On June 20, 2021 the applicant submitted a revised proposal to permit the redevelopment of the lands with three residential and mixed-use buildings with heights of 55, 59 and 65 storeys. The proposal includes a total of 2,500 dwelling units, 1,791 square metres of retail space, hotel and a daycare centre. The proposal has an overall proposed density of 12.4 times the area of the lot. On July 30, 2021, the Applicant appealed the revised Zoning By-law Amendment application to the Ontario Land Tribunal ("OLT") due to Council not making a decision within the 120-day time frame in the Planning Act (OLT Case No: OLT-21-001257). This report recommends that the City Solicitor with the appropriate City staff attend the OLT hearing to oppose the application in its current form and to continue discussions with the Applicant to resolve outstanding issues.
