Chief Planner lends an ear
[attach]7789[/attach]Leaside resident Phillip Francis, right, makes a point in discussion with City of Toronto chief planner Jennifer Keesmaat following an April 9 meeting at Leaside Memorial Gardens.
The meeting, organized by Ward 26 councillor John Parker, second from left, gave local residents an opportunity to hear about the city’s Official Plan, as well as pose questions about more localized issues, ranging from what city planning could do to reverse Leaside’s slow transformation into a big-box shopping destination to where the new Canada Post mailboxes might be placed.
Joining the discussion is Leaside resident Hugh Grant, third from left.
