NEW TOOLS FOR VIEW CONTROLS IN CANADA’S CAPITAL

SURP 824 REPORT 2016 APPENDIX A: POLICY A PPENDIX A: POLICY

Author Policy Title (Year) Support for View Protection Controls

National Capital Commission Canada’s Capital Views Protection (2007) Strong Support (NCC) Outlines current view protection policies that are intended to protect and enhance the symbolic primacy of the national symbols. It explains the significance of the symbols as a means to represent the Nation’s identity and values (democracy, justice, and natural environment).

View Study for Hull (1993) Strong Support This strongly supports view protection. However, it should be noted that this document was prepared as a proposal from the NCC to the Ville de Hull (now ). It outlines how view protection policy should be implemented through zoning by-laws.

Canadian Register of Historic Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Strong Support Places Heritage Places (2010) This set of standards and guidelines outlines the best practices for protecting the integrity of cultural landscapes. While not specific to the national symbols, this document strongly advocates for the protection of viewsheds, sightlines and development of controls, which impact the setting of the cultural landscape.

Public Services and Good Neighbour Policy (2011) N/A Procurement Canada (PSPC) The Good Neighbour Policy ensures that local urban development priorities are considered by the Public Services and Procurement Canada, when making Real Property decisions on behalf of the Government of Canada. The policy does not directly relate to view protection of the national symbols in the National Capital Region, however it does advocate for cooperation and collaboration with local/municipal governments.

Parliamentary and Judicial Precinct Area Site Weak Support Capacity and Long Term Development Plan (2006) The policy includes a brief excerpt outlining Canada’s Capital View

OLICY Protection Policy (2007) developed by the NCC. Otherwise, the policy does not specifically discuss view protection. It does however outline the visual power associated with both the Parliamentary and Judicial Triads, which overlook the River and the ‘wild ’, which collectively form A: P

the essential components of the national symbolic image.

Community Based Investment Strategy (2012) N/A There is no mention of the Parliamentary Precinct. The Strategy does suggest that PSPC work in partnership with local governments and integrate sustainable development principles into decision-making. PPENDIX A

Public Services and Parliamentary and Judicial Precinct Area Site Weak Support Procurement Canada (PSPC) Capacity and Long Term Development Plan (2006) The policy includes a brief excerpt outlining Canada’s Capital View Protection Policy (2007) developed by the NCC. Otherwise, the policy does not specifically discuss view protection. It does however outline the visual power associated with both the Parliamentary and Judicial Triads, which A: P overlook the and the ‘wild escarpment’, which collectively form the essential components of the national symbolic image.

Community Based Investment Strategy (2012) N/A OLICY There is no specific mention of the Parliamentary Precinct. The Strategy does suggest that PSPC work in partnership with local governments and integrate sustainable development principles into decision-making. Federal Sustainable Development Strategy 2012 N/A

Progress Report The Federal Sustainable Development Strategy states “all newly constructed federal office buildings are required to meet the LEED Canada New Construction Gold level of environmental performance.” Shortly after the Strategy was adopted by Public Services and Procurement Canada, the private sector was very quick to respond by upgrading the environmental performance of new buildings and buildings that were being modernized. This demonstrates the strong influence the federal government has over the private sector. City of Ottawa Zoning City of Ottawa Zoning By-law No. 2008-250 (2008) Strong Support In the zoning by-law, blocks are individually zoned in the central area with site-specific schedules that enforce height limits in order to protect the visual integrity and symbolic primacy of the Parliament Buildings. The height controls in the site-specific schedules (Schedule 12 to Schedule 53) are largely controlled by height (listed in metres above sea level) that cannot be exceeded. Official Plan

City of Ottawa Official Plan Amendment 150 (2013- Strong Support 2014) Policies in Section 3.6.6 strongly support the protection of the visual integrity and symbolic primacy of the Parliament Buildings and other national symbols. This is completed through the implementation of angular planes, height limits and identification of key viewpoints. This is further supported through Annex 8A, 8B, 8C, and 8D. Section 4.11 further protects views of the national symbols from two locations in Beechwood Cemetery. Section 2.5.6 states that areas where 30 -storeys or more are permitted a view and skyline analysis must be completed to asses the impact of the proposed building on the views and skyline.

City of Ottawa Central Area Secondary Plan (2009) Strong Support Support for visual integrity and symbolic primacy of the Parliament Buildings through height limits and protection of views from the pedestrian level in the downtown. This is enforced by the Secondary Plan (Section 1.3.3 Policy f). Similarly to the Official Plan, the Secondary Plan’s policy I in Section 1.4.3 states that the City of Ottawa shall protect the views of the Parliament Buildings from two viewpoints at Beechwood Cemetery.

Design Guidelines Urban Design Strategy 20/20 Strong Support (2002-2004) This document shows strong support for view protection controls by recommending the views identified by the NCC and the City of Ottawa be safeguarded. Additionally, the Strategy recommends the height controls in place do not need to be revised and recommends built form guidelines that respect height controls in order to protect the views of the national symbols. Urban Design Objectives (2007) Moderate Support The Urban Design Objectives document recommends the preservation of distinct views as they are important for the community and for way finding; however the document does not clearly recommend controls and tools that can be used in order to protect views of the national symbols.

Ottawa Transit Oriented Development Guidelines No Support (2007) Despite encouraging density at transit stations, the Ottawa TOD Guidelines do not address view protection controls of the national symbols. TOD Guidelines are created in conjunction with the Official Plan and all other applicable regulations, therefore, Official Plan height restrictions protecting OLICY the views of the national symbols over-rule the guidelines.

Urban Design Guidelines for High-Rise Housing Strong Support The Urban Design Guidelines for High-Rise Housing strongly supports the

A: P (2009)

protection of views of the national symbols through its built form guidelines stating that high-rise developments must protect the views already created and must contribute to the skyline of Ottawa. For example, guideline nine states that high-rise developments should preserve and enhance views and vistas and must not block or detract from views to landmarks such as the national symbols. These Guidelines are created in conjunction with the Official Plan and all other applicable regulations and strengthen the support

City of Ottawa Plans Transit Oriented Development Plans: Lees, Hurdman, No Support

Despite encouraging increased density at transit stations, the Ottawa TOD

Tremblay, St. Laurent. Cyrville, and Blair (2014) A: P Plans do not address view protection controls of the national symbols. The density zoning regulations for the TOD Plans consist of three zones:

Low TOD Density Zone (TD1): a minimum density of 150 units per net OLICY hectare for residential or a minimum Floor Space Index (FSI) of 0.5 for non- residential land use. Buildings in this zone shall range in height from two storeys to six storeys;

Medium TOD Density Zone (TD2): a minimum density of 250 units per net hectare for residential or a minimum FSI of 1.0 non-residential land use. Buildings in this zone shall be no more than 20 storeys in height; and,

High TOD Density Zone (TD3): a minimum density of 350 units per net hectare for residential or a minimum FSI of 1.5 for non-residential land use. Buildings in this zone shall be no more than 30 storeys in height.

As the Lees and Hurdman Stations are closest to the project study area, the height and density targets for these TOD Plans were further analyzed. The Lees Station TOD Plan consists of all three density zones. However, the TD3 zone, which is to consist of maximum 30 storey buildings, has exceptional spot heights of 35 and 45 storeys for the Lees TOD Plan. According to Section 10.1.7, if a building more than 30 storeys is proposed, the building design would have to demonstrate how it contributes positively to Ottawa’s skyline with attractive and distinctive building tops.

The TOD Plan also consists of all three density zones. Different from the Lees Station TOD Plan, the TD3 zone height limits are to respect the 30 storey limit, with no exceptional spot heights. While identifying height limits and requiring buildings that are higher than 30 storeys to demonstrate that the proposed buildings contribute positively to Ottawa’s skyline with attractive and distinctive building tops, the TOD Plans do not outline view protection policies of the national symbols.

City of Ottawa Strategic Plans City of Ottawa Strategic Plan 2015-2018 N/A Supports city-wide planning and development initiatives, and establishes a plan for the current council term. The Strategic Plan does not specifically outline height or view protection controls.

Residential Land Strategy for Ottawa (2006-2031) N/A The Strategy does not discuss or apply to view protection controls of the national symbols.

Community Design Plans Centretown CDP (2013) N/A Not within project study area.

Ville de Gatineau Plan d’Urbanisme (2015) Program Particulier D’Urbanisme: Le coeur du centre- Moderate / Weak Support ville The plan has moderate to weak support for view protection as it mentions the showcasing of views, but never alludes to specific policies protecting them. Below are the policies that outline views:

Section 756.1 Quartier de la chutes des Chaudières supports view protection in part. This is a vision statement rather than a policy, that outlines that it wants to favour planning of public and private space on and east-west axis between le point des Chaudières and the to showcase important views. OLICY Section 756.7 Section de la Rive delineates a development on the ride of the Outaouais River. This would permit pedestrian activity along the banks of the river to allowing the public to enjoy the view. On the other hand, it A: P describes that they want to delineate the entries to downtown through the

establishment of taller buildings on the boarder of the corridors of the Portage and Chaudière bridges.

In the Pole Ludique Section, it describes a wish to preserve the character of Portage, reducing the maximum height for frontage onto la promenade du Portage and Laurier. PPENDIX A

Author Policy Title (Year) Support for View Protection Controls

Part 2— “Le parti d’aménagement” Oreitation No Support Ville de Gatineau d’aménagement et actions (Section 282) There is no support for view protection in this part, however, the section emphasizes cultural identity and introduces view protection of the Gatineau A: P Hills.

The policy is described below: OLICY

Policy 3 (Section 295) pertains to the valorization of cultural identity within the Ville de Gatineau. However, the word ‘encourages’ is used rather than a more enforceable term when it comes to their criteria.

Action 3.3 specifically states that to maintain cultural identity, they should “protect and frame the views of the Gatineau Hills”. Plan Particulier D’urbanisme Centre Ville Weak Support There is some mention of supporting view controls, however, it pertains to the Portage Bridge. The by-laws have not been changed or amended to comply to this. The policy is described below:

In the Pole Ludique Section— it seeks to preserve the character of Portage, reducing the maximum height on la promenade du Portage and Laurier St. The plan notes that the maximum heights were revised to implement the Secondary Plan. However, the zoning by-laws need to be changed in order to adopt these modifications. Réglement de Zones Sous Section 5 (611) No Support Height Limits are defined by zones in the Ville de Gatineau, however there is no mention of view protection in this document. This section provides a table and outlines the maximum height limits in the downtown core. In Section 612, the amendments are noted [these zones are in the Domtar Lands]: Zone c-08-259: one building can have a height limit of 75m Zone c-08-264 : one building can be over 99m Zone c-08-264: one building can be over 71m.

I.3 INTERVIEW SCRIPT

Interview Script

First of all, thank you for agreeing to participate in this interview. I really appreciate you taking the time out of your schedule to speak with H: E me. To remind you of our project, the NCC has tasked us, a group of Master's student from Queen's University's School of Urban and Regional Planning, to produce a final best-practice precedent catalogue that will demonstrate our research on the techniques used for view controls in other capitals and selected North American cities that may be useful precedents for Canada's capital. In the end, after analysis on existing THICS views and policies, our team will suggest new approaches and tools that could improve view controls, and recommend ways to enhance com- munication and public understanding of view control policies.

City of Ottawa Questions 1.How did the view control policies that are in place at the City of Ottawa get developed and implemented? 2. As a planner working in the city, how do you interpret these tools and policies in place at the City of Ottawa? 3. Are you aware of how many, if any, zoning by-law amendments (and/or OPAs) have occurred to allow buildings in the central area that go above the height limits that are in place to protect the views of the National Symbols? 4. Beechwood CDP states that a view protection study for Beechwood Cemetery was to be undertaken – are you aware of what this study stated in its findings? Do you have a copy? 5. With the construction of the LRT, and the implementation of TOD guidelines and Plans for Lees, Hurdman, Tremblay, St. Laurent, Cyrville, and Blair; do you see the potential of increased height around LRT stations setting precedents for the allowable height near the stations clos- er to the downtown core? 6. Do you believe that citizens are aware that the view protection policies that are in place? 7. Are you aware of any tools that are used that enhance the views or showcase them to the public? (i.e tourism, tours, apps, maps, web- sites). 8. What have you seen elsewhere in regards to view controls or public awareness of view controls?

Interview Script

City of Vancouver and City of Portland Questions: 1. Can you provide some background on how the view control policies came to be? Were there any specific cities the policies were modeled after? 2. With these policies, what do you feel is the biggest challenge to implementation? 3. Do you feel like these policies would hold up in the face of larger development pressure as the city continues to grow? 4. How big of a role do you believe that the public plays in view protection in the city? How in depth was the public consulted when the poli- cies were created? 5. Do you believe that citizens know that these policies are in place? If yes, has the city attempted to increase awareness? 6. Was there any public consultation on the use of benefit capacity around the city? 7. Are you aware of any tools that are used that enhance the views or showcase them to the public? (i.e. tourism tours, maps, apps, web- sites) 8. Was there ever an attempt to quantify the economic generation in the city from views being protected? Are you aware of the monetary off- set in the city when high-rise developments are pushed outside the core? 9. Do you feel that there are additional policies that could enhance view control protection in the city?

10. Are there any other things you would like to mention? THICS H: E

Do you feel view protection policies would hold up in the face of larger development pressures as the city continues to grow?

4. Are the citizens of Halifax aware of the view protection policies? Were they consulted when the policy was created? How has HRM attempt- ed to increase this awareness? 5. Has a study been done to quantify the economic generation in the city from views being protected? For example, high-rise development being prevented in the core, how is revenue in the core being impacted by that? 6. Are you aware of any tools that are being used in Halifax to enhance views showcasing them to the public? Do you know tools being use in any other cities?
