8 Special Council Minutes December 7, PUBLIC MEETING(S) Planning Department Report Number P Re: Application for Official Plan Amendment, File No.: OP Application for Zoning By-law Amendment, File No.: Z Lots 29 and 30, Plan 473; and Part Lot 8, Concession 4 22 and 32 Snowberry Lane; King City Owners: Ellen McCarthy and Tara McCarthy Agent: JKO Planning Services Inc., Jim Kotsopoulos (a) Presentation by Stephen Kitchen, Director of Planning Mr. Kitchen reviewed Planning Department Report P and the proposed applications concerning two (2) properties located on Snowberry Lane in the Kingscross community located in King City and situated north of King Road and east of Jane Street. The community consists of approximately 175 large estate lots which were primarily created by seven (7) registered plans ranging in date from 1956 to The community consists exclusively of single detached dwellings which are predominately serviced by private sewage disposal systems and private wells. The area contains an abundance of mature vegetation with various key natural heritage and hydrological features situated throughout, including wetlands, woodlots, fish lakes and watercourses. Mr. Kitchen advised that the property known as 22 Snowberry Lane supports a newer dwelling while the property known as 32 Snowberry Lane supports an older dwelling. The proposal would see a lot boundary adjustment whereby a 0.32 hectare piece of land from 22 Snowberry Lane be added to the 32 Snowberry Lane lot and a subsequent severance of this lot would result in a new lot measuring 0.62 hectares with metre of frontage while a retained portion of 32 Snowberry Lane would measure 0.76 hectares with metres of lot frontage. It is intended that the existing dwelling at 32 Snowberry Lane would be demolished and new dwellings constructed on the retained lands and the new lot. Access to all three (3) lots is proposed to be from Snowberry Lane. Mr. Kitchen commented that the purpose of the Official Plan Amendment application is to add site specific policies to the severance policies of the King City Community Plan to facilitate the creation of one (1) additional residential lot by way of consent. The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment application is to reduce the lot area minimum requirement of 0.8 hectares and the lot frontage minimum of 60 metres in the ER1 zone to provide for the consents. Mr. Kitchen noted the lands are subject to the Provincial Policy Statement (2014), the Greater Golden Horseshoe Growth Plan, the Provincial Greenbelt Plan, the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP), the Region of York Official Plan and the Township of King Official Plan (OPA 1970). (b) Presentation by Applicant Jim Kotsopoulos appeared on behalf of the applicants and commented on; the uniqueness of the subject lands, water and wastewater servicing, protecting the natural heritage features, and support for single detached dwellings without any variances to the standards of the neighborhood. Ms. McCarthy, one of the applicants, provided a slide presentation and commented on the following: the size of the proposed new lot relative to the smallest existing lot and narrowest frontages in Kingscross Estates; the King Community Plan policies; symmetry of the proposed parcel layout on Snowberry Lane; characteristics of the neighbourhood; floor area and footprints Minutes of the Special Council Meeting of Page 8 of 29

9 Special Council Minutes December 7, 2015 for new dwellings on the lots; compliance with setback requirements; existing and proposed frontage on subject lands; Kingscross Registered Plan 473; the non-precedent setting nature of the applications; historical changes in Kingscross since 1970; key natural heritage features; Hydro Geological reports; and comments from the TRCA and the Region of York. Ms. McCarthy provided the Clerk with forms signed by sixty-two (62) residents in the community in support of the proposed applications. Ms. McCarthy responded to questions. (c) Public Comments in Support (i) Wilson Markle Mr. Markle provided a slide presentation and commented on the community mapping of lots, the current pattern of planning, symmetry of existing and proposed lots, and existing driveways. Mr. Markle advised of his support of the application as in his opinion it is an improvement on the existing plan of Snowberry Lane and is an excellent upgrade to that part of the community. (ii) Devin Montreuil Mr. Montreuil commented he is a new owner in this area and has come into a community that is divided. Mr. Montreuil advised he supports this application as in his opinion this application makes sense, meets all of the planning criteria, and protects surrounding natural features. (iii) Mark Miller Mr. Miller advised of his support for the application. He commented there are many misconceptions in the community over the application and noted there have been variations in applications over a number of years in this area, and as in the past all applications need to be looked at on a case by case basis. (iv) Joanne Henry Ms. Henry advised of her support for the application and noted that the provisions of the Township s zoning by-law allow for 15% lot coverage in the area, potentially allowing homeowners to build 35,000 square foot homes in the subdivision due to the lot sizes. Ms. Henry notes that such homes would not be consistent with the community, but the application presented would be consistent. (v) Brian Prichard Mr. Prichard advised he supports this application and provided a slide presentation and commented on: a divided community; area road structure; protection of key natural heritage features; and land changes since (vi) Marko Corrente Mr. Corrente advised of his support for the application and commented that the proposed construction is beneficial to the neighbourhood and is glad to tell family and friends to come to Kingscross to live. Minutes of the Special Council Meeting of Page 9 of 29

10 Special Council Minutes December 7, 2015 (vii) Lisa Iafrate Ms. Iafrate advised of her support for the application and commented she would rather see two (2) new homes than what appears to be an empty lot, and as a number of the existing homes are over eighty (80) years old rebuilds will be necessary and will increase property values in the older sections of Kingscross. (viii) Susan Elliott Ms. Elliott advised she is a member of the Kingscross Ratepayers Association and is in support of the proposed application. (ix) Greg Donohue Mr. Donohue advised of his support for the application as new buildings will be a welcome addition to the neighbourhood, the quality of construction is high, and they will increase property values and improve aesthetics in this section of the community. (x) Joe Di Donato Mr. Di Donato advised of his support of the application and noted that the proposed changes will increase property values, that portions of the existing community are in need of upgrading, and that change in the community is inevitable. (xi) Steven Dengler Mr. Dengler advised he is a new property owner and was aware of this application before he purchased his property. He is in support of the application and is proud to move into an area that continually sees incredible investment in the community. (xii) Katherine Valkanas Ms. Valkanas advised of her support for the application and noted that renovations/rebuilds will only increase the property values in the area, and is glad to see modernization taking place in this section of the existing community. (xiii) Luca Corrente Mr. Corrente advised of his support for the application, that he supports the revitalization of the area, and that the severance will bring more balance to Snowberry Lane. (d) Public Comments in Opposition (i) Leslie Whicher Ms. Whicher advised that she is a co-chair of the Kingscross Estates Ratepayers Association (KERA), and advised that the new Board Members ran and won on a platform to oppose these types of applications and have since retained Donnelly Law to act on behalf of KERA. Ms. Whicher provided 196 signed forms from 102 homes in the community who are opposed to lot severances in Kingscross Estates. Minutes of the Special Council Meeting of Page 10 of 29

11 Special Council Minutes December 7, 2015 (ii) David Donnelly Mr. Donnelly, Donnelly Law, advised he is representing the Kingscross Estates Ratepayers Association (KERA) who are opposed to this application due to: the applications are not compatible with the existing residential development and character of this unique area; the three (3) proposed lots are to be smaller than permitted in the Official Plan; the proposed frontages will be up to 58% of the required lot frontage; the proposed infill development does not complement the scale or type of development in this neighbourhood; the need for staff to investigate in more detail on the extent and function of the significant woodland adjacent to the subject lands; need for further discussion with the Toronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA); and time required by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry to investigate Wood Turtle sightings in the area. Mr. Donnelly noted that a defamation suit recently filed against KERA members may be impacted by the Protection of Public Participation Act, 2015, also known as anti-slapp legislation (Strategic Litigation Against Public Participation), and that consideration of the application should be stayed until such time as the defamation suit can be resolved to ensure compliance with the Act. (iii) Mary Muter Ms. Muter, a Co-Chair of KERA, advised of her opposition to the application and commented on the following: how the application affects the King City Official Plan; the ecological impact on natural heritage; effects on endangered species; and contradictions to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law policies in place. (iv) Gord Whicher Mr. Whicher advised he is opposed to the application and commented that this application will most likely end up at the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) which will be a timely and costly venture for the Township. Mr. Whicher suggested staff have the applicant s natural heritage evaluation peer reviewed by an independent expert in order to obtain a second opinion should the application go to the OMB. Mr. Whicher also noted that re-investment will happen in the community regardless of whether the severance in question is granted, and that the application could open the door to more intensification in the area. (v) Stephanie D Orazio Ms. D Orazio advised she is opposed to this application as lot severances will not increase property values, the application will set a precedent, as development is on-going around this area, Kingscross is well established and does not need to be included in the intensification of King. (vi) Basheer Khan Mr. Khan advised he is not against development in general but opposes small severances and therefore does not support this application. (vii) Julie Nevin Ms. Nevin commented she has lived in the area for over twenty-four (24) years and has not seen a lot of change in the community in that time. She advised she is opposed to the application as it is a unique area and should be preserved. Minutes of the Special Council Meeting of Page 11 of 29

12 Special Council Minutes December 7, 2015 (viii) George Alkalay Mr. Alkalay advised he is opposed to the application as it will set a precedent and commented: bad planning divides people and the community; the need for better clarification as to what defines an estate subdivision; the need for clarity and guidance for this and future applications; and concerns for other estate subdivisions in King. (ix) Greg Locke Mr. Locke spoke on behalf of the Concerned Citizens of King Township (CCKT) in opposition of this application due to: negative effect on the character of the neighbourhood; impact on environmental lands and endangered species; exploitation of the original plan of subdivision; precedent setting; and its effects on the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP). (x) Brian DeWitte Mr. DeWitte commented he has no vested interest in this application but he opposes the application due to the increase in density and effects on the character of the neighbourhood. (xi) Rick Bedard Mr. Bedard commented that he is a board member of KERA and that he opposes the application. He noted that property values have increased all across the GTA, and that he does not support an application that does not consider the environment nor building to standards such as LEED. (xii) Oleksiy Nelyubin Mr. Nelyubin commented he supports change and improvement as long as the change follows the rules, but in this case he opposes the application due to the effects it will have on privacy, landscaping, and the environment. (xiii) Annette Hansen Ms. Hansen opposed the application and asked that the Township consider: the potential impact throughout the neighbourhood if the application establishes a precedent; the potential increased density in the area; the effect on the kettle ponds and ravines in the area and overall sustainability of the application and; the impact on existing wells and septic systems. (xiv) Michael Lamanna Mr. Lamanna advised he is opposed to the application and is concerned as to how it will affect future applications that may come forward. He commented that he is generally in support of progress and change, but that the end goals must be considered. (xv) Ian Hilley Mr. Hilley, KERA Secretary, advised of his opposition to the application as this area is a unique residential environment that does not benefit from generic development and dwelling design. Minutes of the Special Council Meeting of Page 12 of 29

13 Special Council Minutes December 7, 2015 (xvi) Mike Notaro Mr. Notaro advised he is opposed to the proposed application and expressed concerns with; a divided community; potential large house sizes; whether severances could occur on other lots, and; effects on existing wells and septic systems. (xvii) John Hollick Mr. Hollick advised of his opposition to the application stating that smaller lot sizes will be a mistake, that two (2) acre lots are the standard in this community and if someone wishes a smaller lot, there are other areas in the Township where they can purchase lots of that size. Mr. Hollick commented that Kingscross is considered the premier place to live in King. (xviii) Jeff Vriend Mr. Vriend advised he has resided in King for over thirty (30) years and loves the area and would like to see it preserved, and therefore he is opposed to further development in this community.
