Even More On Council Approval Process!

In order to have our Oxton-Oriole stop sign re-installed Committees of Council approval is required. The Committees of Council discuss city issues before passing them on to the full Council for debate and final approval. During committee meetings, the opinions and concerns of citizens, business owners and other community groups are brought forward.

Our safety concerns will be presented to our local Community Council (one of three types of Committes of Council) called the Toronto & East York Council. Generally, Community Council responsibilities "include making recommendations to City Council on local planning and development matters, as well as neighbourhood matters including traffic plans, parking regulations and exemptions to certain City bylaws (i.e., sign, fence, ravine and tree bylaws)."

Hope this helps, Mark
