RECOMMANDATIONS DU
RAPPORT
1 Que
le Comité de recommande au Conseil d’approuver une modification au Règlement de
zonage 2008-250 en vue de prolonger, pour une période de
trois ans, l’utilisation temporaire à titre de zone d’espace rural – exception rurale 354
(RU[354r]) visant le 2234, chemin Upper Dwyer Hill, tel qu’exposées en détail
dans le Document 2, sous réserve des conditions suivantes :
2. Que,
avant la présentation du règlement au Conseil, le propriétaire conclut une
entente avec la Ville d’Ottawa, comme il est précisé à l’alinéa 39.1(1) de la Loi sur l’aménagement du territoire, qui
stipule que :
(a)

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, garden suite, and two sheds on-site. Cody Creek
runs through the site and in the surrounding area are rural and agricultural
uses. The location of the subject land
is shown in Document 1.
DISCUSSION
The 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.
The existing zoning is Rural Countryside – rural exception 354 (RU[354r]), with a floodplain overlay over Cody Creek, which permits a garden suite as a temporary permitted use for a period of three years beginning on August 23, 2006 and expiring on August 23, 2009. Following expiration of the temporary zoning, the lands will revert to the underlying RU zone. The purpose of the proposed amendment is to extend for a period of three years, the current temporary use by‑law.
The extension of this temporary use for three years beginning July 8, 2009 to July 8, 2012 is appropriate as it is a temporary Zoning By-law amendment that does not conflict with surrounding agriculture or rural uses. The 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 Official Plan.
On Schedule K, in the Official Plan, Environmental Constraints, part of the site is within the Cody Creek flood plain. The Mississippi Conservation Authority did not raise concerns of the by-law extension and the existing garden suite is outside of the Flood Plain overlay in the Zoning By-law.
The garden suite has not negatively affected the surrounding area and the temporary extension does not conflict with surrounding agricultural and rural uses.
