Did you know:
In 2013 the city published a plan for Little Italy that had the apartments on Beech at Champagne slated to turn into a park.

Then in 2014...
The city formalized a neighbourhood plan that lets the lot be used for a six story building…
- “Mid-rise predominantly residential development up to a height of six storeys, with a built form sympathetic to the surrounding low profile residential buildings, may be permitted on the property facing Beech Street between Champagne Avenue and Loretta Avenue.”
But at the same time...
Ev Tremblay Park is still flagged for expansion in the very same plan:
- “Ev Tremblay Park will be enhanced and expanded through design and extensive programming to service the existing and new residents and families.”
How exactly does the city expect to expand Ev Tremblay
If they zone for condo development the only land the park can expand into??
Condo developers pay neighbourhood development charges to the city
Community improvement fees paid by the developers of all the new condos built on Champagne should go to our neighbourhood and improving the park those condos overshadow, not some other part of the ward.
Our neighbourhood is filling up with condo towers! We need more green space!
The city needs to expand Ev Tremblay Park like they promised!
