By-Law (SING: council DATE: Monday, May 12, 1.986 REPORT #: PD-125-86 FILE #: DEV 85-36 SUBJECT: REZONING APPLICATION - M. VELTRI AND SON QUEEN STREET, BOWMANVILLE OUR FILE: DEV 85-36 RECOMMENDATIONS: It is respectfully recommended to Council the following: r I. THAT this report be received for information. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: 'On April 23, 1986, Regional Council approved Official Plan Amendment application 85-51/NB submitted by Mario Veltri and Son Limited to redesignate a 0.24 hectare ,parcel of land on Queen Street in Bowmanville to permit the development of a high density apartment building without a commercial component. The application was approved both as Amendment No. 4 to the Bowmanville Urban Area Plan and Modification No. 3 to the Official Plan of the Town of Newcastle. This ensures that the approval of the proposed development is not delayed by tying its approval to the approval of the Town' s Official Plan. The proposed development is also the subject of an application for rezoning and site plan approval - File: DEV 85-36. A Public Meeting with respect to the application was held on March 3, 1986. At that time, the General Purpose and Administration Committee considered Staff Report PO-53-86. This Report advised REPORT NO.: PD-125-86 Page 2 that the applicant had originally proposed the development of a 52 unit Senior Citizens apartment building, but had subsequently advised the Town that the application would be revised to a condominium proposal with approximately 32 units. Committee resolved (Resolution #GPA-194-86) to refer the application back to Staff pending submission of revised plans by the applicant. A revised plan showing a building with 33 apartments was submitted by the applicant on Parch 11, 1985. Inasmuch as the Official Plan Amendment has * been approved by Regional Council , Staff have prepared a by-law (attached hereto) for Council ' s approval . The proposed By-law would rezone the subject property to an 'V_6" zone. The Special Exception would recognize the higher density of the proposed development (140 units per hectare) . As well , the minimum Dwelling Unit Area for a one bedroom apartment is 1.0 square metres smaller than the standard requirement in the "R4" zone to recognize the smaller unit size proposed by the applicant. The standard "R4" zone provisions give 12 metres as the maximum permissible height, but further provide that a building in excess of 12 metres may be erected provided that the applicable yard requirements shall be increased in direct proportion -to the increase in building height above 1.2 metres . The apartment building as proposed would have a height of 20 metres, which would result in front, side and rear yard requirements of 12.5 metres. The proposed by-law recognizes the yard setbacks as proposed by the applicant, which are all below 1�.5 metres, but still are larger than the 7.5 metre minimum requirement given by the standard "R4" zone provisions. Staff have no difficulty with the reduced yard requirements inasmuch as the subject site is bounded on the west and north by commercially-zoned lands, and on the east by a private Community Hall . Although lands to the west are presently used for residential . . .3 I REPORT NO.: PD-1?5-86 Page 3 purposes, the westerly side yard of the proposed building is setback sufficiently to minimize any overshadowing, bearing in mind that the long term use of these lands is expected to be commercial . The only other residential development lies to the south across Queen Street, and the proposed building would not impinge upon the rear yard privacy areas related to these dwellings. Prior to a building permit being issued for the proposed development, it will be necessary for the applicant to enter into Development Agreements with the Town and the Region. espectfuyl- s itted, T.T.
