Decision Advice and Other Information

The Etobicoke York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on June 4, 2025 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

Origin

(May 30, 2025) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Etobicoke York District

Summary

This report recommends approval of an application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a mixed-use development consisting of ten mixed-use buildings ranging in height from 18 to 46 storeys (60 to 145 metres), and two 7-storey non-residential buildings (30 metres each). The proposal includes a total of 4,077 dwelling units, including affordable housing units in accordance with Site and Area Specific Policy 432, and a minimum of 2,893 square metres of non-residential gross floor area. The two 7-storey buildings are within the General Employment Areas, and proposed employment uses are in conformity with the Official Plan. Additional summaries are provided as follows:

 

- Three new public streets are proposed, and are designed to be complete streets, accommodating all modes of transportation.

 

- Two phases of development are proposed, with Phase 1 including buildings C1, R1, R2, R3, R4, R10, the north enhanced landscape area, and Public Street A. Phase 2 would include buildings C2, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, an enhanced landscape area at the central portion of the site, and Public Streets B and C.  

 

- The phasing takes into consideration the desire to maintain the Cineplex on the site for as long as possible. To support the continued operation of the Cineplex, a minimum amount of surface parking spaces will be maintained.

 

- The sequencing of the overall development is proposed through 8 holding symbols, with an intent to commence the development in a clockwise direction, such that Public Road C and the buildings to the south, at the location of the existing Cineplex, would be in the last sequence of development in Phase 2.

 

- A 929-square-metre child care facility with an associated outdoor space of 344 square metres will be secured as an in-kind community benefit. Prior to the issuance of each of the above grade permits for the first, third and fifth buildings, 20 percent each of the cost of the child care facility shall be secured in the form of letters of credit provided to the City, with the amount adjusted in accordance with the most recent annual change in the Statistics Canada quarterly Consumer Price Index. Prior to the issuance of the above grade permit for the 10th building, the child care facility shall be fully constructed.

 

- A 4,265-square-metre central public park and two enhanced landscape areas at the north and central portions of the site are proposed. Prior to the issuance of the above grade permit for the first building, an interim park within the north enhanced landscape area, with an area of 1,710 square metres, would be conveyed to the City. The first half of the permanent park (2,133 square metres) at the central portion of the site would be conveyed prior to the above grade permit of the fourth building. The second half of the permanent park would be conveyed prior to the issuance of the above grade permit for the 8th building. Conveyance of the interim and permanent parks would be independent of the phasing described below.

 

A Draft Plan of Subdivision application has been submitted to create the necessary blocks to support the proposed development (File No. 24 153246 WET 03 SB). A separate report on the Draft Plan of Subdivision (Attachment 10) is planned for a later date.
