President's Update

Greetings everyone and welcome back!

I hope you had a wonderful summer filled with many fond memories. September is here so we are officially going into the fall season with its rich display of colours and cooler evenings. It is hard to believe that the MWHA is entering its 57th year as an association. That is quite an accomplishment and we are very proud of that history. We can only continue to serve our community with your support and financial contribution. The collection of dues has started early this year. Please welcome one of our Directors or Associates who will personally be coming to your door to collect the fee of $20. There are other methods to pay your fees as well. You may pay using PayPal or via e-transfer.

The Association has several committees that support the work of the MWHA, including Markland Watch, Airport Committee and the committee that is involved with the development at 240 Markland Drive. The Association and its committee members are all volunteers that devote an incredible amount of time and energy to issues that are of importance to our community. The Marklander and the email blasts are two very important avenues that we use to keep the residents informed.

The City Planning department seemed to be satisfied that the latest revision was close to being compliant to the Official City Plan for Apartment Neighbourhoods. The Planning department crafted a positive report that they presented to City Council. They recommended the proposal be accepted for the property to be rezoned. Since the developer appealed the project to the Ontario Municipal Board in December 2017, this was a request for guidance from the City Planning Department to the City Council. The agenda was tabled for June 6th, where 11 Etobicoke/York City Councillors would accept or reject the Planning report to recommend a rezoning change.
