No More Noise wants to hear from you!

No More Noise has a new website. It’s packed full of information about who they are, what they have accomplished so far, information on specific noise irritants, suggestions about what can be done, and how they are addressing the negative impacts of excessive noise in our cities.

Have a look and let them know how you feel about the way they are telling their story.

Today is a perfect day to share some love with those who need our help

It’s difficult to believe that one of the wealthiest neighbourhoods in the city would need a food bank or a drop-in program. But it’s true. The Avenue Road Food Bank and the Common Table drop-in program need your support.

City Plans to rezone our neighbourhood to permit greater heights and density

As a result of a Provincial decision, the City is rezoning neighbourhoods within 500 to 800 meters of major transit stations, or about a 10 minute walk from the Rosedale, Summerhill, Bloor/Yonge, Bay, and Museum subway stations. This targets the entire ABCRA area for large increases in heights and densities, even though significant high density development has already occurred here in recent years.

We strongly encourage residents to attend these consultations. A strong turnout can encourage responsible planning for growth.Learn about the zoning changes, ask questions, voice your concerns and provide your opinions.

Register now for Jan. 21 Virtual Town Hall at 6:30 p.m. or one of the other meetings listed in the full post.
