The purpose of this motion is to request City Council amend its previous decision on Item TE19.9 to add recommendations to facilitate the delegated payment-in-lieu of bike parking program process, including associated revisions to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment. On February 5, 2025, City Council adopted as amended the Zoning By-law Amendment for the lands municipally known as 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue.

As part of Council's decision, recommendation 1 directed that the draft zoning by-law be revised to increase the maximum building height to 41 storeys, along with associated performance standard changes including overall building height, number of units, unit breakdown and gross floor area, and a revised Schedule A to the Zoning By-law Amendment to include the community benefits and legal conveniences. The Bill was withheld pending the applicant entering into an agreement under Section 37(3) of the Planning Act, as it read the day before Section 1 of Schedule 17 to the COVID-19 Economic Recovery Act, 2020 came into force, to secure affordable housing and rental housing commitments, Council's approval of the associated rental housing demolition application, and resolution of servicing matters. The draft Zoning By-law Amendment has been revised in accordance with Council's direction. The applicant has requested a revision to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment to facilitate the delegated payment-in-lieu of bike parking program process. This process is delegated to staff for sites within City-wide By-law 569-2013, however the zoning for this site remains subject to the former East York Zoning By-law so additional recommendations are required to enable the delegated process in this instance. Reason for Urgency: This matter is urgent and time sensitive as the revisions directed by City Council include affordable housing obligations in Schedule A of the zoning by-law, and the updates to cash in lieu of bike parking requirements will allow for expedited implementation.

Staff recommended

Councillor Brad Bradford, seconded by Councillor James Pasternak, recommends that: 1.

City Council amend former East York Zoning By-law 6752 and Zoning By-law 958-2020 (LPAT) for the lands municipally known as 90 Eastdale Avenue and 2 Secord Avenue substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment included as Attachment 1.
