This staff report concerns a matter for which the North York Community Council has delegated authority from City Council to make a final decision.
\r\n\r\n
The purpose of this report is to advise Community Council concerning an application by the property owner of 499 Briar Hill Avenue for a site-specific Fence Exemption, pursuant to Section 447-1.5(B) of Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 447 - Fences. The property owner is seeking Community Council’s permission to maintain the follow:
\r\n\r\n
1. A gate on the second story deck in the rear of the property that will not comply with the standards stipulated by Section 447-1.3(D)(1). This gate is made from tempered glass and measured at 1.06 metres in height.
\r\n\r\n
2. An enclosure from the walkout basement that will not comply with the standards stipulated by section 447-1.3 (E) (1) (b). This enclosure is not located more than one metre away to any external condition that may facilitate climbing.
\r\n\r\n
A Notice of Violation was issued to the property owners on December 6, 2024. The property owner has implemented alternative safety measures, including an enclosure constructed from marine-grade mesh vinyl material. This enclosure, measuring 1.2 metres in height, surrounds the east and south sides of the pool. Additionally, a pool cover, made from heavy-duty vinyl composite, has been installed, covering an area of 26.7 square meters. However, both measures do not comply with the requirements outlined in the Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 447 - Fences.

The total gross floor area of both buildings would be 3,784 square metres, resulting in a density of 3.45 times the combined area of the lots. The 11-storey building fronting onto Sheppard Avenue West has a gross floor area of 2,783 square metres, resulting in a density of 5 times the lot area.
\r\n\r\n
The buildings are connected through a one level of below-grade parking, providing 15 parking spaces, including 6 visitor spaces. Shared driveway access to the site is proposed from Senlac Road, leading to two at-grade pick-up and drop-off spaces located at rear of the 11-storey building.
\r\n\r\n
Staff are of the opinion that the proposed scale and massing of the 11-storey building is inappropriate for the subject site, and represents an overdevelopment of the site that is not appropriate for the local context and does not implement the vision for the Sheppard Avenue West corridor in the Sheppard Lansing area. Staff are of the opinion that the proposed development is not consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024). The proposed development does not represent good planning and fails to conform to the City's Official Plan and does not meet the intent of key performance standards recommended by the Mid-rise Building Design Guidelines.

\r\n\r\n
b. The owner has at its sole cost and expense:

\r\n\r\n
B. The required new municipal infrastructure or upgrades to existing municipal infrastructure to support the development in the accepted and satisfactory Engineering Reports in 2.b.2.A above are constructed and operational, all to the satisfaction to the Chief Engineer and Executive Director, Engineering and Construction Services;
\r\n\r\n
3. Ensured that implementation of the accepted Engineering Reports does not require changes to the proposed amending By-law or that any required changes have been made to the proposed amending By-law to the satisfaction of the Executive Director, Development Review and the City Solicitor, including the use of a Holding (\"H\") By-law symbol regarding any new municipal servicing infrastructure or upgrades to existing municipal servicing infrastructure, as may be required; and
\r\n\r\n
4. Submitted an updated Transportation Impact Study or Addendum, and updated Parking and Loading Study or Addendum, to reflect revisions to site circulation, loading, parking and access for the development, to the satisfaction of the General Manager, Transportation Services.
\r\n\r\n
3. City Council authorize the City Solicitor and City staff to take any necessary steps to implement City Council's decision, including requesting any additional conditions of approval that would be in the City's interest, in the event an appeal of Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment applications are allowed by the Ontario Land Tribunal, in whole or in part.

On May 20, 2025, Staff submitted a report to North York Community Council titled 234 Sheppard Avenue West and 223 Harlandale Avenue - Zoning By-law Amendment, Official Plan Amendment - Decision Report - Refusal (“the report”) which recommends that Council refuse the application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.

\r\n\r\n
The subject property at 36 Green Valley Road is located in the Bridle Path-Sunnybrook-York Mills neighbourhood on the east side of Green Valley Road where it terminates at the northern boundary of the Rosedale Golf Club. It contains a one-storey detached, Mid-Century Modern house-form building. A location map and current photograph of the heritage property are found in Attachment 2.
\r\n\r\n
The property at 36 Green Valley Road was constructed in 1960 as the family home of Rosalie Wise Sharp and Isadore Sharp, the founder of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. The house was designed by prominent architect Peter Dickinson, whose portfolio includes Meridian Hall, formerly the O’Keefe Centre (1 Front Street East), 111 Richmond Street, The Benvenuto Apartments (1 Benvenuto Place), and the Queen Elizabeth Building at the Canadian National Exhibition (2 Strachan Avenue), which are designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. Peter Dickinson also designed the Four Seasons Motor Hotel (415 Jarvis Street) and the Inn on the Park (both demolished) that launched Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. The property at 36 Green Valley Road is the only surviving house designed by Peter Dickinson in Toronto.
\r\n\r\n
The property has been researched and evaluated by staff using the criteria prescribed in Ontario Regulation 9/06 and meets one or more of the provincial criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest and is believed to be of cultural heritage value or interest that merits inclusion on the City’s Heritage Register.

The Act now also limits listing to a period of two years.
\r\n\r\n
As of January 1, 2023, should a property be subject to an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and / or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application, properties must be listed on the heritage register prior to Part IV designation and before the occurrence of a prescribed event. A prescribed event is a point of time when the application for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment and / or Draft Plan of Subdivision Application has been deemed complete and the City Clerk provides notice of that complete application to the public in accordance with the Planning Act.
\r\n\r\n
The listing of non-designated properties on the municipal heritage register under the Act also extends interim protection from demolition and provides an opportunity for City Council to determine whether the property warrants conservation through designation under the Act should a development or demolition application be submitted.

The purpose of this report is to conclude the Lawrence Park Transportation Plan, a study intended to inform the detailed design phase and implementation phases of the Lawrence Park Neighbourhood Investigation of Basement Flooding (Area 20) and Road Improvement Class Environmental Assessment (EA); make interim road improvements in advance of the Environmental Assessment implementation; and make road improvements that are independent of the Environmental Assessment implementation.
\r\n\r\n
The Lawrence Park Transportation Plan was initiated in response to a request of North York Community Council in 2019. Since that time the City has established the Neighbourhood Streets Plan program to manage requests of this nature. Full details about the program are available at www.toronto.ca/neighbourhoodstreetsplans.
\r\n\r\n
Proposed changes include the installation of traffic calming measures, intersection realignments, and raised crosswalks. Intersection modifications and raised crosswalks will be advanced by the Environmental Assessment implementation project. Subject to approval from North York Community Council, traffic calming measures will be advanced on the routes indicated on the map in Attachment 19, independent of the Environmental Assessment implementation.

Over the past two years, we've heard from many residents raising concerns about traffic flow and road safety and we have taken some initiatives to improve the safety, like installation of All-Way Stop sign at Maxome and Wedgewood / Ruth.
\r\n\r\n
Following a petition and conducting a community survey, Transportation Services reviewed the stretch of Maxome from Finch to Steeles. City staff recommended installation of 20 speed humps and lowering the speed limit to 30 kilometre. Unfortunately, after the Council approved this plan on April 2nd, we received a new petition opposing them - signed by nearly 200 residents. Given the growing concern, I’ve decided to defer the item for further consultation at the June 4th North York Community Council meeting.
\r\n\r\n
I’m committed to finding a balanced solution that enhances safety while reflecting the input of the community. To that end, we’ve been working closely with local residents and staff from Transportation Services, and have booked a space for an in-person meeting to collaborate on a resolution together.

These residents at locations where front yard parking would otherwise be permitted as per the requirements set out in Chapter 918 are rejected solely due to the presence of on-street permit parking, regardless of whether installing a parking pad would result in the loss of an on-street parking space.
\r\n\r\n
Through discussions with City Staff, I am aware that there have been previous amendments to Chapter 918 that would permit applications to proceed regardless if permit parking is permitted on any given street as long as the approval of the front yard parking pad did not result in the loss of an on-street parking space. I am asking for your support today to approve an identical amendment for the portion of Ward 15 that includes former City of Toronto Ward 25 and the portion of former City of Toronto Ward 22 east of Mount Pleasant Boulevard.
\r\n\r\n
It is essential to clarify that this exemption would only be applicable if installing the parking pad does not result in the loss of an on-street parking space. Implementing this exemption will address local concerns and promote a more consistent, equitable, and coherent approach to front yard parking. City staff have assisted in drafting these recommendations and have expressed no objections to this approach.
