Proposal details
The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing is consulting on a municipal-endorsed request for a Minister’s Zoning Order.
A Minister’s Zoning Order, made pursuant to clause 47(1)(a) of the Planning Act, regulates the use of land and the erection, location and use of any building or structure on the land.
The Ministry is in receipt of a request from Liberty Development for a Minister’s Zoning Order to facilitate a mixed-use residential development at 171 Maplecrete Road, 140 & 160 Doughton Road, and Block 2 of Registered Plan 65M-4793 in the City of Vaughan. See location map below.
The Subject Lands are approximately 1.41 hectares and are located between Maplecrete Road and Creditstone Road, north of Doughton Road. The Subject Lands are currently occupied by 1-storey buildings containing industrial uses.
If made, the requested Minister’s Zoning Order would permit:
- Four residential towers ranging from 24- to 29-storeys;
- One 30-storey mixed-use tower comprising residential, office and hotel uses;
- A total of 1,565 residential units, with 182 purpose-built rental units; and
- A central outdoor amenity area.
To help ensure decisions are made in a transparent manner and support government priorities, the Ministry is seeking feedback on whether this request should be considered and any additional information that may help inform a decision.
