My simple request is that in the absence of a fencing by-law, Council consider a mechanism restricting the construction of a fence bordering the rear lot lines of 703 and 721 Line 9 South. Such a barrierwould restrict the free movement of wildlife through the area. A well -travelled route for deer and wild turkey exists between the homes at 703 and 721 and traverses the property line of the subject lands.

(Sections 53(41) & 53(43), the Planning Act R.S.O. 1990) shall cause the application to lapse and render this Decision null and void. 3. That Minor Variance Application 2019-A-05 by Betty Veitch, specifically to permit a minimum lot area of 0.3 hectares (0.74 acres) for a retained lot and an interior side yard of 14 metres (45.9 feet) for an existing agricultural building on a severed lot, for lands located at 3362 Penetanguishene Road in Part of Lot 40, Concession 1 W.P.R. (Vespra), Township of Oro-Medonte, be approved, subject to the following condition: a) That, notwithstanding Table B1 of Zoning By-law 97-95, the severed and retained lot shall otherwise comply with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning By -Law; 5. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Secretary Treasurer's signature. Background: The property is located 3362 Penetanguishene Road and also has extensive frontage along the south side of Horseshoe Valley Road. Buildings and structures on the lands include a dwelling that fronts onto Penetanguishene Road, accessory buildings and an agricultural building. The majority of the land is under agricultural cultivation and there is watercourse and a wooded area that bisects the property. Surrounding land uses consist of residential uses to the north and east, agricultural uses to the south and the Canadian Pacific Railway to the west. A Location Map and an Aerial Photo are included as Schedules 1 and 2 to this report. Consent Application 2019-B-02 The purpose of Consent Application 2019-B-02 is the creation of a new lot to facilitate future development. The details of the proposed consent (severance) are: Lands to be Severed: Lands to be Retained: Frontage: Approx. 620 m. (2,034 ft.) Approximately 48.94 m. (160.6 ft.) along Horseshoe Valley Road along Penetanguishene Road Depth: Ap roximatel 294 m. 965 ft. Approximately 63.72 m. 209 ft. Area: Approximately 22.7 ha. 56 ac. Approx. 3,528 sq. m. 0.87 ac. Use: Future Development Continued Residential The Applicant's Consent Sketches are included as Schedule 3. Minor Variance Application 2019-A-05 The lands are also the subject of a related Minor Variance Application 2019-A-05. The applicant submitted the variance application seeking relief from the following section of Zoning By-law 97- 95, with respect to the proposed retained parcel: Development Services Committee Report No. DS2019-030 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 15 Page 35 of 457 l 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... Section 4.1 — Table 134-A — Minimum Lot Size (Si Required: Minimum 0.4 ha 99 ac. ale Detached Dwelling_ in A/RU Zone): Proposed: 0.3 ha (0.74 ac.) Upon review of the application, Planning Staff have determined that the following variance is also required on the proposed severed parcel: Section 4.1 — Table 134-C — Minimum Interior Side Lot Line Setback (Agricultural Building in A/RU Zone): Required: Minimum 15 metres 49.2 Proposed: 14 metres (45.9 feet As the additional variance pertains to an existing agricultural building that was shown on the drawings included in the Notice of Public Hearing for this application, Planning Staff is of the opinion that the additional variance can be considered at this time without the need for further Public Notice, on the basis that it does not materially change the application. The Applicant's Minor Variance Sketch is included as Schedule 4. Analysis: Provincial Policies Provincial Policy Statement 2014 (PPS) The Provincial Policy Statement 2014 (PPS) provides direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Section 1.1.3.1 of the PPS states that Settlement Areas shall be the focus of growth and their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted. Section 1.1.3.2 promotes in Settlement Areas a mix of densities and land uses which, among other considerations, efficiently use land and are appropriate for existing and planned infrastructure. The proposed Consent and Minor Variance are, in Planning Staff's opinion, consistent with the PPS the reasons that the consent and variances would facilitate the future development of the lands within a settlement area as envisioned by the Craighurst Secondary Plan, by making the lands available for acquisition of by a future developer, without being tied to the dwelling which the applicant wishes to continue to own and live in. Places to Grow - The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) Places to Grow — The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) is the Ontario government's initiative to plan for growth and development in a way that supports economic prosperity, protects the environment, and helps communities achieve a high quality of life by providing a framework for managing growth in an area stretching from the Niagara Peninsula northward to include Simcoe County. The policies of Section 2.2.9 -Rural Areas identify designated rural settlement areas, such as the Craighurst Rural Settlement Area, as being the locations in which growth and development is to be focused and concentrated. Development Services Committee Report No. DS2019-030 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 15 Page 36 of 457 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... Section 4.2.2 Natural Heritage System is also relevant to these applications, due to the presence of a watercourse (key hydrologic feature) and wooded areas (potential key natural heritage features) on the lands, both inside and outside of the Craighurst Rural Settlement Area. The Natural Heritage System policies of the Growth Plan regulate, restrict or prohibit development and site alteration in or adjacent to Key Natural Heritage Features (e.g. significant woodlands, wetlands, Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest) or Key Hydrological Features (e.g. permanent streams, intermittent streams, inland lakes and their littoral zones, seepage areas and springs). The Province has mapped a Natural Heritage System for the Greater Golden Horseshoe to support a comprehensive, integrated and long-term approach to planning for the protection of the region's natural heritage and biodiversity which was released on February 9, 2018. Planning staff have reviewed the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Natural Heritage System mapping applicable to the subject property and the surrounding area and confirm the mapping identifies a woodland area and an unevaluated wetland on the westerly portion of the subject lands. However, Section 4.2.2.1 of the Growth Plan states that the Natural Heritage System mapping will exclude lands within the settlement area boundaries that were approved and in effect as of July 1, 2017. This section would apply in this situation as the majority of the subject lands are within a settlement area boundary and designated as of July 1, 2017 for development. Since these applications do not propose any new land uses, construction or site alternation at this time, Planning Staff's opinion that there would be no impacts to the Natural Heritage System if these applications are approved. Any future development on the proposed severed lands would require its own planning applications (e.g. plan of subdivision, zoning by-law amendment) which would address any natural heritage considerations at such future time. Based on the above, it is Planning Staff's opinion that these applications conform to the Growth Plan. County of Simcoe Official Plan Pursuant to Schedule 5.1 of the County's Official Plan, Craighurst is identified as a "Settlement" in the Township, the boundaries of which Section 3.5.4 of the County's Official Plan states "are shown in local municipal official plans and are considered to be the approved settlement area boundaries of this Plan." Settlements are developed at higher densities which means that more resource lands and environmentally valuable lands can be conserved. The wide range of land uses provides an opportunity for people to live, work, shop and find recreation in one compact community. It is the opinion of Development Services Staff that this application conforms to the County Official Plan. However, since the County's comments have not been received as of the preparation of this report, it is recommended that the Committee have regard for any comments that may be received prior to the Committee's decision. Development Services Committee Report No. DS2019-030 March 6, 2019 Page 4 of 15 Page 37 of 457 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan The majority of the subject land, included the dwelling that is proposed to be separated from the balance of the lands, are located within the Rural Settlement Area of Craighurst. According to Schedule 'F' (Craighurst Secondary Plan) to the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan, the majority of the applicant's lands are designated "Living Area", which represents the lands in Craighurst that are intended for future residential development. A portion of the lands, corresponding with the watercourse, is designated Environmental Protection One. There is also a portion of the lands that is located outside of the Craighurst Settlement Area, that is designated Rural. Refer to Schedule 5 to this report, which illustrates the Official Plan designations. It is Planning Staff's opinion that these applications, if approved, will assist in setting the stage for the severed lands within the Living Area designation to be developed in the future in accordance with Section C18.4.1 of the Craighurst Secondary Plan. However, since major development in Craighurst must rely on municipal water, sewer and stormwater management services (Section C18.8) and those services are not yet available. In order to ensure that development and servicing in Craighurst occurs in an orderly, well-planned manner, including the availability of municipal services, the Craighurst Secondary Plan contains phasing policies in Section C18.9. Specifically, Section C18.11(a)(iii) is directly relevant to these applications. Section C18.11(a) states: C18.11 Timing of Development a) No new lots shall be created in the Craighurst Community Secondary Plan area for any purpose, unless: i) The Development Phasing Plan for the entire Secondary Plan area has been approved by the Township, or ii) an area -specific phasing plan has been prepared for the lands on which the new lot(s) is proposed, or iii) the intent of the application is to consolidate parcels of land for development purposes or to create a new parcel to facilitate new development. In Planning Staff's opinion, these applications conform to Section C1 8.11 (a)(iii), since their purpose is to create a new parcel to facilitate new development once the appropriate municipal services are in place. The Official Plan also contains in Section D2.2.1 a number of general criteria applicable to all consent applications. These criteria and Planning Staff's comments as they relate to the applicant's Consent Application are listed below: D2.2.1 General Criteria Prior to issuing provisional consent for a new lot for any purpose, the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the lot to be retained and the lot to be severed.• a) fronts on and will be directly accessed by a public road that is maintained on a year-round basis, Development Services Committee March B, 2019 Report No. DS2019-030 Page 5 of 15 Page 38 of 457 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... Conforms: The lands have direct frontages on Horseshoe Valley Road and Penetanguishene Road, which are County roads that are maintained year-round. b) does not have direct access to a Provincial Highway or County Road, unless the Province or the County supports the request; Conforms: The County of Simcoe has not provided comments on the application, however the County's position on other planning applications in the Township has been that as per Section 4.8.32 of the County of Simcoe's Official Plan, "new entrances shall not be permitted to individual residential lots created on County Roads following June 30, 1996, except in urban settlement areas designated in Official Plans and in accordance with the County Entrance By- law regulating access to County Roads." Based on the majority of the lands being within the Craighurst Rural Settlement Area, Planning Staff are of the opinion that the application conforms with County road entrance policies. c) will not cause a traffic hazard, Conforms: The County of Simcoe has not provided comments on the application, however the application would not require any new driveway entrances. Any future development on the proposed severed parcel would be reviewed at that time for any traffic impacts. d) has adequate size and frontage for the proposed use in accordance with the Comprehensive Zoning By-law and is compatible with adjacent uses; Conforms: Subject to approval of Minor Variance Application 2019-A-05, both the severed and retained parcels would comply with the Zoning By-law. The dwelling is already existing and its severance would not conflict with existing surrounding land uses. e) can be serviced with an appropriate water supply and means of sewage disposal; Conforms: the existing dwelling is already serviced by a well and private septic system. The Building Division is responsible for matters related to septic systems and has no concerns with the application. f) will not have a negative impact on the drainage patterns in the area; Conforms: The existing dwelling has no known negative drainage impacts. The Development Engineering Division is responsible for matters related to drainage and has no concerns with the application. Any future development on the severed lands would require a stormwater management plan. g) will not restrict the development of the retained lands or other parcels of land, particularly as it relates to the provision of access, if they are designated for development by this Plan; Conforms: In this case it would be the severed parcel that would be intended for future development. The proposed Consent would cut off the severed parcel from any frontage on Penetanguishene Road. However, since that frontage is already developed by the applicant's existing dwelling and accessory buildings, it is unlikely that access would have been achieved Development Services Committee Report No. DS2019-030 March 6, 2019 Page 6 of 15 Page 39 of 457 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... from Penetanguishene road to any future development on the lands. The severed parcel would continue to have extensive frontage along Horseshoe Valley Road, providing multiple potential access points to the lands. Therefore, Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed consent will not restrict the future development of the lands, h) will not have a negative impact on the features and functions of any ecological feature in the area; Conforms: No natural heritage concerns have been identified by the Township and agencies in their review of this application. i) will not have a negative impact on the quality and quantity of groundwater available for other uses in the area; and, Conforms: No groundwater concerns have been identified by the Township and agencies in their review of this application. j) will conform to Section 51 (24) of the Planning Act, as amended. Provisional consent may be granted subject to appropriate conditions of approval for the severed and/or retained lot. Conforms: It is Planning Staff's opinion that the application conforms to the Planning Act. Zoning By-law 97-95 The majority of the subject lands are zoned Agricultural/Rural Exception 15 (A/RU*15) Zone. A is zoned Environmental Protection (EP), which corresponds with a watercourse on the lands. Refer to Schedule 6. The Agricultural/Rural Exception 15 (A/RU*15) Zone currently only permits those uses that are existing on the lands. This zoning was put in place by the Township as a control measure to ensure that no development or redevelopment occurs until all other relevant land use planning consideration have been addressed before a new zoning category is approved for the lands. In this case, the A/RU*15 Zone will ensure that the severed lands will not be developed until matters such as servicing, traffic, natural heritage and archaeological resources are addressed through the appropriate processes and planning applications, in accordance with the Craighurst Secondary Plan. The applicant has submitted Minor Variance Application 2019-A-05 to address the following two items that will not comply with the Zoning By-law if the Consent is approved: 1. Retained parcel: Section 4.1 — Table B4 -A — Minimum Lot Size (Single Detached Dwelling in A/RU Zone): Required: Minimum 0.4 ha (0.99 ac. Development Services Committee Report No. DS2019-030 Proposed: 0.3 ha (0.74 ac. March 6, 2019 Page 7 of 15 Page 40 of 457 6.a) 5:40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... 2. Severed parcel; Section 4.1 — Table B4 -C — Minimum Interior Side Lot Line Setback (Agricultural Building in A/RU Zone): Required: Proposed: Minimum 15 metres (49.2 feet) 14 metres (45.9 feet) The Zoning By-law's minimum lot size requirement is intended to ensure that lots are large enough to be serviced by private septic systems. The minimum lot size also establishes a large lot, rural character in the community. The applications have been reviewed by the Township's Building Division and no concerns have been identified with respect to the continued servicing of the existing dwelling on the retained parcel. The appearance and character of the retained parcel and the existing dwelling will not change as a result of this application. With respect to the proposed reduced setback of the agricultural building that would be created by the Consent, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the position of the agricultural building at 14 metres from the new lot line would have no perceivable difference in impact than if the agricultural building was positioned at the required 15 metres. Adequate space for access and maintenance would still remain around the building and the continued use and enjoyment of residential lot would be adequately buffered by the proposed 14 metre setback from any agricultural activities in and around the agricultural building, which is not used for the housing of livestock. Therefore, based on the above and on the rest of the analysis contained in this report, Planning Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances meet the four minor variance tests contain in Section 45 of the Planning Act, in that: 1. The variances maintain the purpose and intent of the Official Plan; 2. The variances maintain the purpose and intent of the Zoning By-law; 3. Are desirable for the appropriate use or development of the land; and 4. Are minor. Financial ! Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision.

Thank you for circulating the above -noted applications to the County of Simcoe for review. This property is located within the settlement boundaries of the Town of Craighurst. The existing right-of- way on Horseshoe Valley Road (County Road 22) and Penetanguishene Road (County Road 93) adjacent to the subject property are approximately 30.5 metres and 20.0 metres wide, respectively. In accordance with Table 5.4 of the Simcoe County Official Plan, the required basic right-of-way widths for County Road 22 and County Road 93 are 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 Roads 22 and 93. In order to meet this right-of-way requirement, the County will require a road widening of approximately 3.0 metres along County Road 22 and 8.0 metres along County Road 93. The County of Simcoe has no objection to the approval of the application, provided the following conditions are 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. A road allowance widening along the entire frontage of the subject property adjacent to County Road 93 to provide an 18.0 metre right-of-way from the centre line of County Road 93. If this widening has the potential of encroaching on the septic bed, a 1.5 metre buffer around the septic bed will be considered. The applicant shall submit to the satisfaction of the County's Transportation and Engineering Department a preliminary reference plan (1 copy and 1 electronic copy) which sets out the road widenings 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 1 copy and 1 electronic copy of the deposited reference plan. Page 53 of 457 6.a) 5.40 p.m. Report No. DS2019-030, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Se... County Comments - 2 All costs associated with the land transfer, including costs relating to surveying, legal fees, and disbursements, agreements, HST, etc. shall be fully borne by the applicant. All legal documentation is to be negotiated, prepared and registered by the Legal Services Department of the County and to be executed where required by the Applicant. The Applicant shall submit to the Legal Services Department of the County a deposit in the amount of $1000.00 prior to the services being rendered. Invoices will be submitted on a cost recovery basis and applied against the deposit. Additional deposits may be required, and any excess over the total invoices will be refunded. The County of Simcoe is requesting the road widenings 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 Roads 22 and 93 are required pursuant to the County's standards for construction and is consistent with proper safety standards. 2. The County of Simcoe Entrance By-law No. 5544 regulates the construction, alteration or change in the use of any private or public entranceway, gate or other structure or facility that permits access to a County road. The County has no record of an Entrance Permit for this property. The applicant must apply for a Residential Entrance Permit for the retained parcel and a Field Entrance Permit for the severed parcel. 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 Setback By-law No. 5604 regulates the location of buildings and other structures on lands adjacent to County Roads. Any new buildings and other structures must be located 15 metres from any requested road allowance widening. Please forward a copy of the decision.

And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject lands have a total lot area of approximately 39.2 hectares (96.8 acres) and are located on the west side of Line 2 North, between Mount St. Louis Road West Road West and 50/51 Sideroad (refer to Schedules 1 and 2). The purpose of Consent Application 2019-B-04 is to consider the creation of a new lot by way of severance. The lands proposed to be severed will have a lot frontage of 90 metres (295.2 feet), a lot depth of 111.1 metres (364.5 feet) and a lot area of 1.0 hectare (2.47 acres) and is proposed for residential use. The lands proposed to be retained will have a lot frontage of approximately 322.0 metres (1056.4 feet) along Line 2 North and a lot area of approximately 38.2 hectares (94.4 acres) and is vacant (refer to Schedules 3 and 4). Analysis: Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The intent of the PPS is to build strong and healthy communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development patterns. In rural areas, the PPS permits limited residential development and other rural land uses. Section 1.1.5 Rural Lands in Municipalities contains policies for rural lands in municipalities on where to direct development. Policy 1.1.5.2 permits limited residential development. Policy 1.1.5.4 further states "development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained by rural service levels should be promoted." The surrounding land uses consist of large agriculturally related and rural residential land uses. Therefore, the proposed residential lot would be in keeping with the rural landscape of the area. Section 2.1.5 expresses that development and site alteration shall not be permitted in significant wetland and woodland areas unless it has been demonstrated that there will be no negative impact on the natural features or their ecological functions. It should be Development Services Report No. DS2019-424 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 10 Page 69 of 457 6.1b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... noted that there is a significant wetland that is located on the retained lands and is approximately 195.0 metres (639.7 feet) from the proposed lot. The proposed Consent application, which provides for the severance to create a residential lot with a lot area of 1.0 hectares (2.47 acres) is considered to be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement as it relates to limited residential use. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Places to Grow, the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017, is the Provincial government's initiative to plan for growth and development in a way that supports economic prosperity, protects the environment and helps communities achieve a high quality of life. In Policy 2.2.9 - Rural Areas there are provisions that allow for development to occur outside of settlement areas in site specific locations with approved designations. The subject Consent Application has been reviewed by Planning staff with respect to the Places to Grow policies. Section 2.2.9.3 c) of these policies state that development outside of settlement areas may be permitted on rural lands for: other rural land uses that are not appropriate in settlement areas provided they: i. are compatible with the rural landscape and surrounding local land uses; ii. will be sustained by rural service levels; and iii. will not adversely affect the protection of agricultural uses and other resource- based uses such as mineral aggregate operations. Section 4.2.2 Natural Heritage System has also been reviewed by Planning staff with respect to the proposed Consent application. The Natural Heritage System policies of the Growth Plan regulate, restrict or prohibits development and site alteration in or adjacent to Key Natural Heritage Features (e.g. significant woodlands, wetlands, Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest) or Key Hydrologic Features (e.g. permanent streams, intermittent streams, inland lakes and their littoral zones, seepage areas and springs, and wetlands). The Province has mapped a Natural Heritage System for the Greater Golden Horseshoe to support a comprehensive, integrated and long-term approach to planning for the protection of the region's natural heritage and biodiversity which was released on February 9, 2018. Within the Natural Heritage System, the Growth Plan provides the following policies for the consideration of new developments: • will demonstrate that there are no negative impacts on key natural heritage features or key hydrologic features or their functions; • connectivity along the system and between key natural heritage features and key hydrologic features located within 240 metres of each other will be maintained or, where possible, enhanced for the movement of native plants and animals across the landscape; • the removal of other natural features not identified as key natural heritage features and key hydrologic features is avoided, where possible; • except for uses described in and governed by the policies in subsection 4.2.8 Mineral Aggregate Resources, the disturbed area, including any buildings and Development Services Report No. DS2019-024 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 10 Page 70 of 457 6.b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... structures, will not exceed 25 per cent of the total developable area, and the imperious surface will not exceed 10 per cent of the total developable area; at least 30 per cent of the total developable area will remain or be returned to natural self-sustaining vegetation, except where specified in accordance with the policies in subsection 4.2.8 Mineral Aggregate Resources. Planning staff have reviewed the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Natural Heritage System mapping applicable to the subject property and the surrounding area and confirm the mapping identifies a woodland area along the south property boundary of the proposed lot (refer to Schedule 5). After staff conducted a site visit, it was determined that this woodland that is identified by MNRF is merely a hedgerow that provides a separation between the adjacent neighbour to the south. This woodland has not been deemed by Planning Staff to be a "significant woodland" within the meaning of the Growth Plan since it is not identified in the County of Simcoe Official Plan or the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan as a significant woodland. Section 4.2.6 Agricultural System has also been evaluated in regards to the proposed application. The subject lands consist of a Prime Agricultural Area that runs along the front of the property along Line 2 North and has a depth of approximately 215 metres. This mapping was prepared by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA). According to the applicant's planner it is understood that the OMAFRA mapping was prepared based on the designations in the County of Simcoe Official Pian. The County of Simcoe has identified with Township staff as well as the applicant's plannerthat OMAFRA's modifications to the designations on the subject lands were not incorporated into the final version of the mapped Schedule 5.1 as approved by the OMB in December 2016. The County will look to correct Schedule 5.1 as part of a future County housekeeping Official Plan Amendment. In the interim, the County has no objection to the application of the Township's Rural designation and policies for those land currently designated Agricultural in the County OP. Based on the above, it is Planning Staff's opinion that this application is not affected by the Natural Heritage System policies of the Growth Plan and that the proposed lot creation conforms to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017 policies as the lot will not have any negative impacts on the key natural heritage features as the lot is adequate in size to maintain suitable setbacks to prevent negative impacts, and that the limited residential lot is compatible with the rural landscape. Nottawasa: a Valley Conservation Authorit A portion of the subject lands is within the jurisdiction of the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA). The lot to be created is not within the NVCA's regulated area (refer to Schedule 6). The NVCA has been circulated the subject application and at the time of writing of this report, comments have yet to be received by Township staff. Committee members should have regard to any NVCA comments. Simcoe County, Official Plan The subject lands are designated 'Rural', 'Greenlands' and 'Agricultural' in the County of Simcoe's Official Plan (refer to Schedule 7). The severed lot is identified as being located in the 'Aaricultural' Desianation. Accordina to the applicant's Dlanner's Development Services March 6, 2049 Report No. DS2019-024 Page 4 of 10 Page 71 of 457 6.b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... consultations with the County Staff, it was noted that OMARFA staff recommended that this area be designated 'Rural'. The County has previously stated that they will be correcting Schedule 5.1 as part of a future County housekeeping Official Plan Amendment, and that the County has no objection to the application of the Township's Rural Designation and policies for these lands. The County has been circulated the subject application and at the time of writing of this report, comments have yet to be received by Township staff. Committee members should have regard to any County comments. Section 3.7.8 of the rural policies states "Limited residential development may be created by consent provided the following are satisfied: a) Lots should be restricted in size in order to conserve other lands in larger blocks for agricultural uses 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; and, b) The number of lots on the grid road system shall be restricted in order to maintain the rural character and road function and to avoid strip development." Section 3.8.14 of the County's Official Plan states "Local municipal official plans may contain policies and mapping that detail the criteria for determining significant woodlands in accordance with the definition of significant woodlands as defined by this Plan. Significant woodlands can also be determined through an Environmental Impact Statement. Local municipalities shall determine whether a woodlot is a significant woodland within a settlement area based on criteria established within the local official plan." The Township has not identified the existing hedgerow that is identified along the south property boundary as being significant woodland area. On the basis of the preceding, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the application conforms to the County of Simcoe Official Plan. Township Official Plan The subject property is designated 'Rural' and 'Environmental Protection One' in accordance with Schedule "A — Land Use" of the Township's Official Plan (refer to Schedule 8). The subject lands also contain "Provincially Significant Wetland" in accordance with Schedule "B — Natural Features" of the Township's Official Plan (refer to Schedule 9). The proposed lot creation if approved would be located within the 'Rural' designation on the property. Section C2.2 of the Township's Official Plan outlines the permitted uses within the 'Rural' designation, which include agricultural and single detached dwellings. Section C2.3.1 permits the creation of new lots in accordance with the intent of this Plan to maintain the rural character of the Township, only a limited number of new lots for residential purposes can be created in the Township, In this regard, only one new lot can be severed from a lot in the 'Rural' designation that has an area of at least 36 hectares or is the whole of an original Township lot provided a lot has not been severed from the parcel after March 26, 1973. The proposed application conforms with this Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-024 Page 5 of 10 Page 72 of 457 6.b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... policy as no new lot has been created from the original parcel of land after March 26, 1973, In considering the creation of a new lot for residential purposes, the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the proposed lot: a) will have a minimum lot area of 0.4 hectares; The lot will be 1.0 hectares in area. b) is of an appropriate size for residential use, with such a residential use generally not requiring a lot size that exceeds 1.0 hectare; The proposed 1.0 hectare will be suitable for a residential use as it will be able to accommodate a single family dwelling and septic system. c) fronts onto an existing public road that is maintained year round by the Township or County; The proposed lot will front onto Line 2 North which is municipally maintained road. d) will not cause a traffic hazard as a result of its location on a curve or a hili; and Operations has no concerns on the proposed lot location. e) can be serviced with an appropriate water supply and an appropriate means of sewage disposal. The severed lot is appropriate size for a septic system and well. Notwithstanding the above, a larger lot size may be considered for environmental or topographical reasons. Based on the above -noted considerations, Planning Staff is of the opinion the proposed severance should be considered under Official Plan Section D2.2.1 — General Criteria for New Lots by Consent. These criteria and Planning Staff's comments are provided below: D2.2 New Lots by Consent D2.2.1 General Criteria Prior to issuing provisional consent for a new lot for any purpose, the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the lot to be retained and the lot to be severed: a) fronts on and will be directly accessed by a public road that is maintained on a year-round basis, The subject lands front onto Line 2 North with driveway access for the retained and severed lands on the west side of Line 2 North, which is a public Township Road maintained year-round. b) does not have direct access to a Provincial Highway or County Road, unless the Province or the County supports the request, Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-024 Page 6 of 10 Page 73 of 457 6.b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... The subject lands do not have access to a Provincial Highway or County Road. c) will not cause a traffic hazard; Upon Site Visit, Planning Staff have identified that the proposed lot location and proposed entrance is within a section of Line 2 North that appears to have clear sight lines. Operations Staff has reviewed the proposed lot location and have no objections on this application. Additionally, any future development on the lot will require an Entrance Permit from the Township. d) has adequate size and frontage for the proposed use in accordance with the Comprehensive Zoning By-law and is compatible with adjacent uses; The parcel to be severed possesses a lot frontage of 90.0 metres (295.2 feet), a lot depth of 111.1 metres (364.5 feet) and a lot area of 1.0 hectare (2.47 acres) which is more than adequate for the provisions of driveway access to the proposed future dwelling on the property. Furthermore, the lands are currently zoned Agricultural/Rural Zone, which requires a minimum frontage of 45 metres (147.6 feet) for residential uses. Therefore, the severed parcel and retained parcel would comply with the provisions of the Zoning By- law. e) can be serviced with an appropriate water supply and means of sewage disposal; Any future dwelling on the severed lands would be serviced by private individual on-site services (well and septic system), the proposed lot area would be more than adequate to accommodate a dwelling on private services. f) will not have a negative impact on the drainage patterns in the area; The severed and retained lands have sufficient area to accommodate any on- site grading to ensure that drainage patterns will not be negatively impacted. g) will not restrict the development of the retained lands or other parcels of land, particularly as it relates to the provision of access, if they are designated for development by this Plan; The retained lands are designated Rural and Environmental Protection One and are thus not designated for development beyond the level of their current use, which is for single detached residential and agricultural purposes. h) will not have a negative impact on the features and functions of any ecological feature in the area; Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-024 Page 7 of 10 Page 74 of 457 6.b) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-24, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... The westerly portion of the retained lands identifies the property with a significant wetland. The proposed lot is more than 195.0 metres (639.7 feet) away from the wetlands therefore the proposed lot should not have any impacts on the wetlands. i) will not have a negative impact on the quality and quantity of groundwater available for other uses in the area; The applicant will be required at the time of submission of building permit to meet all requirements for septic system installation and private water supply. j) will conform to Section 51(24) of the Planning Act, as amended. Provisional consent may be granted subject to appropriate conditions of approval for the severed and/or retained lot. This application has been reviewed in context to Section 51(24) of the Planning Act and it is Staff's opinion that the application conforms. Planning staff is satisfied that the proposed consent conforms to the policies of the Township's Official Plan. Zoning By-law 97-95 The subject lands are zoned "Agricultural/Rural (A/RU)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" (refer to Schedule 10). Table B4 -B of the Township's Zoning By-law requires a minimum frontage of 45 metres for a lot in the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone. Table B4A also requires a minimum of 0.4 hectares for a single detached dwelling. The applicant's planning consultant has provided a conceptual site plan showing a proposed building envelope for the severed lot and would be sufficiently large enough to accommodate all of the building setbacks required by the Zoning By-law for the Agricultural/Rural Zone. Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision.

File #: D13-056150 Requires Action For Information Only 1. That Report No. DS2019-017 be received and adopted. 2. That Minor Variance Application 2018-A-54 by Lyn and Peter Monovan, specifically to permit a non -complying building or structure to be enlarged to a maximum floor area of 44.59 square metres (480.0 square feet) with a 0.0 metre exterior side yard setback for a property located at 11 Church Street, Township of Oro-Medonte, be deferred, to allow the applicant to have discussions with the Township's Chief Building Official and Manager of Operations, on their concerns with the application. The application at this time does not meet the four tests as set out in the Planning Act. 3. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject lands are located on the east side of Line 2 North, south of Ridge Road (refer to Schedule 1). Surrounding land uses consist of residential dwellings. The applicant is proposing to add a 44.59 square metres (480.0 square feet) attached garage onto an existing non -complying dwelling which will have an exterior side yard setback of 0.0 metres. The applicant's site plan is included as Schedules 2 to this report. The property is zoned Residential One (111) in the Township's Zoning By-law and the applicant is requesting the following relief from Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended: Development Services Report No. DS2019-017 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 7 Page 108 of 457 6.c) 6:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-17, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann...

Analysis: 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. Since the proposed lot area and frontages is appropriate to the growth and character of the community (Shanty Bay), the proposed Minor Variances are considered to be generally consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement 2014. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Places to Grow, the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) is the Provincial government's initiative to plan for growth and development in a way that supports economic prosperity, protects the environment, and helps communities achieve a high quality of life. Specifically, Section 2.2.9 Rural Areas is applicable to this application. Section 4.2.2 Natural Heritage System has also been reviewed by Planning staff with respect to the proposed application. The Natural Heritage System policies of the Growth Plan regulate, restrict or prohibits development and site alteration in or adjacent to Key Natural Heritage Features (e.g. significant woodlands, wetlands, Areas of Natural and Scientific Interest) or Key Hydrological Features (e.g. permanent streams, intermittent streams, inland lakes and their littoral zones, seepage areas and springs). The Province has mapped a Natural Heritage System for the Greater Golden Horseshoe to support a comprehensive, integrated and long-term approach to planning for the protection of the region's natural heritage and biodiversity which was released on February 9, 2018. Planning staff have reviewed the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Natural Heritage System mapping applicable to the subject property and the Development Services Report No. DS2019-017 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 7 Page 109 of 457 6.c) 6:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-17, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... surrounding area and confirm the mapping identifies a woodland area to the west of the subject lands. However, Section 4.2.2.1 of the Growth Plan states that the Natural Heritage System mapping will exclude lands within the settlement area boundaries that were approved and in effect as of July 1, 2017. This section would apply in this situation as the subject lands are within a settlement area boundary and designated as of July 1, 2017 for development. Based on the above, it is Planning Staff's_ opinion that this application is consistent with the Growth Plan as the lands subject to this application are already within an established residential area. County of Simcoe Official Plan Pursuant to Schedule 5.1 of the County's Official Plan, Shanty Bay is identified as a "Settlement" in the Township, the boundaries of which Section 3.5.4 of the County's Official Pian states "are shown in local municipal official plans and are considered to be the approved settlement area boundaries of this Plan." Settlements are developed at higher densities which means that more resource lands and environmentally valuable lands can be conserved. The wide range of land uses provides an opportunity for people to live, work, shop and find recreation in one compact community. It is the opinion of Development Services Staff that this application conforms to the County Official Plan. However, since the County's comments have not been received as of the preparation of this report, it is recommended that the Committee have regard for any comments that may be received prior to the Committee's decision. Does the variance conform to the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The subject lands are designated Rural Settlement Area within the Township's Official Plan. Pursuant to the policies of the OP, permitted development within the Township's settlement areas include single detached dwellings. Based on the above, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the requested variance conforms to the Official Plan. Does the variance conform to the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The subject property is zoned Residential One (R1) Zone in the Township's Zoning By- law 97-95, as amended. Single detached dwellings are permitted uses within the R1 Zone. The existing single detached dwelling on the lot is a Non -Complying Structure as it does not meet the required exterior side yard setback of 4.5 metres (14.76 feet) from the north property line. The Zoning By-law's requirement for a minimum exterior side yard setback of 4.5 metres (14.76 feet) in the R1 Zone and is intended to provide spatial separation between the residence and the road. The applicant is proposing to maintain the same setback as the existing dwelling but would like to add an attached garage. The existing cottage has one corner of the dwelling at the 0.0 metre setback. By adding 7.3 metres (24.0 feet) of garage along the property line would not meet the general intent as it would not provide a spatial separation from the garage to the road. The Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-017 Page 3 of 7 Page 110 of 457 6.c) 6:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-17, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... spatial separation is required for maintenance as well as providing an adequate driveway, which would allow the applicant proper view of oncoming traffic. For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered not to meet the general intent of the Zoning By-law at this time. Is the variance desirable for the appropriate development of the lot? Upon site visit, Planning staff has identified that the existing location of the dwelling and the proposed garage addition will have little to no impact on the neighbouring properties but will cause issues for the Townships Operations Department specifically in regards to snow plowing. The attached garage would prohibit snow plow operators from moving snow along the road without the potential of damaging the garage. For the reasons outlined above, the requested variances is not considered desirable development of the lot at this time. Is the variance minor? Staff are of the opinion that the requested Minor Variance to permit a non -complying building or structure to be enlarged to a maximum floor area of 44.59 square metres (480.0 square feet) with a 0.0 metre exterior side yard setback is not minor. The proposed addition does not provide adequate separation between the dwelling and the road. The location of the garage would also cause concerns for traffic. By exiting the garage the driver of the vehicle would not be able to see if other vehicles are on the road until the vehicle as completely exited the garage, which at that point the applicant's vehicle will be on the road. For the reasons outlined above, the requested variances is not considered minor. The applicant may wish to have further discussions with relevant Township Staff and make modifications to the proposal for further review.

File #: 4346-030-010-01000 8996 Highway 12 D10-56198 Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only 1 It is recommended: 1. That Report No. DS2019-013 be received and adopted. 2. That Consent Application 2019-B-01, pertaining to lands municipally known as 8996 Highway 12, to permit the creation of a new residential lot consisting of a severed parcel having an area of approximately 0.33 hectares (0.81 acres) and a frontage of approximately 30.48 metres (100.0 feet); and a retained parcel consisting of a lot area of approximately 0.89 hectares (2.19 acres) and a frontage of approximately 60.96 metres (200 feet), be denied on the basis that the proposed development does not conform to the policies of the Township's Official Plan with regards to the settlement area policies for Prices Corners. 3. And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary Treasurer's signature. � Background: The subject property is located at 8996 Highway 12. The lot is approximately 1.22 hectares (3.0 acres) in size and contains a single detached dwelling and a few detached accessory buildings. A Location Map is included as Schedule 1 to this report and an aerial image is included as Schedule 2 to this report. Consent Application 2019-B-01 proposes to create a new residential lot. The applicant's consent sketch is included as Schedule 3 to this report. The severed parcel, which is currently vacant, is intended for future residential use. The severed lot is proposed to have an area of approximately 0.33 hectares (0.81 acres) and approximately 30.48 metres (100.00 feet) of frontage on both Highway 12 and Bass Line. Development Services Report No. DS2019-013 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 10 Page 126 of 457 6.d) 6:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-13, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Conse... The lands proposed to be retained are intended for continued residential use and would retain approximately 60.96 metres (200.0 feet) of frontage on both Highway 12 and Bass Line and would occupy an area of approximately 0.89 hectares (2.19 acres). A summary of the severed and retained parcels is provided in the table below. Lands to be Severed: Lands to be Retained: Frontage: Approximately 30.48 m. (100.0 ft.) Approximately 60.96m. (200.0 ft.) Area: A roximately 0.33 ha (0.81 ac.) Approximately 0.89 ha (2.19 ac. Use: Future Residential Residential Analysis: Provincial Policies Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) The Provincial Policy Statement (2014) provides policy direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Specifically, Section 1.1.3 — Settlement Areas, Section 1.1.4 — Rural Areas and Section 2.1 — Natural Heritage are applicable to this application. The PPS seeks to direct growth to settlement areas, specifically, Section 1.1.3.1 states: "Settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and development, and their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted" (PPS, 2014, p. 7). Furthermore, Section 1.1.3.4 states: "appropriate development standards should be promoted which facilitate intensification, redevelopment and compact form" (PPS, 2014, p. 8). Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement since the proposed residential lot is located within a rural settlement area and it is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the nearby woodland and unevaluated wetland. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) provides a long-term plan to manage growth and protect the natural environment. The Growth Plan directs development to settlement areas. Specifically, Section 2.2.1.2 (b) permits limited growth in settlement areas that are not serviced by existing or planned municipal water and wastewater systems. Section 2.2.9, Rural Areas, is applicable to this application and Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed residential lot is consistent with the Rural Areas policies as the lands subject to this application are located within a rural settlement area. Based on the Province of Ontario's natural heritage system mapping, the subject lands are located near key natural heritage features, specifically a woodland and unevaluated wetland, as illustrated on Schedule 4 to this report. As per Section 4.2.2.1 of the Growth Plan "The Natural Heritage System mapping will exclude lands within settlement area boundaries that were approved and in effect as of July 1, 2017" (p.41). Although the Natural Heritage System does not extend into the settlement area boundary, the Development Services Report No. DS2019-013 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 10 Page 127 of 457 6.d) 6:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-13, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Conse... Growth Plan's natural heritage mapping has identified a woodland and unevaluated wetland within 120 metres of the proposed development. It should be noted that the Township's Official Plan does not identify these natural heritage features as significant, yet this area is designated Greenlands in the County of Simcoe Official Plan. In Planning Staff's opinion, the proposed severance conforms to the Growth Plan as the subject lands are located within a rural settlement area and further, the subject property is separated from the key natural heritage features by Bass Line which would act as a buffer from the woodland and unevaluated wetland and no adverse impacts are foreseen on the nearby natural heritage features. County of Simcoe Official Plan The subject lands are designated Settlements in the County of Simcoe's Official Plan. Pursuant to Table 5.1 of the County's Official Plan, Price's Corners is recognized as a settlement area in the Township. As indicated in Section 3.5.7, "Settlement Areas shall be the focus of population and employment growth and their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted" (Simcoe County Official Plan, 2016, p. 27). Additionally, Section 3.3 of the County's Official Plan contains "General Development Policies" for lot creation. Specifically, Section 3.3.4 states: "Lots may be created only where they have access to and frontage on a public highway and where an access permit to that highway can be obtained in accordance with the policies of this Plan and the County of Simcoe, the Province of Ontario, or local municipalities." (Simcoe County Official Plan, 2016, p. 18). In this case, both the severed and retained parcels would have frontages on both Highway 12 and Bass Line. The Ministry of Transportation (MTO) will not provide direct access off Highway 12; therefore, access to the severed lands must be off Bass Line, which is a municipal road. In Planning Staff's opinion, the proposed consent appears to generally conform to these policies as the proposed lot is limited in size and located within a rural settlement area, which is already developed, and therefore it is not anticipated to have any adverse effect on any agricultural uses or environmental features. As of the preparation of this report, Planning Staff have not received comments from the County. Committee members should have regard to any County comments that may be received. Township of Oro-Medonte's Official Plan The subject property is designated 'Rural Settlement Area' in the Township's Official Plan, see Schedule 5. Permitted uses in the Rural Settlement Area designation include low density residential uses. The Official Plan seeks to direct new residential development to settlement areas; however, it prohibits new development in Prices Corners. Specifically, Section A4.2.8, 'Forest Home and Prices Corners', states: "No additional development will occur, other than on existing lots of record, in Forest Home and Prices Corners. These settlement areas are located in close proximity to the City of Orillia urban area. Development in these areas would conflict with the intent of this Plan to protect the rural character of the Township and to ensure that the expansion of the Orillia urban service area in the future is cost-effective and efficient" (p. 24). This restriction in Prices Corners as well as Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-013 Page 3 of 10 Page 128 of 457 6.d) 6:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-13, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Conse... similar restrictions in the Township's Restricted Rural designations adjacent to the boundaries of the cities of Orillia and Barrie, were put in place to prevent development that might create conditions that could lead to municipal annexation of lands in Oro- Medonte. Based on the above, Planning Staff are of the opinion that the proposed residential lot does not conform to the Township's Official Plan policies on the basis that it consists of development on a proposed new lot, which is prohibited in the Prices Corners settlement area. Township of Oro-Medonte's Zoning By-law 97-95 The subject lands are zoned Residential One (R1) in the Township's Zoning By-law 97- 95, as amended. As indicated in Table B1 of the Township's Zoning By-law, the minimum lot frontage in the R1 Zone is 30 metres (98.4 feet) and the minimum lot area is 0.2 hectares (0.49 acres). Both the severed and retained parcels are through lots with frontages on Highway 12 and Bass Line, all of which comply with the Township's minimum lot frontage requirement. The proposed lot areas meet the Zoning By-law requirements and are also well-suited for their continued and proposed residential use. The proposed lot sizes are comparable to other properties in the area and would not be out of character for the neighbourhood. [Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision. ,, PolicieslLegislation: • Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13 • Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 • Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2017 • 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: The Township's following Strategic Goal is relevant to this application: Balanced Growth, Continuous Improvement and Fiscal Responsibility. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed development is not consistent with the Strategic Plan, since it does not conform to Official Plan policies that were adopted to guard against the loss of rural character and land tax base.

Consultations: A notice sign was posted on the property and notice of the application was circulated to relevant agencies, Township Departments and to assessed property owners within a 60 -metre (200 feet) radius of the lands. As of the preparation of this report, the following comments have been received: • Simcoe County District School Board: No objection. • Building Department: Applicant to provide layout for proposed structures as well as sewage system to serve the property. Applicant to provide well locations for all surrounding wells. • Bell Canada: No comments. • Development Engineering: No objection. • MTO: Highway 12 is a class 2B highway. The maximum density is 4 entrances/km/side. I believe the permitted number of entrances has already been exceeded on the highway. All access shall be off the municipal road. Direct highway 12 access is not permitted. A MTO building and land use permit is required prior to construction. A grading plan and site plan will be required in support of the permit application. All buildings, structures and essential site features should be setback a minimum of 14m from the MTO highway property limit.

File #: D13 56230 For Information Only 1. That Report No. DS2019-014 be received and adopted. 2. That Minor Variance Application 2019-A-04 by Chris Kavchak & Stephanie Stone specifically to permit the construction of a detached accessory building with a height of 6.0 metres (19.8 feet) and a maximum floor area of 154.0 square metres (1664.0 square feet) on lands municipally known as 1176 Line 6 North, be approved. 3. That the following conditions be imposed on the Committee's decision: a) That notwithstanding Section 5.1.4 and 5.1.6, the proposed detached accessory building shall otherwise comply with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning By-law; b) That the proposed detached accessory building 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 appropriate LSRCA Permit, Zoning Certificate, Engineered Lot Grading Plan, and Building Permit be obtained from the Township only after the Committee's decision becomes final and binding, as provided for within the Planning Act R.S.O. 1990, c.P. 13. 4. And that the applicants be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject property has a lot area of 20.2 hectares (50 acres). The property currently supports a single detached dwelling having an area of 427.3 sq.m. (4600 sq.ft.) and two existing sheds with areas of 17.8 sq.m (192 sq.ft.) and 27.9 sq.m. (300 sq.ft.). Development Services Report No. DS2019-014 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 12 Page 152 of 457 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, Planner re: Minor ... The applicants are proposing to construct a 154 sq. m. (1664 sq. ft.) detached accessory building (garage) to be located within the front yard. The applicants are requesting relief from the following Section of Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended: 5.1.4 — Maximum he Required: 4.5 m (14.7 ft.) 5.1.6 — Maximum floor area Required: 100 sq. m. (1076.4 sq. ft.) Proposed: 6 m (19.8 ft.) Proposed: 154.6 sq. m. (1664.0 sq. ft.) The applicant's site plan and elevation drawings are included as Schedules 3 and 4 to this report. Analysis: Provincial Policies Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Specifically, Section 1.1.4 — Rural Areas, Section 2.1 — Natural Heritage, and Section 2.2 — Water are applicable to this application. The Rural Areas policies have been reviewed and Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement. The PPS defines `development' as "the creation of a new lot, a change in land use, or the construction of buildings and structures requiring approval under the Planning Act..." Section 2.1, Natural Heritage, seeks to protect natural features for the long term. The proposed detached accessory building is located within 120m of a significant woodland feature and provincially significant wetland located on the subject lands; therefore, a natural heritage evaluation is required to ensure that the proposed detached accessory building will not adversely impact the natural heritage features. The applicant has submitted to the Township a Memorandum (February 5, 2019), from Ages Environmental and Planning Consultants Limited, which concludes: "The accessory building ... will require the removal of three landscape trees (White Pines) but they are not part of a woodland. ...As only landscape trees will be cut, l don't find there will be any significant environmental concerns with their removals.... In order to avoid nesting birds and the Migratory Birds Convention Act issues, tree removals should not occur between April 15 and August 15 in any year". Development Services Report No. DS2019-014 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 12 Page 153 of 457 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, Planner re: Minor ... It should be noted that the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) has already issued a permit dated November 26, 2018, for the detached accessory building in the proposed location (refer to Schedule 3). It should also be noted that the natural heritage Memorandum (Ages Environmental and Planning Consultants Limited, February 5, 2019) was forwarded by Planning Staff to the LSRCA for review. The LSRCA has provided the Township with comments dated February 28, 2019 which request that the requirement for a LSRCA permit be included in any conditions of Minor Variance approval imposed by Township. Based on the professional natural heritage opinion (Memorandum, Ages Environmental and Planning Consultants Limited, February 5, 2019) that has been provided to the Township and based on the permit (November 26, 2018) that has been issued by the LSRCA, Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the Natural Heritage policies of the PPS. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2017 The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) provides a long-term plan to manage growth and protect the natural environment. Section 2.2.9 Rural Areas is applicable to this application. This section has been reviewed and Planning Staff are of the opinion that the proposed detached accessory building is consistent with the Rural Areas policies in the Growth Plan as the lands subject to this application are already within an established lot with residential use. Based on the Province's mapping of key natural heritage features, the proposed development is located within 120 metres of a woodland, provincially significant wetland and unevaluated wetland feature, as illustrated on Schedule 5 of this report. As a result, Section 4.2.4 Lands Adjacent to Key Hydrological Features and Key Natural Heritage Features also applies to this application. Specifically, Section 4.2.4.1 states: "Outside settlement areas, a proposal for new development or site alteration within 120 metres of a key natural heritage feature within the Natural Heritage System or a key hydrologic feature will require a natural heritage evaluation or hydrologic evaluation that identifies a vegetation protection zone, which: a) is of sufficient width to protect the key natural heritage feature or key hydrologic feature and its functions from the impacts of the proposed change; b) is established to achieve and be maintained as natural self-sustaining vegetation; and, c) for key hydrologic features, fish habitat, and significant woodlands, are no less than 30 metres measured from the outside boundary of the key natural heritage feature or key hydrologic feature." (p. 44 of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2017). It should be noted that the Township's Official Plan identifies this portion of the nearby woodland as significant. The County of Simcoe Official Plan also identifies it as significant, and as such, is designated Greenlands. The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority has outlined their concerns in their approved permit for this application. Based on the aerial imagery and Staff's site visit, the proposed detached Development Services Report No. DS2019-014 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 12 Page 154 of 457 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, Planner re: Minor ... accessory building will be located more than 30 metres from the woodland and wetland features. In Planning Staff's opinion, a natural heritage evaluation is required as the proposed development is within 120m of natural heritage features and is in the Environmental Protection Two Zone. The detached accessory building will be located in the Environmental Protection Two zone on the subject lands. Based on the professional natural heritage opinion (Memorandum, Ages Environmental and Planning Consultants Limited, February 5, 2019) that has been provided to the Township and the permit (November 26, 2018) that has been issued by the LSRCA, Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application conforms to the Natural Heritage policies of the Growth Plan 2017. County Official Plan The property is designated Greenlands in Simcoe County's Official Plan. The intent of the Greenlands designation is to protect and restore the natural heritage system. Permitted uses in the Greenlands designation include agricultural uses; agriculture - related uses; on-farm diversified uses; forestry uses; mineral aggregate operations; outdoor passive recreational uses; and residential dwelling units that demonstrate that the lands are not within a prime agricultural area. According to Section 3.8.16, legally existing uses within the Greenlands system will be recognized and can continue. In Planning Staff's opinion, the applicant's minor variance application conforms with the County's Official Plan as the construction of a detached accessory building is considered an accessory use to the existing residential use on the subject lands. Plannina Act, R.S.O. 1990. c. P.13 Section 3(5) of the Planning Act states that all decisions in respect of the exercise of any authority that affects a planning matter shall be consistent with provincial policy statements and shall conform with or shall not conflict with the provincial plans that are in effect on the date of the decision. Section 45(1) of the Planning Act establishes a four -fold test for a minor variance which requires consideration of: (1) whether the variance is minor; (2) whether the variance is desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land, building or structure; (3) whether the general purpose and intent of the zoning by-law is maintained; and (4) whether the general purpose and intent of the Official Plan is maintained. A variance must meet all four of these tests. Planning Staff has reviewed this application against these four tests as follows: Do the variances conform to the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The subject lands are designated Environmental Protection One, Environmental Protection Two and Agriculture in the Township's Official Plan. The purpose of the Environmental Protection designation is to protect environmentally sensitive area from Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-014 Page 4 of 12 Page 155 of 457 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, Planner re: Minor ... incompatible activities and uses that would have a negative impact on significant natural features and functions. Pursuant to the policies of the Plan, permitted uses within the Environmental Protection Two Zone shall follow the underlying designation which is the Agriculture designation. The Agriculture designation permits single detached dwellings and by extension accessory uses to the residential use. Therefore, based on the above, the requested variances pertaining to the construction of one (1) detached accessory building, which is accessory to the main residential use of the subject lands, is considered to conform to the Official Plan. Do the variances conform to the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The subject property is zoned Environmental Protection (EP) and Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) in the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended. Single detached dwellings and by extension detached accessory buildings, are permitted in the Agricultural/Rural Zone. Construction in the EP zone is prohibited. The applicants are proposing to build a detached accessory building at the front of the dwelling within the A/RU zone and are seeking relief from the Zoning By-law to allow for the building to be larger in size and height than is permitted in the zone. The proposed development of the lands requires relief from the Zoning By-law to permit the construction of a detached accessory building with a height of 6.0 metres (19.8 feet) and a maximum floor area of 154.0 square metres (1664.0 square feet). The general intent of the Zoning By-law in limiting the size and height of an accessory buildings, such as garages, is to ensure the dwelling remains primary in both use and appearance on the lands, particularly when viewed from the street. Upon visiting the site, Staff noted that the location of the proposed garage in front of the dwelling would make it the first building to be seen upon entering the lot. Nevertheless, in Planning Staff's opinion, the proposed garage, at 154.6 sq. m. (1664.0 sq. ft.) would be sufficiently smaller than the dwelling, at 427.3 sq.m. (4600 sq.ft.), to ensure that the dwelling maintains its appearance as the dominant structure on the property. For the reasons outlined above, the requested variances are considered to meet the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the variances desirable for the appropriate development of the lot? Since the applicants are proposing a structure within LSRCA Regulated lands, Planning Staff rely on the expertise of the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority. In this case, the LSRCA has approved Permit No. OP. 2018.082 for the proposed detached accessory building. The size and location of the building will not interfere with functional matters such as parking and the septic. Based on the above, Planning Staff are satisfied that the proposed development would be considered desirable for the appropriate redevelopment of the lot. Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-014 Page 5 of 12 Page 156 of 457 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, Planner re: Minor ... Is the variances minor? The question of the minor nature of the variances relates to its scale and impact. In Planning Staff's opinion, the requested Minor Variances to allow for a detached accessory building with an increased size and height is minor in nature as it is not anticipated to have an adverse impact on the neighbouring properties. The property is large in size (20.2 ha/ 50 ac) and the detached accessory building cannot be seen from the road as the lands are heavily vegetated with large, mature trees. 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 are not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character of the surrounding area, the variances are considered to be minor. Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision.

Staff are of the opinion that the proposed development will not negatively impact the Township's natural features and attributes.

LSRCA.on.ca File No: 2019-A-04 IMS File No.:VA-117552-022019 Thank you for circulating the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) on the above noted Minor Variance application. We understand that the purpose and effect of this application is to permit the construction of a detached accessory building (garage) with a height and floor area that exceeds what is currently permitted in the zoning by-law. The LSRCA has reviewed this application in context of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), the Growth Plan (2017), Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP), and Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the Conservation Authorities Act. Current environmental mapping shows that the subject property is within an area governed by Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the Conservation Authorities Act. This is representative of the Provincially Significant Wetland (Hawkestone Wetland Complex). Accordingly, any site alteration or development within an area governed by Ontario Regulation 179/06 will be required to be designed in accordance with the LSRCA Watershed Development Guidelines and a permit from the LSRCA will be required prior to any site alteration or development. The proposed garage is located opposite the existing house which is located within the PSW's Vegetation Protection Zone. The PSW will be buffered by the existing house. The provided materials show that the garage will be within an area governed by Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the Conservation Authorities Act and will therefore require a permit from LSRCA. On this basis, any approval of this application should be subject to the following conditions: 1. The Owner shall obtain a permit from LSRCA for works within the regulated area 120 Bayview Parkway T 905.895.1281 Newmarket, Ontario L3Y 3W3 F 905.853.5881 Member of Conservation Ontario Page 169 0IF451•800.465.0437 6.e) 6:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-14, Danielle Waters, PlPAeirjmv(micor ... conservation authority Page 2 of 3 Should you have any questions concerning these comments, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned.

TDh - Of Report Report No. To: DS2019-016 Development Services Committee Meeting Date: March 6, 2019 Roll #: 4346-010-007-17300 Proud Heritage, Exciting Future Subject: Minor Variance Application 2019-A-06 (Cormier) 1170 Line 2 South (Oro) Prepared By: Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner Motion # R.M.S. File #: D13-056238 Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only It is recommended: 1. That Report No. DS2019-016 be received and adopted. 2. That Minor Variance Application 2019-A-06 by Glen Cormier, specifically to permit lot frontages of 22.5 metres (73.8 feet), and a lot areas of 0.10 hectares (0.49 acres) for a proposed severed and retained lot for property located at 1170 Line 2 South, Township of Oro-Medonte, be approved. 3. That, notwithstanding Table 131 of Zoning By-law 97-95, the severed and retained lot shall otherwise comply with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning By - Law; 4. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. [Background: The subject lands are located on the east side of Line 2 North, south of Ridge Road (refer to Schedules 1 and 2). Surrounding land uses consist of residential dwellings. The Development Services Committee granted Consent Application 2018-13-27 to sever one (1) residential lot from lands municipally known as 1170 Line 2 South, at their meeting on January 2, 2019. The severed and retained lands would comprise, a lot area of 0.10 hectares (0.49 acres) and have approximately 22.5 metres (73.8 feet) of frontage on Line 2 South (refer to Schedule 2). As a condition of the Consent, Minor Development Services Report No. DS2019-016 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 7 Page 184 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... Variance Application 2019-A-06 is requesting relief from Table 131 of Zoning By-law 97- 95 — minimum lot size and minimum lot frontage for residential uses: Required Proposed Lot Size 0.2 hectares (0.49 acres) 0.10 hectares (0.24 acres) Lot Frontage 30.0 metres (98.4 feet) 22.5 metres (73.8 feet) Analysis: 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. Since the proposed lot area and frontages is appropriate to the growth and character of the community (Shanty Bay), the proposed Minor Variances are considered to be generally consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement 2014. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe The subject application has been reviewed by planning staff with respect to the Places to Grow policies. Section 2.2.1 of the Growth Plan contains policies for "Managing Growth", and states that "Population and employment growth will be accommodated by — a) directing a significant portion of new growth to the built-up areas of the community through intensification ... [and] 1) directing development to settlement areas ...". Since the proposed development would result in the creation of a residential lot with similar lot area and frontages within a settlement area (Shanty Bay), the proposed development is considered to maintain the general intent of the Province's Growth Plan. County of Simcoe Official Plan Pursuant to Schedule 5.1 of the County's Official Plan, Shanty Bay is identified as a "Settlement" in the Township, the boundaries of which Section 3.5.4 of the County's Official Plan states "are shown in local municipal official plans and are considered to be the approved settlement area boundaries of this Plan." Settlements are developed at higher densities which means that more resource lands and environmentally valuable lands can be conserved. The wide range of land uses provides an opportunity for people to live, work, shop and find recreation in one compact community. It is the opinion of Development Services Staff that this application conforms to the County Official Plan. However, since the County's comments have not been received Development Services Report No. DS2019-016 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 7 Page 185 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... as of the preparation of this report, it is recommended that the Committee have regard for any comments that may be received prior to the Committee's decision. Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan? The subject lands are designated Rural Settlement Area in the Township's Official Plan, and Section A4.2.5 states "Shanty Bay is a settlement area that functions primarily as a residential community". Section C3 contains the policies related to the use and development of land in this designation. Specifically, Section 03.1 and C3.2 of the Official Plan. Section C3.1 sets an objective to create attractive communities with suitable amenities and to ensure that settlement areas are developed in a logical and cost-effective manner. The proposed lot frontages and areas are consistent with other lots within the settlement area, and the lots been developed in an infill manner that is reasonable. Section C3.2 states that "Permitted uses in [this designation include] ... low density residential uses ...". The proposed reduction in lot frontages and areas for residential uses would conform to the general intent of the Township's Official Plan as the lots are within a Rural Settlement Area. 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 lands are zoned Residential One (R1) Zone in the Township's Zoning By- law 97-95. Table 131 of the Township's Zoning By-law requires that a Residential One (R1) Zoned lot have a Minimum Lot Frontage of 30 metres, and a minimum lot area of 0.2 hectares. The general intent for these requirements is to permit the development of private services such as a well and septic system on the property. It would appear that the lot reductions and overall size of the property would not constrain the lands for proper placement of a septic and well, or placement of a single family dwelling as identified in the applicants site plan. (See schedule #2). It should also be noted the proposed dwelling in the application is a concept drawing, and the applicant, if approved could build a different dwelling. The proposed lands are located within the Shanty Bay Settlement area, and are surrounded by existing residential uses, with a broad range of lots with different lot sizes, frontages and configurations. The proposed reduction in lot frontage and area would be considered compatible with the uses taking place on adjacent lands in this area of Shanty Bay and would appear to be appropriate to accommodate a detached dwelling unit while achieving the necessary setbacks as required while maintaining the existing character of the area. Planning Staff is of the opinion that the variance conforms to the general intent of the Zoning By-law and is appropriate for the desirable development of the lot. Development Services Report No. DS2019-016 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 7 Page 186 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... Is the variance minor? As the proposed variance 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 variances are considered to be minor. Financial I Legal Implications I Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal 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, 2017 • 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: In 2016 Council adopted the Township's Strategic Plan. The following Goals of the Plan are relevant to this application: Balanced Growth - Ensure land use planning policies manage change and promote economic activity that does not negatively impact the Township's natural heritage features and attributes. Staff are of the opinion that if the subject minor variance is approved, that the change on the property will not negatively impact the Township's natural features and attributes. Consultations: Notice of the application was circulated to internal departments, applicable agencies, and to assessed landowners within 60 metres (200 feet) of the subject lands. A notice sign was also posted on the lands. As of the preparation of this report the following comments have been received: Operations Division: No objections. The applicant is to be made aware of the requirement to obtain a Road Entrance Permit.

I wish to record my opposition to the above -noted application. My submissions are as follows: 1. It will create a lot roughly half of the minimum lot size mandated by zoning by-law 97-95. 2. The proposed lot frontage will be approximately 25% less than required by zoning by-law 97-95. 3. The undersized lot will increase housing density beyond what already exists in the area. As such, it will change the character of Line 2 South. 4. Variances of the magnitude requested are not minor in nature and I submit they are inappropriate for this committee to grant. 5.The application would result in two dwellings being erected in an area which By-law 97- 95 stipulates should only include one. The added roof and driveway surfaces, septic system and well will add to the already overburdened fragile water table and ecosystem within the Lake Simcoe protection Plan area, 300 metres from the shore. If, in your wisdom, you choose to grant this application, a condition of such consent must be that the existing Victorian residence is retained as the applicant has represented will be done. Do not be persuaded by verbal promises. I urge you to deny this application and preserve the streetscape, character and heritage of the historic Village of Shanty Bay.

I have always believed that municipal by-laws should be adhered to, because they have been passed after much consideration of good planning principles. They are not mere suggestions or guidelines to be followed (or not) depending on political whim or expedience. I object to the above application for the following reasons: (a) It will create a severely undersized lot, which will be approximately one half of the minimum lot size required by by-law 97-95. (b) The lot frontage applied for is 25% less than required by by-law 97-95. The undersized lot is not in keeping with the character of the Line 2 South streetscape; it will increase housing density beyond the existing housing density in the area. It is inappropriate for this committee to grant variances of this magnitude. They are not minor in nature. I urge you to maintain the lot size and frontage which your own by-law states is appropriate for this area. If you grant this application, I have to wonder why we even have a zoning by-law. The application would result in two dwellings being erected in an area which Council, in its wisdom, has already decided is large enough for only one. There will be two wells, two septic systems, and increased storm water runoff from the added roof and driveway surfaces, all of which will add to the burden on the already fragile water table and ecosystem within the Lake Simcoe protection Plan area and 300 metres from the shore. A favourable decision in this application must not be based in any measure on the applicant's representations as to his intention to renovate and occupy the existing Victorian home and build a smaller home on the severed lands (for his cash-strapped in-laws). Plans change. I urge you to deny this application in its entirety and preserve the character and heritage of the historic Village of Shanty Bay.

WHY would council be going against your own zoning bi law 97-95?? You obviously created that bi law for a reason! Smaller lots create more run off into our precious lake. It will also give a crowded "city look" as there will at times for sure be numerous vehicles parked on the street. The frontage being 25 % smaller than township requirements is definitely going to make a new large house look squeezed in. Mr McKaskie bald face lied to council about his "poor I laws" wanting to retire in the village. After being granted permission to go forward he told me that he couldn't guarantee they would still be "alive" when they were ready to retire in the next 5/10 years! Seriously!!! Their retirement was "imminent" during his "heartfelt" speech (which he shouldn't have been allowed to make as Mayor Hughes said he could do only if he was giving new information which he wasn't"! The man's agenda is profit (in my opinion and not a place for his in laws to retire! I don't believe he cares less about the lower village. Why wasn't he just honest with you in the first place. Why do you have the right to call this a minor variance when there is nothing minor about it. What will one small lot do for the township coffers when it has upset so many constituents? Apparently you have all the vacant lots you need for expansion without causing havoc in the old lower village. I ask you most sincerely to reconsider your decision about the said lot.

My points of objection are as outlined below: 1. The Minor variance which is clearly not minor should be rejected due to the reduced lot size and impact of the Mass of the proposed dwelling. 2. The lot size is fully one half of the minimum required from zoning bylaw 97-95 3. The frontage is 25% less than the Minimum required from zoning by-law 97-95 4. The density and lot coverage which will amount to 50% of the lot being built on including driveway and septic weeping tile bed will create storm water and phosphorous run-off within the Lake Simcoe protection Plan area and 300 metres from the shore. 5. The severed lot will require a new drilled well in an area where there are many existing wells, difficulty of locating a viable well and water quantity for surrounding wells will be affected. 6. The smaller lot and mass of the proposed home is not compatible with existing surrounding homes and lower densities on the street 7. Please do not underestimate the implications and effect that a decision to allow this would have on the neighbouring residents and their homes, these are people who have lived and made their life here in Shanty Bay for many years and even generations. These families and their homes would all be impacted due to one person making a financial gain. Page 202 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... On a final note, be mindful that if this variance is granted, which as I see and you know is clearly not minor in nature, the developer can do whatever he wants with the two lots. Let us not be misled to the claim that the developer will renovate and occupy the existing Victorian home and build a smaller home on the severed land for his in-laws. I think we are all intelligent enough to know that is not a truthful claim. Thank you for taking your time to read my concerns and I hope you make your decision with careful consideration and humanity of others.

As a resident of Shanty Bay, this development is inappropriate for the historic Lower Village as it proposes to over -build on the reduced size lots. The zoning By-laws requirements in place for many years were established to protect neighbourhoods from exactly what is being applied for. It clearly sets out MINIMUM standards to follow based on sound planning practices. Those minimums for R1 are .2 Hectare lot area and 30m frontage. The minimums allow space to place septic tile beds and private wells not too close to the neighbouring on site services. To simply by-pass these protections and allow the creation of lots Half the minimum on the flimsy arguments and assumptions contained in the Planning Report will cause a very negative impact on the surrounding properties and on the character and fabric of the neighbourhood. The variances applied for are not minor. The test of whether variances are minor is usually assessed based on impact. This proposal will have a very negative impact on the unique character of the Village as the concept drawing for a 2300 sq. ft. bungalow plus 3 car garage to be placed on a lot half the current size is completely out of scale and mass for the area. It is particularly disturbing that there are no detailed plans in the application- only an outline of a potential building which would leave the door open for anything the developer chooses to build within the prescribed set -backs. The location of neighbouring wells and septic systems are not identified on the application. It is important to consider the impact of another drilled well on an already precarious groundwater system. The impact of another septic system for a large home with numerous bathrooms will create more phosphorous in the lake. The hard surface coverage of the lot which is presently 94% grass and trees and 6% building, will increase to 40% hard surface or more depending on what is built, thus creating run-off onto neighbouring lands and beyond. This is not a Minor Adjustment to the zoning by-law- it is a complete circumvention. Setting this precedent is a folly which will lead to many more applications of this sort. Developers will be clamouring to purchase properties with large lots, tear down existing homes and subdivide the lots for profit.

If you proceed with one application approval, there is obviously the potential for several further. The need for septic tank and tile bed space is paramount with Lake Simcoe being so close to this lot. If we destroy the water quality for our future generations in a short-sighted approach, then all future generations will lose. In addition, each lot will require a separate well. There clearly is a finite resource in our aquifers underground and the limit is unknown. One change may not have any effect, but several most likely would. When, and if, there is a shared municipal water and sewage service, then you can decide on the merits of approving applications like this one at that time. Please consider carefully the effect on our future generations, before making short sighted exceptions..

We moved to Lower Shanty Bay in 2014 specifically in appreciation of the large lots, magnificent trees and heritage houses. Lower Shanty Bay is one of the more unique historical village communities in Oro-Medonte due to the eclectic houses, many dating back to the original settlement of the village. The charm of small dwellings on large lots providing lots of room for vegetation and privacy is important to the appeal of the village. We would suggest that the so called minor variance is not minor in that it requests a lot smaller by one half of the minimum lot size required by the zoning bylaw 97-95. As well, we are concerned that the variance would allow for a lot with 25% less frontage than required by zoning bylaw 97-95. We have concerns regarding the supply and safety of well water should a new well and septic system be installed on such a small piece of land. How will a new drilled well effect the existing neighbouring wells? Regarding spring run-off, it is well known that many homes in Lower Shanty Bay have sump pumps that are consistently active during early spring as the winter snow load melts and the underground streams move the water towards Lake Simcoe from the farmlands and residential subdivisions north of Ridge Road. Will the development of this property redirect the route of the yearly spring run off through neighbouring properties and potentially cause basement flooding? Once the variance is approved, we fear that this will set a precedent for future profit motivated developers to come in and make similar requests without regard to the village's historical ambiance. Not only that, what is to stop the new owner from tearing down the existing house on the southern lot and building another large house, creating two large houses on small lots side by side? This would drastically change the character of the surrounding neighbourhood. In conclusion, we 100% object to the request of the application for a minor variance at 1179 Line 2 South, Shanty Bay, f Cathy an% Perry Camisso CV Date Page 206 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS201�-16 J?58 V9V athpreII In ermedi�e PIcInn... arch 6 1 eve opm�nt ervices ommi tee 6f) Additional correspondence received From: Christine Lang <clangl206@gmail.com> Sent: Sunday, March 3, 2019 2:58 PM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: Application 2019-A-06 Dear Mayor Hughes and Members of Council for Oro-Medonte: I am writing to object to the above mentioned application for minor variance. My reason for objecting is that it seems to be in direct contravention of the existing by-law 97-95 governing rural property sizes in Oro-Medonte, which was enacted for good and valid reasons. I am aware and understand that there already exists smaller properties within the villages of Oro-Medonte but these were established prior to the existing by-law which specifies a minimum of a half -acre in order to accommodate a well and septic system for a single dwelling. This application, 2019-A-06, is not for a minor variance, but a major variance, one which would set an unwanted precedent. This precedent has the potential to jeopardize the relationship between existing settlements that surround Lake Simcoe as well as other bodies of water within the township. I am asking Council not to set this precedent but to respect by-law 97-95 as it now exists. Unless you have a good reason why this by-law does not protect everyone's best interest, there is no reason to ignore it. Respectfully submitted for your consideration, Christine A.

These variances are not minor and will have a tremendous negative impact on the character of the Lower Village. Current zoning bylaws are being directly contradicted by the proposed use of this property. Bypassing minimum lot sizes, maximum structural area, setback restrictions and frontage requirements shows a complete disregard for sound planning practices. It is irresponsible to allow any variances without the submission of detailed plans which support strategies to minimize environmental impact to tree lines and the water table. It is naive to assume this developer has anything besides monetary gains in mind. I am struggling to understand why Mr McCaskie does not offer one of his several other residences to his inlaws, not that it is our collective responsibility to provide affordable housing for his relatives. His actions with his properties have shown complete lack of respect for our community and the environment and I am having difficulty understanding why this individual should be permitted to ignore the bylaws that are put in place to protect our village. Hopefully the Committee will carefully consider the interests of our community and demonstrate respect for the processes in place to preserve the character and integrity of our village.

It is particularly disturbing that there are no detailed plans in the application- only an outline of a potential building which would leave the door open for anything the developer chooses to build within the prescribed set -backs. The location of neighbouring wells and septic systems are not identified on the application. It is important to consider the impact of another drilled well on an already precarious groundwater system. The impact of another septic system for a large home with numerous bathrooms will create more phosphorous in the lake. The hard surface coverage of the lot which is presently 94% grass and trees and 6% building, will increase to 40% hard surface or more depending on what is built, thus creating run-off onto neighbouring lands and beyond. This is not a Minor Adjustment to the zoning by-law- it is a complete circumvention. Setting this precedent is a folly which will lead to many more applications of this sort.

As a resident of Shanty Bay, this development is inappropriate for the historic Lower Village as it proposes to over -build on the reduced size lots. The zoning By-laws requirements in place for many years were established to protect neighbourhoods from exactly what is being applied for. It clearly sets out MINIMUM standards to follow based on sound planning practices. Those minimums for R1 are .2 Hectare lot area and 30m frontage. The minimums allow space to place septic tile beds and private wells not too close to the neighbouring on site services. To simply by-pass these protections and allow the creation of lots Half the minimum on the flimsy arguments and assumptions contained in the Planning Report will cause a very negative impact on the surrounding properties and on the character and fabric of the neighbourhood. The variances applied for are not minor. The test of whether variances are minor is usually assessed based on impact. This proposal will have a very negative impact on the unique character of the Village as the concept drawing for a 2300 sq ft bungalow plus 3 car garage to be placed on a lot half the current size is completely out of scale and mass for the area.

This Minor Variance application is a continuum of the decision which granted the provisional severance on January 2nd 2019. Staff and Council should have recognized that the requested consent 2018-B-27 could not be considered a minor deviation from the bylaw and therefore should not have used such an enabling condition in the provisional consent. It was not reasonable for Council to use the minor variance provision in this way and should have requested the developer seek a zoning by-law amendment or at the very least apply for consent and minor variance concurrently. It appears the developer is applying for a minor variance on only ONE of the lots at this time. The address on the notice and planning report is 1170 Line 2 s which does not exist so one can assume this address represents the severed lot? The planning report states the severed and retained lots would comprise a lot area of .10 Hectares(.49 acres) when in fact they would be .24 acres each and the total sum of the 2 lots is .2 Hectares and .49 acres. This is confusing and misleading to council. A Minor Variance must meet 4 tests: 1. Does the Variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan The planning report references generalizations in Section C3 about rural settlement areas and states only that "permitted uses in this designation include .... low density residential uses..." (sched A), but is silent on reduced lot sizes. There is an entire section specifically for Shanty Bay which staff does not reference at all. It reads "Shanty Bay is a settlement area that functions primarily as a residential community. As a result of concerns about the long range impacts of additional development on private septic systems in the community, new development in Shanty Bay will be restricted to those lands that have already been approved for development in the previous Township of Oro Official Plan. New development in Shanty Bay will be serviced by an expansion to the existing communal water system ..." (see schedule B) Both The Oro- Medonte and Simcoe County Official Plans direct new development to Settlement Areas which are serviced by municipal water and sewers. There are no municipal services in the Lower Village and the Township has no plans to extend the communal water system below Ridge Rd. There are concerns about soil quality and run-off with the addition of more private septic systems under the OP and concerns about water quality and quantity with new drilled well requirements. The planning department's use and interpretation of the OP to justify the development is misleading. Page 218 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... 2. 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 intent of the by-law requirements for a minimum lot size of .2 hectare and 30 metre frontage is to permit the development of private septic system and well. The Planning report over -simplifies the impact of smaller lot size stating "!t would appear that the lot reductions and overall size of the property would not constrain the proper placement of septic and well or placement of a single family dwelling as per the applicants site plan. It should be noted the proposed dwelling in the application is a concept drawing and the applicant, if approved could build a different dwelling." "It would appear" is not good enough. Where is the septic proposal and hydrogeology report for the well? How can planning staff make assumptions about well and septic when the proposed concept drawing represents a building almost 3 times the size of the existing home on half the size lot which would have at least three bathrooms? The existing homes in the area experience well water quantity issues. Why is staff processing an application for a Minor Variance when there are no details such as, but not limited to: lot coverage, design, structure placement, height, setbacks, septic and well placement? Having this information as part of this application is paramount and will ensure due diligence of process. If this minor variance is approved without that information, minimum Zoning By-law set -backs which would apply to this reduced non -complying lot, would mean the developer could build a 5575 sq ft bulding footprint plus driveway, sheds and decks. That represents 52% lot coverage. Add a driveway for a 3 car garage, decks and paths, and coverage could easily run to 75%. The report states that within the Shanty Bay Settlement area, "a broad range of lot sizes, frontages and configurations. The proposed reduction in lot frontage and area would be considered compatible with uses taking place on adjacent lands in this area of Shanty Bay and would appear appropriate to accommodate a detached dwelling...... while maintaining the existing character of the area". The smaller lots are comprised of the following 7 lots out of 79 lots in the lower village having .25 acres or less: 11 Church st .19 acre 7% lot coverage 1156 Line 2 s .24 acre 6% lot coverage 1224 Line 2 s .18 acre 12% lot coverage 1228 Line 2 s .24 acre 11% lot coverage 1234 Line 2 s .16 acre 13% lot coverage 50 Church st .23 acre 11% lot coverage 51 Church st .21 acre 11% lot coverage These lots were created 45 to 100 years ago, prior to the current By-law 97-95 and without exception, contain modest dwellings with mature foliage in between. The neighbouring properties to the subject are substantially larger than the proposed .25 acres having areas of .5 acre, .35 acre, and .83 acre. The maximum lot coverage of the immediate neighbours is 8.5% The proposed concept dwelling would occupy 24% of the lot and as staff points out, the applicant could build a different (read bigger) dwelling. That is not "appropriate for the desirable development of the lot' or maintaining the character of the Page 219 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... area by building a monster home on a half -sized lot. That density does not exist in Shanty Bay. Oro- Medonte does not have a By-law limiting lot coverage. This type of minor variance circumvents the By- law and should be denied as there are no means to control the eventual outcome. 3) Planning Act RSO 1990, Provincial Policy Statement, Places to Grow Act and GGH Plan When reviewing superseding acts and policy it is imperative to keep in mind the rationale behind them before its policies are applied to specific local planning issues. Provincial Policy Statement simply states that 1.1.3.1 "in rural areas, rural settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and development and their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted." "Land use patterns within settlement areas shall be based on 1.1.3.2 a) 2. Are appropriate for and efficiently use, the infrastructure and public service facilities which are planned or available...." Section 1.1.4.3 states "When directing development in rural settlement areas...planning authorities shall give consideration to rural characteristics, the scale of development and the provision of appropriate service levels." Clearly the scale of the proposal is significantly larger than the existing and surrounding homes and proposed in an area that is not required for infill to meet future housing needs. Further, there is no municipal infrastructure besides a road. Places to Grow Act and Greater Golden Horseshoe Plan Section 2.1 "plan's emphasis on optimizing the use of the existing urban land supply represents an intensification first approach to development and city -building, one which focuses on making better use of our existing infrastructure and public service facilities..." Clearly this references urban areas and cities. The following paragraph refers to rural communities. "Strong, healthy and prosperous rural communities are also vital to the economic success of the GGH and contribute to our quality of life. The Plan recognizes and promotes the important role of rural towns and villages as a focus of economic, cultural and social activities that support surrounding rural and agricultural areas across the GGH." This rural section does not include 'intensification' or infilling in rural areas. While the act directs growth to settlement areas, Under Sec 2.2.1 Managing Growth, 2. "Forecasted growth to the horizon of the Plan will be allocated based on the following: a) The vast majority of growth will be directed to settlement areas that; i)Have a delineated boundary H)have existing or planned municipal water and wastewater systems and iii) can support the achievement of complete communities"(sched C) 4) Simcoe County Official Plan Simply identifies Shanty Bay as a settlement area in the Township with higher densities than rural lands. Our zoning By-laws have appropriate densities for both rural and settlement areas. Simcoe OP is not specific with regards to development of Rural Settlement areas. Further, the County's comments have not been received. Page 220 of 457 6.f) 6:50 p.m. Report No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann... 5) Is The variance minor? The planning report repeats the irrelevant points made earlier. Oro-Medonte does not define "Minor Variance". Other cities and towns describe a minor variance as "a method to seek relief from zoning by-laws when hardship or circumstance does not allow an individual to meet the standards set out in the by-laws." (Schedule D -definitions for minor variance for Barrie, Mississaga, Wasaga)This application cannot be considered Minor when the proposed 2 lots will be HALF of zoning by-law 97/95 MINIMUM standards and 2S% lesser frontage thus creating 2 new non- complying lots in place of one complying lot. 6) Ora-Medonte's Minor Variance Application requirements: 7) The land owned by the applicant including the boundaries of the subject and abutting lands; a) The location, size and type of all current and/or proposed buildings and structures, including septic systems on the subject and abutting lands; h) Where possible, the applicant should provide "before and after" sketches and elevation drawings of proposed building to assist staff, Committee and neighbouring landowners in understanding the intent of the application. 8) If the minor variance requested relates to construction of a building, the proposed location of the building must be clearly identified on the subject property by staking the outer perimeter of its proposed location. 9) The owner/applicant must post the provided sign in a location that is clearly visible from the road and approachable to be read by the public. (schedule E) The planning act Ontario Regulation 200/96 subsection 1, 3 (2) Posting a notice, clearly visible and legible from a public highway or other place to which the public has access .... (Sched H) No stakes placed on the subject property. Before and after sketches were not provided in spite of the fact the developer retained the services of a planning consultant. Notice was posted 23 ft from the edge of the public road and is not legible from the edge of the road. 7) Lake Simcoe Protection Plan The health of Lake Simcoe must be considered when allowing development around the lake. This proposal, 300 metres from water's edge, will create added phosphorous load with an additional septic system and easily 50% more hard surface coverage thus reducing natural percolation into the ground and causing excessive run-off. Homes in this part of Shanty Bay on Line 2 experience basement flooding from excessive run-off which funnels down toward the lake.

A4.2.5 Shanty Bay Shanty Bay is a settlement area that functions primarily as a residential community. As a result of concerns about the long range impacts of additional development on private septic systems in the community, new development in Shanty Bay will be restricted to those lands that have already been approved for development in the previous Township of Oro Official Plan. New development in Shanty Bay will be serviced by an expansion to the existing municipal communal water system and private septic systems, with the exception that one communal sewage treatment system may be considered for municipal assumption on lands within the east half of Lots 27 and 28, Concession III (Oro). No more than one communal sewage treatment system will be permitted in Shanty Bay as a result of concerns about the cost- effectiveness of operating more than one system in a settlement area. Amendments to this Official Plan that have the effect of designating land for additional residential development in Shanty Bay will not be considered unless: it can be shown that there is a need for additional development in the Township and in this area; and, • the feasibility of developing a communal sewage treatment system servicing the entire settlement area has been investigated to the satisfaction of Council and the appropriate agencies. A4.2.6 Moonstone and Oro Station Moonstone and Oro Station are two settlement areas where only limited growth on municipal water and private septic systems will occur. Both of these communities are rural service centres and are serviced by a municipal water system that are capable of being expanded.

However, where an alternate time period has been established for specific areas of the Province as a result of a provincial planning exercise or a provincial plan, that time frame may be used for municipalities within the area. Within settlement areas, sufficient land shall be made available through intensification and redevelopment and, if necessary, designated growth areas. Nothing in policy 1. 1.2 limits the planning for infrastructure and public service facilities beyond a 20 -year time horizon. 1.1.3 Settlement Areas Settlement areas are urban areas and rural settlement areas, and include cities, towns, villages and hamlets. Ontario's settlement areas vary significantly in terms of size, density, population, economic activity, diversity and intensity of land uses, service levels, and types of infrastructure available. The vitality of settlement areas is critical to the long-term economic prosperity of our communities. Development pressures and land use change will vary across Ontario. It is in the interest of all communities to use land and resources wisely, to promote efficient development patterns, protect resources, promote green spaces, ensure effective use of infrastructure and public service facilities and minimize unnecessary public expenditures. 1.1.3.1 Settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and development, and their vitality and regeneration shall be promoted. 1.1.3.2 Land use patterns within settlement areas shall be based on: a) densities and a mix of land uses which: 1. efficiently use land and resources; 2. are appropriate for, and efficiently use, the infrastructure and public service facilities which are planned or available, and avoid the need for their unjustified and/or uneconomical expansion; 3. minimize negative impacts to air quality and climate change, and promote energy efficiency; 4. support active transportation; 5. are transit -supportive, where transit is planned, exists or may be developed; and 6. are freight -supportive; and b) a range of uses and opportunities for intensification and redevelopment in accordance with the criteria in policy 1.1.3.3, where this can be accommodated.

A minor variance or permission to construct is necessary if you wish to construct, renovate, or alter a building in a way that does not meet the requirements of the City's Zoning By-law. A minor variance is also necessary if you wish to expand or change a use that is considered "legal non -conforming". COMMITTEE OFADJUSTMENT Application for Minor Variance PURPOSE: A minor variance would be required to permit either a specific or any future additions to a building that does not comply with a zone provision or conform to a permitted use in the zoning by-law. A minor variance should be applied for only if all of the following conditions, among other things, apply to the proposal: 1. There is a practical difficulty that makes carrying out the strict letter of the by-law unreasonable or impossible; 2. The circumstances which create the practical difficulties are peculiar to the property only and not common to the area; 3. By complying with the by-law, the applicant can make no reasonable use of the property; 4. The necessity for the variance is not one of convenience or monetary gain, which compliance with the by-law is possible and reasonable; 5. The Applicant has not himself/herself created the circumstances that prevent him/her from complying with the strict terms of the by-law; 6. The application has sufficient merits of its own not to create a precedent for similar requests from others. 1. What is a Minor Variance? Municipalities in the Province of Ontario establish standards to achieve orderly and safe development in their communities. These standards are set out in zoning by-laws. A zoning by-law governs the types of use permitted on a property and lists minimum development requirements. The minor variance application process is a method to seek relief through a Committee of Adjustment when hardship or circumstances do not allow You to meet the standards listed in the by-law. Minor variances C t1_+ZeU 5 60 If your proposed change doesn't conform exactly to the zoning bylaw, but follows its general intent, you can apply for a minor variance. For example, you might want to locate something on your property but you are unable to meet the minimum setback requirements because of the shape of your lot. Your municipality may have a bylaw that sets out local criteria to further clarify what constitutes a minor variance in your community. To obtain a minor variance, you will have to apply to your local committee of adjustment appointed by council to deal with minor problems in meeting bylaw standards. Your application should explain how your proposed variance is minor in nature and why it is needed. The committee of adjustment will hold a hearing and decide on your application. Anyone who disagrees with the decision has 20 days to appeal to the LPAT or, if one is established by the municipality, a local appeal body. The appeal should be filed with the secretary -treasurer of the committee who will tell you who has the authority to hear such appeals in your area. You should set out the reasons supporting the o4ft,,*r2Ndcgq0e fee required by the LPAT/local appeal body. 6.f) 6:50 p.m. kgport No. DS2019-16, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Plann...

This protects and reassures residents living in the area that their properties are protected by law to any change not existing in the present. This lot size is Fully one half of the minimum required from zoning bylaw 97-95 The frontage is 25% less than required the minimum required by zoning by-law 97-95 This represents a lot size on which two buildings are proposed to be built which is incomparable to the dwellings and lots currently on the street The density and lot coverage which will amount to 50% of the lot being built on, including driveway and septic weeping tile tile bed will create storm water and phosphorous run off within the Lake Simcoe protection plan area and will be 300 metres from the shore The severed lot will require a new drilled well in an area where there are many existing wells which may affect water amount and quality of existing wells. Shanty Bay in the lower village is a unique community. There is variety. In lot size and age and style of houses once this variance is granted there will likely be a massive house built on one property and who knows what he will do with the existing Victorian home Once this variance is granted he can do whatever he wants to the property As stated earlier it was my impression that by-laws were put in place for the protection of the people and needed permission from the surrounding dwellings for change This proposed bylaw should be rejected as stated above. It can help to undermine the character of the lower village of Shanty Bay.

What is the purpose of this by-law? What was it intended to protect? If this particular lot severance is one that is actually allowable, in spite of the by- law, then is there any severance that would not be allowed? These are questions I have been pondering. Consider the value of this particular area. Looking at the township as a whole, looking at all areas available for development, which of those would we be aiming to protect with this by-law? This is a unique and quaint little village area, located below the Ridge Road, in a watershed area so close to the lake, with an already substantial density impacting water supply and water run off, I would think that this is precisely the area that the by-law would be in place for the purpose of protecting. And one more question - Is this then setting precedence to allow even more development of this area and similar valuable areas in our township?

File #: 4346-020-010-02600 Gonneau D13-56241 8 Maplecrest Court Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only 1. That Report No. DS2019-025 be received and adopted. 2. That Minor Variance Application 2019-A-07 by Robert Hannah & Tina Gonneau, specifically for permission to permit an accessory apartment dwelling unit with a maximum floor area of 75.4 square metres (812.0 square feet), on lands municipally known as 8 Maplecrest Court, Township of Oro-Medonte, be deferred until such time as the Environmental Services Department provides confirmation that the municipal communal septic tile field has been replaced and provides confirmation of capacity to support the proposed apartment unit. 3. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Secretary Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject property is located on the east side of Maplecrest Court within the Horseshoe Valley Development Node. The lands have a lot area of approximately 0. 13 hectares (0.34 acres) and support an existing single detached dwelling. A location map and aerial map are attached as Schedules 1 and 2 to this report. Surrounding lands uses consist of single detached dwellings. The applicants are proposing to construct an attached garage to the existing dwelling with a second storey apartment dwelling unit with a floor area of 75.4 square metres (812.0 square feet) and will have an entrance to the apartment unit through the proposed attached garage. In order to accommodate the proposed apartment, the applicants have requested the following variance from Zoning By-law 97-95: Development Services Report No. DS2019-025 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 5 Page 277 of 457 6.g) 7:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-25, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... Section 5.4 (c) — Maximum permitted floor area of apartment dwelling unit: Required: Proposed: Maximum floor area of 70.0 square metres Floor area of 75.4 square metres (753.5 square feet) (812.0 square feet) The applicant's site plan is included as Schedule 3, elevation drawings are included as Schedule 4 and a floor plan is included as Schedule 5. Analysis: Provincial Policies The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides a policy basis to guide land use planning in the Province. 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. Section 1.4.3 of the PPS directs municipalities to permit all forms of housing to provide an appropriate range and mix of housing types and densities — including affordable housing. Further, municipalities should permit and facilitate all forms of residential intensification and redevelopment, including second units. The PPS recognizes second units as a form of residential development that is conducive to the development of healthy, livable, and safe communities. In rural municipalities such as Oro-Medonte, secondary units within homes can provide homeowners with an opportunity to earn additional income to help meet the costs of home ownership, and they provide more housing options for extended families or elderly parents or for a live-in caregiver, or provide more affordable housing options to the general population. Development Services Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement. Places to Grow, the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017, is the Provincial government's initiative to plan for growth and development in a way that supports economic prosperity, protects the environment and helps communities achieve a high quality of life. Specifically Section 2.2.6 Housing, which identifies a diverse range and mix of housing options and densities, including second units and affordable housing to meet projected needs of current and future residents. Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed construction of an apartment within the proposed attached garage to the existing dwelling conforms to the Growth Plan and the apartment will be compatible with the surrounding local land uses. County of Simcoe Official Plan Section 4.3 of the County of Simcoe Official Plan encourages local municipalities to permit, wherever possible, individual lot intensification such as secondary or accessory suites in Development Services Report No. DS2019-025 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 5 Page 278 of 457 6.g) 7:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-25, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... residential buildings subject to meeting building, health, and safety regulations. Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed construction of an apartment within the proposed attached garage to the existing dwelling conforms to the County of Simcoe Official Plan. Does the variance conform to the -general intent of the Official Plan? The subject lands are within the Rural Settlement Area of Horseshoe Valley and are designated Low Density Residential according to Schedule D — Horseshoe Valley Land Use, which forms part of the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan (refer to Schedule 6). Section A4.1 directs new residential development to Settlement Areas and Section A4.2.2 states that Horseshoe Valley will evolve in the future to provide a greater range of services to the travelling public and local residents and that all new development should be serviced by communal sewer and water systems. Approximately half of the properties on Maplecrest Court and Beechwood Road, including the applicant's property, are connected to the municipal communal septic tile field. Planning Staff have been advised by Environmental Services Staff that this communal tile field is at capacity and is currently going through an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) for the replacement of the the field that services this area. It is anticipated that the Township will receive this approval from the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks within the next month and proceed with the construction to be completed in May. In Planning Staff's opinion, it is premature to be considering the minor variance application for the proposed accessory apartment until such time as the replacement tile field is completed and is operational. Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law? The subject property is zoned Residential One Exception 63 (R1 *63) in the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended (refer to Schedule 7). Accessory apartment dwelling units are permitted uses within the R1 Zone. The proposed increase in floor area would conform to the general intent of the Township's Zoning By-law, as the apartment will remain smaller and subordinate to the main dwelling unit. Sufficient on-site parking would be available within the existing garage and driveway to accommodate the Zoning By-law's requirements for a minimum of two parking spaces for the main dwelling unit and one parking space of the accessory apartment. The second storey accessory apartment is proposed to be accessed by way of a stairwell through the proposed attached garage. The proposed attached garage will not have access to the main dwelling. This arrangement would provide the residents of the dwelling units the ability to access their units separately. Based on the above, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the requested variance meet the general intent of the Zoning By-law. Development Services Report No. DS2019-025 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 5 Page 279 of 457 6.g) 7:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-25, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... Is the variance aogroariate for the desirable development of the lot? The proposed variance currently would not be considered appropriate for the desirable development of the lot on the basis that the existing communal septic system that services this subdivision is currently at capacity and cannot support the proposed apartment unit at this time. Is the variance minor? As the proposed variance is not considered to conform to the general intent of the Township's Official Plan and is not desirable for the appropriate development of the lot, the variance is not considered to be minor at this time. Financial I Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal (LPAT) 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, 2017 • County of Simcoe Official Plan • Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan • Township of Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law No. 97-95, as amended Corporate Strategic Goals: In 2016, Council adopted the Township's Strategic Plan. The following Goals of the Plan are relevant to this application: Balanced Growth: The application is aligned with the objectives of the Balanced Growth strategic goal by protecting our natural environment, as the lands subject to this application are outside of the lands regulated by the Conservation Authority. 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. As of the preparation of this report, the following comments have been received: Building Division: applicant is to be made aware of their connection to the communal tile bed and that there is currently no approval for septic verification on Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-025 Page 4 of 5 Page 280 of 457 6.g) 7:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-25, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... these properties. Applicant should be contacting Environmental Services for further clarification. • Operations Division: No objections. • Development Engineering: No objections. An Engineered Lot Grading Plan shall be required at the time of Building Permit application. • Environmental Services: existing municipal communal tile field that services this area is at capacity and is currently going through an Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) for the replacement of the tile field. No further municipal connections and/or increases to flows directed to these systems will be considered until ECA is approved. • Simcoe County District School Board: no objection. Attachments: Schedule 1: Location Map Schedule 2: Aerial Map Schedule 3: Applicant's Site Plan Schedule 4: Applicant's Elevation Drawings Schedule 5: Applicant's Floor Plan Schedule 6: Official Plan - Land Use Schedule 7: Existing Zoning Conclusion: Planning Staff recommends that Minor Variance Application 2019-A-07 be deferred as the Minor Variance application currently does not meet the four (4) tests of the Minor Variance as prescribed for in the Planning Act and further, until such time as the Environmental Services Department provides confirmation that the municipal communal septic tile field has been replaced and provides confirmation of capacity to support the proposed apartment unit.

Many (but not all) residences connected to these systems are equipped with a septic tank (i.e. holding tank), which provides the first level of sewage treatment. The effluent from the private septic tank is then released to the municipal collection system and processed by a communal tile field, operated and maintained by the Municipality. At this time, all seven (7) systems are currently under Review by Ministry of Environment, Conservation & Parks through the Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA) Process. As such, no further municipal connections and/or increases to flows directed to these systems will be consider until ECA is approved.

Issues with some of these apartments are noise, vandalism and traffic/parking issues. We object to any variations of maximum floor area established in the Zoning By-laws. We ask the Township to take into consideration two issues when issuing permits for this and other apartments in our area. Water/Wastewater Issues We are in the Zone 1 Horseshoe Valley Water System managed by Skyline WWTP. The Horseshoe-Craighurst Corridor Water, Wastewater and Transportation Master Plan states that this system is at capacity and that additional storage is needed. (p.7) It also states that additional treatment capacity and additional sewers are needed to provide wastewater servicing for the community. (p.8) Preferred solutions and servicing alternatives are in the planning stages only. Our communal septic system was originally designed for a maximum amount of single family dwellings and has been well past capacity for several years. There is a constant foul odour by the catchment tanks at Beechwood and Maplecrest although we see the system being pumped constantly in the summer. The addition of four apartments in the last five years is a tremendous pressure on a system already past capacity. We are very concerned about an accelerated breakdown of the existing system. Page 297 of 457 6.g) 7:00 p.m. Report No. DS2019-25, Andy Karaiskakis, Senior Planner re... Have there been any discussions between the Township and Skyline WWTP regarding adding additional consumers to the already overloaded communal system and what impact and/or worst case scenario could occur? What is the Township's back up or emergency plan if the system becomes overloaded? Traffic/Parking There is a recurring issue with nuisance traffic and street parking. Maplecrest Court is a narrow, curvy, hilly road with steep inclines at various parts of the road. There are no sidewalks and no streetlights. Some of these inclines are very slippery in the winter and/or during rain. Cars constantly parked on the side of the road, especially across from driveways, make navigating on foot and by car on Maplecrest Court quite precarious at times. If property owners don't have enough parking for their own cars, and their visitors' cars, where will their tenants and their respective visitors park?

And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject lands are located on the south side of Old Barrie Road (County Road 11 and on the east side of Line 1 North. A Location Map and an Aerial Photo are included as Schedules 1 and 2 to this report. Surrounding land uses predominantly consist of agricultural uses and include scattered rural non-farm dwellings. The lands to be severed currently support a single detached dwelling that was constructed in 2017 and the lands to be retained are used for agricultural purposes. The applicant is proposing to sever a lot containing the dwelling on the basis that the dwelling is surplus to the applicant's consolidated farm operation. The details of the proposed severance are as follows: Development Services Report No. DS2019-029 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 10 Page 313 of 457 6.h) 7:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-29, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Ser...

Supporting information submitted with this application consists of a Planning Justification Report prepared by Innovative Planning Solutions and dated February 1, 2019. LPoiiicies, Legislation and Analysis. 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 pattems. Section 1.1.4 identifies rural areas as being "...important to the economic success of the Province and our quality of life. Rural areas are a system of lands that may include rural settlement areas, rural lands, prime agricultural areas, natural heritage features and areas, and other resource areas. Rural areas and urban areas are interdependent in terms of markets, resources and amenities. It is important to leverage rural assets and amenities and protect the environment as a foundation for a sustainable economy." The subject lands are located in a Prime Agricultural Area and Section 2.3.4.1 states: "Lot creation in prime agricultural areas is discouraged and may only be permitted for: a. agricultural uses, provided that the lots are of a size appropriate for the type of agricultural use(s) common in the area and are sufficiently large to maintain flexibility for future changes in the type or size of agricultural operations; b. agriculture -related uses, provided that any new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the use and appropriate sewage and water services; c. a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation, provided that: 1. the new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the use and appropriate sewage and water services; and 2. the planning authority ensures that new residential dwellings are prohibited on any remnant parcel of farmland created by the severance. The approach used to ensure that no new residential dwellings are permitted on the Development Services Report No. DS2019-029 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 10 Page 314 of 457 6.h) 7:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-29, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Ser... remnant parcel may be recommended by the Province, or based on municipal approaches which achieve the same objective; and d. infrastructure, where the facility or corridor cannot be accommodated through the use of easements or rights-of-way." Section 2.3.4.1(c), regarding the severance of a residence surplus to a farming operation, is the policy that is most directly relevant to this application. The applicant owns five separate farm properties located in the Townships of Oro- Medonte and Springwater, comprising a total of approximately 158.24 hectares (391 acres). The applicant also rents an additional 32.37 hectares (80 acres) of farm land in the Township of Springwater. None of the applicant's farm properties contain a dwelling, however the applicant resides and runs the farm operation from a dwelling located on his 0.92 hectare (2.28 acre) residential lot located in the Township of Springwater. The applicant is proposing to sever the dwelling on the subject farm parcel on the basis that it is surplus to his dwelling located on the above -noted residential lot. County of Simcoe Planning Staff have stated in their comments dated February 28, 2019 that the application does not meet the intent of the PPS because the applicant's main dwelling is not located on a farm and because the dwelling to be severed was only relatively recently constructed. However, the applicant's Planning Justification Report concludes that the application is consistent with the PPS. Since the County of Simcoe is responsible for the implementation of Provincial interests in planning matters, Township Planning staff are of the opinion that it would be in the interest of the applicant to see the application deferred until the applicant's planner has had an opportunity to respond to the County's policy concerns. A further County consideration that requires attention by the applicant is the County Transportation Department's position that a residential driveway entrance to the proposed lot from Old Barrie Road (County Road 11) will not be permitted and that access to the existing dwelling must be from Line 1 North. Failure to obtain access to the proposed severed lot from Old Barrie Road would have significant impacts on the application. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017 Section 2.2.2 of the Places to Grow Growth Plan contains policies for "Managing Growth", and states in Section 2.2.9.3 that "New ... lots ... for residential development ... 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". The Places to Grow Growth Plan does not specifically address applications for the severance of surplus farm dwellings, and instead defers to policies within the local municipal Official Plan. Therefore, in Planning Staff's opinion, the application does not conflict with the Growth Plan.

Section 3.6.7 of the County's Official Plan states that the severance of a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation is permitted provided that: The new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the residential use and appropriate sewage and water services, and should be an approximate size of 1 hectare; and New residential dwellings are prohibited on any remnant parcel of farmland created by the severance. "Residence surplus to a farming operation" is defined in the County of Simcoe Official Plan and in the PPS and means "an existing farm residence that is rendered surplus as a result of farm consolidation (farm consolidation means the acquisition of additional farm parcels to be operated as one farm operation)." County Planning Staff has provided the Township with comments (letter dated February 28, 2019) advising that the County cannot support the application. County Staff have stated that the applicant does not conform to the County Official Plan and id not consistent with the PPS. Based on the above, Township Planning Staff recommends that the application be deferred to afford the applicant's planner the opportunity to try to address these policy concerns. Township Official Plan The applicant's lands are designated Agricultural, according to the Township's Official Plan. The Official Plan has not yet been updated to include policies specific to the severance of surplus farm dwellings. Therefore it is necessary to rely on PPS and County Official Plan policies when considering such applications. However, the application must still be considered against Section D2.2.1 of the Official Plan which sets out general criteria applicable to all consent applications. These criteria and Planning Staff's comments are listed below: D2.2,1 General Criteria Prior to issuing provisional consent for a new lot for any purpose, the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the lot to be retained and the lot to be severed.- a) evered. a) fronts on and will be directly accessed by a public road that is maintained on a year- round basis; Does not conform: Old Barrie Road and Line 1 North are public roads maintained year- round. However permission for access from Old Barrie Road is not supported by the County. Development Services Report No. DS2019-029 March 6, 2019 Page 4 of 10 Page 316 of 457 6.h) 7:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-29, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Ser... b) does not have direct access to a Provincial Highway or County Road, unless the Province or the County supports the request; Does not conform: Old Barrie Road is a County Road and the County currently does not support an access. C) will not cause a traffic hazard, Does not conform: County of Simcoe restricts accesses from County roads in the operational interest of the County road system and has advised that access to the severed lot from Old Barrie road is not available. d) has adequate size and frontage for the proposed use in accordance with the Comprehensive Zoning By-law and is compatible with adjacent uses; Conforms: Both the severed and retained parcels would comply with the Zoning By- law's lot frontage and area requirements. The dwelling is already existing and its severance would not conflict with existing surrounding agricultural activities. e) can be serviced with an appropriate water supply and means of sewage disposal; Conforms: the existing dwelling is already serviced by a well and private septic system. The Building Division is responsible for matters related to septic systems and has no concerns with the application. f) will not have a negative impact on the drainage patterns in the area; Conforms: The existing dwelling has no known negative drainage impacts. The Development Engineering Division is responsible for matters related to drainage and has no concerns with the application. g) will not restrict the development of the retained lands or other parcels of land, particularly as it relates to the provision of access, if they are designated for development by this Plan; Conforms: the retained lands are not designated for development. h) will not have a negative impact on the features and functions of any ecological feature in the area; Conforms: No natural heritage concerns have been identified by the Township and agencies in their review of this application. i) will not have a negative impact on the quality and quantity of groundwater available for other uses in the area; and, Conforms: No groundwater concerns have been identified by the Township and agencies in their review of this application. Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-029 Page 5 of 10 Page 317 of 457 6.h) 7:10 p.m. Report No. DS2019-29, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Ser... j) will conform to Section 51 (24) of the Planning Act, as amended. Provisional consent may be granted subject to appropriate conditions of approval for the severed and/or retained lot. Does not conform: The County of Simcoe has advised that the application is not consistent with the PPS and does not conform to the County Official Plan. As indicated earlier in this report, Planning Staff is of the opinion that it would be appropriate through a deferral to afford the applicant the opportunity to try to address the access concerns and matters of non -conformity that have been identified. Township of Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law No. 97-95 as amended The lands involved in this application are zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU). The existing dwelling is permitted in the A/RU Zone and the frontages and lot areas of the severed and retained lands would comply with the provisions of the Zoning By-law. In the event of the severance of a surplus farm dwelling, the PPS requires that residential uses be prohibited on the retained farm land, which would be achieved through a Zoning By-law Amendment. Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the Local Planning Appeals Tribunal and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision.

Planning and Transportation & Engineering staff have reviewed the application and afford the following comments: Planning Comments It is County Planning staff's understanding that the applicant is proposing to create one new residential lot with an area of approximately 1.3 hectares (3.24 acres) containing a dwelling surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation. The proposed retained portion of the subject property would be approximately 17.5 hectares (43.25 acres) and will be rezoned to prohibit a future dwelling unit. The subject lands are designated Agricultural per `Schedule 5.1 — Land Use Designations' to the Simcoe County Official Plan (SCOP). The objective of the Agricultural designation is to enable the agricultural industry to function effectively in prime agricultural areas by accommodating uses and facilities which support the agricultural economy (Section 3.6.2). In the Agricultural designation, lot creation is discouraged and may only be permitted under limited circumstances. In accordance with Section 3.6.7 of the County's Official Plan and Section 2.3.4.1(c) of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation is permitted provided that: i. The new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the residential use and appropriate sewage and water services, and should be an approximate size of 1 hectare; and ii. New residential dwellings are prohibited on any remnant parcel of farmland created by the severance. Residence surplus to a farming operation is a defined term in SCOP and PPS and means "an existing farm residence that is rendered surplus as a result of farm consolidation (farm consolidation means the acquisition of additional farm parcels to be operated as one farm operation)."

Prior to the issuance of the building permit, the subject property was vacant and utilized for agricultural purposes. The County has reviewed a copy of a Planning Justification Report (PJR) dated February 1, 2019 prepared by Innovative Planning Solutions. The PJR includes a Table of all farm parcels held by the farm operation. The intent of the policy is to allow farmers who own another dwelling on another farm parcel within Simcoe County to sever dwellings that have been acquired as a result of farm consolidation and is surplus to the needs of the farm operation. County and Provincial policies speak to the utilization of existing dwellings and does not intend for a severance to occur after the local Building Department issues a building permit. The proposal contemplates a new lot for a newly constructed dwelling that may be surplus, but is not surplus due to to farm consolidation, and therefore does not meet the intent of the policies. Transportation & Engineering Comments The County of Simcoe's Official Plan and the County's Entrance By-law No. 5544 do not support the creation of new residential lots outside of designated Settlement Area boundaries if access depends on use of a County Road. Per Section 4.8.32 of the County of Simcoe's Official Plan, "new entrances shall not be permitted to individual residential lots created on County Roads following June 30, 1996, except in urban settlement areas designated in Official Plans and in accordance with the County Entrance By-law regulating access to County Roads." The County of Simcoe's Entrance By-law 5544 states "new entrances shall not be permitted to individual residential lots created on County Roads following June 30, 1996, except in urban settlement areas designated in Official Plans" (Section 2.5.2). The property at 1533 Line 1 North is not located within a settlement area boundary as identified in either the County of Simcoe's or the Township of Oro-Medonte's Official Plan. Section 4.8.33 of the County of Simcoe's Official Plan requires that "the existence of multiple entrances to a parcel of land does not imply that additional lots can be created". The County of Simcoe's Entrance By-law 5544 states: "where a subdivision or individual lot fronts on both a County Road and a Local Road, the entrance will be from the Local Road, where feasible" (Section 2.5.3.). In email correspondence between the County, Mr. McGill and the NVCA on June 7, 2017, it was noted that the existing field entrance (an entrance opening on to a County Road from an agricultural field) off of the County Road could not be re-classified as a residential entrance and the entrance to the new home site would be required to be off of the Local Road.

No access to Old Barrie Road (County Road 11) will be granted from a severed lot. Summary Based on the information provided, County Planning staff are of the opinion that the existing recently constructed dwelling does not meet the definition of a residence surplus to a farming operation and therefore does not conform with Section 3.6.7 of the County's Official Plan and Section 2.3.4.1 of the Provincial Policy Statement. In addition, Section 3.3.4 of the County's Official Plan states "lots may be created only where they have access to and frontage on a public highway and where an access permit to that highway can be obtained". Based on the comments provided by County Transportation & Engineering staff referencing previous correspondence and SCOP Sections 4.8.32 and 4.8.33, an access permit on to County Road 11 will not be issued. Therefore, a severance is not supportable as it does not conform with Sections 3.3.4 of the County Official Plan and would not be in compliance with Section 2.5.3 of the County of Simcoe's Entrance By-law 5544.

File #: D13-56265 For Information Only 1. That Report No. DS2019-018 be received and adopted. 2. That Minor Variance Application 2019-A-08 by Doug McCuaig, specifically to permit construction of a single detached dwelling with a reduced setback from the limits of the Environmental Protection Zone of 3.0 metres (9.8 feet) and a reduced setback from the top of bank of the slope of 8.0 metres (26.2 feet) on lands described as Concession 3 Part Lot 20 Registered Plan 51 R24978 Parts 1 & 2, be deferred to provide the applicant time to address the concerns relating to the impact of the proposed single detached dwelling on the adjacent key hydrological features in accordance to the policies set out in the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017). 3. And, that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: The subject property is located on the west side of Line 3 North, north of Highway 11 and is legally described as Concession 3 Part Lot 20 Registered Plan 51 R24978 Parts 1 & 2. The property will be assigned a municipal address upon issuance of their Zoning Certificate and Entrance Permit. A Location Map is included as Schedule 1 to this report. The subject property is currently vacant and has a lot area of approximately 0.83 hectares (2.06 acres). The area where the proposed dwelling would be located is currently farmed by the neighbouring farmer and there is a watercourse that runs Development Services Report No. DS2019-018 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 11 Page 339 of 457 6.i) 7:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-18, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Minor... through the middle of the property, as illustrated on the aerial imagery attached as Schedule 2 to this report. The applicant is proposing to build a 185.8 square metres (2,000 square feet) single detached dwelling within the 30 metre setback to the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone and within the 23 metre setback from the top of bank of the adjacent slope and is requesting the following relief from By-law No. 97-95: 1) Section 5.27 — Setbacks from Limits of Environmental Protection Zone Required: 30.0 metres (98.4 feet) 2) Section 5.31 — Setback from SI Required: 23.0 metres (75.5 feet) 3.0 metres 9.8 feet es t8. 0 o osed: metres 6.2 feet) The applicant's site plan is included as Schedule 3 to this report. Analysis: Provincial Policies Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 7�1 The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2017) provides a long-term plan to manage growth and protect the natural environment. Section 2.2.9 Rural Areas is applicable to this application. This section has been reviewed and Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed single detached dwelling is consistent with the Rural Areas policies in the Growth Plan. According to the Province of Ontario's Agricultural System Mapping for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, the entire property has been identified as a `Prime Agricultural Area', and as such, Section 4.2.6, Agricultural System, is also applicable to this application. Section 4.2.6.3 states: "Where agricultural uses and non-agricultural uses interface outside of settlement areas, land use compatibility will be achieved by avoiding or where avoidance is not possible, minimizing and mitigating adverse impacts on the Agricultural System. Where mitigation is required, measures should be incorporated as part of the non-agricultural uses, as appropriate, within the area being developed." (p.47 of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2017). In this case, the applicant has chosen to locate his dwelling in the clearing, which was previously farmed, in order to mitigate any adverse impacts on the environmental features. Planning Staff is satisfied that the proposed dwelling location is the only suitable location on the lot due to the slope down to the watercourse. Development Services Report No. DS2019-018 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 11 Page 340 of 457 6.i) 7:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-18, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Minor... According to the Province's mapping of key natural heritage features, there are no natural heritage features on or adjacent to the subject lands. However, based on the aerial imagery and site visit, there is a watercourse that runs through the property; therefore, Section 4.2.4 Lands Adjacent to Key Hydrological Features and Key Natural Heritage Features also applies to this application. Specifically, Section 4.2.4.1 states: "Outside settlement areas, a proposal for new development or site alteration within 120 metres of a key natural heritage feature within the Natural Heritage System or a key hydrologic feature will require a natural heritage evaluation or hydrologic evaluation that identifies a vegetation protection zone, which: a) is of sufficient width to protect the key natural heritage feature or key hydrologic feature and its functions from the impacts of the proposed change; b) is established to achieve and be maintained as natural self-sustaining vegetation; and c) for key hydrologic features, fish habitat, and significant woodlands, is no less than 30 metres measured from the outside boundary of the key natural heritage feature or key hydrologic feature." (p. 44 of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2017). In accordance with Section 4.2.4.1, a natural heritage evaluation or hydrological evaluation will be required to assess the impact of the proposed dwelling on the adjacent key hydrological feature. On this basis, Planning Staff recommend that the application be deferred to allow time for the applicant to address concerns related to the impact of the proposed single detached dwelling on the adjacent key hydrological feature as prescribed in Section 4.2.4 of the Growth Plan. The subject lands are regulated by the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA). The NVCA has been circulated the subject application. At the time of writing of this report, comments have yet to be received by Township staff. Committee members should have regard to any NVCA comments that the Township may receive with respect to the applicant's proposal. Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. Specifically, Section 1.1.4 — Rural Areas, Section 2.1 — Natural Heritage and Section 2.3 — Agriculture are applicable to this application. The Rural Areas policies have been reviewed and Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the Rural Areas policies of the Provincial Policy Statement. Section 2.1, Natural Heritage, seeks to protect natural features for the long term. As discussed above in the Growth Plan policy analysis, the proposed dwelling is located adjacent to a key hydrological feature; therefore, a natural heritage evaluation is required to ensure that the proposed dwelling will not adversely impact the natural heritage feature. Section 2.3, Agriculture, seeks to protect prime agricultural areas for the long-term. Planning Staff is satisfied that the proposed dwelling conforms to the Agriculture policies of the PPS as the existing portion of the property that is currently being farmed by the neighbouring farmer is not large enough to Development Services Report No. DS2019-018 March 6, 2019 Page 3 of 11 Page 341 of 457 6.i) 7:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-18, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Minor... be a viable farm operation and the proposed dwelling is located in a suitable location due to the existing vegetation and slope down to the watercourse. County Official Plan The property is designated Agricultural in Simcoe County's Official Plan. The intent of the Agricultural designation is to protect prime agricultural lands while recognizing the inter -relationship with natural heritage features and areas. In Planning Staff's opinion, the proposed development is consistent with the County's Official Plan as the small portion of the lot that is currently farmed by the adjacent property owner is not large enough to be sustainable as a farm operation by the applicant and the dwelling is proposed to be located in the existing clearing in order to mitigate any adverse impacts on the key hydrological feature. Does the variance conform to the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The subject lands are designated Agricultural in the Township's Official Plan. The intent of the Agricultural Designation is to: maintain and preserve the agricultural resource base of the Township; protect land suitable for agricultural production from development and land uses unrelated to agriculture; promote the agricultural industry and associated activities and enhance their capacity to contribute to the economy of the Township; and, preserve and promote the agricultural character of the Township and the maintenance of the open countryside. Permitted uses in the Agricultural Designation include single detached dwellings. Although a portion of the lot is currently being farmed by the neighbouring farmer, this small area on the applicant's property is not large enough to be a viable farming operation. Planning Staff is satisfied that due to the slope down to the watercourse, the cleared field is that most suitable location for a dwelling on that lot. Based on the above, Planning Staff is satisfied that the proposed variance conforms to the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Does the variance conform to the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? According to the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, the subject property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU), Rural Residential Two (RUR2) and Environmental Protection (EP) as illustrated on Schedule 4 of this report. The EP Zone serves as a buffer around a watercourse that runs through the property. Section 5.27 of the Zoning By-law 97-95 requires a 30.0 metre (98.4 feet) setback for all buildings and structures from the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone boundary. The Zoning By-law limits the types of uses that are permitted in the Environmental Protection Zone in order to ensure that environmentally sensitive features are not negatively impacted by development and so that development does not put people and property at risk of natural hazards such as flooding or erosion. The applicant is proposing to build a 185.8 square metres (2,000 square feet) single detached dwelling and is seeking relief from the Zoning By-law to permit a reduced setback of 3.0 metres (9.8 feet) from the Environmental Protection Zone boundary. Although the proposed dwelling is located within the required 30 metres setback from the EP Zone boundary, it still maintains the required 30 metre Development Services Report No. DS2019-018 March 6, 2019 Page 4 of 11 Page 342 of 457 6.i) 7:20 p.m. Report No. DS2019-18, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Minor... setback from the watercourse, as set out in Section 5.32 of the Township's Zoning By- law. To the north of the proposed dwelling, the property slopes down towards the watercourse. As per Section 5.31 of the Township's Zoning By-law, no buildings or structures shall be located within 23 metres of the top of bank or embankment that exceeds 33%. The applicant is seeking relief from the Zoning By-law to permit a reduced setback of 8 metres (26.2 feet) from the top of bank. Planning Staff rely on the technical knowledge and expertise of conservation authority staff to assess the protection of water resources and minimizing or preventing the impact of natural hazards such as flooding, erosion and unstable slopes. The Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority has been circulated the subject application. As of the preparation of this report, Planning Staff have not received comments from the NVCA. Committee members should have regard to any NVCA comments that may be received. An NVCA permit will be required prior to the applicant submitting a Building Permit application. Based on the fact that we have not received an Environmental Impact Study and we have yet to receive comments from the NVCA, Planning Staff are not in a position to state whether the proposed variances conform to the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot? Upon site visit, Planning Staff noted that the single detached dwelling is proposed to be located in an area that is cleared and elevated above a valley that slopes down towards the watercourse. Due to the topography of the lot, Planning Staff believe that this is the most appropriate location for a dwelling on the lot. Nevertheless, there are Conservation Authority regulatory mechanisms in place to ensure that the proposed development is designed and constructed in a manner that is appropriate on the lands. For matters related to natural heritage features and natural hazards, Township Staff rely on technical input from NVCA Staff. Given the comments mentioned in the preceding sections of this report with regards to conformity to the Growth Plan, Planning staff are not in a position at this time to comment on the desirable development of the lot. Is the variance minor? As mentioned above, additional information is required to be submitted by the applicant to address the impact of the proposed single detached dwelling on the adjacent key hydrological feature as prescribed in the Growth Plan. Therefore, Planning Staff are not in a position to address whether the application is minor in nature.

The Development Services Committee grant provisional consent to Application 2018-13-34 to convey a parcel possessing a frontage of approximately 206.0 metres (675.8 feet) and an area of approximately 21.8 hectares (53.8 acres) being an application to permit a boundary adjustment, subject to the following conditions: a) That the severed lands be merged in title with the abutting property to the south, and that the provisions of Sections 50(3) and 50(5) of the Planning Act apply to any subsequent conveyance of, or other transaction involving, the identical subject parcels of land. Therefore, once the subject parcel of land have been conveyed to the owner of the abutting parcel, the subject parcels and the said abutting parcel shall merge in title and become one parcel of land.

And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services Committee's decision under the Secretary -Treasurer's signature. Background: Development Services Committee considered Consent Application 2018-13-34 at the February 6, 2019 meeting, wherein the applicant proposed a technical severance to re- create two parcels which inadvertently merged on title due to common ownership. Committee received Staff Report DS2019-011 and deferred the application at the applicant's request. The applicant has since revised its Consent application and now proposes a boundary adjustment to sever and merge land as follows: Lands to be Severed (1929 Penetanguishene Road) Lands to be Retained (1995 Penetanguishene Road) Frontage/ 206.0 m. (675.8 ft.) 232.0 m. (761.1 ft.) Width Depth 1,058.0 m. (3,471.1 ft.) 1,058.0 m. (3,471.1 ft.) (Approx.) Total Merged Lands (Receiving Lands — 1857 Penetanguishene Road) 276.0 m. (905.5 ft.) 1,058.0 (3,471.1 ft.) Area 21.8 ha (53.8 ac.) 42.6 ha (105.2 ac.) 42.3 ha (104.5 ac.) (Approx.) The Location Map and sketch below identifies the lands that are proposed to be severed (1929 Penetanguishene Road) and added through a boundary adjustment (lot addition) to 1857 Penetanguishene Road (refer to Schedule 3). No new lots are proposed as a result of the boundary adjustment (lot addition). Analysis: Provincial Policies The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of Provincial interest related to land use planning and development. The intent of the PPS is to build strong and healthy communities while at the same time, promoting efficient land use and development patterns. Lot adjustments may be permitted for legal or technical reasons (Section 2.3.4.2) including easements which do not result in the creation of a new lot.

The policies the r wti Pla for the Greater of en ors s oe )J b reviewed and do not affect this application, since the proposed boundary adjustment does not represent "development" as defined by the Growth Plan. Based on the above, the proposed boundary adjustment conforms to applicable Provincial policies. County of Simcoe Official Plan The subject lands are designated "Agricultural" in accordance with the County of Simcoe Official Plan (refer to Schedule 4). Section 3.3.5 of the County's Official Plan contains policies relating to the boundary adjustment and states that "consents for the purposes of legal and technical reasons and consolidation of land holdings may be permitted but shall not be for the purpose of creating new lots." The purpose of this application is to reconfigure the lot lines between two parcels that would merge two (2) agricultural parcels and would not create any new lots. The County has been circulated the subject application and at the time of writing of this report, comments have yet to be received by Township staff and the Committee should have regard to any County comments that may be received. However, Township Planning Staff is of the opinion that the application conforms to the County of Simcoe Official Plan. Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan The lands to be severed and merged are designated "Agricultural" and the lands retained lands are designated "Agricultural" and "Oro Moraine Natural Core/Corridor Area" in accordance with "Schedule A — Land Use" of the Township's Official Plan (refer to Schedule 5). Neither the policies of the Agricultural or Oro Moraine Natural Core/Corridor Area designations specifically address boundary adjustments, but policy guidance with respect to boundary adjustments is found in Section D2.2.2 of the Oro-Medonte Official Plan. Section D2.2.2 states that "[a] consent may be permitted for the purpose of modifying lot boundaries, provided no new building lot is created [and] the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the boundary adjustment will not affect the viability of the use of the properties affected as intended by this Plan". The lands to be severed and merged with the parcel to the south are currently under cultivation and therefore the proposed boundary adjustment would not take any agricultural land out of production. in addition, as noted above, the intent of the boundary adjustment is to convey the lands to the adjacent property that do not contain any natural heritage features. Planning Staff is of the opinion that this application, if approved, will not negatively affecting the functionality or viability of the retained parcel. On the basis of the preceding, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the application conforms to the Township's Official Plan.

Township's Zbhinq �Y-law 97-9�5, as amen ea The subject lands are zoned "Agricultural/Rural (A/RU)" in the Township's Zoning By- law 97-95, as amended (refer to Schedule 6). Table 134-13 of the Township's Zoning By- law requires a minimum frontage of 45 metres for a lot in the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone. Table 134A also requires a minimum of 2.0 hectares for agricultural uses. The applicant is proposing lot sizes of 42.6 ha (105.2 ac.) (lands to be retained 1995 Penetanguishene Road) and 42.3 ha (104.5 ac.) (lands to be severed and merged with 1857 Penetanguishene Road). The severed and retained parcels would have frontages and lot areas that meet the requirements of the Zoning By-law and are well suited for their respective agricultural uses. Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990. c. P.13 Section 51 (24) of the Planning Act contains criteria that an approval authority must have regard to when considering a plan of subdivision or a consent application (if no subdivision is required).

We do not have planning comments for the revised proposal, however, I just wanted to confirm that our transportation and engineering comments have not changed from our original letter. Transportation and Engineering Comments The Transportation & Engineering Department has reviewed the Application and provides the following comments as a condition of approval: 1. As per the Simcoe County Official Plan (Table 5.4), the required basic right-of-way width for County Road 93 is 36.0 metres. The existing right-of-way width is approximately 15.0 metres. Therefore a road widening to ensure a right-of-way of 18.0 metres from the centreline of County Road 93 will be required from the severed portion of the lands. 2. An Entrance Permit will be required for 1995 Penetanguishene Road. There is an Entrance Permit on file at the County for 1929 Penetanguishene Road, therefore one will not be required. Thanks!

Township of Report Proud Heritage, Exciting Future Report No. DS2019-015 To: Development Services Committee Prepared By: Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner Meeting Date: Subject: Motion # March 6, 2019 Zoning By-law Amendment Application 2019-ZBA-03 Roll #: R.M.S. File #: 4346-010-010-01700 1876571 Ontario Inc. D14-056242 38 Poplar Crescent Recommendation Requires Action For Information Only El It is recommended: 1. That Report DS2019-015 regarding a Zoning By-law Amendment applying to lands located at Concession 10, North Part Lot 25 (Oro), known as 38 Poplar Crescent, Township of Oro-Medonte, be received and adopted; 2. That Zoning By-law Amendment Application 2019-ZBA-03, that would rezone the subject lands from the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone to the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone and Agricultural/Rural Exception 295 (A/RU*295) Zone, be approved; 3. That the Clerk bring forward the appropriate By-law for Council's consideration. 4. And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Director, Development Services signature. Background: Property Description The subject land is a 22.66 hectare (55.99 acres) parcel of land that is located on the north side of Poplar Crescent, east of Line 9 South. A location map is attached as Schedule 1 to this report. The surrounding properties are predominantly used for residential purposes. Development Proposal The purpose and effect of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment is to satisfy a condition of consent for application 2018-B-08 to rezone the lands from the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone to the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone and Agricultural/Rural Exception 295 (A/RU*295) Zone, which will protect the existing Development Services Report No. DS2019-015 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 10 Page 393 of 457 8.a) Report No. DS2019-015, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner re: Zo... Natural Heritage features that are located on the property. The Agricultural/Rural Exception 295 (A/RU*295) Zone will exempt the residential portion on the lot from a 30 metre setback requirement from the Environemntal Protection (EP) Zone on the property. Consent application 2018-B-08 was a boundary adjustment which severed approximately 22.28 hectares from 38 Poplar Crescent and added those lands to 691 Line 9 South. (refer to Schedule 2 -site plan) Analysis: Planning Staff has reviewed the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment application in context to relevant planning policies and legislation contained in the Township of Oro- Medonte Official Plan, County of Simcoe Official Plan, Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017, and the Provincial Policy Statement 2014, as detailed below. 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. In rural areas, the PPS permits limited residential development and other rural land uses. Section 1.1.5 Rural Lands in Municipalities contains policies for rural lands in municipalities on where to direct development. Policy 1.1.5.4 states, "development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained by rural service levels should be promoted." The surrounding land uses consist of large nonagricultural parcels of land and rural residential land uses. The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment does not change the character of the area, and it will help protect the Natural Heritage features on the property. Section 2.1 Natural Heritage has also been reviewed and the proposed zoning by-law amendment will protect the natural features and areas for the long term. Planning Staff is of the opinion that the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment Application is considered to be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, 2014, as the proposed zoning will protect the wetlands and woodlands on the property. Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe 2017 The application has been reviewed with reference to the Place to Grow policies that have been in place since July 1, 2017. In Policy 2.2.9 - Rural Areas there are provisions that allow development to occur outside of settlement areas in site-specific locations with approved designations. Section 2.2.9.3 c) of these policies state that development outside of settlement areas may be permitted on rural lands for: other rural land uses that are not appropriate in settlement areas provided they: Development Services Report No. DS2019-015 March 6, 2019 Page 2 of 10 Page 394 of 457 8.a) Report No. DS2019-015, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner re: Zo... I. are compatible with the rural landscape and surrounding local land uses; II. will be sustained by rural service levels; and Ill. will not adversely affect the protection of agricultural uses and other resource- based uses such as mineral aggregate operations. Planning staff have reviewed the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Natural Heritage System mapping applicable to the subject property and the surrounding area and confirm the mapping identifies a woodland and an unevaluated wetland on the property. The Province's website advises users that this mapping application does not identify if a woodland is "significant" (e.g. for municipal planning purposes). These Woodlands are identified based on the "wooded area" data held by Land Information Ontario and the Province's website states that municipalities must assess and determine if such woodlands are significant. At the municipal level the Township of Ora-Medonte Official Plan does not identify significant woodlands on the subject property or on adjacent lands. However, the County of Simcoe Official Plan includes the subject lands within the `Greenlands' designation which corresponds with a large wooded area on the subject lands and surrounding the lands. Since this wooded area appears to have the potential to be a significant woodland, Planning Staff have evaluated this application against Growth Plan Section 4.2.3.1 which pertains to development within key natural features. Section 4.2.3.1(e) allows expansions to a uses and conversions of legally existing uses, which bring the use more into conformity with the Growth Plan. In this case, no new development is being proposed, the key natural heritage features on the property are being protected and in the end would bring the uses of these lands more into conformity with the Growth Plan. Therefore, on this basis, the proposed zoning by-law amendment is considered to conform to the Places to Grow policies of the Province. Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority_ The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority (LSRCA) regulates portions of the subject lands. The LSRCA has been circulated the subject application as well as for the consent application. The comments received for the consent application were as follows: They are recommending that the owner apply and successfully amend the Zoning By-law for the 55.06 acres proposed to be merged with 691 Line 9 South to "Environmental Protection" and/or that a restrictive covenant be registered on title under the Conservation Land Act to recognize and protect in perpetuity the environmental features contained on the land, to the satisfaction of the LSRCA. Based on the comments previously received from the LSRCA, the proposed application would be consistent with the Natural Heritage and Natural Hazard Polices of the Provincial Policy Statement and conform to the requirements of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan. Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-015 Page 3 of 10 Page 395 of 457 8.a) Report No. DS2019-015, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner re: Zo... County of Simcoe Official Plan The subject lands are designated 'Greenlands' in the County of Simcoe's Official Plan. Section 3.8 of the County's Official Plan contains detailed policies for the protection and enhancement of natural features and functions. The proposed zoning amendment will improve the quality of these woodland and wetlands, as well as protect the natural character of the area by prohibiting developed on these lands. The County has been circulated the subject application and at the time of writing of this report, comments have yet to be received by Township staff. Committee members should have regard to any County comments. Therefore, based on the policies above it is the opinion of Planning Staff that zoning application 2419-ZBA-03 generally conforms to the County of Simcoe's Official Plan. Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan The subject property is designated `Rural' in the Township's Official Plan. Section C2.1 sets out the objectives in the 'Rural' designation. Those objectives are to preserve and promote the rural character of the Township and the maintenance of the open countryside, and to prevent the intrusion of land uses which are incompatible with the rural character and/or resource activities of the area. Planning Staff is of the opinion that this Zoning By-law Amendment conforms to the Township's Official Plan on the basis that the property will maintain its existing residential functions while adding a protective zone which will protect the character of the area and prohibit development on the subject lands. Zoning By-law Amendment The lands are currently zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) and Environmental Protection (EP). The lands that are currently zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) will be rezoned to the Environmental Protection (EP) zone other than an area of land that is 0.66 hectares (1.65 acres) that contains the existing dwelling on the property. The lands that contain the dwelling will be rezoned to the Agricultural/Rural Exception 295 (A/RU*295). The Exception 295 will provide relief from the provisions of Section 5.27. Section 5.27 prohibits buildings and structures, with the exemption of boathouses and pumphouses being located within 30 metres of the boundaries of the Environmental Protection (EP) Zone. The zoning by-law amendment if approved will rezone the property that are identified as key natural heritage features. The approved zoning by-law amendment will protect these features in perpetuity. A By-law has been prepared for consideration by the Committee, which is included as Schedule 5 to this report.

Encourage the protection of the Township's natural heritage features while ensuring that uses that rely on these features such as home-based businesses, recreation, and tourism are promoted and strengthened. Staff is of the opinion that if the Zoning By-law Amendment is approved, that the change in zoning will protect the Township's natural features and attributes. Consultations: A notice sign was posted on the property on February 12, 2019 and notice of the application was circulated to applicable agencies, Township Departments and assessed landowners within 120 metres (400 feet) of the subject lands.

Townshfp of Report Proud Heritage, Exciting Future Report No. To: Prepared By: DS2019-027 Development Services Committee Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner _ Meeting Date: Subject: Motion # March 6, 2019 Request for Temporary 2nd Dwelling 228 Drury Mill Rd. — Dwinnell Roll #: R.M.S. File #: 010-002-012 R Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only It is recommended: 1. That Report No. DS2019-027 be received and adopted. 2. That the temporary second home agreement dated May 23, 2018 between the Township of Oro-Medonte and John and Carol Dwinnell be replaced with a new agreement to authorize the temporary residential use of an existing dwelling that currently occupies the property at 228 Drury Mill Road, for a term of 36 -months, in association with the construction of a new dwelling. 3. That By-law 2018-057 be repealed and replaced by a new by-law authorizing the execution of a temporary second home agreement between the Township of Oro-Medonte and John and Carol Dwinnell. 4. And that the applicant be advised of Council's decision under the Director, Development Services signature. LBackground: The subject property is 20.0 hectares (50.0 ac.), and is located on the north side of Drury Mill Road, east of Line 2 North (See Attachment #1). According to the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) records, there is an existing 152.6 square metre (1643.0 square foot) dwelling located on the property, which was constructed in approximately 1895. The applicants applied for a second home agreement with Council on March 23, 2018 During that meeting it was agreed upon by Council to allow the applicants to extend the 12 -month term to 36 -months to allow for the option of the owners mother to move into the second home after the new dwelling is completed. The wording on the original agreement (see Attachment #3) stipulated that the older home (second home) is to be removed on completion of the new dwelling, as evidenced Development Service Department Report No. DS2019-027 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 6 Page 403 of 457 8.b) Report No. DS2019-027, Todd Weatherell, Intermediate Planner re: Re... by a provisional occupancy certificate. After the provisional occupancy certificate is granted the existing dwelling is to be demolished within one-month to the satisfaction of the Township's Chief Building Official. This provision eliminates the 36 -month term as agreed upon by Council because the applicants have to obtain a provisional occupancy certificate prior to moving into the new dwelling. The applicants received a building permit for the new dwelling on January 28, 2019. The 36 -month term agree upon by Council would expire on January 28, 2022. A new agreement (see attachment #2) has been prepared stipulating the 36 -month term as well as the date of demolition of the old dwelling has to occur no later than one-month after the January 28, 2022 date. [Analysis: The Township has historically allowed owners to temporarily reside in their existing dwelling or a trailer during construction of the new dwelling and allow for a building permit to be issued for the new dwelling. This practice has been followed contrary to the Township's Zoning By-law, which only allows one dwelling per property; however is a reasonable compromise to assist owners in these cases. A financial deposit and agreement (see Attachment #2) stipulating the terms of this approval and will be required to be executed with the owner, which ensures compliance after the new dwelling is completed. Council has established a precedent of granting one-year temporary permissions on other properties in the Township. Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: I A $20,000 security deposit is required prior to issuance of a building permit for the new dwelling to ensure removal of the existing dwelling once the new dwelling is constructed. The applicant has posted securities for $ 20,000.00 to ensure the removal of the original dwelling. no'cles/Legislation: Planning Act The Building Code Act Corporate Strategic Goals: Enhanced Customer Service — Provision of service to permit landowners to reside in their existing dwelling while their new dwelling is being constructed.

The format of the report has been modified and now includes a summary of some of the GIS projects being completed by the GIS Technician, in addition to including the statistical information for zoning certificates, consent and minor variance applications, and pre -consultation applications. The attached summary reviews the status of Applications for: Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment, Plan of Subdivision, and Site Plan. In addition, the report provides the following: (1) a summary of the number of applications received and processed for: pre - consultation, minor variance, and consent in 2018 and 2019 to date; and (2) the number of zoning certificates and zoning certificate revisions received and processed in 2018 and 2019 to date. Consistently over the past several years there is a high number of minor variance applications received by Township staff; it is anticipated that with the completion of an Development Services Report No. 2019-028 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 3 Page 409 of 457 8.c) Report No. DS2019-028, David Yauk, GIS Technician, re: Planning Div... updated Official Plan and Zoning By-law in 2019, the number of applications received will reduce.

The initial Open House on the Township's Official Plan Review process was held on June 20, 2018. The dedicated website for the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Review process is live and continues to receive public comments. The Township's Consultant is current preparing a draft Vision Statement and Directions Report that will be posted this fall for public consultant/input. The GIS projects identified in the report reflect only some of the projects being completed by the GIS Technician. GIS services for the Township are a more recent addition to the services provided within the Corporation and the types of projects being completed for various Township Departments continues to expand as both the Technician and other Township staff gain a better understanding of the resource available. Many Township Departments are now utilizing the services of the GIS Technician to assist with their projects and it is expected the number of internal projects will continue to expand. In addition, the GIS Technician ensures that the Township's Planning documents and mapping schedules for both the Official Plan and Zoning By- law are maintained and updated with amendments that are approved by the Township. As additional projects are completed, the amount of data/information that is available to the Township, such as hydrant locations, Township sign locations, streetlight locations continues to expand.

Iwnsh' of Report Proud Report No. To: DS2019-031 Development Services Committee Meeting Date: Subject: March 6, 2019 Consent Application 2018-B-11 by Hang Gao & Xu Roll #: Han, 1667 Ridge Road East — 010-011-22700 Local Planning Appeal Tribunal LPATj Hearing Representation [Recommendation(s): It is recommended: Heritage: Exciting Future Prepared By: Derek Witlib, Manager Planning Services Motion # R.M.S. File #: D10-55346 Requires Action For Information Only 1. That Report No. DS2019-031 be received and adopted. 2. That staff proceed with Option 1 as outlined in this report in preparation for the LPAT hearing anticipated to be scheduled for April 15, 2019. Background: In May 2018 the Township received Consent Application 2018-B-11 which proposed a "technical severance" to re-create an original parcel which merged on title when the parcel was transferred from the Township to the applicants in 2010 in exchange for the applicant's transfer to the Township of lands which comprise part of the playground associated with the Hawkestone Community Hall. The lands to be severed are proposed to have a frontage of 20.117 metres (66 feet) along Allen Street, a depth of 50.585 metres (166 feet) and a lot area of 0.1 hectare (0.25 acre). The lands are currently vacant of buildings/structures and are proposed for single detached residential purposes. The lands to be retained support an existing dwelling and are proposed to maintain an existing frontage of approximately 200 metres (656 feet) along Ridge Road East, have a depth of approximately 370 metres (1214 feet) and a lot area of approximately 20 hectares (49.4 acres). The application was the subject of a Public Hearing on July 19, 2018, at which time the Development Services Committee deferred making a decision in order to afford the applicant the opportunity to consult with his Solicitor. The application was considered by the Development Services Committee again on November 7, 2018. Development Services Report No. DS2019-031 March 6, 2019 Page 1 of 7 Page 450 of 457 8.d) Report No. DS2019-031, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Services re:... The Committee received two Planning staff reports DS2018-072 and DS2018-116 that provided a planning analysis of the application. As a result of the various inputs from staff, agencies, residents, and the applicant, the Development Services Committee on November 7, 2018 adopted a motion to deny Consent Application 2018-B-11 on the basis that the application did not conform to the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan. Notice of Decision was provided in accordance with the Planning Act and as a result, an appeal of the Committee's decision was received on November 19, 2018. Planning Staff forwarded the appeal to the LPAT and the LPAT has provided correspondence to the Township advising that a one day hearing on the merits of the appeal will be scheduled (see Schedule 3 to this report). The LPAT has contacted the Township to reserve April 15, 2019 as a hearing date and Staff expect to receive a formal hearing notice in the near future. In order to appropriately prepare for the LPAT hearing, direction from Council is required and is the purpose of this report. Analysis: Given that staff determined in their report that the application did not conform with the Official Plan and the decision of the Committee was to deny the application, a recommendation from Council is now required to determine the level of support to be provided by the Township at the LPAT hearing. The Committee has the following options: (1) Provide representation (Planning staff and Township solicitor) to support the Committee's decision to deny the Consent application; (2) Not provide representation to support the Committee's decision to deny the Consent application Option #1 would require the Township solicitor and Planning staff to uphold the decision of the Committee that denied the Consent application that was also the recommendation of the staff reports (DS2018-072 and DS2018-116). Planning Staff would work with the Township solicitor in order to prepare the necessary case to be presented to the Tribunal member in accordance with the Committee's decision and the Staff Reports. Option 1 provides the greatest strength to the Township's position to deny the Consent application. The cost for this option is discussed further below. In Option #2, the Township would not provide any representation at the LPAT hearing to defend the Committee's decision. With this option, the applicant/appellant will present their case at the hearing on the merits of the appeal and there would be no evidence presented at the hearing from the Township regarding the decision by the Committee to deny the application. In the absence of Township legal and planning representation at the hearing, Option 2 may reduce the likelihood of the LPAT reaching a decision that is consistent with the Township's position. Development Services March 6, 2019 Report No. DS2019-031 Page 2 of 7 Page 451 of 457 8.d) Report No. DS2019-031, Derek Witlib, Manager, Planning Services re:... In either option, the applicant/appellant is required to provide their own representation, at their cost, to support their position at the LPAT hearing. Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management: Option #1 would include financial costs associated with the Township solicitor's time to prepare and then attend the one day LPAT hearing and also the indirect costs for Township Planning staff to prepare for and attend the 1 day hearing. Option #2 would not include financial costs to the Township other than the staff time to attend and observe at the hearing with no evidence being presented by the Township. Poli ies/Legislation: Planning Act Township's Official Plan and Zoning By-law 97-95 Corporate Strategic Goals: Balanced Growth: Ensure land use planning policies manage change and promote economic activity that does not negatively impact the Township's natural heritage features and attributes. Consultations: NIA LAttachments: Schedule 1: Location Map Schedule 2: Applicant's Consent Sketch Schedule 3: LPAT Correspondence Conclusion: L 1 The decision of the Committee was to deny the Consent application, consistent with the staff recommendation, however this decision was appealed to the LPAT. On this basis, direction from Council is required regarding representation to be provided by the Township at the scheduled hearing. It is Staff's recommendation that Council should proceed with Option 1 as outlined in this report allowing adequate time for staff and the Township solicitor to prepare for and attend the hearing. Option 1 ensures the decision of the Committee is represented at the hearing.
