Subject:Request for Exemption from Part Lot Control
Zanini Developments
4185 Dundas Street West
(Kingsway-Humber)
Purpose:
To review a request for exemption from Part Lot Control.
Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
City funding is not required. There are no impacts on capital or operating budgets.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the request for exemption from part lot control be approved and that
staff be authorized to forward the draft bill to City Council for adoption.
Background:
In June, 1998, the property located on the south side of Dundas Street, east of Prince Edward
Drive, was rezoned, under By-law 328-1998, from General Commercial (CG) and Second
Density Residential (R2) to Group Area Fourth Density Residential (R4G) to permit the
development of 36 freehold townhouse units on a private road. The proposal has received
delegated site plan approval and applications have been received for building permits.
Proposal:
The applicant is requesting exemption from part lot control in order to create separate parcels
for the townhouse units. Exhibits Nos. 1 and 2. are copies of a location plan and site plan.
Comment:
The project has been reviewed during the rezoning and site plan control approval processes.
Financial securities are required to be posted prior to the issuance of building permits to
ensure completion in accordance with the approved plans. The lifting of part lot control is
requested in order to permit the sale of the individual units.
The staff in Community Planning, the Fire Department, Building Standards and City Works
Services have reviewed the application and have no concerns with the requested exemption.
Urban Development staff are satisfied that sufficient public notice for the project was given in
connection with the application for rezoning and that further public notice is not warranted.
Conclusion:
An exemption from part lot control for the project is considered appropriate for the orderly
development of the land.
