Item - 2026.SC30.2

The Scarborough Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend By-law 1201-2024 to extend the Part Lot Control Exemption for the lands municipally known as 2740 Lawrence Avenue East for an additional two year period from the date of the enactment of the By-law, substantially in accordance with the draft Part Lot Control Exemption By-law in Attachment 3 to the report (March 13, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Part Lot Control Exemption By-law as may be required.

3. Prior to the enactment of the Amending Part Lot Control Exemption By-law, City Council require the owner to provide proof of payment of all current property taxes for the subject lands to the satisfaction of the City Solicitor.

4. City Council authorize and direct the City Solicitor to register the Part Lot Control Exemption By-law on title to the lands municipally known as 2740 Lawrence Avenue East.

On November 14, 2024, City Council adopted the Part Lot Control Exemption Application Decision Report (2024.SC17.4) and enacted the associated Part Lot Control Exemption By-law (By-law 1201-2024) for the development located at 2740 Lawrence Avenue East. The intent of the Part Lot Control Exemption Application and associated by-law were to facilitate the creation and conveyance of 65 three-storey townhouse units with maintenance easements for the development within Blocks 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 and 45 on Plan 66M-2589. The plan of subdivision including a public street was registered on April 11, 2023. The enacted By-law contained an expiry period of two years after enactment, a time period which the current application proposes to extend.

This Report recommends approval of the application to permit the exemption from Part Lot Control to be extended for an additional two years to facilitate completion of the development and to implement the necessary land transactions.
