The Toronto and East York Community Council:

 

1.         Directed the General Manager, Parks, Forestry and Recreation to oversee a working group of staff from other appropriate City divisions and agencies including but not limited to the TTC, Toronto Parking Authority, and Transportation Services to do a review, including community consultation, of the feasibility of creating an integrated design for revitalizing the Logan Green Field and Langford Parkette and adjacent City property along the lines of a "linear" park, and report back on the outcome to the appropriate committee.

Origin

(June 11, 2014) Letter from Councillor Mary Fragedakis, Ward 29, Toronto-Danforth

Summary

Due to issues raised in the community around connectivity in the Danforth corridor from Chester Station to Langford Parkette, I believe this would be an appropriate time to link a number of ongoing projects with respect to local parks, green space, parking lots, etc.
