WHEREAS the Taggart lands at 345 Didsbury Road are designated “Enterprise Area” but are isolated between the Kanata Centrum Regional Shopping Centre to the east, designated “Mixed Used Centre” in the OP and the “Kanata West Concept Plan” (KWCP) area to the west, also designated “Mixed Used Centre” in the OP; and,
WHEREAS the “Enterprise Area” designation policies, including 3.6.5.2 (d) allow warehousing with showrooms, a use comparable to the proposed furniture store tenants; and,
WHEREAS the subject property is a small (2.34 ha) parcel located within the northeast quadrant of the KWCP boundary and is on the border of the Community Level Retail District and Prestige Business Park designations in the Kanata West Concept Plan (KWCP) and that the boundaries of the designations are “conceptual and flexible in nature and are intended to be finalized with more detailed development applications and studies”; and, WHEREAS in 2005 Ottawa Council approved the passing of By-law 2005-258 for the Taggart and Loblaws lands to rezone the lands Community Level Shopping Centre Special Exception (CLSC-1) to allow retail uses of a certain size and the current zoning on the Taggart lands allows a comparable building in terms of size and location but with smaller tenant spaces; and, WHEREAS on 2008, as a result of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law process (By-law 2008-250), the site was zoned MC11 [415] H (34) – Mixed-Use Centre, Subzone 11, Urban Exception 415 to permit retail uses, hotel, car wash and gas bar and restricts each permitted non-residential use to be limited to a total gross leasable floor area of 1,000 m²;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT Planning Committee recommend approval of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment to revise the exception to permit a non-residential use to have a total gross leasable floor area of up to 3,600 m²; and that relevant modifications be made to OPA 150;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Planning Committee recommends waiving the rules and procedures to allow the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment to be considered at the next available City Council agenda, being July 9th, 2014; and That there be no further notice pursuant to Section 34 (17) of the Planning Act.
