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 visant à changer le zonage du 133, croissant Hidden Lake et du 10, ruelle
Charlie’s de « DR1 », Zone d’aménagement futur, sous-zone 1, et de « EP3 »,
Zone de protection environnementale, sous-zone 3, à « V1N », Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1,
sous-zone (N), à « V1N-[565r]) », Zone résidentielle de village de densité 1, sous-zone (N) dotée d’une

The subject lands are located on the east side of Hidden Lake Crescent and at the ends of Charlie’s Lane and Juanita Avenue, in the north end of the Village of Carp. The sites are addressed as 133 Hidden Lake Crescent and 10 Charlie’s Lane, and identified respectively as Parcel A and B in Document 1.
This is an application to rezone 133 Hidden Lake Crescent and 10 Charlie's Lane from Development Reserve Subzone 1 (DR1) and Environmental Protection Subzone 3 (EP3) to Village Residential First Density Subzone (N) (V1N), Village Residential First Density Subzone (n) Exception 565r (V1N-[565r]) and Village Residential First Density Subzone (N) Exception 727r (V1N-[727r]), in order to facilitate development of the approved draft plan of subdivision.
Existing Zoning
The property is currently zoned Development Reserve Subzone 1 (DR1) and Environmental Protection Subzone 3 (EP3) pursuant to By-law 2008-250. The DR1 designation is intended to recognize future village development areas and limit land uses to those that would not preclude development. The EP3 zone protects the environmental resources on the sites.
As a result of the approved plan of subdivision, the lands will be rezoned to appropriate zones to permit development and to protect environmental features on the site. The lands adjacent to the ANSI boundary will be zoned V1N[565r] for the developable portion and V1N[727r] for the area within the ANSI, in order to ensure no future development takes place on the ANSI lands. The remainder of the lands within the plan of subdivision will be rezoned to a similar designation afforded Phases 1 and 2; that being a V1N zone. A detailed description of the zone breakdown can be seen in Document 1.
The subject lands are designated as “Village” on Schedule A of the Official Plan. Section 3.7.1 of the Official Plan outlines the policies for the “Village” designation. The Plan directs the majority of development in rural areas to villages. The intention of this designation is to provide for a wide range of land uses for the needs of the rural community, and to ensure that villages remain distinctly rural in character and scale.
The intensity and distribution of land uses within villages is determined in the context of the Community Design Plan (CDP) for the village, and the ability to support the development on private or public services. The proposed subdivision has been designated for development in the CDP and has been allocated the appropriate amount of public servicing capacity. The Official Plan also limits the form and scale of development according to the available servicing. The proposed development’s low-density form and scale are compatible with the available servicing for the Village.
The Community Design Plan for the Village of Carp (CDP) offers a more detailed description of land use designations than the Official Plan, and reflects the community’s vision for the future of the village. Parcel A is designated as “Residential – Ground Oriented Multi Unit” in the CDP. Parcel B is designated as “Residential – One and Two Unit Dwellings”. Detached homes are a permitted use in both residential designations, and the proposed zoning conforms to these designations.
A portion of both sites is also designated as
Open Space. This area includes lands in the Carp Hills ANSI, which will be
protected from development through conditions in the draft plan of subdivision
and the implementing Zoning By-law.
In accordance with the policies of Section
3.2.2 of the Official Plan and Section 2.3 (8) of the Carp CDP, an
Environmental Impact Statement was prepared in 2000 as part of the initial
subdivision application. The EIS took
into account the location of the ANSI boundary and the Provincially Significant
Wetland northeast of Charlie’s Lane.
The EIS recommended ways to mitigate the
effects of development that could be implemented through subdivision conditions
and zoning. In addition, the report
documented the impacts and mitigation required to protect the ecological
function of the wetland and adjacent lands, and the headwater functions of Carp
River tributaries.
As a result of the direction of the approved plan of subdivision, lots
adjacent to the ANSI boundary will be divided into two zones. These lots have been designed to ensure
there is spacing for a building envelope that will be set back from the ANSI to
reduce any negative effects. The rear
portion of the lot, which is located in the ANSI, will be zoned “Village
Residential First Density Subzone (N) Exception 727r (V1N-[727r])”. This zone prohibits all buildings and
structures of any kind including, but not limited to, a deck, gazebo, shed,
garage, workshop, septic system, well, swimming pool, change house, pump house,
stairs and any structural landscaping.
The front area of the lot will be zoned “Village Residential First
Density Subzone (N) Exception 565r (V1N-[565r])”. This area represents the
developable portion of the lot. A
detached dwelling will be permitted on a minimum lot area of 400 metres
sq. It is noted that where a V1N-[565r]
zone abuts a V1N-[727r] zone, as in this case, the lands may be used in tandem
when calculating the minimum lot area and setback provisions. These lands are more specifically described
on the approved draft subdivision plan as Lots 1 to 11, inclusive and Lots 47,
48 and 51 to 57, inclusive (see Document 2).
The remaining lands outside the influence of the ANSI feature will be
zoned “Village Residential First Density Subzone (N) (VIN). Similarly to theV1N-[565r] zone, a detached
dwelling will be permitted but on a minimum lot area of 540 metres square. These lands are identified on the draft
approved plan of subdivision as Lots 12 to 46, inclusive and Lots 49, 50, 58,
59 and 60. The required minimum front,
side and rear yards including the maximum lot coverage and building heights are
the same for both zones.
The approved plan of subdivision will allow development compatible with the surrounding area. The draft approved plan conforms to the Official Plan and the Community Design Plan for the Village of Carp. The conditions of draft approval were supported by the applicant and the Ward Councillor. All public concerns and technical issues raised during the subdivision process were addressed; no objections were received. This Zoning By-law amendment implements the approved draft plan of subdivision through the introduction of appropriate zones to permit development and to protect environmental features as detailed in the EIS.
Plan of Subdivision (D07-16-01-0012 formerly OLV2001-0012) draft approved on August 14, 2009.
An Environmental Impact Statement and Phase 1 Environmental Assessment were completed by the applicant as part of the original approval of the plan of subdivision. The lands within the ANSI will be rezoned to prohibit buildings and structures of any kind.
The proposed Zoning By-law amendment will facilitate additional residential units in the Village of Carp. The proposal is consistent with the documents, which guide the development of the Village.
Notice of this application was carried out in accordance with the City's Public Notification and Consultation Policy.
The subdivision
and zoning amendment application were presented at a public meeting held on
October 14, 2004. All public concerns
raised during the subdivision process were addressed and objections received.

There are no direct financial implications associated with this report.
