Origin

(May 11, 2026) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Scarborough District

Summary

This Report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit three blocks of four-storey stacked and back-to-back townhouse units for the site municipally known as 5, 7, 9 and 11 Bellamy Road South (the "Site").

 

The development would contain a total of 110 residential units with a total residential gross floor area of 14,100 square metres, resulting in a density of 1.85 times the area of the Site. A total of 3 two-bedroom units, 60 three-bedroom units and 47 four-bedroom units are proposed. The proposed development would be supported by a total of 108 vehicular parking spaces, as well as 84 bicycle parking spaces.

 

The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024), and conforms to the City’s Official Plan. It provides residential intensification on lots that vary from the local development pattern with a form proportionate to what is permitted by zoning for adjacent residential properties while benefitting from frequent bus service along Kingston Road and a nearby GO station.

 

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit the proposed development.
