a
similar

and
whereas
there

a
desire
to

D
A
E
Ready
to
go
Thank
You
mr.
chair,
thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
this
motion,
the
old
Auto
East
Community
Association
supports
the
proposal
to
split
consideration
of
the
two
buildings
in
question.
We
welcome
the
decision
to
seek
an
official
plan
amendment
for
this
particular
zoning
designation.
Further
down
the
line,
we
have
some
concerns
with
the
proposed
changes
for
building
two-way.
E
A
G
I'm
in
favor
of
the
proposal
for
the
to
a
building
that
I
noticed
I've
been
away
for
about
a
week
on
holiday
and
there
were
some
new
drawings
added
to
the
the
diva
website
dated
April
5th,
and
this
is
one
of
them
results.
Well,
this
is
one
of
them.
This
is
the
roof
I'm
wondering
about.
If
I
look
at
the
elevation
drawings
I
see
some
projections
above
the
height
limit
at
the
main
street
frontage
and
I,
don't
know
what
that
is.
G
There's
three
columns
going
up,
whether
there's
a
roof
on
top
of
it,
I
don't
know,
but
I
think
they
must
be
an
error,
because
this
drawing
would
would
show
a
roof
at
the
dotted
line
on
the
right.
So
if
you
look
at
the
dotted
line,
that's
the
roof
of
the
hand
house,
washroom,
elevator
and
equipment
area,
but
just
like
confirmation
from
there
should
be
confirmation
that
there
isn't
any
other
projections
about
the
height
limit.
Besides
that
area
and
the
stair
on
the
on
the
western
end
of
the
building.
A
H
Part
and
parcel
with
this
application
for
zoning
amendment
is
also
an
application
for
site
plan
control
and
so
a
resubmission
to
that
site.
Plan
control
process
had
been
submitted
for
theft
and
posted
on
the
development
application
search
tool.
So
those
are
the
elevations
mr.
good
keys,
referring
to.
H
I
Very
much
mr.
chair,
yeah
I,
certainly
on
mr.
good
keys
inquiry.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
we
do
have
that
information
so
because
I
think
everyone's
in
supportive
of
this
building
I
am
as
well,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we've
got
it.
We've
got
it
right.
The
only
piece
that
I
would
like
to
see
potentially
changes
around
the
bathrooms
on
the
rooftop
I've
spoken
with
Reach
about
that
actually
I.
Just
this
item
was
originally
deferred
because
mr.
Carter's
couldn't
couldn't
be
here
for
that
him
is
mr.
Carter's
here
to
to.
H
I
I
J
H
I
Day
in
advance,
because
he
couldn't
be
here
for
a
family
emergency
totally
understood
yeah,
but
here
we
are
and
he's
not
here.
So
as
I
mentioned
I'm
in
favor
of
us,
could
you
folks
potentially
comment
on
the
projection
that
mr.
good
he
was
talking
about?
Is
there
actually
a
further
projection
besides
the
two
originally
intended
in
that
area?
Has
that
been
changed
like
the
new,
the
new
dev
app
information
that
came
out
has
that
changed
to
have
a
higher?
A
A
H
You
thank
you
very
much.
Sharon
councillors,
my
name
is
Kelly
Road
Nasser
and
the
director
of
commercial
and
multi-family
development
here
at
regional
I'm
here
with
Erin
O'connor
who's,
the
manager
of
land
and
she's
been
responsible
for
the
Graystone
development
we'd
like
to
thank
the
chair
and
councillors
for
accepting
the
deferral
application
until
today,
and
we
also
want
to
state
that
regional
is
in
support
of
the
motion
as
presented
to
separate
out
the
zoning
bylaw
to
move
forward
with
2a,
which
is
75,
Main
Street.
H
The
six
stories
and
define
10
o
blaid
for
the
nine
stories
we'd
like
to
make
it
clear
that
our
position
has
not
changed.
Since
our
original
application,
which
was
filed
to
the
city
in
March
of
2018,
our
planning
consultant
Nova
tech
professionals,
opinion
remains.
The
same.
Amendment
is
not
acquired,
which
is
the
same
position
as
the
stops
planning.
H
H
B
I
think
it's
important
to
realize
from
a
design
perspective
as
you
get
into
something
that
things
evolve
and
change,
and
nothing
is
more
substantive
than
the
contrast
with
the
demonstration
plan
that
you
see
before
us,
which
we
inherited
when
we
started
to
work
on
this
project,
which
was
basically
a
mixture
of
six
and
six
story.
Condo
buildings
sprinkled
across
the
site
it
had
a
combination
of
the
pink
is
a
mixed-use
mid-rise,
which
is
anything
four
to
nine
stories,
and
the
brown
was
mid-rise
was
logo
a
mid-rise
residential.
This
was
our
first
master
plan.
I.
B
Think
it's
important
to
realize.
So
the
first
thing
we
did
was
actually
look
at
the
market,
actually
look
at
doing
a
plan
and
made
sense
in
terms
of
the
neighborhoods
around
it.
So
housing,
diversity
and
a
variety
of
formats
are
really
important,
and
if
you
can
look
at
the
areas
that
they're
dotted,
you
know,
our
initial
thought
was
hey.
These
should
come
down
and
we
should
do
those
as
low-rise,
and
that
strategy
had
been
immensely
successful
because
we
immediately
had
people
moving
in
from
the
or
surrounding
neighborhood
who
didn't
have
a
housing
option.
B
So
housing
options
are
really
important,
so
that
included
things
like
singles
and
towns
which
weren't
currently
on
the
plan
with
a
much
finer
grain
pedestrian
scale.
Now
there
are
elements
that
are
higher
on
the
planet.
This
was
a
first
3d
model
of
phase
1
and
what
you'll
see
is
all
of
this
stuff
now
is
built,
and
this
is
under
construction,
but
you
also
realize
the
other
parts
of
the
scheme
are
revolving
and
changing,
because
that
we
can't
properly
anticipate
everything
and
one
of
the
significant
components
of
changes.
B
This
area
over
here,
which
is
now
seniors
in
retirement
home.
When
you
start
to
look
at
two
A
to
B
or
the
mixed-use
right
on
Oh
Blotz
and
on
the
ground
LA,
we
realized
the
number
of
really
significant
shapers.
One
is
that
the
Grand
Ave
was
a
heritage
piece
would
preserve
the
view
to
the
day
chatelet
buildings
important
to
honor
that,
secondly,
along
the
Grand
Ave
resort
was
trees
which
had
root
balls,
which
had
to
be
accommodated,
so
we
actually
had
to
adjust
mass.
The
other
part
is
Oh.
Blotz
Avenue
is
extremely
narrow.
B
We
didn't
realize
that
actually
no
parking
could
happen
on
the
Oblast
and
then
the
other
is
a
market
notion
that
we
actually
break
up
the
block.
So
we
could
create
some
housing
diversity
and
form
diversity,
and
in
the
process
of
doing
this,
we
went
through
a
series
of
massing
allocations
and
Skelly
mentioned,
and
we
basically
end
up
that
as
we
went
to
a
six-story,
which
is
to
eight
and
the
nine
story
which
is
to
be,
but
in
part
of
that,
it's
a
transferring
a
mass
and
trying
to
create
something
that
has
a
proper
human
scale.
B
So
now,
I'll
speak
to
councilman
R.
To
ask
me
about
these
elements.
This
is
just
a
pergola.
That's
on
the
roof.
That's
what
you're
talking
about!
There's
no
real
tall
tree
pocket,
it's
basically
a
form,
but
in
designing
the
two
parts
of
the
building.
We
want
to
reflect
different
parts
to
the
site,
potential
different
residents
and
also
break
up
the
massing
along
o
Blatz
and
the
ground
LA.
So
here's
our
cross
sectional
diagram.
This
is
an
earlier
diagram.
B
So
it's
not
entirely
reflective
of
the
final
plan,
but
there
are
a
number
of
principles
that
are
important
to
this.
One
is
the
greater
setback
up
to
Grand
LA,
which
leads
to
de
chatelet
building
the
accommodation
of
the
trees
and
very
and
the
other,
is
this
notion
of
six-story
de
diem,
a
datum
but
also
relief
along
the
grande
LA?
So
you
see
there's
a
major
courtyard.
B
That's
been
cut
back,
so
it's
not
a
solid
wall
and
then
we
also
increase
the
separation
between
280
be
significantly,
and
we
think
that's
a
really
important
piece
just
want
to
speak
a
little
bit
about
the
cross-section
and
that's
in
yellow
on
the
Left,
which
is
your
tradition.
Your
turn
Shaw
Main
Street
TM
zone
a
bit
of
a
rant
I.
Don't
actually
believe
that
cross-section
makes
any
sense
for
Ottawa
I
actually
believe
that
what
happens
at
the
ground
plane
is
really
important
and
two
significant
examples
of
that
or
these
projects
which
are
recently
completed.
B
One
end
councillor
both
of
me
councillor.
We
believers
Ward
and
that's
1140
Wellington,
where
the
Bethany
Hope
building
is
and
the
other
one
is
West
burrow
station
both
focus
on
what
happens
at
the
one
and
two
story
component.
That
is
the
most
important
thing
in
most
mean
streets
in
Ottawa.
This
notion
that
you
start
great
a
sidewalk
and
go
right
up
actually
is
creates
canyons
in
the
best
example
I
can
think
of
that
is
the
nuns
property
in
just
west
of
Flanders
over
the
the.
So
this
is
the
site
plan.
B
B
B
Both
of
these
suggests
that
the
building
mass
and
with
a
position
in
the
capital
penthouse,
is
so
far
back
that
it's
not
in
your
view
or
in
your
mind,
this
is
a
3d
vision
of
what's
showing
what
happens
in
between,
and
the
gap
allows
also
for
the
residents
of
the
domicile
building
to
the
north
to
actually
have
views
to
the
grand
la
so
that's
a
bear
and
that
to
be
actually
stops
after
the
buildings
to
the
north.
This
is
another
view
of
the
same
thing.
B
B
If
you
want
to
go
through
the
Sun
shadows,
I
could
bore
you
to
death,
but
the
the
notion
of
a
gap
and
breaking
the
building's
up
and
reducing
the
massing
actually
improves
the
Sun
shadowing
effect
and
creates
gaps
in
that
wall
that
could
exist
along
all
Blatz
and
the
ground.
Oi.
That's
my
presentation.
Mr.
chair
happy
to
answer
questions
great.
A
I
Thanks
very
much
mr.
chair
I
think
this
groups
done
a
great
job
with
with
2a
I
think
that
they've
worked
with
the
community
on
to
a
that.
They've
worked
with
planning
and
come
up
with
a
design
that
works
well
for
this
community.
The
reason
why
is
that
it
doesn't
overshadow
the
day
châtelet
building
it
fronts
on
to
Main
Street
and
provides
good
design
compared
to
the
corners
on
Main
next
door,
which
was
originally
already
put
in,
and
so
I
think
kudos
to
what
you've
done
on
I
think
it's
important.
I
The
planning
committee
members
know
why
we're
here
today
why
the
motion
came
from
mr.
Tierney,
mr.
and
mr.
hubely,
the
original
plan
for
this
space.
There
was
concern
about
the
secondary
plan.
There
was
a
disagreement
over
whether
the
secondary
plan
allowed
for
a
nine-story
building
at
to
be
so
that's
why
the
motion
is
in
front
of
you
today.
It
allows
the
separation
to
a
can
be
considered
on
its
own
and
there'll,
be
no
review
of
that,
and
so
it
can
just
go
through
and
start
to
start.
I
Construction
to
be
and
other
areas
of
a
site
will
go
through
an
official
plan
process
to
look
at
an
amendment.
I
think
the
community
welcomes
this
as
well
to
get
some
clarity
on
what's
there,
but
the
same
design
principles
that
are
being
used
for
2a
I
didn't
need
to
come
into
process
for
to
be
in
terms
of
this
historical
context
of
this
area
and
the
design
work,
and
so
I
want
to
ask
staff,
because
I
just
saw
the
motion
language
yesterday
around
7:00
p.m.
I
in
terms
of
this
of
this
significance,
but
I'm
in
favor
of
it.
I
just
normally
would
like
to
see
that
a
bit
earlier,
but
in
terms
of
the
Official
Plan
process,
which
is
part
of
this
motion
for
to
be.
Can
you
explain
to
me
how
that
will
work
in
terms
of
community
being
involved
their
input?
It's
not
like
a
just
an
amendment
to
a
zoning
to
me.
I
think
it's
more
important
than
that
and
we're
taking
to
context
other
elements
episode.
Is
that
correct
mr.
I
Mr.
chair,
no
okay,
fantastic!
What
I
wouldn't
want
to
see
is
to
say:
okay,
look
we're
just
doing
an
official
plan
process
to
give
you
know
exactly
what
was
asked
for
in
the
first
place
in
this
space.
That
shouldn't
be
the
case.
There
should
be
true
community
consultation
and
input
on
this.
So
with
that
being
said,
I'm
in
favor
of
the
motion,
aye
I
wish
the
the
washrooms
would
be
changed.
I,
don't
know
if
that's
if
someone
from
committee
wants
to
promotion
for
on
that,
but
I
supported
otherwise.
So
thanks
very
much.
A
A
L
Thank
You
chair,
my
name
is
Cory
shields
I'm
with
the
Vanier
Community
Association
I'm.
Speaking
on
behalf
of
the
of
the
VCA,
the
VCA
supports
the
application
rezone
site
of
twenty
mark
Avenue
in
Kingsville
part
committee
and
local
residents
have
actively
engaged
in
consultations
on
this
project
and
the
related
project
at
263.
L
Greene's
way,
we
support
the
intensification
in
infill
because
it
fits
in
to
the
neighborhood
and
relates
to
the
neighborhood
not
to
the
properties
behind
fronting
on
Montreal
Road,
for
example,
in
some
detail,
the
city
report
X
tolls
how
it
fits
in
consistent
with
the
Official
Plan
and
the
character
of
the
adjoining
neighborhood.
You
will
note
that
the
case
for
263
greens
way
is
different
related
rather
to
the
higher
built
form
transitioning
to
Montreal
Road
and
much
more
restrained
about
how
it
fits
into
the
neighborhood.
L
The
three-story
building
proposal
is
consistent
with
the
areas
are
poor
zoning
and
most
of
the
property
existing
property
use,
which
is
a
parking
lot,
so
we
don't
see
it
as
spot
zoning,
as
mentioned
the
building,
although
higher
appears
to
fit
well
with
the
adjoining
and
opposite
two-story
apartment
buildings
and
the
adjoining
property
on
the
west,
which
is
currently
used
as
a
group
home.
Replacing
the
parking
lot
used
by
residents
on
Mark
Avenue
does
represent
a
challenge,
but
the
community
has
identified
another
underutilized
parking
lot
nearby.
L
We
are
not
convinced,
however,
that
residents
would
use
the
proposed
parking
garage
for
the
way
further
away
at
263
means
way
as
it,
employment
and
other
parking
are
also
available.
We
welcome
the
fact
that
at
least
one
unit
will
be
fitted
for
disabled
use.
It
may
be
useful
to
consider
a
parking
space
for
a
future
disabled
tenant,
joining
the
new
building
or
with
a
disabled
parking
space
on
the
street.
Two
revisions
to
the
side
setback
concern,
but
we
hope
these
can
be
addressed
as
part
of
the
separate
side
plan
control
process.
L
The
importance
of
a
parking
space
for
drop-off
pickup
has
also
been
addressed
by
the
applicant.
The
proposal
to
add
to
subgrade
units
to
other
apartment
building,
so
we're
not
just
talking
about
20
mark
in
the
vicinity
is,
is
a
concern
not
only
because
of
the
floodplain
conditions,
but
also
because
basements
in
the
area
are
periodically
flooded
by
storm
water,
not
to
not
mention
in
the
staff
report.
We
trust
that
appropriate
measures
will
be
taken
to
minimize
the
risk
of
storm
water
damage
in
the
renovation
and
to
provide
indemnification
to
to
tenants
should
the
situation
arise.
L
A
M
Mr.
chair,
yes,
there's
a
from
a
compliance
point
of
view,
there's
no
parking
required
for
this
new
building
through
consultation,
there
was
Commons
about
the
need
for
perhaps
a
short-term
parking
space
or
drop-off
at
the
back
of
the
site
that
got
incorporated
into
a
plan.
If
there's
a
need
for
accessible
parking,
it
can
be
looked
at,
but
from
a
zoning
bylaw
point
of
view,
it's
it's
not
a
requirement
at
this
point.
A
A
L
You
chair
members
should
already
have
more
detailed,
written
nessam
submission.
Our
main
objection
to
the
rezoning
application
for
263
agrees
way
is
the
proposal
for
spot
zoning
to
permit
a
high-rise
building
that
is
incompatible
with
the
neighborhood
planning
committee.
Recently
correctly,
I
think
refused
an
application
for
a
spot
zoning
to
accommodate
expansion
of
an
existing
use
on
Island
Park
Drive.
L
The
report
cites
the
official
plan
concerning
consideration
of
the
character
and
the
surrounding
community
as
a
factor
in
determining
ability,
a
four-story
building
consistent
with
existing
zoning
and
flood
plain
restrictions
we
think
will
meet
the
plans,
object,
objective
of
intensification.
It
would
replace
a
parking
lot
and
double
the
height
compared
to
the
adjacent
apartment
building
and
be
compatible
with
the
existing
area,
including
the
two
adjacent
homes.
L
Yet
it
fits
in
terms
of
streetscapes
character
and
enlivens.
It
not
so
eloquent
about
263
Green's
way.
C
staffer
have
commended
twenty
mark,
but,
unlike
twenty
mark,
which
also
backs
on
properties
on
Monterey
Road,
the
report
to
Scott
describes
the
greens
way
application
largely
in
terms
of
its
relation
to
Montreal
Road
as
a
transition
to
the
existing
neighborhood.
Well,
it
doesn't
really
address
the
existing
neighborhood,
the
residential
area,
there's
no
reference
to
responding
to
the
street
streetscape
character.
Instead,
it
it
dominates
the
streetscape.
L
L
There's,
a
circus
argument
made
to
relate
it
to
the
potential
development
on
Montreal
Road,
despite
the
proposed
ring
around
rings
way.
Rezoning.
Also,
this
opening
the
door
to
similarly
residential
redevelopment
in
the
immediate
vicinity,
resulting
in
a
situation
we
fear
similar
to
Harrogate
where
affordable
housing
is
being
eliminated.
Such
a
trend
would
undermine
the
Official
Plan
and
provisions
concerning
affordable
housing.
The
proposed
floodplain
limits
do
not
justify
a
six-story
building.
L
It
may
have
been
better
to
turn
this
portion
of
the
property
into
green
space
befitting
of
a
floodplain,
but
we
have
supported
intensification
and
then
feel
here
with
suitable
landscaping,
given
the
floodplain
and
periodic
storm
water
damage.
Accordingly,
we
would
also
hope
that
the
city
see
the
development
the
developer
commits
to
consult
and
contract
in
writing
with
neighbors
about
any
damage
related
to
water
damage.
The
City
Commission
commissioned

report
recommended
again
against
building
and

the
south
side
of
the

L
Aside
from
the
reduced
green
space,
our
safety

as
a
report
points
out
with
the
garage

abutting,
the

together
with
the
proposed

to
the
menu

the

was
promoting

existing
criminal
activity,
particularly
behind

shelter,
together
with
the
ongoing

L
This
committee
risks
repeating
mistakes
outlined
in
the
Citizen
article
on
the
mall
Fiasco
almost
exactly
one
year
ago.
This
would
be
inconsistent
with
the

official
plan
in
the
provincial

statement
to
avoid

and
land-use
patterns
which
may
cause

concerns.
Members
of
the
committee.
You
have
you're
in
a
unique
position
to
consider
two
applications,
one
that
strongly
doesn't
fit
so
much
so,
in
our
view,
greens
way
clearly
fails
the
same
test.
Thank.
A
N
Good
morning
my
name
is
Andrew.
Lumsden
I've
lived
in
the
city
of
Vanier
for
over
50
years,
I
highly
endorse
the
comments
just
made
by
mr.
green
shield
concerning
the
proposed
development
at
263
Green's
way,
but
I've
come
here
today
more
to
express
my
concerns
that
we
may
have
another
Heron
gate
in
the
making,
not
as
tragic,
perhaps
but
potentially
very
disruptive
to
approximately
250
persons
now
living
in
rental
apartments
on
mark
Avenue
in
value.
N
As
we
have
just
heard,
the
owner
of
these
apartments
has
applied
to
the
city
to
rezone
from
our
for
to
r5
an
adjacent
parcel
of
land
known
as
263
Green's
way.
Mark
Avenue,
now,
houses
11
apartment
buildings
constructed
in
1951.
A
12th
building
is
located
immediately
in
front
of
the
proposed
six
storey
structure
each
of
the
twelve
seventy
year
old
two-story
rental
buildings
contains
approximately
10
two
bedroom
apartments.
N
This
is
not
to
suggest
that
the
developer
has
been
a
bad
landlord
a
few
years
back,
for
instance,
new
windows
were
in
in
recent
years.
However,
there
have
been
obvious
signs
of
neglect:
repairs
have
been
hard
to
arrange
and
the
cleaning
of
the
hallways
and
shared
laundry
rooms
is
perfunctory
at
best
on
the
outside.
The
entrance
doors
are
encased
in
attractive
wooden
frames.
N
However,
in
inadvertently
this
may
happen,
a
city
that
takes
positive
steps
to
fill
the
desperate
need
for
more
affordable
housing,
a
city
whose
number
one
consideration
in
deciding
whether
or
not
to
approve
a
zoning
or
building
application.
Carefully
examines
the
impact
on
the
availability
and
location
of
affordable
housing.
N
Finally,
I
repeat:
if
the
rezoning
of
to
63
Queensway
is
approved
and
the
new
six
story,
building
erected
the
developer
or
a
new
owner
will
surely,
sooner
or
later
move
on
to
request
a
similar
application
for
mark
Avenue.
This
will
jeopardize
the
low
rent
housing
on
this
street.
It
will
be
one
more
step
in
the
gentrification
of
Vanier
and
overgrowth,
but
only
west
of
the
venue,
parkway
east
of
the
parkway
is
quite
another
matter.
30
seconds
east
of
the
parkway
is
quite
another
matter.
N
A
O
Good
morning,
visual
memory,
Linda
fish
and
I
have
lived
at
30
mark
Avenue
for
the
past
19
years.
30
mark
is
next
to
20
mark,
which
is
currently
a
parking
lot,
but
soon
to
be
developed
into
an
apartment.
Building
I
asked
to
speak
today
to
express
my
concern
or
fears
that
the
city's
decision
to
approve
spot
zoning
at
263
Greene's
way
will
create
a
future
precedent
for
the
old
apartment
buildings
on
mark
Avenue.
Why
do
I
think
this?
Because
these
buildings
built
in
1951,
have
been
neglected
and
barely
kept
up
to
standards?
O
O
O
My
question
to
all
of
you
is:
why
is
it
necessary
to
change
the
zoning
to
our
five
in
this
beautiful
residential
area
established
as
an
air
force,
zoning
I'm
not
against
the
only
baby
at
263
Green's
way,
but
not
a
six-story
with
a
bit
of
creativity,
they
can
still
build
75
plus
apartments
with
a
knife,
or
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
express
my
concern
and
with
the
hope
that
we
will
be
heard
and
not
afeared.

P
So
just
wanted
to
follow
up
on
some
of
the
community
concerns
relating
to
the
263,
obviously
they're,
pending
pending
the
review
today,
there
would
be
further
elements
relating
to
design
and
landscaping
and
so
on
into
site
plan.
That,
notwithstanding
the
last
speaker,
asked
questions
relating
to
the
change
in
zoning
to
an
hour
five
and
what
that
would
what
that
means
relating
to
potential
risk
for
neighboring
properties
or
that
community
committee.
M
Mr.
chair
I'll
answer
the
first
part
of
that
question
in
that
it
went
to
an
hour
five
zone
because
that's
the
zone
code
that
would
allow
a
mid-rise
building.
So
from
just
a
zoning
code
perspective
we
needed
to
go
our
five
to
recognize
the
mid
rise.
Each
application
is
reviewed
on
its
own
merits
and
there's
no
proposals
before
us.
M
Right
now
on
the
balance
of
mark
Avenue
I
haven't
seen
anything
to
indicate
that
any
are
coming,
but
if
applications
that
the
community
do
fear,
those
again
will
be
reviewed
on
their
own
merit
and
I
think
just
to
further
talk
about
that.
The
difference
in
the
rationales
that
was
spoken
to
in
the
two
reports
between
twenty
mark
and
two
six
three
greens
way.
M
My
opinion
is
that
the,
although
on
the
same
corridor
in
the
same
street,
this
site
context
of
those
two
properties
is
vastly
different,
which
is
why
you
see
the
resulting
of
the
the
two
different
proposals.
So
is
there
a
risk?
I
can't
answer
that.
But
if
such
an
application
would
come
in,
it
would
be
reviewed
on
its
own
merit,
and
this
proposal
for
two
six
three
greens
rate
would
not
set
a
precedent.
It's.
P
Obviously,
we
can't
speak
too
much
railroad,
because
this
is
not
a
property
that
fits
onto
Metro,
but
for
for
that
specific
community
I
think
we
have
to
look
at
the
application
in
the
context
that
further
down
the
street,
they
didn't
come
in
and
ask
for
rezoning
to
an
r5
the
respect
in
y'all
for
zone.
So
there's
a
good
example
to
say
that
there's
stability
along
that
Street
in
the
neighborhood.
G
You
know
I,
think
they've
answered
and
was
answered
it
mark
Avenue
as
a
potential
r5
I
think
what
I
heard
is
that
you
would
you
know
on
a
preliminary
basis,
consider
it
to
be
very
different.
We
wouldn't
see
six
storeys
marching
down
mark
Avenue.
So
once
again,
why
not?
What
is
different
about
the
context
along
mark
that
would
keep
that
height
at
the
r4
height
versus
what
I
consider
to
be
kind
of
a
corner
in
an
edge
condition.
Mr.
M
Chair
the
balance,
the
balance
of
Mark
Avenue
as
an
edge
condition
to
the
existing
Rize
neighborhood,
where
it's
it's
not
fronting
on
Vanier
Parkway,
it's
not
it
doesn't
have
that
unique
sight
context
where
a
six-story
building
would
have
enough
room
to
provide
that
transition.
Like
I
said,
the
two
sites
are
very
close
to
each
other,
but
the
site
context
of
the
two
are
quite
different
in
my
opinion
and
I
think
it
would
be
a
much
more
difficult
argument
to
propose
a
six
story.
G
M
Would
be
possible,
mr.
chair,
but
only
through
law
consolidation
if
there
is
a
development
that
took
in
both
the
Montreal
Road
properties
and
the
mark,
Avenue
properties
as
one
site.
I
wouldn't
use
something
in
behind
on
mark
Avenue,
with
only
frontage
on
mark
Avenue
as
being
open
to
those
traditional
Main
Street
policies,
because
there's
no
direct
sort
of
access
to
Montreal
Road.
But.
G
I
just
to
respond
mr.
chair
Roosevelt
is
a
different
situation
in
the
planning
departments.
Opinion
based
on
the
configuration
of
the
traditional
Main
Street,
having
a
sawtooth
pattern
in,
and
we
felt
that
that's
an
Arizona
but
they're
behind
Roosevelt
as
well,
not
a
traditional
Main
Street.
It
was
to
be
sort
of
a
transition
to
that.
Allowing
for
buildings
that
started
at
6:00
to
go
down
to
four
and
to
two
stories
to
to
reflect
upon
the
the
height.
A
M
Mr.
chair
from
the
Official
Plan
designation,
the
the
property
is
located
in
the
general
urban
designation.
The
proposal
before
us
was
for
a
residential
use
building,
which
is
consistent
with
that
designation
and
the
r5
zoning
is
what
we
went
with.
It
was
based
on
the
proposal
before
us
I
just
notice.
E
A

A
C
Say:
okay,
this
isn't
those
two
developments
have
four
seven:
four:
seven
banks:
three
four:
seven:
five:
five
Bank
Street,
four:
seven:
eight,
nine
Bank
Street
and
four
eight
Poor's
Bank
Street
residential
areas
surrounding
the
Leitrim
wetlands
and
there's
a
lot
of
conflicts
with
the
wildlife
and
the
human
activity.
There
are
snapping
turtles
swimming
around
and
family
creek
turtles
getting
hit
on
roads,
turtles
nesting
and
fan
boxes;
anyways.
C
This
is
very
important
to
protect
this
area
and
that's
why
I
oppose
the
decision
for
this
development,
because
there's
just
too
much
going
on
between
the
sensitive
wildlife
here
and
all
the
new
developments
surrounding
it
with
it
in
the
middle
kind
of
like
a
donut
anyways
I
will
go
on.
Furthermore,
there.
C
This
area
is
home
to
many
at-risk
snapping
turtles
important
to
the
Leitrim
wetlands,
to
prevent
these
trails
from
wandering
in
the
development
area
and
possibly
nesting
in
the
area
offense
will
need
to
be
installed.
This
fence
will
need
to
be
surrounding
the
entire
development
area.
The
time
of
installation
we'll
need
to
take
place
at
the
Donner
Spring,
where
the
winter
snow
and
ice
is
gone,
because
these
snappers
will
start
wandering
winter
hibernation
in
the
clearing
area.
I
have
seen
this
a
nearby
area
being
cut.
C
D
C
D
Because
there's
mitigation
measures
that
can
be
taken
and
and
I'm
not
sure,
because
she's
not
here
to
tell
us
if
that
was
the
intent
of
that
amendment
or
not
what
you
wanted
to
do
with
it.
So
I
would
encourage
you
to
reach
out
to
her,
because
there
are
steps
that
she
can
take
to
prevent
that
from
happening.
Okay,.
Q
A
Further
questions
to
the
delegation
see
none.
Thank
you
very
much.
Daniel
for
coming
out
today.
I
appreciate
that.
So
on
this
item,
would
you
have
the
applicant
in
O'connor
and
that's
a
dynamic
from
Claridge?
Do
you
see
the
need
two
speakers?
Any
questions
from
the
from
the
committee
for
applicant
today.
I,
don't
see
any
questions.
Do
you
feel
you
need
to
speak
today.
C
J
Good
morning,
chair
and
members
of
the
planning
committee,
my
name
is
Erin
O'connor
I'm,
the
manager
of
land
development
with
the
regional
group
and
the
applicant
for
this
property.
This
property
includes
a
range
of
housing
types
from
Simmons
to
towns.
To
medium
lies,
it
also
includes
a
commercial
block
and
it
also
includes
parkland
and
the
area.
A
that's
on
that
plan
is
part
of
a
casita
wetland
buffer,
which
is
about
a
hundred
metres
from
the
casino.
A
E
D
D
Believe
you
mentioned
the
conservation
authorities
already
involved
as
well,
and
as
have
been
that,
like
any
public
presentation
about
the
measures
being
taken,
because
normally
we
take
quite
a
few
steps
to
make
sure
that
you
know
turtles,
aren't,
hurt
or
any
other
species
in
the
area
as
up
end
part
of
what
did
was
a
councilors
ward
meeting
or
something
I
miss
or
no.
Mr.
P
P
A
A
A
I
I
In
this
scenario,
when
these
are
presumably
approved,
well,
the
new
Official
Plan
to
these
will
sort
of
be
written
in
stone
in
a
new
official
plan.
I
take
it
that
that,
with
the
update
that
happens
likely,
these
amendments
that
are
occurring
now
would
continue
right,
along
with
that
update
of
the
Official
Plan.
E
I
That's
helpful
and
then
in
terms
of
the
this
one
in
particular,
there's
one
section:
I
did
want
to
get
some
more
insight
from
staff
on
and
that
that's
repeal
of
item
179
and
the
introducing
a
new
policy
13.
Can
you
it's
in
the
it's
in
the
details
of
document
1?
Can
you
just
go
through
the
rationale?
Why
we're
doing
that?
I
Q
Mr.
chair
and
the
current
policies
on
that
major
urban
facilities,
don't
do
not
have
any
height
limits
whatsoever.
They
only
require
a
zoning
amendment,
and
these
are
typically
major
major
developments,
hospitals,
universities
and
the
like.
There's
a
requirement
in
the
Official
Plan
that
any
of
these
facilities
locate
the
transit
transit
facilities
when
we're
doing
OPA
150
there
was.
The
emphasis
was
on
certainty
that
these
are
projects
that,
in
any
any
circumstance,
get
a
higher
degree
of
scrutiny
and
evaluation.
F
F
It
goes
on
to
speak,
about
specific
locations
and
as
a
priority
routes
and
speaks
to
transit
in
the
last
little,
while
and
and
actually
probably
over
the
past
couple
of
years,
we've
been
having
this
discussion
about
what
comes
first,
transit
or
or
development
and
I'm
just
curious
as
to
how
this
ties
in
to
does
it
mean
future
transit.
Are
we
talking
about
existing
transit?
F
It
speaks
to
major
intersections,
for
instance,
that
could
be
conducive
for
transit
priority,
but
we
know
that
at
this
point
only
one
bus
runs
down
so
I'm
just
trying
to
get
some
clarification
when
we're
speaking
about
transit.
Are
we
talking
about
current
state
we're
talking
about
future
state?
Are
we
talking
about
vision
state?
What
are
we
looking
at.
Q
C
Q
F
So,
thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
I
think
that
that's
something
that
we
definitely
need
to
be
looking
at
as
we're
amending
the
official
plan,
the
TMP,
as
well
as
any
future
developments
that
we
need
to
look
at
how
transit
is
going
to
not
just
be
in
the
future,
but
what
we
can
do
to
encourage
those
developments
to
incorporate
transit,
focused
because
I'm
being
just
selfish
I'm.
Looking
at
one
that's
coming
up
in
my
ward
I
know
we
just
passed
one
at
the
intersection
of
Hunt
Club
in
Riverside.
F
We
need
to
start
being
proactive
and
making
sure
that
we're
looking
to
the
future
but
incorporating
the
elements
now
that
will
provide
some
relief,
so
I
find
with
all
this
I
just
wanted
that
clarification,
but
now
that
I
know
that
this
is
going
to
feed
into
the
conversation
going
forward.
That
has
to
be
at
the
forefront.
Thank
you
very
much.
That's.
A
Great,
so
thank
you.
I'm
looking
around
see
no
further
questions
of
staff
on
this
item.
Item
number
8
official
plan
150
settlement
Appeals-
