• the compatibility of the land use designations of the lands adjoining those<br />

designated Special Policy Areas as shown in Appendix B or as further<br />

detailed in a Part II Plan; and<br />

designated Special Policy Area and the long term viability of existing<br />

of this report.<br />

4.5 Zoning<br />

The in-force Zoning By-law applying to the subject site is former City of Toronto<br />

Zoning By-law 438-86, as amended. The northerly portion of the site is included<br />

in the new City-wide Zoning By-law No. 569-2013, which was enacted by City<br />

Council on May 9, 2013. However, it is subject to numerous appeals to the<br />

Ontario Municipal Board and therefore is not yet in force.<br />

By-law 438-86<br />

The majority of the site is zoned I2 D3 by Zoning By-Law 438-86, with the portion<br />

of the site fronting Queen Street being zoned MCR T2.5 C2.0 R2.0 (see Figure 8).<br />

The maximum permitted height within the lands zoned I2 D3 zone is 18.0 metres,<br />

while the lands zoned MCR T2.5 C2.0 R2.0 are subject to a 14.0 metre height<br />

limit (see Figure 9).<br />
