RECOMMANDATION
DU RAPPORT
1.
Que le Comité de
l’agriculture et des questions rurales recommande au Conseil d’approuver une
modification au Règlement de zonage de l’ancien Canton de West Carleton visant
à prolonger, pour une période de trois ans, l’utilisation temporaire à titre de
Zone rurale (RU-t) du 2234, chemin Upper Dwyer Hill, comme il est illustré au Document 1 et précisé au
Document 2, sous réserve de la condition suivante :
iii. que la construction résidentielle accessoire sera enlevée lorsqu’elle ne sera plus requise par les occupants et ce, à n’importe quel moment avant l’expiration de la période de trois ans.
BACKGROUND
The site is located at 2234 Upper Dwyer
Hill Road, west of Highway 417, north of Vaughan Side Road, and south of
Panmure Road. The site is 7.4 hectares in area with approximately 122 metres of
frontage along Upper Dwyer Hill Road. There is an existing house, barn,
detached garage, accessory residential home, and two sheds on-site. Coady Creek
runs through the site and in the surrounding area are rural and agricultural
uses.
DISCUSSION
City Council Approved Official Plan
The City Council Approved Official Plan designates
the site as General Rural. The intent of this designation is to accommodate a
variety of land uses that are appropriate for a rural location. Residential
development is to be limited where such development will not conflict with
existing agricultural and non-residential uses.
Former Regional Official Plan
The former Regional Official Plan designates
the site as General Rural. The General Rural designation encourages rural
development that is consistent with maintaining the rural character, as well as
providing a choice of rural residential housing types.
Former Township of West Carleton Official Plan
The former Township of West Carleton Official
Plan designates the site as Marginal Resource and Hazard Land (unstable
slopes). Permitted uses in the Marginal Resource designation are agriculture,
small-scale commercial, residential uses accessory to permitted uses, and
non-farm residential development.
Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment
The property is zoned RU-t (Rural - temporary use) and RU-FP (Rural – flood plain). The purpose of the proposed amendment is to extend for a period of three years, the current temporary by-law that permits an accessory residential dwelling on the subject property. The former Township of West Carleton By-law 54 of 1996 permits an accessory residential structure for the sister of the owner and will expire on October 8, 2006.
The extension of By-law 54 of 1996 is appropriate as it
is a temporary Zoning By-law amendment that does not conflict with surrounding
agriculture or rural uses. The City Council Approved Official Plan encourages
affordable and appropriate housing for all residents and diversity in the
housing supply. Garden suites are permitted subject to a rezoning as a
temporary use. The By-law extension conforms to the non-farm residential
development policies of the City Council Approved Official Plan and the former
Regional Official Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS
On Schedule K, Environmental Constraints, part of the site is within the Coady Creek flood plain. The Mississippi Conservation Authority did not raise concerns of the by-law extension and the existing accessory residential dwelling is outside of the RU-FP zone.
RURAL IMPLICATIONS
The accessory residential dwelling has not negatively affected the surrounding area and the temporary extension does not conflict with surrounding agricultural and rural uses.
