Check out TWO FULL-ON BIG Development Plan applications in both SOUTH & NORTH OSHAWA being discussed this week.
Starting Monday Feb 7th @ 6:30 pm at the virtual Planning Act Public Meeting is the 80 Harbour Rd. (north side east of Simcoe St SOUTH) application by Nahid Corp to amend the Official Plan for 2 two mixed-use towers, varying in height from 18 to 35 storeys, together with 1,410 apartments + 11,178 sq.ft. main floor commercial space; and
On Wednesday Feb 9th @6:00 pm at the Committee of Adjustment (C of A) Meeting is the 2425 Simcoe St. NORTH. which is Tribute's Phase 2 site plan application for 606 tower + 18 townhouses, plus a separate 4 level high parking garage (426 spaces), and 2 level underground parking (407 spaces) and surface parking (291 spaces) for a total of 1,124 parking spaces. NOTE this application is on the east side of Simcoe St N directly opposite the 25 storey Tribute 505 unit apartment building now nearing completion) For this Phase 2 development Tribute is requesting a C of A variance because the building siting requires increased setback and additional parallel parking spaces which decreases the landscaped buffer to the south. They want to designate the lot frontage as being Simcoe St. instead of Steeplechase, and increase the buffer 1.4M to reduce the side yard setback 2M.
For more details on each see slide decks and report links below.

2425 SIMCOE ST NORTH --TRIBUTE'S APPLICATION TO COMMITTEEOF ADJUSTMENT
— Tribute says: THE BUILDING SITING REQUIRES INCREASED SETBACK AND ADDITIONAL PARALLEL PARKING SPACES WHICH DECREASES THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER TO THE SOUTH
THE FRONT YARD SETBACK RANGES FROM 4.25M - 5.35M. AND IT WANTS TO INCREASE MAX. SETBACK TO 5.4M.
SINCE THEY PLAN 10 PARALLEL ADDITIONAL PARKING SPACES ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE PROPOSED ROAD RUNNING EAST-WEST, TRIBUTE NEEDS TO REDUCE THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER FROM 5.0m TO 3.0m ON THE SOUTH SIDE
Note: the first submission of the Tribute Site Plan Application showed 2 towers and townhouses with 993 units, but for the 2nd submission they will only be advancing 1 tower with 588 units and the 18 townhouses
By the way, the latest Tribute development at Windfields is in partnership with RIO CAN https://renx.ca/riocan-living-verge-condos-first-solo-development/
