Motions of Which Notice Has Been Previously Given

18.1

G. Gower - Retain the Minor Corridor permissible heights in accordance with the November 2022 Ministry approval of the City’s new Official Plan

• Moved by G. Gower
  Seconded by M. Sutcliffe

  WHEREAS upon approval of the City’s new Official Plan in October 2021, Council approved a reduction in the proposed height limit within Minor Corridors to a consistent four-storeys in all Minor Corridors; and

  WHEREAS the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing approved the City’s Official Plan in November 2022 with several adjustments including revising Minor Corridor permissible heights as follows:

  • Downtown Minor Corridors, from 4 to 9 storeys
  • Inner Urban Minor Corridors, from 4 to 6 storeys
  • Outer Urban Minor Corridors, from 4 to 6 storeys
  • Suburban Minor Corridors, from 4 to 7 storeys; and

  WHEREAS the Provincially approved height limits were consistent with staff recommendations at the time Council was considering the new Official Plan; and

  WHEREAS under Council direction, staff have been rapidly advancing the development of the new Comprehensive Zoning By-Law that implements the approved Official Plan; and

  WHEREAS reverting back to the 2021 approved height limits would create a delay in the Zoning By-Law development as well as impact applications which were already submitted since the Ministry approval of the Official Plan; and

  WHEREAS the Council approved Municipal Housing Pledge as well as the City’s application to the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s Housing Accelerator Fund rely on increased opportunities to create housing units throughout the City; and

  WHEREAS as part implementing the City’s New Official Plan through the development of a new Comprehensive Zoning By-Law, it be believed that a “made-in-Ottawa” solution could lead to higher densities across the City in a more balanced approach than designating four units as of right city-wide; and

  WHEREAS the Infrastructure Master Plan recommendations will include an Infrastructure Capacity Management Program to ensure adequate capacity in existing local pipe systems to support city-wide intensification proposals; and

  THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Council request that the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing retain the Minor Corridor permissible heights in accordance with the November 2022 Ministry approval of the City’s new Official Plan.
