Origin

(September 8, 2015) Letter from Councillor Mike Layton, Ward 19, Trinity-Spadina

Summary

It has come to my attention that a number of car sharing spaces approved in rezoning and site plan agreements within my ward have not been built or implemented, despite Council’s decision. I suspect that this may be the case for a number of buildings and I would like staff to look into this to update us on compliance.
