2683 Lawrence Avenue East - Zoning Amendment - Decision Report - Approval

It would be supported by a total of 249 vehicular parking spaces (219 resident spaces and 30 commercial spaces) as well as 208 bicycle parking spaces. The proposal features a multi-use linear landscaped mid- block connection from Lawrence Avenue East to the Hydro Corridor in the south, (known as 'The Meadoway' lands). 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 proposal represents more efficient use of the lands while contributing to the range and mix of residential types in the area through intensification in a compact built form. The intensification of the site with the proposed mixed use building is appropriate given that it addresses the relevant development criteria for Mixed Use Areas, adequately addresses Avenues policies as well as other relevant policy directions. The redevelopment appropriately intensifies an underutilized site, fits with the existing and planned context, and provides enhancements to the public realm. This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law.
