Origin
Summary
This application proposes to amend the Zoning By-law to permit the development of a three storey townhouse complex containing five three-bedroom dwelling units.
The proposed development consists of 946 square metres of residential gross floor area representing a floor space index of 1.37 and a lot coverage of 42%.
Vehicular access is proposed from a driveway off Huntingwood Drive, while pedestrians can access the townhouses either from Birchmount Road or a walkway adjacent to the driveway to the rear of the property.
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 proposal conforms to the applicable Official Plan policies and complies with the criteria in the City's Townhouse and Low-Rise Apartment Guidelines through a built form that is compatible with the existing adjacent uses. It will add a modest level of intensification to an underutilized property at the intersection of two Major Streets.
This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law.
