Introduction 1.1 Background GSP Group Inc. has been retained by Mill-Gate Holdings Ltd. (the “Applicant”) to prepare a Planning Justification Report for a Zoning Bylaw Amendment and industrial Draft Plan of Subdivision for lands municipally addressed as 2852 Cedar Creek Road in the Township of North Dumfries (the “Subject Property / Site”). The Site was previously used for aggregate extraction; however, the applicant would like to plan for industrial use of the Site once aggregate operations cease. This proposal is to rezone the property for general industrial use. The proposal also seeks an industrial Draft of Subdivision to divide the Site into smaller blocks to meet demand of smaller industrial users. A Pre-Consultation Meeting was held with the Township and Agencies that will comment on this application on October 12th, 2017, to discuss the requirements for a complete application. Several supporting technical reports were identified for the application to be deemed complete, including this Planning Justification Report. This Report should be read in conjunction with the other associated studies prepared in support of the application. The purpose of this Planning Justification Report is to provide: • A description of the Site, its existing physical conditions and its context within the surrounding area (Section 2); • A description of the development proposed (Section 3); • An overview of the relevant planning policy and regulations that affect the proposed planning application, including Provincial, Regional and Township policy, regulations and guidelines (Section 4); • An outline of the proposed Zoning Bylaw Amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision (Section 5); • A conclusion (Section 6). 1.2 Supporting Studies The following studies were identified to be provided by the Township and commenting Agencies and have been prepared in support of the Zoning Bylaw Amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision: • Functional Servicing and Stormwater Management Report; • Transportation Impact Assessment. Planning Justification Report | 2852 Cedar Creek Rd 1 GSP Group | June 2020 This Planning Justification Report should be read in conjunction with the above studies. Planning Justification Report | 2852 Cedar Creek Rd 2 GSP Group | June 2020 2. Site Context 2.1 Location and Description The Subject Property is located in the northwest of Township of North Dumfries, north of Ontario Highway 401 on Cedar Creek Road (Highway 97); as illustrated in Figure 1. Municipally the Site is addressed as 2852 Cedar Creek Road and has a legal description of CON 11 PT, LOT 32. The Site is 29.44 hectares (72.75 acres) in size and has a public frontage of 152.4 metres on Cedar Creek Road. The property was purchased by Millgate Holdings in 2003 and has since been used for mineral aggregate extraction. Currently there is no servicing available. Topography of the Site varies due to extraction use, but generally inclines towards the southeast. Vegetation on the Site is limited due to aggregate extraction; however, a small woodlot is located on the southwest corner of the Site along the Cedar Creek Road frontage. Aerial View of the Site (Google Earth, 2018) 2.2 Surrounding Area The Site is situated adjacent to Ontario Highway 401 (Hwy 401) and is surrounded primarily by industrial uses. Directly northeast of the Site is a Township of North Dumfries owned Stormwater Management Pond, servicing the outer industrial area. To the east on both sides of Hwy 401 is a large industrial park, featuring several auto-related businesses and other general industrial uses. Additionally, located in the industrial park is “ADESA Kitchener” auction house and “Tri-County Training” driving school. Immediately south of the Planning Justification Report | 2852 Cedar Creek Rd 3 GSP Group | June 2020 Site is a gravel pit and Quonset hut. Further industrial operations including paving manufacturer “Unilock”, are located to the southwest. North and west of the Site are primarily undeveloped and used as agricultural lands. Figure 2 displays the surrounding uses of the Site. The Site is near several settlement areas within the Township including Roseville to the northwest and Ayr to the south. The Site is also closely located to the south end of the City of Kitchener at the north and west end of the City of Cambridge at the east. Proximity to Highway 401 at the south-east of the Site provides direct inter-city access from the property.

Development Proposal The owner is seeking industrial use of the property once aggregate extraction operations cease. A Draft Plan of Subdivision is proposed to sever the land into individual blocks to meet demand of smaller industrial users. The three proposed blocks are a minimum of 8.0 hectares in land area, to meet the Industrial Strategic Reserve initiative by the Region of Waterloo and Township of North Dumfries. At this time the proposed industrial occupants for the Site are not known; however, they will be of similar nature to what is existing in the surrounding area. Access to the Site will be provided off Cedar Creek Road. The Site will be privately service to accommodate the new industrial uses. The existing municipal storm water management pond at the northeast has a higher elevation than the subject Site and currently services the industrial area at the east. The owner would like to propose a land swap to relocate the municipal stormwater management pond to the northwest of the Site to better serve the subdivision and existing Industrial Road uses. If accepted, the owner would relocate the pond and assume ownership of the former stormwater management pond from the Township. Planning Justification Report | 2852 Cedar Creek Rd 5 GSP Group | June 2020 4. Planning Policy Framework The following section sets out the relevant planning policy framework to assess the appropriateness of the proposed Zoning Bylaw Amendment and Draft Plan of Subdivision in the context of Provincial and City policies and regulations. 4.1 Provincial Policy Statement (2014) The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), issued under the Planning Act with the latest version coming into effect on April 30, 2014, provides direction on matters of provincial significance related to land use planning. The Planning Act requires that, “decisions affecting planning matters shall

  • Estimating the Marginal Effect of Pits and Quarries on Rural Residential Property Values in Wellington County, Ontario: a Hedonic Approach
    Estimating the Marginal Effect of Pits and Quarries on Rural Residential Property Values in Wellington County, Ontario: A Hedonic Approach by Alison Grant A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Program Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Alison Grant, June, 2017 ABSTRACT Estimating the Marginal Effect of Pits and Quarries on Rural Residential Property Values in Wellington County, Ontario: A Hedonic Approach Alison Grant Advisor: Dr. Brady Deaton University of Guelph, 2017 Committee: Dr. Jessica Cao Dr. Richard Vyn “Aggregate” material – i.e., sand, gravel, clay, and bedrock – are extracted from pits and quarries throughout Ontario. Aggregates are the number one resource extracted (by value) and used by Ontarians, and approximately $1.2 billion of aggregate material was extracted in Ontario in the last year. While aggregate is a valued resource, the extraction of aggregate is often identified as a negative externality. Similar to other environmental disamenities mentioned in the literature – such as shale gas exploration sites, wind turbines and landfills – residents near aggregate extraction identify a host of events that can be categorized as negative externalities. Residential concerns include noise and visual disamenities, as well as environmental concerns, such as diminished water quality. In this study, I assess the potential impacts of aggregate sites. First, I briefly introduce the perceived impacts of aggregate sites by quoting residents’ concerns through newspaper articles and lobby group websites. I then utilize the hedonic model to test these claims made by residents: namely, the negative effect on property values.

  • Windsor-Essex Parkway
    Backgrounder The Windsor-Essex Parkway The Windsor-Essex Parkway is part of a long-term transportation solution to improve the movement of goods and people between the Windsor-Detroit border – a vital gateway and key to Ontario’s economic well-being. Project Features The Windsor-Essex Parkway will continue Ontario’s Highway 401 through the municipalities of Tecumseh, LaSalle and Windsor. The Parkway’s design consists of a six- lane below-grade freeway which is an extension of Highway 401, a four-lane service road network which is an extension of Highway 3 and naturalized green space that will distance adjacent residents from the border-bound traffic travelling on the freeway. The Parkway is a once-in-a-generation undertaking. It is unprecedented in its community enhancement features for any highway, anywhere in Ontario and will include: • 11 tunnels covering 1.8 kilometres of freeway • extensive landscaping throughout the corridor • the use of proven techniques to reduce noise levels • special measures to protect wildlife. Vision Upon completion, the 11 kilometre Parkway will ease the movement of goods and people to and from the Windsor-Detroit border, separate local and international traffic, and eliminate stop-and-go traffic in residential areas. With more than 300 acres of green space, 20 kilometres of recreational trails and new community connections, residents in Windsor-Essex will enjoy an improved quality of life. Delivery method The Parkway is the first Ontario road project to be delivered using an alternative financing and procurement (AFP) model – a public-private partnership delivery method. In December 2010, the province signed a fixed-price contract with the Windsor Essex Mobility Group (WEMG) to design, build, finance and to provide long-term maintenance of the Windsor- Essex Parkway.

Wilson May 2019 Abstract The research for this paper was done as part of a sesquicentennial project on 150 Years of Canadian Engineering. Some of its material has also been presented orally. This paper covers briefly and selectively Canadian engineering events and achievements in four time periods: one up to the time of Confederation in 1867, and three others between then and 2017. Associated with the three later periods are corresponding economic/political/social timelines to help put the engineering in context. There are no comments in it on the quality of the design, construction/manufacture, origins and uses of the items listed. This paper took a whole lot longer than expected to research and write, so that it carries a date in 2019 rather than late in 2017, when the chronological material in it ends. There are no maps or photographs.

Project Manager Suzette Shiu, P.Eng. Technical Team Steve Molloy, BA Rudy Sooklall, M.A.Sc. December 2007 iTRANS Town of Ajax Transportation Master Plan Update Final Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Introduction In 2000, the Town of Ajax approved its first Transportation Master Plan (TMP) to address the transportation requirements up to 2021, which coincided with the build-out of Ajax within its urban boundary. With recent legislative changes to growth, regional policy changes and recent development activity within the Town, an update of the TMP was required to address transportation needs for the 2021, 2026 and 2031 horizon years. Since the preparation of the 2000 Master Transportation Study, many key assumptions have changed and new information is available: . Land use assumptions have been updated across Durham Region. Provincial planning initiatives provide the broad planning context for the transportation master plan – Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe and legislation such as the Greenbelt Act 2005 and Places to Grow Act 2005. The 2003 Durham Region Transportation Master Plan which adopts a vision of a balanced road and transit infrastructure investment strategy will provide an overall regional transportation context for Ajax’s transportation master plan.
