This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. The Official Plan Amendment will ensure the Site and Area Specific Policies will authorize the employment uses and ensure that such uses are compatible with the physical context and will not affect nearby Neighbourhoods in a manner contrary to the neighbourhood protection policies of the Official Plan, and that the proposed uses do not adversely impact adjacent residential districts. Currently, the site is regulated by former City of Toronto Zoning By-law 438-86, as amended. Introducing the site into City of Toronto Zoning By-law 569-2013 will ensure the property is regulated by the most current Zoning By-law while expanding the range of permitted office, retail, and service uses to improve access to locally servicing employment uses for the area. The proposed zoning by-law amendments also carry forward some use permissions from the current Industrial (I1 D2) zoning, while removing uses which are incompatible with the surrounding residential context.
