31-2022 LOCAL PLANNING APPEAL TRIBUNAL (LPAT) DECISION MADE - 2404099 ONTARIO LIMITED

7090 and 7200 MARKHAM ROAD (13.13)

Summary from the City Solicitor
On September 17, 2020, the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (the “Tribunal”) approved and issued an order regarding the settlement between the City of Markham and 2404099 Ontario Limited (JD Development Group) (the “Appellant”) with respect to appeals by the Appellant from the City’s failure to make a decision regarding applications for Site Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment for 7190 and 7200 Markham Road, located on the southwest corner of Markham Road and Denison Street.

The settlement permits the lands to be developed with two hundred fifty-six (256) townhouse dwellings and 11 flexible dual use units located along the Denison Street frontage.  The dual use units contain 1250 m2 of commercial space and are designed to serve commercial functions with permissions in the Zoning By-law Amendment that allow these units to be used as residential. The development will be serviced by a total of 404 parking spaces of which 393 are in an underground garage and 11 are at grade parking spaces.

The Tribunal approved the Zoning By-law Amendment that deletes the subject lands from the designated area of By-law 90-81, as amended, and incorporates them into the designated area of By-law 177-96 and zones them to permit the development outlined above.  As the Tribunal has issued its final decision and issued an order regarding the Zoning By-Law Amendment, that Zoning By-law now require assignment of a by-law number for administrative and municipal tracking purposes.
