6906 and 6918 Yonge Street - Official Plan Amendment (D09-2026-001) and Zoning By-law Amendment (D14-2026-001)

Applications for Official Plan Amendment (D09-2026-001) and Zoning By-law Amendment (D14-2026-001) have been received proposing to redevelop the current racetrack use into a self-storage facility with parking. The proposed development includes a total of 1,243 self-storage units in 18 buildings, across a land area of 10 hectares. Additionally, an 8,309 square metre outdoor storage area is proposed towards the southwest corner of the facility. Vehicular access to the site would be achieved through a single two-way driveway from Yonge Street with one-way stop control. Two 5,824 square metre and 3,008 square metre future development blocks are also included for future complementary commercial uses. In order to facilitate the proposed development, the Official Plan Amendment (OPA) proposes to redesignate all developable lands outside of the woodlot and woodlot buffer from “Agricultural Area’ to a site-specific ‘Rural Commercial’ designation. While the woodlot on the western portion of the Subject Lands is intended to be preserved, the Official Plan Amendment also seeks to refine the limits of the ‘Key Natural Heritage Features and Key Hydrologic Features’ (KNHF & KHF) designation consistent with the findings of fieldwork and the submitted Natural Heritage Evaluation. The Zoning By-law Amendment (ZBA) proposes to rezone the developable portions of the Subject Lands outside of the woodlot and associated buffer from the current ‘Open Space Exception 4’ (OS-4) and ‘Agricultural General’ (AG) Zones to a site-specific ‘Commercial Business Park’ (CBP-X) Zone. The ZBA also proposes to rezone the entirety of the woodlot and its associated 30 metre buffer from ‘Agricultural General’ (AG) to the ‘Environmental Protection’ (EP) Zone.

A Public Meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday April 15, 2026 to be held in the Council Chambers at 6:30pm. Please see the below links to the Notice of Complete Application and Public Meeting and supporting materials for more information.
