PROPOSAL
The Planning and Building Services Department received an application for a Zoning By-law Amendment for lands located at 37 Ontario Street and 3 Ontario Lane. The Application was declared complete as of November 1, 2024, pursuant to 34 (10.4) of the Planning Act.
The Applicant is seeking to amend the Zoning By-law to permit the construction of a 33-storey (109 metre) mixed use building containing commercial space, office space, and 308 residential units.
The City’s Official Plan designates the subject lands Downtown on Schedule D1 and further designates the lands as Commercial Core on Schedule E10.
The City’s Zoning By-law designates 37 Ontario as Downtown Traditional Main Street with Special Provision 92 (C6-92) in the City’s Zoning By-law. 3 Ontario Lane is designated Local Convenience Commercial with Special Provision 93 (C1-93). The Applicant is proposing to rezone the entirety of the subject lands to Downtown Traditional Main Street with a new Special Provision to establish a number of site-specific zoning provisions to facilitate the proposed building.
