Speed Limit Amendments – Renforth Drive Between Bloor Street West and Rathburn Road
REPORT FOR ACTION Speed Limit Amendments – Renforth Drive between Bloor Street West and Rathburn Road Date: December 14, 2018 To: Etobicoke York Community Council From: Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services Wards: Ward 2 – Etobicoke Centre SUMMARY This staff report is about a matter for which the Etobicoke York Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision. This report recommends that a 40 km/h speed limit be implemented on Renforth Drive, between Bloor Street West and Burnhamthorpe Road, as the 40 km/h speed limit warrant is met. Although not technically warranted, staff also recommends that a 40 km/h speed limit be implemented on Renforth Drive, between Burnhamthorpe Road and Rathburn Road, for speed limit uniformity. Currently, the speed limit on Renforth Drive, between Eglinton Avenue West and Bloor Street West varies between 40 km/h and 50 km/h. This proposal will provide consistency in terms of the speed limit on Renforth Drive between Bloor Street West and Eglinton Avenue West. RECOMMENDATIONS The Acting Director, Traffic Management, Transportation Services, recommends that: 1. Etobicoke York Community Council reduce the speed limit from 50 km/h to 40 km/h on Renforth Drive, between Bloor Street West and Burnhamthorpe Road. 2. Etobicoke York Community Council reduce the speed limit from 50 km/h to 40 km/h on Renforth Drive, between Burnhamthorpe Road and Rathurn Road. FINANCIAL IMPACT The estimated cost for the installation of the speed limit signs is $1,000.00. These funds are included within the Transportation Services Division's 2019 interim Operating Budget.

So, this is an interview with Mickey on June 23, 2010. Mickey Matsubayashi: [laughs] Yeah. LU: Um, Mickey, where were you born and when were you born? MM: I was born in Vancouver, at the Vancouver General Hospital, in, uh, September 2nd, 1930. LU: And why were you born in a hospital and not at home with a midwife? MM: Um, I really don’t know [coughs]. I think I may have been a sickly baby because my childhood was just, uh, just one after another it was some sickness, until I moved out to the interior of B.C., and then my health improved 150% [chuckles]. LU: So, everybody calls you Mickey, but did you ever receive a Japanese name as well? MM: Yeah, apparently “Mickey” is a, uh, translation of my father’s name Kanichi that is a complex symbol with a [gestures with hands] horizontal bar underneath, which is “ichi” or “one”, and the upper part, “kan” part, you can read that two ways- one is “Kan” the other is “mickey”. “Mickey” in Japanese apparently means “the trunk of a tree” [laughs]. It matches my physique! [chuckles]. LU: [laughs] So, what generation Canadian are you? MM: Second generation. LU: Which is nisei. MM: [Nods] Nisei, right. LU: Tell me a little bit about your parents. Where were your parents born? MM: My father was born in, uh, Hikone - Sorry, I’ve forgotten the name of the province that he was born in - his father lived and worked in a girls’ school in Hikone, and my mother’s family was from Osaka, and they met in Vancouver, and the rest is history! [chuckles] LU: So, when did your father come to Canada? And how did he get here? MM: He came by boat in - let me see now, 1918 – 1895 - 12 is- LU: Oh, so your father was born in 1895?
