Subject: STREET NAMING
Formula Homes Inc.
South side of The East Mall between Valhalla Inn Road and Gibbs Road
File No: S-779 and Z-2220 (Ward No. 4 - Markland Centennial)
1. PURPOSE:
To name a street within a new subdivision.
2. FUNDING SOURCES, FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS AND IMPACT STATEMENT:
There are no funding sources or financial implications.
3. RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Solicitor for Etobicoke be instructed to draft a by-law designating "Formula Court" as the new street name for the proposed road allowance, upon registration of the plan of subdivision.
4. BACKGROUND
On June 17, 1997, Etobicoke Council approved an application for Official Plan and Zoning Code amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision approval to permit Medium Density Residential development (townhouses and semis) on the lands located on the south side of The East Mall between Valhalla Inn Road and Gibbs Road.
Site Specific By-law No. 1997-156 was enacted by Etobicoke Council on August 15, 1997, draft plan of subdivision 55T-97004 was approved by the Metro Commissioner of Planning on September 4, 1997, and Official Plan Amendment No. 47-97 subsequently received Ministerial approval on September 22, 1997.
5. COMMENT
The proposed road allowance will intersect with The East Mall at the easterly end of the subject site and terminate within the subdivision in a cul-de-sac. The road allowance will be dedicated to the City and each of the 20 townhouses and 4 semi-detached units will front onto the proposed public roadway (see Exhibit No. 1).
The applicant has requested that the subject road allowance be named "Formula Court". The name has been found to be acceptable to the former Metropolitan Toronto Planning Department who is responsible for administering the Metro Street Name Index.
