On September 15, 2022, the Etobicoke York Panel of the Committee of Adjustment (the “Committee”) approved an application for a minor variance to permit a bingo hall on the lands municipally known as 360 Evans Avenue (the “Application” or “A0332/22EYK”). The Committee's decision is included as Attachment 1. On October 4, 2022 the City Solicitor appealed the decision of the Committee on behalf of the City under the direction of City Council Item ED33.9, headed “Deputy Mayor's Manufacturing Roundtable Summary Report” adopted by City Council at its meeting on August 25, 26, 27 and 28, 2014. Recommendation 2 of ED33.9 provides the City Solicitor and appropriate City Staff with standing direction to appeal any Committee of Adjustment decision that does not conform to the Official Plan's Employment Area policies. The subject property is designated Core Employment Areas in the City of Toronto Official Plan. The proposed use is not permitted under the applicable Zoning By-law and does not conform with certain Employment Area policies in the Official Plan. A hearing date of February 23, 2023 has been scheduled by the TLAB. This Motion will direct the City Solicitor to withdraw the appeal of the Committee of Adjustment's decision.
