Origin
Summary
The applications propose to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law as well as a Plan of Subdivision to facilitate a three building development, including a 40-storey residential mixed-use building (total of 129.02 metres), a 21-storey residential building (total of 74.55 metres), a 6-storey office building (total of 31.82 metres), as well as a new private road and privately owned publicly accessible space at 849 Eglinton Avenue East. There are also two road widenings on both the east and west sides of the property to complete two new north / south public streets connecting Eglinton Avenue East to Vanderhoof Avenue.
On July 18, 2024, the applicant appealed the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment and Subdivision applications to the Ontario Land Tribunal due to Council not making a decision within the time frame prescribed in the Planning Act. A case management conference has not yet been scheduled.
This report recommends that the City Solicitor with the appropriate City staff attend the Ontario Land Tribunal hearing and oppose the applications in their current form and to continue discussions with the applicant to resolve outstanding issues.
