    New Station Initial Business Case Milton-Trafalgar Final October 2020 New Station Initial Business Case Milton-Trafalgar Final October 2020 Contents Introduction 1 The Case for Change 4 Investment Option 12 Strategic Case 18 Economic Case 31 Financial Case 37 Deliverability and Operations Case 41 Business Case Summary 45 iv Executive Summary Introduction The Town of Milton in association with a landowner’s group (the Proponent) approached Metrolinx to assess the opportunity to develop a new GO rail station on the south side of the Milton Corridor, west of Trafalgar Road. This market-driven initiative assumes the proposed station would be planned and paid for by the private sector. Once built, the station would be transferred to Metrolinx who would own and operate it. The proposed station location is on undeveloped land, at the heart of both the Trafalgar Corridor and Agerton Employment Secondary Plan Areas studied by the Town of Milton in 2017. As such, the project offers the Town of Milton the opportunity to realize an attractive and vibrant transit-oriented community that has the potential to benefit the entire region. Option for Analysis This Initial Business Case (IBC) assesses a single option for the proposed station. The opening-day concept plan includes one new side platform to the north of the corridor, with protection for a future second platform to the south. The site includes 1,000 parking spots, a passenger pick-up/drop-off area (40 wait spaces, 10 load spaces), bicycle parking (128 covered spaces, 64 secured spaces) and a bus loop including 11 sawtooth bus bays.

    (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016

    Bolton Residential Expansion Study (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016 The purpose of this memorandum is to review the professional literature pertaining to the potential develop- ment of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in the Bolton Residential Expansion Study area, in response to the Region of Peel’s recent release of the Discussion Paper. The Discussion Paper includes the establishment of evaluation themes and criteria, which are based on provincial and regional polices, stakeholder and public comments. It should be noted that while the Discussion Paper and the Region’s development of criteria does not specifi- cally advocate for TOD, it is the intent of this memorandum to illustrate that TOD-centric planning will not only adequately address such criteria, but will also complement and enhance the Region’s planning principles, key points and/or themes found in stakeholder and public comments. In the following are research findings related to TOD generally, and specifically, theMetrolinx Mobility Hub Guidelines For The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (September 2011) objectives. Additionally, following a review and assessment of the “Response to Comments Submitted on the Bolton Residential Expansion Study ROPA” submission prepared by SGL Planning & Design Inc. (March 15, 2016), this memorandum evaluates some of the key arguments and assumptions made in this submission relative to the TOD research findings. Planning for Transit-Oriented Developments TOD policy and programs can result in catalytic development that creates walkable, livable neighborhoods around transit providing economic, livability and equitable benefits. The body of research on TODs in the United States has shown that TODs are more likely to succeed when project planning takes place in conjunction with transit system expansion.
  • Appendix A: Exempt Sites

    Appendix A: Exempt Sites

    APPENDIX A: EXEMPT SITES There are sites in Mississauga identified in Part 3 as Applewood Neighbourhood “exempt”. Exempt sites reflect unique circumstances that are not representative of the vision, direction and planning policies of the Plan, Exempt Site1 but nonetheless are recognized because they contain established land uses. Mississauga Official Plan will not be interpreted to prevent the use of any land or building on these sites for a purpose that is contrary to the Plan, if such uses or buildings lawfully existed on the date of the approval of the Plan. Generally such uses will be encouraged to relocate to lands appropriately designated. It is intended that “exempt sites” will be reviewed during the preparation of local area plans or other planning studies. Lands zoned to permit such uses or buildings are deemed to be in conformity with the provisions of the Plan. The lands identified as Exempt Site 1 are located at the northwest corner of Grand Forks Road and Bloor Street. Existing offices are permitted.

But instead of cutting jobs and services, we created a plan to build Ontario up. We chose to improve our schools, strengthen health care and invest in modern infrastructure. We chose to support our business community so it can rise to meet the challenges of a technology‐ driven, competitive global economy. Our plan is working. Ontario’s economy has continued to grow in an uncertain global environment.
