RECOMMANDATIONS DU
RAPPORT
Que le Comité de
l'agriculture et des affaires rurales recommande au Conseil
1. d’approuver une
modification au nouveau Règlement de zonage général visant à changer de AG2 à
AG6[xxr] le zonage de la propriété située au 6960, chemin McCordick, tel qu’il
est illustré dans le Document 1 et détaillé dans le Document 2.

BACKGROUND
The parcel to be
rezoned is approximately 28 hectares in area, located on the west side of
McCordick Road, south of Pierce Road and north of Mackey Road. The applicants applied for, and received,
conditional consent from the Committee of Adjustment to sever the dwelling and
accessory detached outbuildings known as 6948 McCordick Road made surplus
through farm consolidation on a 2.6-hectare parcel. In accordance with the requirements of the Provincial Policy
Statement, parcels remnant of such applications are required to prohibit the
construction of future dwellings on the vacant farmland. Consent to sever the dwelling is conditional
on this rezoning.
Rideau Zoning By-law
The existing zoning is A2 (General Rural). The A2 zone requires a minimum interior side yard width of nine metres.
Proposed Zoning
The lands will be placed in an
A2-XX ( General Rural - exception zone) to prohibit residential dwellings on
the vacant farm parcel and recognize the existing interior side yard width as
the minimum internal side yard width for the existing storage building.
DISCUSSION
Official Plan
The parcel is designated Agricultural Resource in the Official Plan. The policies permit severance of a dwelling made surplus through farm consolidation provided the vacant agricultural parcel is rezoned to prohibit any residential use.
In addition to the requirements of the Provincial Policy Statement and the Official Plan to rezone the lands to prohibit future dwellings to be constructed thereon, the applicant has requested that the zone recognize the location of an existing storage shed located approximately three metres from the new lot line.
New Comprehensive Zoning By-law
The Comprehensive Zoning By-law was passed by City Council on June 25, 2008. The new Zoning By-law indicates the land is zoned AG2. An amendment to AG6 will be required to prohibit residential uses. The AG Zone will also establish a minimum lot area of 18 hectares and a minimum lot frontage of 60 metres.
A rural exception zone [XXr] will also be created to recognized the existing internal side yard width as the minimum internal side yard width for the existing storage shed.
The
rezoning supports the agricultural community, permitting the farmer to dispose
of a dwelling surplus to his operation, while protecting and preserving the
agricultural use of the retained lands, by prohibiting future dwellings to be
constructed thereon.
