• Scarborough community council last July deferred a decision on Podium’s Official Plan and zoning amendment application until the first quarter of 2019. Gary Crawford, local councillor before ward boundaries changed, called the proposal unacceptable.

• After a Feb. 6 community consultation, Podium announced it was withdrawing the application and hoped to resubmit it in April, with revisions. “We have heard that potential alternatives should be explored in order to address comments raised throughout the process to-date,” Christian Huggett, the company’s vice-president development, said in a Feb. 22 letter.

• Ward 24 Coun. Paul Ainslie, who now represents the area due to boundary changes, said he and residents made it clear they didn’t support a 27-storey tower, “and were further concerned with the increase in vehicle traffic, the lack of community benefits, as well as safe pedestrian walkways.”
 
Site Plan Control Application for the development of two separate residential buildings, one with a proposed height of 37.5 metres and 12 storeys (Building B) located closest to Kingston Road, and the second with a proposed height of 22.5 metres and 7 storeys (Building A), located closest to Dale Avenue. A total of 285 dwelling units are proposed, comprised of a range of unit types from studios to 4-bedroom units. Two levels of underground parking are proposed beneath the buildings providing a total of 317 parking spaces, including 43 spaces for visitors. A total of 285 bicycle parking spaces are proposed, and a separate Type "G" loading space is proposed for each building. The overall FSI of the development is 1.65, Privately owned publicly accessible landscape space is proposed along the north portion of the site leading to a potential pedestrian connection to the Guidwood GO station located on the east side of Kingston Road. Refer also to the related Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application: File no. 18 154389 ESC 36 OZ.

So people complain about housing not being unaffordable and completely out of reach, then when there's a nice proposal to help solve the problem they come up with garbage like: "the neighborhood is not suited for more children"?

Are they damn serious? I wish we could find a list of the people who made this complaint so we could throw them out of their houses and give people who really need housing a home. That way, the people thrown out could see that they're "not well suited for the city".

Or better yet, if we could hike their rents/mortgage payments by 25% that would be great. We could use their payments to provide affordable housing elsewhere in the city.
 
Back at SCARBOROUGH COUNCIL on September 17th - with a very complicated (ie. "hope to have") 47 x units of new Affordable-Housing...


There's a bunch of blame to pass-around on this site regarding the loss of the Affordable-Housing units on this site over the years, but a LOT of it is caused by the lower-density that City Planning acquiesced to on this site to keep the neighbours happy...
