On the agenda of the last Planning and Priorities meeting of the TDSB was an item for declaring a small portion of Maplewood HS's land surplus ( a 20M wide strip at the north end of their property, essentially a landscape buffer for their parking).
Gabriel Dumont Non-Profit homes is the owner of an adjacent affordable housing complex at 4201 Kingston Road, and is seeking to expand their site with a new 4 storey building.
They requested TDSB consider donating the land, but would purchase it at fair market value if needs be; TDSB was prepared to look at a donation, but the Ministry refused to exempt them from regulations requiring it to be sold at fair market value. (what housing crisis?)
From attachment C, we can get an idea of what is proposed here.

@HousingNowTO will likely want to take note of this.
Of potential interest to UT'ers this site is adjacent to a previous affordable housing proposal just to the north of at 144 Galloway for which we also have a thread:
