SoHo Community Concerns on Fincore Group's Land Use Change Proposal

The SoHo Community Association urges the Planning and Environment Committee to ensure that the proposed land use changes by the Fincore Group align with the community's needs. Vital issues include maintaining open access to the river, preserving gathering spaces, and completing the Thames Valley Corridor Plan. Additionally, there is growing concern over the potential loss of the Growing Concern daycare at 385 Hill St., which serves as the community's only not-for-profit daycare. We request the postponement or cancellation of the demolition to protect this valuable service.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Soho Community Association Regarding Fincore Group’s application for proposed land use change on Wellington, Waterloo, and South Streets.

  2. Close the Gap between drawings and built form Planning and Environment Committee, please be vigilant in ensuring what is proposed and approved by you is what is actually built.

  3. What remains important to soHo • Effortless and open access to the River • Open space along the River • Gathering spaces along the river • Completion of the Thames Valley Corridor Plan • Respect for our built and natural heritage • Maintaining an inclusive community. • Completion of the project. • Reversion clause on the sale of city owned land

  4. A Looming problem for SoHo • Growing Concern Day care currently holds a lease with LHSC at 385 Hill St. Once the building is vacated, our neighbourhood may lose Growing Concern, our only not for profit day care.

  5. Susan Gregory the Executive Director of Growing Concern and Julie Misener from Fincore have had discussions about potential utilization of space in their new building, but the time lines for the estimated completion of the project, and the demolition of 385 Hill Street (in 2015) do not meet. • Our community asks this committee and council for their assistance. We would like to see the demolition for 385 Hill Street postponed or cancelled, whichever is to the greater benefit of Growing Concern and SoHo, as it is crucial that this entity remains in our community.
