INFORMATION REPORT NO. 29-01 FOR PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING OF November 15, 2001 IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PUBLIC MEETING REQUIREMENTS OF THE PLANNING ACT, R.S.O. 1990, chapter P.13 SUBJECT: Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 12/01 Diamond Swan Ventures Corporation Durham Condominium Plan 112 (South-west corner of Clements Road and Squires Beach Road) City of Pickering 1.0 PROPERTY LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION the subject properties comprise an area of 4.9 hectares in size, and are located at the south-west corner of Squires Beach Road and Clements Road (see Attachment #1 - Location Map); the subject lands currently support four one -storey multi -tenant industrial buildings (See Attachment #2 - Applicant's Submitted Plan); industrial operations surround the property on the north, east, south, and west sides. 2.0 APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL the applicant proposes to add a "Body Rub Parlour" to the range of uses permitted by current zoning on the site; the applicant is proposing to restrict the location(s) of any "Body Rub Parlour" to the internal units of the site with no exposure to the abutting public roads (See Attachment #2 - Applicant's Submitted Plan); no additional floorspace is proposed. 3.0 OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING 3.1 Durham Regional Official Plan the Durham Regional Official Plan designates the subject lands as "Employment Area", which permits a wide range of employment and employment-related uses; the employment area designation permits, among other uses, limited personal service uses; the applicant's proposal appears to comply with this designation. 3.2 Pickering Official Plan "Schedule I — Land Use Structure" to the Pickering Official Plan, designates the subject lands as "Employment Area — General Employment", which permits a wide range of employment and employment-related uses, including limited personal service uses serving the area; subject to the inclusion of appropriate zoning by-law provisions, the proposed additional use would comply with the Official Plan; 00 2 Information Report No. 29-01 Page 2 3.3 Zoning By-law - Zoning By-law 2511, as amended by By-law 5558/99, identifies the subject lands as `MC -12' — Industrial/Commercial Zone; - subject to certain provisions and specific definitions, the following uses are currently permitted on this site: • any use permitted under the "M2S" zone • dry cleaning depots • accessory retail uses • dry distribution station • club • personal service shop • commercial club • place of assembly • commercial -recreational establishments • private non-residential school • commercial school • restaurant type "A" as noted above the current zoning by-law permits the establishment of a personal service shop, however this definition explicitly excludes a body rub parlour as a permitted use; the establishment of massage clinics have been permitted throughout the City provided the staff are duly licensed to perform that service; the inclusion of a "Body Rub Parlour" use will permit the establishment of unlicensed facilities on the subject property (for detailed information on the "Body Rub Parlour" definition see section 3.4 of this report); an amendment to Zoning By-law 2511 is required to accommodate the proposed uses and provisions. 3.4 Municipal By-law Pertaining to Body Rub Parlours on October 16, 2000, City Council passed Municipal By-law No. 5764/00, which provides requirements for the licensing and regulation of body rub parlours within the City of Pickering; the by-law includes a provision which restricts the location in which body -rub parlours may be considered to operate, to the City's Industrial area, subject to a zoning by-law amendment application to permit the use (See Attachment #3 — Schedule "B" to By-law 5764/00); The definition of a Body Rub Parlour is as follows: o A "Body -rub parlour" is defined as any premises or part thereof where a body -rub is performed, offered or solicited in pursuance of a trade, calling, business or occupation, but does not include any premises or part thereof where the body -rubs performed are for the purpose of medical or therapeutic treatment and are performed or offered by persons otherwise duly qualified, licensed or registered so to do under the laws of the Province of Ontario; o A "Body Rub" includes the kneading, manipulating, rubbing, massaging, touching, or stimulating, by any means, of a person's body or part thereof but does not include medical or therapeutic treatment given by a person otherwise duly qualified, licensed or registered so to do under the laws of the Province of Ontario;
