Origin
Summary
The purpose of this report is to seek Council authority to enter into a nominal licence agreement (the "Licence Agreement") with Conseil scolaire Viamonde for non-exclusive use of approximately 135,650 square feet of the City-owned lands municipally known as 60 Felstead Avenue and commonly known as Felstead Avenue Playground Park, to accommodate the school-related activities of Conseil scolaire Viamonde's planned secondary school at 24 Mountjoy Avenue, Toronto, located directly across from the Park (the "School"). The School is scheduled to open in September 2023.
As part of the Licence Agreement, the City shall undertake certain capital improvements to the Park to minimize traffic impacts to the non-licensed areas of the Park. Conseil scolaire Viamonde will reimburse the City for the full costs of the capital improvements made to the Park to accommodate Conseil scolaire Viamonde's use of the Licensed Area.
Conseil scolaire Viamonde will also be responsible for the costs associated with any necessary changes to on-street parking, and upgrades to road crossing conditions, as directed by Transportation Services, made to accommodate Conseil scolaire Viamonde's use of the Licensed Area. City staff will bring a report to the Toronto East York Community Council to support the implementation of the signage changes in May 2024.
