Lawrence Avenue East in Scarborough-Guildwood is a little better today because somebody said something, neighbours stood behind it, and the city finished the work. That is how this is supposed to work.

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter
Municipal litter bin #LR-06905 on the sidewalk at 3488 Lawrence Avenue East is vandalized with white spray-painted graffiti on the upper black panel, obscuring the "Litter" label and City of Toronto branding. The bin remains structurally sound and functional, but the graffiti defaces the public fixture.
