(c)

it being noted that the applicant acknowledges the existence of a Class 111 industrial operation ongoing within 300 metres of the proposed office use, and that any office use will not affect the future industrial expansions of Kelcoatings Inc./Oakside Chemicals/ER Kelly Ltd. at 3200 White Oak Road as office uses are deemed not to be a sensitive land use;

it being pointed out that at the public participation meeting associated with this matter, the following individuals made an oral submission in connection therewith:

J. Sennema, Z-Group - representing the applicant and expressing support for the staff recommendation, noting the applicant has indicated they would locate their building as far away as possible from the abutting industrial use as they understood that was the primary concern of Kelcoatings Limited and Oakside Chemical Limted, but now understand there is an issue with respect to where office space should be located in the City; further noting this is a small scale quasi-institutional use that is perfect for the area and can accommodate any future expansion, and that the applicant would be amenable to including a provision in the by-law to ensure there is no future expansion within the 300 meter buffer zone.

P. Mack, representing the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario and indicating their support for the staff recommendation, noting this is an ideal location for their facility given its close proximity to the 401 and 402 as many of its members will come from out of town to various workshops.

S. Ross, Patton, Cormier and Associates - representing Kelcoatings and Oakside Chemica1slE.R. Kelly Limited and noting that the Ontario Municipal Board's findings on this matter noted that its decision was not an invitation for a new application and the location does not meet the criteria for an office land use; further noting that there is no guarantee that the current applicant

P C - 7

will remain in this location as the permanent tenant.

S. Kelly, President, Kelcoatings and E.E. Kelly - providing additional information with respect to the industrial nature of the existing businesses and expressing opposition to allowing an office use within the 300 metre buffer zone as it would set a precedent to allow for further uses of this type which will cause additional difficulties for his business in the future, and requesting that this application be refused so that he can carry on his primary business rather than attend to continuing planning matters,

W. Pol, 181 Group - representing Kelcoatings Limited and Oakside Chemical Limited and requesting refusal of the application for the reasons outlined in his communication dated June 14, 2007 and included in the Planning Committee added agenda.

12. (16,37)That, on the recommendation of the General Manager of Planning and Development, with respect to the application of David Rawson relating to the property located at 2083 Wharncliffe Road South, the attached proposed by-law BE INTRODUCED at the Municipal Council meeting on June 25,2007 to amend Zoning By-law No. Z.-l, in conformity with the Official Plan, to change the zoning of the subject lands FROM a Holding Arterial Commercial (h-17.ACI) Zone TO a Holding Arterial Commercial Special Provision (h--.h-l7,ACI (3)) Zone to permit medical/dental offices and a wellness centre with a maximum of 4 dental suites (wet and/or dry service chairs) with a holding provision for urban design;

it being noted that a higher level of urban design is to be applied to the site which will maintain the “village-like’’ streetscape along the north side of Wharncliffe Road and an attempt will be made to reducehelocate the amount of parking area proposed in the front yard and thereby increase the amount of landscaped open space fronting onto Wharncliffe Road;

it being noted the removal of the holding provision for urban design will be removed as soon as possible at a future meeting of the Planning Committee:


L. Kirkness, Kirkness Consulting Ltd. - representing the applicant and noting that Dr. Rawson has been looking for an alternate site for his practice and retained Boss Engineering to determine the sewage effluent load for the proposed use which would be comparable to a 3 or 4 bedroom house, noting 6 suites would be preferable but that 4 could be supported, that the prohibition of any parking in the front area of the site would pose difficulties should the applicant determine it is more economically feasible to retain the existing house rather than construct a new building, that the setback of existing homes on this section of Whamclie Road South is significant and that some parking at the front of the subject site would not create issues for the surrounding residents: further noting the applicant would be supportive of the original planning staff report including a holding provision for urban design but that if the replacement staff recommendation included in the Planning Committee added agenda was adopted, an amendment to the zoning by-law be made to include a notation that front yard parking be prohibited only if a new building was constructed.

1. Thompson, 2123 Wharncliffe Road South - expressing concern with respect to the proper disposal of waste from the dental practice and the use of a septic system for this property.

B. Bain, Lerners - representing the applicants as well as the future owners of the property, the owners of Matthews Animal Hospital, and expressing support for the staff recommendation; noting that there will be minimal noise impact on the neighbourhood as there will be no overnight boarding or outdoor kennels; further noting the College of Veterinarians has strict regulations with respect to animal disposal, that the hours of operation would generally be from 8:OO a.m. to 6:OO p.m. weekdays and Saturday mornings, and that any concerns with respect to additional flow from the site, if any, would be mitigated through approval from the Environmental and Engineering Services Department.

P. Rowland, 61 Bridlington Road - expressing opposition to the application and indicating the veterinary hospital should be located in a commercial area and concern that approval of the application could set a precedent for the neighbourhood.

it being pointed out that at the public participation meeting associated with this matter, the following individual made an oral submission in connection therewith:

V. M’Garry, Valerie M’Gany Law Office - indicating that she had a productive meeting with Planning staff but that she still had a number of concerns about the proposed by-law amendment, including the documentation to be used to indicate ownership of a vehicle, that allowances should be made for emergency situations such as changing a flat tire outside of the hours of 8:OO a.m. and 8:OO p.m. when minor repairs are to be permitted, that six consecutive days for a minor repair seems excessive and should be decreased, that under Section 2, Definitions, tire changing should be added to allow for the seasonal changing of tires, as well as windshield washer replacement; noting that Section 34, Definitions should also be amended to replace the phrase “minor running repairs” with “minor motor vehicle service and repair“.

24. (27,38)That the application submitted by Sifton Properties relating to the property located at 544 Riverside Drive BE REFUSED and the property BE MAINTAINED as an Open Space Zone based upon the following rationale:

(2007-Dl 1-05)

Sifton

544 Riverside Drive

Official Plan criteria is not met in several sections of 5.2, Office Areas including 5.2.1, Function, 5.2.3, Location Criteria, 5.2.4, Scale of Development and 5.2.6, where only 2 of 7 criteria are met;

Section 3.1.5 of the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement which notes a 2 zone concept for flood plain development may be approved but does not have to be approved, and consideration should be given to current studies by Dr. Slobodan Simonovic of the Institute of Catastrophic Loss Reduction of the University of Western Ontario relating to flood plain and climate change given the implications for this site;

the Land Needs Background Study prepared by Planning and Development staff indicates there is no shortage of commercial use lands in the City of the London both currently and in the foreseeable future;

the Parks and Recreation Master Plan recommended retention of valley lands as a key strategy; and

there must be a balance between public and private interests; it being noted there has been an unprecedented amount of public interest in this application;


C. Wiebe, MHBC Planning - representing the applicant and expressing opposition to the staff recommendation as outlined in the attached communication; noting the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority reviewed the flood plain study and can verify its authenticity, and that the traffic study was conducted by a qualified, certified company whose findings were concurred in by the City’s Traffic Division.

P. Masschelein, Sifton Properties Limited - representing the applicant and noting that this an opportunity for Sifton to develop an innovative, signature building on a piece of land that acts as a gateway but that limiting the

PC- 14

maximum floor area to 2000 square meters also limits the building design in such a way that innovation is not possible; further noting that under Bill 57, the City has the ability to control many factors during site plan, and that if Sifton’s original application was approved, an innovative design could be realized.

M. Jarabek, representing the Oakridge Riverside Community Association, 421 Palmtree Avenue - expressing thanks to the public for their show of support during this process and indicating it is not only the residents of Oakridge that oppose this application, but many other parts of the City are represented, that no one is here to criticize individuals but there is an interest in working together to save this corridor, noting the following concerns with respect to the application:

(a) traffic safety - the traffic study conducted by Paradigm notes approximately 100 cars will be accessing the site daily, which should cause concern given the arterial roads here are already at capacity;

(b) flood plain -the studies being conducted by Dr. Slobodan Simonovic of the Institute of Catastrophic Loss Reduction at the University of Western Ontario note there are significant climate changes occurring and that flood plain policies will be impacted in the future;

(c) consistency - there is an expectation of consistency in the pre- consultation process from Planning staff, and that while most general members of the public were advised that this site was always to remain an open space zone different information was provided to Sifton Properties Limited;

(d) proximity to the Thames River - there appears to be no other developments of this nature in such close proximity to the Thames River; and

(e) commercial land vacancy - there is, as evidenced by the recent Planning staff report on the Land Needs Study, significant commercial land vacancy both now and in the future, and accordingly there is no reason to re-zone this property from open space to additional commercial.

R. Dickinson, 11 18 St. Anthony Road - representing the Oakridge Hazelton Ratepayers’ Association and the Urban League and expressing opposition ‘to the application indicating that when Parks staff reviewed a checklist several years ago to determine whether this property should be purchased by the City, a review of the Parks and Recreation Master Plan was not included, which would have indicated the importance of not allowing commercial development on this property and led to insufficient information being provided to the Municipal Council for the decision making process and also for any decision relating to the implementation of an interim control by- law relating to the flood plain, and requesting that one be implemented now to protect the Thames Corridor and this property in particular.

D. Bowring, 711-521 Riverside Drive - representing approximately 96 residents at 521 Riverside Drive and expressing opposition to the application, noting concerns with respect to traffic safety, property values, development within a flood fringe and the resulting impacts should global warming continue, increasing parking by non-residents in the south lot of their building, that Planning staff indicated this site would remain open space and that ordinary citizens do not have the resources to further investigate this information as the applicant could and that this is not an appropriate application given the applicant’s history in the community.

J. Sayer-White, 15-519 Riverside Drive - representing the Board of Directors of 519 Riverside Drive and noting not one person at this location has indicated support for the application, that the City must start to review long term strategies for the community, that this will not bring the City or

PC-15

Sifton great profits, that the downtown has significant office vacancies or that the areas to the north of this site at Oxford Street West and Wonderland Road would benefit from redevelopment in numerous locations and that consideration needs to be given to an esthetic plan for the Thames Corridor.

R. Leduc, 113 Staghorn Crescent - expressing opposition and concern that approval of this application will set a precedent across the City and would give the perspective that the City is building offices on parkland.

G. Brown - 605-760 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting this site is not needed for offices when there are so many vacancies at Westmount Mall to the south, that grass is a natural water filter and that paving the site would not be beneficial to the environment; further noting there is a significant amount of wildlife on the site currently.

J. McGrotty, 299 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting she participated in the distribution of flyers to the public at the comer of Wonderland Road South and Riverside Drive and that there was significant support from the public, as well as concerns about traffic safety, that some parks are over-utilized but that this area could be better utilized given its location.

A. Hopkins, 928 Springbank Drive - noting the City worked hard to try to save Reservoir Hill from development, and inquiring as to why studies for various aspects of applications are not done by the City.

H. Truemner, 67 Hazelton Grove - expressing opposition and noting the importance of tree preservation.

R. Heard, 519 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and concern that an Official Plan is not useful if its not adhered to.

G. McGinn-McTeer, 62 Jennifer Gardens - expressing opposition and noting this is not just a neighbourhood issue.

P. Wain, 626 Santa Monica Road - expressing opposition and noting the construction of an apartment building on the end of Springbank Park and the corner of Commissioners Road West was an error in judgement that should not be repeated.

W. Wyatt, 435 Riverside Drive -expressing opposition to the application.

S. Hobson, 304-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and asking that the site remain open space.

H. Halaribi, 521 Riverside Drive -expressing opposition to the application.

P. Lockhart, 311-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and concerns with respect to access and traffic safety; noting that Sifton knew this was open space when they purchased the land so the City should be able to refuse the application and keep it as open space.

P. Evans, 608-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting this is not a “not in my backyard” issue, but that the City must take a stand to maintain the heritage river, much as the city of Buffalo has done.

M. Kerr, 162 Elworthy Avenue- expressing opposition and noting the Thames River Corridor is a natural heritage landscape to be maintained and designated as such.

J. Volkhart, 707-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting a bus stop is located in front of their building and pedestrians trying to reach it from the proposed development will face serious safety hazards.

PC-16

M. A. Morgan, 305-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition to the application and concern that a precedent will be set for commercial development along a heritage river; noting that profits should not be put ahead of the benefits of a healthy community, which parkland contributes to.

J. Coleman, 521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting there is already a lot of vacant office space in the City.

G. Cooper, 490 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition, noting that it is difficult already to exit and enter his driveway during peak hours of travel due to existing traffic volumes; further noting that flooding during 2000 was significant enough to reach the Civitan Club on Riverside Drive, and should more rain have fallen, Riverside Drive could have easily been flooded, and that this should be given consideration when applications are received in flood plain areas.

B. Hill, 700 Osgoode Drive - expressing opposition and noting the City should have consideration for future generations when considering applications that will have future implications.

R. Stevenson, 521 Riverside Drive - expressing concern about the accuracy of the traffic study and requesting an independent study be conducted; noting that there are other areas that could benefit more from a signature building designed by Sifton.

Mrs. Cathrow, 521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting that tree retention and the view are important.

G. Blair, 519 Riverside - expressing opposition and noting the trees are a significant feature of the area, that the area already has air quality issues from all the traffic and in fact the City should be planting additional trees to increase the canopy and improve the air quality.

A. Negussie, 310-521 Riverside Drive - expressing opposition and noting that he received information from Planning staff that the site would permanently remain open space, and requesting an independent study with respect to the flood plain and the best use of this site.

S. Trosow, 43 Mayfair Drive - representing the London Coalition Against Pollution and expressing opposition; noting that this application represents what could be precedent setting for the entire City with respect to the quality of the environment, that flood fringe and floodplain policies should be adhered to as flooding may increase in the future, that this development would increase vacant office space in other areas, that other neighbourhoods would actively seek out this sort of development which is not a considerate development in this area, and reiterating the need for an interim control by-law in relation to the flood plain.

H. McPhail, 783 Dufferin Avenue - expressing opposition and noting there is a need for commercial uses in the old east which has a heritage corridor in need of development, that water flow reports indicate there is already some concern with respect to water quality which should not be aggravated by the approval of this application.

G. Robson, 18 Hazelton Lane - expressing opposition; noting they travel past this site daily and don’t believe it is the proper location for this development.

B. Kwona, 815 Sunninghill Avenue -expressing opposition and concern that the open space zone is even being considered for re-zoning in this area as well as concerns about traffic safety, requesting an independent traffic study be conducted.

e R. Crow, 539 Oak Park Drive -expressing opposition to the application.

PC- 17
