Origin
Summary
This Report recommends approval of the application to exempt the lands from the Part Lot Control provisions of the Planning Act for the lands municipally known as 28-32 Evergreen Gardens to permit the creation of conveyable lots for five townhouse units.
This application will facilitate the creation of five Parcels of Tied Land (POTLs) for the proposed townhouse units (Parts 2-6), and also Part 1 for a road conveyance to widen the Bayview Avenue right-of-way and Part 7 for a shared swale which extends along the entire width at the rear of the property as shown on Attachment 3.
A related Common Elements Condominium application (File No. 25 115684 NNY 15 CD) has been submitted to create a common element condominium corporation for the shared swale which extends along the entire width at the rear of the property referenced as Part 7 on Attachment 3.
The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024) and conforms to the Official Plan. The lifting of Part Lot Control is appropriate for the orderly development of these lands.
