Delta Bingo & Gaming as required by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, submitted a Proposal to Relocate a “Class A” Charitable Bingo Hall from 1799 St. Clair Avenue to 360 Evans Avenue to the City of Toronto for approval on March 22, 2023. Public notice was provided as per the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario requirements and a Community Meeting was held on April 19, 2023. On September 15, 2022, the Etobicoke York Panel of the Committee of Adjustment 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”). On October 4, 2022 the City Solicitor appealed the decision of the Committee of Adjustment 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 Item 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. On December 14 and 15, 2022, City Council directed the City Solicitor to withdraw the City's appeal of the Committee of Adjustment Decision A0332/22EYK permitting a bingo hall at 360 Evans Avenue and take any necessary action to give effect to City Council's decision.
