the Township's Official Plan and therefore would be subject to Section D3.3.1. The

Township, only a limited number of new lots for residential purposes can be created in the
Township. In this regard, only one new lot can be severed from a lot in the Rural designation

d) will not cause a traffic hazard as a result of its location on a curve or a hill; and,

,
The subject property is designated Rural Settlement Area in the Township's Official Plan.
The intent of the Rural Settlement Area Designation is to maintain and create attractive
communities with suitable amenities and to ensure that settlement areas are developed in
a logical and cost-effective manner. This application is subject to the policies of Section
D4.3.2New Residential Lots by Consent
The creation of new lots for any permitted use by consent to sever is permitted,
provided a Plan of Subdivision is not required in accordance with Section D4.3.1 and
provided the proposed lot:
9q)8'
a) fronts onto an existing public road that is maintained year round by the
Township, County or Province; ,
b) will not cause a traffic hazard as a result of its location on a curve or a hill;
c) can be serviced with an appropriate water supply and an appropriate means
of sewage disposal;
d) complies with the County of Simcoe access policies if the proposed lot
is to be accessed by a County road; and,
e) is not located on lands designated Rural Settlement Area in the Forest
Home or Prices Comers Settlement Areas.
Moonstone and Oro Station are two settlement areas where only limited growth on municipal
water and private septic systems will occur. Both of these communities are rural service centres
and are serviced by a municipal water system that are capable of being expanded. Given the
limited scale of new development anticipated in these two communities, communal sewage
treatment systems are not required nor will they be considered for assumption by the Township.
The application appears to comply with the Official Plan policies under section D4.3.2. subject
to the final approval of the County of Simcoe regarding entrance approvals and the Township's
Engineering Department regarding connection to the municipal system.
I ZONING BY-LAW
I
The subject property is zoned AgriculturallRural Exception 15 (A/RU*15) in the Township's
Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended. Exception 15 deals with Lands adjacent to Settlement areas,
and only uses that existed on the effective date of this By-law (Nov. 5/97) are permitted on those
lands. With the subject property being divided to create eight new lots, that would change the
existed use on the property, therefore the application would not conform to the policies of the
Zoning By-law. The applicant's would be required to rezone the property as a condition of
consent.
JRECOMMENDATION
I

following conditions:
I. That the applicant obtains approval for a Part 8 Sewage Application from the

APPLICANT: Laurel View Homes
APPLICATION NO.: A-38102
ROLL NOMBER:
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Concession 4, Part of North Half Lot 3 (Oro)
'PROPOSAL
I
The applicant is requesting relief from the minimum requirement rear yard setbackfrom 7.5 metres
(24.6 feet) to 632 metres (20.73 feet) to permit a deck.
I AGENCY COMMENTS
,
Building Department: No concerns
Roads Department: No concerns
DOES THE V ARlANCE CONFORM WITH THE GENERAL INTENT OF THE
OFFICIAL PLAN?
The subject property is designated Horseshoe Valley Low Density Residential in the
Township's Official Plan and is subject to Section E2.5A.2 Permitted uses in an Adult
Lifestvle Comrmmitv
Lands designated Horseshoe Valley Low Density Residential at the southern end of the
Horseshoe Valley Resort Node may be developed as a low density adult lifestyle community that
meets the special requirements and diverse preferences of retirement age residents. On the date
this Plan was adopted by Council, these lands were the site of a 287 lot Draft Approved
residential Plan of Subdivision (43T 91007 43T-89054). (Modification #60) Lands in the
southwest quarter of Lot 4, Concession 4 may also be the site of an adult lifestyle community
that is developed in conjunction with the lands within the Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision to
the north (43T 9l00743T-89054) or on its own.
Permitted uses within the adult lifestyle community include all forms of low density housing,
such as single detached and semi-detached dwellings, a limited amount of medium density
housing such as townhouses and multiple dwellings and small scale personal service and
convenience commercial uses servicing the day to day needs of residents of the community.
Other permitted uses include community centres, sports facilities, open space uses. Institutional
uses in the form of nursing home andlor retirement home or such like uses may also be permitted.
~Cj);(z..
Mobile homes are not permitted. The application is for a deck on a single detached dwelling, '
which isa permitted use; therefore the application conforms to the policies of the Official Plan.
DOES THE VARIANCE CONFORM WITH THE GENERAL INTENT OF THE
ZONING BY -LAW PROVISIONS?
The subject property is zoned Residential One Exception l40(Rl *140) in the Township's
Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended. The intent of the By-law is to establish setbacks from'
neighbouring properties. The proposed variance would not appear to affect any of the
surrounding neighbours as a golf COUTse is located at the rear of the property.
IS THE VARIANCE DESIRABLE FOR THE APPROPRIATE DEVELOPMENT OR USE
OF THE LAND? '
Upon site inspection the variance would be desirable, as it would not affect any of the
surrounding neighbours.
lIS THE VARIANCE MINOR IN NATURE?
~
The proposed variance would not be minor in nature, as it would set a precedent in the adult
lifestyle community. This variance may lead to many more applications for a reduced rear yard
setback, as this home is a model home for the adult community.
I RECOMMENDATION
,
It is recommended that Minor Variance Application A-38/02 be GRANTED, once Committee is
satisfied that this application would not set a precedent within the adult lifestyle community, and
subject to the following conditions:
1. That an Ontario Land Surveyor provide verification to the Township of compliance
with the Committee's decision by 1) pinning the footing and 2) verifying in writing
prior to pouring of the foundation by way of survey/real property report.
2. That the setbacks be in conformity with the dimensions as set out in the application, as
submitted;
3. That the apprQpriate building permit be obtained from the Township's Chief Building
Official only after the Committee's decision becomes final and binding, as provided
for within the Planning Act R.S.O. 1990, c.P. 13;
4. That all municipal taxes be paid to the Township of Oro-Medonte.

M0T110N #: DATE:
DATE: December 18, 2002
Bell Canada has requested the use of the Baseball Diamonds and the Banquet Hall fOT Saturday February 1st,
2003 for the purpose of entertaining a Charity Sno-Pitch Tournament at the Oro-Medonte Arena. Staff
received the correspondence by Ms. Margaret Cadeau at the Committee of the Whole on December 11th, 2002
(attachment # 1).
The Bell Canada Charity Sno-Pitch tournament held in March of this year, saw the winning team of the
Tournament (The "What Up") donate $1,000.00 to the charity of their choice. The "Whats Up" chose the
, S.P.C.A. of Barrie to be the Tecipient of the $1,000.00. A fee of$132.00 emanating from last years use of the
Ball Diamonds were waived, and the participants did not have access, nor request the use of the Banquet Hall.
, Bell Canada is asking Council to waive the rental fee for the use of the Ball Diamonds in the amount of$132.00
and the Banquet Hall in the amonnt of $267.00.
Bell Canada has infonned Township staff that they wil1 be expecting around 150 to 170 participants in the
tournament. The tournament wil1 attract participant within the community and surrounding municipalities. Ms.
Cadeau has been in contacted with the Oro District Lions Club to sen food and beverages as part of their
fundraising objectives.
It would be my recommendation that Council waive the rental fee of $132.00 for the use of Ban Diamonds and
$267.00 for the use in the Banquet Hall in recognition of the Bell Canada charitable work.
'I b) z..,
1. That Council receives and adopts this report.

Oro-Medonte
Parks and Recreation
Dear Mr. Carter,
The Bell Canada Charity Sno-Pitch Tournament, was held March 2, 2002 it was a
tremendous success, and it raised $1000.00 for Charity. A local Barrie team, the
"Whats Up Team" won the championship, and had chosen the S.P. C.A. Barrie branch
as the money recipient.
We are looking forward to continue with our Annual Charity Sno-Pitch. We have
chosen a date of Saturday February 1st 2003, for next year.
We are extremely grateful to the Oro-Medonte Parks and Recreation, who provided the
use of the Ball Diamonds and facilities last year, without you this Charity Event
would not have taken place.
Again, I would like to ask your permission for the use of the Oro-Medonte ball
diamonds (Lions #1 & #2) located directly behind the Arena, to accommodate our
teams for the Feb. 2003 tournament. We would only require use of the diamonds for
the one day, and the use of the Arena's facilities, would definitely be appreciated.
This event is only held for one day between the times of 8:00a.m. and 6:00p.m., we
have approximately 150- 170 people in this community and area who participate.
I have contacted your local Lions Club member, Ron Weir to advise them of the
tournament. If, the Ora district Lion's Club decide to sell food and beverages, this too
will assist them within their own community in turn to raise money for their functions.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience if our event can take place.
Thanking you in advance,
Sincerely,
Margaret Cadeau
Bell Canada Associate

PART I: THE INTRODUCTION
(this is not an operative part of Official Plan Amendment No. 15)
1.0 BACKGROUND
The Oro Centre Study Area has a total area of 111 hectares (275 acres). It is centred on
the intersection of Highway 11 and the 7th Line. The Study Area is divided into 34
landholdings. It is currently the site of a number of commercial, residential and
institutional uses. These uses are generally located on small lots located on and directly
accessed by Highway 11. The Oro-Medonte municipal office is also located in this area.
The Lake Simcoe Regional Airport is located directly tD the north of the Study Area.
Lands to the east of the Study Area, on the north side of Highway 11, are the site of a
campground. Lands to the east and on the south side of Highway 11 are the site of the
Burls Creek Family Event Park, where a number of recreational and entertainment events
take place. Lands to the south and west of the Study Area are used for agricultural
purposes.
2.0 BASIS FOR THIS SECONDARY PLAN
The Oro-Medonte Official Plan has recognized Oro Centre as an important location for a
variety of employment generating land uses. Policies related to economic development
and, more specifically, Oro Centre, are contained within the Official Plan and provide the
basis for this Secondary Plan.
Economic Development to be Encouraged - It was decided by Council as part of
the Official Plan Review process that economic development should be encouraged in
the municipality. Below is the component of the Official Plan vision that deals with this
objective:
"The vast majority of the Township's residents work and shop in
neighbouring Barrie and Orillia. Many jobs and dollars leave the
community. Additional economic development in the Township will be
encouraged by the Official Plan to reduce these outflows, provided there
are no negative impacts on the natural environment, natural resources or
rural character of the community or on the quality of life now enjoyed by
the Township's residents. A decreased reliance on neighbouring centres
to provide emplDyment and shopping opportunities will help foster a
sense of community in the Township. AdditiDnal economic activity will be
encouraged by designating lands in the vicinity of the Lake Simcoe
Regional Airport for industrial and commercial purposes and by permitting
home occupations and home industries in the rural area."
Official Plan Amendment No. 15
Township of Oro-Medonte
Oro Centre Secondary Plan
Prepared by Meridian Planning Consultants December, 2002

On the basis of the above VISion, the following economic development goals are
contained within the Official Plan:
. Development resulting in an increase in economic activity in the
Township shall be encDuraged, provided such development does
not have a negative impact on the natural environment, natural
reSDurces and rural character of the community.
. The role of the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport in the regional
economy is tD be strengthened wherever possible to stimulate
local economic activity.
The concentration of economic activity along Highway 11 will be
encouraged and one new area for commercial and industrial
development and new forms of retailing activity will be located at
or near the intersectiDn of the 7th Line and Highway 11 to take
advantage of the location of the airport.
Lands Designated Oro Centre IndustriallCommercial- In order to implement the
above economic development goals, it was decided to designate one central area in the
municipality for employment uses. On the basis of a review of potential locations along
Highway 11, it was decided that the most appropriate location for such an employment
area would be in Oro Centre since it is:
located adjacent to the Lake Simcoe Regional Airport. which has the potential to
attract commercial and industrial uses to the area:
centrally located between the City's of Barrie and Orillia and as a result, has the
potential of attracting uses that serve both of those markets; and,
located at an interchange with Highway 11.
As a result, the Study Area was designated Oro Centre Industrial/Commercial in the new
Official Plan.
Permitted Uses - Permitted uses in the Oro Centre Industrial/Commercial designation
include:
I

. manufacturing, assembly, processing and fabrication uses;
. warehousing uses;
research establishments:
business offices and accessory retail uses;
restaurants;

motels:
. hotels;
. conference centres;
institutional uses such as municipal offices, places of worship and schools;
recreational establishments;
bus terminals and bus transfer stations;
. animal hospitals; and,
. medical clinics.
Requirement for a Secondary Plan - Section D13.3 ofthe Official Plan requires that
an Official Plan Amendment, in the form of a detailed Secondary Plan, be prepared
before the development of any permitted use, or an expansion to an existing use, occurs
in the Oro Centre Industrial/Commercial designation. The following matters are to be dealt
with by the Secondary Plan:
. the form of servicing;
. the financial implications of both constructing and operating the servicing
systems;
. the form of access to all lands in the Secondary Plan area;
. the compatibility of proposed uses with adjacent land uses outside of this area;
the relationship of parking, loading and outdoor display areas in relation to
Highway 11:
the mix, location and density of proposed land uses:
. the phasing of development;
. the impacts of development on the Highway 11/7th Line and Highway 11/8th Line
interchanges;
the impacts of development on the natural heritage system; and,
. the impacts of development on the sub-watershed in the area.
3.0 OPPORTUNITIES AND CONSTRAINTS
Council authorized the preparation of a Secondary Plan for the Oro Centre area in
February 1998. In addition to The Planning Partnership (now Meridian Planning
Consultants), a number of consultants were retained to provide advice on various aspects
of the Secondary Plan, as follows:
. TCI Convergence was retained to provide the Township with some ideas on
potential uses;
Gartner Lee was retained to provide advice on environmental issues;
McCormick Rankin was retained to provide advice Dn transportation issues: and,

C.C. Tatham & Associates was retained to provide advice on servicing and
stormwater management issues.
Potential Uses - TCI Convergence Limited was retained to identify the types of uses
most likely to be attracted to Oro Centre in the future. In order to reach their conclusions,
a number of regional stakeholders were interviewed and other communities with airports
were canvassed to determine what opportunities existed in similar locations. On the basis
of their findings, below are the uses that are most likely to be attracted to the area.
Aviation-related businesses - At the present time, the airport is underutilized.
However, with aggressive promoting and planning, many similar airports have
attracted a number of aviation-related uses such as flying schools and clubs,
engine repair depots, cargo depots and related office/industrial development. It
is felt that such uses could be attracted to the airport itself or to lands in the
vicinity of the airport in Oro Centre.
. Auto-re/ated industry - With the development of the Honda plant in Alliston,
Simcoe County is increasingly becoming a destination for auto-related industry.
Given the location of the airport and the highway and the 'just-in-time' philosophy
many auto-makers and suppliers now adopt, opportunities exist to site such uses
in Oro Centre.
. Trucking centres - Given the location of the airport and Highway 11, an
opportunity exists to attract trans-shipment facilities to the area. These facilities
would warehouse goods required by Simcoe County businesses until they were
needed for production, The Mount Hope airport area near Hamilton has attracted
similar businesses as a result of the congestion and high cost of using Pearson
AirpDrt.
. Lifestyle businesses - There has been a growing trend to site 'information
technology' businesses in environments such as Oro-Medonte where the quality
of life is high and the character of the area is decidedly rural in nature.
. Recreation Centre - Given the location of Oro Centre and the growing popularity
of recreational sports such as baseball and soccer, an opportunity exists to site a
baseball/soccer complex in Oro Centre. Such a facility could be associated with
the Burls Creek Family Event Park. At the present time, there are about 12,000
adult recreational teams playing sDftball in Ontario. Many of these teams
participate in tournaments across Ontario, and generate a number of economic
spin-offs as a result.
I
I
I
I
Retail uses - At the present time, almost all Oro-Medonte residents travel to
Barrie or Orillia for most food and household items. There may be an opportunity
to site local convenience uses in Oro Centre to attract both Township residents

and travelers. In addition, opportunities exist to site a discount mall or potentially
larger facilities in the area to attract people from the wider region to Orc Centre.
It is the Township's opinion that Oro Centre should be the preferred site of a number of
higher order uses, such as hotels/motels, prestige office, commercial and institutional
uses and the other uses identified by TCI Convergence. These are the types of uses
that could, if properly planned and serviced, transform the Oro Centre area into a major
employment area. Such an employment area would have the effect of reducing the ,flow
of jobs and capital out of the municipality to the Cities of Barrie and Orillia, which is the
intent of the Official Plan.
In order to attract the above mentioned higher order uses, the area should be
comprehensively planned on the basis that communal services will be avaifable to service
at least a portion of the area. Full servicing is the key to attracting the types of uses that
are considered desirable for Oro Centre. The types of uses not considered desirable for
Oro Centre include gas stations, drive through restaurants and donut shops, unless they
were perhaps accessory to a larger principal use. On the basis of a review of the
Highway 11 corridor, there are already a number of other properties in more suitable
locations for these types of uses.
In order to attract these higher order uses, a comprehensive marketing plan for the airport
and area should be prepared, The key to this area's development is the airport and its
location between the Cities of Barrie and Orillia. In order for development to occur, there
is a need for a catalyst - a use that will make it attractive for other users to develop. It
would be the objective of the marketing plan to attract the catalyst. Partnerships between
the Township, the Airport Commission and the County of Simcoe and other municipalities
will be required to aggressively promote the airport and Oro Centre.
Environmental Issues - In order to ensure that new development is located where it
will have little or no impact on the environment, Gartner Lee Limited was retained. Their
role was to assess the significance of the area's naturat features. The result of this
assessment was recommendations on where development which will not adversely impact
on the significant natural features of the area can occur. Their main findings are below:
. There are two small creek systems in the study area. All flow to the south towards
Lake Simcoe. Shelswell Creek drains the majority of the Study Area. All of the
creeks, with the exception of Hawkestone Creek, are considered to be warmwater
streams.
The watercourses in the area are recognized in the Official Plan as important
aquatic habitat. As a result, all development is required to be set back a minimum
of 30 metres (100 feet) from these watercourses. Efforts should also be made to
rehabilitate and restore areas immediately adjacent to watercourses that have
been disturbed by agricultural uses. This can occur on a site-specific basis as a
condition of development approval.

. There are two distinct wetland areas within or adjacent to the Study Area. Some
of the weiland areas have recently been classified by the Ministry of Natural
Resources and do not appear on the Official Plan schedules.
. The largest wetland in the area is the Class 5 Shelswell Creek wetland which
occupies a portion of the airport lands and borders on the west end of the Study
Area. A wetland is also located between the Study Area and the airport. It is
recommended that development not be permitted within these wetland areas and
that all development within 120 metres of any wetland be supported by an
Environmental Impact Study.
Transportation Issues - In order to ensure that new development can be
appropriately accessed by an efficient road system, McCormick Rankin was retained.
Their role was to assess existing traffic conditions and to identify constraints and
opportunities. Below are their main findings:
. An average of almost 32,000 vehicles travel along Highway 11 every day in the
study area. It is expected that this number will increase to approXimately 47,000
vehicles per day by the year 201~. Both Highway 11 and the 7th line are
currently operating at acceptable levels of service and can accommodate
additional traffic without the need for major improvements. Major improvements to
Highway 11 may be required after 2013 as a result of the projected increase in
traffic.
The major constraint to new development in Oro Centre is the absence of service
roads. New direct entrances from Highway 11 will not be permitted. Service
roads will therefore be required in each quadrant
Following the initiation of the Secondary Plan process, the Ministry of Transportation
(MTO) indicated that they were in process of carrying out an assessment of all of the
Provincial Highways within the County of Simcoe. The MTO is of the opinion that the
study will recommend that Highway 11 be widened and that the interchanges that
currently exist on the Highway be replaced.
In the long term, the Ministry of Transportation has envisioned that Highway 11 through
the Township Df Oro-Medonte be widened from four lanes to possible six or eight lanes.
New interchanges will also be established at key locations with the widening and the
highway would be brought up to a full freeway with the elimination of existing direct
commercial and residential access points. As well, the Ministry of Transportation
anticipates that property would be required.
I

With respect to the Highway 11/7'" line interchange, the Ministry of Transportation plans
to widen the highway in this location from four lanes to possibly six or eight lanes, include
a new Parclo A-4 interchange. The 7"' Line interchange ramps may require widening from
two lanes to four lanes to accommodated the additional traffic growth within the study'

area. The ultimate right of way width for Highway 11 will be determined by the Ministry of
Transportation while the Concession 7 right-of-way will be approximately 26 metres.
The Ministry of Transportation has requested that the lands that will be the site of the
interchange be identified in the Secondary Plan as an area where new development will
not be permitted. This will allow an interchange at this location to remain viable. The
proposed location of the on/off ramps has an impact on the amount and location of the
lands that could be designated for development within the Secondary Plan study area.
Specifically, development in the north-east quadrant of the study area is no longer
possible, since none of the ramps will be located in this area.
With respect to the north-west corner, access to this quadrant will be problematic since it
will be difficult to site a service road in this quadrant. The northern part of the sDuth-west
quadrant is also affected primarily by the required road widening and the proposed
location of the clover leaf. The only areas that remain highly suited for development in
this regard are located in the southern half Df the south-west quadrant and within the
south-east quadrant.
Given that the timing of the improvements to Highway 11 are unknown, McCormick
Rankin was requested to determine how much development could occur in the area in
advance of the proposed highway improvements. Some of the main conclusions are
below:
1. Background traffic on the 7"' Line and the flyover is expected to grow by only
1% per year.
2. It is anticipated, for the purposes of this report, that full build-out in Oro Centre
will occur in about ten years.
3. If no development was to occur in Oro Centre, increases in background traffic
on Highway 11 alone would necessitate additional capacity on the highway by
the year 2013.
4 The development of Ora Centre could accelerate the need for additional
capacity on Highway 11 by four to five years assuming that 75% of Oro Centre
was built out at that time.
5. The existing road network in Oro Centre is forecast to experience poor levels of
service at build out.
6. On the basis of a sensitivity analysis, 75% of the total developable area could
be developed in Oro Centre without the need' for any local road network
improvements.
7, If more than 75% of the total developable area in Oro Centre was developed,
traffic lights would be required at the two flyover intersections,
I

8. The installation of traffic signals at the flyover intersections would not impact on
the function of Highway 11.
On the basis of the above, the Secondary Plan contains provisions that will require each
developer to submit traffic impact studies to the Ministry of Transportation prior to
development occurring. Once proposed development triggers the need for
improvements, those improvements would need to be carried out before additional
development occurs. It is anticipated that no more than 50 to 75% of the development
anticipated within the Secondary Plan Area can proceed without triggering the need for
improvements.
Servicing Issues - C.C. .atham & Associates were retained to review servicing options
for development in the area. Given that the key constraint to development in Oro Centre
at the present time is the lack of servicing, the development of a servicing strategy to
attract new development to the area is essential. Their role was to assess each of the
water supply and sewage treatment options that are currently available in the study area,
given environmental, spatial and financial constraints. Below is a summary of their
findings:
On the basis of available background information on water supply in the area,
there is little potential to develop a large scale municipal water system in Oro
Centre, since a significant source of groundwater has not been identified. As a
result, it is recommended that a series of small communal systems be developed
instead. Some of the existing wells in the study area may be incorporated into a
new communal system.
. On the basis of the servicing constraints in the area and the desire to attract
higher order uses, C.C. Tatham & Associates recommends that uses within Oro
Centre could generate a maximum of about 380 m3 of sewage per day.

This amount of sewage could be dealt with by one central wastewater treatment
system. The preferred system would be a lagoon/spray irrigation system,
however, other types of systems may also be feasible. Given the land area
required for such a system (26 hectares or 64 acres), the best location for the
system would be at the south end of lot 21 in Concession 8. It should be noted
that the system could be easily phased in as development occurs.
. However, the development of one central wastewater treatment system to service
Oro Centre may not be practical, because of the cost involved in developing the
system. In addition, given that the system is to be located on one property, no
other properties in Oro Centre can be developed until the one property owner
indicates an interest in developing his lands.

. On the basis of the above, it was suggested that the sewage generated by the
proposed uses in Oro Centre could also be dealt with by a number of smaller
stand-alone systems. These smaller systems can be planned to ultimately service
only a quadrant, or planned to be eventually connected to a larger central system
that services the entire area.
. The consideratiDn of such a servicing scheme in a smaller area would ensure, that
as many options as possible are Dpen for potential developers in the Oro Centre
area. Flexibility is the key to attracting the required catalyst to the area. On this
basis, appliciiitions to develop lands in Oro Centre, in the absence of there being
a central wastewater treatment system in place, could be considered, provided
the:
use was considered appropriate;
use conformed with the Oro Centre vision; and,
servicing system will either be abandoned or form part of a larger communal
system servicing in Oro Centre as development occurs.
The MOE, in a letter dated August 10, 2001 supported this concept. The policies
dealing with servicing are found in Section E4.3 of the Secondary Plan.

4.0 LAND USE CONCEPT
On the basis of the above supporting information, below are the main elements of the
land use plan:
. Given that the Study Area is focused on an interchange, it is the intent of the
Secondary Plan to direct the 'high profile' uses to the lands in the vicinity of the
interchange. These 'high profile' uses include hotels, motels, convention centres,
office uses and retail stores. These lands are expected to be serviced with
communal water and sewer services and are designated either 'Commercial' or
'Officellndustrial'. Approximately 4.1 hectares (10.3 acres) is proposed to be
designated 'Commercial' and 35 hectares (87.6 acres) are proposed to be
designated 'Officellndustrial'.
The remainder of the lands availablelsuitable for development in the Study Area
will be set aside for industrial uses which use little or no water and generate
minimal amounts of effluent. These lands will be designated 'Limited Service
Industrial'. The development of buildings and structures in this designation will
be discouraged. Examples of industrial uses in this area would be outdoor
storage uses, trucking terminals and other similar uses. Examples of open space
uses include baseball and soccer fields. It is not expected that these lands would
be serviced by communal water or sewer services.
The lands that are to be the site of the Highway 1117'h Line interchange have
been set aside and placed in a special designation in the Secondary Plan. Over
time, it is anticipated that existing uses within this designation will disappear.
However, until such time as the Ministry of Transportation requires/acquires the
affected properties, existing uses will be permitted to continue to exist. The total
amount of land within the special policy area is 28.8 hectares (71.2 acres).

Of the remaining lands, 3.5 hectares (8.8 acres) is proposed to be designated
Agricultural to recognize their limited developability. An additional 1.1 hectares
(2.8 acres) on the west side of Shelswelf Creek is proposed to be designated
Commercial, to recognize two existing commercial uses. Lastly, about 4.9
hectares (12.2 acres) is proposed to be placed in the Environmental Protection
designation.

with municipal or communal waterfsewage services but that nonetheless can be
used for industrial uses that will contribute to the economic health of the
Township.
b) Permitted uses in the 'Limited Service Industrial' designation are limited to outdoor
storage uses, trucking terminals and similar uses. It is intended that the lands in
this designation be primarily used for land extensive uses. The development of
buildings in this designation will be discouraged and the implementing zoning by-
law shall contain restrictions controlling the amount of building that can be
developed on a lot

Oro-Medonte Official Plan.
E4.3
SEWER AND WATER SERVICES
While it is the intent of the Township that most of the new development will be provided
with communal water and sewage treatment facilities, it is recognized that to start the
initial phases of development, smaller stand-alone systems may be appropriate and
feasible.
Therefore, in the absence of communal servicing, stand-alone systems may be
considered to service uses in the 'Oro Centre Commercial' and 'Oro Centre
Officellndustrial' designations provided that the Township is satisfied that:
~ the use conforms to the designation provided in this Secondary Plan;

I
I
I
I

i~ the proposed servicing system is economical to operate and has no
adverse impact on the environment; and,
iii) the proposed servicing system will either be abandoned or form part of a
larger communal system servicing Oro Centre as development occurs.
a) Under no circumstances will the Township approve development on the basis of a
servicing strategy that precludes the establishment of a comprehensive communal
servicing system in Oro Centre in the future.

b) The development of any new use in the 'Oro Centre Commercial' and 'Oro Centre
Officellndustrial' designations shall be contingent on the preparation and the
approval of a servicing strategy for the quadrant in which the proposed use is
located. It is recognized that, as a result of the plans of the Province of Ontario
to widen and upgrade the Highway 11, three of the four quadrants are capable of
being developed.
The strategy will have to consider the maximum amount of sewage that could be
generated in the quadrant and will have to recognize that the maximum amount
of effluent that can be generated in the Secondary Plan Area is approximately
380m3 of sewage per day, given current knowledge. The boundaries between
the 'Oro Centre Limited Service Industrial' and the 'Oro Centre Commercial' and
'Oro Centre Officellndustrial' designations is considered to be flexible for the
purposes of the strategy.
c) Any servicing strategy must take into account the previously approved strategies
and aim for a master servicing arrangement for Oro Centre. In addition, the
servicing strategy must consider the impacts of development, from a servicing
perspective, on the other areas set aside for development. The servicing strategy
shall also consider the functional servicing relationships between quadrants to
determine how serviceslfacilities that may be connected later on can be designed
to be as adaptable as possible.
d) If a private sewage system is deemed to be desirable and feasible for the first use
in a quadrant, the sewage treatment system must either be the first stage of a
communal system that facilitates future expansion or a self sufficient private
system that will be abandoned when a communal system is established in the
future. If the system is intended to be abandoned in the future once a communal
system is established elsewhere, the Township will require the proponent to
contribute financially to the establishment of a larger system through agreement.
e) In order to ensure that a number of 'interim' servicing schernes are not
established, it shall be a policy of this Plan that when the second development
proceeds, a communal facility must be established which is designed to
accommodate all development in the quadrant. The first development must be
incorporated into the communal facility at this time. It is recognized that the
conversion of a stand-alone system into a system servicing more than one use
may be subject to the requirements of the Environmental Assessment Act. In this
case the proponent would be responsible to implement the necessary process
under the Class EA.

f) The servicing strategy must also recognize that a reasonable amount of servicing
capacity should be assigned to each quadrant, with the amount of capacity being
generally related to the land area in the quadrant, which is net of roads, other
infrastructure and environmental protection areas. This will ensure that all of the
servicing capacity is not taken up in one quadrant.
g) The development of any new use in the Secondary Plan Area shall be supported
by a water resource management report. The purpose of such a report' is to
investigate the impacts of any proposed water taking on water quality and
quantity and provide recommendations on:
~ how to maintain or enhance the natural hydrological characteristics of the
water resource;
i~ how to minimize or eliminate the effect of the proposed use on the
groundwater recharge function;
iii) how to minimize or eliminate the effect of the proposed use on the quality
and quantity of drinking water in adjacent private and municipal wells;
iv) how to maintain or enhance sensitive groundwater recharge/discharge
areas, aquifers and headwater areas;
v) whether it is required to monitor water budgets for groundwater aquifers
and surface water features: and,
vQ how to ensure that the quality of the watercourses affected by the
development are maintained.
h) It is the intent of this Secondary Plan that uses in 'Oro Centre Limited Service
Industrial' designation generate a minimal amount of effluent. On this basis, any
application for development in this area must be supported by a hydrogeological
assessment which confirms that a minimal amount of water and effluent will be
generated. The assessment must also identify the impacts of the proposed use
on the ability of the uses within the 'Oro Centre Commercial' and 'Oro Centre
Office/Commercial' designation to be serviced by full communal water and sewer
services.

THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK
a) It is the intent of the Township to ensure that the road system operates safely,
efficiently and reliably.
b) The road system must be developed in a cost-effective manner. Infrastructure
should be affordable and funded through municipal taxes, development charges
and/or other appropriate means.
c) Schedule 'A' identifies the existing and ultimate road network~ The right-of-way
widths for the various roads within Oro Centre are generally as follows:
Q Highway 11 - To be determined by the Ministry of Transportation;
iQ 7"' Line - 26 metres; and,
iii) Service Roads - 20 to 26 metres.
d) The exact location and configuration of the proposed service roads will be
determined during the development approval process,
e) All new road allowances shall be dedicated to the municipality during the
development approval process.
f) The timing of the improvements to Highway 11 contemplated by the Ministry of
Transportation were unknown at the time this Secondary Plan was approved.
The Province will be responsible for the upgrading of Highway 11. The Province
and the Township will share in the cost of the upgrade to the 7th Line interchange
based on benefiting needs. At the time this Secondary Plan was approved, a
cost sharing agreement between the Province and the Township had not been
established. Such an agreement, which specified the responsibilities of the
Province and the Township and stipulating the trigger for required improvement
will be required before any development proceeds in Oro Centre and before any
of the lands are zoned to permit development. With respect to access to abutting
properties, there will be a need for agreements between the Province, the
Township and developers respecting individual access by a service road to
abutting properties.
g) All new uses will be directly accessed by service roads. Interim entrances to the
7"' Line may be permitted in advance of service road construction, subject to the
approval of the Ministry of Transportation,

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
All commercial, industrial and institutional development proposals shall be supported by
a Stormwater Management (SWM) report. The content and depth of the SWM report
shall be determined when the development is proposed. It will be one of the objectives
to show how the runoff from development will be managed to maintain or improve the
receiving watercourse and its ecological functions.
-
The SWM Report shall be prepared by a qualified professional to the satisfaction of the
Township and the appropriate agencies and be prepared in accordance with The
Stormwater Management Practices Planning and Design Manual (1994) or its successor
and shall:
~
a) provide recommendations on a stormwater quantity system which ensures that
post-development run-off rates will not be greater than the pre-development run-
off rates for storms up to and including the 1 :100 year storm event;
b) document the possible impacts of development on watershed flow regimes
including their interconnection with groundwater resources:
c) provide recommendations on how to maintain pre-development water quality and
improve the quality of run-off where appropriate;
d) determine and describe the necessary measures required to be undertaken
during construction to mitigate the potential negative impact of development.
All stormwater management facilities in a Plan of Subdivision shall be placed in the
Environmental Protection Zone in the implementing zoning by-law to reflect the potential
for these lands to be flooded and to ensure that their intended use is recognized.
Stormwater management facilities for condominium developments and other large single
uses may be privately owned and maintained, Agreements with the municipality may be
required as a condition of approval, to provide for their continued maintenance.

a) This Plan is a statement of policy. It is intended as a guide to the development of
Oro Centre. Some flexibility in interpretation is permitted, provided the general
intent of the goals and policies of this Plan are maintained.
b) The various items identified on Schedules 'A' are intended to show general areas
and the boundaries are flexible and may vary without Amendment to the Plan,
except where designations are established by fixed boundaries such as river val-
leys and roads or where specifically stated to be fixed in the policies of this Plan.
c) Where lists or examples of permitted uses are provided, they are intended to
indicate the possible range and type of uses that are to be considered. Specific
uses not listed, but considered by the Township to be similar to the listed uses
and to conform to the general intent of the applicable land use designation may

E4.7.2
Existing Land Uses
a) Existing land uses throughout Oro Centre are expected to continue to exist in the
short to mid-term, and in some cases, in the long-term. Therefore, uses that
existed prior to the approval of this Plan, and which do not conform with the land
use policies of this Secondary Plan, shall be deemed to be legal non-conforming
uses.
b)
Minor extensions or expansions of such uses shall be permitted without
Amendment to this Plan, provided that the intent of this Plan is not compromised
and the tests prescribed below are met. In consideration of such matters
particular attention shall be given to ensuring that:
.
.
i) the desire for communal water and sewage treatment facilities is not
compromised or precluded in the long-term by the expansion or change;
ii) the road pattern envisioned by this Plan is not compromised or precluded
in the long-term by the expansion or change;
iii) the expansion or change improves an existing and identified problem.
iv) that the proposed expansion or enlargement of the existing use shall not
unduly aggravate the situation created by the existence of the use,
especially in regard to the requirements of the zoning by-law;
v) that the characteristics of the existing use and the extension or
enlargement shall be examined with regard to noise, vibration, fumes,
smoke, dust, odour, lighting, parking and traffic generation;
vi) that the neighbouring uses will be protected where necessary by the
provisions for landscaping, buffering or screening, devices and measures
to reduce nuisances and, where necessary, by regulations for alleviating
adverse effects caused by outside storage, lighting or advertising signs;
vii) provisions and regulations that may be applied to the proposed extension
or enlargement are extended , where feasible, to the existing use in order
to improve its compatibility with the surrounding area; and,
vii) that in all cases where an existing use seriously affects the amenity of the
surrounding area, consideration shall be given to the possibility of
ameliorating such conditiDns, as a condition of approving an application
for extension or enlargement of the existing use, especially where public
health and welfare are directly affected.
