1950 Scott Street – Rezoning – Open House

The City of Ottawa has received a Zoning By-Law Amendment application to facilitate the construction of a 22 storey mixed-use building and associated underground parking for 1950 Scott Street, 312 Clifton Road and 314 Clifton Road.  The site represents a land assembly that includes a vacant 1.5 storey building used previously by the Buddhist Progress Society of Ottawa, a vacant three-storey detached dwelling, and a vacant two-storey detached dwelling.  A previous zoning amendment to develop a 20 storey building was approved in 2019. 

The proposed amendment seeks relief from the existing zoning provisions to:

  • Amend Schedule 400 to reflect amended setbacks and maximum building heights;
  • Reduce required resident parking to zero; and
  • Remove the Holding Zone and the provisions relating to a previous Section 37 of the Planning Act agreement and replace with a Community Benefit Charge agreement.

Our office will be hosting a virtual Open House to provide an opportunity for the applicant team to share information on the rezoning proposal and to answer questions that the community may have.

The webinar Open House will be held on Tuesday, November 19 at 7 pm.  To join, you simply need to download Zoom; use the address below and passcode:
