In light of the actions noted above by
@interchange42 I don't think your post merits a response; but for the benefit of others who might have similar objections, I will offer one nonetheless.
I feel as if this finished project would cause traffic issues along Wilson Avenue
It will have a marginal, offsettble impact on traffic, please follow the link:
app.toronto.ca
to the application documents and consult the Transportation Impact study. It can be found under 'supporting documents;' on page 4
A summary paragraph from same:
But by all means read the details and see their math.
, a strain on the public transit system
That strains credulity. There is ample ability to increase bus service on Wilson, and plenty of extra capacity on Line 1 on this side of the loop.
and a strain on the power grid in the area.
On what basis would you draw such a conclusion. I imagine Toronto Hydro would have something to say if that were an issue.
Not to mention Wilson Avenue needs to be as open as possible due to the nearby hospital and its emergency vehicles. Adding more strain to the traffic between Wilson and Petherhill Avenue could cause issues with the incoming and outgoing emergency service vehicles that need to go by at any time of the day. They are the most important.
See the Transportation Impact Study noted above.
The area would feel VERY very cramped along with the other 12 story residential buildings that are proposed to be built just down the street from this location. I do not think this project is a good idea
That's your preference, and you are welcome to it; it is, on its own, however, it is not a legal or planning basis on which the City could deny or seek revision to an application.
There are any number of planning guidelines the City's is obliged to consider. These include the Provincial Policy Statement, the Growth Strategy, the Official Plan, Shadowing Guidelines and more. You may wish to familiarize yourself with these to understand on what basis this development might be revised.
. Isn’t the 27 story tower surpassing local airspace height guidelines?
If you are referring to the zoning, almost certainly, but that's why there is a Planning Application here, to alter the zoning.
If you are referring to the height restrictions that concern Downsview Airport, please note that the airport is being redeveloped, and the runway permanently closed, so those restrictions will not be in play beyond the current year.
