Kensington Market
The City’s planning staff met early in 2003 with the Kensington Market Action Committee (KMAC) regarding a variety of residential and commercial concerns including garbage, lighting and the making Kensington Market pedestrian-only. The City’s planning staff will be presenting an improvement plan for the Market to Toronto/East York Community Council early this fall.
Upcoming meetings are being organized to discuss garbage and making Kensington Market pedestrian-only. For more information, contact Constituency Assistant Helen Kennedy in Olivia’s office at 416-392-4124.
