in support of Part C.9.140 of the Official Plan, which is the Specific Policy from
Official Plan Amendment No. 381 regarding 88 to 102 Ellerslie Avenue.
During his submission, Mr. Diamond indicated that since the adoption of the
Specific Development Policy, his client has reduced the scale of the proposed
development on Ellerslie Avenue from 66 units to 47 units and would include a 1.1
ha public park on the lands municipally known as 76 Ellerslie. He also pointed
out that the development would be of condominium rather than freehold tenure.
Access to the development would be provided from Beecroft Road and as such there
would be no traffic impact on the community.
Mr. Diamond requested that Community Council maintain its previous commitment
given for this proposal. In his opinion the site is uniquely buffered to the west
by a large parking lot, and is located adjacent to the City Centre and adjacent
to parkland to the south. He also pointed out that redevelopment of the property
will contribute a functional section of the Uptown Service Road in this location.
Mr. Diamond was also of the opinion that the proposed townhouse from of
development provides for an appropriate transition of density from the existing
high density development in the North York Centre to the stable low residential
neighbourhood to the west. It would also supplement the public parkland
complement in the area.
In concluding he suggested that the Community Council hear the concerns of the
ratepayers and allow the public meeting on the rezoning application to proceed
prior to the Ontario Municipal hearing on this issue.
- Mr. D. Gregory Flude, who expressed his concerns with the current process. Since
the original Specific Development Policy and the current rezoning application are
scheduled to be heard by the Ontario Municipal Board in the near future, it is
unnecessary, in his opinion, to amend the Official Plan at this point in time.
He further indicated that the Specific Development Policy was the result of
extensive deliberations by the City of North York Council in and before 1993 when
all parties had the opportunity to make their views known and to have them fully
canvassed. To seek to question the action of the City of North York council after
such a short time period, where there has been no material change in circumstances
is likely to bring the whole planning process into disrepute.
Mr. Flude further indicated that the Specific Development Policy makes good
planning sense when the unique circumstances of these properties are considered.
At present the Uptown boundary is a fence. It make no sense to establish a fence
as the boundary when a natural boundary has been defined by the existence of
Edward the Confessor Church which severs the block, cutting the east side from the
west side. Feathering density trough a single family residential development doe
snot materially change the nature of the land use in the area while ensuring that
no one property bears the impact of a sudden change in density. In his opinion,
removing the Specific Development Policy would destabilize the residential area.
- Ms. Ronda Margolese, who indicated that she supported the deletion of the Specific
Policy from Official Plan Amendment No. 381 regarding 88 to 102 Ellerslie Avenue.
In her opinion, the development proposed for those lands would have a negative
impact on the surrounding community.
- Mr. Robert Weeks, who spoke in opposition to the development proposed for the
lands on Ellerslie Avenue. In his opinion, the proposal is not in conformity with
the Uptown Plan, is inappropriate and it would destabilize the area. He
concluded by requesting that the boundary in the Uptown Plan not be changed in
order to accommodate this development.
- Ms. Carol Gold, who spoke in opposition to the rezoning application for 88 to 102
Ellerslie Avenue. In her opinion, the proposal is precedent setting and goes
against everything that the Downtown and Uptown Plans stand for. While she would
have not objection to the lands being developed with infill housing, she did
object to the proposed development.
- Ms. Sharolyn Vettese, on behalf of Yonge Street Area Ratepayers Associations, who
spoke in opposition to the Specific Policy in Official Plan No. 381 regarding 88
to 102 Ellerslie Avenue. In her opinion, this Policy should be deleted from the
Plan because it goes against everything that the residents have been working for
in order to maintain a stable residential area. Throughout the evolution of the
North York Centre Secondary Plan, being the Downtown and Uptown Plans, there have
been two guiding principles. One being the protection of the stable residential
neighbourhood adjacent to the redevelopment area and the other being the principle
of ensuring that redevelopment did not take place outside the City Centre
boundary. The Specific Policy for 88 to 102 Ellerslie is an anomaly to the City s
established practice and policy.
Ms. Vettese requested that the Plan be adhered prior to matter being considered by
the Ontario Municipal Board. The Plan should be protected otherwise it would
encourage ad hoc development which in turn creates instability.
- Mr. Steve Mullins, President, Lansing Community Association, who informed the
Community Council that a motion was passed at the general meeting held by the
Lansing Community Association. that the Specific Policy regarding 88 to 102
Ellerslie Avenue be removed from the Plan. The Association also had concerns with
the rezoning application for these lands.
- Ms. Amy Profenna, who spoke in opposition to the development proposed for the
lands on Ellerslie Avenue. Her primary objections were respect to increased
traffic, the impact on property values and quality of life. She also believed
that a natural buffer zone was needed between the high rise development in the
City Centre and the existing residential area.
- Mrs. Anne Galilee, who spoke in opposition to the Specific Policy regarding 88 to
102 Ellerslie Avenue. She was concerned about the precedent setting nature of
the development proposed for these lands and enlarging the boundary of the Uptown
Plan.
- Mr. John Windisman. who spoke in opposition to the Specific Policy regarding 88 to
102 Ellerslie Avenue. He was also concerned with the density of the townhouse
development proposed for these lands.
- Mr. Donald Gray, who expressed concern with the precedent setting nature of the
development proposed for the lands on Ellerslie Avenue. In his opinion, there is
nothing unique about the lands in question to warrant deviation from the Official
Plan. He also believed that if the lands municipally known as 78 Ellerslie Avenue
are not part of the land assembly, the requirement for the ring road cannot be
satisfied.
- Ms. Marion Lick, on behalf of the Willowdale Central Ratepayers Association; who
spoke in opposition to the Specific Development Policy for 88 to 102 Ellerslie
Avenue. She also explained the importance of preserving the stable residential
communities and the tress throughout the Uptown and Downtown Plan areas.
- Mr. William Bevelander, who spoke in opposition to the Specific Development Policy
for 88 to 102 Ellerslie Avenue. He also indicated that he objected to suggestions
made by the Solicitor for the property owner of the lands in question because
there is no mention of the human factor. He concluded by stating that the stable
residential area be maintained.
- Mr. Morry Smith, on behalf of the Lansing Community Association, who indicated
that he would like to see the City and staff supporting the position of the
residents. He was also concerned about the precedent setting nature of this
proposal. In concluding he indicated that he supported the protection of the
stable residential area.
- Ms. Mary Ann Cross, who spoke in opposition to the Specific Development Policy for
88 to 102 Ellerslie Avenue and requested that it be deleted from the Plan. She
further indicated that she moved in this area to raise her family because of its
quiet residential character. As such, she would be opposed to any redevelopment
in the area
- Ms. Mary Ann Cross also read a communication from Marilyn Bunker outlining Ms
Bunker s concerns with the Specific Development Policy relating to 88 to 102
Ellerslie Avenue.
- Ms. Flude, who spoke outlined her reasons for supporting the Specific Development
Policy relating to the lands on Ellerslie Avenue.
- Ms. Neela Adamski, who spoke in opposition to the Specific Development Policy.
She also stated many of the residents who moved into this area because of its
stable residential character would eventually move elsewhere as a result of the
negative impacts from redevelopment.
- Ms. Viva Heaton, who spoke in opposition to the proposed development on Ellerslie
Avenue. Her primary concerns were with respect to increased traffic and precedent
setting nature of the application.

As directed by the North York Community Council at its meeting held on June 24, 1998,
appropriate notice of this public meeting was given in accordance with the Planning Act
and the regulations thereunder.
The North York Community Council had before it the following:
(i) report (June 11, 1998) from the Acting Commissioner of Planning, providing
recommendations with respect to the subject application; and
(ii) communication (September 2, 1998) signed by 9 property owners on Kirby Road,
requesting that Kirby Road be rezoned to R5.
No individuals appeared before the North York Community Council in connection with the
foregoing matter.
On motion by Councillor Mammoliti, North York Humber, the North York Community
Council recommended to Council that the lands fronting on the south side of Kirby

Commissioner of Planning, North York Civic Centre, be rezoned from RM5 to R5.

ROAD - DON PARKWAY.
As directed by the North York Community Council at its meeting held on April 1, 1998,
appropriate notice of this public meeting was given in accordance with the Planning Act
and the regulations thereunder.
The North York Community Council had before it the following:
(i) report (August 6, 1998) from the Acting Commissioner of Planning, North York Civic
Centre, providing recommendations with respect to the subject application; and
(ii) communication (September 1, 1998) from Mr. Derek E. Kaye, on behalf of the owners
of Don Mills Car Wash, advising of their concerns with the proposed application.
Ms. Linda Kaye, on behalf of the owners of Don Mills Car Wash, appeared before the North
York Community Council in connection with the foregoing matter and she outlined her
concerns with the application. During her submission she indicated that gasoline station
sites are known for soil contamination and possible migration of contaminants onto
adjacent sites. Since there is no requirement for an environmental study or a soil
investigation report until the site plan approval stage, there is no indication whether
the site can be developed for the uses contemplated by the applicant. She accordingly
requested that the Community Council consider the soils study prior to any rezoning
approval because the ultimate development of this site could have a negative impact on
adjacent lands in terms of future redevelopment.
On motion by Councillor Minnan-Wong, Don Parkway, the North York Community Council
recommended to Council that the report (August 6, 1998) from the Acting
Commissioner of Planning, North York Civic Centre, be adopted and the application
UDOZ-98-02 - John Waldie, be approved as set out in that report.

to the subject application.
A staff presentation was made by Randy Jones, Planner, City Planning Division, North
District.
The following persons appeared before the North York Community Council in connection with
the foregoing matter:
- Mr. George Belza, on behalf of the property owners of Carney Road and other
property owners in the area. During his submission he stated that the residents
generally concur with the recommendations in the staff report but had some
specific concerns with those recommendations dealing with the parkland, the gross
floor area, parking and the RM1 provisions of Lot Area, Street Frontage, Lot
Coverage, Floor Area and Distance between buildings. With respect to
Recommendation 1 (d), the residents would like the park to be built by the City
and the existing dwellings demolished. The park should also be a passive park.
With respect to Recommendation 2 (c)(i) and (ii) and Recommendation 2(d), the
figures should be corrected to reflect the figures in the Draft Zoning By-law.
Insofar as Recommendation 2 (h) was concerned, he was of the opinion that it
should be expanded to include a statement that planning staff be directed to meet
with the residents in order to resolve these issues during the site plan review
stage. Such matters as screening and drainage are site plan issues which have not
been evaluated and should also be discussed at a community meeting prior to the
enactment of the by-law. He also requested that construction access be off Finch
Avenue.
- Ms. Elaine Berg, who expressed concern with the traffic congestion in the area.
- Mr. John Hofbauer, who expressed concern with the boundary of the Central Finch
West Secondary Plan being adjusted in order to accommodate this development.
- Mr. William Missios, who expressed concern with the proposed development.
- Ms. Nancy Singer, Planning Consultant, on behalf of the applicant, who commented
on the merits of the application. She also indicated that a number of discussions
have been held with planning and other city staff in order to address their
concerns as well as those expressed by the community. However, the applicant
would be willing to meet with the community once again in order to discuss the
issues raised, prior to the enactment of the amending by-law. Screening and
privacy are site plan issues and would be addressed during the site plan review
stage.
A. Councillor Gardner, North York Centre, moved that the report (June 10, 1998) from
the Acting Commissioner of Planning, North York Civic Centre, be adopted; and that
application UDOZ-97-11 - The Park Avenues of North York, be approved as set out in
the foregoing report.
B. Councillor Filion, North York Centre, moved that the report (June 10, 1998) from
the Acting Commissioner of Planning, North York Civic Centre, be adopted subject
to the following additional conditions and requests:
(1) construction access to the development being from Finch Avenue West;
(2) the parkland be constructed as soon as possible; and

As directed by the North York Community Council at its meeting held on July 22, 1998,
appropriate notice of this public meeting was given in accordance with the Planning Act
and the regulations thereunder.

the subject application.
The North York Community Council also had before it the following communications:

Association, outlining the Association s concerns with respect to the traffic
situation in the Cummer/Drewry/Yonge Street area; and
(vi) (undated) from Joe Martin, outlining his support for the proposal.
A staff presentation was made by Karen Whitney, Planner, City Planning Division, North
District.
The following persons appeared before the North York Community Council in connection with
the foregoing matter:
- Mr. Dominic Campione, who commented in opposition to the application. His primary
concerns were with respect to increased traffic congestion and basement flooding
in the area.
- Mr. Joseph Porco, who outlined his concerns with the proposal and in particular,
the traffic congestion on Drewry Avenue. In his opinion, the traffic congestion
in the area should be assessed and measures should be taken to alleviate the
situation.
- Mr. Frank Reiss, on behalf of the applicant, who addressed the concerns raised.
During his submission he indicated that a traffic impact study has been conducted
by a transportation consultant, which study concludes that the development would
generate a small amount of traffic with minimal impact to the surrounding roadway
network. After reviewing this study, the Transportation Division has indicated
that it concurs with this finding. Insofar as drainage was concerned, he
indicated that drainage will be directed in such a manner to ensure that no
drainage problems are created on adjacent lands. In addition, the new dwellings
would be connected to the storm sewer and not the sanitary sewer as is the case
with many of the dwellings in the area and which may be causing the flooding
problems.
Mr. Reiss concluded by stating that he concurred with the recommendations outlined
in the staff report.
- Mr. Goldthorpe, who spoke in opposition to the application. His primary
objections were respect to drainage; increased traffic and density.
- Mr. Glen Rowatt, on behalf of the property owner of 65 Drewry Avenue, who spoke
in support of the application. In his opinion, the proposed development conforms
with the Uptown Plan and it enhances the area.
On motion by Councillor Gardner, North York Centre, the North York Community
Council recommended to Council that:

District, be adopted and that applications UDZ-97-43 and UDSB-1237 - 295151
