Institutional and
Recreational Front – 5.00

4. What are the Table VIII.G.6. AMBF = 38,841.44 sqm
Allowable Maximum Minimum TOSL
Building Footprint Requirements by

Maximum Allowable
Percentage of Site

the structure?

5. Check Against Table VIII.1. 𝑃𝑆𝑂 = AMBF / TLA

PSO = 90%

6. What is the Building Table VII.2. Building Type of Building/Structure –

Height Limit (BHL) Height Limit (BHL) Commercial 2 (C-2)

8. What is the Table VIII.1. MinTOSL = (TLA – AMBF)

minimum TOSL, Reference Table of
maximum ISA, Maximum Allowable MinTOSL = (100% – PSO)
minimum USA, and PSO, Maximum
MACA? Allowable ISA, the
MACA, the
AMBF = 38,841.44 sqm
Minimum USA and
the TOSL by Type TLA = 42,611.44 sqm
of Land Use Zoning
per Lot PSO = 90%

MinTOSL = (42,611.44 - 38,841.44)

MinTOSL = 3,770 sqm

MinTOSL = (100% - 90%)

MinTOSL = 10%
MinUSA = Area of Front Yard

Y1 = Frontage

MinUSA = 939.74 sqm

MinUSA = 939.74 / TLA

MinUSA = 939.74 / 42,611.44

MinUSA = 0.02205

MinUSA = 2%

MaxISA = Area of Side Yard + Area of

Rear Yard

MaxISA = Y2 + Y3 + Y4

MaxISA = 2,830.26 sqm

MaxISA = 2,830.26 / TLA

MaxISA = 2,830.26 / 42,611.44

MaxISA = 0.066420

MaxISA = 6%
 MACA = maxPSO + maxISA

MACA = AMBF + Y2 + Y3 + Y4

MACA = 38,841.44 + 2,830.26

MACA = 41,671.7 sqm

MACA = 41,671.7 / TLA

MACA = 41,671.7 / 42,611.44

MACA = 0.977946

MACA = 95%

9. What is the Table VII.G.1. MaxGFA = TLA x FLAR

Maximum Gross Floor Reference Table of
Area (GFA) and Total Floor to Lot Area FLAR DESTINATION RIGHTS – 3.60
Gross Floor Area Ratio (FLAR) up to 9.00 (at a 15-storey or 45.00 m
(TGFA)? Designations/Rights BHL)

TLA = 42,611.44

FLAR = 3.6

MaxGFA = 42,611.44 x 3.6

MaxGFA = 153,401.18 sqm

 Based on MaxPSO and BHL,

MaxTGFA = maxPSO x BHL

MaxTGFA = AMBF x BHL

AMBF = 38,841.44 sqm.

BHL = 6 (Number of allowable

storeys)

MaxTGFA = 38,841.44 x 6

MaxTGFA = 233,048.64 sqm

Table VII.G.2. Based on MaxGFA,

Conversion Table of MaxTGFA = maxGFA x Conversion

Gross Floor Area Factor
(GFA) to Total
Gross Floor Area MaxGFA = 153,401.18 sqm
(TGFA)
C.F = 1.33

MaxTGFA = 153,401.18 x 1.33

MaxTGFA = 204,023.57 sqm
