A mix of low rise 3-storey townhouse buildings would be located around the perimeter of the site transitioning to multi-storey mid-rise (6-11 storeys) apartment buildings in the middle of the site framing a proposed 0.95 ha central park and high-rise (16-20 storeys) apartment buildings located on the northerly portion of the site.

The existing Official Plan designation is Residential – Medium Density which allows for low-rise townhouses and attached housing and walk-up apartments within a density range of 26-50 units per net hectare provided the building forms are compatible with the scale, urban design and community features of the neighbourhood. The existing RM2 zone permits single detached dwellings, semi-detached dwellings, duplex, triplex and fourplex buildings and townhouses, retirement homes, lodges, fraternities and private clubs and community institutions. The RM2 zone sets out a density range of 25-40 units per hectare and a maximum building height of 2 storeys.

The application proposes to increase the maximum net density to 302 units per ha within overall high density designation, 61 units per ha within the overall medium density designation in order to facilitate the development of 1450 residential rental units. The application also proposes to increase

maximum building height; reduce minimum front, rear and street side yard setbacks; reduce

minimum amenity and private area; reduce parking setbacks (habitable room and underground)

and increase balcony, canopy and porch projections.

The following documentation and plans were submitted in support of the revised applications. This information can also be accessed at: Georgian Court Redevelopment
