On the agenda

As the city filed it

This report recommends that City Council classify the development at 849 Eglinton Avenue East as a Class 4 Area under relevant provincial noise guidelines administered by the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MOECC). A Class 4 Area classification allows for higher daytime and nighttime sound level limits than would otherwise be permitted in relation to a noise sensitive land use such as residential dwellings and associated outdoor living areas.

The impact of such higher levels is mitigated by specified noise control measures. An Environmental Noise Analysis prepared in support of the development with the lands at 849 Eglinton Avenue East confirm that the development can be appropriately considered for a Class 4 Area classification. A Class 4 Area classification endorsed by City Council resolution would allow for existing industrial, manufacturing and transit operations close to the subject site, to use this noise classification and sound level limits in applications for required provincial approvals including operating certificates.
