Existing Official Plan Policies • Residential Low Density

permitted provided that these forms are compatible with the scale, urban design and community features of the neighbourhood

Existing Zoning • R3.1 (Low Density) Zone

-permits single-detached dwellings only

Proposed Development • Construct 23 townhouse units and 1 semi-detached unit,

comprising a total of 25 residential units • All units will front onto a private condominium roadway • Road access will be from Maplehill Drive which is currently a

cul-de-sac • 12 visitor parking spaces will be provided • Sidewalks will be provided on one side of the private road as

you enter the site and adjacent to the visitor parking areas • There will be a trail connection to the existing trails

Official Plan Amendment • Re-designate lands from Residential Low Density to

Residential Medium Density

Justification? According to OP Policies: -supply owner occupied and rental housing to meet existing and future needs (2.1b) -encourage new residential development and residential intensification within the urban boundary (2.2.2.1a) -encourage integration of wide range of housing types and discourage large concentrations of higher density residential blocks (2.2.2.1g)

Summary of Supporting Studies • Noise Feasibility Study (dBA Environmental Services) -ventilation and warning clause requirements for specific units are not required -minimum building requirements of the Ontario Building Code for all lots will satisfy Ministry of Environment criteria for noise control • Tree Inventory & Preservation Plan Report (Kuntz Forestry

Consulting) -25 trees are evident- 19 trees are required to be removed -all other trees will be saved provided appropriate tree protection measures are installed prior to construction

Summary of Supporting Studies continued…

• Functional Servicing/Stormwater Management Report (MCI) -existing sanitary sewers, storm sewers and watermains are in place to fully service the development -new service connections will be constructed to meet Region and City standards • Traffic Brief (MCI) -increase volume on Maplehill Drive- additional 17 AM trips and 17 PM trips -traffic on Dynes Road will be reduced as the development will generate fewer trips than the existing school which is accessed from Dynes Road -the additional traffic will not generate significant volumes for any improvements to be made

Proposed Conceptual Plan
