7 COMMENTARY: SCARBOROUGH WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, PRELIMINARY PREFERRED EAST SEGMENT ALTERNATIVE, GREY ABBEY, EAST POINT PARK AND VICINITY
TO: LIONEL WORRELL, PROJECT COORDINATOR – WATERFRONT, TORONTO AND REGION CONSERVATION AUTHORITY (TRCA) FROM: M. JANE FAIRBURN DATE: JULY 12, 2016
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND The comments below are focused on the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority’s proposed destruction of over half of the last remaining natural sand beach on the mainland of Toronto, from the Grey Abbey shore, eastward to the western boundary of East Point Park. This proposal was put forward at the public meeting held on June 28, 2016, at Blessed Cardinal Newman High School.
The comments should be read with reference to my earlier submission to the TRCA, dated February 12, 2016, as well as the multiple reports, environmental designations and protections that are apposite to the subject area, including:
• Regeneration: Toronto’s Waterfront and the Sustainable City: Final Report
• Scarborough Waterfront Project, Environmental Assessment Terms of Reference (specifically see reference to the City of Toronto Official Plan that designates the Scarborough Shore as a Natural Heritage System, p. 42)
• Scarborough Shoreline: Terrestrial Biological Inventory and Assessment, and
• The ESA and ANSI designations applicable to subject area, as stated in the Scarborough Waterfront Project, Environmental Assessment Terms of Reference, 7.2.7, Significant Natural Areas, p. 38
The TRCA has also been made aware of a petition that opposes the practice of further shoreline hardening in relation to Scarborough’s remaining beaches. (I am advised that there are over 550 signatures online and in handwritten form to date).
