4. And that the applicant be advised of Council's decision under the Director,
Development Services signature.
Background:
The subject property possesses a lot area of approximately 405 square metres (0.15
acres), a frontage on Lakeshore Road East of approximately 24 metres (80 feet), a depth
of approximately 24 metres (80 feet) and presently contains a dwelling, two accessory
buildings, all in disrepair. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing 1 -storey
dwelling and construct a new 2 storey dwelling with a main floor garage.
The property is zoned Shoreline Residential (SR) in the Township's Zoning By-law and
the applicant has requested the following relief from By-law 97-95:
i acme n i — �ianaaras Tor z:�noreline mesiaential (bii) Lone:
Required by Zoning By -taw
1) Minimum Front Yard: 7.5 metres
2) Minimum Rear Yard: 7.5 metres
3) Minimum Interior Side Yard: 3.0 metres
4) 1 Minimum First Floor Area: 90 square metes
Analysis:
Provincial Policies and County Official Plan
Proposed by Applicant
6 metres
6 metres
1.5 metres
29.7 square metres
The subject lands are not within a designated settlement area and the policies of the
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe do not affect the review of this
application.
The lands are subject to the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) and to the Lake Simcoe
Protection Plan, both of which contain policies pertaining to Natural Heritage and
Natural Hazards. The application represents limited, resource-based (shoreline area)
residential re -development that is consistent with the PPS and which conforms to the
Lake Simcoe Protection Plan.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated "Shoreline" by the Official Plan. Permitted uses in the
Shoreline designation include single detached dwellings and the Official Plan establishes
the following objectives for the Shoreline designation:
Development Services July 16, 2016
Report No. DS2015-062 Page 2 of 9
Page 41 of 159
6.a) 6:00 p.m. Report No. DS2015-062, Derek Witlib, Manager,...
• To maintain the existing character of this predominantly residential area.
• To protect the natural features of the shoreline area and the immediate shoreline.
Based on Development Services Staff's visits to the site and the surrounding area, as
well based on a review of 2012 aerial photography, the proposed development of the
lands appears to be similar to much of the existing development in the area in terms of
the land use (single detached residential) and setbacks. The proposed development
would, therefore, appear to be consistent with the existing land uses and built form of
the surrounding area. Staff is of the opinion that the application conforms to the Official
Plan.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law, and is the
variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Shoreline Residential (SR) Zone in the Township's
Zoning By-law 97-95, which permits dwellings and accessory buildings.
The proposed northerly side yard setback of 1.5 metres (approximately 5 feet) is still
considered adequate to provide access around the dwelling and maintain a spatial
separation from the adjacent property. The proposed front yard setback of 6 metres
(approximately 20 feet) would provide adequate space for a driveway, without forcing
parking to encroach onto the road allowance. The proposed 6 metre (20 feet) rear yard
setback would allow for a rear yard amenity area that will have sufficient space to be
functional. Despite the relatively small first floor area (29.7 square metres or 97 square
feet), the actual foot -print size of the proposed building would be 214 square metres
(2304 square feet). The applicant has proposed a house design where much of the first
(ground) floor would consist of garage and storage space.
Overall, Planning Staff is of the opinion that, given the small size of the existing lot, the
proposed variances are reasonable for the purposes of the redevelopment of the lands
and the applicant has supplied information to demonstrate that the development can be
serviced by a tertiary (Waterloo Biofilter) septic system.
Based on the above, the requested variances are considered to meet the purpose and
intent of the Zoning By-law and would be considered appropriate for the desirable
development of the lot.
Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variances are considered to conform to the general intent of the Official
Plan, to meet the general intent of the Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable
development of the lot, and is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character
or uses of the surrounding area, the variances are considered to be minor.

Application for Minor Variance. It is our understanding that the applicant is requesting relief from
Section 4.0 Table 131 of Zoning Bylaw 97-95 to allow for
• A 6 metre front yard setback where the bylaw requires a minimum 7.5 metres
• A 6 metre rear yard setback where the bylaw requires a minimum 7.5 metres
• A 1.5 metre interior side yard setback where the bylaw requires a minimum 3.0 metres
• A 29.7 square metre first floor area where the bylaw requires a minimum 90 square metres
The property in question is adjacent to the floodplain associated with Barilla Creek and is
approximately 90 metres from the shoreline of Lake Simcoe.
The LSRCA has reviewed this application in the context of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), the
Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP), Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the Conservation Authorities
Act. Based on our review, we have no objection to any approval of this application.

Background:
The subject property is 0.27 hectares (0.67 acres) and contains a single detached
dwelling. The applicant is proposing to construct an accessory building for storage of
recreational vehicles.
The property is zoned Rural Residential Two (RUR2) in the Township's Zoning By-law
and the applicant is requesting the following relief from By-law 97-95:
Section 5.1.3.a — Permitted locations for
detached accessory buildings
Section 5.1.4 — Maximum height of any
detached accessory building or structure
Section 5.1.6 — Maximum floor area of
any one detached accessory building

The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Sections: 1.1.4 — Rural Areas
and 2.3 — Agriculture are applicable to this application. These sections have been
reviewed and Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies in
the PPS.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Agricultural in the Township's Official Plan, and
Section C1 of the Official Plan contains policies related to the use and development of
lands in this designation. Permitted uses include single detached dwellings and
accessory buildings, as outlined in section C1.2. One of the Official Plan's stated
objectives (Section CIA) of the Agricultural designation is "to protect land suitable for
agricultural production from development and land uses unrelated to agriculture."
The subject property does not permit for agricultural production and although the
proposed structure is not directly intended for agricultural uses, the structure -type fits in
with the agricultural surroundings. Furthermore, the proposed detached garage is

accessory to the single detached dwelling which is a permitted used. Based on the
above, the requested variances conform to the Official Plan.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoninq By-law, and is the
variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Rural Residential Two (RUR2) Zone in the Township's
Zoning By-law 97-95. According to the Township's Zoning By-law, an accessory
building is permitted pursuant to Section 5.1. The proposed development of the lands
requires relief from permitted location, maximum floor area and maximum height for
accessory buildings in the By-law.
Accessory Building is defined in the Zoning By-law as "a detached building or structure,
the use of which is naturally and normally incidental to, subordinate to, exclusively
devoted to, the principal use or main building on the same lot." The Zoning By-law
restricts the size of accessory buildings to ensure that such structures remain
secondary and subordinate to the main residential use of the property, as well as to
prevent over -development that would detract from the rural character of the area. The
primary building on the lot is about 130 square metres which is larger than the proposed
accessory building. However, it is important to consider that "secondary" is not only
defined by size. Based on the proposed use of the building, the accessory building
remains subordinate to the residential use.
Upon site visit, Staff has identified that the proposed location appears to have little to no
impact on the neighbouring properties. The single detached dwelling is located 32
metres from the front property line and the applicant has requested permission to
construct the detached garage 18 metres from the front property line. The Zoning By-
law prohibits accessory buildings in the front yard of residential -zoned properties to
insure that the streetscape remains primarily residential. However, accessory buildings
are permitted to be located in front of the house for Agricultural/Rural Zoned properties,
as the By-law is not intended to prohibit storage buildings on such properties which
typically have greater setbacks and less dense development. Although the subject
property is zoned Rural Residential Two, it is immediately adjacent to lands zoned
Agricultural/Rural. Based on the location of the septic system, there is no other location
for a detached structure on the property. As the property is surrounded by open field
and the proposed location of the structure does not obstruct the view of the dwelling
from the street, it is considered an appropriate location for the structure.
For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered to meet the
general intent of the Zoning By-law, and would be considered appropriate for the
desirable development of the lot.
Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variance is related to the construction of an accessory building is
considered to conform to the general intent of the Official Plan, to meet the general
intent of the Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable development of the lot,
and is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character of the surrounding
area, the variance is considered to be minor.

measured to the culvert under the drive.
4'h picture is of the additional 15 meters added to the west side of the property to accommodate the new septic bed where the
garage will sit mostly on.

Hello Teresa and Michael,
I have been contacted by Andrew Plunkett regarding the construction of an accessory structure on his property off Old
Barrie Road. The noted parcel appears to be partially regulated by NVCA regulations, however this area is limited to the
extreme northwest corner of the parcel. The proposed work as detailed in the image above occurs completely outside of
the NVCA regulated area and therefore no permits or approvals will be required for this work from the NVCA,
This email may serve as a clearance in the matter under the NVCA's mandate being Ontario Regulation 172/06,
established under the Conservation Authorities Act.
If you have any questions regarding this project, property, or NVCA regulations do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Thank you and have a great evening.

Background:
Development Proposal
The Owner proposes to construct a 139.35 square metre detached accessory building,
and requests variance to the following Section of Zoning By-law 97-95:
1) Section 5.1.6 — The maximum floor area of a detached accessory building
Required: 70 square metres (753.5 square feet)
Proposed: 139.35 square metres (1,500 square feet)
The Applicant's Site Plan is attached in Schedule 2.
Property Description
The subject property is 0.38 hectares (0.94 acres) and contains a single detached
dwelling, two sheds, a sea container (160 sq.ft.) and a temporary pump shelter (240
sq.ft.) for storage purposes. The applicant is proposing to build a larger accessory
building (1,500 sq.ft.) and remove the sea container and temporary shelter upon
completion of the new accessory building.
Oro-Medonte Official Plan
The subject lands are designated "Rural Residential" by the Official Plan (OP). Permitted
uses include single detached dwellings, home occupations, bed & breakfast
establishments and accessory uses.
Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject lands are zoned Rural Residential Two (RUR2) Zone. Permitted uses in the
RUR2 Zone include single detached dwellings, and accessory structures such as
detached garages and storage sheds.
Section 5.1.4 permits a maximum accessory structure height of 4.5 metres.
Section 5.1.5 permits a maximum accessory structure lot coverage of 5%.
Section 5.1.6 permits a maximum accessory structure floor area of 70 square metres.
Provincial Policies
The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Section 1.1.4 — Rural Areas in
Municipalities apply to this application. This section has been reviewed and Staff is of
the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies in the PPS.

6.c) 6:30 p.m. Report No. DS2015-057, Catherine McLean, Plan...
Limited Residential uses and their accessory structures are permitted in the Rural and
Agricultural Lands designation of the County Official Plan.
Analysis:
The Planning Act's Four Minor Variance Tests
1. Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Rural Residential in the Township's Official Plan, and
Section C4 of the Official Plan contains policies related to the use and development of
lands in this designation. Permitted uses include single detached dwellings and
accessory uses. The Official Plan's stated objective (Section C4.1) of the Rural
Residential designation is to "recognize existing estate, country estate and chalet
residential developments in the Township." The proposed detached storage garage is
accessory to the single detached dwelling which is a permitted use. Based on the
above, the requested variance conforms to the Official Plan.
2. Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law?
3. Is the variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Rural Residential Two (RUR2) Zone in the Township's
Zoning By-law 97-95. According to the Township's Zoning By-law, an accessory
building is permitted pursuant to Section 5.1. The Zoning By-law contains performance
standards for accessory structure height, floor area and lot coverage to ensure that the
primary permitted use of the subject lands remains predominant, and to prevent
overdevelopment of residentially -zoned properties with accessory structures. The
proposed development of the lands would comply with setback and height
requirements, but requires relief from the Committee to exceed the maximum floor area
requirement. The proposed variance maintains the intent of the zoning by-law and is
considered appropriate for the following reasons:
The proposed storage garage would have a floor area of 139.35 square metres.
The maximum floor area for a garage is 70 square metres to ensure that individual
detached accessory structures remain secondary and subordinate to the primary
permitted use of the lands. In this case, the existing dwelling has a floor area of
245.26 square metres; therefore, the proposed garage, at 139.35 square metres,
would remain smaller than and secondary to the dwelling.
No negative visual or environmental impacts would result from the proposed
development. The subject residential property is large at 0.38 hectares (0.94 acres).
The proposed storage garage would be located in the rear yard, with a setback of
over 90 metres from the front property line and it would not be seen from Conder
Drive. In addition, the accessory building would be screened by mature tree cover
and natural vegetation from neighbouring parcels.

Page 69 of 159
6.c) 6:30 p.m. Report No. DS2015-057, Catherine McLean, Plan...
• There is a Janeway running along the northern side of the property which would be
used to access the rear yard for construction.
• Once the proposed storage garage is constructed, the temporary sea container and
storage shelters would be removed therefore cleaning up the property.
• Other properties at the north end of Conder Drive have large detached accessory
structures in the rear yard, similar to the storage garage being proposed.
• Notwithstanding the requested variance, the proposed storage garage would
otherwise comply with all other applicable provisions of Zoning By-law 97-95.
For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered to meet the
general intent of the Zoning By-law, and would be considered appropriate for the
desirable development of the lot.
4. Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variance is related to the construction of an accessory building is
considered to conform to the general intent of the Official Plan, to meet the general
intent of the Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable development of the lot,
and is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character of the surrounding
area, the variance is considered to be minor.

Property Description
The subject property is a "waterfront" lot, having an area of 0.198 hectares (0.49 acres),
30.48 metres (100 ft.) of frontage on Lakeshore Road West and 33.05 metres (108.43
ft.) of frontage on Lake Simcoe.
The property currently contains a single detached dwelling. The existing dwelling had
received a minor variance (Application A-14/03) in 2003 to permit an interior side yard
setback of 1.88 metres (6.17 feet).
Surrounding parcels to the east and west along the south side of Lakeshore Road West
consist of lakefront properties having a mix of seasonal and year-round dwellings.
Properties to the north consist of low density residential dwellings. A map of the subject
lands and site photos are in Schedule 1. A review of the surrounding area also reveals
that a number of the neighbouring residential dwellings have also received variances to
permit reduced front and side yard setbacks.
Analysis:
Oro-Medonte Official Plan
The subject land is designated "Shoreline" by the Official Plan (OP). Permitted uses
include single detached dwellings and accessory structures, home occupations, small
scale commercial uses, public parks, and bed & breakfast establishments.
Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject lands are zoned Shoreline Residential (SR) Zone. Permitted uses in the SR
Zone include single detached dwellings, and accessory structures such as detached
garages, storage sheds and boathouses.
Simcoe County Official Plan
Limited residential uses are permitted in the Rural and Agricultural Lands designation of
the County Official Plan. Section 3.13 — Lake Simcoe Protection Plan applies to this
application.
Provincial Policies
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Sections 1. 1.4 — Rural Areas in
Municipalities, 2.1 — Natural Heritage, Section 2.2 — Water and Section 3.1 Natural
Hazards apply to this application.
As the subject lands front on Lake Simcoe, the shoreline is contained within the regulated
area in the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan under the Lake Simcoe Shoreline policies.

The property is under the jurisdiction of the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
(LSRCA). Any new buildings or structures proposed within the regulated area are subject
to review and permit from the LSRCA. As of the preparation of this report, Development
Services Staff is awaiting comments from the LSRCA relating to Ontario Regulation
197/06 under the Conservation Authorities Act. The members of the Committee should
have significant regard to any comments or requirements of the Lake Simcoe Region
Conservation Authority.
The four tests for a minor variance will be analyzed upon receiving the additional
information.

A Watershed for
File No: 2015-A-16
IMS File No: PVOC1513C2
Thank you for circulating the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority on the above -noted
Application for Minor Variance. It is our understanding that the applicant is requesting relief from
Section 4.0, Table B1 of Zoning Bylaw 97-95 to allow for:
• A 1.6 metre interior side yard setback where the bylaw requires a minimum 3 metres
• A 4 metre front yard setback where the bylaw requires a minimum 7.5 metres
The property in question is on the shoreline of Lake Simcoe and adjacent to Lakeview Creek. It is
subject to the shoreline erosion and flooding hazards of the lake and watercourse. The applicant is
proposing to demolish the existing residence and replace it with a new single dwelling unit.
The LSRCA has reviewed this application in the context of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), the
Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP), Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the Conservation Authorities
Act.
Based on our review, we recommend that any approval of this application be deferred until the
following information is provided to our satisfaction:
1. A site plan illustrating the existing building location in comparison to the proposed building
location with all related setbacks to all property lines provided.
2. A topographic survey/grading plan that illustrates existing and proposed grading of the site.
This plan must demonstrate that the proposed house and garage can be floodproofed as per
the LSRCA Watershed Development Guidelines (2015) and maintain existing surface drainage
patterns.

Recommendation(s): Requires Actions For Information Only(
It is recommended:
1. That Report DS2015-063 be received and adopted.
2. That Minor Variance Application 2015-A-17 (Poge), being to permit construction
of a detached garage on the subject lands, be approved.
3. That approval of the application be subject to the following conditions:
a) Notwithstanding Table A5 — Environmental Protection Zone (permitted uses)
of Zoning By-law 97-95, the proposed detached garage shall otherwise
comply with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning By -Law;
b) That the proposed buildings/structures on the property be substantially and
proportionally in conformity with the dimensions as set out on the application
and sketches submitted and approved by the Committee;
c) That the proposed buildings/structures on the property be in conformity with
the dimensions as set out in the permit approved by the Nottawasaga Valley
Conservation Authority;
d) That the appropriate zoning certificate and building permit be obtained from
the Township only after the Committee's decision becomes final and binding.
4. That the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Director,
Development Services signature.
Background:
Development Proposal
The owner proposes to construct a 7.3 metres by 8.5 metres (24 feet by 28 feet) detached
garage, and requests relief from the permitted uses of the Environmental Protection (EP)
Zone, which does permit buildings or structures, other than those required for flood or

Applicant's Site Plan is attached in Schedule 2.
Property Description
The subject lands are a rural lot, having an area of 0.95 hectares (2.37 acres) and 53.3
metres (175 ft.) of frontage on Warminster Sideroad. The property contains a 1 -storey
dwelling and 2 sheds. A watercourse meanders along the easterly property boundary
and there is a valley associated with the watercourse.
Surrounding parcels to the south, east and west consist of rural residential lots, and lands
to the north are in agricultural uses.
Oro-Medonte Official Plan
The subject lands are designated "Agricultural" by the Official Plan. Permitted uses
include single detached dwellings and accessory structures, agricultural uses and
structures, and bed & breakfast establishments.
Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject lands are zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone and Environmental
Protection (EP) Zone. Permitted uses in the A/RU Zone include single detached
dwellings, and accessory structures such as detached garages and storage sheds. None
of these structures are permitted in the EP Zone. Both the proposed garage and the
applicant's existing house are located within the EP Zone.
Analysis:
1) Do the variances conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Agricultural in the Township Official Plan. The
policies of the Official Plan permit single detached dwellings and accessory buildings to
residential uses on lands within this designation. The proposal seeks to modify zoning
provisions that apply to an otherwise permitted use in the underlying designation, and
would otherwise conform to the general intent of the Official Plan.
2) Does the variance maintain the general intent of the Zoning By-law?
3) Is the variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
Zoning By-law 97-95 Prohibits structures in the EP Zone because EP zoned lands
represent wetlands, river valleys and other environmentally sensitive areas whose
features and function might be negatively impacted by development, or where the
placement of development might put people or property at risk from natural hazards.
Planning Staff notes that the proposed building location is on high ground, away from
the watercourse. The applicant has applied for and obtained a permit from the
Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) to allow the proposed detached
garage. It is a mandate of the NVCA to assess the suitability of development in relation

to environmentally se&ew�Q0aad-R@iwarN@.aPc$"n%jQRjBlARpt S\M ld;fAla nager,...
to the NVCA's expertise in this regard, that there will be no unacceptable negative
impacts on the natural features of the lands or on the proposed building. Therefore,
Staff is satisfied that this application maintains the purpose and intent of the Zoning By-
law and that the development is appropriate for the desirable development of the lot.
1) Is the variance minor?
As the application conforms to the general intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By -Law
and is appropriate for the desirable development of the lot, the proposed variance is
considered to be minor.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: I
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Development
Services Committee be appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board and Council chooses
to defend the Committee's decision.

Analysis:
Provincial Policies
The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Section 2.1 — Natural Heritage is
applicable to this application.
Development and site alteration shall not be permitted in significant wetlands in
Ecoregions 5E, 6E and 7E" (Policy 2.1.4). Figure 1 of the PPS identifies the subject land
is within Ecoregion 6E and 7E and therefore the following applies:
"Development and site alteration shall not be permitted on adjacent lands to the
natural heritage features and areas identified in [policy 2.1.4] unless the
ecological function of the adjacent lands has been evaluated and it has been
demonstrated that there will be no negative impacts on the natural features or on
their ecological functions" (Policy 2.1.8).
County Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Greenland in the County's Official Plan, and Section
3.7 of the Official Plan contains policies related to the use and development of lands in
this designation. Specifically, "development and/or site alteration is not permitted within
provincially significant wetlands and the habitat of threatened or endangered species.
New uses proposed adjacent to these areas are not permitted unless it can be
demonstrated that they do not negatively impact the natural features and associated
ecological functions" (Section 3.7.5).
The County of Simcoe's Planning Department was circulated Notice of the minor
variance application on July 2, 2015 and as of the writing of this report, Township Staff
have not received comments.
Township Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Agricultural and Environmental Protection One in the
Township's Official Plan; Sections C1 and B2 respectively, contain policies related to
the use and development of lands in these designations. Permitted uses within the
Agricultural designation include single detached dwellings and accessory buildings, as
outlined in section C1.2.
The Environmental Protection One designation is captured because there a Significant
Woodland on the subject property, and a Provincially Significant Wetland on the
adjacent property — as identified on Schedule B of the Official Plan, Natural Features.
More specifically, the subject property is entirely within the 12.0 metre buffer of the
Hawkestone Swamp and therefore Section B2.4 `Adjacent Lands' applies:

Page 96 of 159
6.f) 7:15 p.m. Report No. DS2015-060, Adrianna Spinosa, Plan...
"No development shall be permitted on these adjacent lands unless an
Environmental Impact Study and a Management Plan are completed in
accordance with Section B5.1.1 and approved by Council, subject to the
comments of the appropriate agencies."
Staff recognize the proximity to the wetland and that the subject lands have already
been developed in the form of a single detached dwelling. On this basis, further
discussion is required with the LSRCA and the County in terms of the scope of any EIS
or the potential to waive this requirement.
Lake Simcoe Protection Plan
The Lake Simcoe Protection Plan implements objectives and development policies to
protect and enhance our natural environment for future generations. The subject
property is entirely regulated by the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority given
its proximity to a Provincially Significant Wetland. The LSRCA was circulated Notice of
the minor variance application on July 2, 2015 and as of the writing of this report,
Township Staff have not received comments.
Although the Township Staff are anticipating receipt of comments from the Lake Simcoe
Region Conservation Authority and the County of Simcoe shortly, a full analysis cannot
be conducted until such time. Given the proximity to the PSW, it would be appropriate to
defer the application until both agencies have provided formal comments regarding the
proposed development.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee of
Adjustment be appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board and Council chooses to defend
the Committee's decision.
Policies/Legislation:
• Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13
• Provincial Policy Statement, 2014
• Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2006
• Lake Simcoe Protection Plan
• Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan
• Township of Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law No. 97-95, as amended
• County of Simcoe Official Plan
Corporate Strategic Goals:
Quality of Life
To contribute to an enriched quality of life for residents by maintaining Oro-Medonte's
natural beauty and country -like character and by providing opportunities that encourage
community participation in activities and recreational programs.

Conclusion:
Based on the plan submitted, Planning Staff recommends that Variance Application

Conclusion:
At this time the Township has not yet received comments from a number of agencies
whose comments may have a material impact on Staff's recommendation. Also there is
in inconsistency in one of the lot frontage dimensions, which the applicant will need to
clarify. For these reasons Staff recommends to the Committee that the application be
deferred to a future meeting once all the required responses and information are
received.

Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only
It is recommended:
1. That Report No. DS2015-065 be received and adopted.
2. The Development Services Committee grant provisional consent to Application
2015-B-10 to create an easement for utility purposes, subject to the following
conditions:
a) That one copy of a Registered Reference Plan of the subject lands prepared
by an Ontario Land Surveyor be submitted to the Committee Secretary -
Treasurer;
b) That the applicant's solicitor prepare and submit a copy of the proposed
conveyance for the parcel severed, for review by the Municipality;
c) That all municipal taxes be paid to the Township of Oro-Medonte; and
d) That the conditions of consent imposed by the Committee be fulfilled within
one year from the date of the giving of the notice.
3. And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's
decision under the Director, Development Services signature.
Background:
The purpose of the application is to convey a utility easement for the purpose of
providing a power line to The Height Ski and Country Club. The proposed easement
would be located within the area identified on the draft Reference Plan supplied by the
applicant (See Schedule 2). The proposed easement is located on lands owned by
Skyline Horseshoe Valley Inc. The lands presently support a snow -making pond and a
building housing associated mechanical equipment. The easement is to be located
between the pond and the building.

Analysis:
The purpose of application 2015-13-10 is to permit an easement for power line purposes
and no new lots are proposed to be created as a result of the easement request.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be
appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board and Council chooses to defend the Committee's
decision.
Policies/Legislation:
Provincial Policy Statement 2014
The intent of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is to build strong and healthy
communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development
patterns. The PPS directs that designated settlement areas are to be the focus of growth,
with a mix of densities and land uses, for the purposes of achieving the efficient use of
land and infrastructure. The proposed easement would accommodate infrastructure as
contemplated by the PPS.
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
The application has been reviewed with reference to the Place to Grow policies that
have been in place since 2006. In reviewing the Places to Grow Growth Plan, there are
no direct consent policies that apply to the proposed easement application.
In analyzing the proposed severance for the easement, staff reviewed the County of
Simcoe Official Plan, Provincial Policy Statement and Places to Grow legislation. Given
the subject lands are located within an identified Settlement Area, the proposed
severance constitutes a permitted use in accordance with the Settlement Area policies of
the Official Plan and is consistent with the County of Simcoe and Provincial policies,
including the Growth Plan.
County of Simcoe Official Plan
The Township has circulated the application to the County of Simcoe Planning
Department, who has not commented on this application as of the preparation of this
report. In reviewing the proposed consent application for the proposed easement, the
County of Simcoe Official Plan does not have any specific policies in regards to
easements. It is staff's opinion that the County Official Plan does not regulate or prohibit
such an easement for utility purposes.

Township Official Plan
The subject lands are located within the Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area and are
designated Horseshoe Valley Village according to Schedule `D' to the Township's Official
Plan. Section C14.3.3.1 of the Official Plan states that the principal use of land in the
Horseshoe Valley Village designation shall be a variety of non-residential uses
commercial and service uses, but also permits medium density housing such as
townhouses, apartments and multiple dwellings. Section C.14.3.1.2 and C14.3.3.2 of the
Official Plan contain detailed policies pertaining to the development of the lands in
Horseshoe Valley in relation to various land use and infrastructure considerations (i.e.
timing/phasing of development, traffic, County Road improvements, stormwater
management and servicing) that have been identified in a Comprehensive Development
Plan for the area that was adopted by Council in 2003.
The proposed consent for an easement for power line purposes would provide the ability
for these services to be provided to the existing ski club in conformity with the Official
Plan. While the Township's Official Plan does contain policies in Section D2.2.4 regarding
utilities, this is for the purpose of creating a new lot, which is not proposed through this
application. There are no specific policies in the Official Plan regarding easements for
utility purposes. Staff's opinion is that this application conforms to the Official Plan.
Zoning Bv-law
The subject property is currently zoned Future Development Exception 67 (FD*67) Zone
in the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended. This zone places restrictions on
new development and new uses, but does not prohibit a utility easement. There are no
provisions within Zoning By-law 97-95 that specify the location or size of easements.
On this basis, the application would comply with the provisions as prescribed by the
Zoning By-law.
Corporate Strategic Goals:
Quality of Life —'To contribute to an enriched quality of life for residents by maintaining
Oro-Medonte's natural beauty and country -like character and by providing opportunities
that encourage community participation in activities and recreational programs."
Sustainability — "To build an increasingly sustainable community with regard for and
sensitivity to the needs of future generations."
Safe & Healthy Community — "To ensure that Oro-Medonte policies and programs
promote a safe and secure environment while encouraging healthy lifestyles."
External Relations — "To be recognized as a `good neighbour' with municipalities in the
local area and to be proactive in promoting the interests of the Township at the County,
Provincial and Federal levels of Government and with private sector organizations.

Dear Mr. Witlib:
RE: Consent Application File No. 81 0-15 (Skyline Horseshoe Valley Inc.)
Part of Lot 1, Concession 3, Township of Oro-Medonte, County of Simcoe.
Thank you for circulating the above -noted application to the County of Simcoe for review. The County
of Simcoe's Transportation Master Plan identifies County Road 22 as requiring road improvements to
address deficiencies and future expansion of the area. The time frame for these improvements is
scheduled for the short term horizon (0 —10 years).
The existing right-of-way on County Road 22 adjacent to the subject property is approximately 30.0
metres wide. In accordance with Table 5.4 of the Simcoe County Official Plan, the required basic right-
of-way width for County Road 22 is 36.0 metres. County staff has reviewed this requirement and feel
that the full right-of-way width is necessary for future road maintenance, road improvements and
stormwater flow from County Road 22. In order to meet this right-of-way requirement, the County will
require a road widening of approximately 3.0 metres.
The County of Simcoe has no objection to the approval of the application, provided the following
condition is included:
1. The applicant shall transfer to the Corporation of the County of Simcoe ("County"), at no
cost, a fee simple, unencumbered interest in the following:
• A road allowance widening along the entire frontage of the subject property
adjacent to County Road 22 to provide an 18.0 metre right-of-way from the
centre line of County Road 22.
The applicant shall submit to the satisfaction of the County's Transportation and
Engineering Department a preliminary reference plan (3 copies) which sets out the road
widening to be transferred to the County. Upon approval, the County will instruct the
surveyor to deposit the reference plan in the Land Registry Office for Simcoe County
and request the surveyor provide the County with 3 copies of the deposited reference
plan.
All costs associated with the land transfer, including costs relating to surveying, legal
fees and disbursements, agreements, GST, etc. shall be bome by the Applicant. All
documentation is to be prepared and registered by the County's Solicitor and to be
Page 119 of 159

executed where required by the Applicant. The Applicant shall submit to the County's
Solicitor a deposit in the amount of $3000.00 (payable to: HGR Graham Partners in
Trust), prior to the services being rendered.
Prior to stamping of the deed by the Township of Oro-Medonte, the Applicant shall
obtain written clearance from the County for the above -noted conditions.
The County of Simcoe is requesting the road widening including the daylight triangle lands for road
widening purposes pursuant to section 53(12) of the Planning Act and such land will form part of the
highway to the extent of the designated widening in accordance with section 31(6) of the Municipal Act,
2001. The widening of County Road 22 is required pursuant to the County's standards for the
construction of roads such as County Road 22 and are consistent with proper safety standards.
Please forward a copy of the decision. if you require any further information, please do not hesitate to
contact me.

Background:
Property Description
L`eMi'X R'ecfor.' CleV06bhY.:'.
The subject lands are located at 298-302 Shanty Bay Road, which is legally described as
Plan 1, E Pt Lot 16, W Pt Lot 16, Pt Blk H and RP 51 R-37843, Part 1, and Pt Lots 15 and
16, Pt Blk H, Township of Oro-Medonte. The application includes two properties that
have a total lot area of 0.7 ha (1.73 acres), a lot frontage along Shanty Bay Road of 106
metres, and a frontage along Colborne Street of 63 metres. The lands subject to this
application are comprised of two legally distinct properties. The first property contains
two detached residential dwellings, one commercial building with 2 residential apartments
above, and several accessory buildings. The other property contains one accessory
structure (which was converted from a single detached dwelling in 2011).
The surrounding lands uses include waterfront properties with dwellings, a commercial
building with multiple units including an auto body repair shop, and a range of single
detached dwellings.
The lands subject to the application are designated "Rural" in the Township's Official Plan
and zoned Residential One (R1) and Local Commercial Exception 116 (LC*116) Zone in
the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended.
The purpose of this report is to consider proposed applications to amend both the
Township's Official Plan and Zoning By-law 97-95.
Development Proposal
This report considers the applications submitted by Innovative Planning Solutions on
behalf of Lover's Harbour Inc. and Mark.Porter for amendments to the Township's Official
Plan and Zoning By-law 97-95 affecting lands located at 298-302 Shanty Bay Road.
The applicant proposes the redevelopment of two existing lots by consent proposing the
creation of a total of five residential lots of similar size, with the one lot being recognized
for its existing structure that contains two apartment dwellings and a main floor personal
storage use.
The Official Plan Amendment application 2014-OPA-01 proposes to re -designate the
subject lands from the Rural" to the "Rural Exception" designation in order to facilitate
multiple residential severances. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application
2014-ZBA-02 proposes to re -zone the subject lands from the Residential One (R1) and
Local Commercial Exception 116 (LC*116) Zones to the Residential One Exception (R1*)
Zone to recognize reduced lot frontage and lot area requirements for the proposed
residential lots and to rezone the existing commercial property to a residential zone while
continuing to permit personal storage use on the main floor of the existing building and
two residential apartments on the upper floor.

More specifically the details of the amendments are as follows: Lel lrec or, eve o m...
1. Official Plan Amendment (OPA) 2014-OPA-01
The text of Section C2.4 — Exceptions would be modified to add a new site-specific policy
that would permit the severance of the property for three new residential lots to be created
with lot frontages of 21.0 metres and lot areas of 0.12 hectares resulting in a total of five
residential lots.
2. Zoning By-law Amendment (ZBA) 2014-ZBA-05
The ZBA proposes to rezone the subject lands to a site specific Rural Exception (R1*)
Zone that would recognize a series of zoning by-law deficiencies including lot frontage,
lot area, and would specify permitted uses that are existing and proposed.
The Official Plan policies that apply to all of the subject lands are contained in
Section C2.3 of the Plan.
Provincial Policy Statement 2014 (PPS)
The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides direction to municipalities in Ontario for
appropriate land use planning and development, "while protecting resources of provincial
interest, public health and safety, and the quality of the natural environment'.
The intent of the PPS is to build strong and healthy communities while at the same time
promoting efficient land use and development patterns.
The following PPS policies are applicable to these applications:
The PPS states in policy 1.1.1(b) and 1. 1.2 that the Township will have sufficient land
made available to accommodate an appropriate range and mix of residential,
employment (including industrial, commercial and institutional uses) recreational and
open spaces to meet long term needs. Due to their being sufficient land available
throughout the Township within identified settlement areas and in accordance with the
land budget and population allocations identified, the creation of new residential lots
outside of a settlement area would not meet the intent of this policy.
Policy 1.1.3 contains policy that state settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and
their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted. The proposed severance is located
outside of a settlement area and therefore it is not considered to be consistent with the
Provincial Policy Statement.
Section 1.1.4.4 of the PPS states that "Growth and development may be directed to rural
lands in accordance with policy 1.1.5 ..." Section 1.1.5.2 states "On rural lands located
in municipalities, permitted uses are: (c) limited residential development" and 1.1.5.4
states: "Development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained by
rural service levels should be promoted."

Places to Grow - Growth Plan
The applications have been reviewed with reference to the Places to Grow policies that
have been in place since 2006. In Policy 2.2.2 Managing Growth subsection (i) states
that development should be directed to settlement areas.. As stated above, the subject
lands are not located in a settlement area identified in either the County or Township
Official Plan and therefore the proposed residential development would not be within a
settlement area as required by Places to Grow.
The subject lands are located in the "Rural Areas" as defined by the Growth Plan. In
accordance with Section 2.2.9.3 "New multiple lots and units for residential development
will be directed to settlement areas, and may be allowed in rural areas in site-specific
locations with approved zoning or designation that permits this type of development in a
municipal official plan, as of the effective date of this Plan." As stated, the proposed
residential development is not located within a settlement area, and is within the Rural
designation in the Township's Official Plan which only permits limited residential lot
creation if the lands subject to the consent have a minimum lot area of 36 hectares to
create one residential lot. On this basis the subject lands are located within a rural area
that did not have approved zoning or designation that permitted the type of development
proposed, as of the effective date of the Growth Plan, which is the purpose of this
application to amend the Official Plan. Based on the above, the application to amend
the Official Plan, would not conform with the Places to Grow Growth Plan.
County of Simcoe Official Plan
The subject lands are designated "Rural" in the County of Simcoe Official Plan and is
subject to both the Rural policies contained in Section 3.6.7 in addition to the policies
contained in Section 3.6.11.
As the subject lands contain frontage along County Road 20 (Shanty Bay Road) the
applications are also subject to the policies contained in Section 4.8:2.5 that restrict
entrances from a County Road to residential lots created after June 30, 1996 except in
accordance with County By-law 5544, This By-law states "New entrances shall not be
permitted to individual lots created on County Roads following June 30, 1996, except in
urban settlement areas designated in Official Plans." The subject lands are not within a
settlement area designated in the Township's Official Pian. The By-law further states
that "where a subdivision or individual lot fronts onto both a County Road and a Local
Road, the entrance will be from the Local Road., where feasible." The lots proposed to
be created through these applications should have frontage on Colborne Street. There
are currently three accesses from County Road 20 including a commercial entrance that
will be reclassified to residential through the process. The additional lot proposed to be
created at the intersection of County Road 20 and Colborne Street (Lot 4 on Conceptual
Site Plan) will require a new access from Colborne Street.

Official Plan, and was circulated for comments on the proposed Official Plan and Zoning
By-law Amendments. Comments were initially received on March 28, 2014 with
additional comments received on December 5, 2014.
As a result of the input received at the Public Meeting in December 2014, the applicant
revised their application on April 10, 2015 to remove the proposed commercial use of
proposed Lot 5. This revised site plan was circulated to the County of Simcoe who
confirmed their support for the revised plan with respect to the technical nature of the
proposal and their conditions.
Section 3.6.7 of the County Plan states that in rural areas, uses permitted are those listed
in Section 3.6.6 plus highway commercial, institutional, residential lots created by
consent, country recreational facilities, country residential subdivisions to a maximum of
40 lots, and rural business parks. The proposed development applications seek to create
a total of five (5) residential lots by consent.
Section 3.6.11 states that in rural areas, country residential development through
subdivision by Plan, rather than consent, is preferred. However, lots may be created by
consent according to the following guidelines:
a) Lots should be restricted in size in order to conserve other lands in larger blocks for
agricultural or environmental purposes. Consent lots should be developed to an
approximate maximum size of one hectare, except where larger sizes may be suitable
because of environmental constraints or design considerations.
b) The number of lots on the grid road system should be restricted in order to maintain
the rural character and road function and to avoid strip development
c) In geographic areas set out in local official plans, provision may be made for residential
lot areas larger than 1 ha. where required for servicing purposes, environmental
considerations, or to maintain established lot and development patterns.
These applications propose the creation of lots by consent and also seeks to recognize
lot frontage and lot area requirements that are lower than the Township's minimum
requirements contained in the Residential One (111) Zone. The number of lots proposed
in total is five with three fronting onto County Road 20 and two fronting onto Colborne
Street.
Section 3.4.1 of the County Plan states that where the policies of the local municipal
Official Plan are considered more restrictive to development than the policies of the
County Official Plan, the more restrictive policies shall apply. Due to the Township's
Official Plan policies being more restrictive for lot creation in the Rural designation, the
Township's policies apply. On this basis, the proposed development generally would not
conform to the policies of the County Official Plan.

Lake Simcoe Protection Plan
The LSRCA reviewed the applications in the context of the PPS and LSPP, and based
on the existing environmental mapping LSRCA staff have confirmed that the subject
properties are located outside of: any natural hazard lands, any natural heritage
features, and any area governed by Ontario Regulation 179/06. On this basis, the
LSRCA had no objection to the approval of the applications as stated in their April 17,
2014 correspondence.
Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan
The Township's Official Plan provides the basis for considering all growth and
development in the Township. The Plan contains policies intended to guide land use
decisions for the Township for the next twenty years. The Plan establishes a vision for
the Township which is intended to preserve the quality of life, protect the rural character
and natural heritages features, and maintain the open countryside which makes up the
Township. The rural area is considered to be an asset to the community and it is the
intent of the Official Plan to protect this by only encouraging development in the rural
area that is compatible with the open space and natural character of the area. As the
Plan designated sufficient land for residential uses, amendments to the Plan to permit
such development, unless specifically anticipated by the policies of this plan, may only
be considered by Council if they are the result of a broader policy review. As discussed
in more detail in this section, the proposed application is a site specific amendment
which was not anticipated by the policies of the Plan and is not the result of a broader
policy review.
The subject property is designated "Rural" by the Official Plan. The permitted uses within
the "Rural" designation include single detached dwellings, home occupations, and Bed
and Breakfast establishments.
The objectives of the Rural designation are to:
Preserve and promote the rural character of the Township and the maintenance of
the open space.
Prevent the intrusion of land uses which are incompatible with the rural character
and/or resource activities of the area
It is for these purposes that Section C2.3, contain policies which provide direction
regarding the creation of new lots for residential purposes in the "Rural' designation.
Section C2.3.1 states that only one new lot can be severed from a lot in the Rural
designation that has an area of at least 36 hectares or is the whole of an original Township
lot provided a lot has not been served from the parcel after March 26, 1973. The subject
land does not meet both of these policies which is the purpose of the applicant applying
to the Township for consideration of re -designation the lands to permit a residential
severance. The total lot size of the lands to be severed is approximately 0.7 hectares.
Therefore, any proposed severance of the lands would not conform with the intent of the
Rural policies. The purpose of establishing a minimum requirement of 36 hectares is to

ensure that the rural character is maintained by limitin f a
future growth being directed towards the settlement areas of thep _lr * or, e e o M.
In terms of road access the subject lands front onto both County Road 20 (Shanty Bay
Road) and Colborne Street, which is a municipally maintained road. Section D1.2.3 of
the Plan states that direct access to these roads may be permitted subject to the County
of Simcoe policy. As stated in the County of Simcoe section of this report, the access
points to the subject lands already existing on the County Road, and the additional
access pints will be provided along the Colborne Street Frontage.
Based on the above, the proposed applications would not conform with the intent of the
policies in Rural designation or the Township Official Plan policies in general.
The Township has received requests for Amendments to the Official Plan for Rural
Exception designations in order to permit residential lot creation and while each
application is assessed on its own merits, there is a 2010 application that was denied by
Council and appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). The OMB decision from
2011 confirmed that the proposed re -designation to a Rural Exception designation to
permit lot creation was contrary to the relevant provisions of the Planning Act, and did
not conform with the intent and purpose of the PPS, County and Township Official
Plans.
In considering any application for an Official Plan Amendment, consideration of Section
E1.7 -Amendments to the Official Plan is required. This section states that the Plan is
intended to manage change in the Township for the next 20 years and that the Plan
identifies enough land for residential, commercial, and industrial uses until the year
2022. On this basis, the policies state that the Plan should only be amended when the
policies have been found not to address issues or issues have been raised with a site-
specific proposal that are required to be addressed in a comprehensive manner. The
proposed application for an Official Plan Amendment that proposes the creation of
additional lots for residential purposes. As stated in the Plan, sufficient lands are
already designated to accommodate residential development and therefore
amendments to the Plan, unless contemplated by the existing policies for this purpose,
would not conform with this policy. In addition, the proposed application does not
identify any issue which has not already been contemplated by the Plan and does not
raise any issue which needs to be addressed in a comprehensive manner. At the time
of the adoption of the Official Plan, consideration was provided on a comprehensive
basis regarding the lot creation policies. At that time sufficient lands were already
designated and available for residential development and therefore it was the intent of
Council to protect the rural character and quality of life enjoyed by residents through
limited now residential lot creation policies. Should Council consider supporting the
proposed Official Plan Amendment application, additional applications for similar
proposals would be anticipated.
On the basis of the analysis provided above, the proposed application to amend the
Official Plan would not conform with the intent of the Township Official Plan.

In support of the proposed Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments, the applicant
submitted the following reports:
1. Planning Justification Report — Innovative Planning Solutions
2. Functional Servicing Report — Gerrits Engineering
3. Hydrogeology and Servicing Feasibility Evaluation — Azimuth Environmental
Consulting Inc.
The Functional Servicing Report was prepared by Gerrits Engineering to examine the
servicing requirements of the proposed residential lots. A Hydrogeology and Servicing
Feasibility study was prepared by Azimuth and reviewed the potential supply from the
aquifers. Based on the review, the report concludes that there is sufficient water within
the shallow, intermediate or deep zone aquifers to meet the anticipated demand from the
proposed residential lots. The report also completed a review of the Reasonable Use
Policies, a review of the use of tertiary systems, and concluded that the existing soils on
site are conducive to effluent beds having a recommended T -time of 15 min/cm.
The reports conclude that the servicing of the proposed development including the
residential dwellings is feasible.
Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment
Further to the proposed Official Plan Amendment, Development Services Staff
recommend denial of Zoning By-law Amendment 2014-ZBA-02 on the basis that the
proposed lots would not be in keeping with the minimum zone provisions for the
Residential One (R1) Zone. While it is acknowledged that some of the existing lots in the
surrounding area would have lot frontages and lot areas that do not comply with the zone
provisions of the Township's zoning by-law, the creation of these lots would be prior to
the implementation of By-law 97-95. In some instances the lots are within the first plan
for the former Township of Oro (Plan 1); new lots however which have been created in
the same area since the adoption of zoning by-law 97-95, have been required to comply
with the zone provisions. The intent of the zone provisions is to establish standards with
respect to a minimum size to accommodate the required servicing (water, septic),
driveway and appropriate setbacks to a dwelling in addition to the required amenity space
within the property to maintain a specific built form and character for the neighbourhood.
The proposed reduction in the lot frontage requirement from 30 metres to 21 metres and
lot area from 0.2 hectares to 0.13 hectares would significantly reduce the zone standards
resulting in a potential precedent for future applications.

Analysis:
Does the application conform to then general intent of the following policies?
• Township's Official Plan:
All of the lands related to this application are designated `Restricted Rural' in the
Township's Official Plan. One of the objectives of the Restricted Rural designation is to
protect the lands adjacent to the City of Orillia from incompatible development to ensure
that the expansion of the urban centre in the future is cost effective and efficient. In
accordance with Section C6.2 permitted uses in the Restricted Rural designation
include existing uses that are recognized as permitted uses in the zoning by-law and
provided the intent of the Official Plan is maintained. The property as noted below is
zoned Institutional and would therefore permit uses similar to a residential care home
and would maintain the intent of the Official Plan. The proposed amendment would
provide for the —re -development of the property and re -use of the building and septic
system for the proposed residential care home.
Based on the above, Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application conforms to the
Official Plan.
• Township's Zoning By-law 97-95:
The subject lands is currently zoned Institutional and Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zones.
The Institutional zone permits: Cemeteries, Community Centres, Libraries, Museums,
Public Parks, Places of Worship, and Public Schools.
The lands are proposed to be rezoned to permit a 20 unit residential care home, where
the current definition permits: a maximum of 10 units in a residential care home.
The Township of Oro-Medonte's Zoning By-law 97-95 defines a `Residential Care
Home' as follows:
"a) a dwelling unit used for the accommodation of three to ten persons
exclusive of members of the staff of the operator, who by reason of their
emotional, mental, social, or physical condition or legal status require a group
living arrangement for their well-being, and who are living under the
supervisions of staff who are present at the dwelling unit at all times. Such a
residential care home is required to be licensed, approved or supervised
and/or funded by the Province of Ontario or the Government of Canada; or,
b) a dwelling unit with five or more foster children under the care of a foster
c) a dwelling unit sued for the temporary accommodation of up to ten care-
givers who require rest and relaxation in a quiet setting."
The rezoning proposes to permit the 20 unit residential care facility, and the
ancillary office and gymnasium. The site has historically been utilized for a public

school that from a traffic and servicing impact would have been larger than the
proposed use of the property.
Subsequent to the Public Meeting, the applicant provided addition documentation
to address the comments and questions raised at the public meeting, which
includes the following:
- Operations plan dated May 27, 2015
- Septic System Review prepared by Morris Shelswell and Sons Excavating
and Grading dated April 29, 2015
- Groundwater Investigation prepared by Allan wright Water Wells Inc. dated
May 14, 2015
- Site Design Brief prepared by Roderick H. Young dated May 15, 2015; and
- Revised site Plan prepared by Roderick H. Young
These documents have been reviewed by Township departments and not
additional concerns have been identified that would not permit the proposed re-
zoning to be considered by the Committee.
• County's Official Plan:
The subject lands are in the area designated `Rural and Agricultural' according to the
County of Simcoe's Official Plan.
In analyzing this Zoning By-law Amendment application, Township staff have reviewed
both the County Official Plan currently in effect, as well as the Official Plan adopted by
County Council in November 2008. The County Plan also contains general `Community
Facilities and Services' guidelines which are found in Section 4.2. Since the subject
lands are neither prime agricultural lands nor Greenland Designation, Planning Staff is
of the opinion that the proposed use conforms to Section 4.2 of the County Official Plan.
• Provincial Policy Statement:
The intent of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is to build strong and healthy
communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development
patterns. Section 1.6.3 of the PPS contains policies related to `Infrastructure and Public
Service Facilities', and specifically states:
"Before consideration is given to developing new infrastructure and public
service facilities:
(a) The use of existing infrastructure and public service facilities should be
optimized; and
(b) Opportunities for adaptive re -use should be considered, wherever
feasible. "
The proposed amendment would provide for the re -development and use of the William
B. Wright school building for a residential care facility that utilizes the existing well and
septic system. On the basis of the above policies, the proposed Zoning By-law
Amendment is considered to be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, 2014.

• Places to Grow:
The application has been reviewed with reference to the Place to Grow policies that
have been in place since 2006. In Policy 2.2.9 — Development outside of settlement
areas may be permitted in rural areas in accordance with Policy 2.2.2.1(i). Further,
"rural settlement areas are key to the vitality and economic well-being of rural
communities. Municipalities are encourages to plan for a variety of cultural and
economic opportunities within rural settlement areas to serve the needs of rural
residents and area businesses."
In Planning Staff's opinion, the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment applies to an
element that contributes toward the economic well-being of a rural community and is
considered to conform with the Places to Grow legislation.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of Council be appealed to
the Ontario Municipal Board.
Policies/Legislation:
• Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13
• Provincial Policy Statement 2005
• Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2006
• County of Simcoe Official Plan
• Township of Ora-Medonte Official Plan
• Township of Ora-Medonte Zoning By-law No. 97-95, as amended
Corporate Strategic Goals:
Quality of Life — To contribute to an enriched quality of life for residents by maintaining
Oro-Medonte's natural beauty and county -like character
Sustainability — To build an increasingly sustainable community with regard for and
sensitivity to the needs of future generations.
Consultations:
Notice of this application was circulated to the public and to various review agencies
and Township departments. A public notice sign was also posted on the subject lands
and a statutory public meeting was held on April 1, 2015. As of the preparation of this
report, the following comments/concerns were identified with respect to this application:
water supply and impact on neighbouring wells, septic capacity, traffic management,
drainage, infrastructure, density, security, garbage, noise, light impacts, and property
values. A response to these issues was provided by the applicant and is attached for
the Committee's review (Attachment 2).

Conclusion:
The Zoning By-law Amendment application proposes to add a 20 unit Residential Care
Home to the permitted uses of the existing Institutional Exception 259 (I*259) Zone on
the lands. In addition the proposed amendment would prohibit a Correctional
Residential Care Home, and would identify that 30 parking spaces are required for
employees and residents of the proposed resident care home. The proposed Zoning
By-law Amendment is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conforms to the
Places to Grow legislation, and conforms to the Township and County Official Plans. On
this basis, it is recommended that the Zoning By-law Amendment Application 2015-
ZBA-04 be approved and that proposed By-law 2015-128 be passed by Council.

Operational Plan
Zoning Application to the Township of Oro-Medonte
This letter is prepared further to comments from the Public Meeting dated April 1, 2015 and
discussions with the Township Planning Department regarding the operations of a residential
care community.
Introduction
To meet the needs of adults with complex special needs, and who require specialized care and
support, the proposed 20 unit facility will provide a Residential Care Community for 20 adult
individuals. This centre for excellence will provide supportive residential, recreational,
educational and community opportunities in a rural setting The 2.85 acre site is ideally located
in the township of Ora-Medonte, a community that provides diversified recreational and
educational opportunities for residents. The site is also in close proximity to Orillia and Barrie,
cities that provide services, community integration and recreational opportunities for our
residents.
Client Overview
There are a variety of adults who require specialized and supportive community based
residential care. These include people with Autism, cognitive or developmental issues, dual

diagnosis, acquired brain injury and people who require regular medical and personal care
intervention, but who don't require a hospital setting and who are too young to live in care
facilities for the elderly.
Staffing Model
The staffing model at the Community will meet the needs of the individual residents in the
Community care facility. The people who support the residents would be trained
Developmental Service Workers, Child and Youth Care Practitioners, Social Service Workers,
Personal Support Workers, Recreational Therapists, Behaviour Management Specialists, Nurses
and medical staff, teachers, security personnel and other skilled practitioners. Typically the
staffing ratio is 1:1, therefore there would be up to 20 staff on site during day time hours of
6am to 9pnt and an overnight staff of 5-7 individuals between 10pm and Gam.
In addition, the facility would be managed and administrated by a team that includes clinical
and medical supervision, programming and client care facilitators, human resource personnel,
facility and service staff and administrative support. It is anticipated that with the 24/7
operation and related shift requirements, the facility would employ 60 individuals on a full time
and part time basis.
Site overview
The site is an ideal setting for the proposed facility, The site would be fenced to provide
residence with safe and secure boundaries. The client has retained the professional services of
Orillia architect Rod Young for the design stages of the building that will make use of the
existing school structure and would include the addition of 20 residential one bedroom units a
gymnasium and office space. The overall building will be a one floor fully accessible facility that
will look like a beautiful board and batten and stone county estate. See the attached design
brief for more details about the site plans and building elements.
Security and Safety
Staff support, technology and procedures and protocols are the integral elements that facilitate
a safe residential community. To meet the safety and security needs of our residents, the
Residential Care Community provides a level of staffing and supervision that nurtures resident
and community success. Each resident and their personal support plan facilitate successful
program implementation in a well supervised milieu. In addition a crisis intervention team
monitors and responds to support safety and security of the residents and staff on site and in
the community. These highly trained individuals will promote positive and proactive
intervention, behaviour management, site safety and successful program implementation.

Technological security such as cameras, lighting, controlled access points and functionally and
aesthetically appropriate fencing and greening are all elements that are to be integrated into
the facility's safety and security protocols.
Physical (Resources
Water
A new drilled well has been installed on the site and it has been determined that there is
sufficient water supply on the site to accommodate the 20 unit facility_ A letter confirming this
is included in our submission. In addition, there is currently a dug well on the site that will be
utilized and design for the appropriate fire suppression system.
Septic
The current and existing septic bed has a capacity of the required 5000 litres per day (calculated
with the Oro-Medonte building department at 20 residents multiplied by 450L per day). Our
client has had the septic bed and tank inspected and it was determined from this inspection
that the weeping bed and holding tank are in good working order and would meet the needs of
our operation. A letter confirming this is included in our submission. A final design of this septic
system will be included with the related building application.
Garbage and Recycling
To accommodate solid waste the use of organic recycling provided by the township and the site
will integrate a commercial waste and recycling program.
The purchasers are anxious to proceed with the project and would greatly appreciate this item
being scheduled for the next available Meeting. Should you have any questions and/or
comments please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned.

Attention: J. Douglas Irwin, Clerk, Scott Jermey, Councillor Ward 5,
Dear Sirs,
Re: Proposed Amendment to Zoning By-law
William B. Wright School site
204 Line 15 North, Orillia, Ontario
Application no: 2015-ZBA-04
I searched the Township's website to review the reports required by the Township by the Applicant and do
not find that they have been posted. I wish to request that you provide me with the opportunity to peruse
these documents and also review the Township' s peer studies for these reports prior to you making your
decision. I am currently on vacation, returning on July 20th, 2015.
I note on the site you have posted a draft of the approval to the change in the zoning by-law. This approval
requires 30 parking spots. I do not believe that on this 2.34 acre site that there is room for a 20 unit care
facility with 30 parking spots, numerous wells, septic system, etc.
I remain convinced that the site cannot support a development of this size without adversely affecting the
quality and quantity of the neighbourhood' s well water. If you approve this development I would request
that the Township and the developer guarantee our wells. Nor am I in agreement that the use of the
current septic system, which has been virtually dormant for over 20 years, is in excess of 35 years old,
could possibly support this number of residences.
The road would have to upgraded to support the additional traffic. Will the City of Orillia agree to
upgrading the road at their expense, or is the cost going to put over to the local tax payers?
The drainage caused by this development would also be detrimental to the area, and would tax the already
fragile drainage we have on this road. I believe that the huge amount of grey water and septic

waste produced would saturate the property, runbSMgr6Ya§6inAM?igi�6lgllpb41#dlth �K%r�opm...
properties to the south of the project. The planner for the applicant indicated there was a natural creek
immediately south of the site, however, that is not a creek, that is our property that is slightly lower in
elevation. The output from the project will ultimately end up on our front lawn. Who is going to compensate
us for this additional moisture, or how are they going to keep the moisture from draining onto our property
and killing our trees?
I am also attaching a copy of the Petition with the names, addresses and phone numbers of those opposing
this zoning Amending Application, and a copy of the Petition for those in support of the Amending
Application, for your files and consideration. I will remind you that you have only notified 16 properties
of this application in the community, and there are over 30 people against it.

Recommendation(s): Requires Actions For Information Onlyn
It is recommended:
1. That Report No. DS2015-061 be received and adopted.
2. That Zoning By-law Amendment Application 2015-ZBA-08 and Temporary Use
By-law 2015-134 by J. & C. Read, specifically to permit a Garden Suite for the
lands described as Concession 14, East Part Lot 9, Registered Plan 51 R35511,
Part 1 (Oro), 1004 Line 14 North for a period of 10 years, be approved
3. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Director,
Development Services signature.
Background:
Jason and Constance Read have submitted an application to permit the construction of
a Garden Suite (Granny Flat) on the subject property, located within Concession 14,
East Part Lot 9, Registered Plan 51 R35511, Part 1 (Oro), municipally known as 1004
Line 14 North. The proposed dwelling unit is to be occupied by Constance's parents,
Mr. & Mrs. Dougherty.
The subject property is 7.5 hectares (18.57 acres) and contains a single detached
dwelling and agricultural buildings. The applicant is proposing to construct a Garden
Suite on the subject property on a temporary basis for a period of 10 years as provided
for under the Planning Act.
Due to the lack of movers available to transport the Garden Suite to the site and
scheduling constraints, the applicant has moved the unit prior to receiving approval from
the Development Services Committee. The applicant acknowledges that the Garden
Suite is not to be occupied until a Building Permit is issued and occupancy is granted.

8.c) Report No. DS2015-061, Adrianna Spinosa, Planner re: Zo...
Analysis:
Section 39.1 of the Planning Act permits Council to authorize the temporary use of a
Garden Suite for up to ten years.. Garden Suite is defined as "one unit detached
residential structure containing bathroom and kitchen facilities that is ancillary to an
existing residential structure and that is designed to be portable." Furthermore, The Act
also allows Council to enter into an agreement with the landowner to deal with issues
such as:
• the installation, maintenance, and removal of the garden suite;
• the period of occupancy of the garden suite by any of the persons named in the
agreement; and
• the monetary or other form of security that Council may require for actual or
potential costs to the municipality related to the Garden Suite.
The subject land is designated Mineral Aggregate Resource — Licensed in the
Township's Official Plan and Agricultural in the County's Official Plan. The policies of
the Township and County Official Plans have been reviewed and do not affect the
context of the proposed development.
Consistent with Section 39.1 of the Planning Act, the Township of Ora-Medonte brought
forth a policy in 1997 outlining requirements for Garden Suites in the Township. It states
that:
a. The garden suite is not be a mobile home;
b. The garden suite utilizes existing services on the property;
c. The existing driveway to the main residential dwelling is to be utilized for access
and no new entrance from a public road be created for the garden suite;
d. The garden suite has a minimum gross floor area of 50 square metres and a
maximum gross floor area of 85 square metres;
e. Approval for the increased usage of the septic system be obtained;
f. An agreement be registered on title providing for the use of the lands;
g. The garden suite not be transferable to another owner; and
h. Appropriate securities are deposited with the Township to ensure that the
agreement can be implemented.
The applicant has located a modular dwelling unit previously utilized as a Garden Suite
at a different site within the Township. The proposed Garden Suite will use the existing
well and septic services, will be accessed from the existing driveway, and proposes a
floor area which complies with the requirements.
In keeping with the Township's Garden Suite Policy, the landowners and occupants will
be required to execute an Agreement prepared by Staff that outlines the conditions
respecting the installation, and eventual removal of such dwelling unit. The Agreement
requires the deposit of $2,500 as security in the case of default of such agreement.
Once all parties (Township, owners, and occupants) have signed the Agreement, and
securities have been collected, the Agreement is then registered on title of the property
and the applicant may proceed with necessary Building Permits to obtain occupancy.

Page 151 of 159
8.c) Report No. DS2015-061, Adrianna Spinosa, Planner re: Zo...
The property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) in the Township's Zoning By-law. The
Township's Zoning By-law permits single detached dwellings within the A/RU Zone.
Unlike other Zoning By-law Amendment applications presented to The Committee, the
temporary use does not propose to alter the A/RU Zone symbol applicable to the
property, as shown on Schedule A13 of the Zoning By-law. Rather, the Temporary Use
By-law paired with the Registered Agreement will allow for the specified use by the
specific individuals listed, in addition to the existing use of the property.
Financial t Legal Implications / Risk Management:
A $2,500 security deposit is required prior to issuance of a building permit as part of the
agreement of the garden suite to ensure removal of the unit at the expiration of the
agreement.

• Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13
• Provincial Policy Statement, 2014
• Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2006
• Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan

LOL 2X0
Attention: Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
RE: 298-302 Shanty Bay Road, Township of Oro-Medonte
Applications 2014-OPA-01 and 2014-ZBA-02
I am preparing this correspondence in order to provide you with information pertaining to my
properties at 298-302 Shanty Bay Road, and their associated development applications before
you.
In 2010, through my Planning consultants Innovative Planning Solutions, I applied to perform
one (1) boundary adjustment (2010-B-04) and one (1) minor variance (2010-A-08). The goal
of these applications was to consolidate the existing structures on 298, 300, and 302 Shanty
Bay Road, and allow for a vacant building lot in keeping with the character (frontage and
area) as the surrounding residential lots along Shanty Bay Road.
These applications were supported by Township Planning Staff, and provisionally approved
by the Township's Committee of Adjustment. Subsequent to the above noted activity, the
County of Simcoe insisted on several development requirements that I did not agree with. I
chose to allow the Committee of Adjustment's decisions to lapse and proceed in a more
comprehensive manner at some point in the fixture. The provisionally approved boundary
adjustment and minor variance were never perfected.
Since purchasing these properties over 6 years ago, it has been my goal from the beginning to
revitalize and rejuvenate this site. These lands currently possess 3 residential dwellings,
along with I commercial building containing 2 residential apartments. This totals 4 structures
all on 2 parcels of property. Through these applications 1 am only requesting the approval for
I additional house in keeping with the surrounding fabric and character of the area.
These deteriorated properties are an eye sore, located in a highly visible area when entering
the Township of Oro-Medonte from the City of Barrie. In February 2014 I proceeded with
Official Plan Amendment and Zoning Bylaw Amendment applications to comprehensively
Page 156 of 159
9.a) Correspondence dated July 2, 2015 from Mark Porter, re:...
develop (clean up) these lands. It was, and is, my goal to develop these lands in complete
consistency with the surrounding area.
Over the past year and a half I have worked with, and met on site with, both County &
Township Staff. I have provided a hydrogeological study completed by Azimuth
Environmental concluding no adverse environmental conditions would be created by this
development. I have received formal correspondence from the Lake Simcoe Region
Conservation Authority (LSRCA) confirming they have no objections to this development. I
have further received correspondence confirming the County of Simcoe (Planning &
Transportation) have no objections to this development.
Through this development the County would gain a substantial road widening along Shanty
Bay Road, along with a sight triangle at the intersection of Shanty Bay Road & Colborne
Street. I would also like to note that this development does not require any new entrances to
Shanty Bay Road (3 existing, 3 within development proposal).
My initial application was on the basis of maintaining the existing commercial building &
uses on these lands. Through the Public Meeting process, an abundance of feedback from the
public and from council was received concerning the continued use of the existing
commercial structure. After listening to these concerns, I chose to amend my applications to
eliminate the commercial use on these lands, in favour of residential lots fully in keeping with
the surrounding lot fabric and character.
On June 2nd, 2015, one day before a decision was scheduled to be made on these applications,
the Township Staff Report was made available on the Development Services Committee
agenda. This Staff Report recommends denial of my applications. Prior to June 2nd I had no
indication of any negative position on this project from Staff.
Throughout this process I have been cognizant of the wishes of all parties involved (County,
Township, LSRCA, Public) and have sought a solution that best fits these lands, with the goal
of rejuvenating this area. Should these applications be denied, this site will continue to
deteriorate, benefitting no one.
I request that you please consider this development in a logical sense, taking the view of what
decision would benefit the Township most. These lands are in dire need of redevelopment
and I wish to facilitate this. I would be happy to meet you on site to review the property,
and/or answer any questions you have on this matter.
Sincerely,
Mark Porter, Lover's Harbour Inc.

Beautiful
Dear Sir,
By Email
I have reviewed the proposed rezoning of the existing home lots and an empty
commercial building into five residential lots, and find it consistent with the surrounding area.
The elimination of the commercial use is an improvement to the neighbourhood, and as a resident
of the area I am in full support of this proposal.
Respectfully,
Ian S. Malcolm, Architect
