Following the Spring 2024 interventions at encampments around the Etobicoke Creek Trail, there is a need to continuously monitor the area to deter encampments. There are also limitations to Security Services enforcing TPA notices without assistance from Peel Police.
The City has increased security in the trespass area to prohibit and deter new encampments in the trespass area, with 24-hour security patrols. These patrols monitor the trespass area every 30 minutes. Through the Peel Encampment Working Group, the City will advocate that the Encampment Policy and Joint Protocols provide guidance on how Peel Police, Peel Outreach, and other relevant partners can participate in site conferences involving cases of non-compliant TPA notices and ways for partners to support the removal or relocation of high-priority encampment sites.
