Origin
Summary
This report proposes a modification to the Official Plan to settle the site specific appeal of the Toronto Official Plan by 56 Sandringham Drive Inc. (the "Appellant") respecting 56-58 Sandringham Drive (the "Site").
On September 14, 2004 the Ontario Municipal Board (the "OMB") granted Party status to the former owner of the Site for a site specific appeal of the Toronto Official Plan. The current owner of the Site, 56 Sandringham Drive Inc. has maintained the appeal before the Board.
On March 26, 2010, the Appellant submitted an application for a minor variance to the zoning by-law to permit a proposed two storey addition to the existing dwelling on the Site. The Committee of Adjustment approved the requested minor variances on June 23, 2010; this decision is final and binding. The Appellant has submitted a related application for site plan control that is currently under review by Community Planning staff.
Given the approved minor variances to Zoning By-Law No. 7625 respecting the Site, staff are proposing a modification to the Official Plan to settle the appeal of the Toronto Official Plan.
