The exclusion of the development from the 2- permit parking area is a means to ensure that current permit holders have sufficient parking space. The issuance of parking permits to residents of these developments would negatively impact on the already limited supply of parking spaces. As a result, I am requesting approval from Toronto and East York Community Council to prohibit the General Manager, Transportation Services, from accepting applications from residents of, visitors to, and tradespersons at the subject development property. Residents have reported that it is difficult to find a parking space close to home. The request is to ensure the balance of parking within area 2- from the potential influx from another development in the neighbourhood.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, amend Schedule B of the City of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 925, Permit Parking, to exclude the development located at 1423-1437 Bloor Street West and 278 Sterling Road from permit parking area 2-.

2022 Maintenance Work at Donald D. Summerville Olympic Pools
This report responds to City Council direction to report to the Toronto and East York Community Council on the urgent maintenance work currently underway at Donald D. Summerville Olympic Pools. While preparing the Donald D. Summerville Olympic Pools for the 2022 season, staff discovered that inclement winter weather significantly damaged the liners in the 50 and 25 metre pools rendering them irreparable and requiring full replacement. To ensure the facility is able to partially open for the 2022 season, staff are expediting an emergency liner replacement for the 25 metre pool. The liner replacement is underway and will take approximately six weeks to complete. The diving pool and the 25 metre pool are anticipated to open at the end of July. The vendor is unable to source the 50 metre pool liner replacement for this season, and it will remain closed for summer 2022. The replacement will be completed as part of a comprehensive state of good repair project planned for 2023. To mitigate service impacts, staff have: · relocated permit holders to nearby pools · relocated CampTO swims to other nearby indoor and outdoor pools · communicated alternative outdoor and indoor pool options to lane and leisure swim participants through the City's website, signage and direct communication to permit holders · offered displaced aquatics staff shifts at other pools The washrooms located on the exterior of the building in addition to the food vendor will remain operational. Impacts to the 2023 pool season will be determined through further investigation and preliminary design this fall.
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council request the General Manager, Parks, Forestry and Recreation to undertake inspection of outdoor recreation facilities earlier in the season in order to identify potential issues and undertake repairs when necessary. 2. City Council request the General Manager, Parks, Forestry and Recreation to review and action further measures to mitigate the impacts on recreation users for the 2022 season, including but not limited to: a. Providing additional lane swim hours at Kiwanis Outdoor Pool to be available to permit holders; and b. Provide lane swim options at earlier hours of the day, comparable to those historically provided at Donald D. Summerville, at Kiwanis Outdoor Pool, Monarch Park and Greenwood Park. 3. City Council request the General Manager, Park, Forestry and Recreation to initiate the planned 2023 State of Good Repair and any other capital repairs for the Donald D. Summerville pool as soon as possible, and to coordinate timing of upgrades and outstanding repairs for the 50 metre pool to ensure that there are no impacts to the 2023 summer season.

Intersection Safety Review - Broadview and Mortimer
Broadview Avenue and Mortimer Avenue are two arterial roads with primarily residential buildings on both sides. On the west side of this intersection, Broadview Avenue connects with Pottery Rd which connects to Bayview. This is a very busy intersection and I have heard from many residents that this intersection is very unsafe for pedestrians. In the area immediately surrounding the intersection of Broadview and Mortimer, there are also two large developments planned. With the impending construction of two developments near this intersection, the local community has raised further concerns about traffic and pedestrian safety. I am writing to request that this intersection be reviewed to assess whether all measures are in place to ensure the safety of all road users.
The Toronto and East York Community Council directed: 1. Transportation Services staff to conduct an intersection traffic safety study at Broadview Avenue and Mortimer Avenue and to report back with recommendations to the January 2023 meeting of Toronto and East York Community Council.

I am writing to respectfully request your support in re-opening Item TE32.83 in order to change the "No Standing" prohibition on Durham Ave, between Winnett Ave and Arlington Ave, to a "No Stopping" prohibition. After adoption, residents of the street brought it to my office's attention that their petition had actually requested for a "No Stopping" prohibition. This measure would help ease congestion on their street by deterring parents, who have kids attending schools in the area, from using the street as a standing/stopping zone while waiting to pick up their kids.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Re-opened Item TE32.83 titled "Implementation of a "No Standing" prohibition on Durham Avenue, between Winnett Avenue and Arlington Avenue", with respect to Recommendation 2. 2. Replaced Recommendation 2 with the following: 2. Prohibit stopping at all times on the south side of Durham Avenue, between Winnett Avenue and Arlington Avenue

Vehicle Prohibition over 2.0 metres - Kristen Fahrig Lane
Residents in the Bloordale neighbourhood reached out to the City of Toronto requesting signage prohibiting vehicles over 2.0 metres in width from travelling in Kristen Fahrig Lane. The purpose of prohibitive signage is to help with restricting large and heavy vehicles from travelling on the public lane in a way that adversely impacts abutting residents by causing property and road damage while also creating unsafe conditions for other users of the laneway. I am requesting that prohibitive signage be installed at the subject location as recommended below.

Four Oaks Gate - Rush Hour Turn Restriction
Dear Councillor Perks and Toronto and East York Community Council, Four Oaks Gate is a residential street located north of O'Connor Drive, near the Don Mills Rd entrance to the Don Valley Parkway. I have heard from residents that vehicles often cut-through along Four Oaks Gate to skip the queue of vehicles along O'Connor Drive and access the Don Valley Parkway more quickly. I have polled the community and local residents support the implementation of a right turn restriction at Four Oaks Gate and O'Connor Drive
The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that: 1. City Council prohibit westbound right turns, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m., Monday to Friday, at the intersection of O'Connor Drive and Four Oaks Gate.

Parking Amendments - Falwyn Avenue
Earlier this year, by way of the Permit Parking office, it was brought to my attention that some discrepancies exist between the signage on Falwyn Avenue and the actual parking bylaw, which has resulted in safety and operational issues on the street. Permit parking operates from 12:00 midnight to 6:00am. According to the City of Toronto's parking bylaw (Chapter 925), parking is already affixed to the even (north) side of Falwyn Avenue. However, signage on the street indicates alternate side parking. For this reason, residents are parking on the north side of Falwyn Avenue except on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month from April 1st to November 30th, during which time they park on the alternate side (south). This conflicts with the current parking regulation and causes residents at times to park on both sides of the street, which narrows the roadway, and in turn creates unsafe conditions and disruptions to City services. Transportation Services staff have been contacted for recommendations and as a result of their investigation, and after having consulted with area residents, I am recommending that parking regulations be amended and corrected, as outlined below.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Rescinded the parking prohibition in effect on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month, April 1st to November 30th, inclusive on the north side of Falwyn Avenue, between the west end of Falwyn Avenue and Winona Drive. 2. Rescinded the parking prohibition in effect at all times, except the 1st Wednesday and 3rd Wednesday of each month, April 1st to November 30th, inclusive on the south side of Falwyn Avenue, between the west end of Falwyn Avenue and Winona Drive. 3. Prohibited parking at all times on the south side of Falwyn Avenue, between the west end of Falwyn Avenue and Winona Drive. 4. Amended the existing permit parking regulation in effect at all times from 12:00 midnight to 6:00 a.m., on the even side of Falwyn Avenue, from the west limit to Winona Drive to be in effect at all times, except no parking on the south side of Falwyn Avenue between the west end of Falwyn Avenue and Winona Drive.

Parking Amendments - Manchester Avenue
The owner of 33 Manchester Avenue contacted my office advising that the existing No Parking condition in front of their house regularly results in vehicles parked on the road and blocking access to their driveway. The current condition for parking in front of this location is such that it is generally too small of a space to allow for a regular-sized vehicle to park without preventing access to the adjacent property's driveway. The introduction of a No Stopping Anytime regulation would assist with preventing vehicles from parking on the portion of the road that provides access to the driveway at 33 Manchester Avenue.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Amended the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times, from December 1st of one year to March 31st of the next following year, inclusive on the south side of Manchester Avenue, between Ossington Avenue and Shaw Street, to be in effect between Ossington Avenue and a point 60 metres further east. 2.

Realignment of Permit Parking Area "5E" to exclude the development located at 110-116 Avenue Road
The availability of permit parking in our neighbourhoods continues to be a hot topic of discussion among residents, new, old, and former. The increasing density we are seeing from development does not suggest that our current model for on-street parking availability is one that is equitable, nor that it can support any new residents to the area moving forward. By taking steps to eliminate access to parking spaces we can help promote less dependency on a personal vehicle, and protect the available public supply for general use. The exclusion of the development located at 110-116 Avenue Road from the 5E permit parking area is also a means to ensure that current permit holders have sufficient parking spaces and we are not oversubscribing any one area from access to public parking availability. The issuance of parking permits to residents of this development would negatively impact on the already limited supply of on-street parking spaces in the area.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Requested the General Manager, Transportation Services, to review and to report back to Toronto and East York Community Council on the realignment of Permit Parking Area "5E" to exclude the development located at 110-116 Avenue Road.

Reduction of Speed Limit on Russell Hill Road, between Heath Street West and Kilbarry Road
Dear Chair and Members, I am writing to respectfully request the reduction of the speed limit at Russell Hill Road, between Heath Street West and Kilbarry Road from 40km/k to 30km/h. The Bishop Strachan School reached out to my office over very serious safety concerns around speeding and other forms of reckless driver behavior that endanger students. What is more, the sections of Russell Hill Road, north of Kilbarry and south of Heath Street West, which are both further away from the school, are currently designated as 30km/h, leaving this mid-section, directly abutting the school, at 40km/h. While Traffic Operations staff have explained that this is due to the section being classified as a collector road, they certainly understand the safety concerns here and my office has worked with them in coming up with this recommendation that will go a long way to ensure safety in a school zone.

I am writing to respectfully request the implementation of speed humps on Robina Ave, between Jesmond Ave and Holland Park Ave. Residents of the street presented a petition to my office a couple of years ago, which was referred to staff for a study. Though the warrants for the speed humps were not met, residents continue to complain about speeding and other forms of reckless driving on their street on a daily basis. Several residents have young kids. My office reviewed the concerns with Traffic operations staff and we collectively identified this location as a priority for the installation of speed humps.

Poll Residents of Wychcrest Avenue - Installation of Speed Humps
I am writing to respectfully request your support to re-poll residents of Wychcrest Avenue, between Melita Crescent (west intersection) and Melita Crescent (east intersection), in order to install speed humps on their street. Residents of the street previously requested for the installation of speed humps a couple of years ago; however, the process was truncated due to an unfavourable poll. Recently, there have been renewed concerns on the street around speeding and other forms of reckless driver behavior that endanger kids. Following confirmation that the moratorium date has elapsed, my office has worked with traffic operations staff to poll eligible residents once again.
The Toronto and East York Community Council: 1. Directed the Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services to request the City Clerk to poll eligible householders on Wychcrest Avenue, between Melita Crescent (west intersection) and Melita Crescent (east intersection), to determine whether residents support the installation of traffic calming (speed humps) in accordance with the City of Toronto Traffic Calming Policy. 2. Subject to favourable results of the poll: a. Authorized the installation of traffic calming (speed humps) on Wychcrest Avenue, between Melita Crescent (west intersection) and Melita Crescent (east intersection); and b. Directed the City Solicitor to prepare a by-law to alter the roadway for the installation of four speed humps on Wychcrest Avenue, between Melita Crescent (west intersection) and Melita Crescent (east intersection), generally as shown on the attached drawing No. 421G-3448 dated June 2019, from the Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services.
