Origin
Summary
I am writing to request that Toronto and East York Community Council implement a commercial loading zone on the south side of Front Street East between a point 10.5 metres west of Market Street and a point 11 metres further west. This will result in the removal of two parking spaces, for which I wish to waive all fees and loss of revenue.
As we work towards the permanent closure of Market Street, this loading zone will service the businesses who operate along and near the street. The loading zone will ensure that Market Street can be animated without any impacts to business operations.
