Summary

This report provides a status update on the City-initiated Bloor-Yorkville Secondary Plan study. The study area is generally bounded by Avenue Road to the west, the CP railway corridor to the north, Yonge Street/Rosedale Valley Road/Sherbourne Street to the east, and Charles Street to the south.

 

The Secondary Plan will build upon the existing policy direction outlined in the in-force Site and Area Specific Policies 211 and 225, as well as updated policies, frameworks and guidelines, including the recently approved Downtown Plan. It also will take into consideration the findings and recommendations of a concurrent Heritage Cultural Resource Assessment for the Bloor-Yorkville area.

 

The Secondary Plan will take the form of a City-initiated Official Plan Amendment (OPA). A draft of the proposed Secondary Plan is anticipated to be brought forward to Community Council in Q1 of 2022. This draft Plan will form the basis for community consultation moving forward.
