Ontario Municipal Board -

Committee of Adjustment Decision - 120 Heath

Street West and Portions of 120 Heath Street West

and Nos. 56 and 58 Oriole Rod (High Park)

The Toronto Community Council recommends that the City Solicitor and the Acting Commissioner of Urban Planning and Development Services be authorized to attend the Ontario Municipal Board hearing on August 5, 1999, to uphold the Committee of Adjustment decision refusing a minor zoning variance application at 120 Heath Street West, portions of 120 Heath Street West and 56 and 58 Oriole Road.

The Toronto Community Council submits the following communication (June 12, 1999) from Councillor Adams:

Purpose:To Authorize the City Solicitor and the Chief City Planner to represent the City in upholding the Zoning By-law at the Ontario Municipal Board in opposition to the applicant's appeal of the Committee of Adjustment Decision refusing a minor variance application at the above noted address.

Financial Implication:Not applicable

Recommendation:That the City Solicitor and the Chief City Planner be authorized to attend the Ontario Municipal Board hearing on August 5, 1999, to uphold the Committee of Adjustment decision refusing a minor zoning variance application at these addresses.

Background:The applicant proposes to: sever the rear portion of the lots to create a new lot; create a right-of-way over a portion of the property in favour of 120 Heath Street West; construct a two-storey house located at the rear of 58 Oriole Road; and maintain three dwelling units on the lot of 120 Heath Street West, including a dwelling unit in the basement, on a reduced lot. This application is opposed by the Urban Planning and Development Department, and the Deer Park Ratepayers Group Inc. In its decisions, the Committee of Adjustment note that the applications represent overdevelopment, as they do not meet the four tests of the Planning Act.

--------

(A copy of the Notice of Decision dated April 22, 1999 from the Manager, Committee of Adjustment respecting 120 Heath Street West, referred to in the foregoing report was forwarded to all Members of the Toronto Community Council with the agenda for its meeting on July 15, 1999, and a copy thereof is on file in the office of the City Clerk):
