Amendment Application:
The purpose and effect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment was to align the zoning of the lands with the proposed Red Line Revision to the existing Draft Plan of Subdivision to permit a range of zoning to allow for Single Detached Dwelling Units with site-specific performance standards; Townhouse Dwelling Units with site-specific performance standards; and Back-to-Back Townhouse Dwelling Units with site-specific performance standards, in addition to zoning for the proposed stormwater management ponds, parkland, and servicing/walkway blocks. The Zoning By-law Amendment will also refine the location of the Environmental Protection Zone to align with the location of the existing coldwater tributary to Silver Creek and provide an appropriate buffer to adequately protect this feature.
It was proposed that the existing Draft Plan of Subdivision be amended to increase the total number of Dwelling Units from 169 to 351:
- 39 Single Detached Dwelling Units and 122 Townhouse Dwelling Units on future municipal roads;
- Two future Common Element Condominium blocks (proposed to contain 120 Townhouse Dwelling Units and 70 Back-to-Back Townhouse Dwelling Units on future private condominium roads);
- Two stormwater management ponds to be owned by the City;
- A future park to be owned by the City;
- Servicing and walkway block; and,
- 15m to 23.7m wide Environmental Protection buffer on either side of the coldwater tributary to Silver Creek.
