    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Lower Yonge Precinct – City-Initiated Official Plan Amendment and Precinct Plan – Final Report Date: April 22, 2016 To: Toronto and East York Community Council From: Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District Wards: Ward 28 – Toronto Centre-Rosedale Reference 12-253083 STE 28 OZ Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to present the findings of the second and final phase of the Lower Yonge Precinct planning process. The report recommends an area-specific amendment to the Central Waterfront Secondary Plan, as well as the endorsement of the Lower Yonge Precinct Plan. This planning process was initiated to establish a planning framework for new development within this nine hectare area that capitalizes on its exceptional location and historical attributes. The proposed framework seeks to foster the development of a vibrant new, mixed-use community within the heart of the City's emerging Central Waterfront. It is anticipated to be a high-density, sustainable neighbourhood with an animated public realm, large central park, well-designed buildings, range of housing options and commensurate community services and facilities. Some of the key features contemplated for the Lower Yonge Precinct include: 13 towers; approximately 28,000 new residents and employees; a new community recreation centre; an elementary school; two child care facilities; affordable housing units; modifications to the Gardiner Expressway; a tunnel connection under the rail corridor; two new streets, enhanced cycling infrastructure and an extension of the PATH network. Staff report for action – Final Report – Lower Yonge Precinct The planning tools contained herein will facilitate the evaluation of subsequent planning applications in the Lower Yonge Precinct and will help to ensure that with the anticipated densities, appropriate infrastructure must be provided.
