Origin

(April 11, 2025) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District

Summary

This report recommends City Council approve a City-initiated Zoning By-law Amendment which revises the Former City of Scarborough Zoning By-law 12466 (L’Amoreaux Community), as amended by Site Specific Zoning By-law 1022-2014, to re-allocate unspent Section 37 funds secured through the approval of the townhouse development at 1152 Bridletowne Circle.

 

The development permitted by By-law 1022-2014 is fully constructed and occupied. The proposed amendment would allow the re-allocation of $250,000 secured through a Section 37 Agreement by the applicable site-specific zoning. The funds were intended to go towards the construction of the 1.5 metre pedestrian walkway between Timberbank Boulevard and the existing bridge over the channelized watercourse (Highland Creek - Bendale Branch). If approved, the recommended Zoning By-law Amendment would permit the funds to be applied towards general park improvements within proximity of the subject lands. No new development permissions are contemplated on the subject lands through the proposed the amendment.
