136 Kingston Road - Rental Housing Demolition Application - Final Report

Summary​
An application for a Rental Housing Demolition and Conversion permit under Chapter 667 of the Municipal Code has been filed for the residential property at 136 Kingston Road. This application seeks approval to demolish and replace twelve (12) social housing units within an existing residential rental apartment building which is owned and operated by Akwa Honsta Non-profit Aboriginal Homes Inc., a non-profit housing provider. The applicant has proposed to provide on-site replacement of the existing units within a five-storey rear addition to the existing building.

A minor variance application to alter the existing four-storey apartment building by constructing a five-storey rear addition to the west side was approved by the Committee of Adjustment on September 2, 2020. The addition would result in twenty-four (24) net new dwelling units, for a total of one hundred and seventeen (117) social housing units (inclusive of the replacement of the 12 social housing units) on the site. The application was approved under the Open Door Affordable Housing Program in 2017.

This report reviews and recommends approval of the Rental Housing Demolition Permit under Chapter 667 of the Toronto Municipal Code.​
