Origin
Summary
This application proposes to remove the holding symbol ("(h)") from site-specific Zoning By-law 817-2013 for the lands at 2-8 Gloucester Street and 601-613 Yonge Street. The lifting of the "(h)" on the subject site will permit the development of a 34-storey mixed use building containing 232 residential units and up to 900 square metres of non-residential space. The "(h)" symbol was placed on the lands until a new watermain is installed on Gloucester Street. This condition has been satisfied.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to remove the "(h)" from the lands.
