EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Assumptions and Analysis:
Four amendments are proposed to make minor policy changes and corrections to the 2003 Ottawa Official Plan. Such amendments typically follow the adoption of a new official plan by a city council, to complete the adopted document. In most cases, the proposed policy changes are minor in nature and serve to correct or clarify policies, in keeping with the overall policy direction set by Council in the plan.
The proposed changes are grouped into four amendments, depending on their scope or subject. Policy changes in response to appeals, as shown in Document 1 attached, include a new site-specific policy for the Rideau-Carleton Raceway, changes to the schedules to reflect an Ontario Municipal Board order on Moffat Farm, and revisions to the policies on land-use constraints due to aircraft noise. Other policy changes are proposed in the amendment attached as Document 2 and include a new provision for landowners' agreements to pay for infrastructure. Editorial changes and corrections are proposed in the amendment attached as Document 3, to add cross-references and renumber policies, and to create consistency with the Transportation Master Plan. Changes to Annex 1 are proposed in the amendment attached as Document 4, to correct the description of various road segments and rights-of-way.
Financial Implications:
There are no financial
implications.
Public Consultation/Input:
Consultation on the proposed
amendments followed Council's Public Notification and Consultation Policy and
also included two advertisements in daily newspapers and consultation with
individuals and organizations affected by the proposed changes.
RÉSUMÉ
Hypothèses
et analyse :
Le Comité propose
d'apporter quatre modifications au Plan officiel d'Ottawa de 2003, qui
consistent en des corrections et des modifications de politique mineures. En
général, de telles modifications font suite à l'adoption d'un nouveau plan
officiel par un conseil municipal et complètent le document adopté. Dans la
plupart des cas, les modifications de politique proposées sont mineures et servent à corriger ou à clarifier des
politiques, en conformité avec les directives cadres d'ensemble stipulées dans
le plan par le Conseil.
Les modifications
proposées sont au nombre de quatre, qui se différencient par leur portée et
leur objet. Les modifications de politique qui font suite à des appels, comme
il est indiqué dans le Document 1 ci-joint, comprennent une nouvelle politique
s'appliquant à un emplacement particulier (hippodrome Rideau-Carleton), des
modifications aux annexes afin de tenir compte d'une ordonnance émanant de la
Commission des affaires municipales de l'Ontario à l'égard de la ferme Moffat,
ainsi que des révisions aux politiques sur les restrictions en matière
d'utilisations du sol liées au bruit des avions. D'autres modifications de
politique sont proposées (Document 2 ci-joint), notamment une nouvelle
disposition visant la conclusion d'accords avec les propriétaires fonciers en
vue du paiement des infrastructures. Le Document 3 ci-joint contient des
modifications de forme et des corrections proposées afin d'ajouter des renvois
et de changer la numérotation des politiques, ainsi que d'assurer la cohérence
avec le Plan directeur des transports. Dans le Document 4 ci-joint, on propose
d'apporter des changements à l'Annexe 1 afin de corriger la description de
divers segments de route et emprises.
Répercussions
financières :
Il n'y a aucune
incidence financière.
Consultation
publique / commentaires :
Les modifications
proposées ont fait l'objet d'une consultation, conformément à la Politique du
Conseil sur les avis publics et la consultation du public, ainsi que de deux
annonces dans les quotidiens et d'une consultation avec des particuliers et des
organismes visés.
BACKGROUND
The proposed amendments are
part of the process of completing the City of Ottawa Official Plan. City Council adopted the Ottawa Official
Plan in May, 2003. Following adoption,
the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing approved the plan, subject to
modifications reviewed by Council before the minister's decision was
released. Eighty-five appeals of the
Plan were filed with the Ontario Municipal Board and the Board and City staff
are now attempting to resolve as many of these appeals as possible through
negotiation and mediation. In
particular, City staff are seeking to dismiss or reduce the scope of several
appeals of all of the Plan. Once these
appeals have been addressed, the whole of the Plan will come into effect and
replace the plans of the former municipalities. The changes proposed in these amendments have been timed to
coincide with these events, so that a complete consolidation of the Plan can be
prepared.
DISCUSSION
Policy Changes in response
to appeals of the 2003 Ottawa Official Plan
The amendment attached as
Document 1 addresses all or portions of seven appeals, identified below by the
name of the appellant and the number assigned to the appeal by the Ontario Municipal
Board and the City.
Section 2.2.2 Village
Boundaries
The proposed amendment
addresses part of an appeal on behalf of Newill (Appeal 49), seeking greater
recognition in the preamble that residential development in the rural area will
occur on country lot subdivisions. The amendment adds text to the preamble,
indicating that houses will be built on individual lots and country lot
subdivisions.
Section 3.6.7 Major Urban
Facilities
A new policy on the
Rideau-Carleton Raceway addresses an appeal on behalf of the organization
(Appeal 55) that seeks to recognize this major facility in its current location
in the rural area, notwithstanding the Plan's policies that will direct such
facilities in the future to the urban area. The proposed policy is consistent
with the Plan's policy on the Central Canada Exhibition.
Section 3.7.1 Villages
Policy 4 is amended by
adding the word "residential" to the list of permitted uses in
Villages, to make it clear that residential uses are permitted. The change addresses part of an appeal on
behalf of Charles Delahunt (Appeal 57).
Section 4.8.4. Contaminated
Sites
Proposed amendments to
policies 4 and 5 clarify when in the approval process the City will require a
Record of Site Condition and permit the City to issue building permits on a
phased basis, so that remediation can occur as part of the site
redevelopment. The proposed amendment
reflects current practice in the City and resolves in part an appeal on behalf
of Canadian Tire (Appeal 35).
Section 4.8.7 Land-Use Constraints Due to Aircraft Noise
An appeal by the Ottawa
Macdonald-Cartier International Airport Authority (Appeal 80) triggered an
amendment to these policies and extensive editorial changes to make them more
clear. The Airport Authority is in agreement
with these proposed changes. Policy
changes introduced in the amendment are as follows:
Text in the preamble to
indicate that the boundaries of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone and
Airport Vicinity Development Zone are not subject to interpretation and should
be interpreted from a map at a scale of 1:50,000.
Policy permitting infilling
of residential uses if a minor variance is required, and provision for 4120A-L
Riverside Drive where infilling has been an issue in the past.
Introduction of a composite
of the 25 NEF and NEP contours developed by the former municipalities,
homebuilders, and the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport
Authority. Use of the composite 25
NEF/NEP line reduces the area where noise studies are required for
noise-sensitive uses and reduces the boundary of the Airport Vicinity
Development Zone on Schedule K - Environmental Constraints.
The amendment also
introduces an annex that provides background information, such as NEF and NEP
contours, that is helpful in interpreting the policies. This annex is not part of the Plan, but is
provided for information purposes only.
Schedule B - Urban Policy
Plan and Volume 2-A Secondary Plan for Carleton Heights
Schedules in Volume 1 and 2
of the Plan are amended to reflect the Ontario Municipal Board order on Moffat
Farm. The Ontario Municipal Board
ordered the approval of the draft plan of subdivision, draft conditions, the
official plan amendment, zoning by-law and final approval of the plan of
subdivision through order #1550 on November 18, 2003. Amendments to the
Regional Official Plan, old Ottawa Official Plan and the secondary plan for
Carleton Heights were approved by the Board.
An amendment to Volume 1 and 2 of the 2003 Official Plan is needed to
bring the Board decision into effect in the 2003 Ottawa Official Plan, and to
address an appeal of the 2003 Plan on behalf of the National Capital Commission
and DCR Pheonix (Appeal 82). The
amendment consists of changes to Volume 1 Schedule B, from Major Open Space to
General Urban Area, and Volume 2A on the Carleton Heights Land Use Schedule.
Schedule D - Primary Transit
Network
A segment of the Future
Rapid Transit Corridor (Alignment to be Defined) is proposed to be relocated
from west of Huntmar Drive to east of Huntmar Drive, north and south of Highway
417. The proposed change addresses an appeal on behalf of the Palladium Auto
Park (Appeal 73) and is consistent with the Kanata West Concept Plan approved
by Council.
Minor Policy Changes
The amendment attached as
Document 2 proposes minor changes initiated by staff in several policy
areas.
Section 2.4.3 Watershed and
Subwatershed Plans
Text changes are proposed to
introduce an annex showing where watershed and subwatershed studies are complete
or in progress. Changes in Sections
4.7.1 and 4.7.8 describe the role of watershed and subwatershed plans in the
integrated environmental review of development applications and in
environmental impact statements.
Section 2.4.5 Greenspaces
A new policy is added to
require an Environmental Impact Statement for development applications for land
in wetlands, woodlands and ravines in complexes of 0.8 ha or larger in the
urban area, until Council approves the Urban Natural Areas Environmental
Evaluation. This policy was included in
the January, 2003 draft of the Plan and the staff report on the March, 2003 plan indicated the policy had been
relocated within the Plan. However, it
was deleted through an editing error and is restored in this amendment.
Section 2.5.5 Cultural
Heritage Resources
The requirements for a
cultural heritage impact statement are extended to include new buildings in
heritage conservation districts.
Complementary changes are also proposed in Section 4.6.1 Heritage
Buildings and Areas.
Section 3.2.1 Significant
Wetlands South and East of the Canadian Shield
Section 3.2.2 Natural
Environment Area
Section 3.2.3 Urban Natural
Features
Section 3.2.4 Rural Natural
Features
Section 3.3.1 Major Open
Space
A new policy is added in
each of these sections to indicate that where these lands are privately owned,
public use is not permitted without the consent of the owner. The Official Plan
of the former Region of Ottawa-Carleton contained a similar policy.
Section 3.6.1 General Urban
Area
Section 3.6.5 Employment
Area and Enterprise Area
The amendment corrects the
designation(s) referred to in the policies, so that Employment Areas become the
locations for industrial uses and both Employment Areas and Enterprise Areas
accommodate over 2000 jobs, a target to be met if the land is to become a Mixed
Use Centre.
Further, the amendment
proposes to delete the requirement that apartments in Enterprise Areas be five
storeys in height. Discussions related to the retail appeals may result in
recommendations to revisit these sections.
Section 4.4.2.4 Small Water
and Wastewater Works
Minor wording changes
clarify the types of uses that can be accommodated by small water and
wastewater works.
Section 4.5 Housing
The Province of Ontario has
indicated it plans to amend the Tenant Protection Act, 1997 and is consulting
on a range of issues that includes demolitions and conversions. The current
Plan policy is difficult to implement, and therefore a new policy is proposed
to study the use of demolition control as a means of maintaining the affordable
housing supply. The demolition control by-law for land within the former City
of Ottawa will remain in effect until a new by-law is prepared.
Section 4.6.3 River
Corridors
A new policy is proposed to
set minimum lot sizes for development in the General Rural Area adjacent to the
Rideau River upstream from Roger Stevens Drive, to protect the cultural
heritage of the river. The 1997 Regional Official Plan had similar policies
that were not included in early drafts of the 2003 Ottawa Official Plan because
early drafts did not contemplate country lot subdivisions.
Section 5.3 Other
Implementation Policies
A new policy is proposed to
permit Council to consider the use of private agreements among landowners to share
the costs of infrastructure.
Schedule K - Environmental
Constraints
The boundary of the Ottawa
Airport Operating Influence Zone is proposed to be amended, to delete lands at
the intersection of Albion Road and Lester Road. The Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport Authority is
in agreement with the proposed change.
Volume 2A - Secondary Plans
for Longfields, Davidson Heights Communities, South Merivale Business Park
Secondary Plan - Area 1, 2, and 3
The amendment proposes to
delete the requirement that this residential area on private services be used
only for the existing single-detached houses and allows Council to consider new
lot creation subject to the policies in Volume 1 of the Plan. These policies
include policies on land use constraints due to aircraft noise and development
on private services in public service areas.
Editorial Changes and
Corrections
The amendment attached as
Document 3 proposes corrections and editorial changes with no policy
implications. The changes include the
addition of cross-references, correction to the numbering or location of
policies, and changes to maintain consistency among the policies. Minor wording changes are proposed,
consistent with the intent of the policy, for clarification. The amendment also corrects errors in the
schedules, including the boundary of the General Urban Area near Leitrim, and
adds the names of arterial roads.
The amendment updates the
text that indicates the Official Plan will be amended to reflect any changes
arising through Council's approval of the Transportation Master Plan (approved
after the Official Plan). It also
updates the schedules to reflect changes made in the Transportation Master
Plan, particularly with respect to Schedule D - Primary Transit Network. The transportation schedules are also
corrected and updated, to show where roads have been built and are no longer
"proposed".
Volume 2 of the Plan is also
corrected by inserting a new, correct schedule to the Central Area Plan,
restoring text and correcting cross-references in the Secondary Plan for
Preston-Champagne, and correcting the text and schedules for the site-specific
policies for the Kanata Town Centre.
Corrections and minor policy
changes to Annex 1 regarding road classifications and rights-of-way
This amendment attached as
Document 4 proposes minor policy changes to Tables 1 to 11 and 13 to 14 that
list the rights-of-way to be protected for defined segments of city freeways,
urban and rural arterials, major collectors, collectors and local roads. These changes include:
Adding new road segments and
rights-of-way from the official plans of the former local municipalities that
were omitted in error. Many of these
additions are local streets (Table 14) in older urban industrial/commercial
areas and the cores of a few rural villages.
Revising the description of
road segments subject to a specified right-of-way by correcting the names of
cross-roads that are used to define the segment.
Adding segments of certain
roads and identifying a new rights-of-way, typically where the classification
of a road has changed and the tables need revision.
Applying a uniform
right-of-way requirement to the entire length of roads running along the
boundaries of former local municipalities, where each municipality had applied
a different right-of-way protection.
The amendment also
introduces new text in to Section 1 of
the Annex, to refer to pedestrians, cyclists and transit users and to
acknowledge the greenspace and public space function of roadways.
The amendment also makes
clarifications and corrections to the annex, including:
Correcting the description
of road segments
Deleting descriptions of
road segments that are duplicates or that do not belong in the table
Revising the description of
road segments to improve consistency
Correcting the description
of road segments to correspond with how the roads are shown on Schedules E or H
Correcting typographical
errors, updating the names of streets that have been renamed, and other minor
editing changes
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS
The amendment attached as
Document 2 provides additional information about the role of watershed and
subwatershed plans in the planning process.
CONSULTATION
Consultation on the
amendments followed Council's Public Notification and Consultation Policy. A summary of the amendments was sent to all
organizations that had requested notification of amendments with city-wide application
and anyone who commented on the amendment received a notice of the public
meeting. In addition, the amendments
were advertised in March and August in daily newspapers and a summary was sent to all parties who had
appealed the 2003 Ottawa Official
Plan. Appellants were also
consulted on proposed changes to address all or part of their appeal.
Several parties commented on
the proposed change to the demolition control by-law. In all cases, the parties expressing concern (the Glebe, Action
Sandy Hill, Hintonburg and the University of Ottawa) are now subject to the
demolition control by-law of the former City of Ottawa and the proposed
amendments do not change the by-law now in effect. The community organizations were concerned about possible effects
of a demolition control by-law on the conversion of dwelling units; however,
such conversions for the most part do not entail demolition and would not be
subject to a demolition control by-law.

1. Introduction
All of this part of this document entitled Part B - The Amendment, consisting of the following text and the attached maps designated as Schedules “1” to “5” to Amendment No._, constitutes Amendment No. _to the Official Plan of the City of Ottawa.
2. Details
The following changes are hereby made to the Official Plan of the City of Ottawa:
1. Section
2.2.2 Village Boundaries is hereby amended by deleting the words, “While
individual homes will continue to be built throughout the rural area on
existing lots of record,” in the third sentence of the preamble and by adding
the words, “While homes will continue to be built in the rural area on new lots
created by severance or plan of subdivision in accordance with the policies of
this plan, and on existing lots of record,” in their place.
2. Section 3.6.7 Major Urban Facilities is
hereby amended by adding a new policy 4, as follows: “Notwithstanding the above policies requiring Major
Urban Facilities to locate in the urban area, in order to recognize the Rideau
Carleton Raceway and Slots facility, located on lands legally described as part
of the South Half of Lot 24, Concession 4, Rideau Front, Gloucester, being
Parts 5 and 11 on Plan 4R-15731; Parts of lots 23 and 24, Concession 4, Rideau
Front, Gloucester, being Part 2 on Plan 4R-15731; and consolidation of various
properties: Part of lot 24, Concession
4, Rideau Front, Gloucester, Being parts 3, 4, 6, and 7 on Plan 4R-15731, an exhibition grounds for the viewing of
horse racing, gaming premises as defined in the Gaming Control Act and
related uses are also permitted in addition to those uses permitted in the
General Rural Area designation, in this location.”
3. Section 3.7.1 Villages is hereby
amended by inserting the words “residential and” after the words “will include”
in policy 4.
4. Section 4.8.4 Contaminated Sites is hereby amended by
deleting policy 4 and inserting the following as a new policy 4, “The City will
require a Record of Site Condition (RSC) as a condition of approval for plans
of subdivision and condominium, site plan or severance applications, in
accordance with the Guideline of Use at Contaminated Sites in Ontario (1997),
confirming that the site is suitable or has been made suitable for the proposed
use, in the following circumstances:
a) the site is proposed for residential development or for a
use more sensitive to contamination or contaminants than the present or former
land use; and
b) available information indicates the site is or may be
contaminated, or is within 500 metres, or other influence area, of an active
landfill site.
Where an RSC
has been made a condition of City's approval, a building permit may be issued
in regard to a site on a phased basis to allow for site investigation and
remediation. An RSC must be completed to the satisfaction of the City and
acknowledged by the Ministry of Environment.”
5. Section 4.8.4 Contaminated Sites is hereby amended by
deleting policy 5 and inserting the following as a new policy 5, “For instances
where contamination extends onto a City right-of way and completion of a Record
of Site Condition is not possible, the City may issue a building permit on a
phased basis contingent on the execution and implementation of an Off-Site
Management Agreement or Remedial Action Plan to remediate the right-of-way and
development site, to the satisfaction of the City.”
6. Section
4.8.7 Land-Use Constraints Due to Aircraft Noise is hereby amended by deleting
all of section 4.8.7 and inserting the following:
The Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport as well as the airports at Carp and Rockcliffe support the economic development of the National Capital Region and therefore warrant protection from incompatible development. At the same time, new communities must be planned and then built according to appropriate building standards so that noise-sensitive land uses are protected from the adverse effects of aircraft noise. Noise-sensitive land uses are housing, institutional uses, public facilities and outdoor recreation spaces. Specific examples include, but are not limited to, campgrounds, hospitals, places of worship, schools, day care facilities, long-term care facilities, libraries, auditoriums and community centres. Hotels and motels are also noise-sensitive land uses, but they are treated differently from other such uses because they benefit from convenient access to the airport and the impact of noise on people is reduced by the short duration of most visits.
The types of land uses that are compatible with noise levels in the vicinity of airports are determined through reference to federal guidelines based on the Noise Exposure Forecast (NEF) and Noise Exposure Projection (NEP) system. This system uses noise contours to graphically display the expected level of annoyance within specific areas around airports. These noise contours have been used in this Plan to define the boundaries of areas that are affected by the airport and to set policies for these areas. These areas include Greenbelt lands and urban and rural areas; the policies regarding airport noise are to be considered in addition to policies for these areas elsewhere in this Plan.
The boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone is based on the 30 NEF and NEP contours. Within this area, noise-sensitive development is generally not permitted, although infill and redevelopment may occur in specific areas within the zone in keeping with the policies below. The boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone has been drawn to coincide with physical features such as roads, creeks, rail lines, and lot lines where possible. The boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone, shown on Schedule K, is not subject to interpretation and its precise location should be read from a map at a scale of 1:50 000 available from the City of Ottawa and the Ottawa-Macdonald Cartier International Airport Authority.
The boundary of the Airport Vicinity Development Zone is based on the boundary set for the Ottawa International Airport Zoning regulations and the composite of the 25 NEF and NEP contours. The composite of the NEF and NEP contours has also been drawn to coincide with physical features such as roads, creeks, rail lines, and lot lines where possible. Like the boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone, the boundary of the Airport Vicinity Development Zone is shown on Schedule K and is not subject to interpretation.
Annex 9 shows the boundaries of the composite 25 NEF and NEP contours and the Ottawa International Airport Zoning regulations, and illustrates how the two combine to make up the boundary of the Airport Vicinity Development Zone. Noise-sensitive uses are permitted between the 25 NEF/NEP composite and the boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone, provided the noise is attenuated. Noise-sensitive uses are permitted outside the boundary of the 25 NEF/NEP composite without attenuation, although the Ottawa International Airport Zoning regulations may apply.
Policies
1. Land impacted by the operation
of the airport is identified on Schedule K as the Ottawa Airport Operating
Influence Zone and the Airport Vicinity Development Zone. These zones have been identified in order to
protect the economic potential of the city’s airports as well as protect
residents from the adverse impacts of unacceptable levels of noise. Review of development applications in these
zones will be guided by the Transport Canada manual TP1247E - Land Use in
the Vicinity of Airports and the Ministry of Environment Noise
Assessment Criteria in Land Use Planning LU-131, as amended periodically.
2. A detailed noise control study
may be required for any development proposal at or above the 25 NEF/ NEP
contour. A detailed noise control study
includes, but is not limited to:
a) Consideration
of all airport noise sources, including noise produced by aircraft run-ups and
taxiing, the reverse thrust noise produced by landing aircraft, and helicopter
noise;
b) Consideration
of noise from sources other than the airport, including roads, rail lines and
industry;
c) Details of the assessment methods, results, and recommendations
for noise control measures, and provisions for how the measures will be secured
through the conditions of approval of plans of
subdivision and condominium, site plan or severance applications.
3. Within the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence
Zone, designated on Schedule K, no development of residential and other
noise-sensitive land uses will be permitted above the 35 NEF and 35 NEP contour
lines, whichever is more restrictive.
4. Within the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence
Zone, no development of residential and other noise-sensitive land uses will be
permitted between the boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone
and the 35 NEF and 35 NEP contour lines (whichever is more restrictive),
except:
a) The redevelopment of existing residential and other
noise-sensitive land use;
b) Infilling of new residential uses;
c) Hotels and motels.
5. Further to policy 4,
redevelopment of existing residential and other noise-sensitive land uses and
infilling of new residential uses will only be permitted where the development:
a) Does not
require the approval of a plan of subdivision, or amendment to the zoning
by-law or amendment to this Plan; and
b) Is on a
new lot created by a severance where the severance is permitted in the zoning
by-law existing on May 14, 2003 and is in accordance with all the provisions of
the Plan; or
c) Is on a
lot existing and fronting on a public road that is maintained year-round,
provided that the lot was created under the Planning
Act by May 14, 2003, and
the use is permitted in the zoning by-law and is in accordance with all the
provisions of this Plan. This policy is
not to be interpreted so as to require a change in the provisions of the zoning
by-law for 4120A-L Riverside Drive in effect on May 14, 2003.
6. Further to policy 4, a detailed noise control study will be required
for any redevelopment of existing residential and other noise-sensitive land
uses and infilling of new residential uses. Development of hotels or motels
will only be permitted where it can be demonstrated that such land uses are
highly desirable in terms of the location and the attributes of the site.
7. Within the Airport Vicinity
Development Zone, noise-sensitive uses will be permitted between the 25 NEF/NEP
composite and the boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zone,
subject to the policies elsewhere in this Plan, provided appropriate noise
attenuation measures are in place.
Applications for noise-sensitive uses require either:
a) A detailed
noise control study that includes recommendations for noise control measures to
meet provincial criteria, as outlined in LU-131 Noise Assessment Criteria in
Land Use Planning; or,
b) Application
of the Prescribed Measures to Address Airport Noise prepared in July,
1998 by area municipalities, homebuilders and the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier
International Airport Authority. These
measures apply only to typically-built residential tract housing.
8. Proposed development will comply with the Ottawa International Airport Zoning regulations, enacted under the Aeronautics Act, regarding the location and height limits of objects in the vicinity of the airport. The zoning regulations can be examined at the Land Registry Office.
9. Proposed developments will also comply with Transport Canada’s manual TP 1247 – Land-Use in the Vicinity of Airports, including:
a) protection of navigational aids and telecommunications systems at the airport through attention to building height, orientation and use of metallic substances that could interfere with these systems;
b) restrictions on land uses that could attract birds and wildlife and pose a hazard to aircraft operations.
1. No noise-sensitive uses will be permitted
above the 30 NEF and 30 NEP contour lines.
2. Development applications that propose noise-sensitive land uses between the 25 NEF and 25 NEP and the 30 NEF and 30 NEP contours require a detailed noise control study. ”
7. Schedule B – Urban Policy Plan is
hereby amended by changing the designation of a portion of the plateau
lands at 1709 Prince of Wales Drive, and a portion of a 3.6 ha (9 acre) parcel
to the north, from Major Open Space to General Urban Area, as shown on Schedule
1 attached.
9. Schedule K – Environmental Constraints – is hereby amended by changing the boundary of the Airport Vicinity Development Zone and the Airport Operating Influence Zone, as shown in Schedule 3 attached.
10. The Annexes of the Ottawa Official Plan
are hereby amended by inserting a new Annex 9 Land-Use Constraints Due to
Airport Noise after Annex 8, as shown in Schedule 4 attached. The Plan is further amended by renumbering
the annexes in the Plan and revising references in the text as required.
Volume 2A – Secondary Plans
a) A portion of the plateau
lands at 1709 Prince of Wales Drive is changed from District/Community Park and
Major Open Space – Conservation Area, to Residential Area – Low Density,
b) A portion of the plateau
lands at 1709 Prince of Wales Drive is changed from District/Community Park and
Major Open Space – Conservation Area, to Neighbourhood Park, and
c) A portion of the 3.6-ha
(9 acre) parcel to the north is changed from Major Open Space – Conservation

Create a vibrant, attractive
core that meets the needs of a maturing City.
OBJECTIVES/DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Provide a mix of generally
higher density and higher order, residential, commercial, civic, institutional,
cultural and employment uses, especially in the Main Street area, which will
populate, animate and contribute to an urban experience that complements
Kanata’s earlier developments.
Provide opportunities and
facilities, which respond to the needs of a maturing City with a greater mix of
ages, incomes and cultural backgrounds.
Ensure that the development
form responds to the human scale and encourages interaction by creating an
interesting and safe pedestrian environment with features such as weather
protection, views and lighting.
5.7.3.2 GOAL
Create an enhanced public
realm, recognising the permanence of these decisions.
OBJECTIVES/DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Ensure that the locations of
streets recognise their permanent contribution to the public realm as the urban
skeleton for the built form, the public viewscape, a place for the urban forest
and as a conduit for people via their chosen mode of transportation.
Reserve key locations that will
communicate Civic pride and provide a prominent place for public art and
monuments.
5.7.3.3 GOAL
Incorporate flexibility and
efficiency into the Town Centre Plan in order to respond to future
uncertainties.
OBJECTIVES/DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Ensure that block sizes and
orientation are based on a modified grid and are capable of development and
eventual redevelopment in the very distant future - a recognition that cities
constantly evolve. Ensure that facilities perform a multiplicity of functions
wherever possible, for example:
-
storm water ponds may also serve as visual buffers
-
planting areas are visual buffers as well as
environmental filters
Capitalise on the Town Centre’s unique opportunity within Kanata for
direct access to the future Transitway system.
5.7.3.4 GOAL
Integrate natural and built
elements in a form that reflects Kanata, the City in the country.
OBJECTIVES/DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Encourage development that
responds sensitively to the topography and other natural features of the site.
Preserve a large open space
opportunity near Main Street.
Create a network of smaller
parks which punctuate the major pedestrian route and which provide meeting
places and a reminder of our natural heritage.
Strive to minimise the
disruptive impact of Highway 417 on residential uses. Encourage businesses to take advantage of highly visible areas
adjacent to Highway 417.
5.7.3.5 GOAL
Develop the appropriate
infrastructure to serve the Town Centre.
OBJECTIVES / DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Plan and build a street network
that meets the needs of people first, recognising that these public spaces do
more than move private automobiles.
Create effective pedestrian linkages between
activity centres, keeping walking distances reasonable.”
3. Implementation
The implementation of this
Amendment to the Official Plan shall be in accordance with the policies of the

1. Introduction

2. Details
The following changes are hereby made to the Official Plan of the City of Ottawa:
1. Annex 1, Section 1.0 Classification Summary is hereby
amended by adding the following paragraph after the first paragraph under
“Arterial Roads”:
“Arterial roads function
as major public corridors in the urban communities and villages they
traverse. They not only accommodate car
and truck traffic, but also serve pedestrians, cyclists and public transit
buses. The roadway and its boulevard
are therefore designed to meet the needs of these users through the provision,
where appropriate, of such features as sidewalks, cycling lanes, and bus stops
and shelters. In parts of the urban
area and villages additional roadside features include: street furniture,
pedestrian-scale lighting, and trees and other landscaping. This greenery provides visual appeal, summer
shade and a defining sense of the linear nature of these travel corridors. The planning of land uses and the local road
network on lands adjacent to arterial roads may occur in a manner that can
reduce the need for noise attenuation barriers or fencing along extensive
lengths of roadway.”
2. Annex 1, Section 1.0 Classification Summary is hereby
amended by adding the following paragraph after the first paragraph under
“Major Collector and Collector Roads”:
“Collector roads are the principal streets in
urban and village neighbourhoods and are used by local residents, delivery and
commercial vehicles, transit and school buses, cyclists, and pedestrians. The reduced speed and volumes of traffic on
collector roads, compared with arterial roads, make collectors more
accommodating for cyclists and pedestrians.
Tree plantings, bus stops, community mailboxes and other streetscape
features create roadways that are integrated with their neighbourhood.”
3. Annex 1, Section 1.0 Classification Summary is hereby
amended by adding the following sentence at the end of the first paragraph
under “Local Roads”:
“Pedestrians and cyclists are major users of
local roads, starting or finishing their journeys along these roads.”

hereby amended by deleting the words

is hereby amended by deleting the sentence “In all cases the widening is taken

paragraph and replacing it with the following:
“Except as specifically indicated otherwise in Tables 1 to 14 of this Annex, land for a road widening will be taken equally from both sides of a road, measured from the centreline in existence at the time the widening is required by the City. The centreline is a line running down the middle of a road surface, equidistant from both edges of the pavement. In determining the centreline, paved shoulders, bus lay-bys, auxiliary lanes, turning lanes and other special circumstances are not included in the road surface.”
6. Annex 1, Section 2.0 Rights-of-Way, is
hereby amended by deleting the last two sentences from policy 1 that read “In
the interim, the ROW requirements for rural arterial and collector roads as
shown in the Tables 4 to 13 in this annex will apply. If a road is identified on Schedules G and H but at this time
does not appear in the tables in this annex, the ROW will be 20.0 metres.” and
replacing them with the following:
“In the interim, the ROW requirements for collector roads in the rural area as shown in the Tables 4 to 13 in this annex will apply. If a collector road is identified on Schedules G and H but is not listed in the tables in this annex, the ROW will be 20.0 metres.”

AMENDMENTS TO THE 2003
OTTAWA OFFICIAL PLAN -- MINOR POLICY CHANGES AND CORRECTIONS
MODIFICATIONS AU PLAN OFFICIEL
D’OTTAWA DE 2003 –MODIFICATIONS DE POLITIQUE MINEURES ET CORRECTIONS
ACS2004--DEV-POL-0035 city wide
Acting Chair Holmes began by reading a statement required under the Planning Act, which advised that anyone who intended to appeal this proposed Official Plan Amendment to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB), must either voice their objections at the public meeting, or submit their comments in writing prior to the amendment being adopted by City Council. Failure to do so could result in refusal/dismissal of the appeal by the OMB.
N. Lathrop, J.
Moser, Judy
Flavin, Planner, Carol Christensen,
Steven Boyle and T. Marc appeared before the
Committee with respect to departmental report dated 12 July 2004.
The Committee
heard from the following delegations:
Joe Gulli provided a comprehensive written submission that
was circulated to the Committee and is held on file with the City Clerk. Mr. Gulli objected to Volume 2A - Secondary
Plans for Longfields, Davidson Heights Communities, South Merivale Business
Park Secondary Plan - Area 1, 2, and 3.
The amendment proposes to delete the requirement that this residential
area on private services be used only for the existing single-detached houses
and allows Council to consider new lot creation subject to the policies in
Volume 1 of the Plan. He did not object
to the whole policy, but only the part that dealt with the
airport..."These policies include policies on land use constraints due to
aircraft noise and development on private services in public service
areas." He asked for a severance
on his property based on the facts presented in his submission.
As a result of
the presentation, Councillor Cullen received confirmation that the policy changes
did not affect the status of Mr. Gulli’s property. The Councillor suggested Mr. Gulli had an issue with severance
that should come before the OMB. Mr.
Gulli explained he was asking that additional changes be implemented that
stipulate that because of Transport Canada Guidelines there are alternatives
with respect to certain properties. He
reiterated the OP did not take into consideration that Noise Exposure Forecast
(NEF) contours are out of date.
In response to
A/Chair Holmes, Ms. Flavin clarified that the issue that impacted Mr. Gulli is
the fact his lot is located above the 35 NEF line in the OP, which does not
permit residential development. It also
sets restrictions below the 35 out to the edge of the Airport Operation
Influence Zone (AOIZ). Responding
further, Ms. Flavin elucidated the Ottawa Airport Authority (Authority) has the
authority to set the NEF/Noise Exposure Projection (NEP). The City is using current NEF/NEP contours
in effect through the Authority, but could not say what data that is based
upon. Mr. Gulli posited it states it is
based on 1994 data.
Annette
Nicholson, Ottawa Airport Authority, was available to respond to
any questions the Committee might have.
A/Chair Holmes asked if the City was using 1994 data.
Ms. Nicholson explicated that the line of the AOIZ is based on the most current
contours available and the Authority has been referring to the 1994 NEF
contours. She explained there are two
contours at each of the numerical lines – 35, 30, 25 and the NEP is based upon
a projection to the year 2014. This
will be reviewed. Responding further,
Ms. Nicholson stated the NEF line will very likely be looked at in the next few
years.
Barbara Barr,
GACC, provided a written submission in opposition that was circulated and is
held on file with the City Clerk. Ms.
Barr’s concerns centred on: Official Plan Section 2.2.2 Village
Boundaries; Official Plan Section 4.4.2 Private Water and Wastewater Servicing;
and, Official Plan Section 4.2 Adjacent to Land Use Designations. Ms. Barr also stated that GACC was
pleased to see wording changes that clarify and strengthen the natural
environment sections of the OP.
Councillor Cullen
referred to the suggestion by the delegation, OP S. 4.2, p. 132, No. 18, and
asked if there was a problem to add the words suggested. Ms. Flavin responded that staff is
recommending to restore a policy reviewed as part of the OP review through the
Committee and the public consultation process.
Through an editing error staff dropped that policy from the Plan as it
was adopted and it is simply brought forward as recommended. There was discussion at the time of
Committee consideration on including adjacent greenlands and fields and the
decision was made not to include those words, but she would need to verify
that.
Murray Chown,
Novatech, addressed the issue of airport noise and in particular the definition of
the AOIZ as presently described in the OP.
He was retained by the City to represent the position of this Committee
and Council with respect to the rezoning of 7 Deakin at the OMB. The Authority appeared before the Committee
expressing strong opposition to that rezoning.
Staff recommended against the rezoning, but the Committee saw fit to
support the rezoning as did Council.
Preparing for that Hearing, he spent considerable time reviewing the
AOIZ and how it was established. He
referred to p. 110 of the report, first paragraph, under 4.8.7, the definition
of noise uses; the current OP and the amendment before the Committee includes
places of worship as a noise sensitive use.
The case presented at the OMB stated the church at 7 Deakin was not a
noise sensitive use. Mr. Chown brought
to the Committte’s attention the first sentence of the last paragraph which
states “The boundary of the Ottawa Airport Operating Influence Zoning is based
on the 30 NEF and NEP contours.” This
has been and was interpreted in the mid-90’s to take the worst of the two
contours and used to define the AOIZ.
He circulated a plan that depicted the 1994 NEF in the area of Prince of
Wales and Hunt Club and highlighted the 7 Deakin and 44 Rideau Heights Drive,
which he represented. The map
illustrates both properties fall within the 30 NEF contours and therefore
within the AOIZ boundary as defined in the OP.
He also provided the NEP 2014 mapping.
Both 7 Deakin and 44 Rideau Heights Drive fall well beyond the 30 NEP
contour. It begs the question as to why
the City was forced to defend their position at the OMB with respect to the
re-zoning of 7 Deakin. His current
client is in the same situation.
Although the
report before Committee is some minor tweaking of the OP, as approved by
Council, both in terms of wording and mapping, he posited the first presenter
asked and he would ask that the NEF/NEP contours be updated sooner rather than
later. It was his opinion the AOIZ
boundary, as currently reflected in the OP, greatly exaggerates the noise
influence from the Airport. It is
unfair to a number of property owners.
The Rideau Heights property is coming forward with applications to
change OP designations and zoning to allow for residential development, but the
first hurdle is that it is presently within the AOIZ and he opined the mapping
is out of date and needs to be dealt with swiftly. He encouraged the Committee to adopt a resolution or Motion
asking staff to work with the Authority to produce updated NEF/NEP mapping.
David Jeanes,
Transport 2000, provided a written submission of his comments in opposition, which is
held on file with the City Clerk.
Briefly, he commented on the following:
·
In item 7 “Champagne North” has been changed to “City Centre”.
·
The maps contained in the report showing the Rapid Transit Network are
much too small.
·
The change to the Rapid Transit Corridor @ Palladium, Schedule 2, takes a
nicely curved ROW and puts in two sharp-angled turns
·
The cross river links are not reflected on the map.
·
Deletion of the north/south light rail potential future branch south of
Leitrim to Armstrong, Schedule 5, p.143
·
The Inter-provincial study will show that it makes sense to extend light
rail north to the Casino and if that is done, the Ontario Government will
fundamentally object if no similar plan is possible at the south end to serve
the Rideau Carleton Slots. That may
result in a political impasse over two natural extensions of light rail.
As a result of
the presentation, Councillor Cullen questioned why the north/south rail and
link into Barrahaven was deleted. Mr.
Lathrop explained that the link to Barrhaven is not being removed and,
referring to p. 143, clarified that Councillor Cullen was possibly referring to
the extension, which goes south towards Osgoode along the rail. The two arrows are meant to represent the
extension on the righthand side. He and
Mr. Jeanes had an opportunity to discuss this matter prior to the meeting. Staff illustrated the deletion on the map to
reflect Council commitments and policies currently in place. But, he did agree with Mr. Jeanes that it is
Council policy to support access to the Slots, notwithstanding access to the
Ex. On principle, Mr. Jeanes has a good
point and he would suggest if the Committee were to accept the staff report,
save and except for that particular item, he would not have any objection.
In terms of the
Transportation Master Plan (TMP) and the Transit Study, the intent behind those
two studies was to show not only what would happen within the 20 year time
frame of this plan, but also potentially beyond and that is why arrows are
depicted as conceptual locations for extensions. Mr. Jeanes is quite correct in noting there is a commitment that
in the Transit Study the City will be looking at linkages across the river,
including the Prince of Wales bridge.
He shared with Transport 2000 the keenness in the potential of extending
light rail across the Prince of Wales bridge, but it should be done
comprehensively. That is why staff is
including all potential locations at all potential bridge sites, including the
Prince of Wales crossing. Staff will
note Mr. Jeanes and Transport 2000 concerns to ensure the City proceeds with
the Transit Study together with Gatineau and the NCC. Having received that information, Councillor Cullen indicated he
would present the following Motion: That the deletion to Schedule 5 regarding
the “Future Rapid Transit Corridor Alignment to be defined” extending south of Leitrim be retained.
Janet Bradley was present to
respond to any questions, if necessary, on behalf of Canada Lands
Corporation.
Pamela Sweet,
FoTenn Consultants, representing Rideau Carleton Raceway, reiterated the
comments expressed by Mr. Jeanes and Mr. Lathrop’s response. The Raceway basically supported the
re-wording regarding the Racetrack, which is not an issue, but there was a
concern with the removal of that future transit link. The Raceway would support the idea of having it remain in the OP
as indicated in the forthcoming Motion from Councillor Cullen.
Moved by
Councillor A. Cullen:
That the deletion to Schedule 5 regarding
the “Future Rapid Transit Corridor Alignment to be defined” extending south of
Leitrim be retained.
CARRIED with
Councillor G. Hunter dissenting.

CARRIED
Councillor Cullen
referred to the request by Mr. Chown to speak to the Authority on updating the
Noise Contours and asked if direction could be given to staff. Mr. Lathrop undertook to ask the Authority
when it was anticipated the contours will be updated.
Councillor Hunter
followed on that matter and asked if there was another way to obtain the most
updated contours without going through the Authority. In his experience, the Authority appears at Committee on behalf
of maintaining the NEP and AOIZ as wide as possible and to keep property value
in its vicinity depressed and to discourage development, which isn’t their own,
in the airport area. Asking the
Authority to be responsible for updating the AOIZ is akin to “asking a wolf to
look after the henhouse”. Is there
another venue to achieve what is fair not only to the Airport, but to the
citizens and property owners in the environs?
Ms. Christensen explained it is the Authority’s responsibility to update
that mapping. What is illustrated in
the OP is the most recent. A/Chair
Holmes asked if it was possible to receive comments from Transport Canada. Councillor Hunter posited it is important,
on behalf of the City’s property owners, citizens and the Airport to ensure the
most up to date information is available.
It should be done in concert with Transport Canada, not the
Airport. Mr. Lathrop affirmed the Councillor
made a good point and the Airport is no longer considered a public entity. Staff would take that as an undertaking and
will proceed to identify exactly how Noise Cones are defined and identified in
the future through Transport Canada and report back to the Committee.
The Committee
approved the recommendations as amended.
That Planning and Environment Committee recommend
that Council approve:
1. an Official Plan Amendment to make minor policy changes in
response to appeals of the 2003 Ottawa Official Plan, as shown in Document 1
attached,
