Summary

This report provides supplementary information on the revised development proposal submitted by the applicant in May 2009, as directed by Etobicoke York Community Council on February 9, 2009 and May 14, 2009.

 

Staff has reviewed the revised applications and find that the built form of the proposal now generally conforms with the applicable Official Plan policies for Apartment Neighbourhoods, Built Form and Healthy Neighbourhoods. However, staff continue to have concerns with the applicant’s rental replacement proposal and continue to recommend refusal as it does not conform with the Official Plan Housing policies.

13a 2800 Bloor Street West – Zoning By-law Amendment and Rental Housing Demolition and Conversion Applications – Refusal Report
Statutory - City of Toronto Act, 2006
Origin
(January 22, 2009) Report from Director, Community Planning, Etobicoke York District
Summary

The application was made on July 24, 2007, and is subject to the new provisions of the Planning Act and the City of Toronto Act, 2006.

 

This report reviews and recommends refusal of a rezoning application in its current form to permit a building that will be primarily used as a retirement residence for seniors. The proposed building will contain a total of ninety-two rooms to be rented to senior citizens. In addition, 10 rental units targeted for seniors are proposed in the new building to replace the 10 rental units to be demolished in the existing building on the site at 2800 Bloor Street West. This report also reviews and recommends refusal of the Rental Housing Demolition and Conversion application associated with the rezoning application.

 

The proposal in its current form does not promote a harmonious fit with the existing neighbourhood context and is not consistent with the relevant Official Plan Policies. The Rental Housing Demolition and Conversion application also does not conform to the relevant Official Plan policies.
