The City’s Planning Committee today approved a work plan that will guide development of a new Official Plan for Ottawa. The work plan lays out a public consultation process and timelines starting in early 2019, to produce a new Official Plan by the end of 2021.
On a related matter, the Committee also received Ottawa Next: Beyond 2036 – a report that will inform Official Plan discussions by identifying long-term trends, challenges and opportunities facing Ottawa.
Ottawa Next outlines a number of considerations and scenarios that will inform the Official Plan Review. It will also help to ensure that the City is adaptable and resilient in the future as it aims to be the most liveable mid-sized city in North America.
The Committee also approved its draft budget for 2019, which includes $64.8 million in operating funding and $11.8 million in capital funding related to planning. This includes $6.5 allocated to the Affordable Housing branch in the Committee’s operating budget, in addition to the $2 million currently allocated to the Ottawa Police Services budget, $1.5 million from other sources, $5 million from land sales and development charge reserves, for a total of $15 million. The planning portion of the capital budget also allocates $1.17 million to develop new affordable housing under the federal Investment in the Affordable Housing for Ontario program.
In support of vibrant neighbourhoods, starting April 1, patio fees would decrease by 50 per cent, down to $14.15 per square metre from April to October and $4.55 per square metre from November to March. This would save the average restaurant around $3,200 per year.
The Committee approved a new Site Plan Control application fee structure and procedural changes to make the approval process more efficient. The City uses the Site Plan Control process to ensure land development is safe, functional, and designed appropriately, and that it minimizes potential impacts on neighbouring properties. The proposed changes would streamline that process and add a new fee structure to better reflect and recover the real cost of this work.
As part of a settlement over Official Plan Amendment 180, the Committee approved changes that would allow development of a 19-hectare property at the northwest corner of Conroy Road and Johnston Road as a residential area rather than for employment purposes. Plans for the property include an enclosed ice arena, commercial buildings, open space and a residential community on a district energy system. The energy system would reuse waste heat from the arena and geothermal energy to heat the residences and demonstrate the benefits of an alternative energy system that replaces the need for private natural gas as the primary heating source.
Items approved at today’s Planning Committee meeting will go to Council on Wednesday, February 27.
