Part A provides a staff recommendation in relation to the application for a mixed-use development on the subject lands.

Through the processing of the application, staff inquired with the Region regarding the opportunity to create an intersection at Kings Cross Road and Queen Street, to support the goals for transforming Queen Street.

City of Brampton economic development staff support Morguard Corporation's application for a holiday exemption for the Bramalea City Centre under the RBHA and supports the analysis that this designation would benefit the retailers, area residents and tourists, providing an opportunity to shop within Brampton on select designated holidays and not export their spending to other jurisdictions. Recommendations: 1. That the report from Jeffrey Baines, Manager, Business Information and Competitive Policy, Economic Development and Communications dated May 16, 2011 to the Committee of Council Meeting of June 1, 2011, re: Application for Exemption from the Retail Business Holiday Act by Morguard Corporation for the Bramalea City Centre, be received; and 2.
