RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

 

Que le Comité de l’agriculture et des affaires rurales recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de zonage 2008-250 de la Ville d’Ottawa afin de changer la désignation de zonage du 3343, rue Mustang de DR1 – Zone d’aménagement futur, sous-zone 1 à V1E[XXXr] – Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1, sous-zone E assortie d’une exception et de O1 – Zone de parc et d’espace vert à V1E[XXXr] – Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1, sous-zone E assortie d’une exception de V1E - Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1, sous-zone E à V1E[XXXr] – Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1, sous-zone E assortie d’une exception, comme il est expliqué en détail dans le Document 1 et indiqué dans le Document 2.

 

 

BACKGROUND

 

The subject property is located at the north-east limit of the Village of Navan.  It has frontage on Mustang Street to the west and Navan Road to the north.

There is an existing single family home and accessory buildings on the property.  McKinnons Creek meanders within the property from north to east. 

 

Purpose of Zoning Amendment

 

The Owner filed an application with the Committee of Adjustment on October 8, 2008 to sever the easterly part of the property along Navan Road in order to create a residential parcel.  The Committee granted provisional consent on July 22, 2009, subject to the condition that the Owner completes various studies (Slope Stability Study, Environmental Impact Assessment, etc) and provide proof that the severed parcel has been rezoned to permit a single detached dwelling and the zoning of the retained parcel modified to permit a reduced lot width.  The various studies were also required to be submitted as part of the Zoning By-law Amendment application in order for staff to support the rezoning.  The Zoning By-law Amendment application was filed on February 24, 2010.  Owing to revisions being required to the studies, the application could not be processed within the one-year period from the date of the Decision of the Committee of Adjustment.  The Owner now wishes to complete the rezoning prior to submitting a new application with the Committee of Adjustment.

 

The land to be severed, shown in Document 3, will have a frontage of 64.6 metres on Navan Road to an irregular depth and will contain a lot area of 10200 square metres.  The land to be retained, shown as Part 2, will have a frontage of 8.8 metres on Mustang Street to an irregular depth and will contain a lot area of 22,900 square metres. 

 

The intent of the Zoning By-law amendment is more specifically to rezone the residential parcel to be created from DR1 - Development Reserve Subzone 1 to V1E [XXXr] - Village Residential First Density Zone with Exception to allow for development within 30 meters from a watercourse, and to modify the easterly limit of the O1 - Open Space Zone which contains the Significant Valleylands to reflect the development limit established by a Slope Stability Report filed with the application.  The floodplain overlay affecting both the severed and retained lands will remain unchanged.  The amendment will also create an exception zone over the retained land to reflect the reduced frontage of 8.8 metres on Mustang Street.

 

 

DISCUSSION

 

The Official Plan designates the subject property as Village, where the development of residential uses in a variety of forms is encouraged.  McKinnons Creek is identified as Significant Valleylands in Annex 14 – Natural Heritage System.  Volume 2C - Village Plans designates the subject property as Village - Residential and Natural Environment Area.  

 

Rationale

 

The proposed dimensions for the severed lot are in compliance with the V1- Village Residential First Density Zone.  The remaining frontage for the retained lot will not meet the minimum lot width of 30 meters required under the VIE Zone.  Although the retained lot will lose its frontage along Navan Road, the access along Mustang Street to the existing single family home will remain unchanged.  This is due to the area to be contained within the severed lot being already physically isolated from the rest of the property by McKinnons Creek. 

 

In addition to a Slope Stability Study, the applicant has filed with the rezoning application a Hydrogeological and Terrain Analysis and Environmental Impact Statement to ensure that the proposed development is viable and that the ecological function of the Significant Valleylands will not negatively be impacted.  Although the building envelope which resulted from the recommendation of the reports/studies is limited in size, staff is satisfied that it could accommodate a privately serviced single family home.

 

 

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS

 

Both staff and the Conservation Partners are satisfied that the revised boundary of the OP - Open Space Zone will ensure that the ecological function of the Significant Valleylands will not be impacted.
