SUBJECT: ZONING - 7116 MALAKOFF ROAD

OBJET: ZONAGE – 7116, CHEMIN MALAKOFF

REPORT RECOMMENDATION

That the Planning and Development Committee recommend that Council approve an amendment to Zoning By-law 84-77 of the former Township of Rideau, to change the zoning of 7116 Malakoff Road from A2-General Rural to RE-31 Estate Residential Exception 31 and RE-32 Estate Residential Exception 32.

RECOMMANDATION DU RAPPORT

Que le Comité de l’urbanisme et de l’aménagement recommande au Conseil municipal d’approuver une modification au Règlement municipal de zonage 84-77 de l’ancien Canton de Rideau visant à remplacer le zonage A2, rural général de la propriété située au 7116, chemin Malakoff par des zonages RE-31, domaine résidentiel, exception 31 et RE-32, domaine résidentiel, exception 32.

BACKGROUND

The purpose of the proposed Zoning By-law amendment is to legally recognize an approved severance. The subject property has frontage on Malakoff Road in the former Township of Rideau. This application has been filed by the applicants in response to a condition of severance established by the Rural Alliance Land Severance.

The approval of this severance generates a need to rezone the subject property in order to ensure the property is in conformity with the provisions of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-77.

DISCUSSION

The subject property is designated “General Rural and Organic Soils” in the former Regional Official Plan and “Marginal Resource” in the former Township of Rideau Official Plan. The lands are further zoned “A2-General Rural” in the Township Zoning By-law.

As a result of the approved consent application three separate parcels of land were created. The severed lot has an area of 3.6 ha. with 91 metres of lot frontage. The retained parcels have areas of 4.8 ha. and 5.2 ha. with lot frontages of 120 metres and 127.6 metres respectively.

The severed parcel will be rezoned to RE-31 Estate Residential Exception 31 to recognize the new residential status, lot area and frontage. The two remnant parcels, similar in lot area and frontage, will be rezoned to RE-32 Estate Residential Exception 32. The exception to the by-law brings into conformity the lot areas and frontages.

The Organic Soils designation required the completion of a soils investigation. A soils report has been completed to the satisfaction of the City of Ottawa. The recommendations of the study do not necessitate specific zone provisions.

RURAL IMPLICATIONS

The adjacent lands are characterized as mixed rural residential and farming uses. The impact of the rezoning application is viewed as negligible.

CONSULTATION

The rezoning was advertised in the local papers and circulated to all registered property owners within 120 metres of the subject property. In addition the application was also placed on a technical circulation for information and no substantive comments were received.

The Ward Councillor is aware of the application.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
