On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report recommends approval of the application to exempt 2161 Yonge Street from the Part Lot Control provisions of the Planning Act. This application facilitates any required minor realignments of the property boundary lines within the non-residential portion of this proposed 38-storey mixed-use development site. The lifting of Part Lot Control is appropriate for the orderly development of these lands. The Part Lot Control Exemption application implements the site-specific Zoning By-law.
