Description

The Zoning By-law Amendment proposes the development of Phase 1, incorporating the lands fronting on Finch Avenue West. Six new buildings are proposed, with tower heights ranging from 50 to 27 storeys. In total, Phase 1 proposes to deliver 2,730 new residential units, consisting of 186 studio units (6.8% of total units), 1,439 one-bedroom units (52.7%), 821 two-bedroom units (30.1%) and 284 three-bedroom units (10.4%). A total of 5,667.6 square metres of non-residential gross floor area is proposed, including 4,703 square metres of retail, approximately 465 square metres of indoor community space, and a 500-square metre day care centre. During Phase 1, most of the Jane Finch Mall is proposed to be retained, with approximately 2,500 square metres proposed to be demolished.

Linked lobbying registrations

These links are inferred by lobbyTO from file numbers and addresses named in the registration (task L2); the registry does not record which application a registration concerns.

Links between records are inferred by a model and are not reviewed by a person. Each link shows its score out of 1; moderate-confidence links (0.7 to 0.9) are wrong more often than high-confidence links. How links are scored

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.
