I PLANNING COMMUNITY I - BROCK INDUSTRIAL AREA 1 2. GOALS a) To promote industrial development consistent with the current goals of the municipality and the needs of the community. b) To ensure the preservation of suitably located land for industrial uses. c) To provide a broad range of industrial uses and to ensure, by means of proper planning, the compatibility of these uses with one another and with other uses in the area. d) To provide a suitable environment for industrial activity and its development. e) To provide adequate access from major trans- portation arteries to the Brock Industrial Area. f) To minimize undesirable effects, such as noise, fumes, dust, vibration, and unsightly open storage. g) To protect and to make accessible the natural environment. LANA USE POLICIES The policies set forth in this Community Plan for the Industrial Area further specify and refine policies contained in the Pickering District Plan. The proposed land use components and general road network are shown on Schedule I-A. Reference should be made to Schedule I-A in reading the following land use policies. The boundaries are approximate only. a) Principles Two basic principles have been employed in developing the land use policies. i) Land uses are assigned to broad categories according to three basic criteria-- use, architectural and landscaping treatment, and amount of required open storage. The uses are arranged hierarchically with the most carefully controlled industries fronting Bayly Street and occupying the periphery of the area and the least controlled industries occupying the interior of the area. In some instances this principle is modified to accomodate special Brock -z - industrial requirements such as access to rail sidings. ii) Associated Industrial Uses are concentrated in large clusters which are located near points of convenient traffic access. b) General Policies i) Buffering shall be required to ensure the visual compatibility of uses and to create a safe environment. ii) Severances shall be discouraged, unless the resulting parcels are developed as parts of a co-ordinated scheme. A. Restricted Light Industrial Uses in these areas shall be limited to those which are appropriate to visible frontages of arterial roads and location adjacent to residential and open space areas by reason of their operations and appearance. These shall be further subject to high performance standards to eliminate or significantly reduce nuisance in the form of noise, dust, colour, smoke, fumes, vibration and exposed outside storage and shall in- clude special requirements for siting, landscaping, parking, external building materials and design, exterior lighting and signs. Although industries shall be the principal use in these areas, limited associated Indus- trial Facilities in the form of professional and business offices, which directly serve the Brock Industrial Area or the employees therei», shall be permitted. D. Light Industrial. Uses in these areas shall be similar to those in "A" above but subject to performance standards less restrictive relating to noise and vibration, landscaping, external building materials and design, exterior lighting and signs. In determining per- formance standards the proximity of such areas to restricted light industrial, residential and open space areas shall be taken into consideration. C. Medium Industrial Uses in these areas shall be industrial uses re- quiring limited outdoor storage areas provided they are of minimal detriment to adjacent uses from an aesthetic and physical point of view. D. Heavy Industrial Uses in these areas, including some that may generate obnoxious characteristics such as noise odour, smoke, fumes or vibration or incorporate extensive outside storage as part of their normal operations, shall be permitted only subject to 3 - performance standards that limit such obnoxious characteristics to such an extent that the imm_.=diate industrial area, the general urban environment and public health are not detrimentally affected. F. Associated Industrial Facilities and Other Use: a) Uses permitted in all these areas shall irclude: i) Restricted Light industrial uses. ii) Combined Industrial-Commercial uses which involve commercial uses as an integral part of their function, such as building supply and home improvement centres, printinc shops and other operations which combine sales to the general public with wholesale supply to trades and retail outlets; and iii) Associated Industrial Facilities in tle form of business and professional off.ces, which directly serve the Brock Industrial Area or the employees therein. b) Uses permitted in areas, labelled "I" only, include: i) Associated Industrial Facilities, which directly serve the Brock. Industrial Area or the employees therein, such as restaurants and goods equipment and vehicle rental services. ii) Private clubs, union halls, veteri.na.y clinics and other similar uses that r-re appropriately located in an industrial. area. c) No uses that will interfere with the commercial activities of any Central Area shall be permitted. d) Restaurants shall be limited to a maximum percentage of the total floor space on each lot. The percentage shall be established in the restricted area (Zoning) by-law(::). e) The maximum percentage of floor space devoted to ancillary sales by a user shall be established in the restricted area (Zoning) by-law(s). F. Combined Transportation and Associated Industrial Facilities This special use category applies to the land which is bounded by Bayly Street, Liverpool Road., the Canadian National Railway, and the current eastern boundary of the GO Station. The area must be - 4 - developed according to a comprehensive plan as a transportation complex. Passenger support facilities, such as coffee shops and newstands may be included. G. Residential The residential land on the east side of Sandy Beach Road and north of the open space area shall remain a Low Density II residential area. Elsewhere, as indicated on Schedule I-A, current residential uses shall be replaced eventually by more appro- priate uses. H. Utilities Utilities shall be developed according to the provisions of Part I of the Pickering District Plan and the Durham Regional Official Plan. I. Community Services and Facilities The existing fire hall on Bayly Street, the Don Beer Arena, and the Art Thompson Arena shall continue in their current uses. J. Parks and Open Space a) The passive conservation par};. and the active neighbour- hood park on Sandy Beach Road shall continue in their present uses. b) A major, passive conservation park shall be developed at the mouth of Duffins Creek. c) Development of an open space corridor along the lakefront, that would extend westward from the Duffins Creek Conservation Park to the eastern boundary of the Pickering Water supply plant (The Sherman Scott Water Treatment Plant), shall be encouraged. 3. ROAD; AND ACCESS a) Brock Road, Squires Beach Road and Church Street are recognized as major north-south routes. Bayly Street is recognized as a major east-west route. b) In order to relieve possible traffic congestion, a mid-block route between Bayly Street and Montgomery Park Road will be constructed. It shall connect Sandy Beach Road to Clements Road in Ajax via Dillingham Road. - 5 - c) Industrial traffic shall be discouraged along Sandy Beach Road south of the Mid-block route in order to avoid interference with the existing park and residences. d) Development of a scenic drive from the western boundary of the area to Duf£ins Creek Conservation Park shall be encouraged by means of landscaping control. It shall proceed along Sandy Beach Road south of the Mid-block route (Clements Road) and along Montgomery Park and McKay Roads. The drive may be extended by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority along the north-west portion of Duffing Creek Conservation Park to the proposed Clements Road in Ajax. e) The section of Brock Road presently closed south of Montgomery Park Road may be re-opened to provide public access to the open space corridor along the Lakefront. f) Industrial traffic shall be discouraged along the scenic drive. g) Development of pedestrian sidewalks shall be encouraged along major traffic routes to ensure convenient access to transit stops and service areas. h) Sandy Beach Road and Squires Beach Road may eventually be extended northward across the MacDonald--Cartier Freeway by means of overpaz?.es.
