Please be advised that a complete Zoning By-law Amendment application
has been received for the above noted property. You should receive the
Zoning By-law Amendment circulation package in the near future. Below

The property is located on the south side of Arlington Street bound by
Catherine Street to the south, Kent Street to the east and Lyon Street
to the west. The property is municipally known as 265 Catherine
Street.



Description of Site and Surroundings:

The subject property currently contains the Greyhound Bus Terminal.
The area to the north primarily consists of low-rise residential uses
comprised of single detached dwelling, semi-detached dwellings,
townhouses as well as a few bed and breakfast and commercial
establishments. The area to the south contains a variety of commercial
uses and further to the south is Highway 417. On the east side of Kent
Street is Glashan Middle School and further to the east are primarily
commercial uses. The area to the west is primarily low-rise
residential uses.



Details of Requested Zoning By-law Amendment Proposal:

The property is currently zoned Ground Transportation Facility Zone
(T2A) which is reflective of the current use of the property. The T2A
zone permits ground transportation facilities such as a bus station,
parking garage and train station.



The proposal includes a total of 458 residential units within
residential buildings ranging in height from 9 storeys to 23 storeys,
446 underground parking spaces as well as commercial and office uses.
The Zoning By-law Amendment proposes to rezone the property to
facilitate the development of a mixed-use development by amending the
existing zoning from T2A to a site specific General Mixed Use zone
(GM) to permit the proposed development.
