Emergency Services
Subject:Extension of Stadium Road southerly, thence westerly. (Trinity-Niagara)
Purpose:
To extend Stadium Road southerly, thence westerly and lay out and dedicate the lands for
public highway purposes.
Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
Not applicable.
Recommendations:
- That the lands, shown hatched on the attached Plan SYE 2912, be laid out and dedicated
for public highway purposes and declared to form part of Stadium Road;
- That standing be prohibited at anytime on both sides of the east-west branch of Stadium
Road from the north-south branch of Stadium Road to the west end of the street; and
- That the appropriate City Officials be authorized to take whatever action is necessary to
give effect thereto, including the introduction in Council of any bills that might be
necessary.
Council Reference:
Under the terms of the Harbourfront Implementation Agreement between the City and Queens
Quay West Land Corporation, the City acquired a parcel of land for the purpose of widening
Stadium Road. (Item No. 60 of Executive Committee Report No. 25, adopted in Council on
September 14 and 15, 1992),
In addition, the former Toronto City Council, at its meeting of October 11, 1994, in adopting
Clause No. 61 in Executive Committee Report No. 23, authorized, among other things, the
acquisition of certain lands to extend Stadium Road southerly, thence westerly.
Comments:
The City is now the owner of Parts 3 and 4 on Plan 63R-3424, and Part 2 on Plan 66R-14741,
shown hatched on the attached Plan SYE2912. These parcels should now be laid out and
dedicated for public highway purposes, and declared to form part of Stadium Road.
Since the above noted parcels provide the only vehicular access route to The National Yacht
Club property at Premises No. 1 Stadium Road, for reasons of safety and security it will be
necessary to regulate this section of the new highway by prohibiting "Standing" at any time on
both sides of the extension.
In order to implement the "No Standing" regulation, it will be necessary to amend Chapter 400
of the City of Toronto Municipal Code.
This undertaking is pre-approved in accordance with Schedule A of the Class Environmental
Assessment for Municipal Road Projects.
