37 Wilket Road - Representation at Toronto Local Appeal Body Appeal Hearing - by Councillor Jaye Robinson, seconded by Councillor Mike Colle

The applicant proposes to sever the Subject Property, which is a through-lot that has a backyard on Bayview Avenue, into two undersized residential lots. The new parcel created from the severance would front onto Bayview Avenue. The applications require variances to City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013 for the lot frontage of the retained lot. The Notice of Decision of the Committee of Adjustment is attached. This motion will authorize the City Solicitor to oppose the Committee of Adjustment's approval of the applications and support the Toronto Local Appeal Body appeal, as well as to secure the necessary authorization and resources to support the City's opposition to the appeal, including providing for the ability for the City Solicitor to settle the matter. This motion is urgent because the file has already been appealed to the Toronto Local Appeal Body.

3. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to attempt to negotiate a resolution of the appeal, and if a resolution is reached, to settle the appeal at the City Solicitor's discretion, and in consultation with the Ward Councillor and the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning.
