On the agenda

As the city filed it

This application proposes to amend Map 21-3 of the Yonge-Eglinton Secondary Plan (Official Plan Amendment 405) to remove the lands from the Secondary Zone of the Transit Nodes and add them instead to the Station Area Core. By doing so, this will help to facilitate a proposal for a 46-storey (148.6 metres, plus 8 metres mechanical penthouse for a total of 156.6 metres) residential building with 28,576 square metres of residential gross floor area representing 419 residential units, and 384 square metres of ground floor retail fronting onto Bayview Avenue, as the Station Area Core is intended to provide for more intensified development than the Secondary Zone.

The development proposes a total gross floor area of 28,960 square metres with a floor space index of 20.5. This report recommends refusal of the amendment as it would facilitate a greater level of intensification than what has been envisioned through the Plan's policies and through the identification of specific transit nodes, which has area specific considerations.
