1.   Disclosures of Pecuniary Interest

2.   Property located at 660 Sunningdale Road

East (39T-09501/OZ/7368)

That, on the recommendation of the Senior Planner, Development Planning, the following actions be taken with respect to the Draft Plan of Subdivision, Official Plan amendment and Zoning By-law amendment applications by Extra Realty, relating to the property located at 660 Sunningdale Road East, located on the northwest corner of Sunningdale Road East and Adelaide Street North (legally described as the South Half of Lot 13, Concession 6, (Geographic Township of London)):   a)         the proposed by-law, as appended to the staff report dated July 28, 2014, BE INTRODUCED at the Municipal Council meeting to be held on July 29, 2014 to amend the Official Plan to change the designation on Schedule “A” – Land Use FROM Low Density Residential, Multi-Family, Medium Density Residential and Open Space TO Low Density Residential, Multi-Family, Medium Density Residential, Main Street Commercial Corridor and Open Space; to change the designation  on Schedule “B1” – Flood Plain & Environmental Features by removing the Unevaluated Corridors designation and refining the Provincially Significant Wetland boundary; and to change the designation on Schedule “C” – Transportation Corridors by amending the east-west secondary collector road to align with Street D, by amending the north-south secondary collector road to align with Street A, and by redesignating Street A from Sunningdale Road East to Street D as  Primary Collector;   b)         the request to amend the Official Plan to change the designation of the subject lands FROM a Multi-Family, Medium Density Residential designation which allows townhouses and various forms of cluster housing at a maximum density of 75 units per hectare TO a Multi-Family, High Density Residential designation to allow for apartments at a maximum height of 42 metres and a maximum density of 150 units per hectare, and a Neighbourhood Commercial Node designation to allow for a range of commercial uses including bake shops, catalogue stores, clinics, convenience service establishments, day care centres, duplicating shops, financial institutions, food stores, libraries, medical/dental offices, offices, personal service establishments, restaurants, retail stores, service and repair establishments, studios, video rental establishments, brewing on premises establishment, with a total maximum gross floor area of 3,200 m2 (34,444.5 ft2) for food stores and 500 m2 (5,382.0 ft2) for all other individual uses BE REFUSED for the following reasons:   Multi-Family, High Density Residential   i)              the proposed development does not take into account surrounding land uses in terms of height and scale, and is not in keeping with the surrounding low-rise forms of development;  ii)             this location for high density is not located in an activity node (adjacent to large scale shopping and employment centres) nor is it located at a point of high accessibility (such as transit service); iii)            high rise forms of development should be directed to higher order transit corridors in an effort to support future rapid transit and its associated corridors; iv)           a mid-rise form is more appropriate given the road classification, while providing support for the surrounding commercial; and v)            the proposed use does not meet the criteria within the Official Plans as it is not located near the periphery of the Downtown, is not in proximity to Enclosed Regional Commercial Nodes, New Format Regional Commercial Nodes or Community Commercial Nodes, or in proximity to Regional Facilities; and, vi)           the original proposed high density block is less than 3 hectares in size; it being noted that a minimum of 3 hectares is recommended for high density blocks in order to achieve and accommodate a mixing of housing types, building heights and densities, and a transition in scale.   Neighbourhood Commercial Node   i)             the amount of commercial proposed does not meet the intent of the Uplands  North Area Plan; ii)            the commercial justification study has provided certain assumptions to base its conclusions on, that Staff do not agree with; iii)           the orderly distribution and development of commercial uses to satisfy the shopping and service needs of residents and shoppers was already considered in this area, and the addition of larger scale retail opportunities would likely compete with these planned areas; iv)           recent applications to add commercial uses within the Uplands North Planning area were refused by Council and the decision upheld by the Ontario Municipal Board; and, v)            the Main Street Commercial designation is a more appropriate commercial designation for this area, as it encourages smaller scale commercial uses in mixed used buildings, achieves placemaking principles of mixed use development, encourages building form and design that is pedestrian oriented, and facilitates a wide range of small scale commercial and office/personal service establishments that are meant to fulfill the local needs of residents;   c)         the proposed by-law, as appended to the staff report dated July 28, 2014, BE INTRODUCED at the Municipal Council meeting to be held on July 29, 2014, to amend Zoning By-law No. Z.-1, (in conformity with the Official Plan, as amended in part a), above), to change the zoning of the subject lands FROM an  Environmental Review (ER) Zone, and an Urban Reserve (UR4) Zone TO:   i)              a Holding Residential R1 Special Provision (h. h-100.h(  )-R1-4() Zone to permit single detached dwellings with a minimum lot area of 360 m2 and minimum lot frontage of 12 m, with a special provision for a reduced front yard setback of 3.0 metre to the house and 5.5 metre to the garage from a collector or local road, and a reduced interior side yard setback of 1.2 metres;
