Endorsement of Event for Liquor Licence Purposes -

Taste of the Danforth Community Festival (Don River)

 The Toronto Community Council recommends that Council, for liquor licensing purposes, declare the Taste of the Danforth Event to be held at various locations on Danforth Avenue from August 7-9, 1998 inclusive, to be an event of municipal significance and indicate that it has no objection to it taking place.

  The Toronto Community Council also submits the following communication (April 29, 1998) from Councillor McConnell:

 Please have the attached request for a motion to recognize the ATaste of the Danforth@ as a community festival added to the next Community Council meeting.

 Thank you.

 Communication (April 22, 1998) from Sue Graham-Nutter, Greektown On the Danforth Business Improvement Association, addressed to Councillor Pam McConnell.

 Each year for the Taste of the Danforth we require a letter from the City of Toronto which recognizes that the Taste of the Danforth - being held August 7-9, 1998 - as an Aevent of municipal significance and is a recognized Community Festival@.

 This motion is required to process our Special Occasion Permit from the LLBO.

 Ideally we would like to receive this motion as soon as possible to submit our LLBO Permit request with ample time for processing.

 Please call my office with any questions at 698-9053.
