625 Atherley Road - 8-Storey Apartment Building with 45 Residential Units
(More specifically - 625 & 643 Atherley Road & 642 Driftwood Road (which also includes the former Oak Street ROW))
|
Description of Development |
The proposed development includes a new L-shaped 8-storey Apartment Building with 45 Dwelling Units and 96 Parking Spaces (68 parking spaces are required). Most of the tenant parking is located in the 1st level parking structure (43 spaces - see floor Plan for details). While the rest of the parking is mixed between visitors and tenants and located in 3 exterior lots. One lot located between the building and Lake Simcoe (25 spaces), a second smaller lot adjacent to Driftwood Road (15 spaces), and a 3rd lot with excess parking adjacent to Atherley Road (13 spaces), these spaces are within MTO’s setback and can not be considered required parking, which they are not. The development is now proposing two entrances, (Atherley Road and Driftwood Road). Pervious circulations of the Zoning By-law Amendment proposed a singular access off Driftwood Road only. The height of the proposed building is varied, stepping down in certain areas, but the highest height request at 8 storeys (30m), which requires a Zoning By-law exception. The development is setback the required distance from Lake Simcoe.
