PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF
OFFICIAL PLAN AMENDMENT 758

AND ZONING BY-LAW 580-2025
 

The purpose and effect of Official Plan Amendment 758 is to redesignate 18 properties, each with a detached dwelling, from Neighbourhoods to Apartment Neighbourhoods to facilitate a more intense form of development. Official Plan Amendment 758 would also redesignate the southeast corner of the development block as Parks and Other Open Spaces – Parks, in recognition of the on-site parkland dedication secured through the development review process, and Natural Areas for the sensitive areas within the Natural Heritage System.

The purpose and effect of Zoning By-law 580-2025 is to introduce regulations and performance standards to permit the intensification of the site with three new 22-storey residential apartment buildings. In total, the proposal would deliver 947 new residential units. The new residential units would be supported by a new park, positive public realm interventions, and amenity spaces. The Holding Provision recommended in Zoning By-law 582-2025 is intended to confirm the acceptability of the proposed storm sewer and watermain improvements through updates to the Functional Servicing Report, and subsequently enter into a financially secured Municipal Infrastructure Agreement to construct the storm sewer and watermain.
