The application proposes to increase the permitted height and density from the approved heights of 35 and 37- storeys as per By-law 1263-2022 (Ontario Land Tribunal), to 46 and 58-storeys.

A total of 1,206 residential units are proposed, including 553 units in the west tower and 653 in the east tower.

Vehicular and loading access to the development continues to be proposed from the future east-west private laneway along the north boundary of the site, connecting Henning Avenue and Duplex Avenue. Three (3) levels of underground parking are proposed, containing a total of 156 residential parking spaces and 14 visitor parking spaces. The revised buildings maintain the setbacks, stepbacks, commercial uses, and heritage retention of the previous approval. This report reviews and recommends refusal of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law because the outstanding issues could not be resolved within the legislated timeline for a decision of 120 days. Staff will continue discussions with the applicant in order to resolve outstanding issues.
