The proposed development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2020) and conforms with A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2020). The development of the proposed institutional building will create a landmark building as part of the development of the University's North Campus as provided for by the Official Plan and the draft UTSC Secondary Plan. Most significantly, the development provides a needed training facility for physicians and health care professionals that can connect to local health care institutions in Scarborough and the eastern Greater Toronto Area. This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.
