This application proposes to redevelop the lands at 1443, 1445 and 1451 Bathurst Street for a new 25-storey mixed-use building with a 6-storey podium, containing 324 dwelling units, including 7 rental replacement units, and 283 parking spaces in a below grade parking structure, 42 of which will be operated by the Toronto Parking Authority.  A Site Plan application and a Rental Housing Demolition and Conversion application, under Section 111 of the City of Toronto Act, were also submitted.

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

The next step is to undertake a community consultation meeting, to enable the public to review and provide input on the application and ask questions of City staff and the applicant. This meeting is targeted to occur within the first quarter of 2012. 

This target date assumes the applicant will provide all required information in a timely manner.
