General Comments

Finance and Infrastructure Services, Town of Caledon:

1. This property (0 Mount Pleasant Road, Part Lot 27, Con 8 (ALB) is currently assessed as Farmland

($470,000 CVA). The Town’s share of taxes levied, based on the current value assessment is

approximately $400. As at January 31, 2020, the property tax account in the name of Tropical Land

Developments Ltd. is determined to be current.

2. If the proposed development were to proceed as planned (includes eight residential lots), the taxable

assessment value of the property would change to reflect any development that would have taken place.

3. The proposed residential lots would be subject to Development Charges as follows:

a. Town of Caledon: $30,947.08 per single, or semi-detached dwelling (effective February 1, 2020);

b. Region of Peel: $52,458.79 per single or semi-detached dwelling (effective February 1, 2020). If the

proposed development has access to the Region’s water services but not to waste water services,

Development Charges of $40,788.21 per single or semi-detached unit would apply.

c. Starting on February 1, 2016, the Region began collecting directly for hard service Development

Charges (i.e. water, wastewater and roads) for all residential subdivisions, except for apartments, at

the time of subdivision agreement execution.

d. School Boards: $4,572 per any residential dwelling; and

e. Go-transit: $574.46 per single or semi-detached residential dwelling (effective February 1, 2020).

The Development Charges comments and estimates above are as at January 31, 2020 and are based

they mostly postdated 1870 which is the cut off for a Stage 4.

Detailed Comments

Prior to Draft Plan of Subdivision Approval, the following comments must be addressed:

6. Prior to Draft Plan Approval, the following Planning comments must be addressed:

a. Please revise the “Planning Rational Report”, prepared by The Biglieri Group Ltd.:

Page 5 of 11

i. To reference the 2020 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), instead of the now outdated

2014 PPS.

ii. Page 11 – please update the 3rd paragraph to identify the proposed density bonus lot.

b. Regarding the Minimum Distance Separation (MDS) policy 7.1.9.8, please demonstrate on a plan that

the proposed Structure Envelopes are all outside of the 150 m of an existing livestock barn or yard

utilized for commercial farming purposes or as defined by the Agricultural Code of Practice.

c. Draft Zoning By-law and Schedule: The Key Natural Heritage Features (KNHF’s), Hydrologically

Sensitive Features (HSF’s) and Minimum Vegetation Protection Zone (MVPZ) are to be placed in the

more restrictive EPA zone category, which is EPA1. Given that the KNHF’s. HSF’s and MVPZ will

not be conveyed into public ownership and will form part of private lots, it is appropriate to apply a

site-specific EPA-Exception zone (i.e. EPA1-XX) that includes a provision for “Natural Area

Restrictions”, which will correspond to the Structure Envelope Zone Map for the draft plan of

subdivision. As an example, please refer to the Caledon Residences Inc. (Beaverhall) Structure

Envelope (S.E.) Zone Map 31, and exception zone EPA1-576, which can be downloaded the Town of

Caledon website at: https://www.caledon.ca/en/townhall/bylaw200650.asp. Furthermore, please

ensure the full extent of the KNHF’s and MVPZ are included in the EPA1-XX zone. It is suggested

that the lands proposed to be zoned EPA1-404 be included in the site-specific EPA1-XX zone for the

site and add “flood and erosion control” to the permitted uses.

d. Concept Site Plan: Please investigate opportunities to locate the septic systems for Lots 1 and 4 to

the side of the houses to allow for more space at the rear of the house for amenity uses such as

pools.

7. Prior to Draft Plan Approval, the following Development Engineering comments must be addressed:

Stormwater Management/Storm Drainage:

a. Table G.1 still states that the total annual rainfall depth is derived from the Richmond Hill rainfall data.

Please revise.

Grading/Drainage:

b. Section 8.4.1.10 xii of the OP indicates that the depth of cut for local streets and structural envelopes

will normally be restricted to 1.0 ~ 2.0 m. This requirement applies to fill as well. Based on the

preliminary grading plan, a depth of filling in excess of 2.0 m is required for Lots 1 and 8. Please

investigate earthwork amounts can be reduced to limit the maximum 2m of fill.

c. Based on the grading plan, the retaining walls are required under Lots 1 and 8 driveways. This is not

acceptable. This issue could be deferred to the detailed design stage, however, please verify that the

proposed drainage pattern can be maintained.

Page 6 of 11

d. Some driveways still have less than a 2% slope. In accordance with the Site Plan Control By-law

within the ORMCP, all lots from the Tropical Land development are required to obtain ORM Scoped

site plan approval as they will be reviewed individually as site plan applications. Therefore, this issue

could be deferred until the ORM Scoped site plan stage, however, please note that the proposed

driveway slope of 1.0% is not acceptable.

Road Geometrics

e. Please show continuous curb lines on the north side of Street A and use different line types or layers

to show the future road layout on Block 11.

Environmental Noise

f. The Environmental Noise Feasibility Study prepared by Valcoustics Canada Ltd. dated June 26,

2018, indicates the predicted unmitigated daytime OLA sound level to be lower than 55 dBA,

therefore sound barriers will not be required. The report shall be peer-reviewed at the Owner’s

expense. This shall be completed prior to Draft Approval.

g. Also see attached letter from CP Rail, dated Jan. 27, 2020.

Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation:

h. The revised Geotechnical and Hydrogeological Reports prepared by Sirati & Partners Consultants

Limited shall be peer-reviewed at the Owner’s expense. This shall be completed prior to Draft

Approval.

i. The Phosphorous loading analysis shows an increase of 18.5% in phosphorus loading with the

implementation of BMPs. However, Town staff will defer to the NVCA staff if the proposed

phosphorous mitigation BMPs are acceptable.

j. According to the Hydrogeological report section 4.4., the subject land lies partially in the wetland

protection area (25-year time of travel) with a reliability score of 4 out of 10. Confirm with the Region

of Peel if it is acceptable to allow roadside drainages to infiltrate into the well head protection zone.

Environmental Impact Assessment:

k. The Owner has submitted Phase I and Phase II EIA reports by Sirati & Partners Consultants Limited;

the Phase II report has confirmed that the property is suitable for the proposed development. It should

be noted that regardless of any conclusions identified in these assessments, the Town will require

that a Record of Site Condition be filed with MOECC for all lands associated with the noted draft plan.

4. All previous comments have been addressed with no additional comments at this time.

Hydrogeology Impact Study Comments:

5. Staff are supportive that no positive dewatering will be expected during construction (Section 12 titled construction dewatering within the Hydrogeological Impact Study

[HIS]) based on the groundwater monitoring that is presented in Section 9 and 10 of the HIS which incorporates the hydrological calendar.

6. If the proponent wishes to promote awareness of the importance of SGRAs and HVAs by means of sign boards explaining the linkage between surface activities and their impact on groundwater quality and quantity as outlined in Section 13 4, please include

the NVCA in its development.

7. Section 14.5 summary of water balance calculations-catchment 1 indicates that the total

volume of the LIDs associated with roof area is not sufficient to compensate for the total infiltration requirement and “extra sources should be considered”. Please outline what this consists of. (It is recognized that this may be out of scope of SIRATI report as

indicated in section 14.8 that SIRATI is not providing any design of LID techniques since selection and designing of applicable LID techniques shall be conducted by engineering

designers).

8. Section 15 water quality indicates that the measured concentration of Nitrate as N is 33.1 mg/L. Further, it is understood that the proposed development will be serviced by

individual septic systems. Please advise on the reasonable use calculation for nitrate for the septic systems and potential impacts to proximal water wells.

Conclusion

We note that these comments are related to this submission and the information provided within this submission. NVCA requires additional information in order to complete our review

and additional comments may be provided in the future.

We have reviewed the circulation regarding the above noted application. We have no conditions and/or objections to the application at this time. We hereby advise the Developer, however, to contact Bell Canada during detailed design to confirm the provision of communication/telecommunication infrastructure needed to service the development.

As you may be aware, Bell Canada is Ontario’s principal telecommunications infrastructure provider, developing and maintaining an essential public service. It is incumbent upon the Municipality and the Developer to ensure that the development is serviced with communication/telecommunication infrastructure. In fact, the 2014 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) requires the development of coordinated, efficient and cost-effective infrastructure, including telecommunications systems (Section 1.6.1).

The Developer is hereby advised that prior to commencing any work, the Developer must confirm that sufficient wire-line communication/telecommunication infrastructure is available. In the event that such infrastructure is unavailable, the Developer shall be required to pay for the connection to and/or extension of the existing communication/telecommunication infrastructure.

If the Developer elects not to pay for the above noted connection, then the Developer will be required to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Municipality that sufficient alternative communication/telecommunication will be provided to enable, at a minimum, the effective delivery of communication/telecommunication services for emergency management services (i.e., 911 Emergency Services).

Leilani, This is in reference to the circulation of the noted application which is situated in close proximity to CP’s Mactier Subdivision, classified as a Principal Main Line. This land use is not compatible with railway operations and we request that the following requirements be included as conditions of approval: 1. Dwellings must be constructed such that the interior noise levels meet MOE criteria. A noise study should be carried out by a professional noise consultant to determine what impact, if any, railway noise would have on residents of proposed subdivisions and to recommend mitigation measures if required. The Railway may consider other measures recommended by the study. 2. In addition to the warning clauses indicated in the noise report, a clause should be inserted in all offers to purchase, agreements of purchase and sale or lease and in the title deed or lease of each dwelling within 300m of the railway right-of-way, warning prospective purchasers or tenants of the existence of the Railway's operating right-of-way; the possibility of alterations including the possibility that the Railway may expand its operations, which expansion may affect the living environment of the residents notwithstanding the inclusion of noise and vibration attenuating measures in the design of the subdivision and individual units, and that the Railway will not be responsible for complaints or claims arising from the use of its facilities and/or operations. Regards,

Josie Tomei SR/WA Specialist Real Estate Sales & Acquisitions 905-803-3429 800-1290 Central Parkway West Mississauga, ON L5C 4R3
