Summerhill Residents Association (SRA) Priorities

 The TTC is upgrading Summerhill Station for accessibility, causing ongoing roadblocks 

and pedestrian safety concerns around the new entrance. The SRA meets with the TTC 

monthly to address the above issues, minimize disruptions to the neighborhood, and to 

ensure the project stays on track for completion by the end of 2025.

 With many proposed and active projects in and around our area, we continue to actively 

monitor development, working closely with city planners to address local concerns. The 

SRA is meeting with the city every 4–6 weeks, staying ahead of changes and advocating 

for thoughtful growth. We engage with developers to push for aesthetic improvements, 

lower heights, and reasonable density. As a founding member of FONTRA, a coalition of 

30+ North Toronto residents' associations, we remain a strong voice on planning, the 

Committee of Adjustment, and transportation.

 The SRA collaborates with the Midtown Ravines Group and the Vale of Avoca Working 

Group to enhance ravine quality through stewardship and cleanups. We work closely 

with Parks Toronto, reporting necessary repairs and services to keep our green spaces 

well-maintained. The SRA is supporting the creation and design of a new public 

parkette on Jackes Avenue. Additionally, the SRA is advocating with developers for the 

creation of a park between Woodlawn Avenue and Summerhill Avenue.

 The SRA remains committed to working with the City of Toronto, TTC, and Toronto 

Police to enhance neighborhood safety.  We educate residents about crime prevention 

and keeping the community informed of local incidents. 

 The SRA is committed to supporting community initiatives and events to strengthen 

Summerhill’s signature neighborly spirit!
