Summary
City Council at its meeting on September 21 and 22, 2011 requested the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning to report back on any actions required to ensure that development north of Keating Channel is not delayed by the actions of City Council.
By-law 1174-2010 establishes zoning provisions to guide development in the Keating Channel Precinct West, north of Keating Channel. The by-law reflects a municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) for roads, bridges, transit and hard services which is in effect.
By-law 1174-2010, and Official Plan Amendments 388 and 389 which apply to the Lower Don Lands and vicinity, are under appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board.
The Keating Channel Precinct West is the first precinct in the Lower Don Lands where Council has adopted zoning amendments to permit mixed use development. Staff will continue with the previous Council direction to resolve appeals at the Ontario Municipal Board as they apply to Keating Channel Precinct West and other lands north of Keating Channel.
