Explanatory Note
Explanation of the Purpose & Effect of By-law Number 83-2024
The purpose of By-law 83-2024 is to change the zoning for the lands located at 555 Rossland Road West from R1-C/CIN/SO-D (Residential/Community Institutional/Special Office) to R6-C(16) “h-93” (Residential).
The effect of By-law 83-2024 is to permit the development of six stacked townhouse buildings (apartment buildings) with a combined total of 159 dwelling units with site specific regulations related to increased residential density, lot coverage, rear yard setback and encroachments of stairs into certain required yards, and reduced front, interior side and exterior side yard setbacks, height and minimum parking.
The effect of the “h-93” holding symbol is to ensure that the proposed development will not proceed until such time as site plan approval is obtained from the City and that noise is mitigated to the satisfaction of the City. While the “h-93” holding symbol is in place only uses permitted in an FD (Future Development) Zone and a temporary sales office shall be permitted.
All written and oral submissions received by the City of Oshawa were considered in the making of this decision.
The key map shows the location of the lands to which By-law 83-2024 applies.
