Description

The Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment would facilitate redevelopment of a site that is designated as 'General Employment Areas' on Map 13 of the City of Toronto's Official Plan and zoned Employment Heavy Industrial (EH 1.0) and Industrial-Commercial (MC) under the former North York Zoning By-law 7625, where residential uses are not permitted. The proposal contemplates a new community consisting of nine (9) new mixed-use buildings ranging in height from 30 to 45 storeys. The proposal includes 4,456 residential dwelling units, 269,573 square metres of residential gross floor area (GFA), 1,604 square metres of retail GFA, and 9,134 square metres of residential amenity space. The proposal includes a new public street right-of-way with two new intersections located on Finch Avenue West and Milvan Drive. The proposal includes a new 3,267 square metre public park located on the northeast portion of the site, with frontage onto the new public street and the natural feature/natural hazard lands associated with Emery Creek.

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.
