Committee considered this item in conjunction with the associated report from the Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee (Item 3 - Designation of the “Gauvreau” Rowhouse, 324-334 Bruyère Street, Under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act - ACS2011-CCV-OBH-0002)

 

Committee heard from the following public delegations:

 

Jodi Murray spoke on behalf of the Bruyère Street Task Force.  She thanked Councillors Hume and Harder for their work representing and working with the community on the application, and coming to a compromise agreement on the Zoning, and looked forward to further work on the Site Plan issues.  She also thanked the other Planning Committee members who had taken the time visit the neighbourhood.

 

On the issue of heritage, she indicated that the Task Force consented to the forthcoming motion from Councillor Harder, and was acquiescing on the matter of designation in recognition that the proper process had not been followed, and in the interests of moving the file forward. However, there was remaining concern in the community that the City’s process was disjointed and was resulting in the loss of four valuable buildings. 

She noted that two of the buildings were on the national heritage inventory, and the remaining were on the Ottawa inventory.  She suggested the inability to save these buildings called into question to the meaning of those inventories.

 

She also raised the outstanding concern in the community about the long-term tenants of the existing houses, and how they would transition to a new affordable home. Ms. Murray expressed support for Councillor Harder’s motion to use cash-in-lieu of Parkland funds for transition assistance. 

 

John Chenier, also a member of the Bruyère Street Task Force, spoke as an individual as a resident of Cathcart Street.  He reviewed his concerns with the rationale behind the staff recommendation and the planning process.  While he indicated his agreement with the compromise that had been negotiated, de maintained that staff should never have recommended an R5 Zoning and the community should never have been put in the position it was.  His comments were outlined in a PowerPoint presentation, a copy of which is held on file with the City Clerk.

 

Elizabeth MacKenzie was also present in opposition to the report recommendations as presented, but did not need to speak in light of the submissions from previous speakers. 

 

Nancy Miller Chenier, resident of Cathcart Street, provided some historical background on the area in question, suggesting that the buildings to be demolished for the new development represented the history of Lowertown and of a founding part of Ottawa.  She sought the Committee’s support to assist residents in reclaiming and preserving an important part of Ottawa’s heritage.  A copy of Ms. Miller Chenier’s more detailed comments is held on file with the City Clerk and Solicitor’s office.

 

Adam Barbolet, resident of Bruyère Street, indicated his concurrence with the agreement that had been reached by the community.  However, he suggested that Ottawa’s planning process was dysfunctional.  He noted the proposed demolition represented a loss of affordable rental units, and  speaking to the factors that led to a shortage of such units in Ottawa.  He expressed concern that the City, developers, and community were in a position where they were allowed to agree to the demolition of these units given the City and Province’s policies for the provision of affordable housing. A copy of his detailed comments is held on file with the City Clerk.

 

Ted Fobert, FoTenn Consultants Inc.; Doug Hardie, Architect and Paul Webber, Bell Baker LLP were present for the applicants in support of the application..

REPORT RECOMMENDATION

 

That the Planning Committee:

Council did not have the authority to approve the designation of the property as the appropriate procedure outlined under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act had not been followed. He advised that Committee could move a motion recommending Council serve a notice of intention to designate, which would launch the appropriate process.

 

Committee considered this item in conjunction with the associated re-zoning application (Zoning – Zoning – 316 to 324 Bruyère Street and 317 To 321 St. Andrew Street - ACS2011-ICS-PGM-0085.)  A record of Committee’s consideration and list of delegations who presented on both items can be found under Item 1 above.

David Flemming, on behalf of Heritage Ottawa, spoke in support of the designation of the Gauvreau Row House and the recommendation directing staff to undertake a heritage review of the area.  A copy of his remarks is held on file with the City Clerk.

 

David Jeanes, member of the board of Heritage Ottawa, spoke as an individual in support of the designation of the Gauvreau Row House, speaking to the process that could be undertaken to do this.   

 

Committee considered the following motion as a replacement to the OBHAC recommendations:

AND WHEREAS through discussions with Heritage Staff regarding the Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee (OBHAC) motion recommending staff to undertake a review of Lowertown East’s remaining heritage;

 

BE IT RESOLVED that the following changes be made to the motion as contained in the report recommendations:
