This meeting will take place on:
Date: Tuesday July 7, 2020 - Start Time: 6:30 pm
The City of Burlington has received applications from Old Lakeshore Burlington Inc. to re-designate and rezone the property located at 2107 Old Lakeshore Road & 2119 Lakeshore Road as shown on the sketch below.
The purpose of these applications is to support the redevelopment of the lands with a 28 storey apartment building, including mechanical penthouse, with retail/commercial uses at grade, 150 residential units above, and 150 parking spaces in five levels of underground parking.
The property is currently designated “Downtown Mixed Use Centre – Old Lakeshore Road Precinct” within the City’s Official Plan. The applicant is proposing to amend the Official Plan to allow an increase in height and to clarify that a road widening along Lakeshore Road is not required on the subject lands.
The property is currently zoned “Downtown Old Lakeshore Road (DL-A)” which permits apartment buildings up to a maximum height of 10 storeys and 31.5 metres, and a maximum floor area ratio (FAR) of 4.5:1 on the subject lands. The applicant is proposing an amendment to the Zoning By-law to seek relief from standards related to building height, floor area ratio, setbacks and parking.
Development rendering heading west on Lakeshore Road.
