Description

I have been talking to the City of Toronto, its transportation and parks departments, as well as my City Councillor's staff since January, 2013 regarding some problems that the city acknowledges exist but have yet to resolve. Perhaps you can help move things along.

The "parkette" at the western, (foot-end) of McGill St. (College/Yonge area) used to have three benches, two garbage cans and a flower bed. All of that is gone and the city claims it will rectify the problem and replace the benches. To date, nothing has happened and it looks quite barren. Many seniors used the area and now there are no seats or waste receptacles. Also, the city left a valve 6" above ground level and bolted a warning cone over it. Not very classy for a city trying to look first-rate. Also, the restaurant's patio (probably illegal) used to have wrought iron fencing. The fencing has been removed and now leans up against the building creating a major eye-sore, along with the soil which doesn't even have a hedge.

I hope something can be done.

Cheers! All my best to you
