STAFF REPORT
December 7, 1999
To: Scarborough Community Council
From: Ted Tyndorf
Director of Community Planning, East District
Subject: Part Lot Control Exemption Application SC-L1999007
1342713 Ontario Limited
3609 Kingston Road
Block B and Part of Block C, Registered Plan 4235
Scarborough Village Community
Scarborough Bluffs
Purpose:
Peter Pitino is proposing to construct a residential development consisting of one single-family dwelling (Part 17), two
semi-detached dwellings (Parts 13-16) and eleven street townhouse dwellings (Parts 1-11) at the south-west corner of
Kingston Road and Brinloor Boulevard (Figure 2). This application requests lifting Part Lot Control on the land to permit
the creation of sixteen separate residential lots and one parcel to be dedicated to the City for corner rounding (Part 12).
Recommendation:
It is recommended that:
(1) City Council enact a Part Lot Control Exemption By-law with respect to Block B and Part of Block C, Registered Plan
4235;
(2) the Part Lot Control Exemption By-law be repealed one (1) year from the date of the passing of the By-law;
(3) all conveyances which occur after the exemption from Part Lot Control shall be in accordance with Reference Plan(s) to
be approved by the Director of Community Planning East District, prior to the plan(s) being deposited in the Land Registry
Office; and
(4) City Council 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 land is designated Medium Density Residential (RM) in the Official Plan and is zoned Multiple-Family Residential
(M), permitting single-family, semi-detached and street townhouse dwellings. The proposed lotting on Figure 2 conforms
to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.
Comments:
Section 50(7) of the Planning Act, 1990, authorizes the lifting of Part Lot Control on lots or blocks within a registered plan.
This method of land division allows lot lines to be finalized during or after construction and is advantageous, especially for
street townhouses, because it avoids the potential problem of party walls of dwelling units not coinciding exactly with lot
lines.
The preparation of reference plans for the proposed lot divisions, reviewed by the Director of Community Planning prior to
registration on title, will ensure municipal monitoring and control and will ensure that the deposited plans reflect Councils
approval. There are no Official Plan or Zoning concerns raised by this application.
The application was circulated to reporting Departments and Agencies. No comments or concerns have been raised.
Conclusions:
The lifting of Part Lot Control on the subject lands will facilitate the finalization of a successful residential development
previously endorsed by the Toronto City Council.
