Questions about 506 Church St

Answered from the City’s Development Applications dataset and the Planning Act. General information, not legal or planning advice.

What is being built at 506 Church St?

The largest application on file proposes 48 storeys and 4,390 m² of gross floor area. Unit counts are not a field in the City's Development Applications dataset, so the number of homes is not stated here; where it exists it is in the planning rationale filed with the application.

Has the application at 506 Church St been approved?

Not yet. The file is recorded by the City as “OMB Appeal”. Before the Ontario Land Tribunal. Jurisdiction has moved from the City to the Tribunal. The Tribunal may substitute its own decision, and the file commonly settles with revised plans rather than proceeding to a full hearing.

How do I comment on a development application in Toronto?

Written submissions go to the assigned City planner and to your Ward Councillor, and they carry the most weight while a file is under review, before the staff recommendation report is finalised. The statutory notice, the community consultation meeting date and any submission deadline are not fields in the open dataset this page reads, so they have to come from the City's own record or the notice posted on the site.

What else is being built near 506 Church St?

Other applications within 500 m are listed on this page, and every application in Church-Wellesley can be browsed by ward and by stage in the planning section.

What this page does not carry

Unit counts are not a field in the City’s Development Applications dataset; where the figure exists it is in the planning rationale filed with the application. Committee of Adjustment matters, which are minor variance (s. 45) and consent (s. 53), are a separate City stream and are not in this dataset at all. Statuses are read from a published extract rather than a live feed, so confirm the current position against the City’s own record before relying on it.
