1New Tecumseth Zoning By-law Update

1.0 Introduction

PurposeThe purpose of this Zoning Options Report is to build on the previously completed Background Report, further exploring a general framework and options for addressing key planning issues that will be regulated through the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law. In particular, this Report explores options for underlying ‘philosophies’ which will provide a foundation for how zoning is approached in New Tecumseth, as well as options for addressing a number of other ‘special issues’ which have come up in this process to-date.

Through this Report, the Project Team also explores preliminary approaches to developing the new ‘zones’ for the Town and provides a mapping analysis to determine the geographic distribution of existing land uses. Collectively the options explored through this Report will serve as the basis for obtaining additional public and stakeholder feedback and a starting point for preparing a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law for New Tecumseth.

Land Use Planning in OntarioLand use planning is the process of decision-making for the management of our land and resources. Land use planning is regulated under Ontario’s policy led land use planning system, which is given legal authority under the Planning Act. The Planning Act defines:

> How the land use planning system works; > Who makes decisions; > How to resolve disputes and seek public input; and, > Provincial and municipal roles in planning administration.

Land use planning helps each community to set development goals while keeping social, economic and environmental factors in mind. It helps decide where in our communities homes and factories should be built; where parks and schools should be located; and where roads, sewers and other essential services should be provided. Good land use planning leads to orderly growth and the efficient provision of services. It touches all of us and helps us to have the kind of community we want.

The Town’s role in land use planningThe Town of New Tecumseth has a major role in land use planning. They use their Official Plan, Zoning By-law, development

application approval processes, and transportation and infrastructure planning, among other tools, to help decide how to grow and develop, while keeping important social, economic and environmental concerns in mind. The approvals processes for land use planning and land development balance the interests of individual property owners with the wider interests and objectives of the whole community.

The need for a new Comprehensive Zoning By-lawThe Town of New Tecumseth recently prepared and adopted a new Official Plan, which was approved by the County of Simcoe on June 25th, 2019. The Official Plan sets out the Town’s overarching vision for the future of the Town and provides a set of guiding principles and general policies for future land use and development.

Now that the new Official Plan is in effect, the Town’s Comprehensive Zoning By-law must be revised to ensure that it conforms to the Town’s new Official Plan. It is a requirement that the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law implements the vision, principles and policies of New Tecumseth’s new Official Plan and provides for its day-to-day administration.

It is the overall objective of the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law to help create successful, vibrant, and livable communities with an array of residential housing types, employment generating business parks, commercial mixed use areas, all in a pedestrian-oriented environment. The new Comprehensive Zoning By-law will apply to all land within the Town of New Tecumseth, with the exception of land in the Oak Ridges Moraine Plan Area. Through the authority granted in Section 34 of The Planning Act, the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law provides a legal way of managing land use and future development. It will:

> Divide New Tecumseth into different land use zones, with detailed maps; and,

> Contain, for each zone, specific requirements that are legally enforceable. It will state precisely:

+ How land may be used; + Where buildings and other structures can be located on a

property; + The types and scale of buildings that are permitted; and, + The lot sizes and dimensions, building setbacks, lot

coverage and parking requirements.


2.0 What We’ve Heard

ProcessThis Zoning By-law Update project was commenced in the fall of 2019 and is anticipated to be completed in late summer 2020. Stage 1: Background Review, Analysis and Issue Identification was completed in the fall of 2019 to early 2020, and included a Public Open House, an online survey and the preparation of a Background Report. This project is now in Stage 2: Preparation of Draft Zoning By-law of the work plan.

To date, the Project Team has collected a range of input from the public, stakeholder groups and Town staff. This input helps identify issues to address, opportunities to consider and potential priorities going forward.

Public Open House and Stakeholder MeetingsNovember 20, 2019Last November a Public Open House was convened in Beeton, and while the sessions were not that well attended, there was lively discussion on a number of topics, which is summarized as follows:

> Find an appropriate balance for updating definitions to ensure clarity, while providing reasonable flexibility;

> Ensure the Zoning By-law is simpler and easy-to-understand for non-experts, consider the use of tables and diagrams;

> Ensure that parking requirements don’t create a barrier for new businesses in the downtowns;

> Explore higher density residential in the downtowns; > Create a more streamlined process, more ‘as-of-right’

opportunities/pre-zoning; > Limit the number of exceptions carried forward; > Explore what is preventing developers from building taller

buildings in the downtowns; > Ensure the downtowns act as ‘destinations’; > Expand additional unit permissions; > Concerned with parking in higher density residential

neighbourhoods; > Urban design guidelines that reflect quality design and

materials; > Detailed requirements for garages and driveways;


> Buildings with ground floor commercial and residential units above;

> Pre-zoning and an alphabetized table of contents; and, > Angular plane where new construction abuts existing

development.

Online SurveyJanuary 6 to February 25, 2020The online survey provided participants with the opportunity to rank various priorities and strategies for the Zoning By-law Update, providing feedback on what is most important to them. The summarized results include:

> Top four ranked priorities (of eight): Housing, Buildings, Downtowns, Industrial Areas;

> Top seven ranked strategies (of fourteen): + More affordable housing; + More people downtown; + Pedestrian friendly; + Diverse neighbourhoods; + Vibrant downtowns; + Transition zones; and, + Greening the Town.

Meeting with Town StaffFebruary 25, 2020The Project Team met with Town staff on February 25, 2020 to discuss the overall project work plan, the results of the online survey, the future Zoning Forum and the scope/focus of this Zoning Options Report. Key input from Town staff included:

> The need to explore the approach of the Zoning By-law with respect to planning for/anticipating intensification, or maintaining the status quo – how might the Zoning By-law address the downtowns versus the large format retail areas?;

> Explore how zoning can work with the ongoing Beeton Heritage Conservation District project;

> Need to find the appropriate balance for change in existing residential communities – what is the reasonable next step in their natural evolution?;

> Explore providing for certainty in the business parks e.g. through pre-zoning;


> Review employment lands to ensure that the lands zoned for employment uses can realistically meet Provincial requirements (e.g. setbacks from sensitive uses). In the time since the lands were initially identified for employment uses, some surrounding contexts may have evolved which impacts what uses are appropriate;

> Permitted uses for the downtowns should include consideration for new uses, such as small scale industrial uses, which do not need to locate in industrial areas due to negligible impacts, artist studios, micro-breweries/distilleries; and,

> Need to further explore appropriate locations/regulations for the growing and associated production of cannabis.


3.0 Philosophy of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law

The Zoning TransectZones for mixed uses and residential uses are based around the idea of a transect-based code. This is an American-based concept, and it is a method for organizing urban form in a continuum of intensity from urban, to suburban, to rural, facilitating its categorization within form-based definitions. The unique transect for New Tecumseth goes as follows:

> The downtowns of Alliston, Beeton and Tottenham, collectively create the heart of each community - with a focus on downtown Alliston, where the greatest intensity of development is found. The highest and most dense buildings, and the greatest mix of uses, are located here;

> The series of graduated transitions that generally abut/surround the downtowns, include:

+ The lower intensity residential neighbourhoods - comprised primarily of single detached houses, with some medium density enclaves;

+ The newer commercial centres; + The employment areas.

These districts represent the more suburban elements of the transect; and,

> The rural/agricultural area surrounds each of the communities, and has the lowest intensity of development.

This theoretical approach cannot be applied dogmatically to existing communities that have developed over a long period of time. However, in New Tecumseth, there is relevance in the concept as the community transitions outward from the urban cores, through the mid-intensity residential neighbourhoods, commercial districts and employment areas, out to the rural/agricultural hinterland.

It does remain important to remember that New Tecumseth is a collective of 3 communities that have each developed over a very long period of time, and each of them exhibit different forms and densities. The transect concept does not always occur in a straight line from centre to edge, but it is still evident as a general pattern of development. The transect is a useful tool for organizing the Town’s urban structure and establishing zones that facilitate a continuum of intensity using form-based standards, as well as more typical use-focused zoning regulations.

The Continuum of Control Regulate - Manage - FacilitateThe identification of the ‘continuum of control’ is an important discussion because it will involve decisions about how the Comprehensive Zoning By-law will be applied throughout New Tecumseth, particularly in consideration of achieving particular elements of the vision that is identified in the Official Plan. The continuum of control affects to what level different types of development or redevelopment are acknowledged and/or encouraged and what becomes the most appealing/least risky options.

For each zone established, with a few exceptions, a decision about what to control and the level of control to be exercised will need to be made - because, once the level of control is defined, going outside of the framework of permission means that it is prohibited, both in terms of land use and the elements of regulatory framework identified.

> Regulate - The Zoning By-law identifies what uses and forms of development are permitted within each zone. It establishes a very specific regulatory framework for development.

In terms of land use, the corollary is also true - if the use is not specifically permitted, it is therefore prohibited. The strength of the Zoning By-law in prohibiting land uses is significant. It is crucial that the list of permitted uses within each zone is carefully considered, starting with consideration of what the Official Plan says, notwithstanding that Zoning can be more


restrictive than the Official Plan. The Zoning By-law cannot add uses not generally identified in the Official Plan.

With respect to built-form, the Zoning By-law typically establishes minimum and/or maximum standards that must be achieved - for example, a minimum front yard setback, a minimum or maximum building height. Again, the Zoning By-law provisions are not subject to interpretation. They are specific in what they permit, and going outside of the established framework is prohibited. In some instances the Official Plan is specifically instructive - sometimes it is subject to substantial interpretation.

In terms of control, the specificity of use, and the number and narrowness of the associated regulatory provisions can ensure exactly what is built, and where it is built. The more specific and narrow the By-law is, the more control over development is exerted, and the less flexibility to allow things to happen. Should a developer wish to deviate from the specific/narrow permitted uses and associated regulatory provisions, they would have to go through a minor variance or zoning by-law amendment process, involving review by Town staff and a public process.

> Manage - As noted, the Zoning By-law identifies what uses and forms of development are permitted within each zone. It establishes a very specific framework for development. A typical Zoning By-law permits and manages development within a zone, and in consideration of how each zone interfaces with neighbouring zones.

The By-law is appropriately used to permit, and to manage various forms of development, in conformity with the direction provided in the Official Plan. A more permissive approach includes a list of compatible permitted uses, reduces the elements of regulation, and provides flexibility within the parameters for regulating built form. The less specific and narrow the By-law is, the less control over development is exerted, and the more flexibility to allow things to happen.

> Facilitate - The Zoning By-law is a powerful tool that is available to the Town to anticipate and to facilitate positive change. Flexibility is inherent to the facilitative approach. The facilitation element of a Zoning By-law is typically focused on two key elements:

+ Establish zone categories that permit and manage the types and forms of development that are anticipated; and,

+ Pre-zone properties for the anticipated types and forms of development.


The Town may establish zone categories, and not necessarily apply them in all locations where they would be appropriate. In this approach, the Town is anticipating change, and establishing a regulatory framework - this will set the stage for change, in conformity with the Official Plan. It still requires that the developer apply for those rights on a site-by-site basis, but at the very least, the Town’s expectations for the zone have been articulated. The land use and built form have been anticipated, and the flexibility to achieve them is incorporated in the regulatory elements.

Pre-zoning is important to facilitate change because it removes the risk of the development approvals process from the developer. It articulates the Town’s development expectations, in conformity with the Official Plan, and allows development to happen more quickly than the typical process where the onus is on the developer to seek a site, or area specific rezoning. The land use and built form have been facilitated because time, risk and cost elements of the development approval process have been reduced for the developer.

The Continuum of Control: ApplicationIn considering the options provided by continuum of control approaches, it should be noted that different approaches can be applied in different locations throughout the Town of New Tecumseth, as deemed appropriate through this update process. Factors to consider could include:

> The diversity of the existing context and/or the presence of sensitive uses;

> Whether there are Town objectives that would require different development forms than have previously been built;

> How certain the Town is of what built forms or uses are appropriate;

> What is the political/public appetite for reviewing various types of proposed developments; and/or,

> Whether a different approach is needed to generate a greater level of development activity/interest.

As a result of these various factors, areas such as the downtowns, where there is appetite for increased development by some stakeholders, could be pre-zoned in a way that is closer to the anticipate/facilitate end of the continuum. The existing large-format commercial areas, where there may be less certainty with respect to what type of new development is appropriate, might be zoned in a way that more resembles the permit/manage approach, or even closer to the prohibit end of the continuum. These


choices could further differentiate between New Tecumseth’s three settlements to more specifically respond to their specific contexts.

It will further be crucial to ensure that where the zoning approaches the anticipate/facilitate end of the continuum, the Project Team, staff, Council, stakeholders and the public reach a high level of comfort with respect to what is being permitted. With new zones that widen permissions for development, including in some cases anticipating types of development which are not yet common in the Town, it will be crucial to get the mix of appropriate land uses and associated built form regulations ‘right’. Once a property is pre-zoned to anticipate/facilitate a certain type of development, there will be limited avenues for the Town, public or stakeholders to have a say, beyond through the Town’s Site Plan Control process.


4.0 The Existing Zoning Tables and GIS Mapping New Tecumseth’s existing Zoning By-law is summarized in the tables attached to this Report. A few observations may be drawn to help orient the Town’s current approach to zoning, and provide a baseline for moving forward with the updated Comprehensive Zoning By-law. This Section generally focuses on the commercial, industrial and residential zones.

Commercial ZonesThere are currently five commercial zones in New Tecumseth, which reflect different approaches to regulation. The Urban Commercial Core (UCC) zone tends to take a more permissive approach, likely towards the ‘manage’ or ‘facilitate’ end of the continuum of control, by permitting a broad range of uses and fewer/less onerous building size and placement provisions. However, the UCC also lists some more detailed/restrictive permitted uses (e.g. laundromat, financial institution) and establishes minimum dwelling unit sizes based on number of bedrooms, which is a controlling regulation at the ‘regulate’ range of the continuum. This last regulation also applies to the other commercial zones and is no longer considered an appropriate zoning regulation due to its impacts on affordability and housing choice – unit size should be regulated through the Ontario Building Code.

The Urban Highway Commercial (UHC) zone by contrast permits a more detailed and restrictive list of permitted uses, such as permitting a building supply centre, convenience retail establishment and accessory retail establishments, but not permitting retail uses generally, causing this zone to lean more towards the ‘regulate’ end of the continuum. The Convenience Commercial (CC) zone is also designed to ‘regulate’ by reflecting restrictive building size/placement provisions, including a minimum lot size that is almost twice the size of the UCC and the UHC zones and with setbacks which are similar to the UHC zone – despite its presumed purpose to be a more neighbourhood-scale commercial use.

Industrial ZonesThe Urban Light Industrial zone uses an approach that is more towards the ‘facilitate’ end of the continuum of control, with a wide range of permitted uses and more permissive building siting provisions. By contrast the Urban Industrial zone permits a much more restrictive range of uses, although allows a greater building height and lot coverage.

Regulate Manage Facilitate




Residential ZonesThe existing Zoning By-law’s approach to the residential zones is towards the ‘regulate’ end of the continuum of control, with five urban residential zones, in addition to another five residential zones intended to address more specific circumstances (e.g. estate, hamlet and communally serviced residential). There are also requirements for minimum dwelling unit sizes (discussed above) and a high number of provisions to regulate lot size, building position and building size, which are specifically designed not just for each zone, but also for each dwelling unit type within each zone. Of these provisions, the zoning establishes more restrictive requirements for more denser unit types. This regime therefore mandates that denser dwelling unit types will be designed at a greater building scale, rather than facilitating a smoother integration of different dwelling unit types. Notwithstanding the above, only one of the five urban residential zones permits buildings taller than 11 metres.

MappingUsing the GIS data available from the Town, and in particular the ‘property codes’, the Project Team created maps of each of New Tecumseth’s communities illustrating the distribution of residential dwelling unit types, as they exist on the ground (see attachments to this Report). This existing distribution was overlaid with the current zoning, illustrating to what degree the actual built form is consistent with zoning permissions. Generally, while it appears that these two layers are consistent, there are scattered properties which are presumably ‘legal-conforming’, such as ‘link home/semi-detached/townhouse/duplex’ units in the Urban Residential 1 zone, which only permits single-detached dwellings. Apart from determining consistency, the mapping of existing residential dwelling unit types also provides information regarding how well the existing zoning regime is facilitating various housing forms. Based on the mapping, it is clear that the majority of properties contain single detached dwellings, which range from consisting of over twice the number of properties as all other housing types combined in Tottenham, to being almost the only type of housing in the rural/agricultural area.

Of particular note, there are only 76 properties in the entirety of the three urban communities which accommodate housing types other than single detached, link home/semi-detached, townhouse/duplex, mobile home or group home. This speaks to the affordable housing challenges expressed through the public consultation and discussion with staff, and the limited supply of rental apartments in the Town. As the Project Team begins to



draft a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law, it will be important to consider what is working well in terms of facilitating an appropriate housing choice in the Town, and where barriers exist that should be addressed. It should be noted that ‘property code’ data was not available for every property, and gaps generally exist for more recent construction. Going forward, the Project Team will compare this data with aerial mapping, consultation with Town staff and/or site visits.


5.0 Zoning in the Context of Character

Existing NeighbourhoodsNew Tecumseth, and the urban communities of Alliston, Beeton and Tottenham, includes a number of existing neighbourhoods with distinctive built form characters. These characters are often highly valued by residents and are linked to the sense of identity of these areas, while also acting as an important asset and attractor for new residents and investment interests. However, at the same time, housing and market trends are continually changing, rendering the evolution and adaptation of existing communities an important factor for their continued success. Many municipalities across the Greater Golden Horseshoe are grappling with similar issues within their existing, mature neighbourhoods. The redevelopment of more modest house forms with more modern, and larger dwellings is seen by some as having a negative impact on community character, and by others as a positive investment in an ever evolving neighbourhood. Notwithstanding the broad range of public opinion on the issue, almost every Official Plan includes clear principles and policies that are aimed at protecting existing neighbourhoods, while promoting a ‘compatible’ evolution. The New Tecumseth Official Plan defines ‘compatible’ as:

“development or redevelopment which may not necessarily be the same as or similar to the existing development in the vicinity, but shall enhance the

character of the community, while not creating any undue, adverse impacts on adjacent properties.”


Further, the objectives for the Urban Residential designation include:

“i) Maintain and enhance the character and identity of existing residential areas”; and,

“vii) Ensure that all development is compatible with the adjacent community.”

As a result, it will be important for the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law to implement the direction of the Official Plan and protect New Tecumseth’s existing neighbourhoods from incompatible forms of development, while still permitting them to evolve and be enhanced over time. All new development must be compatible with the surrounding context.

In terms of how this direction can be implemented through zoning, it will be important to consider what types of new development are desirable for a reasonable evolution of neighbourhoods and what role these neighbourhoods will play in accommodating growth.

The growth management section of the new Official Plan states that:

“development through intensification within the existing Urban Residential Neighbourhoods will be limited. That does not mean that existing Urban Residential Neighbourhoods will not evolve. Their contribution to the intensification target will include compatible

development on vacant lots, minor infill development and the establishment of second units.”

Therefore, the need for the protection of existing character needs to balance that protection with flexibility for innovation and opportunities for new investment. The ‘as-of-right’ zoning permissions will need to accurately answer the question - what is the next reasonable step in the built-form evolution of New Tecumseth’s existing residential neighbourhoods?

While an important consideration, protecting character is also not the only consideration in preparing updated zoning regulations for existing neighbourhoods. While ensuring that compatibility is always maintained, other objectives identified through the Official Plan, and through this zoning update process, include promoting additional housing choice and affordability, enhancing streetscapes through improving the relationship of buildings to the street, and


improving the overall walkability of the Town. All these objectives will need to be considered together in the design of the updated zoning regulations for new development.

There are a number of strategies to be considered in zoning for the gradual and compatible evolution of New Tecumseth’s existing residential neighbourhoods. These could include permitting additional built form types (i.e. permitting semis and duplexes where before only singles were permitted), permitting larger or smaller houses, permitting houses to have smaller setbacks and/or permitting smaller lots. More specifically, zoning strategies that have been implemented in other municipalities to manage new compatible development in existing neighbourhoods include:

> Establishing an overlay zone to identify area-specific regulations addressing the existing character;

> Minimum rear yard setbacks based on a percentage of lot depth, rather than an absolute setback;

> Interior side yard setbacks based on both the number of storeys and the lot width;

> Minimum front and exterior side yard setbacks for a garage; > Limiting how much a garage can project beyond main façade

(if at all); > Prohibiting balconies or decks on second storeys in interior

side yards or rear yards; > Front yard setbacks based on the setback range of adjacent

buildings; > Establishing different height limits for flat or sloped roofs;


> Specifying a maximum dwelling depth for the primary building; > Establishing a maximum width for a front-loading garage

based on a percentage of the dwelling width; > Specifying the number of permitted driveways and a maximum

width; and, > Specifying a maximum floor area ratio/floor space index for the

dwelling, and any accessory buildings.

It should also be noted that while not a zoning solution, there has been some success by other municipalities in establishing a scoped Site Plan Control process for new construction, detached garages and additions greater than 50 square metres in identified neighbourhoods, which provides a more detailed review of design elements.

Zoning to protect the character of existing residential neighbourhoods is often closer to the ‘regulate’ end of the continuum, where zoning preserves permissions for the built form that currently exists, without providing a great deal of flexibility. However, approaches could also lean closer to the ‘manage’ approach which may permit gradual change and the evolution of neighbourhoods. This issue is particularly important in consideration of the requirements to permit, as-of-right, additional dwelling units within the existing housing stock.

The Proposed Beeton Heritage Conservation DistrictThe Town is currently in the process of establishing a Heritage Conservation District (HCD) for a central portion of Beeton, and has released draft Design Guidelines which are intended to provide direction to property owners and the Town for maintaining and enhancing the historic character.

An HCD identifies heritage characteristics that are worthy of preservation, defines the area where those characteristics are predominant and then promotes a planning regime that conserves that overarching character. An HCD is approved under Part V of the Ontario Heritage Act, and is partly implemented through the Town’s Official Plan, Zoning By-law and Site Plan Control processes.

The HCD study for Beeton includes detailed draft Design Guidelines that inform all of the other planning tools and processes. In those draft Design Guidelines, the Beeton HCD Study identifies a host of built form elements that are to be



appropriately regulated within the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law. Items related to the location and orientation of a building on a lot (setback, or build-within zones), building scale and massing (height, stepbacks) transitions from one building to another (setbacks, angular planes) and parking and access (driveway width, garage and parking location) are likely to require definition within the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law.

It is important to note, however, that the Zoning By-law is not the only tool available to the Town. It is expected that many of the more refined ‘character’ defining elements within the Design Guidelines, such as building materials, architectural detail, colour and landscape requirements are appropriately managed through the Site Plan Approval process.

Zoning in the context of a Heritage Conservation District tends to be the most restrictive form of zoning, representative of the ‘regulate’ end of the continuum, where zoning conserves the built form character of the District, without providing a great deal of flexibility. This is particularly true when zoning is used in conjunction with the site plan approval process, and is subject to the legislative strength of the Heritage Act. However, and notwithstanding the built form and character elements of the zoning regime, there can be some flexibility with land use permissions, where the objective is to always find an appropriate adaptive reuse of heritage buildings.

6.0 Zoning in the Context of Economic DevelopmentZoning can play an important role in supporting economic development. This is true for traditional industrial/business parks as well as mixed use corridors and the downtowns, with the most obvious strategy being to ensure that appropriate ‘pre-zoning’ is in place, as previously discussed. Where possible/feasible, pre-zoning removes a significant barrier for prospective businesses/developers by allowing them to proceed with developing their site through a streamlined process and, perhaps more importantly, removing a significant source of uncertainty caused by the public process. Even if pre-zoning does not hit all of the regulatory elements exactly right, small adjustments can be made through the minor variance process, which is generally considered less onerous than the rezoning process.

The DowntownsZoning can also play a more indirect role in supporting economic development, particularly in the downtowns. One of the strongest messages received through the online survey, and from consultation with the business community, was the need to have more people in the downtowns to support local businesses and to create more dynamic centres. This would involve having more higher density residential and mixed-use development in, or directly adjacent to, the downtowns to create a built-in customer base, and where it would be easier for these future residents to walk or cycle to downtown businesses rather than drive elsewhere.

While apartment buildings, which would include condominium developments, are already a permitted use in New Tecumseth’s downtowns, there has been limited uptake of those permissions. One of the objectives of this zoning update project with be to shift the zoning regulations to make such development more attractive and economically viable for developers. To do that, it is imperative that the Town:

> Establish the environment for change – This can be done by pre-zoning the downtowns to conform with the permissive Official Plan policy framework. Establishing the environment for change means that the Town needs to help facilitate change. Permissive planning policy, pre-zoning and, potentially development incentives are key tools for facilitation;

> Reduce the risk of the development approvals process - By pre-zoning the Town is removing the risk of any required


Official Plan or Zoning By-law Amendments. The risk is related to the length of time to achieve approvals and the potential for a LPAT hearing. The burden of risk is taken on by the Town through the approval of a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law - a strong and helpful step in the facilitation of positive change; and,

> Reduce the cost of redevelopment - Risk means time, and in the development industry time also means cost. Pre-zoning shifts the burden away from a development proponent, and reduces the time required to achieve development approvals and that means development costs are reduced. The Town may also consider waiving application fees, reducing or waiving Development and Community Benefit Charges (when they are established), or by establishing development incentives through a Community Improvement Plan. Again, these municipal activities represent a strong and helpful step in the facilitation of positive change.

In establishing a zoning regime intended to facilitate change within the three downtowns, a number of regulations should be considered:

> Increasing the maximum permitted height to ensure that the development would be profitable for developers – this could be targeted to certain key areas where additional height would be appropriate;


> Decreasing parking requirements (or cash-in-lieu payments) and/or permit shared parking for mixed use buildings;

> Expand the geographic area for where apartment-style or mixed-use development may be developed as-of-right to areas directly adjacent to the downtowns, where appropriate;

> Develop a zone(s) that include broader permissions for higher density residential or mixed use development that a property owner could apply for, thereby simplifying the rezoning process while maintain Town/public oversight; and,

> Focus more on built form, and less on land use to facilitate a full range and mix of land uses within the downtowns.

The new Comprehensive Zoning By-law can also consider how technological and design changes have reduced the potential impacts of certain ‘industrial’ uses so that they are now more compatible with a mixed use environment. Small scale processing, ‘maker spaces’, micro-distilleries and micro-breweries, and artisan studios, among others, are now frequently locating in more central areas, adding to a vibrancy and diversity of uses, employment options and economic development potential. These types of uses will need to be explored and considered as valuable additions to New Tecumseth’s downtowns

Zoning in the context of economic development in the three downtowns is clearly intended to be more permissive, and potentially fully within the facilitation end of the continuum of control spectrum, with an emphasis on encouraging investment and development. Carrying the facilitation philosophy even further, the Town may consider the establishment of financial incentives, or at least reduced application fees, development charges and community benefits charges (once implemented).

Commercial AreasThe Town includes several commercial areas that have accommodated primarily retail and service commercial uses, including the Town’s inventory of larger scale retailers. The new Official Plan anticipates that these areas will evolve into mixed-use areas/corridors, and will eventually include higher density residential uses along with the permitted retail and service commercial uses.

These areas require special attention because it is crucial that the introduction of residential uses happens in a way that establishes appropriate relationships among the various uses and ensures a high quality environment that is typical for residential


*


communities. The introduction of residential uses requires the comprehensive consideration of:

> Any potential impacts on the residential use from the existing or planned retail and service commercial uses are understood and are appropriately mitigated;

> Appropriate active transportation and transit facilities, community services and park spaces are provided to serve the new residents;

> The visual and physical transitions among different land uses are adequately and appropriately considered; and,

> The residential elements are integrated into a larger, comprehensively planned mixed use community, and are not isolated pockets of residential buildings.

Keeping these important planning issues in mind, it would be appropriate to establish an effective zoning framework that anticipates the introduction of residential land uses within the commercial corridors, but not to pre-zone, until the Town is satisfied that comprehensive planning has been carried out.

In this regard, the approach of setting up the zone categories for the introduction of residential development forms within the commercial areas in conformity with the new Official Plan, but not immediately applying those zones geographically, is a hybrid of a managed approach and facilitative approach. The intent is to introduce residential uses into these commercial areas where an appropriate urban, mixed use environment will be established, to the satisfaction of the Town.

Industrial/Business ParksLooking at the more industrial end of economic development, another important consideration will be to undertake an evaluation with respect to the appropriateness of an industrial zone for existing properties. The purpose of this process would be to ensure that those properties which are zoned to accommodate industrial uses may realistically be developed accordingly in the foreseeable future. Characteristics that may be considered include whether the sites are of a sufficient size to be practical in today’s economy, have appropriate access to the transportation network and, most importantly, would still comply with Provincial regulations. This last point recognizes that for a number of existing vacant industrial properties, more sensitive uses (e.g. residential uses) may have been developed in proximity since their industrial zoning was put in place. These sensitive uses may now



preclude the envisioned industrial uses from being developed due to separation requirements intended to protect sensitive uses from undue, adverse impacts. To address the above issues, potential zoning options could include:

> Enhanced buffering requirements; > Decreasing minimum lot size requirements; > Decreasing minimum setback requirements for certain uses

where negative impacts will not result; > Increasing minimum setback requirements where there are

nearby sensitive uses; > Permitting a different range of uses which are more

compatible with sensitive uses, while maintaining conformity with the Official Plan, such as office uses, data processing and hotel uses;

> Increasing or decreasing the maximum height permissions to address either smaller lot sizes, or nearby sensitive uses; and,

> Requiring alternative site design and/or parking provision to adapt to a new context.

Zoning in the context of economic development in the industrial areas is clearly intended to be more permissive, and potentially fully within the facilitation end of the continuum of control spectrum, with an emphasis on encouraging investment and development. In this regard, it is crucial that the Town have an inventory of industrial/business park lands that are ‘shovel-ready’, and that partly means that they a are pre-zoned and ready for development with a minimum of planning approvals required.

7.0 Zoning in the Rural/Agricultural Area

Implementing the new Official PlanFarming in New Tecumseth has a long tradition, focused primarily on potato farming, and sod farming. The rural/agricultural landscape surrounding Alliston, Beeton and Tottenham is reflective of this farming legacy. In recent changes to Provincial legislation, there has been a general loosening of the regulations that govern farmland throughout Ontario. The intent of the Province is to find other economic opportunities, related to the agricultural use, that farmers can explore to make their agricultural business more fiscally viable in the long-term.

It is important to note that the added flexibility for additional land uses is all about other economic opportunities that still protect the underlying agricultural lands and operations. The flexibility does not imply that rural/agricultural lands are available for other forms of development. The new Official Plan incorporates these Province-led changes, and the Comprehensive Zoning By-law will need to capture the flexibility with a host of new regulatory instruments.

The new Official Plan identifies a long-list of permitted land uses that are intended to support the underlying rural/agricultural context of these lands. In addition, the new Official Plan begins to articulate just how various permitted land uses are to be considered on individual properties in the rural/agricultural areas of the Town. Some uses will be permitted as-of-right in the new Comprehensive By-law, others will be required to go through the rezoning process. The following is a summary:

> Accessory Residential Uses - Accessory residential uses required to accommodate farm help are permitted subject to a zoning by-law amendment, which requires consideration of the nature of the farm operation, servicing and compatibility criteria;


> Bed and Breakfast Establishments - Bed and breakfast establishments are to be permitted as-of-right in the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, but such uses are subject to site plan approval;

> Home Occupations - Home occupations are permitted as-of-right in the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, subject to compliance with zone regulations intended to address compatibility, scale, parking, servicing, signage and floor area;

> Home Industries and On-Farm Diversified Uses - The establishment of a home industry or an on-farm diversified use is subject to the approval of a zoning by-law amendment. Development criteria to be assessed through the planning approval includes location, size, scale, setbacks, compatibility, storage and open storage;

> Agri-Tourism Uses - Agri-tourism uses such as farm tours and playgrounds may be permitted subject to the approval of a zoning by-law amendment. In consideration of a zoning amendment development criteria that would be considered by Council include compatibility, parking, traffic impacts, character and servicing;

> Agricultural Research and Training Establishment - Agricultural research and training establishment may be permitted subject to a zoning by-law amendment, and subject to an assessment of the relationship and benefit of the use to the agricultural community; and,

> Agricultural-Related Uses - Agricultural-related uses may be permitted subject to the approval of a zoning by-law amendment. Policy matters to be considered in the approval of an agricultural-related use include planning (land use) justification, the economic focus of the business, impacts on agricultural uses, size and character, and compliance with Minimum Distance Separation as per OMAFRA Guidelines.

Zoning for agricultural uses is generally relatively standard, towards the more controlled ‘regulate’ end of the continuum of control, notwithstanding that the new Official Plan permits a wide range of new uses, subject to a zoning by-law amendment. Where possible, creating a more permissive framework to support the viability of the agricultural economy by permitting some of the new uses as-of-right, subject to development criteria and, potentially Site Plan Approval, could also be considered.

The Cannabis Act/RegulationThe situation around cannabis growing opportunities within New Tecumseth has been raised as a key issue. On October 17, 2018, it became legal to produce and possess cannabis for recreational purposes under the Cannabis Act. The Cannabis Act establishes the authority for the Federal government to issue or renew licenses and permits, however it is the applicant’s responsibility to comply with all applicable provincial laws as well as municipal by-laws. Generally, the Federal government will likely not issue a license without a municipal endorsement as expressed through a Council resolution of support, and a path forward through typical planning approval processes - a zoning by-law amendment, site plan approval and/or building permit.

The Cannabis Act Regulation provides for the followings classes of licenses in relation to the production and processing of cannabis:

> Cultivation; > Processing; > Analytical testing; > Sale; > Research; and, > Drug License.

Under the Regulation, the following sub-classes of licenses are available specifically for Cultivation:

> Micro-cultivation; > Standard cultivation; and, > Nursery.

Under the Regulation, the following sub-classes of licenses are available specifically for Processing:

> Micro-processing; and, > Standard processing.

In addition, under the Regulation, a holder of a license for micro-cultivation is limited to a maximum floor area of 200 m2 within which all cannabis plants must be contained. Under the Regulation, the holder of a micro-processing license must not possess more than 600 kg of dried cannabis within one calendar year.

Cannabis production and processing has proven to be a land use and planning issue that many municipalities have had to consider


at a policy and/or regulatory level. Key issues raised by production facilities typically include odour, traffic and lighting. Sometimes, however, the issue is really about whether or not Council wants their municipality to be a willing host of the cannabis growing business at all.

Prior to October 17, 2018, cannabis production was legal but could only accommodate the medical market. Furthermore the regulation of medical production facilities required all production to occur indoors, so generally many rural municipalities did not view such facilities as being agricultural in nature. However, subsequent to October 17, 2018, cannabis production is now permitted as an outdoor crop and several production licenses were issued in Ontario during the 2019 growing season. The authorization of outdoor production therefore requires rural municipalities to consider cannabis production in the context of a legitimate agricultural use.

The new Official Plan identifies a substantial agricultural land use designation and the policies of this designation are highly supportive of agriculture and agri-business. Given that cannabis production is a crop that can be legally produced outdoors, the Town’s Comprehensive Zoning By-law should consider how best to regulate this use. Options could include:

> Amending the definition of ‘Agriculture’ to recognize cannabis production;

> Creating a new definition for ‘Cannabis Facility’, which could be broadened to address the various Federal license categories;

> Creating regulations to authorize cannabis production as-of-right. Examples:

+ Require that facilities are accessory to outdoor production; + Minimum lot area and minimum setbacks; + Minimum separation distance from sensitive uses; + Maximum floor area of buildings and structures; and/or, + Establishing a relationship between the size of a facility

and the size of the outdoor crop.

It appears that the only thing a municipality can do at this point is to refuse (by resolution) to be a host for retail stores. If the Town were to use the Planning Act, and for the purposes of this Report - zoning regulations - to prohibit production or processing of cannabis, those regulations would be challenged, and likely successfully challenged. The Province, through OMAFRA, has endorsed cannabis production as a form of agriculture, and the Provincial Policy Statement allows processing facilities in the


agricultural designation for crops produced within that same agricultural designation. It appears that there is no basis in Provincial policy to prohibit production or processing of cannabis in the agricultural designation.

Within the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, there are three options to regulate cannabis production and processing uses to consider:

> Regulate - Cannabis production and processing uses would not be recognized in the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, and would therefore be permitted only through the zoning by-law amendment process. In this approach, each application would be considered on its merits, on a case-by-case basis;

> Manage - Cannabis production and processing uses would be defined and regulated within the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, having the effect of limiting where or how many facilities could be established, and the physical parameters for their development. The process for approval would still be through the zoning by-law amendment process, and the review of the application will use the regulations of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law to evaluate the proposal; or,

> Facilitate - Cannabis production and processing uses would be permitted as-of-right within the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, including physical parameters for their development. If the application conforms to the physical parameters of the by-law, only site plan approval and a building permit would be required.

8.0 Additional Residential Units

Bill 108: More Homes, More Choices Act, 2019Bill 108, which was released by the Province in 2019, established the requirement for municipalities to permit additional residential units (formerly known as second units) within detached, semi-detached and row houses, and in an accessory building (e.g. above laneway garages or in coach houses), totalling three residential units on the property. This is already a departure from the new Official Plan, which was approved prior to Bill 108 and which permits only one additional residential unit per property. Full implementation of Bill 108 will therefore require a Town-initiated Official Plan Amendment, as well as the development of implementing zoning regulations through this update process.

To determine an appropriate approach to additional residential unit regulations, the Project Team undertook a detailed review of relevant provisions for municipalities across Ontario (a detailed table is included as an attachment to this Report). While additional residential units are broadly permitted across Ontario, the extent and detail, and the level of support/facilitation of the regulations pertaining to additional residential units, varies widely.

Location of Additional Residential UnitsAcross the municipalities included in this review, additional residential units are permitted within single detached, semi-detached, linked housing, and townhouse dwellings. In addition, many municipalities allow additional residential units to be built within accessory buildings on the same lot as the principal dwelling. Additional residential units within accessory buildings often have additional regulations that apply to them, such as setback requirements from lot lines and the primary dwelling, landscaping requirements and servicing and access requirements.

While Provincial regulations now allow for two additional residential units to be located on one lot (one additional residential unit within the primary dwelling, and one additional residential unit within an accessory building), no reviewed municipalities, other than the City of Toronto, currently allows for an additional residential unit within the primary dwelling and within an accessory structure. This is not surprising considering that Bill 108 is still relatively recent, and many municipalities are likely still in the process of implementing these new requirements.

Additional residential units are permitted within residential zones, and in some smaller and more rural locations, within agriculture


and rural zones. Additional residential units are not permitted within environmental protection zones, floodplains, or natural hazard areas. However, some municipalities that have residential areas within floodplains allow additional residential units that are located above ground, rather than in basements that would be susceptible to flooding.

Parking Research has shown that onerous parking requirements can prohibit property owners from building additional residential units. In fact, the Province released several regulations in support of Bill 108 aimed at reducing barriers, which include:

> A maximum of one parking space for each of the additional residential units must be provided, which may be provided through tandem parking;

> Where a municipal Zoning By-law requires no parking spaces for the primary residential unit, no parking spaces would be required for the additional residential units; and,

> Where a municipal Zoning By-law is passed that sets a parking standard lower than a standard of one parking space for each of the additional residential units, the municipal Zoning By-law parking standard would prevail.

Of the reviewed municipalities, the vast majority require a new parking space to be provided on site for an additional residential unit. Many municipalities allow for this parking space to be provided as tandem with existing parking, making it less prohibitive to provide parking, consistent with the above recent Provincial regulations. In more urban and dense cities such as Ottawa and Toronto, there are no parking requirements for additional residential units, which may be more appropriate for these cities where residents may not have cars and there is ready access to public transportation.

Size of Additional Residential UnitsMost municipalities limit the size of additional residential units to be within 40 to 50% of the Gross Floor Area of the principal dwelling. Generally, if the additional residential unit is located within the basement, it can span the entirety of the basement.

Access The vast majority of the municipalities do not allow for a new front entrance to be created to provide access to an additional residential unit. The entrance to the additional residential unit must be located to the side or rear of the principal dwelling or


entered through an internal vestibule using the existing primary entrance. This type of regulation is generally justified on the basis of ‘maintaining neighbourhood character’, although has recently come under fire by affordable housing advocates due to the hurdles it creates for the creation of an additional residential unit and the perceived message that additional residential units are not a socially ‘acceptable’ use.

Many municipalities require that a hard-landscaped path that is a minimum of 1.2 metres wide be provided to access the additional residential unit. Requirements relating to external access, and external alterations that are permitted to the primary dwelling vary widely by municipality. By limiting exterior alterations that can be made, municipalities can make it more difficult for residents to build additional residential units within their existing primary dwelling.


Zoning OptionsBased on the above review of additional residential unit regulations, some options for New Tecumseth’s new Comprehensive Zoning By-law include:

> Removal of minimum parking requirements, where appropriate;

> Any parking requirements should follow Provincial regulations by permitting tandem parking;

> Permissions for the creation of new front entrances that provide access to additional residential units;

> Minimizing setback and separation distance requirements for additional residential units in accessory buildings; and,

> Permitting additional residential units in all residential zones, as well as appropriate rural/agricultural zones.

While additional residential units are widely permitted across Ontario, many municipalities have not updated their zoning by-laws to reflect updated Provincial regulations pertaining to additional residential units. It will be important for New Tecumseth to incorporate existing best practices, in addition to the new Provincial requirements, to ensure that the provision of additional residential units, and the greater housing options and affordability they provide, is facilitated.

Traditionally, zoning for additional residential units (or accessory apartments, second units) has leaned towards the ‘regulate’ end of the continuum, with very prescriptive limits on how the units could be built. The Town is now encouraged by the Province to shift the zoning approach into the ‘facilitate’ end of the continuum as a means of encouraging more housing options and the associated affordability they provide.



9.0 More Housing ChoicesRecently there has been a growing trend in considering strategies for facilitating the development of a wider range of housing options in former exclusively single-detached housing neighbourhoods. This has been championed for the cause of increasing ‘missing middle’ housing to meet a wider range of housing needs in a variety of places, such as duplex, triplex and fourplex units (either rental or condominium tenure). Two key messages of this trend include:

> Incrementally increasing the permitted number of units/density can substantially increase the number of housing units and address housing costs; and,

> Higher densities do not have to equate to larger buildings. House scale buildings can accommodate more units, more choices and higher densities.

While the Bill 108 additional residential unit requirements discussed above will also contribute to increasing the range of housing options, the purpose of these ‘missing middle’ zoning changes is to create multiple ‘primary’ units, rather than units that are ‘accessory’ to a primary dwelling, which can permit more housing ownership options and may meet the needs of a wider range of household types. These ‘multi-plex’ housing options may not be appropriate in all neighbourhoods, and are generally more popular in older, more urban areas (larger lot frontages, larger lots, more walkable), rather than the Town’s newer, more suburban locations. However, underlying all these strategies is the objective of preserving the built form character of the existing neighbourhood.

Some options for widening the range of housing options in appropriate existing neighbourhoods include:

> Focusing regulations on the maximum building envelope/form and scale, rather than the number of units, to make developing smaller, more affordable units more attractive;

> Regulating building width and depth to ensure that the building size is predictable even when lot sizes vary, and will not be out of scale with its neighbours;

> Implementing a permissive regulatory regime for additional residential units (as discussed in the previous Section); and,

> Permitting diverse housing types, such as multi-plex and townhouses, as-of-right in appropriate neighbourhoods, with regulations respectful of the existing building massing characteristics and associated surrounding landscape.


Implementing the above options for increasing housing options in traditionally single-detached housing neighbourhoods would be a way to shift the zoning approach towards the ‘manage’ and even ‘facilitate’ end of the continuum of control by pushing the boundary of what types of housing could be permitted. The result is the production of a broader range and mix of housing types throughout the Town, including housing that has the potential to be more affordable.



10.0 Zoning By-law Structure and Next Steps

Zoning By-law StructureThe final structure of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law will be determined later in the process as the Project Team begins preparing the various drafts, and through the review by the Town, public and stakeholders. However, some objectives that are already apparent include ensuring that the by-law is easy to understand and use, has a logical flow and appropriately addresses the nuances of the Town, its three urban communities and the surrounding rural/agricultural area. Some options to consider moving forward include:

> More emphasis on communicating information in tables and graphics;

> Organizing the zones: + By community (i.e. Alliston, Beeton, Tottenham, rural/

agricultural area); + By Official Plan designation (i.e. which zones correspond to

each designation); and/or, + By zone type (i.e. residential, agricultural, industrial – this is

how the current Zoning By-law is structured); > The prominence of definitions, general provisions and

exceptions (i.e. at the front of the document, or at the back); and,

> The amount of explanatory text, including call-out boxes, introductory text etc.

Next StepsFollowing this Report, the Project Team will prepare the first draft of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law.
