Use of Parks Levy Funding for St. Clare School
The Strategic Policies and Priorities Committee recommends that prior approval be
granted for funds in the amount of $10,000.00 to be allocated from the Parks Levy funding
received in 1997 to match funds being provided by the Toronto Catholic School Board and
members of the local community for improvement to St. Clare School yard.
The Strategic Policies and Priorities Committee submits the following transmittal letter
(April 3, 1998) from the Toronto Community Council:
Recommendation:
The Toronto Community Council requests the Strategic Policies and Priorities Committee to give
consideration to the following recommendation from the Toronto Community Council, and to
forward its recommendation to City Council for its meeting to be held on April 15, 1998:
"That prior approval be granted for funds in the amount of $10,000.00 to be
allocated from the Parks Levy funding received in 1997 to match funds being
provided by the Toronto Catholic School Board and members of the local
community for improvements to the St. Clare School yard."
Background:
The Toronto Community Council on April 2, 1998 had before it a communication (April 2,
1998) from Councillor Disero, respecting Use of Parks Levy Funding for St. Clare School.
--------
(Communication dated April 2, 1998, addressed to
the Toronto Community Council, from
Councillor Disero)
City Council authorized the use of Parks Levy funds for local improvements in 1997.
Subsequently, the Board of Management authorized the expenditure of these funds on a number
of projects in the ward and work is proceeding on them.
The Toronto Catholic School Board is prepared to provide $10,000.00 to the improvement of the
grounds/parkette at St. Clare School, 124 Northcliffe Boulevard.
This money would be contingent upon the City providing matching funds for a total budget of
$20,000.00. I am proposing to use available parks levy funds for this $10,000.00, as the Board
wishes to begin work on this site later this month.
Recommendation:
That funds in the amount of $10,000.00 be allocated from the Parks Levy funding received in
1997 to match funds being provided by the Toronto Catholic School Board and members of the
local community for improvements to the St. Clare School yard.
