We wish to preserve and protect the character and charm of the Toronto Beach Neighbourhood. We oppose: - the development/renovation of homes that do not respect nor reinforce the existing character represented by size, lot, mass, scale and green space of the Beach neighbourhood; - development that does not maintain the general intent and purpose of the City of Toronto's: a. zoning code b. by-laws code and c. Official Plan, for our specific neighbourhood; - developers who request building variances that are not minor in nature with respect to the properties surrounding it and most impacted; - developers who seek to over intensify land coverage for maximum profit at the expense of the fabric that characterizes this unique neighbourhood as a distinct village within the City; - demolition of existing character homes for the purpose of developing any non-conforming over-densified projects. Help us to accomplish this. Please sign this petition and send it on to all friends and interested parties, near and far, who know and love the Beach.
