Description

City Planning has received a request for a temporary use zoning by-law that would allow for an outdoor patio to be located in a Toronto Parking Authority (TPA) surface parking lot at 592 Gerrard Street East. There are no existing city uses or activities within the proposed patio area, with an existing bike share station along the frontage of the lot to remain. The report recommends permitting a temporary patio on the TPA lot at 592 Gerrard St. E., with the City authorized to enter into licence arrangements with restaurants in the vicinity to establish an open dining area on the site.

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.
