  • Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS
    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

  • Attachment Mts-04
    IN THE MATTER OF the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998, S.O. 1998, C. 15, (Schedule B); AND IN THE MATTER OF an Application by Canadian Distributed Antenna Systems Coalition for certain orders under the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998. AFFIDAVIT OF MICHAEL STARKEY ON BEHALF OF TORONTO HYDRO-ELECTRIC SYSTEM LIMITED (“THESL” or “Toronto Hydro”) ATTACHMENT MTS-04 ATTACHMENT MTS-04 Attachment MTS-04 Listing of Cellular/PCS/AWS Station Sites Within 25 Kms. of the Center of Toronto MTS-04 is intended to identify the physical locations (i.e., station sites) of all antennas licensed for radio-transmission within the cellular/PCS/AWS frequency bands that are within 25 kilometers of the center of Toronto. Attachment MTS-04 was developed as follows. Step 1: The Attachment MTS-03 dataset served as staring point. Because that dataset includes antenna arrays that may be operated by different carriers at the same station site, it was necessary to eliminate multiple records for the same station site. The first step in that process involved concatenating the latitude and longitude fields into a single number and sorting on this new field. A simple @IF formula (i.e., if lat-long field of current record = lat-long field of previous record, flag as a duplicate) was then applied to compare successive records’ concatenated latitude-longitude fields and remove all duplicates (which represent multiple antenna arrays collocated at the same station site), so that only a single unique record remained for each location (latitude/longitude). Step 2: However, we also encountered numerous instances in which the various wireless operators had entered non-identical latitude-longitude and/or street address information on the records they supplied to the ALS database for what were clearly intended to represent the same station locations.

    PW2.5 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED William R. Allen Road Temporary Closure – Metrolinx Eglinton Crosstown LRT Tunnel Boring Machine Lift Date: February 2, 2015 To: Public Works and Infrastructure Committee From: General Manager, Transportation Services Wards: Ward 15 (Eglinton-Lawrence) Ward 21 (St. Paul's) Reference P:\2015\ClusterB\TRA\TIM\pw15004tim.docx Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to seek City Council’s authority to close the section of William R. Allen Road between Eglinton Avenue West and Lawrence Avenue West for one weekend in order to safely facilitate the lift and transfer of two tunnel boring machines being utilized by Metrolinx for its construction of the Eglinton Crosstown LRT project. A closing of one of the southbound lanes is also recommended prior to the weekend closure in order to facilitate construction staging. Additional closures are required on Eglinton Avenue West from Flanders Road (immediately to the east of William R. Allen Road) to Park Hill Road (immediately to the west of William R. Allen Road). This includes the off-ramp from southbound William R. Allen Road and the on-ramp to northbound William R. Allen Road. These closures can be approved by the General Manager of Transportation Services. Further to the proposed closure of William R. Allen Road between Eglinton Avenue West and Lawrence Avenue West, the section between Lawrence Avenue West and Sheppard Avenue West would also be closed at the same time for maintenance purposes. This additional closure for City maintenance, which also falls under the delegated authority of the General Manager, is being combined with the closure proposed by Metrolinx to avoid the need for a second weekend closure of William R.

Because this matter has been appealed to the OMB, this report recommends that the City Solicitor be authorized to bring forward City Council's position on these matters at the hearing which is not yet scheduled. Recommendations: It is recommended that: 1. The City Solicitor seek approval of the Official Plan Amendment for 1100 Sheppard Avenue West at the Ontario Municipal Board in relation to the appeal, substantially in accordance with draft Official Plan Amendment described in Schedule “A” attached to this report. Executive Summary: The applicant has applied for a site-specific amendment to the Official Plan for a mixed commercial residential project at a FSI of 4.5. The site is currently designated “Industrial” and contains a retail furniture warehouse. A comprehensive analysis of built form and transportation for the Allen Road and Sheppard Avenue West intersection has been undertaken with the conclusion that this site should be permitted a mix of commercial residential uses at a density 3.0 FSI and be designated Mixed Use (MU). Although a mix of residential, commercial office and retail development would be permitted close to the Downsview Subway Station, a buffer zone - 2 - from the industrial area to the north and west is recommended.
