Huntingwood Frontage currently, per Streetview:

Victoria Park frontage:

Elevations:

Parking Ratio is 0.5

Comments: I'm mostly prepared to support this as gentle intensification. But I object to the west elevation/Victoria Park frontage.

I would like to see 2-3 townhomes front Victoria Park, putting a face, on the building on that side, and completely blocking the view of the surface parking from the street.

This could be done by re-oriented the townhomes at the western end of the property, as well as reducing surface parking by about 4 spaces.

Decision Report - Approval Recommended...........to the next meeting of SCC.

City Staff have altered the proposal, the report doesn't really provide clarity on whether the applicant is supportive; they've simply put forward a tweak version that suits the City.

From the report:

@Paclo is flagged.

I note, the above is a new thing w/the City and has appeared in multiple Approval Reports in this cycle.

It's a strategy to meet Bill 109 timelines - and it's not without precedent. Other municipalities have done it in the past (Burlington approved 409 Brant St at 18 storeys despite the application being for 23, for example)

I've had a discussion w/some folks this morning already and confirmed this is the 'new normal' in Toronto.

Quite the radical change.

We'll apparently being seeing this a lot.
