That the Planning and Development Committee recommend that Council approve amendments to the former Township of West Carleton Zoning By-law to change the zoning of 2150 Richardson Side Road from MR (Rural Industrial) to MR-26 (Rural Industrial-special zone 26) and to add business/professional /financial offices; restaurant and automobile service station as uses permitted in addition to the existing MR (Rural Industrial) uses.
RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité de l’urbanisme et de l’aménagement
recommande au Conseil d’approuver la modification du règlement de zonage de
l’ancien canton de West Carleton, pour changer la désignation MR (zone rurale,
industrielle) du 2150, chemin secondaire Richardson, pour la faire passer à
MR-26 (zone rurale, industrielle – zone spéciale 26), et d’ajouter des bureaux
commerciaux, professionnels et financiers, ainsi qu’un restaurant et une
station service automobile aux utilisations déjà autorisées aux termes de la désignation MR
(zone rurale,
industrielle).
BACKGROUND
An application has been filed for rezoning and site plan approval on the subject land. The site is located at the corner of Carp Road and Richardson Side Road (2150 Richardson Side Road), more specifically, Parts 1 and 2, Plan 5R-14798, Part of Lot 5, Concession 2 (Huntley Ward) in the former Township of West Carleton. The parcel has frontage on both the Carp and Richardson Side Roads. Access to the parcel will be from Richardson Side Road only. The parcel is currently zoned MR (Rural Industrial Zone) 2150 Richardson Side Road.
The parcel is currently used for open storage which appears to be accessory to the cement plant use on an abutting property. This storage will be required to relocate onto the parcel for which the use is accessory to.
The
applicant’s proposal is to add business/professional/financial office,
restaurant and automobile service station as permitted uses on the 3.04 ha
parcel. The site plan application
proposes a business office on a small portion of the site.
DISCUSSION
In considering this application, staff reviewed the Local and Regional Official Policies; Carp Road Improvement Study, Growth Management Study for West Carleton, and the Regional Road Corridor Design Guidelines.
Neighbouring uses include the Central Precast Facility (cement plan) and the Goulbourn sanitation site (Carp Road Landfill). The uses proposed should not create any conflict with surrounding uses. The proposed uses would support both the existing cement plan and also support the surrounding industrial area. The proposed uses are also in keeping with the “Growth Management Study For West Carleton” which recommended Carp Road serve as the industrial focus for the former Township. The proposed setbacks to Carp Road are also in keeping with recent development applications and the “Carp Road Improvement Study”. The setbacks and planting are intended to maintain the rural character of Carp Road. Required parking can be accommodated on site.
Staff therefore are recommending approval of the zoning change with the following provisions being incorporated into the MR-26 zone:
The following permitted uses be added:
· An Automobile Service Station;
· A business office;
· A financial office;
· A professional office;
· A restaurant.
The following specific zone provisions be added to the MR-26 Zoning By-law:
Special Setbacks From Carp Road:
· A setback for all buildings and structures shall be a minimum of 30 metres.
· A setback for parking and open storage shall be a minimum of 15 metres.
PLANTING
STRIP:
· A planting strip of 15m in width will be required along the front lot line abutting the parking and open storage adjacent to Carp Road.
PARKING:
The West Carleton Comprehensive Zoning By-law is structured such that parking standards are delineated in each specific zone. Therefore, the proposed MR-26 zone will have the following parking provisions:
· automobile
service station 10
per lot
· business/professional/financial office 1 for each 20.0 square metres of net floor
area or portion thereof
· restaurant the
greater of 1 for each 15.0 square metres of net floor area or portion thereof;
or 1 for each 4 person design capacity of all dining rooms
DELIVERY SPACES: (minimum)
· automobile
service station, restaurant, business/professional/financial office –1 per lot
CONSULTATION
The notice of public meeting rezoning was mailed to all landowners within 120 metres of the subject land and posted by the applicant with on site signage. In addition the application was circulated to those technical agencies required by the Planning Act. The Ward Councillor is aware of the application.
No comments or concerns in response to the circulation have been raised to date.
