This application proposes to amend the zoning by-law and the Official Plan to permit an 11-storey (36 metres excluding a 5.0 metre mechanical penthouse) mixed-use building with 201 residential units at 104 - 114 Finch Avenue East. A total of 138 vehicular parking spaces and 158 bicycle parking spaces, including 20 short-term spaces at grade is provided. The application proposes a total gross floor area of 12,751 square metres, including 438 square metres of retail gross floor area, resulting in an overall density of 5.72 times the lot area. Vehicular access to the subject site is proposed along Willowdale Avenue via a 6 metres wide, two-way driveway.

\r\n

 

\r\n

This report reviews and recommends approval of the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law with a Holding provision. The recommended zoning by-law amendment and Official Plan amendment are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2024). The zoning by-law amendment and Official Plan amendment also conform to the City's Official Plan, subject to addressing the issues that are the subject of the Holding (H) provision further described in this report.

\r\n

 

\r\n

The proposal conforms to the Official Plan, particularly as it relates to policies that support new housing supply through intensification within the Avenues and Mixed Use Areas designations. The development is transit-supportive and provides local economic opportunities and services through the addition of retail units at-grade.

\r\n

 

\r\n

The proposed mid-rise building aligns with the updated Mid-Rise Building Design Guidelines (2024) and is massed to fit within the existing context and mitigate impacts on adjacent neighbourhoods.

This report requests that North York Community Council deny the request for a permit to remove one privately owned tree located at 115 York Mills Road. The applicant indicates the reason for requesting removal of the tree is due to concerns that the tree's roots may cause structural damage to the foundation of the house, and that wildlife accessing the tree could cause potential damage to the roof.

The Norway spruce tree (Picea abies) measures 50 centimeters in diameter. The City's Tree By-laws do not support the removal of this tree as it is healthy and maintainable. The permit was denied, and the applicant is appealing the decision. Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision as to whether a permit may be issued when an applicant appeals the denial of a permit of a tree protected under the By-laws.

On February 4th, 2025, the City of Toronto was deeply saddened by the passing of Michael Mostyn, 50, after a courageous battle with cancer.

\r\n

 

\r\n

Michael was born into a family strongly rooted in Jewish values. This upbringing was key in his journey to become an admirable and vocal leader in the community. He earned his law degree at the University of Western Ontario in 1999, and began to practice with his father Alan at Mostyn & Mostyn. In 2006, he joined B’nai Brith Canada, an international human rights organization. Michael was recognized for his success and outstanding contributions to protecting civil rights and fighting antisemitism, earning a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2012. He then rose to the position of CEO in 2014. His work at B’nai Brith shaped and influenced the Government of Canada’s strategy in combating hate and defending human rights. Michael was successful in his efforts for provinces and cities to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism. He was also a regular voice for the Jewish community at Toronto City Hall, whether it be making deputations on important issues, joining at times of Jewish holidays, Israel flag raisings, or Holocaust remembrance. Michael was a source of inspiration to thousands of Torontonians and Canadians. His positive impact and advocacy for the Jewish and wider community will always be remembered.

\r\n

 

\r\n

Naming a suitable site after Michael Mostyn in York Centre would be a fitting tribute to a man who always fought for the rights others, and who made countless contributions to the City of Toronto. This would be sincerely appreciated by his family, friends, and colleagues, and would allow his legacy as a human rights champion to live on
