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

Chester Hill Road is a local road that intersects with Broadview Avenue just south of the intersection of Broadview Avenue and Mortimer Avenue.
