Description
Zoning By Law Amendment and concurrent Draft Plan of Subdvision applications to create 13 blocks within the William Baker Neighbourhood. Planned as new inclusive, compact and complete community that is walkable and well served by transit and active transportation. The Neighbourhood is intended to be developed over phases with a broad range and mix of uses, built forms, densities, housing and unit types and tenures (including affordable and seniors options), all supported by an existing higher order transit and existing and planned community services and facilities. The District Plan for the William Baker Neighbourhood includes development blocks at the south end proposed for a mix of high/mid and low-rise residential as well as mixed use blocks at the intersection of Keele Street and Sheppard Avenue, to create a Neighbourhood Focus at that gateway to the community featuring commercial uses and parks, in a location well served by transit. Building heights in this area are proposed to range from 4 to 20 storeys. Residential blocks proposed in the north portion, which will be developed through subsequent phases, provide for similar heights in the range of 4 to 20 storeys, with potential for some taller elements near the Downsview Park subway/GO station hub. Of great importance to the future of the Neighbourhood is preservation and enhancement of the woodlot. It will be a central feature of the new community and further enhanced with additional parkland being added around its edges as contemplated by the Secondary Plan. Additionally, a park at the southern end of the Neighbourhood is proposed to feature a new pedestrian/cycling bridge that will provide a convenient link to Downsview Park to the south.

Comparison with similar applications
Lobbied applications are compared only with unlobbied applications of the same type, in the same ward, submitted in the same year and of the same size band (units or floor area from the description; sub-type for Committee of Adjustment files). Unlobbied applications are weighted to match the lobbied group. Raw lobbied versus unlobbied averages are not reported.

Submission to the first decision status seen in our daily loads (measured from launch). Approval and refusal rates are among applications with a recorded decision.
Large and complex applications attract both lobbying and longer reviews, and matching cannot remove every difference between applications, so a difference does not show that lobbying changed how an application was reviewed.
Lobbyists choose whom to contact, so a difference does not show a change of mind.
