It has been hard on individuals, and our local businesses. For many this has been a time of unspeakable hardship and despair. Despite the challenges, we have fought hard for crucial investments in Downsview and surrounding neighbourhoods, and my team has worked to answer your questions and solve various problems. We continue to invest funds in road repairs, traffic and pedestrian safety, improving our parks and recreation assets, and investing in infrastructure to stop basement flooding, objecting to T 2 unreasonable development and keep our neighbourhoods safe. Many projects have already been completed while 63 P P others will be done in 2021 and beyond. I have also fought at City Hall to change policies so we can better help young families, seniors and those with disabilities.

    Member Motion City Council Motion Without Notice MM9.11 ACTION Ward: 8 Ontario Municipal Board Hearing – Committee of Adjustment Application – 3965 Keele Street - by Councillor Anthony Perruzza, seconded by Councillor Frank Di Giorgio * This Motion has been deemed urgent by the Chair. * This Motion is not subject to a vote to waive referral. * This Motion has been added to the agenda and is before Council for debate. Recommendations Councillor Anthony Perruzza, seconded by Councillor Frank Di Giorgio recommends that: 1. City Council authorize the City Solicitor, appropriate Planning staff and any other City representation as required to attend the Ontario Municipal Board hearing to uphold the Committee of Adjustment’s decision. Summary The Toronto Transit Commission submitted a Minor Variance application to the North York Panel of the Committee of Adjustment to permit the development of a bus terminal associated with the Finch West Subway Station on Toronto-York Spadina Subway Extension. Variances were requested to former City of North York Zoning By-law No. 7625 with respect to a reduced front yard setback and reduced front yard landscaping requirements. City Planning staff have been working with the TTC on the design of this facility for two years and had no objections to the requested variances. The Committee of Adjustment for the City of Toronto (North York Panel) approved the Minor Variance application at its April 28, 2011 meeting. Metro Toronto Condominium Corporation 863, the Condominium Corporation for 1280 Finch Avenue West (east of the proposed bus terminal), has appealed the decision of the Committee of Adjustment to the Ontario Municipal Board.

    Back in the Tower Again

    MUNICIPAL UPDATE Back In The Tower Again Angela Drennan THE SWEARING IN Toronto City Council was sworn in on December 4, 2018 to a Council Chamber full of family, friends and staff. The new Council is comprised of 25 Members including the Mayor, making it 26 (remember this now means to have an item passed at Council a majority +1 is needed, i.e. 14 votes). Councillor stalwart Frances Nunziata (Ward 5 York South Weston) was re-elected as the Speaker, a position she has held since 2010 and Councillor Shelley Carroll (Ward 17 Don Valley North) was elected as Deputy Speaker. The ceremonial meeting moved through the motions of pomp and circumstance with measured fanfare and Councillors, old and new, looking eager to get down to “real” work the next day during the official first meeting of City Council. Mayor Tory, during his first official address, stressed the need for Council consensus, not dissimilar to the previous term and reiterated his campaign positions on the dedication to build more affordable housing, address gun violence through youth programming and build transit, specifically the downtown relief line. Tory did suggest that the City still needs to take a financially prudent approach to future initiatives, as financial streams such as the land transfer tax have lessened due to a slower real estate market environment, a signal that cuts, reallocations or revenue tools will likely need to be revisited for debate during the term (the uploading of the TTC will help with the City’s financial burden, but isn’t enough). THE MAYOR’S OFFICE There have been some notable staff changes in Mayor John Tory’s Office, here are a few: We say goodbye to Vic Gupta, Tory’s Principal Secretary, who will be greatly missed but we say hello to Vince Gasparro, Liberal, Tory’s Campaign Co-Chair and longtime friend of the firm, who has taken over that position.

One need only amble through the gates on Fisgard Street in Victoria or in Gastown in Vancouver to encounter vibrant Chinatowns, or through small roadways just off Dundas Street in Toronto to happen upon enclaves of Portuguese from the Azores; if you wander through the Côte- des-Neiges district in Montreal you will discover a polyethnic world - Kazakhis, Russian Jews, Vietnamese, Sri Lankans or Haitians among many other groups - while parts ot Dartmouth are home to an old African-Canadian community.
  • Library Board

    Library Board

    October 9, 2007 Dear Friend of the Toronto Public Library: As you know, the Toronto Public Library Board recently held a series of public meetings to inform the public about our budget situation and to give people an opportunity to ask questions and share their thoughts and opinions. We told people about the difficult decisions the Board faces regarding potential service reductions in 2008 affecting open hours, services and collections. We listened to thoughtful questions and feedback that the Library Board will take into careful consideration as we plan for our 2008 budget. As you heard if you were able to join us for a meeting, there are only two areas that the Library Board can cut from to get the significant reductions that may be required: branch open hours and library materials (that is, the books, CDs, reference materials, etc. that make up our collections). Cuts in both of these areas would negatively impact services and, as we heard, would ultimately hurt the people we serve. Here is just a little of what we’ve heard from those who attended the meetings and/or have filled out our survey and comment forms: • “Education is power. The Toronto Public Library is rich with information from which we all learn. Without it, crime, poverty, and unemployment will rise.” • “Toronto Public Library is one of the very few places in the City where teens are invited to do creative and useful things, free of charge!” • “I am always impressed by the diversity I see in the larger branch I drop into from time to time.
