The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of two trees is that the trees are causing damage to hardscape areas, uplifting interlocking pavers, and shifting adjacent concrete surfaces, resulting in tripping hazards. The property owner is also concerned the roots could be damaging the foundation of the building. </p>

<p>The two honey locust trees (Gleditsia triacanthos) measure 72 cm and 60 cm in diameter respectively. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of these trees as they are both healthy and maintainable. The permit was denied, and the applicant is appealing the decision. The Community Council has delegated authority from the City Council to make a final decision as to whether a permit may be issued when an applicant appeals the City's decision to deny a tree permit.</p> | 30 | 3 | CCOUNCIL | SC | 22 - Scarborough - Agincourt | N | — | … | Report |

| 145747 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | — | Highway 2A Sound Mitigation Update | 2026.SC30.5 | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>At its meeting on June 4, 2021, Scarborough Community Council requested Transportation Services to report back on sound mitigation along Highway 2A. In response to Community Council direction, Transportation Services retained a consultant to undertake a feasibility study to consider sound mitigation along Highway 2A.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The length studied is approximately 1.5 km per side, for approximately 3.0 km in total along Highway 2A, generally between the Highland Creek overpass and Newmains Court. The intent was to evaluate extent of transportation noise in the area and opportunities to mitigate the noise, including the exploration of building a noise barrier.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As part of the feasibility study, a noise study was completed to confirm the location and desired height of the sound barrier infrastructure and investigate alternative sound mitigation approaches, such as lowering the road classification or reducing posted speeds. Additional studies, including an Arborist Report, Geotechnical Report, and Soil Characteristic Report, were also completed. The final deliverable provided an options-assessment and a Functional Design of sound barriers and informed high-level capital cost estimates for sound mitigation infrastructure.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The City of Toronto does not have a program to assess the eligibility to implement sound mitigation infrastructure along municipal roadways or expressways. While some jurisdictions have programs for assessing the eligibility of noise wall mitigation at locations adjacent to roadways or expressways (e.g. the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, the Region of Peel, and the Town of Oakville), at the municipal level these programs typically include a requirement for cost-sharing between residential property owners and the municipality.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Given that the City of Toronto does not have a means of assessing and prioritizing eligibility for sound barriers (except where those requirements exist as part of the development approval process), or a mechanism to fund (and potentially cost-share with adjacent landowners) such infrastructure, Transportation Services does not recommend advancing the implementation of sound mitigation for Highway 2A.</p> |

<p>Transportation Services has reviewed the need for pedestrian crossing protection on Homestead Road, between Coronation Drive and Skelding Court.

<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services has reviewed the need for speed cushions on Nightstar Road, between Morningside Avenue and Mantis Road/Knotwood Crescent/Flower Crescent. The assessment indicates the warrant criteria as set out in the updated Traffic Calming Policy has not been satisfied. Therefore, staff do not recommend the installation of speed cushions on Nightstar Road.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>During the course of the investigation, it was noted that there is discrepancy between the by-lawed heavy vehicle prohibition and the posted sign on Nightstar Road. Recommendation 2 will correct this inconsistency.</p> | 30 | 8 | CCOUNCIL | SC | 25 - Scarborough - Rouge Park | N | 1776830400000 | … | Report | ACTION | Amended | Main |

| 145752 | REPORT | N | N | MAIN | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | — | Kennedy Road, at a point 140 metres north of Dancy Avenue -Traffic Control Signals | 2026.SC30.10 | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>As the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) operates a transit service on Kennedy Road, City Council approval of this report is required.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services is requesting approval to install traffic control signals on Kennedy Road at a point 140 metres north of Dancy Avenue and to remove the existing pedestrian refuge island (PRI) on Kennedy Road, approximately 50 metres north of Dancy Avenue. The traffic control signals will provide enhanced safety for all road users and is justified based on the assessment undertaken. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are several factors for the proposed recommendations:</p>
<p>- PRI's do not provide right-of-way for pedestrians and are not considered an enhanced form of pedestrian crossing protection.</p>
<p>- The heavy traffic on the five-lane cross-section of Kennedy Road poses potential safety concerns for pedestrians crossing at the PRI to access the TTC bus shelters located on both sides of Kennedy Road in the vicinity of the PRI.</p>
<p>- The distance between the nearest protected pedestrian crossings (traffic control signals) on Kennedy Road is approximately 790 metres.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Additionally, staff recommend relocating the existing TTC bus stops and shelters on Kennedy Road to new locations, adjacent to the proposed traffic control signals. This work would be undertaken in conjunction with the installation of the traffic control signals and the removal of the PRI.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The above recommendations will provide improved accessibility and a safer and more convenient crossing of Kennedy Road pedestrians, including TTC passengers.</p> | 30 |

<p>Raleigh Avenue is a residential street where local businesses and residents have been repeatedly inconvenienced by ongoing disregard for current parking bylaws. Issues include illegal parking, blocking of driveways, storage of unlicensed vehicles on the street, and general obstruction of traffic. Direct communication has not resolved the matter, and while Parking Enforcement has responded to numerous complaints and ticketed accordingly, the conduct continues. Both Parking Enforcement and Transportation Services have indicated that a further Parking By-law amendment would be helpful in relieving some of these concerns.</p>
