Origin

(August 23, 2021) Report from the Acting Director, Community Planning, North York District

Summary

This application proposes to amend the City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013 and the former City of North York Zoning By-law No. 7625 to permit a three-storey townhouse development within one block containing eight units at 241 to 243 Finch Avenue East. The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and conforms to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020), the Official Plan and the Central Finch Area Secondary Plan.

 

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the zoning by-laws for the site. The proposal represents an appropriate level of intensification along Finch Avenue East as contemplated by the Central Finch Area Secondary Plan, while providing a transition to the existing lower scaled residential neighbourhood to the south.
