Scott McLean Legacy Outdoor Recreation Pad 27 Inspiration / idea : •In Nov 2004 Strategy Development team (Jane involved) produced a Strategic plan for Tillsonburg , in that document one of the recommended strategies was “The creation of an outdoor rink with use of the cooling capability of the existing arena could server as a spring-board for a winter carnival event and generally heighten Tillsonburg’ s profile and uniqueness as a skating destination.” • Scott’s passion for the game of hockey, his years of teaching his boys to skate along with many other kids, his years coaching minor hockey •His appetite and vision to improve our community with his work on various boards & committees always striving to expand what the town has to offer •JL Scott McLean Legacy fund was established on the basis that we could continue to give to things that were important to Scott, and his family. The idea of outdoor ice rink/ recreation pad seemed to be a good fit. 28 Vision of what will be built: • The McLean legacy fund along with fundraising efforts from the committee wish to build a 60 ft. by 120 ft. fully operational refrigerated ice rink 4-5 months a year, and the remainder of the season a street hockey rink, and three 60ft wide basketball courts with nets at various heights for all ages. •The purpose for this recreational pad, is to provide free opportunity for everyone to enjoy. Although the community centre will be responsible for the up keep and maintenance, it is not to be scheduled by ice users as a regular ice slot. Provides a safer alternative to skating on Lake Lisgar. •Idea would be a first come first serve basis. Suggested to post times such as family skate time, pick up hockey times, age group times, etc. to help elevate any safety issues with playing hockey and skating at the same time. 29 Projected Cost of project: •Quote from Custom Ice Inc out of Burlington, ON - builds outdoor rinks all over North America. Custom Ice proposes to provide a fully operational refrigerated ice rink floor and refrigeration system to create a 60’ x 120’ permanent outdoor ice skating rink in an 62’ x 124’ concrete pad suitable for up to 4-5 months of outdoor ice under typical weather conditions of 8-10°C (45-50°F) or less. Other optional accessories have also been included at the end of the budget proposal. Our budget proposal includes the following Main Components: 1. Ice Rink Floor and Sports Pad – Custom Ice will supply and install a 60’ wide x 120’ long permanent ice rink floor suitable for winter ice skating and summer sports activities. The floor will consist of the following components:  15 prefabricated piping rolls each 4’ wide x 120’ long and consisting of 5/8” tubes spaced at 2.0” c/c.  4” supply and return polyethylene header pipes welded and encased in concrete.  2 layers of 1” rigid floor insulation with taped seams.  One (1) 6 mil poly liner slip sheet.  2” high steel chairs spaced at 24” c/c to elevate the components in the floor.  2 layers of reinforcing steel, tied with 24” overlapped seams.  Supply all concrete for rink floor including 5000 psi concrete, superplastisizer, air entrainment and premium aggregate.  Form, place and finish concrete for rink floor including all labor, concrete pump and all required equipment.  Provide minimum 28 day wet felt curing of concrete.

The contents of the trailer being; donated mountain bikes for supported/unsupported community members, donated Medical Assistive Devices for the loan pool that supports Tillsonburg and surrounding communities and household items for those in need. The request is for permission to park another 53’ trailer beside the one presently spotted at the site. The inflow of items being donated has increased and continues to grow which leaves very little wiggle room in the one trailer. Oxford County Community Health Centre has already been approached about taking ownership of another trailer and they ready to do just that. There are a couple of points I need to address in regards to acquiring the trailer. The first trailer, I had personally purchased and donated to WACHC (at the time), funding for the second one will have to be raised. Getting a good level base will require some “A” gravel and a machine to level it out. No one has been approached on that point yet. As Council can understand, there is a little more process involved on my end to expedite. The need to have an assured site is the first step.

LOCATION: The subject lands are described as Part Lot 8, Concession 11 (Dereham), and Parts 1-3 of 41R- 6678, in the Town of Tillsonburg. The subject property is located on the west side of Quarter Town Line, between Glendale Drive and Park Place, and is known municipally as 275 Quarter Town Line. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: COUNTY OF OXFORD OFFICIAL PLAN: Schedule ‘T-1’ Town of Tillsonburg Land Use Plan Residential Schedule ‘T-2’ Town of Tillsonburg Residential Density Plan Low Density Residential & Open Space TOWN OF TILLSONBURG ZONING BY-LAW: Active Use Open Space Zone (OS2) SURROUNDING USES: surrounding uses to the east consist of single detached dwellings, woodland and significant valleylands are located to the south and west. Vacant residential land is located to the north. 49 File Number: A-02/17 Report Number 2017-132 Page 2 COMMENTS: (a) Purpose of the Application: The applicant is requesting relief from the above noted provision of the Town Zoning By-law to facilitate the construction of a detached accessory building on the subject lands. The subject property is approximately 5.16 ha (12.8 ac) in size and contains a clubhouse (circa. 2001), and cargo storage container, which is proposed to be removed. The applicant has indicated that the building will be used for storage purposes. Plate 1, Location Map (with Existing Zoning), shows the location of the subject property and the zoning in the immediate vicinity. Plate 2, 2015 Aerial Photo, provides an aerial view of the subject lands and surrounding properties. Plate 3, Close-up Aerial View, shows the existing buildings in the vicinity of the clubhouse and the approximate location of the proposed structure. Plate 4, Applicant’s Sketch, shows the location of the proposed accessory building. Plate 5, Proposed Building Elevations, provides the elevations of the proposed accessory building. (b) Agency Comments This application was circulated to a number of public agencies. No concerns were raised through the agency circulation process. Public Notice was mailed to surrounding property owners on May 12th, 2017. As of the writing of this report, no concerns have been received from the public. (c) Intent and Purpose of the Official Plan: The subject lands are designated ‘Low Density Residential’ & “Open Space” according to the Official Plan. Within the ‘Low Density Residential’ designation, permitted land uses are primarily low density housing forms including single detached dwellings, duplexes and street fronting town houses and accessory uses. Permitted uses within the Open Space designation include active and passive recreation including hiking/cycling pathways, conservation areas, sports fields, and other leisure areas. The use of the lands for an outdoor soccer facility and accessory uses thereto conforms to the ‘Low Density Residential’ & ‘Open Space’ policies of the Official Plan. (d) Intent and Purpose of the Zoning By-law: The subject property is zoned ‘OS2’, which permits a public park, parking lot, and other active recreational uses. 50 File Number: A-02/17 Report Number 2017-132 Page 3 Within lands zoned OS2, accessory buildings and structures are required to comply with the OS2 Zone provisions. In this instance, the required interior side yard width is 7.5 m (24.6 ft) and the applicant proposes to construct the accessory building for storage purposes 3.5 m (11.5 ft) from the interior lot line. The purpose of minimum interior side yards are to ensure that buildings are constructed an adequate distance from lot lines and structures on adjacent lots, and to ensure adequate area remains for building maintenance. In this instance, the proposed storage building will be 3.5 m (11.5 ft) from the interior lot line, allowing for sufficient space for maintenance and access. In this instance, the interior lot line is also the rear lot lines of residential lots within the Glendale West Subdivision. The proposed accessory building will comply with the other provisions of the Zoning By-Law. (e) Desirable Development/Use: Notwithstanding that the requested interior side yard width is less than what is typically permitted, in this instance, Planning staff are satisfied that the location of the proposed accessory structure is in keeping with the general purpose and intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, and is desirable development for the subject lands. The presence of the accessory building is unlikely to negatively impact any adjacent properties, given the presence of existing fencing and landscaping. It is also noted that the interior lot line for the soccer park property is in fact a rear lot line for the adjacent residential properties, and any dwellings will be located further from this lot line than a typical interior lot line. The proposed building will also be significantly more attractive and aesthetically pleasing than the existing cargo container currently used for storage that is being replaced by this accessory building. In light of the foregoing, it is the opinion of this Office that the requested relief maintains the general intent of the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law and can be given favorable consideration. RECOMMENDATION: That the Town of Tillsonburg Committee of Adjustment approve Application File A-02/17, submitted by Tillsonburg Minor Soccer Club, for lands described as Part Lot 8, Concession 11 (Dereham), and Parts 1-3 of 41R-6678, in the Town of Tillsonburg, as it relates to: 1. Relief from Section 22.2 – Active Use Open Space Zone (OS2), to decrease the minimum required interior side yard width from 7.5 m (24.6 ft) to 3.5 m (11.5 ft), to permit the construction of a detached accessory building. Subject to the following condition: i) A building permit for the proposed accessory building shall be issued within one year of the date of the Committee’s decision. As the proposed variance is: (i) a minor variance from the provisions of the Town of Tillsonburg Zoning By-law No. 3295; (ii) desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land; 51 File Number: A-02/17 Report Number 2017-132 Page 4 (iii) in-keeping with the general intent and purpose of the Town of Tillsonburg Zoning By-law No. 3295; and (iv) in-keeping with the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan.

The Province is seeking feedback for these proposed changes through EBR Registry posting no. 012-9694 and Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing proposal no. 17-MMA005. • Collectively, these proposed changes function to exempt second units in any new houses (single detached, semi-detached, and row housing) from development charges and implement standards for the second unit dealing with parking, occupancy, and date of construction that would override existing Area Municipal Zoning By-laws. • The report provides background on the County’s submissions to the Province on these matters to date and seeks feedback from the Area Municipalities on any local implications or concerns with respect to the proposed changes (e.g. development charge impacts, servicing, parking, enforcement etc.) DISCUSSION Background PLANNING ACT The Strong Communities Through Affordable Housing Act, 2011 introduced amendments to the Planning Act that required municipal official plans to contain policies that authorize the use of a second residential unit by authorizing, (a) the use of two residential units in a detached house, semi-detached house or rowhouse if no building or structure ancillary to the house contains a residential unit; and (b) the use of a residential unit in a building or structure ancillary to a detached house, semi-detached house or rowhouse if the house contains a single residential unit. Also, the Act gave authority to the Minister of Housing to make regulations authorizing the use of and prescribing requirements and standards (e.g. through future regulation) with respect to second residential units. On November 1st, 2016, the Ministry of Housing released a letter to Heads of Councils in Ontario reiterating the Province’s support for second units and their ability to supply additional Page 1 of 5 62 Report No: CP 2017-146 COMMUNITY PLANNING Council Date: May 23, 2017 affordable housing choices for Ontario residents. The letter also indicated that the Minister instructed staff to propose a regulation under the Planning Act setting out standards and/or limitations on official plan and/or zoning standards which would take precedence over existing municipal policies and standards which are deemed to be not in keeping with the permissive spirit and intent of the 2011 legislation. Through EBR posting 012-9694, the Province is now consulting on these proposed Planning Act regulations that will serve to prescribe requirements and standards with respect to the implementation and creation of second units. No proposed wording has yet been released for the proposed regulation, just a basic outline which is as follows: It is proposed that a regulation under s. 35.1(2)(b) of the Planning Act could, if made, set out requirements and standards with respect to second residential units referred to in s. 16 (3) of the Planning Act as follows: • A maximum of one parking space would be required for a second residential unit, where second residential units are permitted, which includes “tandem parking”, which would be defined as a parking space that is only accessed by passing through another parking space from a street, lane or driveway; • A second residential unit, where permitted in the zoning by-law, may be occupied by any person in accordance with s. 35(2) of the Planning Act, and, for greater clarity, regardless of whether the primary unit is occupied by the owner of the property; and • A second residential unit, where permitted in the zoning by-law, would be permitted without regard to the date of construction of the primary building. The regulation purpose is to facilitate implementation and creation of second units. DEVELOPMENT CHARGES ACT Further to the Planning Act Regulation amendment, additional legislative changes have recently been made to the Development Charges Act (through Bill 7, Promoting Affordable Housing Act, 2016) that require municipalities to exempt second units in “prescribed classes of proposed new residential buildings” from the type of development that the municipality may impose a development charge on. According to the Province, these changes are intended to help increase the supply and range of affordable housing options in Ontario communities, by recognizing secondary suites are a potential source of affordable rental housing and allow home owners to earn extra income from their property. The Province initiated a consultation on the Development Charges Act Regulation to accompany this change. Again, there is no proposed wording as of yet, but the intent of the new regulation would be to: - Prescribe single detached dwellings, semi-detached dwellings, and row houses on their own lots as classes of new residential buildings in which the creation of secondary suites would be exempt from development charges. - Prescribe residential dwellings ancillary to single detached dwellings, semi-detached dwellings, and row houses as a class of new residential buildings in which the creation of secondary suites would be exempt from development charges. Page 2 of 5 63 Report No: CP 2017-146 COMMUNITY PLANNING Council Date: May 23, 2017 - Restrict the gross floor area of secondary suites to being less than or equal to the gross floor area of the proposed primary dwelling, for the purpose of a development charge exemption. The Provincial consultation period for comments on the proposed Development Charges Act Regulation closes on June 9, 2017. Comments With these proposed legislative changes, and the continued promotion of second units, the Province hopes to increase the number of available second units which they feel will help contribute to the supply of private sector affordable housing choices in Ontario. Planning staff do not disagree that second units may contribute to the range of more affordable housing options and in providing an “appropriate range and mix of housing types and densities to meet the projected requirements of current and future residents” as required by the Provincial Policy Statement (2014). In fact, the County’s Official Plan policies are already very supportive of residential intensification and providing for a range of housing choices and affordability including converted dwellings, dwelling units in accessory buildings and purpose built duplexes and other multiple unit dwellings, in appropriate locations. That said, the County’s concerns are focused on the Province’s proposed limitations on municipal authorities with respect to establishing appropriate provisions and criteria for the establishment of secondary units and appropriate financing, without having a good understanding of the potential benefits, impacts or implications of such changes in each local municipal context. Municipalities are in the best position to determine what development criteria and limitations are necessary and/or appropriate to ensure such units remain clearly secondary to the main dwelling unit (e.g. do not simply become purpose-built duplexes), do not negatively impact municipal finances and are not established in areas where it may not be appropriate based on considerations such as the nature of existing development, availability of public services and/or infrastructure (e.g. sewage treatment capacity), parking impacts, compatibility with non-residential uses, transition areas, natural or man-made hazards or public safety considerations. As part of the consultation for Bill 7 (originally called Bill 204), the Promoting Affordable Housing Act, the County submitted comments on August 16, 2016 regarding a proposed change to Development Charges Act policy, which enabled this proposed regulation. The County conveyed a number of concerns with respect to the amendment to the Development Charges Act to exempt development charges (DCs) for second units in new homes. In particular, that many of the municipal costs for DC eligible growth-related services are directly related to household growth. Therefore, if every new or existing dwelling could potentially contain a second unit, it could result in a substantial increase in the number of households without generating the additional DC revenue necessary to off-set the cost of associated services. Additionally, staff posed the following concerns: Page 3 of 5 64 Report No: CP 2017-146 COMMUNITY PLANNING Council Date: May 23, 2017 • If the rationale for the amendment is to promote intensification, it was questioned how this would be accomplished over the long-term if newer, low density housing forms such as singles, semi’s and townhouses were exempt from DCs for the installation of a second unit. Higher density developments (e.g. apartments) make more intensive/efficient use of land and are also more likely to be affordable and place less demand on municipal services, yet they would still be required to pay the full DCs on all the dwelling units in the development. • If the rationale of the change is to promote affordable housing, again we raised the question as to how second units in a new/newer low density are more affordable than units in higher density developments (e.g. apartments) that aren’t afforded such DC exemptions. • There is no guarantee that second units will be affordable, and may even serve to drive an increase in the price of single unit dwellings due to the added income potential from a second unit. The actual (versus perceived) costs and benefits for homeowners and the financial impacts on municipalities for purpose-built second units should be further researched and analyzed in advance of this amendment going forward. The County also submitted high level comments with respect to the Provincial consultation on the next edition of the Building Code on December 21, 2016 based on input from local Chief Building Officials. The comments requested that clarity be provided to differentiate between the terms ‘secondary suite’ and ‘second residential unit’, as the use of these two separate terms may create confusion when municipal staff provide guidance to homeowners and/or when proposed two-unit homes are being evaluated by building officials. With respect to the current consultation phase, it is expected that the County will reiterate the above noted concerns as well as provide a number of additional comments specific to the proposed Planning Act regulation, generally as follows: - Questioning why the Province would prevent municipalities from requiring more than one parking space (or non-tandem space) for a second unit where the municipality deems it to be necessary or appropriate. Typically, when requiring only one parking space for a unit (especially in a small urban centre) often leads to unnecessary on-street parking and on-lawn parking issues. The County will request that local municipalities should maintain control over the required parking for second units as they are in the best position to analyze the specific locational characteristics that will impact parking need. - Requesting clarification on whether such units are intended to contribute toward a municipality’s minimum residential density targets. The concern being that new houses could simply be constructed with a ‘ready to go’ second unit without any guarantee that the second unit will actually be occupied. If such dwellings are then considered two dwelling units for the determination of residential density, it could inadvertently result in more inefficient use of land by allowing for the creation of larger detached dwelling lots that still meet the minimum residential density requirements (based on the assumption of 2 units). Similarly it may also reduce the need to incorporate other denser (and more appropriate affordable housing forms) in order to achieve minimum residential density targets. Page 4 of 5 65 Report No: CP 2017-146 COMMUNITY PLANNING Council Date: May 23, 2017 - Questioning why the regulation would restrict municipalities from requiring the primary unit to be owner-occupied before permitting a second unit, if deemed to be necessary or appropriate. This would seem to be one of the best ways to ensure the second unit remains ‘secondary’ in nature, rather than simply a purpose-built duplex. - Expressing concern with respect to the potential impact of such units on the capacity of water and waste water services/systems. If two-unit dwellings are permitted ‘as of right’ it could have a substantial impact on the planned uncommitted reserve capacity for treatment of water and wastewater, particularly in smaller rural settlements with smaller systems. It could trigger the need for a substantial and costly plant expansion in a community that was not expected to accommodate further growth. The Planning office is also seeking input on this matter from Corporate Services and Public Works. County staff appreciate hearing any comments that local CBOs and other staff may have with respect to: • The proposed provincial limitations on parking, occupancy and date of construction; • Ways to ensure second units are secondary to the main unit, and remain differentiated from purpose built duplexes; • Any relevant enforcement concerns, Building and/or Fire Code implications, and off-site impact considerations. Conclusions As stated, a response to the Province is currently being drafted for these proposed regulatory changes and input from Area Municipalities is welcome and encouraged to ensure the County’s concerns are adequately communicated. County staff intend to reiterate the position that local municipalities should have both the authority and discretion to determine whether and where second units are permitted and to establish appropriate definitions and criteria for such units, as well as to determine the circumstances under which it may be warranted to exempt such units from Development Charges. Not providing municipalities with this discretion seems to run contrary to other Provincial initiatives to increase local authority and powers with respect to determining how best to promote intensification and provide additional affordable housing.

Hough, RPP Director Page 5 of 5 66 67 Report Title Oxford County Update Report No. MYR 17-04 Author Stephen Molnar - MAYOR Meeting Type Council Meeting Council Date May 23, 2017 Attachments RECOMMENDATION: THAT Council receives report MYR 17-04 as information. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to provide information regarding any reports and recommendations from local representation at Oxford County Council. CONSULTATION/COMMUNICATION As a result of the effort to expand access to knowledge and information for Town Council and local stakeholders, this report is intended to provide material on activities that transpire at Oxford County Council that may have an impact on the Town of Tillsonburg. Further, this type of report will further satisfy mandates as reinforced in the Community Strategic Plan to provide for a more accessible and open governance model. INFORMATION • As approved in Report PW 2017-23, the final stage in completing North Street reconstruction in Tillsonburg will be underway this summer (June – November) with Council’s approval of the construction award to Elgin Construction. The $5.7 million cost, approved as part of the 2017 budget, encompasses road, sewers and watermain. A new sanitary pumping station is also earmarked as part of the project’s completion. • Additional County construction projects in 2017 include; o Tillson Avenue Resurfacing (May – July) o Potters Road Reconstruction (July – November) o Christie Street Watermain Reconstruction (June – October) o North Street (West) Watermain Relining (August – November) Page 1 / 2 REPORTmayorCOOXmay2017 68 • As supported in Report CS 2017-12, local municipalities will be contacted for input on options concerning any anticipated amendment to existing Vacant Unit Rebate Program. If adopted, over a planned three year phase in period, there would be a projected net retention of tax revenues based on the decreased rebate for vacant commercial and industrial space. • The issue of the opportunity of Shared Court Security costs (CS 2016-25) continues to be under deliberation. Subsequent to an earlier decision to not support further review for County-wide financial contributions, a Motion for Reconsideration was heard (and adopted) on May 10, 2017, that will see a Committee struck involving the County, Woodstock PSB and local non-County Councillors from each municipality with an OPP PSB.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Oxford County has secured ownership of the former CASO rail corridor through Tillsonburg. The County has extended an invitation for the Town to enter into an Agreement so that the corridor can be incorporated into the Town’s trail system. BACKGROUND The former CASO rail corridor extends through the entire breadth of Tillsonburg between the East and West boundaries of the Town. This corridor has been identified in Tillsonburg’s Trails Master Plan and Oxford County’s Trails Master Plan as a priority trail pending property acquisition. The County has recently concluded a transaction to secure the property and would consider entering into a Land Use Agreement with the Town so that the corridor can be used as a recreational trail and active transportation link. The County wishes to retain ownership so it can be used as a utility corridor, and as such will be responsible for any and all culvert or bridge maintenance required along the corridor. The overpass bridge at the junction of the Trans-Canada Trail and the Fourth-to-North Trail is a shared responsibility between the County and Southlands Rail. The County is also placing access control gates along the corridor on the East side of Quarter Town Line, both sides of Broadway, and between the overpass bridge and Tillson Avenue. The Town would assume responsibility for maintenance of the trail. If the Town wishes to enter the usage Agreement and bring the trail up to a usable standard, the cost of brushing and establishing the trail surface will be the responsibility of the Town. The length of corridor East of Quarter Town Line to the Trans-Canada-Trail is approximately 1.7km. The corridor West of Quarter Town Line is not needed for trail connectivity at this time and therefore is not being considered for this Agreement. The County’s contractors that are brushing Page 1 / 2 RCP 17-32 - CASO Corridor Trail Extensio 126 and building the Trans-Canada Trail are prepared to extend the same cost to the Town for the additional 1.7km. The cost for brushing, constructing the trail surface and placing appropriate signage along this section is expected to be less than $60,000. CONSULTATION/COMMUNICATION Staff from both the Town of Tillsonburg and Oxford County have reviewed the Agreement. FINANCIAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE The current Development Charges Study includes $135,000 in planned new trail development between 2014 and 2023. Of this, 90% or $121,500 is expected to be paid for by development charges. To date, this Council has spent or committed $47,700 of that for implementation of the Trails Master Plan and for some of the pathway components of the Celebration Plaza Project. The remaining $73,800 is available for use towards 90% of the costs on this project. The other 10% is recommended to be funded from the Parklands Reserve Trust.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Council requested that staff review pumptrack signage size and construction and circulate the information to Council before construction. BACKGROUND Signage is required at the Kolin Smith Memorial Pumptrack. Preliminary designs were provided to Council in January. Council requested that the proposed size be reviewed and an update provided to Council before any signs were constructed. The three-part sign is intended to recognize donors to the pumptrack construction in addition to providing the do’s and don’ts for pumptrack use and other safety instructions. The preliminary design deployed three 4’x8’ panels. The updated design deploys three 4’x5’ panels. This panel size is consistent with other multi-panel signage used by the Town along recreational trails, where two 4’x5’ panels are used. If no further concerns are raised by Council, these signs will be installed as soon as possible. CONSULTATION/COMMUNICATION The content of the signs was developed in consultation with risk management specialists from Frank Cowan Company and Direct Bearing Consulting. The design was prepared by Town staff. FINANCIAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE The funds to cover the cost to produce and install these signs and the donor recognition formed part of the pumptrack project budget. There is $2025 available for these costs.
