Committee Recommendations
The Planning and Growth Management Committee recommends that:
1. City Council extend the monitoring period to the end of 2014 to allow staff to complete consultations on the effectiveness of the Mid-Rise Building Performance Standards, and direct the Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning, to report to the Planning and Growth Management Committee at the conclusion of the monitoring period regarding any modifications to the Performance Standards.
Origin
Summary
In July 2010, Council directed staff to use the Mid-Rise Building Performance Standards in the evaluation of mid-rise development proposals. Council also adopted a monitoring period of approximately 2 years in order to measure the effectiveness of the Standards. City Planning is well underway in this monitoring of the Performance Standards, however further work including inter-Divisional consultation, consultation with stakeholders, and the general public is necessary to complete a comprehensive review. This report requests Council extend the monitoring period to provide time to conduct this consultation. Staff will report back with results of the monitoring period by the end of 2014.
