On the agenda

As the city filed it

This staff report is about a matter for which Community Council has delegated authority to make a final decision, provided that it is not amended so that it varies with City policy or by-laws. Lifetime Developments is constructing a 29-storey condominium at 2360-2376 Yonge Street, on the southwest corner of Yonge Street and Helendale Avenue. They received approval from North York Community Council to occupy the south sidewalk and full roadway on Helendale Avenue, between Yonge Street and a point 27 metres west of Yonge Street, for a one-year period from July 5, 2018 to July 5, 2019.

Due to the relocation of staffing assignments, the requirements of this site were overlooked and it came to our attention that the end date that was approved by Council had passed. Lifetime Developments has been paying the monthly fees since July 5, 2019, in anticipation of a report being brought forward to Council to extend the duration of the construction staging area since it is still needed to construct the building safely. Transportation Services is requesting approval to extend the duration of the construction staging area on Helendale Avenue from December 4, 2019 to April 30, 2021 in order to complete construction.
