07Risks and environment at 1236 Sheppard Ave E

Flood and shoreline hazards
Inside a flood hazard area This address

TRCA's maps show this address is inside an area that could flood in a major storm (TRCA plans for a storm like Hurricane Hazel in 1954) or along the lake shore. Ask about flood insurance, and expect extra approvals for building work. It is inside TRCA's regulated area, so additions, grading or other work may need a TRCA permit. Basement flooding from overloaded sewers can still happen anywhere in the city.

Lead in tap-water tests, postal area M2K
0% of tests above Ontario's limit Your area · M2K

In postal area M2K, 0 of 31 home tap-water samples (0%) tested above Ontario's limit for lead (10 micrograms per litre). Across Toronto, 2.0% of samples did, so M2K is lower than the city overall. Health Canada recommends a stricter limit of 5 micrograms per litre: 1 samples here (3.2%) were above it. These are voluntary tests, mostly from older homes, so they don't tell you about this house. Lead comes from old pipes and plumbing, not the City's treatment plants. If your home was built before the mid-1950s, you can get a free test kit by calling 311.
