Origin
Summary
This report is further to the May 30, 2014 report from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District recommending approval of the proposed Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment for 455 Dovercourt Road.
The owner has agreed to provide the necessary documentation to demonstrate that a long-term lease agreement has been secured for 4 non-residential parking spaces on a parking lot within 300 metres of the subject site, to the satisfaction of Transportation Services, prior to issuance of a building permit. This change has been reflected through an amendment to Recommendation No. 4 of the May 30, 2014 report.
This report provides draft zoning by-laws attached as Attachment 1 and 2. The residential gross floor area and non-residential gross floor area in the attached Draft Zoning By-laws varies from the gross floor areas noted in the May 30, 2014 report as they have been calculated based on detailed calculations included in Zoning By-laws 438-86 and 569-2013.
