Relationship to the Strategic Plan / Health Impact Assessment The application to amend the Zoning By-law is an operational matter under the Planning Act to which the City is responding. Report Summary An application for rezoning has been submitted in order to permit a limited range of light industrial uses on the former Wanup Public School site. The property is currently zoned “I”, Institutional and is designated as Living Area 2 and Rural under the Official Plan. The site is occupied by a 2 263 m2 former school built in 1961 that was declared surplus in 2010 following an accommodation review. The proposed uses include a contractor’s yard including the outdoor storage of materials, equipment and vehicles; commercial self-storage; service trades; and, warehouse. The applicant is proposing outdoor storage within the front, rear and interior side yards adjacent to the former school building, which requires site-specific relief under Section 4.28 of the Zoning By-law. The application is recommended for approval based on the following considerations: • Site-specific zoning provisions can be utilized to limit the range of light industrial use permitted on the property and restrict the location of outdoor storage to mitigate the impact on adjacent dwellings; • The M2-Special zoning shall restrict the contractor’s yard, commercial self-storage, service trade, warehouse and related accessory uses to Parcel 26911 S.E.S., Part 1, Plan SR-551 and Part 2, Plan SR-2355, which comprises the main school site. It is recommended that permitted uses on the remainder of the property described as Part 1, Plan SR-2355 be restricted to those permitted in the “RU”, Rural zone; • No development is proposed within the designated flood plain; • There are no concerns related to Species at Risk; • The forested area, which extends 60 metres from the easterly lot line, functions as a natural vegetative buffer; • The proposed uses are considered dry industrial uses and are therefore appropriate in a rural setting; and, • Site plan control shall be implemented in order to ensure appropriate development of the land and is recommended prior to the adoption of the amending by-law. Notwithstanding the above, Staff do not support outdoor storage in the front yard and the southerly interior side yard abutting the residential lot to the south. Financial Implications If approved, there will be additional property taxes from the change in use of the building, however staff is unable to estimate an amount at this point. Title: Michael Glass Date: March 9, 2018 STAFF REPORT Applicant: Michael Glass Location: PINs 73470-0231 & 73470-0288, Parcels 35220 & 26911 S.E.S., Part 1, Plan SR-551, Parts 1 & 2, Plan SR-2355 in Lot 1, Concession 2, Township of Dill (4543 Old Wanup Road, Wanup) Official Plan and Zoning By-law: The subject property has a split land use designation. The westerly portion containing the school building and part of the playing field along Old Wanup Road is designated as Living Area 2. The easterly remainder of the land is designated as Rural. A. Official Plan Living Area 2 Non-Urban Settlements such as Wanup are designated as Living Area 2. These communities rely on private services and are predominantly rural residential in character. There are limited commercial and industrial uses in Non-Urban Settlements due to the lack of municipal sewer and water services. Local institutional uses such as the former Wanup Public School are also permitted in Living Area 2. In order to support the adaptive reuse of surplus buildings, a concurrent Official Plan Amendment is not required for a change in use that does not comply with the underlying land use designation. Surplus institutional buildings Under Section 4.4, rezoning applications related to the conversion of surplus institutional buildings and the rezoning of vacant lands held by institutions shall be considered based on the following criteria: a. the need for such lands or buildings for other public uses, and their long-term value to the community; b. the compatibility of the proposed uses with surrounding land uses and the intent of the policies in this Official Plan with respect to the proposed uses; and, c. for conversion to residential uses, the appropriateness of the proposed density. Rural Areas Limited rural industrial/commercial uses are permitted in Rural Areas, particularly those activities that provide rural economic benefits that are balanced with protection of the natural environment and the agricultural resource base. The applicable policies of Section 5.2.5 are as follows: Rural industrial/commercial uses are generally resource-based and may include agriculture, dry industrial/commercial uses, and forestry. Title: Michael Glass Date: March 9, 2018 Rural industrial/commercial sites are to be located with adequate separation distances from residential areas, and provide proper buffering and landscaping along Arterial Road frontages. Entrances are restricted to Secondary Arterial and Local Roads, and no temporary structures, outside storage or sales displays may be visible from the frontage of abutting roads. All such development is subject to rezoning and site plan control. New resource-related industries should not impact the natural resource base. Rural industrial/commercial uses must generate limited amounts of wastewater and minimize land use conflicts. Flood plain designation A southeasterly portion of the property is located within a designated flood plain, as illustrated on the attached flood risk map. Lands with natural hazards are generally not suitable for development. The policies of Section 10.2, Flooding Hazards apply. Conversion of existing buildings Section 20.5.6 addresses the adaptive reuse of existing buildings in situations where the proposed use may not necessarily conform to the underlying land use designation. Various criteria are established subject to the rezoning process: a. the surplus building is suitable for the proposed use with respect to Building Code regulations; b. off-street parking is adequate; c. the proposed use is compatible with surrounding land uses with regard to noise, fumes, smoke, odours, traffic hours of operation, signs and other undesirable features; d. the neighbouring conforming uses are protected, where necessary, by the provision of landscaping, buffering or screening; e. parking, driveways, loading areas are improved, relocated, and buffered as warranted; f. wherever possible, the aesthetic appearance of the building and property is improved and maintained; g. sewer and water capacities are adequate to serve the new use; h. for conversion to residential uses, the proposed density is appropriate for the area and amenities are adequate; and, i. a site plan control agreement may be required prior to the enactment of an amending by-law. Conformity with the Official Plan is based on a review of the above noted considerations. B. Zoning By-law The property is currently zoned “I”, Institutional under Zoning By-law 2010-100Z, which permits institutional uses as follows: Children’s home, a day care centre, a place of worship, a hospital, a private club, a non-profit or charitable institution, a group home type 1, a group home type 2, a special needs facility, a recreation and community centre, an arena, a public museum, a public library, a public business, a public fire hall, a public or private school other than a trade school, or any public use other than a public utility.

  • Being Realistic About Planning in No Growth: Challenges, Opportunities, and Foundations for a New Agenda in the Greater Sudbury, CMA
    Being Realistic About Planning in No Growth: Challenges, Opportunities, and Foundations for a New Agenda in the Greater Sudbury, CMA by Heather M. Hall A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2007 ©Heather M. Hall, 2007 AUTHOR’S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT Regional disparities, most notably of the 'heartland-periphery' pattern, have been a distinctive feature of Canadian urban geography throughout the industrial era. New regimes of economic prosperity, recessions, and restructuring in the post-industrial era coupled with demographic fluctuations have added new and accentuated divisions and disparities creating an increased gap between cities that are growing and not growing. Under these conditions, it seems realistic to expect that no-growth cities might begin to develop distinctive planning strategies centered on a theme of decline or no-growth scenarios. However, this has not been the case. The City of Greater Sudbury is located in North-eastern Ontario and is best known across Canada for its original resource-based ‘boom’, its unsustainable mining practices and subsequent decline. The 21st-Century City of Sudbury has since evolved into a more balanced regional centre. Nonetheless, the population of the City has been fluctuating over the last 30 years, experiencing decline, slow growth, and no-growth scenarios.
