REPORT
RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Committee and Agriculture and
Rural Affairs Committee recommend Council approve and adopt Official Plan
Amendment XX, as detailed in Document 1.
RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité de
l'urbanisme et le Comité de l'agriculture et des affaires rurales recommandent
au Conseil d'approuver et d'adopter la modification XX au Plan officiel, qui
est énoncée dans le document 1.
The purpose of this Official Plan amendment is to incorporate certain policy modifications which are of a technical nature. They involve no change in land use policy direction from what is contained in the current Official Plan.
The Official Plan includes a policy (Section 5.2.3 – Public Notification, policy 3) which allows technical amendments to be made to the Official Plan, or Zoning By-law, without full public notification, provided the technical amendment is limited to correcting the following anomalies:
a. where further amendments are required to fully implement an approved recommendation of City Council to amend the Official Plan or Zoning By-law;
b. to carry forward in the Zoning By-law, the regulations of the former municipalities’ zoning by-laws, where required, to accurately harmonize those regulations;
c. to amend the language of a provision so as to clarify its intent; and
d. to eliminate unnecessary redundancies and outdated references.
The policy modifications proposed in this amendment – in the form of updates to both the text and schedules – all meet the definition of technical amendments under Section 5.2.3.
DISCUSSION
The
changes proposed through this amendment are detailed in Document 1, which
includes the text of the proposed Official Plan Amendment. The recommended changes therein are grouped
in accordance with the reason for the change: Clarification following Official Plan
Amendment (OPA) 76, Correction, or Update.
The
changes described in the category “Clarification following OPA 76” are intended
to clarify wording in the plan as a result of changes that were implemented
elsewhere as a result of OPA 76.
For example, the Ontario Municipal Board ordered that a policy be added
to Section 3.1 requiring consultation with TransCanada Pipelines Limited. This change has been incorporated into the
Plan. As a result of this change, the
proposed OPA recommends adding a reference to this new policy in the table
included in Section 4.2 that summarizes the policies that apply to lands
adjacent to land-use designations shown on Schedules A and B.
The
changes described in the “Correction” category are entirely technical in
nature, and are intended simply to correct the language of the Plan, and the
designations shown on the Schedules, to ensure that they are as accurate as
possible. For example, while the Zoning
By-law uses a lower-case “h” to indicate a holding zone, the OPA, in Section
5.2.1, policy 5, currently indicates that an upper-case “H” is used for this
purpose. This is inaccurate, and is proposed
to be corrected through this OPA.
The changes described in the “Update” category include updates that have occurred outside of the Plan, but should be corrected so that the language is as accurate as possible. For example, the Plan currently makes reference to “LACAC”, the Local Architectural and Cultural Advisory Committee, but this Advisory Committee has been renamed to “OBHAC”, the Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee. The OPA described herein proposes to update this reference.
RURAL IMPLICATIONS
While this is a City-wide amendment, no specific rural implications have been identified.
CONSULTATION
In accordance with OPA policy 3 of Section 5.2.3, Public Notification, this technical amendment was not subject to the City’s Public Notification policy. Outside of the requirement to advertise in one English-language (The Ottawa Citizen) and one French-language daily newspaper (Le Droit), no further public notification was carried out.
While this amendment was not
subject to public consultation, in keeping with the policies of Section 5.5.5
of the Official Plan, all Councillors were made aware of the amendment, and
were provided a copy. No comments were received.
As this provides a technical amendment only, it is unlikely that an appeal will be brought before the Ontario Municipal Board.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
There are no direct financial implications. In the event of an appeal, funds are available within existing resources to defend Council’s position.

Introduction
Details of the Amendment
Implementation and Interpretation
PART A – THE PREAMBLE
The purpose of this technical amendment is to update the Official Plan through technical corrections, clarification and update in advance of the 2014 Official Plan Review.
This Official Plan Amendment affects the entire area of the City of Ottawa, as shown on Official Plan Schedule A: Rural Policy Plan and Official Plan Schedule B: Urban Policy Plan.
This section of the preamble to the proposed Official Plan Amendment explains why the amendments are proposed, whereas Part B includes the technical amendments that will be applied to the Official Plan, if approved. The proposed changes are grouped into three categories here, but are listed numerically in Part B.
CLARIFICATION FOLLOWING OPA 76
Section 2.3.1,
policy 21
Transportation
The proposed
amendment recommends the addition of wording to cross reference transit
right-of-way widening policies found in the note accompanying Schedule 4 –
Primary Transit Network.
Section 3.1, policies 9 and 10 Generally Permitted Uses
The proposed amendment recommends wording changes to Section 3.1 to clarify the public utilities and municipal services that policies 9 and 10, as amended by OPA 76, apply to.
Section 3.2.2 Natural Environment Areas
The proposed amendment recommends working changes to the preamble of Section 3.2.2, as amended by OPA 76, to clarify the language regarding the natural heritage system.
Section 4.2 Adjacent to Land-Use Designations
The proposed amendment recommends a change to the table included in Section 4.2, as amended by OPA 76, to identify when development proponents should engage in pre-consultation with Trans-Canada Pipelines Limited.
Section 4.7 Environmental Protection
The proposed amendment recommends changes to the table included in Section 4.7, as amended by OPA 76 to clarify the requirements for studies and assessments in order to assess development applications.
Section 4.7.3, policy 5 Erosion Prevention and Protection of Surface Water
The proposed amendment recommends including a reference to policy 4 in the text of policy 5, as amended by OPA 76, to clarify the intent of the policy.
CORRECTION
Section 5.2.1, policy 5 Implementation
Mechanisms, by Authority under the Planning
Act
The proposed amendment includes a correction to remove the words “South and East of the Canadian Shield” from the Significant Wetlands designation.
Section 5.2.1, policy 12 Implementation Mechanisms, by Authority under the Planning Act
The proposed amendment includes a correction to indicate that a holding symbol in the Zoning By-law is shown through a lower-case “h”, rather than an upper-case “H”, which is used to indicate maximum height limits.
Schedule A Rural Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to adjust the Natural Environmnent Area boundary near Constance Lake to be consistent with the boundary in the Comprehensive Zoning By-law.
Schedule B Urban Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to align the northwest boundary of the Mixed-Use Centre at Lees Avenue and Highway 417 with Brunswick Avenue to reflect its actual shape. This will require re-designating a portion of land from Mixed-Use Centre to General Urban Area.
Schedule B Urban Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to update the Urban Policy Plan to reflect current designations as a result of City ownership. This will require re-designating a portion of land from Major Open Space to General Urban Area, and a portion of land from General Urban Area to Urban Natural Features.
Schedule B Urban Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to update the Urban Policy Plan to reflect current designations as a result of City ownership. This will require re-designating a portion of land from General Urban Area to Urban Natural Features.
Schedule B Urban Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to remove the Developing Community designation from Phase 1 of the East Urban Community. This will require re-designating the lands from Developing Community to General Urban Area.
Schedule B Urban Policy Plan
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to remove the Employment Area designation from a portion of the lands municipally known as 1991 Johnston Road. This will require re-designating the lands from Employment Area to Urban Natural Features. The subject lands, which are City-owned, form part of the Greenboro Turtlehead Nature Area, and have been evaluated and identified as Urban Natural Area (UNA) 151 (Conroy Swamp).
Schedule D Primary Transit Network
The proposed amendment recommends a correction to the location of the Lester LRT station on the North-South (N-S) LRT line from the currently shown incorrect location at the future “T” junction of the N-S and airport spur line to a location, per the N-S Environmental Assessment, further west near the Lester/Uplands intersection. The amendment further recommends a change to add a transitway station along the Cumberland Transitway at the future extension of Belcourt Boulevard, which has been planned but which was had not yet been shown on Schedule D.
Schedule F Central Area/Inner City Road Network
The proposed amendment recommends a correction of the road classification from collector to arterial of a 35 metre section of Mann Avenue west of the King Edward intersection to the Nicholas overpass. The roadway is an arterial on the west side of the overpass as it continues on to join Greenfield Avenue and Main Street. Mann Avenue is only a collector east of the King Edward intersection, not west of it.
Annex 1 Road Classification and Rights-of-Way
The proposed amendment revises Table 1 – Road Right of Way Protection to reintroduce the ROW widening requirements for select rural arterial roadways that lead to, or are near, the urban boundary. These roadways were in OPA No. 76 as adopted by Council, but by error were not in the version sent to and approved by Ministry of Municipal Affairs. Similarly this amendment would add back in two 23-metre ROW village arterial segments that were omitted in OPA No. 76 and by consequence the 30-metre non-village standard, which is inappropriate, currently applies. This revision applies to portions of the following roadways: Bankfield, Carp, Eagleson, Earl Armstrong, Fallowfield, Frank Kenny, Huntmar, March, Mitch Owens, Navan, Old Montreal, Prince of Wales and Richmond.
UPDATE
Section 4.4.2.4 Small Water and Wastewater Works
The proposed amendment recommends adding a new policy to clarify the original intent of the policy, being that small water and wastewater works may be permitted for commercial uses.
Section 4.7.3, policy 11 Erosion Prevention and Protection of Surface Water
The proposed amendment recommends updating a reference, in policy 11, to the “Fill, Construction and Alteration to Waterways regulation” with the “Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses Regulation”.
Section 4.8.3, policies 2 and 3 Unstable Soils and Bedrock
The proposed amendment recommends a change to the text of policies 2 and 3, as amended by OPA 76, to be more consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2005).
Cultural Heritage
The proposed amendment includes a recommendation to update references to three cultural heritage terms, wherever they appear throughout the Official Plan. This will require the removal and replacement of the following terms:
(i) Local Architectural and Conservation Advisory Committee (LACAC) to be removed, and replaced with Ottawa Built Heritage Advisory Committee (OBHAC);
(ii) Heritage Impact Statement to be removed and replaced with Cultural Heritage Impact Statement; and
(iii) Heritage Act to be removed and replaced with Ontario Heritage Act.
Schedule D Primary Transit Network
The proposed amendment recommends minor revisions to the shown locations of two future Transitway stations south of Blackburn Hamlet as per the recently completed Environmental Assessment for the Hospital Link and Cumberland Transitway Westerly Planning Study.
Annex 1 Road Classification and Rights-of-Way
The amendment recommends a number of modifications to Table 1 – Road Right-of-Way to incorporate changes, such as:
1. correction of street names, e.g. White not Whaite, Lévis not Lewis, Blackburn Hamlet By-pass extension is now Brian Coburn Boulevard, or correction of direction, e.g. “east” of Fourth line not “west”.
2. removals or shortening of road segment descriptions, e.g. between streets A and C becomes between streets A and B. These changes are required, for example, due to a widening having been obtained, it being determined that a widening is not needed due to the existing ROW meeting the requirement, or it being determined that a lesser ROW width would suffice.
3. consolidation of adjacent segments with the same ROW widening requirement; e.g. instead of two listings A to B and B to C, indicating one listing of A to C.
4. Similar segment naming adjustment is done to reflect road classification changes.
