Carma Developers Ltd., Lawrence Avenue East

The Scarborough Community Council recommends the adoption of the following report (February 9, 1999) from the Director of Community Planning, East District:

Purpose:

To extend a Part Lot Control By-law (By-law No. 236-1998) 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. 236-1998 for another 12 months; and

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

Comments:

Bayview-Wellington Homes (Port Union) Inc., on behalf of Carma Developers, is constructing 53rear-lane townhouses with detached rear yard garages on lands located on the southwest quadrant of Lawrence Avenue and Bridgeport Drive (Figure 1). The subject lots have been established through the registration of the subdivision. The lifting of Part Lot Control By-law 236-1998, 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.

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.
