Dept. Report No. To: Prepared By:
BP 2006-040 Planning Advisory Adam Kozlowski

Subject: Department:
Council Zoning By-law Amendment Building & Planning
for Muriel Jamieson, Services
C.ofW. Concession 1, Part of Lot 20 Date:
(Orillia) October 20, 2006
Motion # 555 line 14 South R.M. File #: D1435262
Application # 2006-ZBA-10
Date: Roll #: 030-012-04300
CKGROUND:
The purpose of this report is to consider the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application submitted
by Muriel Jamieson on August 2, 2006. This rezoning must be obtained as aconOltlon of approval for
consent application 2006-B-02, which was granted by the Committee of Adjustment on February 16,
2006.
The rezoning application applies to lands described as Concession 1, Part of Lot 20, in the Township of
Oro-Medonte (formerly Grillia). The subject land is proposed to be rezoned from the Residential One
(R1) Zone to the Agricultural/Rural (AlRU) Zone. Consent application 2006-8-02 resulted in a small
portion of a Residential (R1) zoned parcel being added to the abutting parcel that is zoned
of provisional approval, the applicant must apply and obtain a rezoning, which
consistent on
e To discourage the development of scattered residential, commercial and industrial uses in the
area surrounding Barrie and Orima.
8 To maintain and preserve the rural character of the area by clearly defining the urban boundary
of the Cities of Barrie and Orillia.
Ie To protect lands adjacent to the two urban municipalities from incompatible development to
ensure that the expansion of their urban service areas in the future is cost-effective and efficient.
Subsection D11.3.2 recognizes boundary adjustments, provided that no new building lot is created, and
" the boundary adjustment will not affect the viability of agriculture. As the praperty~to wn:ch ~andsare
being conveyed does not propose to remove active agricultural land from production and does not
exhibit evidence of past or present farming activities, this application will have no negative impact on the
viability of agriculture.
With respect to the Environmental Protection Two designation, both the subject property and lands to be
conveyed contain significant tree cover. The following objectives are listed in Section F1 of the Official
Plan:
. To maintain and enhance the ecological integrity of the natural heritage system.
@ To minimize the loss or fragmentation of significant woodland features and the habitats and
ecological functions they provide.
. To protect significant wildlife habitat.
As stated above, this application does not propose to create a new building lot, and as both the lands to
be retained and conveyed contain single detached dwellings, it is not expected that any further land
clearance will occur for development. As such, this application does not propose to further fragment
significant woodlands found in the area, nor threaten the ecological integrity of the Township's natural
heritage system. Therefore, this application generally complies with the objectives found in Section D11
and F1 of the Township Official Plan.
In February 2006, the applicant was granted a conditional consent (boundary adjustment) which
resulted in approximately 0.52 ha (1.29 ac) of a residential parcel, located at 555 Line 14 South, being
added to an abutting Agricultural/Rural (AlRU) zoned property located at 543 Line 14 South. The
boundary adjustment application effectively adds a small stand of mature trees to the abutting lot, and
adds approximately 30 metres (98 feet) of frontage to 543 Line 14 South. Further, the subject property,
being zoned R1, will retain a total frontage of 31 metres (102 feet), and an area of 0.29 hectares (0.71
ac), both dimensions being in compliance with the Township Zoning By-law.
The existing residential lot located at 555 Line 14 South is zoned "Residential One (R1) Zone" by the
Township's Zoning By-law. Staff is of the opinion that the land to be conveyed from the subject property
should be rezoned to maintain a consistent Agricultural/Rural zoning on the abutting lot. Therefore, the
application's to rezone 0.52 ha (1.29 ac) addition Residential One )
is
The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment would appear to conform with the intent and policies of
Official Plan and Zoning By-law. On this basis, it is recommended that the Zoning By-law Amendment
Application 2006-ZBA-10 proceed to a statutory Public Meeting.
COMMENDA TION(S):
On the basis of the above, it is recommended that Planning Advisory Committee recommend to Council:
. '
1. THAT Report BP 2006-040 be received and adopted; and
2. That the Planning Advisory Committee recommend to Council that Zoning By-law Amendment
Application 2006-ZBA-10, Concession 1, Part Lot 20 (Orillia), proceed to a Statutory Public
Meeting in accordance with the provisions of the Planning Act.
