It is also recommended that the existing Heritage Easement Agreement is amended to reflect this proposal.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposal is in connection with the redevelopment of the site to allow for the construction of a 49-storey mixed-use building. The Ontario Municipal Board granted approval for this scheme in 2017. The approved scheme included the conservation of and alterations to the front façade of the historic Purman Building at 263 Adelaide Street West. In order to conserve this façade a retention frame was to be installed on the sidewalk in front of the heritage building.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Since 2017 the TTC has planned a detour of the 501 Queen Streetcar along this section of Adelaide Street West to allow for the construction of the Ontario Line along Queen Street. As a consequence of this, overhead support cables and streetcar power supply cables are being installed along the south side of Adelaide Street. The façade retention system as approved would interfere with the TTC streetcar power supply. It therefore needs to be narrowed and this means it cannot support the whole façade of the Purman Building.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A revised conservation strategy for the Purman Building is now proposed that takes into account the proximity of the TTC cables. The revised scheme includes the insitu retention of the first three floors of the heritage building with the panelization and removal of the top two floors to allow for the construction of a 49-storey mixed use building without interference with the TTC power supply. The panelized sections of the front façade would be reinstalled once the retained façade has been secured into the new building and a new parapet would be reinstated that is designed to match the original based on archival documentation.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The proposed alterations conserve the heritage values and attributes of the historic Purman Building property consistent with the existing policy framework and the impact of the new development is being appropriately mitigated.</p> |

<p> </p>
<p>As directed by City Council in 2019, the Area Transportation Planning unit in Transportation Services initiated a study of the Avenue Road corridor between Bloor Street West and St. Clair Avenue West, focused on improving pedestrian safety. The study’s two objectives are to develop a vision for the road that improves safety for all road users, and to identify near-term actions that can be taken to move toward the vision, in advance of full road reconstruction. Over the last four years, Transportation Services has made several changes to the roadway to improve road user safety and reduce motor vehicle speeding. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>This report provides an interim update on the Avenue Road Study and proposes site-specific safety improvements focused on the 280 metre segment between Davenport Road and Dupont Street, targeted for implementation beginning in 2024. A final Avenue Road Study report will be presented at a future Infrastructure and Environment Committee meeting to provide recommendations on the long-term vision, and near-term plan for the segment of Avenue Road between Dupont Street and St. Clair Avenue West. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>As part of this report, Transportation Services is continuing to utilize the streamlined reporting process for by-law amendment submissions associated with road safety projects approved by Council for implementation. Once projects are approved by Council, the streamlined process involves delegation of authority to submit bills directly to Council for a discreet period of time after project implementation which enables Transportation Services to make minor adjustments to constructed conditions without delay and based on local Councillor and public feedback such as parking adjustments to improve sight-lines, adjustments or addition of accessible loading areas, and similar modifications.</p> |

The site is bound by an existing mixed-use building to the west, Harbour Street to the south, Bay Street to the east, and Lake Shore Boulevard West/Gardiner Expressway to the north.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As part of the site plan application of this development, a lay-by is scheduled to be constructed in front of the property on Harbour Street to meet the market needs of Harbour Sixty, which allows for valet service. The lay-by will help facilitate pick-up/ drop-off demands, without impacting traffic flow on Harbour Street. The on-street parking regulation within the lay-by will need to be amended to a “No Standing Anytime” regulation. This will deter parking in this area but allow for the pick-up/drop-off of passengers only.</p> | 14 | 46 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 10 - Spadina - Fort York | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Deferred | Main |

Increasing the parking prohibitions on these roadways will help deter parking close to Yonge Street and improve the over-all traffic operation at this signalized intersection.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>During the course of the investigation, it was noted that there is a discrepancy between posted signs and the existing parking regulations on Price Street.

<p>Residents are now requesting an additional speed hump on Marlborough Place, between Macpherson Avenue and Marlborough Place (east-west section). Residents have observed a dangerous increase in speeding on this section of roadway. An additional speed hump on Marlborough Place, close to its intersection with Macpherson Avenue, may assist in reducing vehicular speed and make conditions safer for local vulnerable road users, especially pedestrians.</p> | 14 | 48 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 11 - University - Rosedale | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | Main | Delegated | — |

Motorists displaying accessible parking permits are parking in these areas and blocking access.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As part of the parking amendment noted above, Transportation Services conducted a detailed on-street parking review on this section of Pearl Street. During their investigation, staff discovered various discrepancies between the traffic by-laws and posted parking regulations on this section of Pearl Street. The parking amendments noted in the table will address this matter.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Transportation Services also recommends the addition of parking prohibitions fronting other driveways on this roadway and the designation of areas that will provide short-term parking for delivery vehicles to address this demand. </p> | 14 | 50 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 10 - Spadina - Fort York | N | … | Letter | ACTION |
| 135133 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Implementation of Permit Parking on Lonsmount Drive and Tweedsmuir Avenue, Permit Area 13K | 2024.TE14.51 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>I am writing to you today to request your support in expanding permit parking area 13K. This item is a continuation of May 7, 2024, Toronto and East York Community Council, where an item was moved to waive the polling requirements for this parking zone’s expansion. At its meeting of May 22, 2024, City Council approved an exemption for the implementation of permit parking on Lonsmount Drive, between Don Francks Lane and Tichester Road and Tweedsmuir Avenue, between Heath Street West and the driveway to 320 Tweedsmuir Avenue, from the requirements of subsection 925-4B of City of Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 925, Permit Parking.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lonsmount Drive, between Don Francks Lane and Tichester Road and Tweedsmuir Avenue, between Heath Street West and the driveway to 320 Tweedsmuir Avenue are presently not licensed for permit parking. Adding these blocks to the permit parking program will result in additional parking spaces for all permit holders within permit parking area 13K.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This letter will alleviate permit parking spot losses that were caused by the installation of the traffic control signal at Heath Street West and Tweedsmuir Avenue/Lower Village Gate. With the passage of this item, permit parking holders will be able to park within the vicinity of their home once again.</p> | 14 | 51 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 12 - Toronto - St. Paul's |

This will result in the removal of two parking spaces, for which I wish to waive all fees and loss of revenue.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>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.</p> | 14 | 52 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 13 - Toronto Centre | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New | Delegated | — | Community Council |
| 135007 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | Implementation of Permit Parking in a Newly Designated Permit Parking Area for Regent Park | 2024.TE14.53 | — | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>I am writing to take advantage of an opportunity for permit parking in the Regent Park neighbourhood. Prior to revitalization, Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) tenants in Regent Park had above ground parking lots with parking for their tenants. Through revitalization and with the start of Phases 4 and 5 construction, TCHC tenants have now lost this above ground parking. Limited underground parking within TCHC buildings has instead been made available. As the City begins to assume roads in Regent Park, this provides an opportunity to add overnight permit parking, while being intentional about using an equity lens to ensure those affordable parking spaces go to TCHC tenants.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Due to the immense population growth pressures in the downtown core and the fixed, extremely limited, street capacity, City Council’s practice of excluding all new developments in the downtown from being eligible for on-street permit parking remains necessary. In these very unique circumstances in Regent Park, I believe that making an exception for TCHC residents is an equity-driven and balanced approach.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This letter is required to exempt petition and polling requirements to implement permit parking on streets within Regent Park. A future report is expected that would properly implement permit parking on the noted streets and to exclude non-TCHC buildings from the new permit parking area. </p> | 14 | 53 | CCOUNCIL | TE |

| 135168 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | — | N | All-Way Stop Control on Lauder Avenue at Cloverlawn Avenue and Rosecliffe Avenue | 2024.TE14.55 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Residents in Northcliffe Village have contacted my office to share concerns regarding speeding vehicles travelling along Lauder Avenue just south of Rogers Road.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In working with the Northcliffe Residents Association and local residents, it was determined there is an immediate need for all-way stop control on Lauder Avenue at Cloverlawn Avenue and Rosecliffe Avenue. These two intersections are frequently used by children and parents crossing Lauder as they head towards Rawlinson Community School. Parents have reported that many vehicles speed through the intersections, resulting in dangerous close calls.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As work on long-term improvements continue through the Oakwood Village Streets Plan, the addition of stop signs at these intersections will improve safety. As such, I respectfully request your support on the following recommendation.</p> | 14 | 55 | CCOUNCIL | TE | 9 - Davenport | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New |
