Community Council Recommendations

1. City Council request the Director, Community Planning, North York District, to undertake a study for Bayview Avenue, from Highway 401 to Lawrence Avenue East, to review the appropriate development framework for the lots abutting Bayview Avenue.
Origin
Summary
I have been working with residents and senior city planning staff to address the serious intensification and development pressure facing Bayview Avenue.
Two recent Ontario Municipal Board decisions at 2425 Bayview Avenue and 2500 Bayview Avenue have changed the area's planning context and require a proactive response.
At a public meeting in early November, a clear majority of residents voted to undertake a design guidelines study for Bayview Avenue between Lawrence Avenue East and Highway 401.
The purpose of the study is to develop a framework to use in evaluating applications for townhouses along this stretch of Bayview with particular attention to setbacks, landscaping, privacy and adjoining land uses, among other things.
