RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

 

Que le Comité de  recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de zonage 2008-250, de manière à faire passer le zonage des parties du 2299, 2367, 2413, 2553 et 2605, chemin Tenth Line et d’une partie de l’ancienne emprise routière située entre les lots 3 et 4, concession 10 de DR Zone d’aménagement  futur à R1V[XXXX] Zone résidentielle de densité 1 assortie d’une exception et R3Z[XXXY] Zone résidentielle de densité 3 assortie d’une exception, tel qu’illustré dans le Document 1 et exposé en détail dans le Document 2.

 

 

BACKGROUND

 

This site is described as Part of Lots 3 and 4, Concession 10 and identified as Stage 12A in the Avalon South Community. The subject property was part of an old vacant farm field.  The subdivision in its entirety is bounded to the north by the future Blackburn Bypass, to the west by Tenth Line Road, to the east by future urban development land and to the south by rural land.

 

This proposal is in keeping with the approved Avalon South Community Concept Plan which intended to have a combination of singles and row dwellings in this stage of the development. 

 

Existing Zoning

 

The current zoning on these lands is DR Development Reserve which recognizes lands intended for future urban development in areas designated General Urban Area in the Official Plan.

 

Proposed Zoning

 

The requested Zoning By-law Amendment will rezone these lands to an R1V[XXXX] zone and to an R3Z[XXXY] zone which will allow the development of residential single detached dwellings and multiple attached dwellings.

 

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.

 

Details of Proposed Zoning

 

The proposal is to amend the zoning from DR Development Reserve to R1V[XXXX] and R3Z[XXXY].  This development is in an area of marine sensitive clay soils. Council policies require that tree planting in these soils be setback from main buildings by 7.5 metres and located at a minimum of 2.5 metres from the curb. The proposed exception zones will reflect this requirement as the front yard setback has been increased to accommodate tree planting.  This distance, in addition to the width of the standard right of way in this area of the development, would permit the planting of the recommended species identified in the "Trees and Foundations Strategy in Areas of Marine Sensitive Marine Clay in the City of Ottawa" report presented to Planning and Environment Committee in September, 2005.

 

The R1V[XXXX] zone will include an increase in the lot width from 10.5 metres to 11.0 metres, an increase in the front yard setback to 6.0 metres from the current 3.0 metres and an increase in the rear yard to 6.8 metres from the current 6.0 metres in the R1V zone.  The lot coverage for one-storey buildings will be 55 per cent and 50 per cent for buildings greater than one storey.

The R3Z[XXXY] zone will include a lot width minimum of 5.0 metres, an increase in the front yard setback from 3.0 metres to 6.0 metres, an increase in the rear yard setback to 6.8 metres from 6.0 metres and an increase in the inside side yard setback to 1.5 metres from the current 1.2 metres. 

 

The front and rear yard setback amendments will allow for the planting of trees to create the desired streetscape within the community and will provide a more functional rear amenity area for each unit.

 

This neighbourhood will provide a diversity of residential housing types and densities.  The proposed medium density residential in this stage will provide a form of affordable housing given the increasing market demand for townhomes in this area.

APPLICATION PROCESS TIMELINE STATUS
