The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 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 a 15 storey mixed-use building (including the mechanical penthouse and amenity space at the uppermost storey) at 2273, 2277 and 2279 Bloor Street West. The proposed building includes 60 residential units and retail at grade. The total gross floor area of the proposed building is 5,545 square metres of which 116 square metres is for retail use. The proposed development includes a 0.4 metre right-of-way widening along the Bloor Street West frontage.

The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024), conforms to the City's Official Plan, and represents appropriate intensification that is compatible with the existing and planned context within a Protected Major Transit Station Area (PMTSA).
