The Toronto Community Council recommends the adoption of the following motion, placed by Councillor Miller and seconded by Councillor Korwin-Kuczynski:

"WHEREAS the Junction Gardens BIA Farmers Market, which is part of the Dundas Street West Action Plan for the rejuvenation of this area, has been very successful over the past four years; and

WHEREAS the Junction Gardens BIA Farmers Market may be assessed very high fees for the temporary street closures and sidewalk sale permits needed to facilitate the Farmers Market; and

WHEREAS the former City of Toronto agreed to waive all such fees in prior years;

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT City Council waive the temporary street closing and sidewalk sale fees for the Junction Gardens Farmers Market to be held each Saturday from June 1 to October 31, 1998".
