The City of Oshawa will hold a Planning Act public meeting on June 1 for an application to amend the Oshawa Official Plan for lands at 416 to 448 Malaga Road.
The application, File OPA-2026-02, was submitted by the Regional Municipality of Durham on behalf of the Durham Regional Local Housing Corporation.
The public meeting is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chamber at Oshawa City Hall, 50 Centre Street South.
The applicant proposes a 12-storey apartment building with 242 units, two six-storey apartment buildings with 75 and 67 units, and two three-storey stacked townhouse buildings with 18 and 15 units.
The full proposal totals 417 dwelling units with shared open space and surface and underground parking. The applicant intends for about half of the units to be affordable and rent-geared-to-income units, with the remaining half at market rates.
The Official Plan amendment would add a site-specific policy to permit a proposed residential density of 254 units per net hectare.
Residents who want to address the committee electronically must submit a request to Legislative Services at clerks@oshawa.ca by noon on May 29. Written comments submitted by 4:30 p.m. on May 26 will be included on the agenda, while comments received after that time and by 4 p.m. on May 29 will be provided to committee members at the meeting.
The city lists Erika Kohek as the contact for the application at 905-436-3311 ext. 2519 or ekohek@oshawa.ca. Copies of the report are expected to be available beginning May 28 through the city's meeting calendar or by contacting the city.
