Subject:
Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 17/05
Lakeland Associates Ltd. on behalf of Christine Ward
3325 Highway 7, Hamlet of Kinsale
(North Part of Lot 2, Concession 5)
City of Pickering
Recommendation:
1. That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 17/05, submitted by Lakeland
Associates Ltd. on behalf of Christine Ward, to permit a dog daycare and
boarding facility with associated retailing, on lands being North Part of Lot 2,
Concession 5, City of Pickering, be APPROVED as a temporary use for a period
of three years, subject to conditions outlined in Appendix I to Report PO 34-06.
Executive Summary: The applicant proposes to amend the current zoning on the
northern portion of the subject property to permit a dog daycare and boarding facility
with associated retailing. The property is located on the south side of Highway 7, east
of Audley Road, and is partially within the Hamlet of Kinsale (see Location Map,
Attachment #1 ).
The dog daycare and boarding facility is a non-crating facility in which the dogs will be free
to play outdoors during the day within a fenced exercise area in the rear yard, and all
dogs will be boarded overnight within an accessory structure (see Attachment #2 -
Applicant's Submitted Plan). The business owner will reside within the existing dwelling
on the property and intends to convert the attached garage to accommodate a retail use
accessory to the dog daycare and boarding facility use.
It is recommended that the use be permitted on a temporary basis through a temporary
use by-law in order to monitor the operation and fully assess any potential impacts the
use may have on surrounding properties. Prior to an implementing temporary use
zoning by-law being forwarded to Council for consideration, further studies are required
to address noise attenuation measures and the structural integrity of the existing
accessory structure on-site. Further, the applicant will be required to enter into a Site
Plan Agreement with the City.
Should the use demonstrate its ability to operate over the three year time period without
disruption to the community, permanent zoning could then be considered by Council.
It is recommended that this application be approved subject to the conditions outlined in
Appendix I.

2.0 Discussion
Location and ZoninQ
Lakeland Associates on behalf of Christine Ward, proposes to amend the existing
zoning by-law to permit the establishment of a dog daycare and boarding facility
with an accessory retail use on the property known as 3325 Highway 7. The
property is located on the south side of Highway 7, east of Audley Road and is
approximately 4.0 hectares in size (see Location Map, Attachment # 1). The
property supports an existing detached dwelling and accessory structure, and is
currently dual zoned "CLR8" - Cluster Residential Zone on the northern portion, as
amended by By-law 2623/87, and "A" - Rural Agricultural Zone on the remaining
southern portion, as zoned by By-law 3037. The applicant proposes to amend the
"CLR8" zoning on the northern portion of the property (approximately
0.64 hectares), as this portion of the property is contained within the boundary of
the Hamlet of Kinsale. The zoning on the remaining southern portion of the
property will not be amended as part of this application as this portion is not
contained within the Hamlet boundary, is traversed by a tributary of the
Lynde Creek, and is within the Greenbelt Plan (see Official Plan and By-law 3037
Information, Attachment #3). The property is surrounded by existing residential
and agricultural uses.
2.1 The proposed use complies with the rural settlement policies of the City's
Official Plan.
The northern portion of the subject property is designated Rural Settlements -
Rural Hamlets and Hamlet Residential within the Kinsale Settlement Area. The
policies for the Kinsale Settlement Area encourage opportunities for enhancing
Kinsale through general or site-specific zoning that permits arts and craft studios,
workshops and small-scale commercial enterprises, provided the historic
character of the village and the interests of the neighbouring residents are
respected. The policies of the Pickering Official Plan also encourage a vibrant
rural economy with a wide range of rural uses and activities.
The introduction of a dog daycare and boarding facility on the northern portion of
the subject property is considered an appropriate use of land and meets the
objectives of the Pickering Official Plan for the rural area.
2.2 The proposed use is a non-crating facility which will provide for the
daytime care and overnight boarding of dogs.
The proposed dog daycare and boarding facility is currently operating within
Whitby on lands leased from the Central Lake Ontario Conversation Authority
(CLOCA), and is known as 'Corinna the Ooggie Minder'. As the lease with
CLOCA is expiring, the owner is interested in relocating the business to
Pickering. Based on the experience of the existing operation, the business owner
submitted a Business Operations Plan outlining the proposed operation of the
facility once it is relocated to the subject property.
Ü 3 0 Report PO 34-06 Date: May 23, 2006
Subject: Lakeland Associates Ltd. on behalf of C. Ward (A 17/05) Page 5
The proposed facility will provide for the daytime care of dogs in which a dog may
be dropped off and picked up by their owner within the same day, and will also
provide for the regular boarding of dogs in which the dogs may stay for an
extended period of time and are housed on-site. The facility has set hours of
operation in which the dogs can only be dropped off in the morning and picked up
in the evening. All dogs are assessed prior to the initial stay to ensure that the
dog is social, friendly and well behaved.
The proposed boarding facility is different from a kennel in that it is a non-crating
facility. The dogs will be free to play outdoors during the day within a fenced
exercise area or within the accessory structure on-site. All dogs will be housed
within the accessory structure at night until morning.
The owner of the business has indicated that the noise generated from the dogs
is typically minimal as the dogs are kept busy and well exercised throughout the
day and are never isolated or crated.
In addition to the dog daycare and boarding facility, the business owner intends
to convert the existing attached garage to accommodate an accessory retail use.
Typically, the proposed retailing component would include the sale of pet toys,
photos of the dogs, collectibles and other souvenirs related to the dog daycare
and boarding business.
2.3 Prior to an implementing by-law being forwarded to Council, further studies
are required to address noise attenuation measures and the structural
integrity of the existing accessory structure.
Although minimal noise is anticipated from this use as it is a non-crating facility,
further investigation is required to determine what, if any, noise attenuation
measures may be required to ensure any possible noise generated by the dogs
at night will not effect surrounding properties. An acoustical report from a
qualified engineer will be required to be prepared and submitted for approval.
The required noise report must demonstrate what measures will be taken to
ensure the existing accessory structure, or any future structures in which the
dogs are to be housed, will appropriately attenuate noise generated from the
operation of the facility. Oepending on the complexity or the recommendations of
the acoustical report, the City may require a peer review of the report at the cost
of the applicant. The applicant will be required to enter into an appropriate Site
Plan Agreement with the City through which the recommendations of the noise
report will be implemented.
In addition, if the owner o(the business intends to use the existing accessory
structure on-site for the boarding of the dogs, a report from a structural engineer
will be required to ensure that the existing building is structurally sound and does
not pose a risk to the dogs. Any requirements or recommendations proposed
through the report will also be implemented through the Site Plan Agreement
registered on title.

The applicant has expressed a desire to have Council's endorsement of the
proposed use prior to additional monies being spent on the required reports and
site plan application. As such, an implementing by-law has not been prepared at
this time and will be forwarded to Council when the required conditions outlined
in Appendix I to this report are fulfilled.
2.4 A temporary use by-law is considered an appropriate method to monitor
the proposed use for a period of three years, and the functioning of the site
will be addressed through the site plan process.
As this is the first facility of this nature within Pickering and considering the
location of the facility within the Hamlet of Kinsale, is it recommended that a
temporary use by-law be established in order to monitor the operation and
assess any unknown impacts on surrounding lands.
A three year by-law term (maximum term for a temporary use under the Planning
Act) is recommended. At the end of the term, Council may consider an application
to extend the use for a further temporary period up to three years, or may consider
an application to zone the lands for this purpose on a permanent basis.
The temporary use by-law established for the dog daycare and boarding facility
and accessory retail uses shall include provisions which limit the number of dogs
permitted on-site at anyone time to a maximum of 30, establish a maximum
gross floor area of 50 square metres for an accessory retail use, and establish
appropriate parking requirements. In addition, a minimum 10 metre setback for
the outdoor exercise area from the abutting properties will be established in order
to address the concerns raised by the abutting property owner to the west.
The functioning of the site, specifically the requirements of the Ministry of
Transportation, parking, signage and the appropriate location of an outdoor
exercise area will be further reviewed and addressed through the site plan
process.
The recommended zoning provisions and requirements to be contained within
any implementing temporary use by-law are outlined in Appendix I to this report.
3.0 Applicant's Comments
The applicant is aware of the content of this report and agrees tö the temporary
use zoning for a three year period.

7:00 P.M.
3. Chris Ward, Business Manager, advised that this is a facility where dogs can
run loose and not be crated unless requested by their owners. Oogs will
socialize with other dogs, which makes for a happier, healthier animal. An
orientation period occurs prior to the dog staying at this facility where the dog
meets other dogs to see it's comfort level.
4. Jeff Lalonde, shop owner in Kinsale, advised that this is a much-needed facility.
It provides dog owners with a comfort level knowing their dog is well cared for
and makes for a happier dog.
5. Rakesh Gupta, advised that he is purchasing property abutting the west side of
the property in question and is concerned with the possible noise. He
requested that consideration be given to moving the fenced in area to the east
of the barn rather than the west.

Dear Madam:
Subject:
Zoning By-law Amendment Application A-17/05
Christine WardlLakeland Associates Ltd.
3325 Highway No.7
Part Lot 02, Concession 05
City of Pickering
Authority File No.: A17/05, CLOCA IMS No.: PZOG1474
Purpose of Application:
To amend the zoning of the subject property to permit a dog daycare and boarding facility with
associated specialty retailing as additional uses.
Authority staff has reviewed the subject application, and while the property is crossed by a
tributary of Lynde Creek with it's associated flood plain (see attached airphoto), the proposed
use is shown as being situated closer to Highway 7 and well removed from the hazard lands.
Therefore we have no objections to the application.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment in this matter.
What we do on the land is mirrored in the water

comments
Understanding the applicant may want to change the
existing single family residential dwelling and existing barn
into a dog daycare, boarding facility and associated
speciality retailing area, it may facilitate a review from a
professional architect/engineer or both to address a
··change of use" under the requirements/provisions of the
Ontario Building Code.
Electrical Inspections; Given the age of the building, the
Pickering Fire Service requests that a complete inspection
be conducted on the main electrical panel and wiring detail
of the structures on the property.
Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning systems; As above,
the Pickering Fire Service requests that the services of a
qualified contractor be obtained to conduct a - complete
inspection on the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning
systems to ensure they are working as not to create a
hazard for the occupants of the buildings.
Obtain the services of a structural engineer to ensure that
the outbuilding/barn is structurally sound prior to
occupancy.
