The Etobicoke York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on August 17, 2010, and notice was given in accordance with the City of Toronto Act, 2006, of the proposed enactment of the draft by-law and was posted on the City's web site.

The purpose of this report is to request Council’s approval to permanently “stop up and close” Indian Line, south of Matheson Boulevard East, and sections of the Eglinton Avenue West road allowance located on the north side of Eglinton Avenue West, from a point just west of the Etobicoke Creek to Orbitor Drive.

The east section of the City of Mississauga’s bus rapid transit (BRT) facility is proposed in an at-grade alignment on the north side of Eglinton Avenue West, extending from the Etobicoke Creek to Renforth Drive. Sections of property within this proposed alignment are occupied by segments of unimproved road allowance presently owned by the City of Toronto (the City). The City of Mississauga has requested that the City convey certain portions of public highway owned by the City to accommodate the BRT. This will require that the City of Toronto formally close these sections of public highway if they are to be conveyed to the City of Mississauga.

Notice advising the public of the City’s intention to close these sections of road was published according to the requirements of Chapter 162 of the City of Toronto Municipal Code and the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment.

The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) was informed of this proposal and does not object to the proposed road closings.

This matter is scheduled as a deputation item.
