In accordance with the delegated approval under By-law 1112-2024, as amended, City Council be advised that the Executive Director, Development Review or their designate the Director of Community Planning, North York, intends to approve the Draft Plan of Subdivision for 3377 Bayview Avenue as generally illustrated in Attachment 3 to the report (March 17, 2025) from the Director, Community Planning, North York District, subject to:

a. the conditions as generally listed in Attachment 5 to the report (March 17, 2025) from the Director, Community Planning, North York District, which, except as otherwise noted, must be fulfilled prior to final approval and the release of the Plan of Subdivision for registration;

b. resolution of outstanding matters arising from the technical review of the application, as set out in this report, to the satisfaction of the City; and,

c. any such revisions to the proposed subdivision plan or any such additional or modified conditions as the Executive Director, Development Review or their designate, the Director of Community Planning, North York may deem to be appropriate to address matters arising from the on-going technical review of this development.

The draft plan of subdivision application proposes to create a total of 10 blocks which includes six residential development blocks, two park blocks, one green space natural heritage block, and one block which will be retained by Tyndale University. The green space natural heritage block will have an area of 13.764 hectares. The proposal includes a new public road that will loop through the subject site and will have a width of 18.5 metres. The new public road will extend eastwards into the subject site from Bayview Avenue, where the existing northern driveway is located, loop through the site and reconnect to Bayview Avenue in the south at Benham Crescent. The centre most block will be retained by Tyndale University and the university will continue to operate as a university on the subject site.

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024). The proposed development also conforms to the City's Official Plan and Zoning by-law (to be issued by the Ontario Land Tribunal) and has regard for the criteria in Section 51(24) of the Planning Act, subject to addressing outstanding matters from the ongoing technical review of the application. The Draft Plan of Subdivision creates necessary blocks and infrastructure to support the implementation of the Official Plan Amendment / Zoning By-law Amendment development via an Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) decision.

This report advises that the Executive Director of Development Review or their delegate, the Director of Community Planning - North York intends to approve the draft plan of subdivision, subject to conditions as set out below, after outstanding matters arising from the technical review of the application, as set out in this report, have been addressed.
