On the agenda

As the city filed it

In response to the March 10, 2021 Council request, this report comments on the feasibility of deferring the payment of development charges as long as the proposed development at 425 Cherry is maintained and operated as a non-profit Indigenous health care centre. The City currently imposes development charges based upon a bylaw that was approved by Council on April 18, 2018. In the case of Anishnawbe Health Toronto, there is a proposal to construct a new four storey medical office building at 425 Cherry Street.

Development charges are anticipated to total $624,243.36 and are being requested to be deferred. Development charges for this project are normally due and payable at the issuance of a building permit. While it is feasible to provide a deferral through a section 27 agreement, staff recommend that Council refer this request to the comprehensive bylaw review currently underway. This report seeks authority to enter into an agreement to defer payment until that review has been completed and where Council may see it fit to provide an exemption of the charges. This report has been prepared in consultation with the City Planning, Legal Services, and Toronto Building.
