LONDON — 2783142 Ontario Inc., under the leadership of Ian Stone, has formally applied for a revised zoning by-law amendment with the City of London for a significant development initiative concerning the vacant portion of 2060 Dundas Street East.
The proposed amendment aims to pave the way for the construction of a six-storey residential apartment building encompassing 77 residential units.
The original proposal requested 78 units. The envisioned density stands at 87 units per hectare, marking a crucial addition to London’s housing landscape.
Situated approximately 105.0 metres north of Dundas Street’s right-of-way and about 970.0 metres east of the intersection of Dundas Street and Clarke Road, the subject lands span 0.9 hectares.
The strategic location places it within the Urban Corridor Place Type fronting a Civic Boulevard, as delineated in The London Plan.
The designation allows for a diverse array of potential uses, including residential, retail, service, office, cultural, recreational, and institutional.
The proposed residential complex, with a planned height of 19.8 metres, is carefully designed to optimize space utilization while harmonizing with the surrounding environment.
Additionally, the revised plan proposes 89 parking spaces, with four designated as barrier-free, and the original proposal included 83 spaces.
Currently zoned as Light Industrial (LI1/LI7) Zone and ‘Restricted Service Commercial (RSC2/RSC3/RSC4/RSC5)’, the requested zoning amendment seeks to establish a Residential R9 Special Provision (R9-3(_)) Zone.
The proposed amendment includes several special provisions to address specific site constraints and optimize the development’s potential.
Notable adjustments include a reduced lot frontage of 0.0m (whereas 30.0m is typically required), minimized setbacks in various directions, and an increased maximum building height of 21.0 metres.
Additionally, considerations such as holding provisions and additional special provisions may be employed to facilitate the project’s realization further.
The City of London will carefully evaluate the newly submitted revisions for the zoning amendment proposal, considering its alignment with existing regulations, potential impact on the community, and broader city planning objectives.
