The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on April 1, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit an 11-storey mixed-use rental building at 3286, 3290, 3296, 3298, 3300, 3308 and 3316 Dundas Street West. The application proposes a total of 191 residential units (including 6 rental replacement units) with a residential gross floor area of 12,937 square metres and 384 square metres of non-residential gross floor area. 99 vehicular and 212 bicycle parking spaces are also proposed.

A Rental Housing Demolition application has also been received by the City to address rental replacement obligations for the six existing rental units on site in conjunction with the Zoning By-law amendment application. A Rental Housing Demolition report will be considered in conjunction with this report at the April 1, 2026, Toronto and East York Community Council meeting. The proposal includes the demolition of six rental housing units, to be replaced by a total of six rental units as part of the new development of the site. A Tenant Assistance Plan is proposed that addresses the right of existing tenants to return to replacement rental units at similar rents and provides financial compensation to mitigate hardship.

The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024) and conforms to the City's Official Plan. The proposed development will provide diversity of unit types, retail ground floor use along Dundas Street West and an improved public realm.
