Petition Summary: Vive Developments has received approval for a “minor variance” from the Committee of Adjustment to build a 35m mixed-use building on King Street East adjacent to the residential neighbourhood consisting of Dane Street, Crescent Street and Borden Avenue N. Current zoning allows for a maximum building height of 19.5m. We contend that proper process was not followed and that an application for a zoning bylaw amendment should have been required to better allow community input and discussion.

Application No: A 2021-069
Description: A 2021-069 - 926-936 King Street East  Permission to construct a 10-storey 98-unit multi-residential mixed-used building having a maximum building height and proposed penthouse to permit a building 32m for the building and 35m for the penthouse; relief from Section 541R to permit a building height of 32m rather than the maximum building height of 19.5m; a parking rate of 0.42 parking spaces per unit rather than the required 1 parking space per unit; and, a visitor parking rate of 5% of the requested parking rather than the required 20% visitor parking required.

Action Petitioned For: We the undersigned are concerned citizens who urge Council to act now to consider the input of concerned citizens in the above neighbourhood, and assist in turning over the decision of the Committee of Adjustment on Application No: A 2021-069, pending a zoning bylaw review.
