TO THE AREA RESIDENTS:

Re:           Proposed Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning Application
                 1619 and 1623 Northmount Avenue
                 Lots 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 R.P. 308
                 East side of Northmount Avenue, South of South Service Road
                 To -permit 5 detached freehold dwellings and 30 condominium row
                 dwellings

The City is in receipt of an application to amend the Official Plan from "Residential Low Density II" to "Residential Low Density II-Special Site" and the Zoning By-law from "R4" and "RM1" to a "R5" and "RM5 - Special Section" in order to permit the proposed development consisting of 5 freehold detached dwellings and 30 condominium row dwellings.

The existing Official Plan designation (Lakeview District Policies), "Residential Low Density II”, permits detached, semi-detached, duplex and other types of dwellings with individual frontages on a public street, including street townhouses, within a net density range of 17-30 units per net hectare. The applicant is proposing to develop 5 freehold detached dwellings fronting onto a public road and 30 condominium row dwellings fronting onto a private/condominium road.  A total density of 31 units per net hectare is proposed.

The existing zoning is split-zoned R4 and RM1 under Zoning By-law 5500. The "R4" zoning classification permits only detached dwellings on individual lots with a minimum lot frontage of 15 in (49.2 ft.) for interior lots and 19.5
in (63.9 ft.) for comer lots. The "RM1" zoning classification permits only detached and semi-detached dwellings with a minimum lot frontage of 18 m (59.0 ft) for an interior lot and 21 in (68.9 ft.) for a comer lot. The applicant is
proposing to amend the zoning classification to "R5" for the detached dwellings and "RM5-Special Section" for the condominium row dwellings in order to permit the proposed development. The "R5" zoning classification permits detached dwellings on individual lots with a minimum lot frontage of 9.75m (31.9 ft.) and the proposed "RM5-Special Section" zoning classification permits row dwellings with development standards specific to the proposed development.

... continued/            - 2 -

Accordingly, I have scheduled a meeting on Thursday October 17 the 2002 at 7:00 p.m., at the Mississauga Senior's Centre, 1389 Cawthra Road, in the Lucy Turnbull Auditorium, to discuss the proposed development.

I hope to see you there.

Regards,

Carmen Corbasson
Councillor, Ward I
