From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, Council was asked to authorize a pre-servicing agreement with Metro Ontario Inc. for on-site works at 435 McNeely Avenue. The report said Metro-Food Basics wanted to begin earthworks, servicing, utilities, road subgrade, lighting conduit, traffic signal conduit, Enbridge Gas services, and Hydro One services before the full development permit could be finalized.
Staff also noted a $5 million liability insurance requirement and a security deposit equal to 50% of the value of the on-site works. Decision state: scheduled for council consideration.
