(Golder), on part of Lots 1-21, Concessions 6, and part of Lots 1-21, Concession 7, Geographic Township of Markham, former County of York, now City of Markham, Regional Municipality of York, Ontario (Map 1). The Stage 1 archaeological assessment was conducted in support of a Municipal Class EA for improvements to McCowan Road from Steeles Avenue to Major MacKenzie Drive. The objective of the Stage 1 archaeological assessment was to compile available information about the known and potential archaeological resources within the Project Area and to determine if a field survey (Stage 2 and/or 3) is required, as well as to recommended Stage 2 and/or Stage 3 strategies if required. The Stage 1 archaeological assessment found the Project Area exhibited potential for the recovery of pre- and post-colonial Indigenous and historical Euro-Canadian archaeological deposits. This finding is supported by the Project Area’s proximity to potable water, soils conducive to Indigenous agriculture, a large number of previously identified archaeological sites within one kilometre and the proximity of the Project Area to early transportation routes and documented infrastructure. Based on the findings of the Stage 1 assessment the following recommendations are made, as illustrated in Map 5 and Supplement A: 1) Areas of previous disturbance exhibit low potential for the recovery of archaeological remains. No further assessment is recommended for these areas; 2) The Eckardt Cemetery is located on a height of land above McCowan Road and at a distance removed from the roadway. No further assessment is recommended for the Project Area adjacent to the Eckardt Cemetery; and 3) The Quantztown Cemetery is located adjacent to the Project Area. Should impacts be planned within 10 metres of the cemetery’s boundary (including within the right-of-way (ROW)) a Stage 3 archaeological assessment is recommended (Supplement A). This Stage 3 should include mechanical topsoil removal within 10 metres of the cemetery’s property, to ensure no unmarked grave shafts are impacted by the Project. This recommendation is consistent with Section 4.3 Standard 1 Table 4 (MTCS 2011). The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport (MTCS) is asked to review the results and recommendations presented herein and accept this report into the Provincial Register of archaeological reports. The MTCS is also asked to provide a letter concurring with the results presented herein. The Executive Summary highlights key points from the report only; for complete information and findings, as well as the limitations, the reader should examine the complete report. 24 May 2018 Report No. 1662269-7000-R01 i STAGE 1 ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT -

    CITY OF MARKHAM DRAFT OFFICIAL PLAN PART I Chapter 11 – Area and Site Specific Policies February 2013 Area and Site Specific Policies Chapter 11 11.0 Area and Site Specific Policies Throughout Markham there are areas and sites that require special policies that vary from one or more provisions of this Plan. These policies generally reflect unique historic conditions for approval that must be recognized for specific development sites, or provide a further layer of local policy direction for an area. In most cases, the area and site specific policies provide direction on land use. The Plan policies apply to these lands except where the area and site specific policies vary from the Plan. The area and site specific policies contained in this Chapter are generally categorized into districts containing policies that may apply to a specific area or group of properties or a specific site. These districts are shown on Map 14 – Area and Site Specific Policies. The area and site specific policies include interim policy provisions for the secondary plan areas shown in Appendix F – Secondary Plan Areas where the provisions of the Official Plan (Revised 1987) and relevant secondary plans shall continue to apply until an update of the existing secondary plan or a new secondary plan is completed and approved to be consistent with the provisions of this Plan. Once completed these secondary plans will form Part II of this Official Plan. Some of the area specific policies contain provisions for study or phasing requirements to be completed prior to development approvals on the lands such as local area studies and traffic impact assessments.

  • Selling the Suburbs: Exploring Representations of Social Diversity in Marketing Media in Markham, Ontario
    Selling the Suburbs: Exploring Representations of Social Diversity in Marketing Media in Markham, Ontario Independent Project By: Katherine Perrott PLAN 6000 For Instructor: Michael Poulton & Advisor: Jill Grant December 2007 Acknowledgements Generous funding support for this project was provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, through a Canada Graduate Scholarship - Master’s. This project stems from a larger research project called “Theory and practice in planning the suburbs”. The principal investigator is Dr. Jill Grant, Dalhousie University. The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada also provides funding for this project. I thank my advisor, Jill Grant, for providing guidance on this project and feedback on earlier drafts. Thank you also to Michael Poulton and my fellow graduate students for offering useful comments following my presentations throughout the semester. Finally, heartfelt thanks to Justin, my supportive husband, and my family who have always believed in me. Executive Summary The southern Ontario landscape is dotted with outdoor billboards and sales centres promoting new residential developments. As farms are converted to suburbia, developers and builders prepare the infrastructure, create detailed plans and begin to shape the look and feel of a future community through marketing material. Advertisements for a new residential development function as a prologue in the story of what a future community will be like: they offer pictures of who will live there, what they will own, what their houses will look like and what the quality of their amenity space will be. Planners on the other hand, also produce visions of what a future community will be like in policy documents such as Official and Secondary Plans.
