Virtual Community Consultation

About the Proposal
The developer has applied for a Zoning By-law Amendment (Application #25 256564 WET 03 OZ) to permit a 39-storey condominium tower at 69 Old Mill Terrace, located approximately 450 metres from Old Mill Station.
Key figures from the application
Height: 39 storeys
Floor Space Index (FSI): Approximately 13.6
Context: This represents roughly twice the minimum density required under the City's new Protected Major Transit Station Area (PMTSA) zoning and nearly double the permitted height under current PMTSA rules
The site currently contains low-rise rental apartment buildings that would be demolished to make way for the proposed tower.
Why This Matters — Potential Concerns
Residents may wish to raise questions or concerns about:
• Height and scale: At 39 storeys, this building would dramatically alter the character of the surrounding low-rise neighbourhood
• Shadows and sunlight: Tall buildings cast long shadows that can affect neighbouring properties, parks, and public spaces—particularly in fall, winter, and spring
• Traffic and parking: Increased vehicle and pedestrian traffic on Old Mill Terrace and surrounding streets, which were not designed for high-density development
• Transit capacity: Whether Old Mill Station and connecting bus routes can accommodate the additional ridership
• Infrastructure strain: Impacts on water, sewer, and stormwater systems, as well as local schools
• Loss of rental housing: The existing buildings provide rental apartments; residents may ask what provisions, if any, will protect current tenants or replace affordable rental stock
• Construction impacts: Noise, dust, truck traffic, and disruption during what could be a multi-year construction period
• Precedent: Whether approval of this scale of development will invite similar applications nearby.
What Happens at a Community Consultation Meeting
This is your opportunity to hear directly from City Planning staff and the applicant’s team, and to ask questions and share your concerns on the record.
Typically, the meeting will include:
1. Presentation by City Planning — An overview of the application, the planning framework (including PMTSA policies), and what the City is evaluating
2. Presentation by the Applicant — The developer and their consultants will present the proposal, including building design, site layout, and how they believe it fits the neighbourhood
3. Question and Answer Period — Residents can submit questions via the chat or Q&A function; City staff and the applicant will respond
4. Feedback Collection — Your comments become part of the official planning file and are considered as City staff prepare their report to Council or Community Council
Important: This is a consultation, not a vote. The meeting is designed to inform residents and gather their input, which City Planning will consider in their evaluation. If the City does not make a decision within 90 days of a complete application, the applicant may appeal directly to the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT).
