RECOMMANDATION DU
RAPPORT
Que le Comité de
l'urbanisme et de l'environnement recommande au Conseil d’approuver une
modification au Règlement de zonage 2008-250 afin de changer le zonage du 3661,
chemin Greenbank de DR – Zone d’aménagement futur à L2[1718]H(15) – Zone de
grande installation de loisirs, exception 1718, R1Z – Zone résidentielle de
densité 1, et R3Z[1677] – Zone résidentielle de densité 3, sous-zone Z,
exception1677, comme il est indiqué dans le Document 1 et expliqué en détail
dans le Document 2.
BACKGROUND
The subject lands are located east of Greenbank Road, between Cambrian Road and the southern extent of the Stonebridge development in the Barrhaven South Community. They represent the remaining undeveloped lands of the Stonebridge community. The 30-hectare vacant lands are part of the Stonebridge Phase 10 South, 11 and 12 subdivision. The subdivision was draft approved on March 26, 2009. Existing and planned residential developments surround the site with the exception of a block located in the northern portion of the subdivision, adjacent to the intersection of Greenbank Road and Cambrian Road, which is proposed for the development of a range of institutional uses including a recreational facility, school and emergency services.
Purpose of Zoning Amendment
The purpose is to rezone the land to accommodate residential and institutional development consisting of 320 single detached houses, approximately 180 townhouses and a range of leisure, recreational, culture and emergency service uses.
Existing Zoning
The subject site is currently zoned Development Reserve Zone (DR) under Zoning By law 2008-250. The purpose of the zone is to recognize lands intended for future urban development.
Proposed Zoning
The proposed zones are Major Leisure Facility Zone (L2[1718]H(15)) for the northern block to allow a range of institutional uses including a community centre, recreational and athletic facility, sports arena, park, school and fire station. Residential First Density Sub Zone Z (R1Z) is the zone proposed for the single detached houses and Residential Third Density Sub Zone Z Exception 1677 (R3Z[1677]) is the zone requested for the street townhouses.
DISCUSSION
The Official Plan designates the property General Urban Area. This designation permits the development of a full range of housing types to meet the needs of all ages and incomes, as well as conveniently located employment, retail, service, leisure and institutional uses.
The majority of the lands are located in the Jockvale Golf Community Secondary Plan - Area 13 except for the southerly portion of the lands, which are included in the more recently approved Barrhaven South Community Design Plan (CDP). Both these documents provide more detailed guidance regarding the form of development of the subject lands. With respect to the Jockvale Golf Community Secondary Plan - Area 13, the site is located on the western edge of Area 13 and the lands are predominantly designated Low-Medium Density Residential with the northern portion being designated as Institutional/Park. Under the Barrhaven South CDP the subject lands are designated Low and Medium Density Residential.
Details of Proposed Zoning
The proposed zoning for Area A, as shown on Document 1, is Major Leisure Facility Zone Exception 1718 (L2[1718]H(15)), which as previously indicated, permits a range of institutional uses. An exception provision is required to permit emergency services as an additional use as a fire station is proposed for the subject site. The suffix H(15) indicates a maximum building height of 15.0 metres.
The proposed zoning for Area B, the area of the single detached dwellings, is Residential First Density Sub Zone Z (R1Z), which permits only detached dwellings. It establishes a maximum building height of 11.0 metres, a minimum lot width of 9.0 metres and minimum lot area of 240 square metres. The proposed zoning for Area C is Residential Third Density Sub Zone Z Exception 1677 (R3Z[1677]). This zone permits detached, semi-detached and multiple attached dwellings. A Planned Unit Development (PUD), which is basically defined as two or more residential use buildings on the same lot with private roads as opposed to a public right of way, is also a permitted development and is proposed for the subject lands. Exception 1677 limits the minimum setback between the vehicular entrance to a private garage or carport and an existing or planned sidewalk to 6.2 metres. It also limits the maximum distance the front wall of a private garage may extend beyond building front wall, side wall, covered porch or veranda to 2.7 metres. This provision is in place in other phases of Stonebridge and is requested to be applied to the subject lands as well.
Analysis
The proposed zones are consistent with policies as outlined in the Official Plan, the Jockvale Golf Community Secondary Plan and the Barrhaven South CDP in that the new subdivision will provide for a range of housing options and institutional uses. The proposed residential zones are consistent with the zones that currently exist in other areas of the Stonebridge community. This will ensure that the unit mix and housing design will be similar throughout Stonebridge and allow for a harmonious transition across the community. The zones are appropriate in terms of the road configuration as per the plan of subdivision and proposed location of the institutional use area in the northern section of the plan.
The Department supports the application to amend the Zoning By-law as it advances residential and other key policies in the Official Plan and provides for a compatible residential subdivision.
