Notice of Complete Application for Official Plan Amendments
and
Notice of Public Meeting Concerning the Proposed Plans of Subdivision
and Official Plan Amendments
File Nos. 15T-21007 (OPA-03-21) and 15T-21005 (OPA-04-21)
Take notice that the Corporation of the County of Peterborough has received application No. 15T-21007 (CSU Developments) and application No. 15T-21005 (Vargas Properties) for approval of Plans of Subdivision under Section 51 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended. The Corporation of the Township of Cavan Monaghan has also received applications for Official Plan Amendments for these proposed subdivisions under Section 17(15) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended. The applications have been assigned file numbers Official Plan Amendments OPA-03-21 and OPA-04-21 respectively. Both applications were assigned file numbers Zoning By-law Amendments ZBA-09-21 and ZBA-10-21 respectively, which are no longer being processed as they have approved through Minister’s Zoning Order (Ontario Regulation 250/22), dated April 1, 2022.
The Plans of Subdivision and Official Plan Amendments apply to lands located in Part of Lots 11, Concession 5 (CSU) and Part of Lot 13, Concession 5 (Vargas) of the Cavan Ward. The Key Map below indicates the location of the subject lands to the above-noted Applications.
The purpose of this Notice is to inform the public of the nature of the Applications, invite public input, advise how to provide comments on the Applications, and to advise the public of future notification and appeal rights. Please note that the County of Peterborough is the approval authority for the Plans of Subdivision and the Official Plan Amendment. As noted earlier, previously, the Zoning By-law Amendments for these applications were approved through Minister’s Zoning Order (Ontario Regulation 250/22) filed on April 1, 2022.
Purpose and Effect of the Applications
Subdivision Application 15T-21007 (OPA-03-21) proposes approval of 669 residential units in the form of 148 townhouse units; 371 single detached dwellings; and 150 residential units within a 4-storey building. The proposed development will include 13 internal roads, contain parkland and trails as well as 2 stormwater management pond blocks. This application applies to 49.2 hectares (121.6 acres) of land at 787 and 825 Fallis Line.
Subdivision Application 15T-21005 (OPA-04-21) proposes approval of 176 residential units in the form of 48 townhouse units; and 128 single detached dwellings along with a commercial mixed use block. The proposed development will include 4 internal roads, contain parkland and trails as well as a stormwater management pond block. This application applies to 29.48 hectares (72.8 acres) of land at southeast corner of Fallis Line and County Road 10.
Through the issuing of Minister’s Zoning Order (Ontario Regulation 250/22) on April 1, 2022, the developable portions of the subject lands (both properties) are zoned Commercial/Mixed Use and Community Zone. The Commercial/Mixed Use Zone permits a wide range of uses permitted in the Community Commercial (C5) Zone with some exceptions. The Community Zone permits the uses as permitted in the Urban Residential One (UR-1) andUrban Residential Two (UR-2) zone as well as Open Space (OS) uses. The Plan of Subdivision Applications have been revised to comply with the zoning designations delineated in the Minister’s Zoning Order (MZO).
The proposed Official Plan Amendments seek to coordinate the Official Plan designations on the subject lands to the zoning designations outlined in the MZO. For the CSU subject lands, the OPA proposes to expand the Millbrook Settlement Area boundary by 31 hectares (76.6 acres) and change that portion of the current OP designation from Agricultural to Residential to accommodate the proposed development. The current portions of the lands designated Natural Linkage Area and Natural Core will remain unchanged through the proposed OPA.
The CSU proposed development also seeks to connect to municipal water and wastewater when there is sufficient capacity to expand and service this portion of the subject lands. For wastewater, if there is not sufficient available treatment capacity in the existing Water Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTTP), a second treatment facility is being proposed on the subject site, which would be phased to service future development. The Township has retained a consultant that is currently conducting a Master Servicing Study which will inform current and future capacity for water and wastewater for Millbrook including this proposed development. The study is to be completed later this year, this part of the proposed development would not proceed until water and wastewater allocation is available.
The proposed Official Plan Amendment for the Vargas subject lands would result in part of the subject lands currently designated Agricultural being brought into the Millbrook Settlement Area boundary and re-designated as residential. In addition, the current Institutional Special Policy Area #1 will be re-designated to residential, as those lands are no longer required for the WTTP. The current portions of the subject lands designated Natural Linkage Area and Natural Core will remain unchanged. The Community Commercial and Residential designations will be revised to reflect Commercial/Mixed Use and Community Zones consistent with the approved MZO.
For this application, it is anticipated that there is sufficient water and wastewater capacity in the WTTP to service this development. The previously identified Master Servicing Study is underway and will confirm servicing.
