Très De La Comte3 years ago This idea proposes to install Corktown-themed heritage street lamps throughout Corktown.Transportation Services staff have reviewed and stated the project would cost $30,000 each including material and labour. For a total of 10 lamps, $300,000 will be allocated. Additional fees may apply. Internal ID: TS-14*Note: Ideas that proceed to the voting stage are edited by my office to ensure they are clear, concise, and is complete with images. For accountability and transparency purposes, the original description, as input by the resident, can be found below.Original Description:Goal: Being one of Toronto's oldest neighbourhoods and part of regular walking tours it would be nice to put our best foot forward and upgrade our street lights to match the ones on Bright Street. This would help to preserve and represent the character of Corktown.Note: This is one idea which can be scoped in a range of cost brackets, with associated investments ranging from large to very significant. It is hoped that there will be ongoing dialogue with the Councillor’s office to qualify and shape this idea further as design and cost input is received from staff experts at the City, and prior to it being submitted for voting.

Très De La Comte3 years ago Create a clean safe well lit paved pathway connecting Power Street to Sackville Street/St. Paul Street. Currently there is a well travelled unsafe dirt pathway that travels along the St. Paul School fence witch is being maintained mostly by St. Paul St residence cleaning up needles and garbage as it is currently a haven for drug use and prostitution because of currently being dark and secluded.Many years ago a plan was submitted to the city to put a walking/biking path through there and along the "greenspace" between St Paul and Sackville to connect up the pathway that takes you through to the laneway behind Bright St and onto Bright St. Recently the city finally took a look at the designed plans and came back with the plan would disrupt too much of the tree canopy.The residents of Corktown would greatly benefit from even a revised version of this to at least get the most dangerous portion improved however the city see's fit to make it safer and well lit so that residents feel they can use it even at night safely.This would improve both the functionality, safety, look and feel of historic neighbourhood.Note: This is one idea which can be scoped in a range of cost brackets, with associated investments ranging from large to very significant. It is hoped that there will be ongoing dialogue with the Councillor’s office to qualify and shape this idea further as design and cost input is received from staff experts at the City, and prior to it being submitted for voting.
