Community Council Recommendations

The Toronto East York Community Council recommends that:

 

1.         City Council approve the name, "Salvador Allende Court", to identify the proposed public street at 1145 Ossington Avenue.

Decision Advice and Other Information

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a public meeting on August 12, 2014, and notice was given in accordance with the City of Toronto Act, 2006, of the proposed enactment of the draft by-law and was posted on the City's website.

Origin

(July 18, 2014) Report from the Director, Engineering and Construction Services

Summary

At its meeting of June 17, 2014, the Toronto and East York Community Council adopted Item TE33.88 requesting the Manager of Land and Property Surveys to investigate and report to the Toronto and East York Community Council on the suitability of naming the proposed public street located within the development at 1145 Ossington Avenue as "Salvador Allende Boulevard", or any other appropriate street type designation.

 

The naming proposal does not comply with the City of Toronto Honourific and Street Naming Policy because consent from the named party’s representative was not provided, as is required by the Policy.

 

This report recommends that the name be rejected because of non-compliance.
