The Leslieville Community Coalition needs help with the next step of our fund-raising initiative. We are is running a full page ad in the Beach Mirror appearing September 24 to launch a campaign looking for Leslieville Visionaries (see below). We are asking individuals like yourselves to be a visionary for the community. We’re challenging people to invest in their vision of what it takes to make a neighbourhood great in order to make it a reality? To do this We Need You!
A Leslieville Visionary is someone who not only recognizes the need to take a stand for good planning, great design, and appropriate development in this area but is also someone willing to invest in our neighbourhood. The character of this unique community is at risk and without vision our section of Queen Street East could become another charmless, generic condo corridor.
The Leslieville Community Coalition is scheduled to go the Ontario Municipal Board in January 2016 to represent this community’s vision for future development. We’re expanding fundraising outreach so that legal and other experts can be retained for the hearing. The focus is to get individuals and businesses to commit to becoming “Leslieville Visionaries” by donating $1000 each. The funds will go directly to help the LCC retain the legal expertise necessary for a seat at the table at the OMB. If you are, or know someone who could be a Visionary please contact us via email or call 416-461-6417 to donate. We will have packages outlining the benefits of becoming a Leslieville Visionary and why it’s so important. Visit the blog for the latest updates.
