Summary
This report recommends that City Council state its intention to propose an amendment to City of Toronto By-law 820-2021, designating the properties at 40-44 Mitchell Avenue as being of cultural heritage value or interest under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act to correct the legal description of the properties pursuant to Section 30.1 of the Ontario Heritage Act.
By-Law 820-2021 designates the properties at 40-44 Mitchell Avenue, which contains a pair of single-storey semi-detached house form buildings that were among the 16 pairs of workers' cottages completed in 1858 on the subdivision developed by solicitor and realtor James Lukin Robinson on the former Military Reserve lands east of Garrison Creek that were also known as the Garrison Common. Schedule B to By-Law 820-2021 includes an incorrect legal description of the property that was brought to City staff's attention. The proposed amendment to the by-law would correct the legal description of the properties. This amendment will have no impact on the Statement of Significance (Reasons for Designation) in the original report to City Council recommending the property's designation.
