The Riverside South community could soon have a new school for grades seven to 12. The City’s Planning Committee today approved a zoning amendment that would let the Ottawa Carleton District School Board proceed with the new secondary school at the corner of Earl Armstrong and Spratt roads.
The school would include 48 classrooms, a full-size sports field with a track, an outdoor classroom, a mini sports field and two basketball courts. The proposal also includes plans for a daycare on the south side of the school building.
The Committee approved Official Plan and zoning amendments to allow development of a 25-storey building on Rideau Street, just west of the Rideau River. The building would include more than 310 dwelling units along with retail space on the ground floor.
The amendments increase permitted density and height, and in exchange the applicant would invest nearly $800,000 in improvements to area parks and road safety, as well as to cycling and pedestrian connections. In addition, at least 10 per cent of units would be geared to larger households, providing a minimum of 850 square feet of living area and two bedrooms. The applicant would deliver a publicly accessible bike repair station as well, along with public art, at least two tenant electrical car charging stations and parking spaces for a car-sharing service.
The Committee also approved a two-year extension to permit public parking within the northeast portion of the lot behind the Notre Dame Cathedral Basilica on Sussex Drive. The site has been used for paid public parking since 2005 and approval would allow that use to continue. The Committee also moved to establish a working group involving the City, the Archdiocese and the community to explore redevelopment opportunities and local parking requirements over the next two years.
Recommendations from today’s meeting will rise to Council on Wednesday, February 9.
