Study Description
Councillor Ana Bailão and City Planning are conducting a local area study along the rail corridor in Ward 18. The study will focus on the following.

• The transportation network including pedestrian and bicycle routes and connections to the West Toronto Rail Path.
• An inventory of existing parks and open spaces, those needing upgrading and possible locations for new parks.
• The existing and needed community facilities.
• The identification of important heritage buildings
• Identifying incentives to encourage employment uses.
• A review of the school sites.

The study will not be looking at land use in the study area as this is being reviewed as part of the Municipal Comprehensive Review that the city is currently undertaking of all the Employment Lands in the City.

Public Meetings and Community Walks
We will be holding two community meetings in June (the 6th and the 13th), both with the same agenda, but in different parts of the study area. You are welcome to attend either meeting. City staff will describe the purpose of the study and we will welcome your participation and comments on the study topics.

Two community walks will be held in July. The first (July 18) will focus on the north end of the study area, from Bloor Street to Dupont Avenue. The second (July 19) will focus on the south end of the study area, from Queen Street to Bloor Street. You are welcome to attend either or both walks. The purpose of the walks is to identify key opportunities and challenges relevant to the study as discussed at the public meetings.
