On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report proposes city-initiated zoning by-law amendments to facilitate the delivery of the Scarborough Subway Extension (SSE) project. The purpose of these amendments is to provide relief from certain zoning by-law provisions related to transportation uses for lands to be acquired by Metrolinx to accommodate SSE project elements. The zoning by-law amendments affect lands which will accommodate such structures as emergency exit buildings, traction power substations, stations including Lawrence East, Scarborough Centre and Sheppard East, as well as lands accommodating the tunnel extraction shaft at Eglinton Avenue East and Midland Avenue.

The amendments also include permissions for construction offices and trailers and a request to lift a Holding Provision (H) applying to the lands with municipal addresses 110, 120 and 140 Grangeway Ave (site of the future Scarborough Centre Station.) The amendments would apply to transportation uses only and are consistent with the City's zoning policies, and none of the proposed amendments reduce zoning permissions on abutting lands. Nor will the amendments impact other uses permitted on properties affected by the amendments. In 2019, the City undertook transit enabling zoning for the Line 2 East Subway Extension project. However, since that time, Metrolinx has made changes to scope of the project that now includes three proposed stations (Lawrence East, Scarborough Centre and Sheppard East) and additional project elements. This expanded scope is now known as SSE. The previous zoning by-law amendments are relevant and carried forward into the current SSE project. This report covers the newly identified project elements of the SSE. City Planning recommends that Council adopt the proposed zoning by-law amendments.

Staff recommended

The Director, Transit and Transportation Planning, City Planning recommends that: 1. City Council amend the City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013, as amended, and the former City of Scarborough Employment Districts Zoning By-law 24982, as amended, for the lands at 642, 685 to 697, 960, 1871, 1901, 1455/1457 McCowan Road; 20 Nugget Avenue; 2500, 2507 2510 and 2516 to 2532 Eglinton Avenue East; 3050, 3051, 3060 and 3091 Lawrence Avenue East; 23 Valparaiso Avenue; 110, 120 and 140 Grangeway Avenue; and 4700 Sheppard Avenue East substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendments in Attachments 1 and 2 to this report.
