REPORT RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning and Environment Committee recommend Council approve an amendment to the former City of Cumberland Zoning By-law to add new provisions to the R3C-X2 – Residential Mixed Variable Setbacks – Exception Two which applies to part of 2233 Mer Bleue Road and part of 2370 Tenth Line Road as detailed in Document 2.
RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité de recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de
zonage de l’ancienne Ville de Cumberland afin d’ajouter deux nouvelles clauses
à la zone résidentielle mixte avec marges de reculement variables assortie
d’une exception 2 (R3C-X2) qui concerne une partie du 2233, ch. Mer Bleue et
une partie du 2370 ch. Tenth Line, comme le précise le document 2.
BACKGROUND
The subject lands are located south of the east-west Hydro corridor and north of the future Blackburn Hamlet Bypass Extension within the Mer Bleue Community Design Plan area.
The lands which are located between Mer Bleue Road and Tenth Line Road are described as Part of Lot 12, Concession 11 and known as Part of 2233 Mer Bleue Road and Part of 2370 Tenth Line Road.
The lands are bound to the north and south by future residential development, to the east by future commercial uses and to the west by future apartments and commercial development contained within the mixed use area.
Purpose of
Zoning Amendment
The purpose of this Zoning By-law amendment is to accommodate the one-storey single detached bungalows proposed to be constructed in this part of the subdivision.
The existing zoning on the subject lands is R3C-X2 - Residential Mixed - Variable Setbacks - Exception Two. The subject lands were originally zoned to allow for the development of a mix of residential units including single detached, semi-detached and row dwellings. The zoning requirements established at that time did not provide for a modified rear yard setback and lot coverage to accommodate the construction of one storey bungalows.
DISCUSSION
Official Plan
The Official Plan designates the subject property as "General Urban Area" which permits a full range of types and densities of housing to meet the needs of all ages, incomes and life circumstances, including low, medium and high density housing and seniors' apartments, in combination with well located employment, shopping, service, cultural, leisure, park, natural areas and institutional uses to facilitate the development of complete and sustainable communities.
The proposed Zoning By-law amendment
will reduce the rear yard setback from 7.5 metres to 6.0 metres and will
increase the lot coverage from 45 per cent to 55 per cent in the existing
R3C-X2 zone to permit the one-storey single detached housing product proposed
within this plan of subdivision.
Adding provisions for bungalows within this subdivision will provide a housing product suitable for all ages. The one-storey units will blend in with the two storey products thus creating a more interesting streetscape. Although the rear yard setback will be reduced and the lot coverage will be increased, the minimum front yard setback will be maintained to continue to allow for tree planting in this area identified with sensitive marine clay soils.
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.
