MAYO~ WAYNE ARTHURS BRUCE J. TAYLOR AS TO F$;.; : LtiC,.~. C'. ' Exhibit "A" to By-law 3384/91 AMENDMENT NO. 71 TO THE TOWN OF PICKERING DISTRICT PLAN (WOODLANDS COMMUNITY PLAN - PART B) AMENDMENT NO. 71 TO THE TOWN OF PICKERING DISTRICT PLAN (WOODLANDS COMMUNITY PLAN - PART B) PURPOSE: The purpose of this amendment is to permit development of higher density residential uses, offices and office-support-retail uses. LOCATION: The subject lands are located at the north side of Kingston Road, east of Rougemount Drive. The lands affected by the amendment are about one (1) hectare in size. The lands are generally described as being the southerly portion of lands being Part of Lot 6, Plan 228 and Lots 166 - 170 inclusive, Plan 816, Town of Pickering. BASIS: The amendment has been determined to be appropriate for two reasons. Firstly., the existing "Commercial Node" designation permits primarily highway commercial uses such as automobile dealerships, vehicle repair shops, restaurants, hotel,s and motels. Many of these uses are adequately supplied elsewhere in the Town. Secondly, the subject lands warrant a designation that permits more intensive and prestigious uses than those currently permitted by the "Commercial Node" designation because of their prominent location on Kingston Road, certain site characteristics, and their compatibility with the surrounding residential neighbourhood. ACTUAL AMENDMENT The Town of Picketing District Plan (Woodlands Community Plan - Part B) is hereby amended by: Renumbering the existing Sections 2.H. and 2.1. as 2.I. and 2.J. respectively, and that a new Section 2.H. be added as follows: 2.H. Mixed Use III The Mixed Use III designation applies to certain lands east of the Rougemount Plaza and north of Kingston Road. This designation has been established on these lands to permit the development and integration of residential uses, office uses, and office-support-retail uses. Development on adjacent lots shall be integrated and vehicular access points shall be consolidated where possible. (a) Lands designated as Mixed Use III shall be used for residential uses, as described in Subsection (b); business and professional offices, as described in subsection (c); and office-support-retail uses, as described in Subsection (d). (b) Residential uses may be permitted on a lot up to the maximum density defined by the Residential High Density II provisions as set out in Part I of the Picketing District Plan. The exact density of development shall be established by site-specific amendment to the zoning by-law, as described in Subsection (e) below. (c) Business and professional offices, including financial institutions, may be permitted on a lot up to a maximum 0.5% floor space index per lot, but only by site-specific amendment to the zoning by-law, as described in Subsection (e) below. -2- o o (d) Office-support-retail includes such uses as personal service shops, office supply stores, pharmacies, optical stores and medical dispensaries. Office-support-retail uses shall only be pernmted in conjunction with office uses, and only up to a maximum gross leasable floor area of 25% of the total gross leasable floor area of all office and office-support-retail space established on the lot, as described in Subsection (e)below. (e) In determining whether to approve a site-specific amendment to the zoning by-law, to permit any use identified in Subsection (a) above, Council shall consider the following factors: (i) That the zoning by-law amendment is supported by a site plan showing the general location of all pro. posed buildings, structure, parking areas, access points, and landscaped areas; and by architectural elevation drawing(s), showing the massing and conceptual design of the proposed buildings and structures. These plans and drawings shall be submitted to the Town's satisfaction. (ii) That an appropriate agreement between the landowners and the Town has been, or will be, executed dealing with the provision of on-site and off-site development works such as landscaping features, parking facilities, curbing and boulevard treatment.
