The plans for the new restaurant in the old Scotiabank on Richmond Road are contained in a report for the Committee of Adjustment, which requests permission to open a restaurant with no parking spaces.
"The proposed minor variance is consistent with the intent of the Official Plan as the reduced minimum number of parking spaces encourages the use of transit, cycling and walking," the letter states, adding the majority of the clientele is located within a 10-minute walk of the restaurant.
