PARKWAY FOREST DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION – DEC 2017
The above application was considered at the North York Community Council (NYCC) meeting on October 17, 2017. The executive presented a petition with 204 signatures from the residents of Henry Farm to reject the application. HFCIA Secretary, Dunya Lackovic, spoke at the meeting on behalf of the community. Despite the objections of the community North York Community Council approved the application for 390 additional units. Following is the final count on the units approved in the Parkway Forest project in total:
• Year 2006: Developer proposed 3600 units – only 2200 units were awarded
• Year 2013: Developer requested 600 additional units – 591 units were approved
• Year 2017: Developer requested 405 more units- 390 units were approved The community made a substantial effort to reduce the originally planned units
The community feels cheated by the process as the developer was enabled to overcome a substantial percentage of the reductions the community negotiated at the outset.
