MEMO TO: Toronto & East York Community Council FROM: Councillor Joe Mihevc, Ward 21, St. Paul’s West RE: 4 Bracondale Hill Road – Ontario Municipal Board hearing DATE: February 10, 2011 RECOMMENDATIONS: That City Council authorize the City Solicitor and Community Planning to attend and hire independent planning consultants, if necessary, to uphold the Committee of Adjustment refusal regarding the 4 Bracondale Hill Road application at the Ontario Municipal Board hearing when it is scheduled. SUMMARY: The Toronto and East York panel of the Committee of Adjustment (C of A) refused an application for variances at 4 Bracondale Hill Road on January 26, 2011, and the owner of the property is expected to appeal this decision to the Ontario Municipal Board. The C of A's decision notice and City of Toronto Planning staff report are attached. The applicant plans to build two three-unit buildings on a quiet residential street dominated by detached single-family homes. The size and location of this proposed development is out of character with the neighbourhood. This development does not maintain the intent and purpose of the City's Official Plan – which calls for new development to respect and reinforce prevailing neighbourhood building patterns – and does so by completely disregarding generally accepted limits on scale and mass (double the building height, triple the allowable GFA, and a required frontage reduction of 4.5 metres). I believe the C of A made the right decision in rejecting the application. The density and impacts on neighbours are out of line with character of the neighbourhood. The applicant's proposal is simply too large for the site. Sincerely, Councillor Joe Mihevc Ward 21, St. Paul's West .

Vacant Land to Park Transformations As a Catalyst for Neighbourhood Change and Gentrification in Toronto, Ontario
Vacant Land to Park Transformations as a Catalyst for Neighbourhood Change and Gentrification in Toronto, Ontario by Stephanie Stanov A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Geography and Planning University of Toronto © Copyright by Stephanie Stanov 2018 Vacant Land to Park Transformations as a Catalyst for Neighbourhood Change and Gentrification in Toronto, Ontario Stephanie Stanov Master of Arts Department of Geography and Planning University of Toronto 2018 Abstract Given the lack of vacant land in the City of Toronto, the redevelopment of available land tends to be highly contested. Stakeholders may advocate for the land to be developed as a park in order to increase social, economic and environmental services provided to residents, both at the neighbourhood scale and city-wide. However, concerns have emerged related to “green gentrification,” which is the exclusion or displacement of vulnerable populations through the creation of green amenities in marginalized neighbourhoods. Using a case study approach to three vacant land to park transformations, this thesis examines how neighbourhood change and gentrification are perceived by actors engaged in the park development process. Using historical analysis, stakeholder interviews, resident surveys and quantitative data analysis, this thesis reveals how the potential for park developments to accelerate gentrification is complex and highly politicized, and perceived more strongly on the ground than it is reflected in changes in quantitative data. ii Acknowledgments This thesis would not have been possible without the support of the several individuals. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Tenley Conway, for her unwavering support and trust in my abilities throughout this project.
