REPORT RECOMMENDATIONS
That the Planning and Environment Committee recommend Council approve an amendment to the Zoning By-law 2008-250 to change the zoning of 100, 300 and 645 Longfields Drive, as shown on Document 2 and as detailed in Document 4.
RECOMMANDATIONS DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité de l’urbanisme et de l’environnement recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de zonage 2008-250 afin de changer la désignation de zonage des 100, 300 et 645 de la promenade Longfields, comme il est indiqué dans le Document 2 et expliqué en détail dans le Document 4.
The subject property was draft approved in September 2008 to accommodate a variety of residential densities and units as well as some limited institutional and commercial land uses. At that time, the property was also rezoned (as per Bylaw 2008-290) to recognize the proposal as per the draft plan.
Although the subject lands are already zoned to permit a wide range of residential and commercial development, in order to achieve the type of development and streetscape desired in keeping with the current plan, an amendment is required to the Zoning By-law to permit different or additional uses and zoning standards. Also in light of some drafting oversights in the original Zoning By-law, a number of other minor amendments to the provisions are proposed to By‑law 2008-250.
The subject property is zoned to permit a variety of residential densities, heights and standards. In addition, the zones are intended to recognise a variety of ancillary uses including limited commercial, institutional and parkland.
The approved draft plan estimated that the property would yield approximately 1407 residential units. The approved zoning on the property in 2008 effectively increased the potential residential development yield to approximately 1868 units. The increase in potential yield is the result of establishing higher density permissions for certain blocks of land such as those lands abutting the transitway station. The likely yield of residential units as a result of this proposed amendment will be in the order of 1662 units. These lands were deemed to be well suited for higher density development.
The City, as the owner, has entered into agreements with various builders and developers for the development of the subject property and amendments are required to accommodate the proposed products of the various builders. The nature of the changes being requested are minor and are generally consistent with the original development vision for this property. A summary of the proposed zoning is outlined in Document 3 with the details described in Document 4.
The subject property is designated “General Urban Area” in the Official Plan. Policy 3.6.1.1 of the Official Plan permits all types and densities of housing, as well as employment, retail uses, service, industrial, cultural, leisure, greenspace, entertainment and institutional uses.
The subject property is designated “Low Density Residential” and “Mixed Density Residential” in the South Nepean Secondary Plan, Area 1, 2 and 3. Low Density Residential designation permits detached, semi-detached dwellings, street, block and stacked townhouses. Mixed Density Residential designation permits a variety of uses including low rise apartment. For lands subject to Subsection 2.3.3 a medium rise apartment building with a maximum building height of eight stories is permitted. Higher density housing forms are encouraged in locations proximate to the rapid-transit network, arterial and collector road and community facilities such as school and parks.
The zoning amendment proposes to address the following:
The concept plan for a portion of Stage 1 permits detached and semi-detached dwellings with attached garages setback from the main elevation of the house. The zoning amendment requires a six-metre setback from the main elevation for single car garage units and three and six metres respectively for each of the garages in two car garage models. The proposed setbacks will reduce the garage impact on the streetscape.
The builder selected to develop a portion of Stage 4 lands was chosen on the basis of their concepts embracing innovative planning principles and design standards that are in line with the 20/20 Vision. The concept is in keeping with the vision anticipated for this property except for the proposed change in the re-distribution of unit types and densities on the parcel.
In order to ensure that the overall density does not exceed what was originally approved under Bylaw 2008-290, the concept proposes street townhouses within Stage 4, Area R shown on Document 2 where higher density forms such as three and half storey walk ups were contemplated. Conversely, the builder has proposed higher density forms such as low rise apartments or stacked townhouses within Area L and Area M where originally these blocks only permitted multiple attached dwellings. Such parcels are appropriate for higher density forms due to the proximity of the proposed transit station. As a result of the re-distribution of unit types and densities, the proposal requires amendments to some of the zoning standards as outlined in Document 4.
The drafting of the original By-law 2008-290 preceded the adoption of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law 2008-250 and as such, a number of minor corrections are required in order to ensure compatibility and to correct some oversights which occurred in the drafting of the original by-law.
The Department supports the Zoning By-law amendment application because it responds to the policies in the Official Plan that speak to the creation of unique, compact and innovative developments that in the long term result in more efficient use of the City infrastructure and resources. The proposal is a definite movement towards the creation of an environmentally sustainable community that is in line with the 20/20 Vision.
The subject property is draft approved and the developer is working towards registration of the subdivision. Development on blocks within the Plan of Subdivision will require Site Plan Control applications.
The Highbury Woodlot which is designated as an Urban Natural Feature (Urban Natural Area No. 48), located in Stage 3 will be preserved. As part of the original rezoning in 2008, an Environmental Impact Statement and Preliminary Tree Preservation Reports were submitted. The current rezoning does not increase the permitted uses adjacent to the Highbury Woodlot that would affect the function and features of the Urban Natural Feature. An Environmental Impact Statement is not required as a result of the proposed rezoning.
N/A
Notice of this application was carried out in accordance with the City's Public Notification and Consultation Policy. The City did not receive any opposition to this application.
The City received inquiries from residents with respect to the height of buildings, the location of affordable housing, amount of greenspace and increased traffic. Clarification and additional information was provided to residents to address their concerns.
The Ward Councillor is aware of this application and the staff recommendation.
There are no legal/risk management implications associated with this report.
By approving the rezoning, the concept plans for the Longfields Plan of Subdivision can be implemented and the City can move forward the following priorities and objectives of the City Strategic Plan;
Sustainable Healthy and Active City – Require walking, transit and cycling oriented communities and employment centres; and
Planning and Growth Management – Become leading edge in community and urban design including housing creation for those in the city living on low incomes and residents at large and respect the existing urban fabric and neighbourhood form so that new growth is integrated seamlessly with established communities.
There are no direct financial implications associated with this report.
This application was processed by the "On Time Decision Date" established for the processing of Zoning By-law amendment applications.
