REPORT RECOMMENDATION

[U1]

That the Planning and Environment Committee recommend Council approve an amendment to the former City of Cumberland Urban Zoning By-law to change the zoning of 4366 Innes Road from Industrial Service Exception One Zone - MS1-X1 to Commercial Community Exception XX Zone - CC-XX as shown in Document 1 and as detailed in Document 2.

RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

Que le Comité de l'urbanisme et de l'environnement recommande au Conseil d'approuver une modification au règlement de zonage urbain de l'ancienne ville de Cumberland de manière à changer le zonage du 4366 du chemin Innes de zone de Service industriel assortie de l'exception Un - MS1-X1 à zone Commerciale communautaire assortie de l'exception XX - CC-XX, comme l'indique le Document 1 et le décrit le Document 2.

BACKGROUND

[U2] [U3] [U4]

The subject property is a vacant parcel located on the south side of Innes Road between Lanthier Drive and Tenth Line Road. The property has an area of 2,568.5 m2, and is subject to an easement over the westerly 4.5 metres for a private road that provides access to some adjoining commercial properties. To the south and east are a number of commercial buildings and to the west is a Petro Canada station. Across Innes Road to the north are residential homes.

The property is now vacant and the applicant is proposing to construct a building with 415 m2 of retail space for a stereo/home theatre show room on the ground floor with an additional 435 m2 of office space on the second floor. The proposal includes 41 parking spaces at the rear of the building. To provide this number of spaces the building needs to be pushed to within 3.4 metres of the Innes Road allowance. The request to reduce the side yard setback to 3.0 metres provides the appearance of a continuous building façade and is consistant with other buildings in this strip.

The intent of the application is to amend the zoning to permit the retail use and reduce the yard setback provisions to accommodate this building.

DISCUSSION

[U5]

Official Plan Amendment 28 amended the City Council Approved Official Plan on the south side of Innes Road so that the lands are designated Arterial Main Street. A wide range of retail stores, service establishments, offices and community-oriented facilities, such as schools and churches are permitted on Arterial Main Streets.

The former City of Cumberland Official Plan designates this property as Community Commercial, which consists of a wide range of large scale food, retail, office, restaurant, entertainment, recreational, service and automotive uses designed to serve either the needs of the Orleans Community and/or to act as a major destination serving an extensive trade area.

The property is zoned Industrial Service Exception One - MS1-X1, which does not permit retail without a large warehouse component. The application intends to amend the zoning to a Commercial Community Zone - CC, which permits a wide range of commercial uses including retail and office. An exception to this zone is needed to address the proposed setbacks of the building to the street and side yard lines. The exceptions are detailed in Document 2.

Amending the zoning on this property is consistent with the policies of the City Council Approved Official Plan as amended by Amendment 28. The reductions of the setbacks from the street and yard lines are also consistent with the Orléans Industrial Park Land Use and Design Study Urban Design Guidelines. There are other details regarding the proposed building that still need to be addressed through the site plan approvals process, namely, the locations of doors, windows and exterior finish.

CONSULTATION

[U6]

Notice of this application was carried out in accordance with the City's Public Notification and Consultation Policy. The Ward Councillor is aware of this application and the staff recommendation. The City did not receive any negative comments or opposition to this application.
