MEETING MONDAY MARCH 30TH S.H. ARMSTRONG COMMUNITY CENTRE; COMMUNITY NEEDS TO PUSH BACK AT THE OMB

On Monday March 30th from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. the ETCC is holding a community meeting at the S.H. Armstrong Community Center 56 Woodfield Rd.  At the meeting we’ll outline what’s at stake and what we can do at the Ontario Municipal Board as a group to show the Board there is strong community opposition to this over-scaled, poorly designed precedent-setting development. We’ve also asked a member of the Greater Beaches Neighbourhood Association to speak to us about their experience at the OMB and any recommendations.   We are asking both City Councillors Fletcher and McMahon to attend.

It’s important to remember that this development will be the first of possibly many and so it’s incredibly important for the neighbourhood that it be done right.  Leslieville shouldn’t have to sacrifice heritage buildings and green space for an oversized condo complex that adds nothing to the fabric of the community.

Thanks for your help and commitment to foster good urban design and responsible development in Leslieville!!
