Two six-storey wood frame apartment buildings are one step closer to going up in the Austin Heights neighbourhood.
On Monday, council voted unanimously in favour of third-reading for the 161-unit development, which is proposed for the 600-block of Shaw Avenue. The vote took place after three people, including the applicant, spoke in favour of the project during a public hearing.
According to a staff report, the project will consist of 68 one-bedroom units, 76 two-bedroom units and 17 three bedroom units. It will also generate an estimated $1.45 million in development cost charges and $392,080 in voluntary community amenity contribution funds to the city.
