Naming of Private Lane - Brownstone Lane
(Kingsway-Humber)
The Etobicoke Community Council recommends the adoption of the following report (July8,1999) from the City
Surveyor, Technical Services Division:
Purpose:
This report recommends that the private lane at the townhouse development at 4179to4185DundasStreet West be named
"Brownstone Lane".
Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
The estimated costs of $100.00 are to be paid by the applicant.
Recommendations:
(1)That the private lane at the townhouse development at 4179 to 4185 Dundas Street West be named "Brownstone
Lane";
(2)That Zanini Developments Incorporated be required to pay the costs, estimated to be in the amount of $100.00, for the
fabrication and installation of the appropriate signage; and
(3)That the appropriate City officials be authorized and directed to take the necessary action to give effect to, including
the introduction in Council of any Bills that may be required.
Background:
I have a request from Irene Catsibris of Zanini Developments Incorporated (55 Fieldway Road, Etobicoke, On M8Z 3L4)
to name the private lane for the new townhouse development at 4179to4185 Dundas Street West. The development is
situated on the south side of Dundas Street West between Earlington Avenue and Prince Edward Drive North. The name
"Brownstone" is in reference to the masonry material used in buildings.
Comments:
The proposed name has been circulated to Councillor Mario Giansante, Councillor Gloria Lindsay Luby, Toronto Planning
and Fire Services for comment. The name has the support of Councillor Mario Giansante, Councillor Gloria Lindsay Luby
and Toronto Planning. Fire Services does not support the name because it is too similar to Branstone Road in York District
and Ranstone Gardens in Scarborough District.
Conclusions:
The proposed name is generally acceptable, not duplicated in the City of Toronto and should be approved for the private
lane at the new townhouse development at 4179to4185DundasStreetWest.
