has been submitted regarding this motion.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Authorized the reduction of permit parking hours on Shaw Street between Harbord Street and Dewson Street from 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., 7 days a week to the new hours of 12:01 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., 7 days a week and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday to Friday.

Parking Amendments - Roden Place
In June 2021, my office received a petition from local residents requesting changes to parking bylaws on Roden Place in order to improve safety and ease of navigation. Residents reported several areas of concern where parked/stopped vehicles impeded sightlines and the movement of traffic. The request asked for the establishment of new No Stopping areas to allow safe turning on to Roden Place, and for the safe entry and exit to and from driveway and garages. Transportation Services have put forth the following recommendations to support this request from residents.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Rescinded the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the south side of Roden Place, between McMurrich Street and a point 40.8 metres east. 2. Rescinded the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the south side of Roden Place, between a point 49.3 metres east of McMurrich Street and Sarah Street. 3.

Installing Bollards on Exchange Lane
Over the past year, I have heard from both the owners and residents of Don Area Co-operative Homes requesting bollard installations on account of safety concerns and extensive property damage due to large delivery trucks driving onto the small concrete path adjacent to their property at 14 Spruce Street in an attempt to drive around vehicles actively making deliveries in the laneway. Trucks will attempt to drive onto the small cement path thinking there is enough room and will end up hitting utility lines and the second story overhang. In their letter, the Co-op has incurred significant repair costs due to property damage. As a result, my office has consulted with Transportation Staff and is recommending the installation of rigid, impact-resistant, fixed-in-place bollards to protect the adjacent property and enhance community safety.
The Toronto and East York Community Council directed the General Manager, Transportation Services to: 1. install two rigid, fixed in place bollards on the Spruce Street entrance to Exchange Lane between the existing hydro pole to the south and the fixed bollard to the north, adjacent to the wooden fence at 14 Spruce Street. Work to be completed by the end of April 2022; 2. install two rigid, fixed in place bollards on the small cement pathway adjacent to the property at 14 Spruce Street between the existing hydro pole to the north and the larger yellow bollard to the south; work to be completed by the end of April 2022; and 3. explore available opportunities to limit property damage at 255 Carlton Street entrance into Exchange Lane; work to be completed by the end of April 2022.

Improving Pedestrian Safety at Front Street and Frederick Street
A proposal was submitted to my office with over 60 supporters on the importance of a crosswalk at Front and Frederick Streets. The St. Lawrence community has long advocated for a crosswalk running north south at the corner at Front and Frederick. Young People's Theatre is on the south east corner, which hosts 85,000 patrons a year, along with their educational centre across the street, which requires children to cross Front Street East in order to access both facilities. Front Street East is heavily traveled and this will only worsen as the area is planned for further increase of new residents. Historically, traffic lights have been installed at every intersection on Front Street East between Parliament and Church Streets - with the exception of Frederick Street where the children's theatre is located. Furthermore, it is unlikely that young people will walk a block east to Sherbourne Street or west to George Street to cross at available lights. As the Young People's Theatre undergoes necessary upgrades in the coming months, it will be imperative that the area is made safe and welcoming for patrons and students as they return in large numbers following the pandemic lockdowns. My office has worked with the St. Lawrence neighbourhood to become even more pedestrian friendly in recent years and this would be another crucial step forward.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed Transportation staff to review their capital plan and report back to the June 29, 2022 meeting, on the feasibility of improving pedestrian safety at Front Street East and Frederick Street by accelerating the widening of sidewalks and the removal of boulevard parking.

Decreasing the Speed Limit on Dermott Place to 30km/h
In an effort to achieve the City of Toronto's Vision Zero initiatives , my office has engaged in consultation with residents and City staff in response to concerns with the level and speed of traffic moving through Dermott Place between Carlton Street and Spruce Street. There are currently 14 units surrounding the lane, many of which have young children who play outside and vehicles are often seen speeding through the narrow entrance to the laneway. As a result, I am recommending the installation and bylaw changes to allow for a 30km/h bylaw and signage to reduce traffic speeds and increase community safety.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Reduced the speed limit from 40 km/h to 30 km/h on Dermott Place, between Carlton Street and Spruce Street.
