Origin

(December 15, 2015) Report from the Director, Community Planning, North York District

Summary

This application proposes to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-laws to permit 6 townhouse units fronting onto York Mills Road and a detached dwelling fronting onto Kirtling Place. The existing detached dwelling would be demolished. Vehicular access would be taken from Kirtling Place.

 

The proposed townhouse built form is not in keeping with the policies of the Official Plan and is inappropriate for the site. As such, staff are recommending that the applications be refused.
