Decision Advice and Other Information

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on January 10, 2012, and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

Origin

(December 13, 2011) Report from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District

Summary

An application was made in November 2010 which proposed to construct an 8-storey mixed-use building containing 95 residential dwelling units and retail uses at grade at 854, 856 and 858 Dundas Street West.  The site at 217 and 219 Manning Avenue, was proposed to be developed with 8 townhouses fronting onto the public laneway that runs east-west between Manning Avenue and Euclid Avenue.

 

Since the time of original application, and after consultation with the community, the Ward Councillor, and City Divisions, the applicant has revised their application to a 7-storey mixed use building containing 82 residential dwelling units and retail space at grade at 854, 856 and 858 Dundas Street West.  The site at 217 and 219 Manning Avenue, is now proposed to be developed with 10 townhouses, five of which will front onto Manning Avenue, with the remaining five fronting onto the existing public laneway that runs in a north south direction, between Manning Avenue and Euclid Avenue.

 

This report reviews and recommends approval of a draft Zoning By-law Amendment including modifications to the current proposal as described in this report.
