PROPOSAL

This City-Initiated Zoning By-law Amendment proposes revisions to the L’Amoreaux Community Zoning By-law 12466, as amended by Site Specific Zoning By-law 1022-2014, in order to reallocate unspent Section 37 funds. The in-force zoning and associated Section 37 agreement, approved in 2014, does not include a reallocation clause for unspent monies. 

It is proposed to amend the Section 37 provision, secured to allow for the potential reallocation of unspent Section 37 funds. The unspent monies, secured through a Municipal Infrastructure Agreement, in the amount of $250,000 is currently allocated towards the re-construction of the 1.5 metre public pedestrian walkway between Timberbank Boulevard and the existing bridge over the channelized watercourse (Highland Creek - Bendale Branch, and are proposed to be re-allocated towards for other capital facility improvements within Ward 22 Scarborough-Agincourt.

Additionally, amendments to the site-specific zoning by-law listed above would include the same reallocation authority as found in other site-specific zoning by-laws enacted after 2013, to authorize reallocation of unspent funds at the discretion of the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning in consultation with the Ward Councillor.

No new development is proposed to the existing buildings at the above listed addresses as a result of these amendments.

Detailed information regarding the proposal, including background information and material may be obtained by contacting Jacob Naidoo, Assistant Planner at 416-338-6666, or by e-mail at Jacob.Naidoo@toronto.ca.
