Our association has been in continued operation for more than 70 years. We represent the area bounded by Mount Pleasant Avenue (on the west), the CPR tracks on the north, and The Rosedale-Moore Park Ravine on the east and west. There are more than 800 residences in our area, mostly single-family homes that date back to as early as the turn of the 20th century. North Rosedale is a stable community that takes pride in its heritage. Over the years, this association has worked hard to protect vital aspects and features of its community. Among its consistent activities over the years, the NRRA has fought to preserve the ravines that provide borders for its eastern and southern extremities. The natural state of these ravines helps create a unique community and is one of Our most distinctive features. The current NRRA Board of Directors is determined to continue with that position and thus opposes any attempt to build in any part of the ravine. The NRRA fully supports the continuing efforts of the homeowners on Glen Road and Bin-Scarth Road to oppose the application from Mr. Derek Russell to build in an area of the ravine known municipally as 119R Glen Road. I understand that Mr. Russell's application for permission to build a residential structure is to be considered at a meeting of the TRCA on November 7th. 6 Edgar Avenue, Toronto, ON M4W 2A9 Tel: 416-925-2037 Fax: 416-925-4704 www.north-rosedale.org 654 2...... I further understand that Mr. Russell purchased this property, which is located within the ravine, more than 10 years ago. Since that time, I am told that neighbors adjacent to Mr. Russell's propel1y have expended significant amounts in legal and other costs in opposition to Mr. Russell's plans. The NRRA supports their continued opposition to this proposal. On behalf of the NRRA Board, I urge you to turn down this application and maintain the ravines surrounding our community in their natural state. Yours sincerely ORIGINAL SIGNED BY J. Patrick Howe NRRA President cc. Mr. And Mrs. John McFadyen 655 CORRESPONDENCE (B) 656 _________________________________________ 657 HEARING PURSUANT TO ONTARIO REGULATION 158 RES.#B148/03 Moved by: Jim McMaster Seconded by: Gerri Lynn O'Connor THAT the Committee sit as a Hearing Board.

  • Erosion Risk Management Program
    Item 8.6 Section III – Items for the Information of the Board TO: Chair and Members of the Board of Directors Meeting #3/20, Friday, April 24, 2020 FROM: Moranne McDonnell, Director, Restoration and Infrastructure RE: 2020 EROSION RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM UPDATE ____________________________________________________________________________ KEY ISSUE An information report regarding the Erosion Risk Management Program and related services and strategic updates from the Engineering Projects business unit of Restoration & Infrastructure. RECOMMENDATION WHEREAS TRCA staff were requested by the Executive Committee at meeting #3/19 to provide more information regarding the positive impact that the Federal Disaster Mitigation & Adaptation Fund will have on TRCA’s plans for erosion mitigation work; IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT this staff report on TRCA’s Erosion Risk Management Program and the positive impacts of Federal Disaster Mitigation & Adaptation Fund and partner contributions be received; AND FURTHER THAT this report be circulated to TRCA’s municipal partners. BACKGROUND Managing the risk associated with the natural hazards of flooding and erosion is one of the primary roles of conservation authorities under the Conservation Authorities Act. Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) fulfills this role through the delivery of multiple natural resource management programs and services, including the Erosion Risk Management Program (ERMP). The ERMP focuses on the identification and remediation of shoreline and valley land erosion hazards throughout TRCA’s jurisdiction and encourages proactive prevention, protection, and management of erosion issues on private and public property. While many business units in TRCA work to prevent and address erosion impacts, the main business unit that manages erosion hazards is Engineering Projects (EP) which is organized under the Restoration and Infrastructure Division (R&I).

CCFEW (Citizens Concerned about the Future of the Etobicoke Waterfront) is a community, non-profit organization seeking to promote a healthy waterfront, preservation and expansion of parkland, citizen engagement and compatible development within our community. In 1997, we published a report, “Toward the Ecological Restoration of South Etobicoke”, still available online which contains many observations and recommendations still relevant to this study. We recently received the Urban Hero Award from the Etobicoke Guardian and have a long history of working with the City and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority towards these goals. In general, CCFEW is highly supportive of this initiative and appreciates the efforts being made by the City of Toronto. We understand that a number of solutions ranging from Wet Ponds to Storage Tanks to High Rate Treatment facilities are being considered. As an environment group representing south Etobicoke we are supportive of more natural processes rather than engineered solutions. During the process of implementing any recommendations coming from the Environmental Assessment process we would like the City to consider the opportunities to enhance, improve and resolve other community issues during the construction of any Citizens Concerned About the Future of the Etobicoke Waterfront 6 Meaford Avenue, Toronto, Ontario M8V 2H5 www.ccfew.org natural or engineered solutions.
