REPORT RECOMMENDATION
That the recommend Council approve an amendment to the former Township of Osgoode Zoning By-law to change the zoning of 6500 South Village Drive from Private Open Space (OS2) to Residential (R[XXX]) exception Zone, to permit a residential subdivision as shown on Document 1 and as detailed in Document 2.
RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité de l'agriculture et des questions
rurales recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de
zonage de l’ancien Canton d’Osgoode visant à faire passer la désignation de
zonage de la propriété située au 6500, promenade South Village d’espace libre
privé (O2) à résidentiel, zone d’exception (R[XXX]), afin de permettre un
lotissement résidentiel, comme l’illustre le document 1 et le décrit en détail
le document 2.
BACKGROUND
6500
South Village Drive is located in Sunset Lakes' South Village Subdivision, west
of Old Prescott Road, north of Parkway Road and east of Stagecoach Road in the
Village of Greely. The subject site is known as the West Beach Subdivision. The
site is 4.80 hectares in size and currently vacant. There is a Trans-Northern
pipeline running along the back of the lots within a 18.0-metre easement.
The
applicant is proposing to re-subdivide the Blocks into 14 village size lots
with a minimum lot frontage of 30.50 metres and a minimum lot area of 0.21
hectares.
The purpose of the Zoning By-law amendment is to rezone the land from Private Open Space (OS2) to a Residential (R[XXX]) exception zone to permit the development of a residential subdivision. The applicant had requested the land be zoned Residential with the exception number 340 (R[340]), but staff are recommending a new exception zone be created to allow for an increased rear yard setback and no-build area.
DISCUSSION
The site is designated as 'Village' in the Official Plan. This designation allows the proposed use and the proposed zoning is in conformity with these policies.
It is proposed that the lands be
rezoned from Private Open Space (OS2) to a Residential (R[XXX]) exception
zone. At the time of the registration
of the South Village Subdivision and approval of the accompanying zoning, the
developer was undecided on how the subject land would be developed and hence,
the land was zoned as private open space. Upon further analysis of the land by
the owner and confirmation that the parcel could support additional residential
lots, the owner submitted an application for Plan of Subdivision. The subdivision was granted Draft Approval,
subject to conditions, on January 26, 2007.
Prior to registration of the plan of subdivision, the lands must be
rezoned to permit the proposed use.
The proposed zoning, as detailed in
Document 2, will be similar to the R[340] zoning which was requested by the
applicant and is the zoning on the adjacent residential lands, with the exception
that a provision is being added which will provide for a "no-build
area" within 28 metres of the rear
lot line. This is a result of a draft
plan of subdivision condition from Trans-Northern Pipelines Inc. to have a
building setback of a minimum of 10.0 metres from the easterly edge of the
pipeline right-of-way/easement. The
28.0-metre "no-build area" is the combination of the 18.0-metre wide
easement and the additional 10.0-metre setback.
Staff is in support of the Zoning
By-law amendment as it has been reviewed in conjunction with the subdivision
application and is deemed to comply with the applicable Official Plan policies.
CONSULTATION
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.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
The application was not processed by the "On
Time Decision Date" established for the processing of Zoning By-law
amendments due to the application dealing with two areas to be rezoned and
issues present with the other area causing the zoning application to be put on
hold. Subsequently, it was decided to
separate out the two areas to be rezoned and go forward with an amending Zoning
By-law just for the subject land as issues on the second parcel have yet to be
resolved.
