3. Part 5.0
Site Selection and Design Guidelines
be amended by replacing all of the text under the heading Part 5.1 Residential Use Antenna Systems (RUAS) with the
following:
The purpose of these guidelines is to
encourage the development of RUAS in a manner which mitigates the visual impact
on the adjacent property owners.
A proponent of an RUAS proposed on a
lot less than 1 acre in size should ensure the RUAS:
a)
If located within
the front yard:
i. Contains only a self-supporting (non-guyed) mast or
pole with a diameter no greater than 3 inches at its widest point and used solely
for a wire antenna;

is set back at
least 1.5 metres from all lot lines;
ii.
is less than 15
metres in height; and,
iii. does not consist of a guyed or lattice tower, unless
the tower abuts and is attached to the principal building;
c)
If located within
the rear yard, excluding the extension of a corner side yard into a rear yard:
i. is less than 18 metres in height; and,
ii. is set back at least 1.5 metres from all lot lines if
less than 16 metres in height; or
iii. is set back an amount equal to a quarter of its height
if 16 metres or more in height; and,
d)
A wire antenna,
not including a tower, need not comply with (a) through (c) above
e)
if located on the
roof of the principal building:
i. is less than 16 metres in height, and if 15 metres or
more in height:
1.
is located on
that half of the roof closest to the rear yard; and,
2.
is setback from
all lot lines at least 1.5 metres; or
ii. if the building is greater than 3 storeys in height,
the RUAS does not exceed a height equal to 25% of the existing height of the
building.
A
proponent of an RUAS proposed on a lot at least 1 acre, but less than 5 acres
in size should ensure the RUAS:
a) is no higher than an amount
equal to the lot width to a maximum of 29 metres;
b) if it includes a guyed or
lattice tower, is located outside of the required front yard; and,
c) is set back from all lot
lines an amount equal to a quarter of its height;
A proponent of an RUAS
proposed on a lot 5 acres or more in size should ensure the RUAS is:

lighting above five metres;

avoid placement of an RUAS within:

Features as shown on Schedules A & B of the Official Plan;

Section 4.7.4 of the Official Plan; and,
iv.
30 metres to the normal highwater mark or 15 metres to the top of the
bank of any watercourse or waterbody, whichever is greater.
Where
a proposal for an RUAS does not conform to all of the applicable guidelines
above, it should be designed so as to mitigate negative impacts on the
surrounding properties and the environment, including but not limited to
decreasing the size and visibility of the RUAS, or selecting an alternate
location on the property. To reduce the scale and visual impact mitigation
measures could include the installation of screening and landscaping, the
application of appropriate design features, colour and materials.
Non-reflective surfaces and neutral colours that blend with the surrounding
should be used.
4. Part 8.0
Public Consultation be amended by
inserting the following paragraph in Part
8.1 Public Consultation for Residential Use Antenna Systems (RUAS) after
Part 8.1f), and before the paragraph which begins Despite the notification
requirements of Part 8.1
:
In addition to the above, where a proponent expects
that an RUAS will contain medium or high white intensity lighting for the
purposes of satisfying Transport Canada requirements, the proponent must also
undertake public consultation in accordance with Part 8.2.4 Notice in Local Community Newspaper.
