(August 12, 2014) Memo from Councillor Parker

Summary

Residents within the Leaside Community have expressed their concerns with regards to traffic infiltration and vehicle speeds within the local community.

The land uses within the Leaside Community consist of single family residential properties, schools, parks and green spaces. Installation of 30 km/h speed limit zones will improve pedestrian and motorist safety throughout the community.

Therefore, in view of the residents concern, I am requesting that North York Community Council approve the following recommendations.
