Description of Proposed Development
This application proposes create a plan of a subdivision to accommodate seven (7) mixed-use blocks varying in size from 4,028 m2 to 8,913m2 and one creek block of 3,438 m2.
Application materials are posted on the City’s Development Project webpage at www.burlington.ca/ovalcourtsubdivision.
Description of Proposal
The City of Burlington Official Plan (1997), as amended, designates the subject property as ‘Mixed Use Corridor – General”, which permits residential uses and mixed-use developments. Through amendment 139, the subject lands contain site-specific policies which further permit a minimum floor space index of 6:1 and buildings of up to 34-storeys.
The Official Plan (2020) designates the property as “Urban Corridor”, which permits residential uses and mixed-use developments in buildings between 2- and 6-storeys in height, and a Floor Area Ratio of 2.0:1. The Official Plan (2020) is subject to appeals and the “Urban Corridor” policies are not in effect for this property.
The subject lands are currently zoned ‘H-MXT-532’ (Mixed-Use Transit Station Area with Site Exception 532). The MXT zone permits residential, a variety of retail and service commercial, office, hospitality, entertainment and recreation use to a maximum height of two (2) storeys. Site exception number 532 further permits the same uses with heights of up to 34-storeys among additional other regulations.
What is proposed to change?
No changes are required to the existing Official Plan and Zoning By-law. The application is proposing to subdivide the land to facilitate the OLT approved proposal of eight mixed use buildings.
