Part Lot Control Exemption Application SC-L19990005
Scarborough Bluffs Developments Limited
6150 Lawrence Avenue East, Centennial Community
Ward 16 - Scarborough Highland Creek
The Scarborough Community Council recommends the adoption of the following report (August 5, 1999) from the
Director of Community Planning, East District:
Purpose:
Scarborough Bluffs Developments Ltd. wishes to begin construction of the development located north of Lawrence
Avenue East just east of East Avenue. The development will consist of semi-detached dwellings and street townhouses.
This application seeks approval to lift Part-Lot Control for the 24 semi-detached and 51 street townhouse units, thereby
allowing the registration of easements for maintenance and minor encroachments.
Financial Implications:
None.
Recommendations:
It is recommended that City Council:
(1)enact a Part Lot Control Exemption By-law with respect to Blocks 121 to 123 inclusive on Registered Plan
66M-2129;
(2)deem that the Part Lot Control Exemption By-law shall expire one (1) year from the date of its passing; and
(3)authorize any unsubstantive, technical, stylistic or format changes to the exemption by-law as may be required to
give effect to this resolution.
Background:
The subject lands are designated Medium Density Residential (RM) in the Official Plan. The lands are zoned "Street
Townhouse Residential" (ST) permitting a maximum of 75 dwellings units on this site. The proposed lotting shown on
Figure 2 conforms to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. Section 50(7) of the Planning Act, 1990, authorizes Council to
adopt a by-law exempting lands within a required plan of subdivision from part lot control. Although the semi-detached
and street townhouse lots were established on individual parcels on the required plan, in some instances parts of roof
structures such as eaves and soffits from one unit will encroach upon the adjacent parcel. Easements are also necessary to
allow access for maintenance purposes between adjacent buildings.
Conclusions:
The lifting of Part Lot Control on the subject lands will facilitate the implementation of easements and encroachments
allowing for the development to proceed as endorsed by the former Scarborough Council.
