Origin
Summary
This report provides information and identifies a preliminary set of issues regarding the Zoning By-law Amendment application for a 24-storey residential building, containing 170 dwelling units.
The application has been circulated to all appropriate City divisions and public agencies for comment. City Planning staff will proceed to schedule a Community Consultation Meeting for the application, in consultation with the Ward Councillor.
Staff do not support this proposal as currently submitted. Substantial revisions are required. The existing site is too small for the proposed tower because it cannot provide adequate side and rear setbacks as per the Tall Building Guidelines. To advance the application, appropriate tower setbacks and separation distances will need to be achieved or secured.
