All 3 items in the clerk’s order. Each carries the city’s own words: the staff recommendation, what the body decided, and its status. Nothing below is written by us.
PB14.1adopted
Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 582 King Street West
This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the listed heritage property that contains significant built heritage resources at 582 King Street West (including the entrance addresses at 590 and 592 King Street West and 471 and 473 Adelaide Street West), formerly known as the Canadian Kodak Building, under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. The property at 582 King Street West extends from the north side of King Street West to the south side of Adelaide Street West in the block east of Portland Street. It is a building complex containing an original collection of two four-storey factory-type buildings at 582-592 King Street West and one four-storey factory-type building and two-storey wing at 473 Adelaide Street West - all constructed between 1902 and 1911 by the Canadian Kodak Company Ltd. A single-storey garage constructed c.1928-1931 was added by Ontario Silknit Ltd. The property was listed on the City's Heritage Register in 2005 and identified as contributing in the King-Spadina Heritage Conservation District, adopted by City Council in 2017 and currently under appeal. Following city staff's additional research and evaluation under Ontario Regulation 9/06, the provincial criteria prescribed for municipal designation, it has been determined that the property at 582 King Street West merits designation under Part IV Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act for its design, associative and contextual value. The property is currently subject to an application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a mixed-use development with retail and commercial uses. The application has been appealed to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT). The designation of the property at 582 King Street West would identify all of the property's cultural heritage values and heritage attributes which shall be conserved. Designation enables City Council to review applications to the site, enforce heritage property standards and maintenance and refuse demolition.
The Toronto Preservation Board recommends to the Toronto and East York Community Council that: 1. City Council state its intention to designate the property at 582 King Street West under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, in accordance with the Statement of Significance: 582 King Street West (Reasons for Designation) attached as Attachment 3 to the report (February 6, 2020) from the Senior Manager, Heritage Preservation Services. 2. If there are no objections to the designation, City Council authorize the City Solicitor to introduce the bill in Council designating the property under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act. 3. If there are objections in accordance with the Ontario Heritage Act, City Council direct the City Clerk to refer the designation to the Conservation Review Board. 4. If the designation is referred to the Conservation Review Board, City Council authorize the City Solicitor and appropriate staff to attend any hearing held by the Conservation Review Board in support of Council's decision to designate the property.
