Item - 2019.SC7.6

Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council enact a Part Lot Control Exemption By-law with respect to the subject lands at 1001 Ellesmere Road Block 1 (Parts 1 to 45) and Block 2 (Parts 1 to 24) on Plan of Subdivision 66M-2555, as generally illustrated on Attachment 2 to the report (June 12, 2019) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District, to be prepared to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor and to expire two years following enactment by City Council.

2. City Council require the owner to provide proof of payment of all current property taxes for the subject lands to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor, prior to the enactment of the Part Lot Control Exemption By-law.

3. City Council authorize and direct the City Solicitor to register the Part Lot Control Exemption By-law on title.

4. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Part Lot Control Exemption By-law as may be required.

The subject applications request exemption from the Part Lot Control provisions of the Planning Act to allow the creation of 45 townhouse lots within a future common elements condominium on Block 1 (Parts 1 to 45) under application 18 174528 ESC 37 PL, and 22 standard townhouse lots on Block 2 (Parts 1 to 24) under application 18 174513 ESC 37 PL.  The subject lands are within a registered plan of subdivision that was registered on June 12, 2019 as Plan 66M-2555.

This report reviews and recommends approval of Part Lot Control Exemption.  The proposals comply with the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2014) and conform to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019).  The lifting of the Part Lot Control for a period of two years is considered appropriate for the orderly development of the lands.
