Summary

This application proposes a mixed-use, mid-rise development at 462 Eastern Avenue on the site of the existing Weston Bakery.  The proposal includes a 7-storey building  and a three-storey townhouse building with a total of 266 residential units and retail uses at grade.  

 

This report provides preliminary information on the above-noted applications and seeks Community Council's directions on further processing of the applications and on the community consultation process.

 

The proponent has also submitted Official Plan Amendment and rezoning applications for the Weston Bakery site located across the street at 459 Eastern Avenue, which is the subject of a separate preliminary report.

 

Staff recommend that a community consultation meeting be held in the area upon completion of the Five Year and Municipal Comprehensive Reviews, addressing both the subject application and the application for 459 Eastern Avenue.  The meeting will provide an opportunity to the public to review the application and to provide input and feedback on the proposal.
