  • Byward Market Annual Report

    Byward Market Annual Report

    ByWard Market Annual 2017 Report Introduction: Administration & Financial ByWard Market BIA Mandate To support and promote the health and vitality of the ByWard Market as a unique business district and meeting place for residents as well as visitors. The ByWard Market is characterized by a wide variety of owner-operated businesses and a farmers’ market that make the Market rich in heritage, activity and animation. Financial Breakdown Revenues & Expenses Property Taxes vs Levies Commercial properties in the ByWard Market BIA pay millions of dollars in property taxes annually to the City of Ottawa. Property taxes DO NOT fund the BIA. 100% of property taxes go directly to the City of Ottawa paying for many City services such as: emergency services (police, fire, ambulance), road maintenance, snow removal, water service and sewers, City parks, and facilities etc… In contrast, the BIA is primarily funded through the BIA levy collected from commercial property owners. It is very important to note that the ByWard Market BIA has one of the lowest levies of all of Ottawa’s urban BIAs. This commitment to keep the levy cost minimal for business members means BIA staff need to find alternative sources of revenue to supplement the overall budget. These include sponsorships, grants, sales, and partnerships. In 2017, the ByWard Market BIA supplemented 35% of the overall operating budget through other sources of revenue (sponsorships, sales, and grants). The Board has always been committed to responsible fiscal management. Even though we are one of the busiest BIAs in the City, the ByWard Market BIA levy remains one of the lowest in the downtown core.

TAGGART REALTY MANAGEMENT 223 McLeod Street 225 Metcalfe Street Ottawa, Ontario Ottawa, Ontario K2P 0Z8 K2P 1P9 Canada Canada Tel: 613.730.5709 Tel: 613.234.7000 www.fotenn.com www.taggart.ca FoTenn Consultants Inc. has been retained by Taggart Group of Companies to prepare the following Planning Rationale in support of a Zoning By-law Amendment for the lands known municipally as 265 Carling Avenue. PURPOSE OF THE ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT / The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment is to permit the development of a 20-storey (62 m) mixed-use building situated on the western half of the subject property. The development is comprised of 11 two-storey live/work townhomes, 149 one- and two- bedroom apartment units, and 88 m2 of ground floor commercial space. In order to accommodate the proposed development, it is proposed that the entire property municipally known as 265 Carling Avenue be rezoned from AM, AM H(28), and R4T[1536] to AM[XXXX] F(4.2) SXXX. This zoning will vary the following provisions of the AM parent zone and Table 101- Minimum Parking Space Rates of the Zoning By-law: Permit site-specific yard setbacks to accommodate the existing and proposed buildings, as per the proposed schedule (attached); Increase the maximum permitted building height from a range of 14.5 to 28 metres to 62 metres (20 storeys) where the tower is proposed, as per the proposed schedule; Increase the maximum permitted Floor Space Index (FSI) from 3.5 to 4.2; Recognize the existing landscaped buffers in between the existing office building and the adjacent residential zone to the north; Remove the minimum parking space requirement for the commercial portion of the live/work units and the commercial space fronting onto Carling Avenue; Reduce the minimum parking space rate for the existing office building from 2.0 spaces/100 m2 to 1.8 spaces/100 m2; and Identify the lands as one lot for zoning purposes.
