“ORIGINAL SIGNED” ______Alan Barfoot Warden County of Grey

Committee Report Report PDR-CW-40-17 To: Warden Barfoot and Members of Grey County Council From: Scott Taylor, Senior Planner Meeting Date: September 14, 2017 Subject: Approval of Municipality of Grey Highlands Official Plan Status:

Recommendation(s) That the Committee of the Whole hereby approves the new Municipality of Grey Highlands Official Plan as adopted by By-law No. 2015-88, subject to the following modifications attached to Report PDR-CW-40-17 as Schedule 1 and dated September 14, 2017.

Background The Municipality of Grey Highlands adopted a new Municipal Official Plan on December 14th, 2015. The new Municipality of Grey Highlands Official Plan (MGHOP) is intended to replace the previous MGHOP from 2001 (approved by the Ontario Municipal Board in 2003 and hereafter referenced as the 2003 Plan). A link to the adopted MGHOP has been included in the Attachments section of this report.

This new Official Plan started as a five-year review to the Grey Highlands Official Plan, but was eventually adopted as a whole new Plan. As part of the Official Plan process, the Municipality hosted a number of public consultation sessions, as well as a circulating the MGHOP to the required agencies. The Municipal Council has also considered the County’s proposed modifications, in February 2017, in order to provide feedback to the County. There is one key subject matter where the County Planning staff recommendation does not match the desires of the Municipal Council. This topic will be explored further in the Analysis section of this report.

Proposed modifications to the Plan are being recommended based on input received from the public, Council, stakeholders, and County/Municipal staff. The approval of the MGHOP will also have the effect of repealing the former 2003 Official Plan.

PDR-CW-40-17 1 September 14, 2017 Analysis of Planning Issues – Legislation, Provincial Policy Statement, and Niagara Escarpment Plan Planning Authorities must have regard for matters of Provincial interest, as set out under the Planning Act and be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) 2014. Decisions must also conform to the County of Grey Official Plan and any Provincial Plans that are in force and effect.

In the case of the MGHOP, the Plan must also not be in conflict with the Niagara Escarpment Plan. Niagara Escarpment Commission staff have provided detailed comments on the MGHOP.

Section 2 of the Planning Act sets out the matters of Provincial interest which all land use decisions shall have regard for. The matters under this section of the Act cover a broad spectrum of interests, which will not be explored in detail in this report. County Planning staff are satisfied that the MGHOP has regard for matters of Provincial Interest, and implements these interests through sound land use planning policies.

Section 1 of the PPS promotes development within settlement areas that can be serviced by municipal water and sewer systems. The Municipality has a significant amount of land within designated settlement areas. The Primary Settlement Area of Markdale provides the greatest opportunity for new growth, as it has full municipal services. Other smaller settlement areas, and the recreational communities, are also forecast for growth under the MGHOP. Section 1 further promotes the efficient use of land, resources and infrastructure, and promotes infill, intensification and the redevelopment of former brownfield sites. The MGHOP provides policy that requires all new development to be serviced appropriately, at densities that provide for the efficient use of land and infrastructure.

Section 1.4 of the PPS requires municipalities to provide a range of housing types and densities to meet the projected current and future needs. The MGHOP includes policies that are aimed at providing for a range of housing types. The MGHOP also includes second unit provisions as per Bill 140.

Section 2.1 of the PPS provides for the protection of significant natural heritage features within the Province. The MGHOP contains similar policies to the County Plan in this regard, and also implements the new adjacent lands standards of the 2010 Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Natural Heritage Reference Manual (NHRM). The new MGHOP also implements the County’s Significant Woodlands and Other Identified Wetlands mapping from the County Official Plan.

Section 2.3 of the PPS provides for the protection of agricultural lands throughout the Province. The MGHOP provides a similar policy basis to the County Plan on these matters, as well as implementing wording from the 2014 PPS, with respect to agriculture-related uses and on-farm diversified uses.

PDR-CW-40-17 2 September 14, 2017 Section 2.6 of the PPS provides for the protection of built and cultural heritage resources. The MGHOP includes a policy framework for the protection of said resources including referencing the role of First Nations and Métis peoples in the planning process.

Analysis of Planning Issues – County Official Plan The MGHOP must conform to the purposes and policies of the County Official Plan; however the MGHOP can also provide more detailed policies than would be provided for in an upper tier plan. The County Plan contains detailed rural and agricultural policies, and as such municipal official plans often focus on providing detailed settlement area policies.

The MGHOP successfully implements a number of policies from the County Plan, as modified by Official Plan Amendment (OPA) 80, including but not limited to the following:

1. An average development density of not less than 20 units per net hectare for Markdale should be achieved based on section 4.5.1(c) of the Plan. Further on in this section, detailed infill and intensification policies also provide appropriate direction for the Municipality. 2. The requirements for a Comprehensive Review have been added in cases where employment lands are being proposed to be redesignated to another land use, or where settlement areas are being expanded. 3. The Constraint mapping implements the County’s Significant Woodlands, and Other Identified Wetlands mapping. Associated policies have been included in the MGHOP for each of these constraints. 4. Implements the County’s 2015 Historic Landfills Study.

In addition to the above, there are two areas of deviation from the County Plan that were adopted in the MGHOP, which warrant some further discussion.

1. The mineral aggregate resource policies as adopted by the Municipality are not consistent with the approach taken by the County in OPA 80. More specifically the County does not require an official plan amendment for new or expanding pits within mapped aggregate resource areas, and the County Plan also states that local official plan amendments are not required either. In contrast, the adopted MGHOP would require municipal official plan amendments in this regard. Similarly, the MGHOP would require plan amendments for new asphalt plants proposed within existing pits, whereas the County Plan would not.

County staff have proposed modifications in this regard based on conformity to the County Plan. Aggregate resources is one area where the County Plan is quite prescriptive, and notes that official plan amendments are not required

PDR-CW-40-17 3 September 14, 2017 within mapped aggregate resource areas. Similar policies to those in the County Plan have also already been approved in the Town of The Blue Mountains Official Plan and the Municipality of Meaford Official Plan. County staff cannot justify making a special exception for Grey Highlands, as it would not conform to the County Plan. County staff would however note that when new pits or asphalt plants are proposed, there would still be a zoning amendment needed at the Municipal level that will trigger a public process and the requisite technical studies. Municipal Council does not support the proposed approach recommended by County staff.

2. The MGHOP has taken a more restrictive approach to on-farm businesses than the policies in the County Plan. The County has proposed modifications to the agriculture-related uses policies, in order to ensure consistency with the PPS (as per the Province’s Permitted Uses in Prime Agricultural Areas Guideline). The PPS does not require said uses to be small-scale, and would allow for the severance of such uses, which are the modifications by the County.

The County is not however proposing to modify the policies related to on-farm diversified uses or small-scale uses, even though they are significantly more restrictive than in the County Plan. A comparison of the two small-scale definitions has been provided in Table 1 below. The notable differences are that the MGHOP sets a minimum parcel size of 20 hectares for new on-farm diversified uses, or small-scale commercial/industrial uses, in the Agricultural and Rural designations, and sets a maximum business building size of 250 square metres for such businesses. The County Plan allows for up to 750 square metres of business building size on lots 20 hectares or greater, and does not contain a 20 hectare minimum lot size for such businesses in the Rural designation.

PDR-CW-40-17 4 September 14, 2017 County Official Plan Policies Grey Highlands Official Plan Policies SMALL SCALE on parcels 20 hectares or greater in SMALL SCALE on parcels 20 hectares or the Agricultural, Special Agriculture or Rural greater in the Agricultural or Rural designation small scale when used in the context of designation small scale when used in the commercial or industrial uses means those uses context of commercial or industrial uses which exceed the provisions of a Home/Rural means those uses which exceed the Occupation, but do not exceed the following: provisions of a Home/Rural Occupation, but do not exceed the following: • occupies combined building(s) not exceeding • occupies combined building(s) not 750 square metres; exceeding 250 square metres; • outside storage and display is limited to an • outside storage and display is limited area not greater than 500 square metres; to an area not greater than 750 • if the building(s) is less than 750 square square metres; metres the outside storage/display area may • the passing of an implementing be increased to a maximum combined outside Zoning By-law Amendment. storage/display area and building area that does not exceed 1250 square metres; and • the passing of an implementing Zoning By-law Amendment.

On parcels less than 20 hectares in the Special Agriculture or Rural designations, a maximum combined building area of 250 square metres and a maximum outdoor storage/display area of 750 square metres will be permitted.

On parcels less than 20 hectares in the Agricultural designation no small-scale commercial or industrial operations will be permitted.

Table 1: Small Scale Policies Comparison Although the adopted MGHOP policies are more restrictive than the County Official Plan, they would not appear to be in conflict with the PPS or the County Plan. County staff have not proposed to modify these policies in this regard, but would note that it could result in more municipal official plan amendments being triggered on lots less than 20 hectares in the Rural designation.

Subject to the detailed modifications in Schedule 1, County staff consider the MGHOP to have regard for matters of Provincial Interest, be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and to conform to the County of Grey Official Plan.

PDR-CW-40-17 5 September 14, 2017 Financial / Staffing / Legal / Information Technology Considerations At this time there are no expected financial, staffing, or legal considerations beyond those normally encountered in processing a new Official Plan. While there is always the possibility that the Plan could be appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board, County staff are of the opinion that the Municipality has done an excellent job of addressing any concerns that have been brought forward.

Link to Strategic Goals / Priorities Goal 1 of the County Strategic Plan is to ‘Grow the Grey County Economy’ and Goal 2 is to ‘Support Healthy, Connected Communities’. This development of these new Official Plan policies should support both of these strategic goals.
