Community Council Decision

Etobicoke York Community Council deferred consideration of this Item to its September 12, 2011 meeting.

Origin

(April 20, 2011) Report from the Acting Director, Policy and Research, City Planning

Summary

This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the properties at 2669-2673 Lake Shore Boulevard West (Gardener’s Cottage, Fetherstonhaugh Estate) under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act.  At its meeting of February 16, 2011, the Etobicoke York Community Council deferred consideration of a report (January 27, 2011) from the Director and Deputy Chief Building Official on a demolition control application to its meeting of May 25, 2011, and requested Heritage Preservation Services to report at that time on the potential heritage value of the building. 

 

Following research and evaluation, staff have determined that the properties at 2669-2673, containing a gardener’s cottage associated with the former Fetherstonhaugh Estate, meet the criteria for municipal designation prescribed by the Province of Ontario for its cultural heritage value.  The designation of the properties would enable Council to refuse demolition, control alterations to the sites, and enforce heritage property standards.
