Lime Ridge Mall publicly submitted their intent to redevelop in October, and received site specific permissions to do mixed-use. (This is tied up as part of the OPA 69 appeal at the OMB)
Eastgate Square publicly submitted their intent during the Centennial Secondary Plan process. Their permissions are officially tied up as part of an appeal of this Secondary Plan, but that appeal is about a Starbucks Drive-Thru at Nash & Queenston and should be settled in the near future)
Mountain Plaza Mall has already submitted a planning application for
two six storey residential buildings as Phase I of their redevelopment.
(Note: the file was in the initial staff comments phase when I pulled it in Feb, and I'm planning to pull it mid-May when more details are available)
Mayor Eisenberger was recently briefed that all of this was happening, and moved his motion to get ahead of the credit for what is already happening.
