To change the land use designation of a portion of PID 45086980 from Industrial Commercial (IC) Designation to Medium Density Residential Neighbourhood (MR) Designation and rezone the same portion of PID 45086980 from Industrial Commercial (IC) Zone to the Townhouse (R2-T) Zone. The application also requests changes to the stacked townhouse provisions. The purpose of the application is to allow for the construction of four, 8-unit stacked townhouse buildings, to create affordable housing for future Shaw Brick employees and their families.

Subject Property

The subject site is shown on the map to the right and is identified as a portion of PID 45086980, which is the location of the Shaw Brick Plant. The total area of the subject property is 44.1 hectares but the area of land being redesignated and rezoned is approximately 1 hectare (2.6 acres). The property is designated and zoned Industrial Commercial (IC) Zone. To the north and east are Village Core (VC) Zoned lands and to the west is the remainder of the brick plant, which is zoned Industrial Commercial (IC). Land uses surrounding the subject site include the Anglican Church, the Lantz pool, commercial land uses, and residential uses. The area of land to be developed has approximately 46 m of frontage on Church Street.

Details

The purpose of this application is to amend the Municipal Planning Strategy (MPS) and Land Use Bylaw (LUB) to allow for the development of four, 8-unit stacked townhouse buildings. In addition to the mapping amendments, LUB text amendments are required in order to allow stacked townhouses to be used in a cluster townhouse format. The aim of the application is to accommodate affordable housing intended for workers of the Shaw Brick Plant. The driveway for the proposed development would be located off of Church Street, which is owned by the Province. Parking for the townhouse units is proposed to be located in a common parking area in the centre of the development. The proposed location of the development is currently treed and is not being used as part of the brick plant. If the Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use Bylaw mapping application is approved, the applicant is not required to develop the site as shown on the concept plan. However, the applicant would be restricted by the size and frontage of the land and by requirements of the LUB.
