On the agenda

As the city filed it

This application proposes an addition to the existing 4-storey, 44 bed residential care home (Alzheimer and dementia care) at the southeast corner of Bathurst Street and Kenton Drive, and would add 29 beds for a total of 73 bed-sitting rooms. The construction of the 4-storey addition would be at the east end of the existing building and would then step down from 4-storeys to 2-storeys at the east portion of the property along Kenton Drive.

The proposal includes an expansion from 12 to 15 surface parking spaces located at the south side of the property while maintaining the existing driveway access directly from Bathurst Street. The total gross floor area of the development is 3,459 square metres resulting in an overall floor space index (FSI) of 1.61 times the lot area. The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020) and the Official Plan. The proposal represents an appropriate infill development that expands housing choices on a major street with access to public transit. This report reviews and recommends approval of the application as the proposal represents good planning. The proposed expansion represents a compatible land use within Neighbourhoods and the proposed built form provides appropriate transitions to the adjacent low-rise residential neighbourhood.
