Power outages yesterday
The power went out a few times yesterday. Work was being done on the ‘feeder’ power lines along Tamworth. Works crews were doing their every-three-year check of the trees near the lines and pruning where they felt necessary.
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign? The lyrics of Signs by Five Man Electrical Band always pop into my head whe...

My kids frequently play in Dempsey park and cars pass at an excessive speed through that intersection so that a child can get easily hurt

Residing next to this intersection and Dempsey Park, I am concerned for the safety of my children crossing Tamworth. Drivers often either drive too fast or assume there is an all-way stop here, causing confusion and near accidents.

As a pedestrian going to work I am at risk from the fast north south traffic. Lots of confusion at the intersection. Quite busy lots of children going to school. Commuter traffic travels fast to Parkholm.

Residing next to this intersection and having three young children who play in Dempsey Park (across this intersection), I see nearly daily the confusion and risk to safety this intersection poses to both pedestrians and drivers, most of whom behave as if this is an all-way stop intersection. Near accidents are frequent and an all-way stop needs to be implemented to prevent injury, or worse.

I have witnessed three accidents involving cars and bicycles in the last 8 years, and many near accidents involving pedestians because many people treat this intersection as a 4- way stop.

I have witnessed many near accidents at this intersection and believe a four way stop is imperative to maintaining community safety.

The traffic moves quickly on this stretch of Tamworth, yet some drivers already treat this as a 4-way stop. This creates a situation that is dangerous for motorists, and especially dangerous for the many pedestrians using this route.

I am signing because I am living right at the corner of Ellerlsie and Tamworth and I see a great need for this part of the road to be a four-way stop. Children cross this streets to go to school at peak hours and I have seen so many car accidents and near misses of children cycling or in strollers right across our house.

I have experienced numerous "close calls" at this corner over the past 16 years between cars pulling out on Tamworth from Ellerslie and pedestrians crossing Tamworth while walking on Ellerslie. I have also arrived at this corner a number of times after accidents have occured.

Many times cars (or well the drivers) 'think' there is a stop here, so they stop, sometimes they do not....and with so many kids heading to and from the park, and also folks crossing to get to the Subway, along with kids heading to Willowdale Middle School (at the top of Ellerslie) it just makes sense to get a stop sign at this intersection.

These are our children, mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters. Please help prevent a needless accident or death.
Area resident [name removed by request] has posted the above petition to Change.org to "Implement an All-Way Stop at Ellerslie Av. and Tamworth Rd." Flyers at the corner of Tamworth & Ellerslie are stapled up.
Committee of Adjustments hearing for 157 Ellerslie's file number A863/14NY will be heard this week, December 10, during the 3:30pm session.
The sign out front announcing the variances was only posted for 2 days before being removed last week.
These two volunteers, Chris and Alexander, were out distributing the attached flyer to the residents of Ellerslie this afternoon on behalf of the John Filion Campaign.
Street Sweeper
The street sweeper was by again today. Last seen June 20th. Trying to collect leaves from the side of the road. Big task. Machine not really designed for it. Much clogging of the intake.
A crew from FLOW KLEEN emptied the storm basins on the street today. This try to make it to every one in the city every two years. Catch Basin Cleaning seems to be the official term.
253 Ellerslie Ave SOLD
Listed at $998,880 on MLS C3032311
Speed monitor device installed.
Tuesday morning this week, a pole was inserted on the edge of the road in front of 222 and 224 Ellerslie Ave with a solar panel and black block attached to it.
Upon closer inspection it is a "Traffic Logic SafePace 450" unit in what appears to be 'stealth mode' (serial # 14090393) . This device seems to be collecting traffic speeds as cars head west bound toward Senlac. Ironically the 'Guild Electricians' crew that installed it, have it obstructing the 'School Zone' sign which traditionally meant that the speed limit was now 40km.
It is unknown at this time if it is in fact collecting data covertly, or if it just hasn't been turned on yet to display a warning to drivers who are speeding.
On whose authority was this surveillance device placed here? Willowdale Middle School? Toronto Transportation Services? A 'concerned citizen'? A private party?
More trees coming down
255 Ellerslie which sold a couple months ago is currently cutting down their two mature crab apple trees in the front yard. The person doing the cutting, says he is working for Anderson Consulting on order of the developer who he was unable to identify. The City's street tree database ids them at 20 and 25cm, but that is old information, there is a chance they made it up to 30cm where the bylaw kicks in. Structure IDs NY3620 and NY3621.
Across the street at 244 Ellerslie more tree injury is occurring to the large manitoba maple that hangs over their yard from next door. Both properties recently sold and will probably be demolished?

10 days into the 60 day auction and the current bid is $120.00.

$135.00 Girlspiral
$130.00 Girlspiral
$125.00 MOMMY

It isn’t clear why the same people seems to out-bid themselves. Perhaps the website give some bidders the option to be anonymous and the interim bids aren’t displayed? Except they do go up by $5 at a time which seems to indicate there are no missing bids.
The auction has concluded. 'dragontea' is the winner of the Ellerslie Av street sign for $145.
