Show us the plans, Councillor Giambrone!


We've been working hard to try and get some site plans for the new parking lot. We have talked with the president of the Toronto Parking Authority, who pretends to know something but truly doesn't know anything.


Our concerns about the parking lot are numerous. We have been asking the TPA president about the flow of cars, and when he answers us it is clear that there are no clear plans that he is aware of. This is discouraging... there are plenty of hidden angles and children walking around in Dragon Alley. It is already scary to walk down there because you never know if cars will see you when they're turning off of Dufferin. A poorly planned parking lot will just make things more frightful.


We have received the following email today from the mayor's office. Let's see the plans Giambrone!!


Thank you for writing. We have spoken with Councillor Giambrone's office and ascertained that they have a copy of the site plan which they are more than willing to share with you. As you know, the land is owned by and construction co-ordinated by, the Parking Authority of Toronto, the Mayor does not have plans for the lot.


Please contact Councillor Giambrone's office to arrange a meeting and view the site plan.
Thanks again for writing,
