From: Richard Boyd <rboyd@rogers.com> Sent: Tuesday, June 2, 2020 4:31 PM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: Rezoning 2 Merrington Avenue I was very surprised that an application was submitted to change the rezoning for 2 Merrington Avenue as I purchased 4 Merrington Avenue just over two years ago. One of the selling points was the environmental protected lands on our right for privacy. Since living here we have witnessed numerous species of wildlife taking advantage of this safe habitant for them. We have seen deer, lynx, turtles, a cub, heard coyotes, numerous types of birds using this space over our short time here. We are against this property being rezoned.

From: Justin Malenfant <justinmalenfant2010@hotmail.ca> Sent: Wednesday, June 3, 2020 10:06 AM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: Input on 202 Lakeshore rd W Hello, My name is Justin Malenfant and I live at 208 Lakeshore rd w Oro-Medonte l0l 2e0. For many during covid-19 as I prefer to express myself in person. Below is a list of reasons of why this lot should not be severed. For further questions please call 705 500 7833. 1.Too much traffic on this street especially next to 206 Lakeshore rd w because of a medical facility that has at least 10 cars parked at any time including on the road 24 hours a day. 2.The By-law is in place for a reason. This area is known for double wide lots 98.4 feet not 69.6 feet and this would further hurt my property value. 3.Private beach across the street is very nice and would not want the traffic at this beach to be increased because the entire city is severing their lots. handle another house with out being redone. 5.Potential risk that this new property could turn into yet another medical facility increasing traffic and disturbance of the area living beside a 24 hour operation. 6.If this application is approved I will be considering filling the same application so sever my lot and sell both lots and move out of this city. 7.Noise Disturbance from construction. It has already been nothing but noise sense i moved to my house last year and would really like some peace and quiet.

Background: The subject lands have a lot area of 78.1 hectares (193.02 acres), according to Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) records, and contain a single detached dwelling, two detached accessory buildings, one agricultural building (not used for livestock), six grain bins/elevators and a machine shop/office. The majority of the land is under agricultural cultivation, there are two watercourses, a wetland and a woodland along Line 2 South. Surrounding land uses predominantly consist of agricultural uses (refer to Schedules 1 and 2).

The lands to be severed currently support a single detached dwelling and two detached accessory buildings. The owner wishes to continue keeping three goats on the lands to be severed. The goats do not meet the threshold for triggering Minimum Distance Separation (MDS), but would require that the severed lands be treated as a hobby farm rather than a residen-law, since the keeping of such small livestock is not permitted on a residential lot in the A/RU Zone. The lands to be retained will support an agricultural building (not used for livestock), six grain bins/elevators and a machine shop/office. The applicants are proposing to sever a lot containing the dwelling on the basis that the dwelling is surplus to the applicants consolidated farm operation. The details of the proposed severance are as follows: Lands to be Severed: Lands to be Retained: Frontage: Approximately 56.4 m. (185.0 ft.) Approx. 320.0 m. (1,049.9 ft.) on Line 2 S.

Use: Continued Residential/hobby farm Continued Agricultural The applicants consent sketch is included as Schedule 3 to this report and the proposed severance sketch is on Schedule 4. Analysis: Provincial Policies Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), 2020 The Provincial Policy Statement 2020 (PPS) came into effect on May 1, 2020 to replace the 2014 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 subject lands are located in a Prime Agricultural Area and Section 2.3.4.1 states: prime agricultural areas is discouraged and may only be permitted for: 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 remnant parcel may be recommended by the Province, or based on municipal approaches which achieve the same objective7, PPS) Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 3 of 19 Page 193 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... The proposed consent is a severance of a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of a farm consolidation. Between the owner of the subject lands (Hewitt Creek Farms Ltd.) and two of the shareholders of Hewitt Creek Farms, they own five (5) additional farm properties in the Township, see Schedule 5, of which three contain single detached dwellings, specifically 274 Line 3 South, 897 Line 3 South and 200 Line 5 North. The applicantsare proposing to sever the dwelling on the subject farm parcel (274 Line 3 South) on the basis that it is surplus to their farming operation. The west end of the property, near Line 2 South, contains a Provincially Significant Wetland and Significant Woodland. As per Section 2.1.8, development and site alteration shall not be permitted on adjacent lands to the natural heritage features and areas unless the ecological function of the adjacent lands has been evaluated and it has been demonstrated that there will be no negative impacts on the natural features or their ecological functions. Adjacent lands is lands contiguous to a specific natural heritage feature or area where it is likely that development or site alteration would have a negative impact on the feature or area. The extent of the adjacent lands may be recommended by the Province or based on municipal approaches which achieve the same objectives features located on the subject lands, Planning Staff are satisfied that the proposed new lotwill not have any adverse impact on the woodland or wetland as it is located more than 600 metres (1,968.5 feet) from the natural heritage features and separated by large farm fields. On the basis of the above policies, the proposed Consent application is considered to be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement 2020, subject to the amendment to the zoning of the retained lands, prohibiting their use for residential purposes. A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019) A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019) provides a long-term plan to manage growth and protect the natural environment. Section 2.2.9 Rural Areas is applicable to this application. units for residential development will be directed to settlement areas, but may be allowed on rural lands in site- specific locations with approved zoning or designation in an official plan that permitted this type p. 28). The Growth Plan does not specifically address applications for the severance of surplus farm dwellings as a result of a farm consolidation. As noted previously in this report, the purpose of the Consent Application is to sever a lot containing a residence surplus to a farm operation as a result of farm consolidation. In this regard, it is noted that while the proposed severance would result in the creation of a new lot, the Provincial Policy Statement requires that measures are taken by the Township to "\[ensure\] that new residential dwellings are prohibited on any vacant remnant parcel of farmland created by the severance." According to Scheds Official Plan, the west end of the subject lands are located within the Environmental Protection One designation and the Environmental Protection Two overlay designation due to the presence of a Provincially Significant Wetland and Significant Woodland. As a result, Section 4.2.4 Lands Adjacent to Key Hydrologic Features and Key Natural Heritage Features is now also applicable to this application. Specifically, Section 4.2.4.1 of the Growth Plan states: Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 4 of 19 Page 194 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... proposal for new development or site alteration within 120 metres of a key natural heritage feature within the Natural Heritage System or a key hydrological feature will require a natural heritage evaluation or hydrological evaluation that identifies a vegetation protection zone, which: a. Is of sufficient width to protect the key natural heritage feature or key hydrological 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 (p. 43-44 of A Place to Grow: Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2019). Since the proposed new lot will be located more than 600.0 metres (1,968.5 feet) metresfrom the natural heritage features, Planning Staff are satisfied that an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) is not required and that the proposed development conforms to the natural heritage policies in the Growth Plan. Therefore, on this basis, the proposed severance for the creation of a new lot by way of severance for a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation is considered to conform to the Growth Plan policies of the Province. County of Simcoe Official Plan The subject lands are designated Agricultural and Greenlands in the County of Simcoe Official Plan (refer to Schedule 6). The severed lands are located within the Agricultural designation. specifically, Section 3.3.5 states that and consolidation of land holdings may be permitted but shall not be for the purpose of creating new lots except as otherwise permitted in this Plan, Provincial policies and legislation (p. 18). creation may be permitted in the Agricultural designation for a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation, 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. To ensure that no new residential dwellings are permitted on the remnant parcel, municipalities may use approaches such as zoning to prohibit the development of a dwelling unit(s), and/or the municipality may enter into agreements imposed as a condition to the approval of lot creation and the agreements may be A as an existing farm residence that is rendered surplus as a result of farm consolidation (farm Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 5 of 19 Page 195 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... consolidation means the acquisition of additional farm parcels to be operated as one farm operation).(p.134). Consent application 2020-B-14 is proposing a severed lot size of 0.49 ha. (1.2 ac.), which complies with 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 that may be received. On this basis, Planning Staff are satisfied that Consent Application 2020-B-14 conforms to the County of Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan The subject lands are designated Agricultural, Environmental Protection One and Environmental Protection Two in accordance with Official Plan (refer to Schedule 7). The severed lands are located within the Agricultural designation. The Environmental Protection One designation corresponds to the boundary of the Provincially Significant Wetland, which is illustrated in Schedule B Natural Features of designation follows the boundary of the Significant Woodland, see Schedule 8, located on the west end of the property along Line 2 South. These key natural heritage features are located more than 600.0 metres (1,968.5 feet) from the proposed severed lands. 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 Sta 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; Conforms: The severed lands will have frontage on Line 3 South and the retained lands will have frontages on Line 2 South and Line 3 South, both of which are Township roads 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 lands do not have access to a Provincial Highway or County Road. Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 6 of 19 Page 196 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... c) will not cause a traffic hazard; Conforms: have not identified any traffic safety concerns, but have advised that a 3.0 metre road widening across both the severed and retained lands adjacent to Line 2 South and Line 3 South will be required to be transferred by the Owner to 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; Comments: The lands to be retained comply with the Zoning By- requirements and the lands to be severed comply with the minimum lot frontage requirement. The severed parcel with a lot size of 0.49 ha. (1.2 ac.) does minimum lot area of 2.0 hectares (4.9 acres) for hobby farms. The hobby farm classification is severed lands. Should the Committee approve the Consent application, a condition is recommended to be included that will require the applicants to successfully apply to the Township to amend the Zoning By-law to prohibit new residential uses on the retained lands and for a reduced lot size for the severed parcel. A non-complying interior side yard setback for the existing barn and the increased floor area of the existing oversized detached accessory building also need to be addressed through the Zoning By-law Amendment. The dwelling and livestock building are already existing and their 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 on the severed lands is currently being serviced by a private well and private septic system. The Building Division is responsible for matters related to septic systems. The Building Division 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 Building Division comments that may be received. f) will not have a negative impact on the drainage patterns in the area; Conforms: The Development Engineering Division, which is responsible for matters related to drainage, 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 designated Agricultural, Environmental Protection One and Environmental Protection Two overlay and are thus not designated for development beyond the level of their current use, which is for agricultural purposes. Access to the retained lands will not be restricted as a result of the severance. h) will not have a negative impact on the features and functions of any ecological feature in the area; Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 7 of 19 Page 197 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... Conforms: No natural heritage concerns have been identified by the Township and applicable 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; 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: The Consent application has been reviewed in context to Section 51(24) of the outlined above, it is the opinion of Planning Staff that the application conforms to the policies of result of the severance of a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation, the proposal is not anticipated to negatively affect the viability of the farm operation taking place on the retained lands. Township of Oro-Medonte Zoning By-law 97-95 The subject property is currently zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) and Environmental Protection (EP) in Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended (refer to Schedule 9). The minimum lot size required for agricultural uses and hobby farms in the A/RU Zone is 2.0 hectares (4.9 acres). The minimum lot frontage required for properties zoned A/RU is 45 metres (148 feet). The retained parcel will comply with the Zoning By-law's lot frontage and area requirements and the severed lands comply with the minimum lot frontage requirement. The applicants have requested a severed lot size of 0.49 hectares (1.2 acres) which satisfies the County of Simcoe's requirement for new lot creation; Zoning By-law minimum lot size for a hobby farm of 2.0 hectares (4.9 acres). The applicants had originally indicated in their application that the severed lands would be used for residential purposes. Upon site visit, Planning Staff noticed that there were three goats living in one of the accessory buildings on the severed lands. Upon further discussions with the owner, they intend on keeping the goats after the severance is complete. According to the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (MDS) facility or anaerobic digester on it, an MDS I setback is not required for that livestock facility or anaerobic digester in accordance with Implementation Gui the proposed new lot contains the existing dwelling and the existing livestock building containing the 3 goats, MDS I is not required. There is no existing or proposed livestock on the retained lands. As a condition of consent approval, the applicants must apply for and obtain an amendment to the Zoning By-law for the severed and retained lands. The severed lands are to be rezoned to an Agricultural/Rural Exception (A/RU*) Zone to recognize the increased floor area for a Development Services Committee June 3, 2020 Report No. DS2020-049 Page 8 of 19 Page 198 of 470 5.h) 6:50 p.m. DS2020-49, Catherine McLean, Planner re: Consent Applicat... detached accessory building and the reduced lot size for a hobby farm. An agricultural building, which would have been permittedon the original lot, is not permitted on lots under 2.0 hectares (4.94 acres) in size. Since the lands to be severed will be approximately 0.49 hectares (1.2 acres) an agricultural building is not permitted and the building is now classified as an accessory building. The maximum permitted size for an accessory building in the A/RU Zone is 100 square metres (1,076.4 square feet), yet, the existing structure is 124.9 square metres (1,344.0 square feet). The retained farm lands are to be rezoned to an Agricultural/Rural Exception (A/RU*) Zone to recognize the reduced interior side yard setback for the existing agricultural building and prohibit residential uses, in keeping with Provincial Policy Statement and County Official Plan policies for surplus farm dwelling severances. As a result of the severance, the existing agricultural building will now be located 2.7 metres (9.0 feet) from the interior side yard setback as opposed to the required 15.0 metres (49.2 feet). Verification of this reduced setback by an Ontario Land Surveyor (OLS) has been added as a condition of consent.

While the new grainier has brought increased noise / dust / truck traffic/ light to my back yard the complex has been a improvement to rural lifestyle from the viewpoint of local farmers. Unlike several new landowners in the township who have ignored the concerns of long time local residents and zoning regulations to create massive non agricultural facilities for no other reason then there own profits and wealth.

Is there even capacity for more consumers? - The proposed location for Slopeside 2 and 3 will result in heavier vehicle traffic through the middle of the already crowded resort, creating a potential for accidents with pedestrians. Parking is already very tight. Slopeside 1 has no indoor parking at all. -The two RESORTS, Carriage Hills and Carriage Ridge, on Highland Drive, are now being Administered by BDO Dunwoody under Court Supervision.

June 1, 2020 Re: Rezoning Application #2019-ZBA-23 I am writing on behalf of the Planning and Development Subcommittee of the Horseshoe Valley Property Owners Association regarding the rezoning application #2019-ZBA-23. We are in support of this application, policies and encourage Council to approve this request with the assurance that the following occurs: 1.Sufficient capacity exists for water and wastewater. 2.All the appropriate traffic studies are completed both on County Road 22 and within the resort property. 3.The proponents build into the plan, adequate parking facilities for the increase in visitors and traffic. 4.An appropriate building phasing plan is established so as to not overload the area in new condos. Horseshoe Resort plays a significant role in our community. They are the largest employer in Ward 1 and bring economic benefits to the township. This change in zoning will allow them to build additional accommodation that will increase visitors to the resort and bring more tourism to our Township. We also feel the rezoning of these lands to V1 designation will allow for more commercial accommodation and short-term rentals in the areas they belong, that being in a resort facility. This is another instance of a development of 121 units that should be incorporated into a comprehensive secondary plan with community input to ensure responsible development throughout the Horseshoe Valley Settlement area.

Dear Mayor Hughes, Council and Staff: We are writing today and wish to address with you the proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment for further Development at Horseshoe Resort. We have concernthat owners may not have sufficiently been made aware of the proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment process and their right to participate in the considerations since neither our Condominium Corporation nor our Agent have been provided appropriate notification on behalf of all of our stakeholders. It is reasonably foreseeable that there will be considerable disruption to our property given the close proximity of the planned Development to our building. Construction as close to our property as indicated in the plans will interfere with our quiet enjoyment of the property with ongoing noise, congestion and a construction mess that will most certainly impact us financially for ongoing maintenance costs and enjoyment of the property. Itis reasonable to suggest that the proposed development will be a detriment to the considerable investments already made by our stakeholders, investments made on a Development that remains to have a number of matters unfinished and unresolved to this point in time. A further concern is the density in a relatively small area of an already congested footprint. Can the existing Private Well Water distribution system sustain the supply of water to an additional 121 residential units and commercial spaces without impact to our property? Are there any guarantees or interrupt the utility supply to our residential units? Page 240 of 470 5.i) 7:00 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... our property? A construction project of the magnitude proposed would take years for completion. Are our stakeholders to be, in essence, oppressed in such a manner and forced to withstand such significant disadvantage and potential financial hardship as a result of the proposed development? We would ask that this matter before Council be deferred until such time as there can be a fair opportunity for our stakeholders to partake freely in discussion, until there is an opportunity to be fully informed of the proposed matter and have an opportunity for their voices to be heard. We thank you for your considerations in this matter.

Good afternoon; Thank you for the mail notice of the consent application- notice of public hearing related to owner UCCI Consolidated Companies Inc. In light of the proposed severed lands, please find below some comments and further questions. A. Has there been an Environmental Impact Study completed? This forest area is the home of wild turkey, rabbits, fox, deer, and a variety of birds. As such, it will be important to assess the environmental impact on the displacement of the wildlife living in this area. B. Are the permits for the "ten (10) new residential uses on the subject lands" to be solely used for single dwelling homes that are owned? There is a concern if there are plans for multiple rental units being built in this community. C. What will the "Retained Lot" be used for and why is there "Dedicated lands for parking"? Again, this community is for residential and cottage use, with concerns if there are plans for private-revenue generating activities. D. Will there be roads built to join Windfields Dr. E and W, and as well Greenwood Forest Rd. and Windfields Dr. W? Again, has there been an environmental impact study done to determine the impact of the displacement of the wildlife living in these areas where roads will be built? E. What are the plans for water and sewer services for the proposed lots? Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments and to inquire further as to the proposed development plans.

Hello Todd; Thank you for responding so quickly. Based on the responses we are concerned and oppose the development, as it is currently presented. There needs to be further studies done to determine the following: a) the significant impact on the displacement of other diverse wildlife that live in the community; b) a specific plan on how rare wildlife species such as the Eastern Wood-pewee and the Red-headed woodpecker will continue to be protected; and c) rather than suggesting, a well-developed plan concerning how the Butternut trees in the community will be protected. If there is no set time frame on when the park will be developed, then there is no need to rush the proposed development, and specifically the development of a parking lot. There also needs to be information provided, even though it is not a planning issue, on the impact of possible tax increases for local residents. This will allow time for all members of the community to become fully informed and have an opportunity to respond in a fair and equitable manner, due to the current restrictions community residents are facing. Again, thank you for responding to our questions, as it provides an opportunity to critically examine the proposal and to make well-informed decisions, which have the potential to impact the residents of the community, the natural wildlife, and the local water/ lake supply.

According to the people of Oro-Medonte, the excellent quality of life is what makes the Township a desirable place to live. This quality of life is created, in large part, by the rural character of the community, the open countryside, farmland, extensive wooded areas, the Oro Moraine, Lake Simcoe, Bass Lake and number of small Settlement areas. Rather than being dominated by man-made structures and landscaped yards, the Township has an open m relatively natural and rural character. These are the qualities that , taken together, contribute to the identity of the community that is of the greatest importance to residents. The open land space consists of a robust forest that contributes to the identity of this community, the daily lives of local residents, flora and fauna. The forest not only provides a beautiful backdrop in the neighbourhood, it is also the home of deer, fox, coyote, wild turkey and a variety of other bird life and plant life. It is because of this rural character and beautiful natural setting that dozens of local residents walk along Greenwood Forest Road as part of their daily routine. The proposed land use would be extremely detrimental to the quality of life in this quiet, rural community. Question #1: What it the intended future purpose of the 'Retained Lot'? Question #2: What there an agreement/understanding in place between the Township and UCCI Consolidated Companies Incorporated? Question #3: What were home owners of 17, 19, and 21 Windfields Drive told regarding the future of the open space in their backyards? This question is important because there is a prevailing opinion that the seller significantly misrepresented their intentions. Forest Road?

Definitely no through road access from Greenwood Forest Rd to Windfields Dr W. This is a safe street where people bicycle and walk dogs. We do not want cars racing through the area where there are children. A better alternative, if you want, is to join lines 4 and 5 by going through Windfield. 2. No dedicated parking lot. This is unnecessary in a residential neighborhood. 3. The original owner, whom we had personally met, Mr Ucci, told us the land on the north side of what is now Greenwood Forest Dr was never to be built on. It is shown on early plans as dedicated parkland or green belt. 4. Request. To delay meeting scheduled on Wednesday June 3 to July to allow information to reach other residents.

We purchased the house from a builder who designed it specifically to take advantage of the beautiful forested area in the Open Space behind the property. We made sure to check the zoning of the lands prior to making an offer. (4) months later, we received notification of this application for rezoning. Based on this application, the currently forested Open Space area behind our house would be converted for use as residential and parking space. The exact design/layout of which was not included with the notification. It would mean that our house which was designed to provide an open concept view of the forest (from both floors) would now overlook a parking lot and another house. There is no question that this would dramatically affect the aesthetics and property value of our house, as well as all other houses on Park View Avenue. We were told that the parking space is meant to be for a park located on Greenwood Forest Road. We fail to understand why a parking lot would be placed in the middle of a forest when it is to be used for a park located on the other side of the street? Would it not make sense to put parking for the park on the same land as the park itself? Is that not how most parks are built? Page 286 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... Supposedly there is also a trail proposed to be running along the rear property lines of the existing houses. This would mean that in addition to our house potentially overlooking a parking lot and a house, there would also be people walking practically across our back yard. The concept of cutting down the forest, let alone replacing it with a parking lot is extremely undesirable. At the very least, a block of untouched forest should be left to separate any new construction, trails, etc. from the existing residences.

From: Kathleen McDowell <kmcdowell51@rogers.com> Sent: May 24, 2020 4:09 PM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: New Zoning Application for Greenwood Forest I am a homeowner on Lakeview Rd, Oro Medonte, part of the neighbourhood impacted by the proposed development of 10 residential homes on Greenwood Forest. I am definitely opposed to the new zoning application as I feel it impacts the neighbourhood in many ways. A few of the many concerns I have are, months and maybe years of construction vehicles, increased traffic as residents access their homes and the public drive to a new park, the need for independent testing as to the impact on wildlife and the water table. Why was I not sent an information package with the plan for the development? Please send one to me. I hope you realize you will be dealing with a steering committee which will address all the concerns of residents. It should be a face to face meeting with the mayor, councillor, head of the planning department and a representative of the Ucci Group. Why would we want to lose the recreation opportunities and solitude of one of the most beautiful parts of Oro Medonte? What you are creating is a population implosion!

Sections A2.1.2 (b), and (f) section A3.1.2 support the concept of environmental protection through the preservation of natural wooded areas. We feel that this development would have negative impact on the environment through habitat destruction and have an impact on the Lake Simcoe watershed.

We live at 18 Parkview Avenue, and we oppose the amendment to the Zoning by- law for the following reasons: 1) We moved to Oro for a country style of living close to the lake and nature. When we bought we were told that the forest adjacent/behind our house would always be open space. The open space not only provides a beautiful backdrop in the neighbourhood, it is also the home of deer, fox, coyote, coywolf, wild turkey and a variety of other bird wildlife and plant life (see list following submission). The proposed land use would be extremely detrimental to the quality of our life in this quiet, rural community. Some people sit and watch the lake, we sit in our backyard and watch the forest. A parking lot or even a walkway would not be tolerable. 2) The 'proposed use' is not in accordance with the Township of Oro Official Plan: THE COMMUNITY VISION The primary purpose of the Official Plan is to provide the basis for protecting the lifestyle and cultural heritage features and to do so in a way that has the greatest positive impact on the quality of life in Oro-Medonte. According to the people of Oro-Medonte, the excellent quality of life is what makes the Township a desirable place to live. This quality of life is created, in large part, by the rural character of the community, the open countryside, farmland, extensive wooded areas, the Oro Moraine, Lake Simcoe, Bass Lake and number of small Settlement areas. Rather than being dominated by man-made structures and landscaped yards, the Township has an open, relatively natural and rural character. These are the qualities that , taken together, contribute to the identity of the community that is of the greatest importance to residents.

CƩƚƒʹ Bruce McCartney <balcaris@icloud.com> {ĻƓƷʹ Thursday, May 28, 2020 3:29 PM ƚʹ Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca>; Michael Higgins <MHiggins@mother-parkers.com> {ǒĬƆĻĭƷʹ UCCI Consolidated Companies Inc Proposed Amendment to the Zoning By-Law of Oro Medonte; Consent Applications 2020-B-04 to 2020-B-12; PUBLIC MEETING JUNE 3,2020 Dear Sirs; This objection is being filed on behalf of Michael Higgins (mhiggins@mother-; 647-244-5893)and Bruce McCartney (balcaris@icloud.com; 416-692-7162). We live at 27 Windfields Drive West and own the land on Lake Simcoe, on the south side of Windfields Drive West, from the Davidson/ Ucci property line on the west to to the Bomza/ Road Right of Way (between Greenwood Forest and Windfields Drive West), on the east; and the land on the north side of Windfields Drive West from west of our property line on the south to a point close to the first house east of the Creek. That means that the boundaries of our properties include the creek that flows into Lake Simcoe and the woods adjacent to the creek that are sometimes used as a pathway from Greenwood Forest to Windfields West. We recently received notice of the UCCI application and saw, earlier this week, for the first time, the documents upon which the application was based. Although we do not feel we have had adequate time to prepare a proper response, we do object. We would much prefer that this proposal be fully discussed at a public meeting rather than a virtual meeting. When Michael Higgins and I bought our properties from UCCI, we did so on the understanding (by way of title search) that the subject lands were zoned Open Space and that they would remain so zoned. I am sure that the other residents on Windfields West believed the same. It seems unfair that, now that the Windfields West lots have been sold, UCCI has decided to attempt to change the zoning, sever lots and build on this land. I did some research on subdivisions in Ontario. The government site suggests that when an however, an owner intends to divide a piece of land into two or more parcels and to offer one or more for sale, that owner is subdividing property and the provisions of the Planning Act apply. That requires division by Plan of Subdivision. It is our view that UCCI is doing an end run by asking for a zoning change and severance. This request should be made under the Planning Act with a new subdivision plan. We have reviewed the joint submission being made on behalf of local Oro-Medonte residents and have asked Ed Evans to add our names and email addresses to the submission. We hereby adopt the comments in that submission. I will attach a copy of the submission to this email or enclose it in an additional email. We have a number of additional concerns to those mentioned above: Page 295 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... - the creek on our property is a vibrant creek which feeds Lake Simcoe. There is a significant amount of wild life in the area. Further development in the area and particularly opening the road allowance between Greenwood Forest and Windfields West would adversely affect that creek and any runoff into Lake Simcoe. Increased traffic and further winter maintenance will be harmful to the environment. The UCCI applications suggest that the lots will have access to existing public roads when in fact the development of a new public road between Greenwood Forest and Windfields Drive this alone require land division by Plan of Subdivision? -the subject lands are one of a very few parcels that remain natural in the area. We bought the properties on the north side of Windfields West and the properties to the east of the creek to prevent further development in the area and to maintain some healthy green space. It would be a shame to allow UCCI to ruin the subject land which is zoned Open Space. If houses are to be built there, a significant portion of the wood lot will have to be chopped down. - this sort is allowed? The UCCI proposal is indeed a major development that will greatly affect the shoreline. To call it an infill project is rather disingenuous. -Robert Bowles, an Environmental Consultant has had a chance (given the time restraints) to do will attach Mr Bowles preliminary report in this email or immediately following this email -Several of the lots in the UCCI proposal are undersized (ie.5 hectares rather than the .6 hectares required). Obviously UCCI is trying to cram in as many houses as possible. This will increase the number of trees that will be cut; will increase the use of wells drawing on the water that is -the parking lot being granted to the township is inappropriate. Why would such a parking lot be necessary? How does UCCI or the township justify putting such a parking lot in the front of the residents at 27 Greenwood Forest or in the backyard of the residents immediately to the east of of the proposed development? the water flowing into Lake Simcoe from the remaining lot owned by Oro- Medonte? -What is the purpose of the retained lot? Why is it being rezoned if is not intended to be sold and developed? Can we expect UCCI to build another home there in the future? Thank you for your consideration.

Submitted May 29, 2020 Mayor Harry Hughes Deputy Mayor Ralph Hough Councillor Ian Veitch Councillor Tammy DeSousa Councillor Cathy Keane Councillor Shawn Scott Councillor Randy Greenlaw Chief Administrative Officer Robin Dunn Township of Oro-Medonte, 148 Line 7 South, Oro-Medonte, ON. L0L 2E0 Dear Mayor, Deputy Mayor, Councillors and Chief Administrative Officer: RE: UCCI companies request to rezone a portion of land from Open Space (OS) Zone to Rural Residential One Exception (RUR1) Zone to permit Application to sever ten (10) residential lots from Registered Plan 51M-187 This joint submission is made on behalf of the following concerned local Oro-Medonte residents -: - Name (e-mail address) - Name (e-mail address) - Name (e-mail address) - Name (e-mail address) Ώ Etc. The residents of our neighborhood are opposed to the rezoning and development (2020-B-04 to 2020-B- 12) Ucci Consolidated Companies Applications for the following reasons. From a process perspective, we are upset and concerned that the virtual public hearing scheduled for June 3 is proceeding at this time. Area residents (most of whom are elderly and several hard of hearing) have been subject to government stay at home guidelines. They will not be able to properly participate and ask questions on a matter that significantly impacts their quality of life. Many seasonal residents (cottagers) have not been able to go to their cottage at all to physically inspect the proposal. This inability of resident seniors to be able to properly participate in this important planning process with significant adverse impact on their quality of lives and natural environment is a significant human rights issue. Residents must be afforded a reasonable opportunity to make an assessment and an informed decision about whether or not to support the application. Following historic administrative timelines and processes that do not take into account the COVID environment we are currently living in is severely prejudicial to affected residents. Given the serious impact the application will have on the entire neighborhood, the process must ensure that the public has ample opportunity to provide meaningful input and must make modifications and accommodations having regard to COVID in order to do so. There is no immediacy to the Application and there is no reason why the Application needs to go forward in a manner that circumvents proper process and due consideration, certainly in light of the pandemic in which we find ourselves. In addition, we note that due to COVID-19, we have not been afforded the opportunity to examine and evaluate the Application in a manner that would enable residents to come to a fully informed view and make fully informed submissions to Council. In particular, in the normal non-COVID case, the submissions and reports (Planning Justification Report, Functional Servicing Report and Natural Heritage Evaluation) filed by the Applicant would have been available for public review on May 13, 2020 or earlier and the public would have had time and the ability to attend the township office, review all the materials, retain outside experts, consultants and lawyers if deemed necessary and make submissions on an informed basis by the June 3 submission deadline. Given COVID stay at home guidelines, the public did not have access to these reports and could not attend the township offices and therefore are prejudiced in Page 300 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... their ability to make appropriate submissions for the June 3, 2020 hearing. When asked for copies of the reports, officials at the township (assuming following usual non-COVID protocol) initially proposed that the reports would be made available online with the meeting agenda on May 29, 2020. It was not until repeated requests were made that reports were emailed to certain persons who requested them on May 25, 2020. As a result, only certain parties requesting copies of the reports were able to obtain them and the reports were not available for any type of public review until May 25, leaving only a few short days to review, evaluate and retain outside environmental, planning and legal experts to help interested residents understand the impact of the Application and make informed submissions to Council for the Council and township planning staff to consider in making recommendations and determining the outcome of the Application. We also note that at this time there does not seem to be any information as to how the virtual meeting is to take place. Any process that does not enable residents to participate in any public hearing and receive all requisite information on the same basis and at the same time as the applicant is inherently unfair and creates a bias in favor of the applicant. We therefore ask that Council defer making any decision on the Application at the June 3 public meeting until such time as the public has an opportunity to review all the information available and provide input and comments by way of a second public hearing and that Council consider the additional time required by COVID guidelines) to consult with each other and retain outside experts. To state the obvious, just as a public hearing in the normal fashion is not possib not possible and it takes more time to get things done in the COVID environment. We submit that not accommodating a second public forum would disenfranchise the residents in the area and would result in Council making decisions without hearing concerns and suggestions from members of the public who are directly impacted by the Application. From a substantive perspective, while the Concerned Oro-Medonte Residents have not had the opportunity to fully inform themselves for the reasons described above, the following are preliminary issues of concern. Of necessity, this list of concernsis not exhaustive or fully developed given the time and process-related constraints noted above. 1. The subject lands are zoned open space and should be protected based on the policies of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan that the Township of Oro Medonte has re-confirmed its support and compliance with in a letter dated February 18, 2020. (attached).. This proposal for a major development will have significant adverse impact to the ecological integrity and natural heritage features of this high quality forest woodland, adjacent cold water streams, animal, bird, plant, and cold water fish habitat, due to the subject lands being with 120 feet of the Lake Simcoe shoreline. The subject lands from 28% watershed wide today, to 4 a point of protecting it͵. 2. The application will bring traffic into the area as the application includes a new road that will make Greenwood Forest a throughway where it is now a dead end. 3. The subject lands do include Wetland which is frog reproduction habitat, contrary to findings in Natural Heritage evaluation report. These Wetlands within the subject lands will be lost as a result of development if the Application is approved. 4. The location of the proposed road is very close to environmentally sensitive Oro Lea cold creek which runs into Lake Simcoe. Vehicular contaminants, snow clearing, and de-icing materials will runoff into the creek which will significantly adversely impact the ecological integrity of this cold water creek that is critical to healthy cold water fish habitat. Additional consideration should be given to the need for the access road at all, and whether the Greenwood Forest/Winfield connecting road or the East/West Winfield road connection is appropriate. 5. Natural Heritage evaluation report, there is a stream that flows from the proposed parking area north of Greenwood Forest Road to Lake Simcoe. . This stream adds to the coldwater fisheries of Lake Simcoe. Vehicular contaminants, snow clearing, and de- Page 301 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... icing materials will runoff into this continuous surface water directly into Lake Simcoe, causing significant adverse impact to cold water fish habitat and water quality in the lake. 6. The Lake shoreline area adjacent to the subject lands is ideal fish habitat. From 50 meters to Whitefish and Lake Trout Habitats. One of the key objectives of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan is to protect this cold water fish habitat. The run off from the parking lot, road construction and increased traffic adjacent to the cold water creek will damage the cold fish habitat which is one of the most significant natural heritage features of Oro Medonte and key objectives of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan to protect. 7. The development would cause thousands of trees to be cut down which will destroy animal, bird, amphibian and plant habitat. This would begin less than 60 meters from the Lake. The Lake Simcoe Protection Plan protects woodland area with 120 meters from the shoreline. The proposed major development would reduce critical high-quality woodland and wildlife habitat which is a key natural heritage feature that LSPP protects. In summary, we have identified a number of very serious concerns with the Application. We submit that Council defer a decision on this Application at the June 3, 2020 Public Hearing. The public should have the time needed to investigate these concerns more fully and the opportunity to present them and any other matters that may come up in due course and as part of a process that respects the rights of the public and takes into account the exigences of the pandemic.

The people on park view deserve better than to all of a open space is part of what was appealing for the area. The people on ridge road that just built those nice space would stay as designated open space, not fair for them. Lastly I So I would propose some sort of compromise. Build at most 3 houses closer to the end of greenwood able to be built on ever in the future. That way the money scoundrels can make their quick buck and we can still maintain most of what makes our area unique. Thanks Michael van rooyen and Caitlin strength.

To: The Township of Oro Medonte May 28, 2020 From: The Evans family, 27 Greenwood Forest Road, Oro Medonte Subject: UCCI request to sever ten residential lots from lands Registered Plan 51M-187, Block 43 with focus on request for lands dedicated for parking, retained lot, severed lots major development and construction of through road connecting Greenwood Forest Road to Windfields Drive Our family comprises three generations of cottagers over 60 years and for the past 30 years, full time residents of Oro Medonte on Greenwood Forest Road. Our family home is immediately adjacent to the subject lands. We care deeply about the beautiful natural heritage of Oro Medonte and greatly appreciate the quality of life in our community and active stewardship of our shared Lake Simcoe watershed. Our family is very upset by the damage to our quality of life and most importantly the significant permanent damage to the fragile Lake Simcoe ecosystem that the proposed amendment to the zoning by-law and the development plan would cause. There are four key reasons of particular concern to our family, why the development plan would cause significant adverse effect and permanent damage to the integrity of Lake Simcoe ecosystem and 1. The proposed plans include land dedicated for a parking lot. This requested parking lot is immediately adjacent to a culvert and small stream that runs directly into Lake Simcoe. This requested parking lot is located less than 60 meters from Lake Simcoe. This small stream flows into the lake through a natural lakefront woodland and enters the lake into a fish habitat with conditions ideal for spawning. This area of Lake Simcoe is one of the most important habitats for the fragile Lake Trout and Whitefish populations. The planned parking lot runoff would have significant adverse effect on the Lake Simcoe ecosystem and damage Oro Medonte natural heritage and contravene the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan . 2. The proposed plan includes the construction of a through road from Greenwood Forest Road to Windfields Drive. It appears this road would be 60 meters from Lake Simcoe and within 30 meters of Oro Lea Creek. The construction of the through road and ongoing runoff from the road would have significant adverse effect and permanently damage this important South Oro cold creek. This cold creek flows into a Lake Simcoe fish habitat which is ideal spawning grounds, near habitat for fragile Lake Trout and Whitefish. This would contravene the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan and Oro Medonte official plan due to the significant adverse effect on this important cold water stream, a critical part of Lake Simcoe ecological integrity and Oro Medonte natural heritage 3. The proposed plan includes land described as retained lot. This retained lot is an undeveloped woodland which is a wildlife habitat as are all the proposed severed lots. This Woodland wildlife habitat is home to a wide range of animals, birds and plants, Page 313 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... including deer, fox, mink, frogs, red headed woodpecker (a species at risk), pileated woodpecker a wide range of migratory birds, waterfowl, raptors, and a large population of trillium and other wildflowers. The subject and adjacent lands are critical deer and other animal, bird, plant and amphibian breeding and migration routes. 4. It is particularly important that the proposed retained lot and two of the severed lots is directly across Greenwood Road from a large, approximately 1-hectare undeveloped natural woodland on + of fragile natural Lake Simcoe shoreline. This undeveloped Lake Simcoe shoreline woodland is a wonderful rare unique Oro Medonte natural heritage gem: a municipally owned undeveloped natural woodland on the Lake Simcoe shoreline. It a home to all of the animals and birds listed above in addition many more over the years from beaver, eagles, hawks, snowy owls to swallows with a natural shoreline facing Lake Trout and Whitefish fish habitat and an aquatic zone ideal for fish spawning with natural riparian zone . This development will cause adverse effects to the ecological integrity of this wonderful natural area, so it is critical for the community to understand the full details of the purpose and impacts of all aspects of the development plan. It is critical that any plans for the retained lot are detailed and defined. It is critical to protect the adjacent woodland shoreline land directly across from Greenwood Forest road from the development of the retained lot and severed lots. A full detailed plan and full independent Environmental Impact Assessment is required for the subject lands to determine any adverse impacts on the adjacent municipally owned woodland shoreline land. It is critical to ensure that the municipally owned woodland containing small stream and shoreline, and the important wildlife and fish habitat are protected for generations to come. In accordance with the objectives and vision of the Oro Medonte official plan and the Lake Simcoe Protection plan it is critically important to protect the ecological integrity of woodland, shoreline, Lake and Streams, and natural connectivity of wildlife: - No new parking lot within 120 meters of the Lake or adjacent to any streams within high quality woodland - No road construction within 120 meters of the Lake or adjacent to Oro Lea creek - Assurances from the Township of Oro Medonte to plan in accordance with the official plan and Lake Simcoe Protection plan that no adverse impact, alteration, impairment, disruption or harm occurs to the adjacent Municipally owned natural shoreline woodland. As defined in the Lake Simcoe Protection Act it is critical that an independent Environmental Impact Assessment is done to ensure that Lake Simcoe ecosystem and the natural heritage of Oro Medonte is protected The proposed major development plan including parking lot, within 60 meters of the Lake directly beside a culvert and small stream, and through road construction within 60 meters of Page 314 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... the Lake and within 30 meters of the important Oro Lea cold creek, would cause adverse impact and significant permanent damage to the ecological integrity of the fragile Lake and stream eco systems, woodland and wildlife and cold water fish habitats We request that due to the critical importance and certain risks of adverse ecological impacts to the Oro Medonte natural heritage resulting from this application that the review and decision making process for this application not proceed until such time as it safe to hold in person public hearings so that concerned residents, Municipal elected official and planning staff, developer applicant and other concerned Lake Simcoe watershed stakeholders can meet together in person. We have reviewed the joint submission being made on behalf of local Oro-Medonte residents and have added our family name and email address to the submission. We hereby adopt the comments in that submission We appreciate your thoughtful consideration to this matter of critical importance to the Oro Medonte natural heritage and quality of life for our community today and generations to come. We further appreciate your response to our questions: 1. Why is the parking lot requested? 2. Why is the requested parking lot situated less than 60 meters from the Lake beside a culvert adjacent to a small stream flowing directly into the lake? 3. Who are the intended users of the requested parking lot? 4. What is the purpose and plans for the requested Retained lot? 5. What is the purpose of the construction of the thru road from Greenwood Forest Road to Windfields Road? 6. Has an independent Environmental Impact Assessment of the full impact of the major development application including the impact of the requested Zoning By-Law to rezone land from high quality natural Open Space to Rural Residential One Exception. With focus on Lands Dedicated to parking, plans for Retained and severed lots and road construction connecting Green Forest Road to Windfields Road and the impact on the Municipally owned woodland, natural undeveloped shoreline, wildlife habitat, fish habitat including Oro Lea cold creek?

From: Vanessa Lefebvre-Champoux <vanessa_lc@hotmail.com> Sent: Friday, May 29, 2020 3:26 PM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: Greenwood forest and windfield project Good afternoon, My name is Vanessa Graham and I live at 20 Lakeview rd, in oro-medonte. I am writing to you with concerns I have about the construction project of building new houses along greenwood forest , building a commercial parking lot And other expansions. I have a few concerns. First off, I did not receive a letter about this as other residents did, second I am concern about the amount of traffic that will cause in our very quiet neighborhood (which is one of the reasons we had bought this house), the wildlife that will be disturbed in those areas, the conservation of Lake Simcoe as well as there are many creeks that lead to it from those areas. Another concern I have is the accessibility of the meeting to everyone. We live in an area where there are a lot of elderly people who do not have access or the knowledge to know how to use technology to be able to watch the meeting. I think it would be wiser to delay the meeting until we can all attend in person. I appreciate you reading this and taking these concerns seriously as I know they are shared by all our community.

L0L 2E0 Dear Mayor, Deputy Mayor, Councillors and Chief Administrative Officer: RE: UCCI companies request to rezone a portion of land from Open Space (OS) Zone to Rural Residential One Exception (RUR1) Zone to permit Application to sever ten (10) residential lots from Registered Plan 51M-187 This joint submission is made on behalf of the following concerned local Oro-Medonte residents -: -Howard Leake and Pauline Grenier, grenlea@sympatico.ca -Rolane and Clare Lefave, crlefave@gmail.com -Shawn Livingston and Brittany Harvey, brittanyharvey2@gmail.com -Brenda Norwich and Joe Murgel, bnorwich@outlook.com -Brian and Della Emms, envsol@rogers.com -Jessica and Robert Peacock, peacock.mecedo@gmail.com -Coalton McLeanand Anastasia Rogan, arogan22@hotmail.com -Vanessa and Phil Graham, Vanessa_lc@hotmail.com -Alla Sidoruk, allasidoruk@gmail.com -Michael VanRooyen, mike_vanrooyen@hotmail.com -Fairdeh Smith and Reza Ryanfard, Farideh_smith@yahoo.com -Kim Whyte, kwhyte@rogers.com The residents of our neighborhood are opposed to the rezoning and development (2020-B-04 to 2020-B- 12)Ucci Consolidated Companies Applications for the following reasons. From a process perspective, we are upset and concerned that the virtual public hearing scheduledfor June 3 is proceeding at this time. Area residents (most of whom are elderly and several hard of hearing) have been subject to government stay at home guidelines.They will not be able to properly participate and ask questions on a matter that significantly impacts their quality of life. Many seasonal residents (cottagers) have not been able to go to their cottage at all to physically inspect the proposal.This inability of resident seniors to be able to properly participate in this important planning process with significant adverse impact on their quality of lives and natural environment is a significant human rights issue. Residents must be afforded a reasonable opportunity to make an assessment and an informed decision about whether or not to support the application.Following historic administrative timelines and processes that donot take into account the COVID environment we arecurrentlyliving in is severely prejudicial to affected residents. Given the serious impact the application will have on the entire neighborhood, theprocess must ensure that the public has ample opportunity to provide meaningful input and must make modifications and accommodations having regard to COVID in order to do so.There is no immediacy to the Application and there is no reason why the Application needs to go forward in a Page 318 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... manner that circumvents proper process and due consideration, certainly in light of the pandemic in which we find ourselves. In addition, we note that due to COVID-19, we have not been afforded the opportunity to examine and evaluate the Application in a manner that would enable residents to come to a fully informed view and make fully informed submissions to Council. In particular, in the normal non-COVID case, the submissions and reports(Planning Justification Report, Functional Servicing Report and Natural Heritage Evaluation)filed by the Applicant would have been available for public review on May 13, 2020or earlier and the public would have had time and the ability to attend the township office, review all the materials, retain outside experts, consultants and lawyers if deemed necessary and make submissions on an informed basis by the June 3 submission deadline.Given COVIDstay at home guidelines, the public did not have access to thesereports and could not attend the township offices and therefore are prejudiced in their ability to make appropriate submissionsfor the June 3, 2020 hearing.When asked for copies of the reports, officials at thetownship (assuming following usual non-COVID protocol) initially proposed that the reports would be made available online with the meeting agenda on May 29, 2020. It was not until repeated requests were made that reports were emailed to certain persons who requested themon May 25, 2020. As a result, only certain parties requesting copies of the reports were able to obtain themand the reports were not available for any type of public review until May 25,leavingonly a few short days to review, evaluate and retain outside environmental, planning and legal experts to help interested residents understand the impact of the Application and make informed submissions to Council for theCouncil and township planning staff toconsider in making recommendations and determining the outcome of the Application. We also note that at this timethere does not seem to be any information as to how the virtual meeting is to take place. Any process that does not enable residents to participate inany public hearing and receive all requisite information on the same basis and at the same time as the applicant is inherently unfair and creates a bias in favor of the applicant. We therefore ask that Council defer making any decision on the Applicationat the June 3 public meeting until such time asthe public hasan opportunity to review all the information available and provide input and comments by way ofa second public hearing and that Council consider the additional time required by interested COVID guidelines) to consult with each other and retain outside experts. To state the obvious, just as a public hearing in the normal fashion is not possible so too inot possible and it takes more time to get things done in the COVID environment. We submit that not accommodating a second public forum would disenfranchise the residents in the area and would result in Council making decisions without hearing concerns and suggestions from members of the public who are directly impacted by the Application. From a substantive perspective, while the Concerned Oro-Medonte Residents have not had the opportunity to fully inform themselves for the reasons described above, the following are preliminary issues of concern. Of necessity, this listof concernsis notexhaustive or fully developed given the time and process-related constraints noted above. 1.The subject lands are zoned open space and should be protected based on the policies of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan that the Township of Oro Medonte has re-confirmed its support and compliance with in a letter dated February 18, 2020. (attached).. Thisproposal for a major development will have significant adverse impact to the ecological integrity and natural heritage features of this high quality forest woodland, adjacent cold water streams, animal, bird, plant, and cold water fish habitat, due to the subject landsbeing with 120 feet of the Lake Simcoe shoreline. The subject lands from 28% watershed wide today, to 40% in a point of protecting it͵. 2.The application will bring traffic into the area as the application includes a new road that will make Greenwood Forest a throughway where it is now a dead end. Page 319 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... 3.The subjectlands do include Wetland which is frog reproduction habitat, contrary to findings in Natural Heritage evaluation report. TheseWetlandswithin the subject lands will be lost as a result of developmentif the Application is approved. 4.The location of the proposed road is very close to environmentally sensitive Oro Lea cold creek which runs into Lake Simcoe.Vehicular contaminants, snow clearing,and de-icing materials will runoff into the creek which will significantly adversely impactthe ecological integrity of this cold water creek that is critical to healthy cold water fish habitat.Additional consideration should be given to the need for the access road at all, and whether the Greenwood Forest/Winfield connecting road or the East/West Winfield road connection is appropriate. 5.Natural Heritage evaluation report, there is a stream that flows from the proposed parking area north of Greenwood Forest Road to Lake Simcoe.. This stream adds to the coldwaterfisheries of Lake Simcoe.Vehicular contaminants, snow clearing,and de- icing materials will runoff into this continuous surface water directly into Lake Simcoe, causing significant adverse impact to cold water fish habitatand water quality in the lake. 6.The Lake shoreline area adjacent to the subject lands is ideal fish habitat.From 50 meters to Whitefish and Lake Trout Habitats.One of the key objectives of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan is to protect this cold water fish habitat.The run off from the parking lot, road construction and increasedtraffic adjacent to the cold water creek will damage the cold fish habitat which is one of the most significant natural heritage features of Oro Medonte and key objectives of the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan to protect. 7.The development would cause thousands of trees to be cut down which will destroy animal, bird, amphibian and plant habitat.This would begin less than 60 meters from the Lake.The Lake Simcoe Protection Plan protects woodland area with 120 meters from the shoreline.The proposed major development would reduce critical high-quality woodland and wildlife habitat which is a key natural heritage feature that LSPP protects. In summary, we have identified a number of very serious concerns with the Application. We submit that Council defera decision on this Application at the June 3, 2020 Public Hearing. The public should have the time needed to investigate these concerns more fully and the opportunity to present them and any other matters that may come up in due course and as part of a process that respects the rights of the public and takes into account the exigences of the pandemic.

My family and I have lived on Greenwood Forest Road since 1999, and it has always been our form of escape from the chaos and stress of the city. For the past twenty years, our family has enjoyed the relative peace and quiet of the street. The relatively untouched forest and unmarred ravine have helped reduce the noise of the traffic from Ridge Road, and has afforded the residents a sense of privacy, given the lack of traffic on the Northern side. This has also allowed the wildlife on the edge of the lake to flourish, and we fear that any new construction will scare away or destroy the habitat of our furry mink neighbours. With the proposed re-zoning, we believe the addition of ten houses will double the current amount of traffic, and will inevitably result in the removal of the lush greenspace that is so integral to the value of our property. We would ask that you please reject this application, in light of the above.

Advisory Comments 3.LSRCA is reviewing the application through our responsibilities as a service provider to the Township of Oro-Medonte/County of Simcoe in that we provide comment on all Zoning Amendment applications through a MOU as well as through our role as a public body, pursuant to the Planning Act. The subject property appears to be covered by significant woodland. Pursuant to Section 2.1 of the PPS, the Application will need to demonstrate no negative impact to natural heritage features or their ecological functions. This will be demonstrated through submission of a Natural Heritage Evaluation to the satisfaction of LSRCA in accordance with the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan. The m and Restoration Strategy. If permitted, any proposed removal of a natural heritage feature on this site would require the Applicant Offsetting Plan. An Ecological Offsetting Strategy (EOS) that describes, in concept, how the loss of natural heritage features will be compensated is required to the satisfaction of LSRCA. Technical comments related to Natural Heritage are being prepared by Kate Lillie, Natural Heritage Ecologist and will be provided under separate copy. therefore will be required to satisfy DP-4.8 of the LSPP. This will include submission of Stormwater Management Report in accordance with LSRCA Technical Guidelines for Stormwater Management Submissions. Technical comments related to stormwater management will be provided by Ken Cheney, P. Eng. and will be provided under separate copy. Technical comments related to Hydrogeology will be provided by Caroline Hawson, P. Geo. And will also be provided under separate copy.

At this time, the province is in a public health emergency and virtual meetings are the only way to hold a public meeting. Clearly, issues that affect a small number of residents or have minimal objections could be undertaken. The province has provided approval for virtual meetings that must occur because of the urgent nature of the issue to be reviewed. It is very difficult to honestly state that these amendments meet any of these criteria. In our township, there is considerable variability in internet speed. Those individuals with older hardware or slower internet speeds will have great difficulty in video and audio quality during virtual meetings. There could many members of the group most affected by these amendments who are in the age group where computer literacy may affect the ability to participate. Has the township reached out to the neighbours who may be impeded by computer literacy to give them an option of telephone participation? If even one person objects at a later date with respect to any of these issues, then the meeting will be judged to be deficient. I would like to add that the technical quality of the online cannabis meeting recently held online was poor. The audio from some of the councilors was inaudible who were accessing by telephone. The session was dropped by my computer part way through and I had to log in again. This meant that that I missed some minutes of the meeting. There were others that told me of a similar issue at exactly the same time that my session was dropped. In summary, I strongly object to this virtual meeting at this time. It needs to be rescheduled.

Hello, My name is Andy West. I am part of a third generation of family owners of a property on Greenwood Forest Road. I am writing on behalf of my family to express our deepest concerns around, and oppositionto the proposed development by UCCI Consolidated Companies Inc.,application 2020-B-04 to 2020-B-12 (2020-ZBA-05). Having reviewed the application,as well as comments from neighbours as posted on the Township website, I can see that there is much to be concerned about here. Clearly, crucial steps in the application and review process have been overlooked, leaving many residents caught off guard at atime when it is very difficult to make formal cross assessments, in addition to building plans of opposition. This feels opportunistic, seemingly taking advantage of a moment of global uncertainty, and bypassing many of the standards of ethical assessmentthat are required in these applications. This leaves me with many administrative question marks, which is not a good start. As expressed in the many letters of dissent I have just read, I also have grave concern for the natural habitat, wildlife, streams, and water table that will be negatively impacted and/or wiped out by such a large development on a small parcel of land. Sadly, it is this displacement of nature that has brought us to the Pandemic world we now live in. This is not dramatics. This is truth, and we must all do our part. An unbiased and fair environmental assessment is a must. As with my neighbours, I have many questions that I feel must be addressed. I will not repeat them in this letter, but strongly echo their opposition, and request to postpone this hearing until a time when all residents are given all of the facts around this proposal, can prepare the rightful responses in a fair and equitable way, and most importantly can appear in person as a community. To not allow for this goes against the very principles of what a public forum should be. I am asking you to push this back, for the good of all parties involved.

Dear Mayor Huges and members of Council, It is disappointing that this development application made it this far. It appears to not conform to the commitment to the Lake, Oro- provincial law. In 2014 Tim Crooks (dearly departed Lake Simcoe champion from Shanty Bay) and I from the Rescue Lake Simcoe Coalition, and AWARE Simcoe provided recommendations to the Town, for the OP review, attached again here. The recommendations followed community mapping session in which residents identified which ones, and why, natural areas were special to them, or were valued for ecological reasons. Had these changes been made, and had planning staff understood how the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan worked, and applied it, I believe this application would not have got this far. I implore you to do better moving forward, and to ensure that this development application is treated according to provincial law. We rely on our elected officials to do so. It should not be necessary for citizens to organize like this to ensure that the law is being followed. Please know we will be watching and commenting on this as an important test cas commitment to the lake, the application of the LSPP, and the watershed decision- protect the features that make this lake healthy, special, beautiful, and sustainable. Further, the Rescue Lake Simcoe Coalition would like to be contacted by the Township with information regarding the current status of the Official Plan review, opportunities for input, review, and comment timelines. Thank you, Claire Malcolmson Executive Director Rescue Lake Simcoe Coalition Page 346 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... Recommendations for 2014 Oro-Medonte Official Plan review By the Rescue Lake Simcoe Coalition and AWARE Oro-Medonte June 2014 The Township of Oro-Medonte is in the process of revising its Official Plan to conform to the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP). The members of the Rescue Lake Simcoe Coalition and AWARE Oro-Medonte request that the Township incorporate the following recommendations into the new Oro-Medonte Official Plan. Note that the recommendations are not an inclusive list and do not include all the revisions that must be done to bring the Official Plan into conformity with the LSPP. Objective: Update and revise the current Oro-Medonte Official Plan so that it conforms to all Lake Simcoe Protection Plan policies. The updates will apply to the part of Oro-Medonte that is in the Lake Simcoe watershed. Assumption Although the Official Plans of Municipalities are reviewed about every five years, we assume that we are planning for health of Lake Simcoe for the long term. We do not want to be discussing the very same problems and poor prognosis of Lake Simcoe in five, twenty, fifty or one hundred years from now. Therefore, for the purposes of our recommendations, we assume that we are planning for the future good health of Lake Simcoe for the next fifty to one hundred years. Economic Development Plan of Oro-Medonte: The following challenges and needs were taken from th- dated September 2011. The information came from a survey obtained from two community meetings attended by 60 people and from a survey filled out by 56 respondents. Listed below is a sample of some of the development and environmental concerns that were identified: ΐ Page 347 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... Preserving natural beauty and recreational opportunities. Avoiding environmental degradation. Maintaining the rural atmosphere. A clear plan for growth areas. Avoidance of urban sprawl. Maintain the treed landscape. Deforestation, water pollution and loss of species habitat. Pollution of Lake Simcoe. Lack of bike trails. Fortunately, the Township may be able to satisfy and meet the above challenges when it conforms the OP to the LSPP and implements the following recommendations. Problems and Recommendations: 1. Natural Cover Target Problem particular site level criteria and are 25 hectares or larger. (Please refer to the HQNC Oro Medonte.pdf map sent.) At the moment, the high quality natural vegetative cover in the part of Oro-Medonte that is in the Lake Simcoe watershed is roughly 40 percent. Part of Policy 6.23-DP of the LSPP states that development or site alteration is not permitted within a key natural heritage feature, a key hydrologic feature or a related vegetation protection zone. However, there are exemptions to this policy; for example existing uses as at the date the LSPP was passed are allowed. (See LSPP Policies 6.23-DP and 6.45-DP for a list of all the exemptions) ). An example of an existing use is to allow the owner of a woodlot that is zoned Rural to build a house on the land. This means that the owner could cut down trees and therefore reduce the amount of natural vegetative cover. We are concerned that the cumulative effect of all the exemptions will reduce the high quality natural vegetative cover to less than 40 percent. This would harm Lake Simcoe by allowing more phosphorus to flow into the lake every year. Although Section B of the current Official Plan contains many worthwhile general statements related to the preservation and enhancement of the natural environment, it does not contain any measurable objectives. Recommendation The solution is to protect at least 40 percent high quality natural vegetative cover to mitigate the impact of the exemptions to policy 6.23 of the LSPP. We recommend that the township include this target in the appropriate section of the revised Official Plan. This measurable, achievable and challenging target will be clear to developers, the public and planners. Α Page 348 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... 2. Natural Heritage Definitions Problem natural policy 6.30-SA. Recommendation r LSPP policy 6.30-SA. The draft definitions are attached. (See attached document from the MNR titled Definition of key natural heritage terms.pdf.) These definitions are inclusive and include nearly all large and small woodlands and wetlands. The inclusive nature of the draft definitions will protect as much as possible and will therefore limit the loss or fragmentation of Oro- 3. Simplifying Environmental Protection Designations Problem The current OP contains three different environmental designations: EP, EP1 and EP2. In and difficult to understand. Recommendations a. Take this opportunity to review and simplify the current environmental designations. The Township may need a new environmental protection designation that will conform to the protection by the draft definitions given by LSPP policy 6.30 SA. We suggest that the new designation be called Environmental Protection for Woodlands and Wetlands (EPWW). b. Place the following features into the Environmental Protection for Woodlands and Wetlands designation: i. The Rail Trail Greenlands, all the undeveloped woodlands and wetlands that are between the Ridge Road and the developed areas along the Lake Simcoe shoreline and between Barrie and Orillia, excluding the current built up areas. ii. Key natural heritage features as defined by LSPP policy 6.21-DP (wetlands, significant woodlands, significant valleylands and natural areas abutting Lake Simcoe). iii. Key hydrologic heritage features as defined by policy 6.22-DP (wetlands, permanent and intermittent streams, and lakes other than Simcoe). iv. Areas of high quality natural cover that are 25 hectares or greater (as shown on the map Β Page 349 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... Watershed Oro-Medo 4. Simplifying Maps Problem The municipality is not required to update its maps when it updates its policies to conform to the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan. Outdated maps will confuse everyone working on land use issues, and we fear, will lead to inadequate understanding of, and inadequate protection of forests and wetlands. Recommendations -Medonte Official Plan Natural Features - that it includes all the features listed under recommendation number 3, features we suggest be included in a new designation, EPWW, using mapping completed by the MNR as a result of the LSPP. The map should make it clear and easy for residents, developers and planners to see what areas are off-limits to development. b. Update policies applying to lands adjacent to key Natural Heritage System and Key Hydrologic Features to conform to the LSPP. See section B of the Oro-Medonte Official Plan, and LSPP Chapter 6, vegetation protection zones, and LSPP policy 6.27. 5. Endangered Species Problem The 2007 Official Plan says that no habitats of endangered species were known when the Environmental Protection 1 (EP1) boundaries were drawn, but that the habitats of endangered species would be added to EP1 if additional studies were done. Recommendation The OP should include and reflect information about the habitats of endangered species. Solicit input from naturalist groups, members of the public, local colleges, the Ministry of Natural Resources, and others on current research and information regarding the habitat of endangered species within Oro-Medonte, in order to increase the level of protection from EP2 to EP1 where appropriate. This should be done very soon, to allow participants time to prepare submissions. 6. Protecting Shorelines Problem The Lake Simcoe shoreline is heavily developed, and needs to be naturalized in order to improve the Recommendations Γ Page 350 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... a. Adopt the recommendations in the forthcoming Shoreline Management Strategy, which stems from LSPP policy 6.12 and 6.13-SA. b. Commit to taking action on these two LSPP policies in the updated OP: o 6.14-SA: Public bodies are encouraged to actively re-naturalize public areas adjacent to shorelines and streams to a minimum of 30 metres where practical and feasible. o 6.15-SA: Through the implementation of the stewardship, education and outreach policies (8.5-8.11) owners of existing cottages and residences will be encouraged to re-naturalize shorelines and areas adjacent to streams up to 30 metres where practical and feasible. c. Ensure that a hydrological assessment is completed prior to granting planning approvals for new waterfront lots to ensure that the density of development will not cause the nitrate limit to be exceeded. (See MOE Guideline D-5-4). Small lot development should be restricted to sites that meet the highest recommended standards for nitrate control. 7. The Creation of New Lots Problem One of the main objectives of the Oro-Medonte Official Plan is to maintain the rural character of the Township. The current OP contains many references to the need to protect the environment and maintain the rural quality of life. Also, the Provincial Places to Grow legislation directs new development to the Settlement Areas (called Rural Settlement Areas in the current OP). In spite of the objectives of the Township and the Province, it is possible to create new lots outside Settlement Areas. For example, Sections C6.3.1, C2.3.1, C2.3.2 and D2.2.1 of the OP allow new lots to be created. Over time the Official Plan could allow the creation of many new lots. These new lots will erode the rural character of the Township by creating strips of housing (strip development) along the rural concession roads. Recommendations We recommend that the Township review the regulations in the Official Plan for creating new lots, for example: Section C1.3.2: This section is very restrictive, no recommendation. Section C2.3.1: We propose that the Township make this section more restrictive and define what Section C2.3.2: No recommendation. Section C6.3.1: This section may be sufficiently restrictive. Section D2.2 and D2.2.1: Over a period of 28 months, from January 2012 to April 2014, 20 new lots were created under Policy D2.2.1 of the Township of Oro-Medonte Official Plan. Lots created at that rate would amount to 956 new lots in the whole Township over the next 100 years. We are concerned about the number of lots that may be created in the Lake Simcoe watershed part of Oro-Medonte. Δ Page 351 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... Problem The Phosphorus Reduction Strategy paper tell us that new development will put additional phosphorus into Lake Simcoe. Therefore, until housing and other developments can be built on new lots without harming the lake, we suggest the following. Recommendation: Make the restrictions for creating new lots more restrictive. For example, if housing or other development is planned for a new lot, make sure that the development is done is ways that will not produce additional run-off that may harm the lake. 8. Insufficient Land for Development Problem When existing building lots inside and outside of Settlement Areas are filled, where will the Township settle people? How will the Township accommodate population growth without contributing to urban sprawl and without reducing woodland and wetland cover? Recommendation We believe that intensification is part of the answer to the above problems. For example and where possible, we suggest that owners of large lots in Settlement Areas be allowed subdivide and or sever their lots into one or more lots. This recommendation allows for the creation of new lots in existing Settlement Areas in Oro-Medonte without losing natural cover. 9. Septic System Inspections Problem Some of the phosphorus loading into Lake Simcoe comes from faulty or obsolete septic systems. We are very pleased that individual septic systems are being inspected in Oro-Medonte. However, many residents are concerned that the rules followed by the inspectors fail to identify inadequate systems and that the inspectors do not find obsolete or inadequate septic systems. Recommendations a. Inspectors must be trained and carry proper certification in order to carry out septic inspections for the Township, and the inspectors should be prepared to explain to the homeowner how and why the procedure will result in an assurance that their septic system meets or exceeds the standards. b. As a minimum, we recommend that the Township set up a website that shows how the septic inspections should be performed. Ideally, we would like the Township to send a mailing to each household that indicates how the septic inspections should be carried out. 10. Progress Report to the Public Problem Ε Page 352 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo... The residents of Oro-Medonte would like to know what the Township is doing to reduce the amount of phosphorus flowing into the lake. Recommendations We understand that this is outside of the OP review process, but the public consultations provide an opportunity for the Township to update the residents on its progress in completing the following LSPP policies.

From: LARRY BELL <larryandkim11@rogers.com> Sent: Wednesday, June 3, 2020 3:08 PM To: Planning <Planning@oro-medonte.ca> Subject: Amendment of 2020-ZBA-05 Good Afternoon, Our family has enjoyed living in this community for over 10 years, when we purchased we understood that the lands behind us would either be left or a golf course as that was the original plan. We understand that change and development makes for strong communities. However we do have some concerns with the proposed lots, that will be behind us. 1-What is the definition of retained lot? And what is it retained for? This seems vague and uninformative, that information is deliberately withheld. And why? 2-Lands dedicated for parking? For what? Why? 3-We would like clarification on the pathway between 9 and 11 Windfield dr East, is that path part of this plan? 4-Are there purchasing rights to that land instead of the path? As we would prefer to not have the pathway. 5-We are concerned with the new lots they are small, and people tend to encroach in lands that do not belong to them around here, as we have the majority of the land we would be remiss if we did not ask for some definition of property like a fence or barrier to ensure such issues in the future do not arise. Thank you for your time, we look forward to some answers. Cheers Larry and Kim Bell Page 355 of 470 5.j) 7:30 p.m. Notice of Public Meeting for Proposed Amendment to the Zo...

The subject lands are located on the east side of Line 2 South, in a single detached residential neighbourhood in Shanty Bay. The case number for this appeal is PL190028. \[2\] Additionally, under s.45(12) of the Act, Ms. Jones has appealed the March, 2019 decision of the Township to approve, with conditions, a minor variance application for the subject lands. The file number for this appeal is PL190215. \[3\] Both PL190028 and PL190215 are being heard together. \[4\] The Applicant for both the severance and the minor variance application is Glen Cormier. Mr. Cormier lives in the existing single detached dwelling on the lands to be retained. The lands to be severed are intended to be developed with a new single detached dwelling. \[5\] ) on Line 2 South. The proposed severed and retained lands would each have lot areas of approximately 0.10 ha and approximate frontages of Page 454 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 3PL190028 22.5 m on Line 2. \[6\] By-law No. 97-equires: a minimum lot size of 0.2 ha, whereas the severed and retained parcels would each be 0.10 ha in area at minimum; and a minimum lot frontage of 30.0 m, whereas the severed and retained parcels would each have minimum frontages of 22.5 m. \[7\] The eleven conditions severance \[Attachment 1\] are mostly technical, but include the requirement that the Applicant apply for and gain approval for the minor variances for lot area and lot frontage, and Site Plan Approval. \[8\] The two conditions attached application \[Attachment 2\] were that the severed and retained lands shall otherwise comply with the ZBL, and that the Site Plan be presented to the Township for its consideration. \[9\] The Appellant, Ms. Jones, testified on her own behalf in opposition to the proposed severance and minor variances. She is not a professional land use planner, and she did not engage a professional planner to provide planning opinion evidence. However, as apparent from Exhibit 7(A), she intended to provide planning opinion evidence on the relationship between the proposal and provincial policies, the Planning Act, the Simcoe County Official Plan, the Oro-Medonte Official Plan and the ZBL. \[10\] The Tribunal explained to Ms. Jones that, as she was not qualified to venture into those areas, any testimony and exhibits that she wished to submit on those matters would not be given much weight. Instead, she was directed to scope her evidence Page 455 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 4PL190028 down to lay testimony related to perceived impacts of the proposed severance and minor variances. \[11\] Derek Witlib, Manager of Planning Services for the Township, testified under summons in support of the proposed severance and minor variances. Mr. Witlib was qualified by the Tribunal to provide expert opinion evidence in the field of land use planning. \[12\] Counsel for the Township did not attend the hearing. \[13\] Judi Bolton and Haiddee Fish were each granted participant status on consent of the Parties. Both individuals live in the neighbourhood, and both testified against the proposal. CONSENT -- ANALYSIS AND DISPOSITION \[14\] : meets all criteria contained in s.51(24) of the Act; is consistent with the 2014 Provincial Policy Statement conforms to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2019) , and in particular s.2.2.1 (b) (i) and (ii); , and in particular to s.3.5 (Settlement Areas), 4.7.6. (Infrastructure: Sewer and Water Services) and 4.8 (Transportation); and conforms to the Township OP, and in particular to sections A.4.2.5. (Shanty Bay policies), D.2.2.1. (general criteria for new lots by consent) and C.3 Page 456 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 5PL190028 (Rural Settlement Areas). \[15\] At the time of the hearing, the 2014 PPS was in force and effect. On May 1, 2020, a new 2020 PPS came into force and effect, replacing the 2014 PPS. The proposal in this appeal is now subject to the 2020 PPS. Based on its reading of the 2020 PPS, the Tribunal finds that the proposal is consistent with the PPS, and in particular, those policies that deal with intensification in settlement areas. The subject lands are in a settlement area. \[16\] The sum of planning evidence was almost entirely uncontroverted except for s.51(24)(f), the \[17\] Ms. Jones testified that the proposed lot dimensions were inappropriate, contending that the surrounding Shanty Bay neighbourhood is one omes on \[18\] To support her contention, Ms. Jones entered into evidence statistics she had compiled for lot sizes in the neighbourhood bounded by Line 2 South, Bay Street, ien Street and Brook Lane, along with selected photographs of neighbourhood homes \[Exhibit 7.B\]. Ms. Jones had calculated that 92% of neighbourhood lots were larger than the 0.1 ha proposed lots; that only 8% of neighbourhood lots were smaller than the proposed lots; and that 89% of properties were 1/3 acre (0.134 ha) or larger. \[19\] Participants Ms. Bolton and Ms. Fish also testified that they thought the proposed lots were too small and out of character in the neighbourhood, and that any new dwelling on the severed lot would have too large a footprint on its lands. \[20\] Mr. Witlib did not agree that the proposed lot sizes were out of character with the existing neighbourhood fabric. In his professional opinion, there was great variation in lot size and dwelling size in the area, and the proposed lots would not be out of place. Page 457 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 6PL190028 \[21\] The rationale for requiring the 0.2 ha lot size in the ZBL was outdated, Mr. Witlib opined. He explained that the ZBL dated from 1997, and that the 0.2 ha lot size reflected the septic system technology and municipal oversight practices at the time. Though the ZBL standards had not yet been changed, the requirements of septic systems certainly had, allowing for lots of smaller area. \[22\] Ms. Jones requested that the Tribunal member undertake a site and neighbourhood visit at the conclusion of the hearing to have a better understanding of the lot fabric. The Appellant consented to this. The Tribunal member drove all the streets in the neighbourhood bounded by Line 2 South, Bay Street, Church Street, Bell Lane, \[23\] s from the neighbourhood and site visit are that: the neighbourhood has such a variety of lot sizes and dwelling sizes that there is no regular or discernable pattern that would serve to preclude lots with a 22.5 m frontage; and the proposed lot sizes would not appear out of place, as no rigid pattern appears to exist. \[24\] Therefore, the Tribunal finds that the proposed severance meets all criteria contained in s.51(24) of the Act. Further, the Tribunal finds that the balance of Mr. ZBL is sound and supportable, and will result in good planning. \[25\] Aside from raising concerns about lot size and frontage, Ms. Jones, Bolton and Fish also raised concerns about effects of new construction on stormwater run-off (due to a new building footprint), and Ms. Bolton expressed concern about the potential loss of trees as a result of new development that could occur after severance. Page 458 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 7PL190028 \[26\] However, the Tr impacts are not related to severance -- without a severance, the Applicant could have created an even larger building footprint and resulted in the removal of even more trees. Disposition regarding PL190028 \[27\] The Tribunal will allow the requested consent subject to the conditions set out in Attachment 1, as the planning merits of the consent were amply demonstrated by Mr. VARIANCE APPLICATION ANALYSIS AND DISPOSITION \[28\] The Tribunal considered the application for minor variance pursuant to the Four Tests set out in s.45(1) of the Act, namely: Do the variances maintain the general intent and purpo Do the variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the ZBL? Are the variances minor? Test) Are the variances desirable for the appropriate development of the land? Test) Page 459 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 8PL190028 OP Test \[29\] Mr. size and lot frontage conformed fully to the County OP with particular regard for s.4.7.6. Infrastructure: Sewer and Water Services. He testified that private septic system requirements could be met on a lot sized 0.1 ha with a frontage of 22.5 m. \[30\] In addition, Mr. Witlib testified that the proposed lot size and frontage conforms to the Township OP, and in particular to sections A.4.2.5. Shanty Bay policies and C.3 Rural Settlement Areas, as the proposed lot areas and frontages would still result in two large, low-density lots that retain a rural character. He maintained that these two lots would not erode or alter the character of the surrounding neighbourhood, and that, if the Appellant and Participants are concerned about precedent-setting, there were very few opportunities to replicate the exercise in this part of Shanty Bay. \[31\] Based on this evidence, the Tribunal finds that the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the OP. ZBL Test \[32\] Mr. Witlib testified that ZBL. Aside from the variances for lot area and frontage, no other variances are sought. \[33\] Mr. Witlib testified that the general intent and purpose of the lot size and frontage controls in the ZBL was to reflect septic system sizing requirements, but that the controls in place were out of date and a modern septic system could now be accommodated on a lot sized 0.1 ha with a frontage of 22.5 m. \[34\] Lot area and frontage controls in a ZBL can also serve to reinforce a regular lot pattern. In this case, the evidence was that the proposed lot area and frontage for the new and severed lots would not be out of place in a neighbourhood that has no Page 460 of 470 8.a) Correspondence dated May 25, 2020 from the Local Planning Appeal Tr... 9PL190028 discernable, regular lot pattern. \[35\] On this basis, the Tribunal finds that the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the ZBL. Minor Test and Desirability Test \[36\] Mr. Witlib opined that the variances are minor as they have no appreciable negative impact. The Appellant provided no persuasive evidence to the contrary. Accordingly, the Tribunal finds that the variances are minor in nature. \[37\] On the matter of desirability, Mr. Witlib testified that the variances are desirable because they would result in efficient residential infill in a settlement area, as long as the conditions set by the Township are imposed by the Tribunal. The Tribunal finds accordingly.
