a. Revisions relating to the provision of publicly accessible open space (Section 3.1 and Schedule D) as follows:

iii. Insert a provision allowing expenditures made on interim improvements to the Phase 2 lands in connection with the construction of Phase 1 to be applied towards the minimum expenditure, but only until such time as Phase 2 proceeds, at which time the amount spent on those interim improvements would be added to the outstanding amount owing.
iv. Provide that a portion of the minimum expenditure may be spent on the CN Tower Expansion site in advance of the construction of Phase 2A, so long as these expenditures are for improvements to the publicly accessible open space that are intended to be permanent and not of an interim nature.
v. Add new clause to allow a portion of the required minimum expenditure to be spent on other publicly accessible open spaces in the area (including the John Street Corridor and John Street Bridge), if there are excess funds.

Summary |
This application was made on or after January 1, 2007 and is subject to the new provisions of the Planning Act and the City of Toronto Act, 2006.
This application proposes to amend the Railway Lands Central and East Secondary Plans and the Railway Lands Central and East Zoning By-laws to permit a 14,000 square metre aquarium to the east of the CN Tower, and a 4,400 square metre commercial building on the west side of the base of the CN Tower. A mix of uses around the base of the CN Tower is currently permitted. This application will re-deploy that density to accommodate the proposed uses.
The proposed uses and density are consistent with existing permissions for the site. The proposed aquarium use will complement the existing tourist and entertainment uses in the area. The proposal addresses the relevant policy objectives of the Railway Lands Central Secondary Plan.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the applications to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. |

a. eastbound and westbound from College Street onto Spadina Avenue; b. eastbound and westbound from College Street onto Beverley Street and St. George Street, respectively; c. northbound from Beverley Street onto College Street; d. southbound from St. George Street onto College Street; e. northbound from St. George Street onto Hoskin Avenue; f. southbound from St. George Street onto Harbord Street; g. eastbound from Harbord Street onto St. George Street; h. westbound from Hoskin Avenue onto St. George Street; i. northbound and southbound from Bay Street onto Bloor Street West j. eastbound and westbound from Bloor Street West onto Bay Street; and k. eastbound and westbound from Harbord Street onto Spadina Avenue.
2. City Council authorize and direct the appropriate City officials to take the necessary action to give effect thereto, including the introduction of all necessary bills. |
Summary |
This report is requesting approval from City Council to install “No Right Turn on Red” regulations at the following five (5) intersections in the Toronto and East York District:
- College Street and Spadina Avenue; - College Street and St. George/Beverley Street; - Harbord Street and Spadina Avenue; - Harbord Street/Hoskin Avenue and St. George Street; and - Bloor Street West and Bay Street.
Prohibiting right turns on red at the selected intersections is designed to promote pedestrian safety and is required in order to install bike boxes and a pedestrian scramble intersection. Bike boxes will be installed at the College Street and Harbord Street/Hoskin Avenue intersections and the pedestrian scramble operation will be installed at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Bay Street. The installation of bike boxes and the pedestrian scramble operation will increase pedestrian and cyclist safety and decrease potential collisions with right turning vehicles. Further, the recommended “No Right Turn on Red” regulations will have a minimal affect on traffic operations based on the volume of vehicles currently making the right turn on red manoeuvre.
The pedestrian priority phase at the Bloor Street West and Bay Street intersection was "approved by City Council at its meeting on October 22 and 23, 2007 in considering the report titled ‘Sustainable Transportation Initiatives: Short-term Proposals’ (PW9.2)". |
Financial Impact |
All costs associated with the installation of the “No Right Turn on Red” regulations are included within the Transportation Services Division’s 2010 Operating Budget estimate.
The funds to implement the bike boxes identified in this report are available within the Transportation Services Division 2010 Capital Budget in the Cycling Infrastructure Account CTP 810-05. |

91a | Request from GreekTown BIA for Extension of Flankage Patio Hours |
Origin |
(June 10, 2010) Letter from Councillor Paula Fletcher, Ward 30 and Councillor Case Ootes, Ward 29 |
Summary |
This letter is in response to the June 4, 2010 e-mail from Ms. Faiza Ansari, Senior Manager of Operations for the GreekTown on the Danforth BIA with a request for an extension to the flankage patio hours during the summer months (May-September). In her correspondence, Ms. Ansari states that in this difficult economy the GreekTown on the Danforth BIA would like their businesses to be able to maximize on the brief amount of summer patio weather there is and is therefore requesting an extension of flankage patio hours.
In response to this request, as ex-officio members of the BIA board, we would like to recommend a Pilot Project for the GreekTown on the Danforth BIA be approved in Ward 29 and Ward 30 to extend the flankage patio hours from 11:00 p.m. to midnight during the months of May to the end of September for the following businesses and their patios:
390 Danforth Avenue 426 Danforth Avenue 442 Danforth Avenue 484 Danforth Avenue 519 Danforth Avenue 521 Danforth Avenue 526 Danforth Avenue 552 Danforth Avenue 561 Danforth Avenue 564 Danforth Avenue 604 Danforth Avenue 710 Danforth Avenue 798 Danforth Avenue 840 Danforth Avenue 888 Danforth Avenue
When the pilot project is complete, we would request that Municipal Licensing and Standards staff report back to Toronto and East York Community Council on results and the feasibility of extending this exemption in future years. |
