Director, Planning & Development
Subject:
Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 13/05
Wal-Mart Canada Inc.
1899 Brock Road
Part of Lot 18, Concession 1
(40R-12591, Part 1 & 40R-19801 Parts 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, &10)
City of Pickering
Recommendation:
That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 13/05, be approved as set out in
the draft by-law attached as Appendix I to Report PD 01-06, to amend the
existing zoning on the subject lands to permit a seasonal drive-thru garden
centre for outdoor sales and display on lands being Part of Lot 18, Concession 1
(40R-12591, Part 1 & 40R-19801, Parts 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, & 10), in the City of
Pickering.
That the amending zoning by-law to implement Zoning By-law Amendment
Application A 13/05, as set out in Appendix I to Report PD 01-06 be forwarded to
City Council for enactment.
Executive Summary: The applicant requests a change to the zoning by-law to
permit a seasonal drive-thru garden centre for outdoor storage and display, between
April 1st and June 30th annually. The subject property is located on the north-east
corner of Brock Road and Pickering Parkway and currently supports The First Simcha
Shopping Centre (see Attachment #1 - Location Map & Attachment #2 - Applicant's
Submitted Plan).
The seasonal drive-thru would be associated only with the Wal-Mart store. Other stores
within the First Simcha Shopping Centre lands would also require rezoning to permit
any temporary outdoor storage and display. The drive-thru garden centre will occupy
12 to 14 parking spaces and will not affect the function of the shopping centre, as there
is a surplus of parking available on-site. The seasonal drive-thru garden centre will not
have an adverse impact on the appearance and operation of the property, traffic flow,
accessibility or surrounding properties.
It is recommended that the application be approved and that the draft by-law be
forwarded to Council for enactment.

2.0 Discussion
2.1 Use and Compatibility
2.1.1 Proposed Use conforms to the Pickering Official Plan
The applicant is proposing to introduce a seasonal drive-thru garden centre for
outdoor storage and display (April 1 to June 30 annually). The subject property is
designated "Mixed Use Areas - Specialty Retailing Node" in the Pickering Official
Plan. This designation allows the proposed use to be considered. Approval of
the rezoning would conform with the Pickering Official Plan and the Region of
Durham Official Plan.
2.1.2 The Design and Location of the Seasonal Drive-Thru Garden Centre will not
Impact Site Function
The proposed location of the seasonal drive-thru garden centre in the south-east
area of the site (see Attachment #2 - Applicant's Submitted Plan) appears to be
the best location for such a facility for the Wal-Mart store. The drive-thru
component of this garden centre is for easy pick-up and loading of bagged soil,
mulch and other garden products into Wal-Mart customer's vehicles. It does not
interfere with either the drive aisle access to Pickering Parkway or with the main
pedestrian/vehicle traffic congestion point at the front entrance of Wal-Mart. The
seasonal drive-thru garden centre will be situated in a location on the subject
property that will have a minimal visual impact, and it will be screened by a
temporary fence structure and existing landscaping along Pickering Parkway.
Detailed design matters will be addressed through the site plan review process,
and revised site plan agreement will be required.
2.1.3 On-Site Parking and Traffic Movement is Acceptable
An adequate parking area is still maintained, as the seasonal drive-thru garden
centre will be located in an area of the parking lot which is less heavily used than
other areas in the parking lot. Furthermore, this part of the parking lot does not
have direct access to the main drive aisle, which separates Wal-Mart from the
parking lot and provides primary vehicular access to Pickering Parkway.
The minimum parking space requirement in the zoning by-law is to ensure that
an adequate amount of parking spaces are provided on-site to serve the property
users. The location of the proposed seasonal drive-thru garden centre would
result in the temporary removal of 12 to 14 parking spaces for the months of
April, May and June each year. This reduction does not appear to have a
negative impact on Wal-Mart or the other businesses on the First Simcha
Shopping Centre lands, as there is a surplus of 134 parking spaces.

Zoning By-law Performance Standards
The By-law Schedule will Designate the Area where the Seasonal Drive-Thru
Garden Centre may Operate Annually
The existing zoning by-law schedule will be amended to designate an area in the
south-east portion of the property to accommodate the seasonal drive-thru
garden centre. The text of the by-law will be amended to allow for the temporary
location of a seasonal drive-thru garden centre to occupy a maximum of 14
parking spaces and operate from April 1st to June 30th of every calendar year in
conjunction with Wal-Mart only. Any other store on the First Simcha Shopping
Centre lands, which want to have temporary outdoor storage and display, must
acquire appropriate zoning.
Applicant's Comments
The applicant is aware of the content of this report, has reviewed the draft zoning
by-law, and concurs with the recommendations.
