City-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013

In May 2013, the City passed the new comprehensive zoning by-law 569-2013 (New ZBL), harmonizing the 43 former zoning by-laws that applied to different areas of the pre-amalgamated municipalities.

All TDSB properties were excluded from the New ZBL. The City received hundreds of appeals to the New ZBL, including an appeal by the TDSB. Mediation sessions between TDSB and City staff were held in October 2017, with some positive discussion and alignment on some issues, but no formal action was undertaken to implement the agreed-upon discussions.

TLC is now re-engaging with City staff to implement previously agreed-upon areas and to further discuss and try to resolve outstanding issues, in order to bring TDSB sites into the New ZBL and ensuring that TDSB interests are protected.
