REPORT NO.: PSD-082-02 PAGE 2 1.0 APPLICATION DETAILS 1.1 The Municipality has received requests from 3 individuals for partial exemption to the Interim Control By-law adopted in January 2003 (Attachment 1). The requests are as follows: . Dana Grant - 234 King Street East, to permit a martial arts studio and video reproduction business in existing vacant 1850 fe floor space; . Sib-Jellnvestments - 241 King Street East, to permit a dental office to occupy a 1200 ft2 unit previously used by Mary Brown Chicken; . 591617 Ontario Limited - 240-242 King Street East, to permit a dance studio in a vacant existing 1000 te floor space. 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 On January 6, 2003, Council adopted an Interim Control By-law 2003-001 for the area identified as the King Street East Corridor in Bowmanville (See Attachment 2). The Interim Control By-law has the effect of suspending the zoning rights in place on the day prior to the adoption of the Interim Control By-law, and limits the permitted uses to those specified in the By-law for a period of one (1) year. In addition to uses legally established on the date of passage of the By-law, properties subject to the By-law may only be used for a limited number of uses including a bakery, a day nursery, a laundry- coin operated, a printing or publishing establishment, and service shop light. 2.2 In addition to adopting the Interim Control By-law, Council authorized staff to undertake a land use and urban design, and transportation study of the lands subject to the Interim Control By-law. The purpose of the study is to: i) Assess the appropriateness of existing land use designations and development policies within the King Street East Corridor Study Area; ii) Assess the appropriateness of existing zone provisions, including both permitted uses and development regulations; iii) Develop a transportation and properly access management plan that can safely and efficiently accommodate traffic from the anticipated growth of Clarington; iv) Prepare an urban design plan for future development and redevelopment in the Study Area; and, v) Prepare an implementation strategy for future growth in this area. 2.3 A total of five (5) appeals to the Interim Control By-law were received within the sixty (60) day appeal period. Staff were able to negotiate the withdrawal of two of the 69937 , <. REPORT NO.: PSD-082-02 PAGE 3 appeals, Bowmanville Mall and Jean-Coutu Group Ltd. (243 King Street East and 205 King Street East respectively), subject to certain use exemptions to the Interim Control By-law. The appeal period from these exemptions recently expired and no appeals were received. At this time an Ontario Municipal Board hearing has been scheduled to commence June 23, 2003 to hear the appeals from the passing of the Interim Control By-law, as well as the appeal by TDL respecting their site plan application and the removal of holding symbol from the C2 zoning of this site. The KFC appeal of their site plan application is scheduled for August 26 and 27, 2003. 3.0 DANA GRANT - 234 KING STREET EAST 3.1 This properly has a two-storey building with a total floor area of approximately 8000 te. The properly has a frontage of 21.11 m on King Street East. At the time of the passing of the Interim Control By-law the majority of the building was used for office space, although the rear half of the first floor was vacant (1850 ft2). The last previous tenant in the vacant portion of the building was an office type use. Staff have had numerous discussions with Mr. Grant since the passing of the Interim Control By-law as to what uses may be permitted to occupy the vacant floor space. In his application, as revised, Mr. Grant has requested a partial exemption from the By-law to permit the vacant portion of the building to be used as a martial arts studio and a business dealing with audio and video reproductions. 3.2 The martial art studio is generally family oriented with its principal business being done after school hours and on weekends. These hours are generally not in conflict with the periods in which the existing uses in the building are most active. The 40 existing parking spaces provided on site are sufficient to acc9mmodate the existing office tenants as well as the proposed martial arts studio and video reproductions use, based on the requirements of the zoning by-law. The video reproductions business has been described as a service that is predominantly undertaken over the internet or by mail, and few customers attend the premises. When the application was filed, a tanning salon was included in the list of uses proposed to be exempted. This use is no longer being pursued. 69938 , , , - REPORT NO.: PSD-082-02 PAGE 4 3.3 The request for partial exemption for 234 King Street East has been reviewed with Engineering Services and the Municipality's Transportation consultant, Totten Sims Hubicki. They advised that in their opinion, granting the partial exemption would not compromise the corridor study being undertaken. 4.0 SIB-JEL INVESTMENTS L TO. - 241 KING ST. E 4.1 241 King Street East is the end unit in a mixed used development with 6 commercial tenants on the ground floor and 2 floors of residential above. Access to the property is from Simpson Avenue. The properly does not have direct access to King Street East. The parking area in front is developed jointly with the property to the west, 225 King Street East (IGA), which only has access to Frank Street. The applicant is proposing to replace an existing eating establishment use, Mary Brown's Chicken with a dental office. 4.2 The request for partial exemption from the Interim Control By-law has been reviewed with Engineering Services and Totten Sims Hubicki. In as much as the existing development does not have direct access to King Street East, and the peak hour traffic flows are being reduced, there is no objection from a traffic perspective. In as much as the unit is within an existing plaza providing sufficient parking based on the existing zoning requirements, there is no objection to the requested exemption. Granting of the partial exemption would not compromise the corridor study. 5.0 TONY & GEORGE TZALlS ( ONTARIO L TO.) - 240-242 KING ST. E 5.1 240-242 King Street East has a building of approximately 2760 tf on a parcel with 40 ft. of frontage and a lot area of 0.28 acres. The front half of the building is rented by a take out pizza place. The applicant's have requested partial exemption from the Interim Control By-law to permit a dance studio in the rear half of the building. 5.2 Staff have reviewed this request for partial exemption and determined that the proposed new use would require a total of 11 parking spaces. The owner submitted a sketch in support of the request showing how parking could be accommodated on site in the rear 69939 ~ REPORT NO.: PSD-082-02 PAGE 5 of the building. Access to the parking was based on the use of the vacant abutting properly to the west as a road. The proponents do not have legal access over the abutting lands to the west, and based on the survey submitted, there is only 8 ft between the existing building and the properly line to provide access to the rear of the building. This does not satisfy the Zoning By-law minimum of 6 metres (19.68 ft) for 2- way traffic. The applicant is only able to accommodate five (5) parking spaces in front of the existing building. 5.3 In consideration of the deficiency in parking it is recommended that the request for exemption to the Interim Control By-law by Mr Tzalis be denied. 6.0 CONCLUSION 6.1 Based on the comments contained in the report, it is recommended that the request for exemption for 234 and 241 King Street East be approved and that the proposed By- laws contained in Attachments 3 and 4 be adopted and that the request for partial exemption for 240 King Street East be denied.
