Subject:Proposed closing of a portion of the public lane extending easterly from Elmer Avenue, between Premises Nos. 71 and 75 Elmer Avenue. (East Toronto)

Purpose:

To obtain City Council authority for the stopping up and closing of a portion of the public lane extending easterly from Elmer Avenue, between Premises Nos. 71 and 75 Elmer Avenue.

Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:

Not applicable

Recommendations:

1. That the portion of the public lane situated between Premises Nos. 71 and 75 Elmer Avenue, shown hatched on the attached Plan SYE 2888, be stopped-up and closed; and

2. That the appropriate City Officials be authorized to take the necessary action to give effect to the foregoing, including the introduction in Council of any Bills that might be required, and give notice to the public.

Comments:

Works and Emergency Services has received and evaluated a request from the owner of Premises No. 71 Elmer Avenue to stop-up and close the portion of the public lane shown hatched on the attached Plan SYE 2888. The closing is required by the applicant for the construction of a residential garage. I have assessed the proposal and consider it feasible.

A separate report on the terms and conditions of the sale of the lands will be submitted to the Corporate Services Committee by the Commissioner of Corporate Services.

This undertaking is pre-approved in accordance with Schedule "A" of the Class Environmental Assessment for Municipal Road Projects.
