Origin
Summary
This application proposes to lift the Holding (H) symbol for the lands municipally known as 665, 667, 669 and 671 Sheppard Avenue West. This amendment would allow for the development of one five-storey and two three-storey buildings on the site.
The Zoning By-law contains a Holding (H) symbol due to outstanding sanitary capacity issues. A solution for the sanitary capacity issues has been identified and the contract for the works has been awarded. As such, the Chief Engineer and Executive Director of Engineering and Construction Services is satisfied that the works will be completed long before occupancy of this project and are, therefore, satisfied that the hold can be lifted.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to lift the Holding (H) Symbol for the lands at 665, 667, 669 and 671 Sheppard Avenue West.
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 (2020). The redevelopment proposal is in keeping with the Sheppard West/Dublin Secondary Plan by addressing the built form policies of the Plan, appropriately transitioning to the abutting lower density residential uses, and improving the Sheppard Avenue West streetscape.
