(May 17, 2018) Report from the Acting Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District

Summary

Staff are currently conducting a City-initiated zoning review of land-use permissions in a portion of the Port Lands. This review is assessing the compatibility of current use permissions with the direction set out in the Port Lands Planning Framework, a comprehensive planning study which included a review of the land use permissions in the Port Lands at an Official Plan level. In order to allow staff sufficient time to implement the directions in the Port Lands Planning Framework, Council subsequently adopted an Interim Control By-law for selected areas of the Port Lands.

 

On October 2, 2018 Interim Control By-law No. 979-2017 will expire and the zoning review study is not complete. This report recommends that Interim Control By-law No. 979-2017 for the Port Lands be extended to prohibit certain incompatible uses in a portion of the Port Lands for a period of one additional year while City staff continue to implement the zoning review for the McCleary District, Media City, Turning Basin District, Warehouse District, East Port, South Port East and South Port districts (see Attachment 3).
