Item - 2024.SC16.5

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013, as amended, for the lands 4206, 4608 and 4212 Kingston Road substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment attached as Attachment 5 to the report (September 2, 2024) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough 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.

The Scarborough Community Council held a statutory public meeting on September 19, 2024, and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This application proposes to amend the Zoning By-law to permit the construction of a 12-storey (36 metres) mixed use building and a 7-storey (21.85 metre) residential building at 4206, 4608 and 4212 Kingston Road. The proposal consists of 271 residential dwelling units and approximately 246 square metres of non-residential gross floor area, with a total gross floor area of approximately 20,741 square metres.

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 proposed development also conforms to the City’s Official Plan.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law. The proposed buildings represent an appropriate mix of land uses on the site, contained in a built form that respects the existing and planned context, encouraging a comfortable and attractive pedestrian environment on Kingston Road.
