It is confusing alright, no doubt about that.

In 1990, the former City of North York passed By-law 31261, which adopted Official Plan
Amendment (OPA) 318. Policy 9.39.0 of OPA 318 states that “In the event that development
proposals are received for lands shown on Map C.9.39, Council will seek to obtain an access to
Wilson Avenue from the Canadian Tire site at 2701 Keele Street, and a consolidation of the
driveways providing access to Keele Street from the sites at 2701 and 2737 Keele Street. Where
feasible, the consolidated driveways and new access to Wilson Avenue should be constructed as
one road.” Map C.9.39 is shown in the attached Figure No. 1.

Is it possible that without a road in place, their project is in a little $^%* as well? "Sorry Independence Way customers... that car we gave you with your purchase didn't come with a road included."

I don't think I'll be getting any sleep tonight based on the things I've read in this room.

They were hoovering out the dirt as fast as possible, well into the night.

And then what happen'd - end of story or end of impromptu excavation?

Elvis, to satisfy your curiosity, I was stuck in the Maritimes when I was e-mailing. So, clearly I'm back in Toronto but while I was away since I didn't know if anyone would respond in here I had some loved ones working on digging for information on the upcoming court hearing. NO DICE!!! That Matthew Bivens seems to be a figurehead. (When I come upon City workers like him, how can I NOT think of the rampant nepotism our tax dollars fuel???)

Thankfully all of you have been so generous as to provide the different pdf links that I just printed everything out and have created a file to give my lawyer. If he can find anything out without going to court, it will cost me a lot less in legal fees!!! (Of course, I'll keep you posted on anything I learn. I'm all for info-sharing!)

Now on to what you said about Joe and Tony. People moved into units at Independence Way back in late January and early February so it is highly possible that their postings are valid. The construction however, cannot possibly be complete though because my back patio was supposed to be 198sq. ft. and when I went for the PDI, I couldn't even step out of the sliding doors (gotta wonder how secure those will be).

The builder, from what I understand, is a pretty slithery guy. Again, this is strictly heresay.

I will tell you this however, I got screwed on my upgrades. They told me to come in for my "colour selections and upgrades" meanwhile, little did I know that by the time I had the appointment and made said selections, walls (and electrical) were up and tubs and sinks were in and truthfully, I didn't have ANY choice on CERTAIN things.

Upon learning this information, they totally lost all credibility with me (considering how many times they pushed back the move in date and lied to me about other things) and so I had to make a formal complaint. The girl who took all my information, it seems, was simply PULLING my LEG for the most part letting me think it was possible to upgrade stuff that was already complete! Not very nice, eh?

This is a far cry from the Bridle Path and a definite few steps up from Parkdale, Jane and Finch or Jamestown.

p.s. Going back to last Wednesday night's post, what did you mean a few of you were "thrown out" long ago? Further, I'm totally into hearing the three recordings you mentioned! (hedonics has great telephone to PC devices, btw)

I know that I'm not in the best area of Toronto but I'm prepared to make do with what I have for now. Hearing or reading trash-talk about my locale is just depresssing more than anything and I am certainly not going to discriminate against neighbours I don't even know yet.
