The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of the tree is due to concerns related to personal safety and property damage from falling acorns or dead branches.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The red oak tree (Quercus rubra) has three stems measuring 30 centimeters, 48 centimeters, and 52 centimeters in diameter. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable. The permit was denied, and the applicant is appealing the decision. Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision as to whether a permit may be issued when an applicant wishes to appeal the denial of a permit of a tree protected under the By-laws.</p> | 20 | 1 | CCOUNCIL | NY | 15 - Don Valley West | N | … | Report | ACTION | Adopted | Main | Delegated | Public Notice Given | Community Council | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | … | ACTION | true | Adopted | — | — |

<p>Transportation Services is recommending that the existing parking regulation that allows a maximum 10-minute parking on the west side of Botham Road, between Franklin Avenue and Stuart Avenue, be amended to prohibit parking at all times from Stuart Avenue and a point 32 metres north. Due to the intersection geometry of Botham Road and Stuart Avenue / Stuart Crescent the proposed amendment will deter parking to improve vehicle movements by maintaining a clear passage for vehicles and enhance pedestrian visibility.</p> | 20 | 10 | CCOUNCIL | NY | 18 - Willowdale | N | … | Report | ACTION | Adopted | Main | Delegated | — | Community Council | … |

| 138518 | LETTER | N | N | NEW | ACTION | ADOPTED | N | Improving Safety on Bayview Avenue | 2025.NY20.15 | DELEG | — | Y | Y | Y | Y | <p>Bayview Avenue is a busy major arterial road that runs through the center of Don Valley West. South of Moore Avenue, Bayview Avenue has a sharp curve where many north and southbound vehicles tend to travel at high speeds that are not appropriate for a residential and commercial area.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On Thursday, January 2, 2025 a vehicle travelling northbound along this stretch of Bayview Avenue crashed into a concrete barrier located in the parking lot of a grocery store. The driver sustained serious injuries but is expected to survive, in part due to the heroic actions of two by-standers who were able to put out the engine fire before first responders arrived on-scene.</p>
<p><br /> In the short time since I was elected, I have already been contacted by several constituents about this location. While the Toronto Police Service are continuing to investigate the cause of this incident, the City must conduct a parallel review of how the road design could be improved.</p> | 20 | 15 | CCOUNCIL | NY | 15 - Don Valley West | N | … | Letter | ACTION | Adopted | New |
