On the agenda

As the city filed it

The applicant applied to the Committee of Adjustment (Application A0888/18TEY) (the "Application") to construct a new two-storey detached dwelling with integral garage at 26 Carey Road. The Application requests variances with respect to floor space index, maximum building height, and vehicle entrance through the front main wall. At its hearing on April 17, 2019, the Committee of Adjustment refused the Application (the "Decision").

The Notice of Decision is attached. The applicant has appealed the Decision to the Toronto Local Appeal Body. This Motion will authorize the City Solicitor, and appropriate City Staff or outside consultants, to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body in order to oppose the proposed minor variances requested in the Application. This Motion will also give the City Solicitor authority to negotiate a settlement of the appeal and retain outside consultants, as necessary. This matter is time sensitive and urgent as the Decision has been appealed and the City Solicitor requires instructions to attend the hearing in opposition of the proposal.
