Technical Amendment to By-law 569-2013 Regarding 2740 Lawrence Avenue East - by Councillor Michael Thompson, seconded by Councillor Gary Crawford

At that time City Council also directed that the Owner enter into an Agreement with the City pursuant to Section 37 of the Planning Act before the necessary Bill was presented to City Council. Said Agreement was executed on April 1, 2022 and registered on title April 4, 2022, with the result that amending By-law 315-2022 was then introduced and enacted by City Council on April 7, 2022. It has now been determined that a slightly older draft of the proposed by-law amendment was inadvertently submitted City Council for enactment which did not accurately reflect all the development standards set out in the final Draft By-law attached to the Planning staff report as approved. In addition, through continued refinement of associated draft plan of subdivision and site plan applications for the new development over the past year, it has also been determined that one development standard relating to permitted building heights (i.e. number of storeys as determined by established grade) would also benefit from additional wording to provide greater clarity. The built form of the development has not changed. The By-law revisions required are technical in nature to correctly reflect City Council's July 2021 decision, will facilitate By-law interpretation, and would not establish any new or increased development rights. Accordingly, it would be appropriate for City Council to approve a technical amendment correcting the Zoning By-law without the added necessity for further public notice.
