Committee Decision

The Planning and Housing Committee received the report (December 28, 2023) from the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning for information.

Origin

(December 28, 2023) Report from the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning

Summary

Section 103-8.7 D. of the City of Toronto Municipal Code requires the Chief Planner to prepare a report for information to City Council on the properties included in the Heritage Register in 2023 as listed properties through the delegated authority of the Chief Planner. This report also reviews the performance and process of administering the delegated authority of including properties in the Heritage Register.

 

In 2023, six properties on three development sites were listed in the Heritage Register using the Chief Planner's delegated authority. One property municipally known as 409 Huron Street has been designated under Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act (OHA). The remaining five properties identified below have not yet been designated under the Ontario Heritage Act:

 

6-8 Cawthra Square

10-12 Cawthra Square

100 Borough Drive

 

The delegated authority to list properties in the Heritage Register has successfully contributed to the City's timely response to development applications, and has ensured that Council is not precluded from considering whether a property merits designation under section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act.
