Part Lot Control Exemption Application SPL98001

Intracorp Developments (Rouge Hill) Limited

Lawrence Avenue/Port Union Road

Port Union Village Community

Ward 16 - Scarborough Highland Creek

The Scarborough Community Council recommends the adoption of the following report (February 3, 1999) from the Director of Community Planning, East District:

Purpose:

To extend a Part Lot Control By-law (By-law No. 235-1998) for a further twelve months.

Recommendations:

It is recommended that City Council:

(1)enact a By-law to extend the effect of By-law No. 235-1998 for another 12 months; and

(2)direct appropriate staff to introduce the necessary bill to give effect thereto.

Comments:

Intracorp Developments (Rouge Hill) Ltd. is constructing 159 townhouse and semi-detached units on lands located on the south side of Lawrence Avenue, east of Port Union Road (Figure 1). The subject lots have been established through the registration of the subdivision. The lifting of Part Lot Control (By-law 235-1998 attached) allows the registration of easements for maintenance and encroachment of overhangs. The necessary reference plans are approved by the District Director and registered on title.

Approvals have already been granted for 65 townhouses and construction is proceeding. We anticipate more units being built. It is in the City's interest to ensure satisfactory completion of this development and the requested one year extension is appropriate.

Conclusion:

The extension of the lifting of Part Lot Control on the subject lands will facilitate the implementation of a highly desirable development already endorsed by Council.
