January 6, 2013, hawker bar 164 Ossington Ave Toronto Hello neighbors!, ‘We hope this letter finds you and your family well! We've been delighted to have everyone an Ossington, Foxley, and the surraunding streets as aur neighbors and in that vein, we would like to inform yau of a few changes we'll be making to our restaurant as we wish to gather your thoughts and opinions We intend to apply to the city for a small 23-seat backyard garden patio that serves food and alcohol for lunch and dinner to patrons during the warmer months. This will be a long and complex process however we would like to keep you abreast of our intentions and have an open dialogue with you to address any concems or questions you may have. With that in mind, we have attached a list of conditions that will apply to our garden patio. These conditions will serve us and the neighborhood well as we believe they strike a balance between our need to operate a successful business while placing the concems of our neighbors first. Hawker Bar wants to be a great neighbor bath to your family and to the Ossington-Littie Portugal community. We have been in contact with aur city councillor Mike Layton so that he too may contribute to this discussion. We'd like to give you a clear idea of what type of garden patio we'd like to create: it will be a small 23-seat garden patio featuring extensive use of foliage as both decor and sound- reducing devices. There will be no speakers or music present on the garden patio. Moreover, we will construct a caver on top of the patio to significantly lessen any potential noise disturbance. And, as per our committed patio conditions, we will close the garden patio at 11pm We intend for the garden patio ta be a small, intimate space for those to come and enjoy our great food and drink. So let us begin. We would enjoy the opportunity to meet in the future. We are always available at our email, hawkerbar@amall cam, or you can call us at 647 343 4698. We hope to hear from you soon.
