BACKGROUND Currently, at 25 St. Dennis Dr., there is a residential rental 17-story building that is home for nearly 1,000 residents. Preston Group, with CEO Gloria Salomon, is the parent company of Preston Apartments Inc. and 25 St. Dennis Inc. and is also owner of the land and the residential rental building at 25 St. Dennis Dr. 25 St. Dennis Inc. C/O Preston Group has applied for new development at 25 St. Dennis Dr. that includes a 37-storey residential building, a 12-storey residential building and two blocks of 3-storey townhouses on the land. City Hall also claims that the landlord has proposed to subdivide the land into six blocks that includes the creation of a new public park and a new public street. ISSUES Clearly, the 1,000 stakeholders residents will be substantially impacted by the project causing irreparable harm to them if approved; therefore, these stakeholders are legally entitled to be heard and their expressed concerns be considered when deciding the approval of this unprecedented controversial project. Further, the Provincial Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (“RTA”), prohibits landlords from interfering with the tenant/s’ reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit and the residential complex. Page 2 of 5 City Hall does not have jurisdiction to override legislation (the RTA) enacted by the Ontario government. Permitting the corporate proposed new development will constitute contravention of the legislated by the Provincial Government RTA. There are compelling reasons why the residents at 25 St. Dennis Dr. should be properly informed and their say be heard and considered. IMPROPER NOTICE Earlier this week or late last week, a sign bearing the logo of City Hall was placed on the north side fence of 25 St. Dennis Dr. providing information for the residents of the residential rental building. Note, this is the only notice provided to the residents in connection with the meetings of the City Council and its Committees scheduled for October 7, 2020 (two days from now). With an apparent intention to keep the sign away from the view and the attention of the 1,000 residents, the sign was placed on the fence between the 2 (two) entrances leading to the residential building where almost no one of the residents passes. MISSINFORMATIN AND INCORRECT ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ON THE CITY’s NOTICE FIRST, there is no map of the proposed development on the Notice showing the location of each new construction that will be built at 25 St. Dennis Dr. SECOND, the Notice also reads (quoting): (See attached 2 photos) “The City of Toronto’s 3D Massing Model is available for free at: www.toronto.ca.open/3D but several attempts with 3 (three) different browsers ended with the same result, reading: (Also see the screen shot at the end of this letter) “We’re having trouble finding that site” or “This site cannot be reached.” Page 3 of 5 It is patently obvious that the link provided for the residents by City Hall for essential information about the corporate proposed new development is a dead link leading to nowhere. THIRD, the other link ( aic.to ) on the City’s Notice (See attached 2 photos) Application Information Centre aic.to/ provided for the residents to access the “Application Information Centre” leads to a website with no indication that information about the application of the corporate landlord for new development could be found. COMMUNITY PLANNER JENNY CHOI NOT RETURNING CALL The City Hall’s Notice placed on the fence also reads: For more information about this application or to tell us what you think: Community Planning Jenny Choi (416) 395-0108 On October 3, 2002, at 3:58 p.m., I left a voice message in the voice mailbox for the Planner Jenny Choi advising that I needed information about the requirements for new development where there was a residential rental building. At the end, I asked her to return my call at her earliest convenience. (I have the call recorded) To date, October 6, 10:00 a.m., I have heard NOTHING from the planer Jenny Choi. IN CONCLUSION I have NO doubt, in view of the above, that some City’s clerks or incumbents involved in the Preston Group’s proposal for new development intentionally sabotage the required procedures in an effort to facilitate the corporate landlord. This individual/s are either on the take or are involved in corruption. Page 4 of 5 IMPENDING COURSE OF ACTION Regardless of what the exact motive could be, ALL THIS might be found to be a reasonable ground for investigation by the City Hall Ombudsman, The Ontario Ombudsman, some media outlets, and even the OPP special corruption unit (anti- rackets branch). FINALY, I URGE YOU To hold in abeyance the hearing of the Preston Group’s application in File 19 105324 NNY 16 SB, scheduled for October 7, 2020, and to inform the residents at 25 St. Dennis drive of the proposed development in a way consistent with all applicable statutes, including but not limited to the Planning Act, RSO 1990, c P.13. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Respectfully, E-mail: [email protected] Residing at 25 St. Dennis Dr. Director of the Tenant Association at 25 St. Dennis Dr. Enclosure: Two separate photos of the City’s sign on the fence.

    March 2020 - Volume 20, Issue 109 Outreach - Value – Input Making Our Community Thrive Dear Scarborough-Guildwood Neighbours, I would like to thank everyone who attended my Community Town Hall Meeting at Cedarbrook Community Centre on Tuesday February 18th. Residents play a vital role in our community and I appreciate the time people out of their busy days to come and speak with me, and our neighbours. Topics discussed at this Town Hall included community safety, traffic concerns, community resources available to the neighbourhood. Staff from Toronto Police Services 43 Division distributed information such as the non- emergency number, how to report issues online, and utilizing Toronto Police Service's website portal to view statistics and events in every neighbourhood. The police called attention to utilizing the non-emergency number 416-808-2222 to report any out of the ordinary observations in your community as it assists if issues develop. Contacting the non-emergency line is important, I cannot stress enough that calling the line will bring more resources to Scarborough-Guildwood as the number of calls and data on the issue is used to determine where to place officers and resources. Toronto Police Services now has online services for everyone to use to report any incident online through its Citizen Online Report Entry (CORE) unit. Visit the Ward Wide Update section of this letter for more details. Toronto Public Health (TPH) is monitoring additional positive cases of COVID-19 in Toronto. TPH continues to work with their provincial and federal health colleagues. At this time the virus is not circulating locally, however given the global circumstances, TPH is actively working with City and health partners to plan for this potentially to take place.

We understand that the full letter is relatively long, which is the reason for this summary. We appreciate your interest and value your time. You have many public service responsibilities. But the issues arising from this unprecedented incident are of a “life and death” nature. They are of great importance to not only those who use the TTC subway system but to all Toronto residents and taxpayers. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just after midnight on Friday, June 12, 2020, south of Osgoode Station, near Queen and University, a catastrophic collision of two moving TTC subway trains was averted by the instantaneous response of the two-person crew on one of those trains – the “pocket” train. The Subway Guard at the rear of the pocket train saw that they were about to crash into a passenger train going northbound on the mainline track at regulation speed. He urgently alerted the Operator (the “Driver”) in the front car to “STOP!” their train, which had been unclearly (according to an external investigation commissioned by the TTC) directed by TTC Transit Control to merge onto the mainline track.

Toronto, ON M5H 2N2 Dear Mr. Mayor, I’m writing to you because Toronto’s transit system is facing disruptive service cuts and layoffs unless you fight for immediate emergency financial support from your counterparts in Ottawa and at Queen’s Park. As you know, the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) is being pushed past its financial breaking point and facing a steep $90 million drop in monthly revenue because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The TTC is now planning to temporarily lay off 1,200 of its essential workers, including 1,000 Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 113 members. A lack of urgency from senior levels of government to shore up municipal finances and provide emergency financial support has brought us to the brink. As the President of ATU Local 113 representing 12,000 TTC workers, I can assure you that this is a serious problem for our public transit system. Make no mistake – the announced layoffs mean service cuts for Torontonians. These cuts have consequences for essential, low-income workers who depend on the TTC to get to work at hospitals, nursing homes, grocery stores and pharmacies.
