On April 4, 2022, the City received an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application for 1245 and 1285 Dupont Street, 1260 Dufferin Street, and 213 Emerson Avenue to permit the construction of 2,966 dwelling units and 24,216 square metres of non-residential gross floor area in the 8 buildings already approved on the Site, ranging in height from 18 to 48-storeys. The application represents an approximate 30-percent increase of height and residential gross floor area across Blocks 1 to 4 of the already approved Reimagine Galleria development at the Site. The proposed additional dwelling units include purpose-built rental and affordable rental at the Site. The City received a further resubmission for the Site in January 2024. The applicant appealed City Council's neglect or failure to make a decision on its application for the Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment to the Ontario Land Tribunal on April 18, 2024. On December 3, 2024, the City Solicitor received a with prejudice settlement offer, consisting of the correspondence and architectural plans and drawings attached to this report as Public Attachment 1. The Settlement Offer is open until the end of the City Council meeting commencing on December 17, 2024, at which point it will be withdrawn. The City Solicitor requires further directions for the upcoming Ontario Land Tribunal Case Management Conference on February 7, 2025. Given the deadline for the Settlement Offer, this matter is urgent and cannot be deferred.
