MOTION
Moved by Councillor A. Cullen
Seconded by Councillor J. Stavinga
That Council approve amendments to the former
City of Ottawa Zoning By-law, 1998 [By-law Number 93-88] to repeal By-law
Number 2005-18 and to change the zoning for the area known as Queensway Terrace
North (QTN) to implement new parking provisions, as shown on Document 1 and as
detailed in Document 2, as amended by the following:
WHEREAS the information provided in the Discussion
section of staff report ACS2006-PGM-POL-0069 stated the purpose of the proposed
zoning amendment is to permit front yard parking within QTN in those situations
where there is no alternative to providing a legal parking space under the
Zoning By-law;
AND WHEREAS the intent of the establishment of zoning
requirements with respect to the conditions in which front yard parking may
occur ensures appropriate and consistent design of these parking areas,
avoiding large paved areas and excluding the most offensive types of front yard
parking;
AND WHEREAS the report stated that the development
standards in QTN area should permit front yard parking subject to specific
development standards and only where the interior side yards are both less than
three metres and are not capable of being developed for parking;
AND WHEREAS this intent is not clearly
reflected in “Document 2” Details of Recommended Zoning of the said report;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Details of
Recommended Zoning attached to Staff Report ACS2006-PGM-POL-0069, setting out
the proposed Zoning By-law amendment, be revised to amend for the purposes of
clarification the following:
·
Inserting
Paragraph (c) after 2(b) to say “Paragraph (b) prohibits, whether before,
during or after the creation of a front yard parking space, the creation of any
new addition or structure within the interior side yard which would result in
the removal of any land area which would have been available for parking
purposes;
·
Within
Paragraph 2(d) inserting the words “area of the” immediately after “…front yard
parking exceed 50% of the…” and before “front or corner side yard…”.
AND WHEREAS by motion the Committee amended Recommendation 1 (c) to
add “…and direct Building Services to inspect those duplexes that have been
converted illegally to triplexes listed in the QTN-PAC Report, to ensure that
these units meet Building Code” such that the recommendation to Council stated:
Direct the Planning and Growth
Management Department, Planning, Environment and Infrastructure Policy Branch,
to contact owners of all duplexes within the study area, and encourage those
with existing third units to regularize their units to meet the new requirements
by making any necessary changes to ensure Zoning and Building Code compliance, and
direct Building Services to inspect those duplexes that have been converted
illegally to triplexes listed in the QTN PAC Report, to ensure that these units
meet Building Code;
AND WHEREAS the Chief Building Official
advises that resource availability is such that only mandatory Code inspections
can be undertaken and additionally, in the absence of a warrant, Building Code
inspections can only be undertaken where there is a building permit application
or permit issued for the property/building, which is not the case for any of
the illegal units;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the recommendation 1 (c)
be amended to state:
Direct the Planning and Growth Management Department,
Planning, Environment and Infrastructure Policy Branch, to contact owners of
all duplexes within the study area, and encourage those with existing third
units to regularize their units to meet the new requirements by making any
necessary changes to ensure Zoning and Building Code compliance.
AND BE IT RESOLVED that that no further notice,
pursuant to Section 34(17) of the Planning Act, be provided.

WHEREAS
City Council passed a Motion at it’s meeting on August 23, 2006 to:
·
Approve that the City adopt the Environmental
Advisory Committee (EAC) recommendation to initiate an expedited review of its
current waste management strategy, which would create a comprehensive
Industrial, Commercial and Institutional (IC&I) sector waste plan that
would consolidate, update and improve the Integrated Waste Management Master
Plan (IWMMP). This comprehensive waste
plan for the IC&I sector would: create a blueprint for waste management in
Ottawa; address opportunities to increase diversion in relation to IC&I
waste (70% of Ottawa’s waste); explore how alternative technologies could be
employed (building on the review that the City of Ottawa will be conducting on
alternative technologies); and assess the need for expansion of the Carp and
Navan Road Landfills;
·
Approve that this IC&I sector review be done as
expeditiously as possible and address the need for landfill expansions in light
of an analysis of “alternatives to” landfill expansions, and that in any case
the IC&I sector review not take longer than 1 year, and that effective,
meaningful public consultation be undertaken in keeping with the spirit on the Environmental
Assessment Act.
AND WHEREAS
proposed Terms of Reference (ToR) have been issued to review ICI waste
management in the City and a consultant team has been engaged to prepare an ICI
Waste Management Strategy;
AND WHEREAS it
is imperative that the IC&I waste review and master plan be conducted in an
open and transparent manner and provide an opportunity to have the options
presented and debated by the public and properly tested;
AND WHEREAS
the ToR include a characterization
of the IC&I waste stream, diversion options and mechanisms to get to 60%
diversion and beyond; the implementation of alternative technologies, source
separation and recycling to reach diversion goals, and the need for landfill
capacity in light of diversion;
AND WHEREAS the consultant team engaged by
the City is currently preparing the Draft Scoping Document;
AND WHEREAS the Council approved Scoping Document will define the entire IC&I waste review and the public needs to be part of the process from the outset;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that following the public consultation the Final
Draft Scoping Document will be submitted to the Planning and Environment
Committee in January and subsequently to Council for approval;
AND BE IT
FURTHER RESOLVED that City staff prepare a detailed budget for the IC&I
review and Master Plan, that ensures that the review and plan be conducted in a
cost effective manner, and that City staff include time lines for key
deliverables.
