http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2016.SC17.3

 As stated in the decision, the hedge is not to exceed two metres in height. At the Scarborough Community Council meeting on November 15th, 2016, I will request to reopen this item with respect to the height. The arborist's report states that the minimum hedge height should be not less than at 8 feet, which is better reflected at 2.5 metres.

Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1.  City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 16 Shropshire Drive.

This report requests that City Council deny the application for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at 16 Shropshire Drive. The application indicates the reason for removal is that the tree is located immediately next to the neighbour's driveway and that falling debris and sap have caused vehicle and property maintenance and safety issues for the homeowner and neighbour.

The subject tree is a Colorado blue spruce (Picea pungens var. glauca), measuring 45 cm in diameter.  Urban Forestry does not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable.

Scarborough Community Council

1.   Approved amendment of the existing parking prohibition in effect at all times on the north and east side of Prudential Drive, between a point 202 metres west of Midland Avenue and a point 66 metres further west and north, to be in effect between a point 150 metres west of Midland Avenue and a point 118 metres further west and north.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

This report recommends that the existing No Parking zone along the north side of Prudential Drive be extended eastward to include the area in between the accesses to 100 Prudential Drive in order to mitigate the safety impact of vehicles being parked in this area. Currently the three-hour default parking regulation applies between the two accesses.

Scarborough Community Council:

1.  Received the item for information.

This report responds to a request by Scarborough Community Council, at its meeting on April 5, 2016, for a report from the Director, Transportation Services, Scarborough District on a proposal to enact an amendment to the Municipal Code that would permit the use of the "driveway apron" (the section between the curb and sidewalk) for parking purposes on Painted Post Drive in Ward 38. The Municipal Code currently prohibits the use of this area for parking purposes across the City, with the exception of one street in Ward 8 (Shoreham Drive).

The exemption to the Municipal Code for Shoreham Drive was enacted by City Council in April 2015.  Therefore, the full implications of this "apron parking" on Shoreham Drive are not yet known due, in part, to the relatively moderate winter the city experienced last season.  Nevertheless, based on an assessment of the potential impacts of parked vehicles on traffic operations, pedestrian activity, and winter maintenance, and the potential safety implications, staff have concerns with the proposed exemption.  The implications of this proposal and the basis of these concerns are presented in this report for information.

Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1.  City Council amend the existing Heavy Vehicles Prohibition on Warden Avenue between Danforth Avenue and Kingston Road from 7:00 p.m. of one day to 7:00 a.m. of the next following day, to be in effect between Danforth Avenue and Clonmore Drive from 7:00 p.m. of one day to 7:00 a.m. of the next following day.

This report recommends the amendment of the existing Heavy Vehicle Prohibition to clarify the Heavy Vehicles Prohibition on Warden Avenue between Danforth Avenue and Clonmore Drive from 7:00 p.m. of one day to 7:00 a.m. of the next following day, while maintaining the Heavy Vehicles Prohibition at all times from Clonmore Drive to Kingston Road. Currently, the regulations and signs for this portion are inconsistent.

Scarborough Community Council:  

1.  Approved the prohibition of parking at all times, on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, from April 15 to October 15, inclusive, on the north side of Drake Crescent, between Scarboro Crescent and Undercliff Drive.

2.  Approved the prohibition of parking at all times, on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, from April 15 to October 15, inclusive, on the west side of Scarboro Crescent, between a point 52 metres north of Romana Drive and a point 46 metres south of Romana Drive.

3.  Approved the prohibition of parking at all times, on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, from April 15 to October 15, inclusive, on the north side of Undercliff Drive, between Scarboro Crescent and the east end of Undercliff Drive.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

The report recommends prohibiting parking on weekends and public holidays on one side of Drake Crescent, Scarboro Crescent, and Undercliff Drive. The prohibition would be in effect from the 15th day of April to the 15th day of October on one side of all three roadways in order to address the high demand for parking generated by the recreational uses in the area during the summer months. Currently, there is the default three-hour parking in effect on all of these streets.

Scarborough Community Council:

1.  Approved the prohibition of stopping at all times on the east side of Scarborough Golf Club Road, between a point 160 metres north of Kingston Road and a point 96 metres further north, and on the west side of Scarborough Golf Club Road between a point 30 metres south of Gatesview Avenue and a point 22 metres north of Gatesview Avenue.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

The report recommends the installation of a "No Stopping Anytime" regulation on both sides of Scarborough Golf Club Road, near Gatesview Avenue.  Currently, a Pedestrian Crossover is located on Scarborough Golf Club Road just south of Gatesview Avenue, with stopping regulations in effect within 9 metres of this device.

Scarborough Community Council: 

1.  Approved the designation of the northerly westbound lane on Town Centre Court, from a point 100 metres west of Borough Drive (northeast intersection) to a point 15 metres further west, for westbound right turns only.

2.  Approved the designation of the southerly westbound lane on Town Centre Court, from a point 100 metres west of Borough Drive (northeast intersection) to a point 15 metres further west, for westbound left turns only.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

9. Approved the prohibition of northbound and southbound U-Turns at all times on Fundy Bay Boulevard, between Bamburgh Circle and Innislawn Road.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

The report recommends several parking regulation changes to reduce traffic congestion on Fundy Bay Boulevard in the area of Dr. Norman Bethune Collegiate Institute and David Lewis Public School. The changes include the installation of a stopping prohibition on the west side and a standing prohibition on the east side, and stopping prohibitions on both sides of Fundy Bay Boulevard in the immediate area of its intersection with Bamburgh Circle, a no clarifying no stopping zone within the existing school bus loading zone.  Currently, there are only parking prohibitions on the west side and the default three-hour parking on the east side of Fundy Bay Boulevard.

Scarborough District recommends that:

1.   City Council not authorize the installation of traffic control signals or a pedestrian crossover on Birchmount Road in the area of 1792 Birchmount Road.

This report recommends that neither traffic control signals nor a pedestrian crossover be approved on Birchmount Road, north of Ellesmere Road, in the area of 1792 Birchmount Road. The assessment concludes that based on current peak vehicular and pedestrian volumes and delays and conflicts at this location, neither traffic control signals nor a pedestrian crossover is warranted at this time.

Scarborough Community Council:

1.  Authorized compulsory stop control for eastbound traffic on Lakeland Crescent at Mid Pines Road.

2.  Authorized compulsory stop control for westbound traffic on Point Grey Crescent at Linville Road.

This staff report is about a matter for which the Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.

This report recommends that minor street stop signs be installed at two uncontrolled three-way intersections in the Lakeland Crescent area in order to clearly define the right-of-way and to regulate traffic flow.

Seeking Endorsement of an event for Liquor Licensing Purposes.

Scarborough Community Council:

1. Requested the Director, Engineering Support Services and Construction Services and the Technical Services Division to begin the process to review options for the renaming of Meadowvale Road between Highway 401 and Old Finch Avenue, or other options, including those of an "honourary" nature.

2. Requested staff to report back in the first quarter of 2017.

3.  Requested that the Scarborough Community Preservation Panel be consulted in the preparation of the report back to Scarborough Community Council.

The Toronto Zoo is the largest zoo in Canada attracting thousands of visitors annually becoming a landmark location in our City.

Home to over 5,000 animals it is situated in a beautiful natural habitat in one of Canada's largest urban parks.  Opening its doors on August 15, 1974 the Toronto Zoo has been able to adapt throughout the years developing a vision to "educate visitors on current conservation issues and help preserve the incredible biodiversity on the planet", through their work with endangered species, plans for a wildlife health centre and through their Research & Veterinary Programs.

I believe it would be appropriate to introduce a honourary street name for the section of Meadowvale Road between Highway 401 and Old Finch Avenue to recognize the only public entrance to the Toronto Zoo.

The Scarborough Community Councilo held a statutory public meeting on November 15, 2016, and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

These applications propose a 26-unit residential development comprised of three-storey townhouses on a former rail spur at 95 Pidgeon Street (formerly 0 Birchmount Road).  The subdivision application proposes to establish several blocks for the proposed townhouses and part of an extension to Pidgeon Street.

This proposal represents the residential infill and redevelopment of an unused rail spur for townhouses.  It continues the pattern of development that will occur at 743 Warden Avenue, immediately west and connected to the subject lands.

The proposal complies with the Official Plan, conforms to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement.  The proposed rezoning and draft plan of subdivision are considered appropriate for the use and development of the lands.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-laws and also advises that the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning, intends to approve the Draft Plan of Subdivision subject to the conditions as generally listed in Attachment 10.

Scarborough Community Council:

1. Requested the Director of Transportation, Scarborough District, to report on the feasibility of changing the speed limit on Agincourt Drive from 50 km/h to 40 km/h.

Agincourt Drive is a north-south residential road directly east of the Agincourt GO Station along the Agincourt/Stouffville Rail Corridor. Residents have been concerned about an intensification of traffic in the neighbourhood and an increase of speed of local and through traffic. Some sections of Agincourt Drive lacks sidewalk. Agincourt Drive abuts a pedestrian walkway that leads to the Agincourt Go platform as well as a crossover connecting the east and west sections of the historic Agincourt Village Community that is used not only by GO riders but children and their families walking to and from several local schools. As a result there is considerable pedestrian traffic at various times of the day.

We ask that a feasibility study be completed with a presentation to Scarborough Community Council for the Spring of 2017.

Scarborough Community Council:

1.  Referred the item to the Director, Transportation Services, Scarborough District, for report back to the Scarborough Community Council in the Spring, 2017.

Twyn Rivers Drive is an old, winding road that cuts through the Rouge National Park that was first created over 100 years ago as a horse path to the local mill and cottages in the Rouge Valley. I am asking for a staff report that addresses safety issues with respect to this road.
