Item - 2023.TE4.8

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend Zoning By-law 569-2013 for the lands at 101 - 105 Spadina Avenue and 363 Adelaide Street West, substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment included as Attachment 5 to the report (March 23, 2023) from the Acting Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment as may be required.

3. Before introducing the necessary Bills to City Council for enactment, City Council require the applicant to address all outstanding comments in Section A of the Memorandum from Engineering and Construction Services dated January 27, 2023, in relation to servicing matters, and any subsequent memorandums prepared in response to applicant resubmission(s), to the satisfaction of the Chief Engineer and Executive Director, Engineering and Construction Services.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on April 12, 2023 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013 to permit the redevelopment of the southern portion of the site at 101 - 105 Spadina Avenue and 363 Adelaide Street West (the "development site") with a 39-storey mixed-use building. The site is subject to a proposed real estate transaction between the applicant and the City of Toronto which would reconfigure the existing parcels of land to facilitate the proposed development and also a 1,000 square metre City park on the northern portion of the site fronting Spadina Avenue and Adelaide Street West. The proposed City park is not subject to the application to amend the Zoning By-law, but is proposed as part of the real estate transaction.

The proposed 39-storey mixed-use building on the development site would contain 375 dwelling units and 194 square metres of retail space. A parking garage is proposed beneath the building and the proposed City park, with 72 resident and 70 public parking spaces. The public parking spaces are to be operated by the Toronto Parking Authority (TPA). The Zoning By-law Amendment application applies only to the development site where the mixed-use building is proposed, as well the below-grade parking garage.

The proposed development would result in a built form that fits within the existing and planned context and improves the public realm along both Spadina Avenue and Oxley Street.
