HELP STOP THE MEMORIAL PARK DOME

We the undersigned stand opposed to the proposal by the Toronto District School Board, the City of Toronto, and the North Toronto Soccer Club to place artificial turf on the Memorial Park soccer field and erect a three storey high dome over part of the field during the winter months. 

The proposal fails to take into account parking difficulties in the area, existing traffic problems as a result of heavy arena and park use, environmental concerns related to the installation and maintenance of the field, economic concerns over the long term viability of the project and  any resulting impact on taxpayers, safety issues, loss of green space, lack of community access to the field, and devaluation of surrounding residential properties.

We do not oppose the improvement of the soccer field. We do oppose
the installation of artificial turf and the erection of a three storey high dome over our park.
