The Town of Ajax council is inviting residents to share their thoughts on a proposed high-rise development at 60 Blowers Crescent during a public meeting on May 19, 2026. The project suggests building two towers reaching up to 30 storeys, which would add approximately 622 apartment units and 2,500 square metres of commercial space to the area near Salem Road and Kerrison Drive East.
The site is currently designated for industrial and employment use. To move forward with this project, the land must be re-designated for mixed-use development, a change that requires updates to regional and local planning documents. The proposal is being brought forward under provincial rules designed to prioritize new housing, specifically using the Municipal Act and provincial priority regulations.
The public meeting will take place virtually starting at 1:00 p.m. and will be available for viewing at ajax.ca/live. Residents who wish to speak at the meeting must pre-register by emailing [email protected] before 12:00 p.m. on Friday, May 15, 2026. Written comments can also be submitted to the town by the same deadline.
Because this project falls under specific provincial planning authorities, the public does not have the right to appeal the council’s final decision. Appeals are restricted to the developer, the provincial government, or other designated public bodies.
