News from the Church Wellesley Neighbourhood Association
The CWNA's 14th Annual General Meeting was held on May 6. Committees reported and the election of a new Board of Directors took place. Here is the slide presentation of the meeting. Donald Altman, Luben Blagoev, Matti Charlton, Neil Gibb, Connie Langille and Tara Schorr will continue to serve on the Board of Director; they will be joined by new directors Wasim Ghani, Scott Morrison and Phil Parsons.
In March 2024, the City approved a proposal for the redevelopment of 34-42 Maitland, including The Maitlands Apartments. The proposal, originally for a 61-storey building, is approved at 56 storeys, including a 4-storey podium that retains the heritage character of the existing buildings. There will be 55 rental replacement units.
The approved height reflects changes made at the provincial level as to what is now allowed on Yonge Street and the side streets running off of it. A Community Consultation took place on April 26, 2023. The City issued an Intention to Designate the property under the Ontario Heritage Act in May 2023. City Staff issued an approval report on March 14, 2024. |
