Origin

(August 21, 2020) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District

Summary

This application proposes to extend permission for an existing one-storey structure located at 125 The Esplanade for the continued temporary relocation of the North St. Lawrence Market.  The structure is usually used on weekends for a farmer's market and antique market.  The proposed extension will allow the temporary North Market to continue operations up until 2023, by which time the new North Market building at 92 Front Street East, which is currently under construction, is expected to be complete.

 

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019).

 

This report reviews and recommends the extension of the Temporary Use Zoning By-law for an additional 3 years.
