Terms of Reference: Upcoming Changes

Updates have be made to the Avenue Segment Review Study Terms of Reference.

Terms of Reference Application Support Materials are periodically updated to ensure application requirements are current and reflect changes in legislation, technical requirements and evolving best practices. This page provides notice of these upcoming changes and their effective date.

As of March 14, 2025, Official Plan Amendment 778 is substantively in force and effect, removing the Avenue Segment Review from Schedule 3 of the Official Plan. Accordingly, the Avenue Segment Review Terms of Reference has been removed as a requirement of complete application.

For applications that are subject to a site-specific appeal of OPA 778—whether submitted before, on, or after March 14, 2025—the former Avenues policies continue to apply unless the appeal is withdrawn by the appellant and confirmed with the City Solicitor and the Tribunal. In these cases, the former Avenue Segment Review Terms of Reference remain applicable.
