a.  The conditions as generally listed in Attachment 4 to the report (August 28, 2019) from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District, which, except as otherwise noted, must be fulfilled prior to final approval and the release of the Plan of Subdivision for registration; and

 
b.  Any such revisions to the proposed subdivision plan or any such additional modified conditions as the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning may deem to be appropriate to address matters arising from the on-going technical review of the development at 215 Lake Shore Boulevard East.

This application for Draft Subdivision Approval proposes two (2) development blocks, which would permit a maximum gross floor area of 134,750 square metres of mixed-use development (approximately 84,000 square metres in Phase 1, and 48,000 square metres for Phase 2). 

The subject site (FedEx North) is located at 215 Lake Shore Boulevard East, and is part of a larger block of land, which includes properties at 178-180 Queens Quay East (FedEx South), and 162 Queens Quay East.  The FedEx North property is owned by Greenland Lakeside Development Company Ltd (Greenland).

The Draft Plan of Subdivision application includes the Owner's contribution to lands necessary for the creation of a new public road and land dedications to be conveyed to the City for the reconfiguration of Lower Sherbourne Street.

A related zoning by-law amendment application was filed by Greenland to remove the holding symbol (H) from Phase 1 of the development on the lands consisting of Block 3 on Part of Block 13, Registered Plan 694-E, located on the south of Lake Shore Boulevard East, west of Lower Sherbourne Street.  A copy of the final report can be found here:
