Summary
The purpose of the application is to facilitate the redevelopment of the lands for a mix of land uses in four (4) phases. The development is proposing two (2), seven-storey apartment buildings containing a total of 312 dwelling units, a seven-storey seniors apartment building containing 128 units, a seven-storey hotel containing 180 suites, a marina containing 73 boat slips and a 264 sq. m. utility building, and a surface parking area containing 339 stalls.
In 2002, a Holding provision was placed on the lands via By-law No. 2002-014, to require that site remediation in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Protection Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. E. 19 and regulations thereunder be completed prior to the development of the lands.
The effect of the application is to remove the Holding provision from a portion of the subject lands and adjacent City-owned lands to the west (ARN 425901000507820) and south (ARN 425901000507206) that are subject to a Record of Site Condition (RSC) filed with the Ministry of Environment, Conservation, and Parks in 2008 (Registration No. 45250).
The existing spit and a 30 m wide strip of land adjacent to the waterfront zoned as ‘Hazard Zone’ (ZH) by the City’s Zoning By-law (2010-078, as amended) are not subject to the RSC therefore, the Holding (H) provision is not proposed to be removed from this portion of the lands.
The application does not propose any other changes to the existing site zoning.
