Origin
Summary
Residents, property owners and businesses in the community have been in contact with my office requesting that we study the area to ensure zoning by-law compliance with the present and future uses in this mixed part of Davenport. The area is bordered by residential on one side and then further surrounded by development applications and requests to convert employment lands. There are a mixture of employment, commercial and residential uses already happening within the area and while the residential uses are permitted by the Official Plan, the Zoning By-law does not presently allow them. In order to provide a greater degree of oversight and certainty to the community going forward I am making the following recommendations.
