Item - 2019.EY2.7

Etobicoke York Community Council deferred consideration of this Item to its meeting on February 14, 2019.

This report provides preliminary information and an early opportunity to raise issues for follow-up with regard to the application. It seeks Community Council's direction on the community consultation process and indicates the expected timing for a Final Report to City Council. The application has been circulated to all appropriate agencies and City divisions for comment and a staff review of the application is underway.

This application proposes to amend the former City of North York Zoning By-law and the City-Wide Zoning By-law to permit six 3-storey single-detached dwellings on lands municipally known as 2996 Weston Road. Four of the dwellings are proposed to have frontages on George McKenzie Court, while the remaining dwellings would front onto Weston Road.  The subject property is partially located on lands that are regulated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) and the Ravine and Natural Features Protection By-law.

The applicant requested a pre-application consultation meeting for assistance in defining the requirements for application submission. Staff held the meeting with the applicant on October 25, 2017.  A notice of complete application with regard to the application was issued on May 23, 2018.

A community consultation meeting is anticipated to be held in the first quarter of 2019. A Final Report will be submitted for Council's consideration following community consultation; the resolution of outstanding issues related to this application; and the holding of a statutory Public Meeting under the Planning Act. The target timeline for the Final Report is anticipated to be during the second quarter of 2019.
