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

The Etobicoke York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on April 8, 2024, and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report proposes City-initiated Zoning By-law amendments to facilitate the delivery of the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension (ECWE) project. The purpose of these amendments is to provide relief from certain zoning provisions related to transportation uses for lands to be acquired by Metrolinx to accommodate Eglinton Crosstown West Extension project elements.

The Zoning By-law amendments affect lands that will accommodate transit facilities such as emergency exit buildings, traction power substations, transit station entrance buildings and temporary facilities required for construction.

The amendments would apply to transportation uses only and are consistent with Official Plan policies and zoning, and none of the proposed amendments affect zoning permissions on abutting lands, nor will the amendments impact other uses permitted on properties affected by the amendments.
