Origin

(June 16, 2025) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Etobicoke York District

Summary

This report recommends approval of a Zoning By-law Amendment application to permit the development of six detached dwellings and six semi-detached dwellings on a vacant former public school site that is located within an established neighbourhood. The six detached dwellings would front onto Wallasey Avenue in the south. The six semi-detached dwellings would front onto a new 16.5 metre wide public street which would run north from Wallasey Avenue and terminate in a cul-de-sac. The associated Draft Plan of Subdivision application would create 12 lots for new residential development and one block for the new public street.

 

The proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision meets the subdivision requirements in Section 51(24) of the Planning Act, is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2024).
