Adam Szymczak (author) – Senior Planner presents application.
Member Gyemi asks what is the reasoning to restrict front yard parking. Mr. Szymczak answers that the Zoning By-Law prohibits front yard parking for multiple dwellings with more than four dwelling units.
Councillor Morrison asks who is responsible for the alley. Mr. Szymczak states that the alley will be dealt with through Site Plan Control.
Member Moore asks if the front yard parking is allowed. Mr. Szymczak states that the majority of the parking is at the rear of the building
Councillor Bortollin asks aside from parking are there other issues we look at with density targets. Mr. Hunt states that we do not have any thresholds on denisty and we rely on the Zoning By-Laws. In Ontario, there is no legislation that allows us to control the number of bedrooms in the units.
