Agenda Item # Page # r-lm 39T-06501/Z-7078/02-6710 Draft Approved Plan 39T-98513 Draft plan approval was granted by the Approval Authority on August 25, 1999. On September 8, 1999, A. Milliken Heisey of Kerzner, Papaz, MacDermid on behalf of CN Rail appealed the Decision of the City of London Approval Authority. The Board allowed the appeal of the draft plan of subdivision in part, and granted draft approval subject to conditions. The Ontario Municipal Board did not give the Approval Authority the power to grant final approval of this plan of subdivision (or any of its phases). Therefore, when each of the phases were brought forward for registration, the final approval report and plans were forwarded to the Ontario Municipal Board for final approval. Phase I of the plan of subdivision (33M 435) consisted of 65 single detached dwelling lots, 20 street townhouse blocks, 1 stormwater management block, 1 block to provide access to the stormwater management block, 1 safety/noise bermlbarrier block, 1 walkway block and several 0.3 m (1 ft) reserve blocks all served by the extension of Silversmith Street, Beaverbrook Avenue and by one new street. This plan was registered on November 28, 2001. Phase II (33M 460) consisted of 53 single detached dwelling lots, 1 multi-family block and several reserve blocks all served by an extension of Whetherfield Street, Beaverbrook Avenue and 2 new streets. Phase 111 consisted of 26 single detached dwelling lots, 2 multifamily blocks and several reserve blocks all served by an extension of Whetherfield Street and the creation of one new street, being Baird Street. The property owner is currently in process of having the 4Ih and final phase of this plan registered (which also included a potion of lands within draft approved plan 39T-99512). Draft Approved Plan 39T-99512 This plan was granted draft approval by the Approval Authority on August 26'h, 1999. The draft plan approval was appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board by Henry John and lngeborg Fennema. The Fennema's appealed the draft plan together with the concurrent Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments based on the proposal to classify the Beaverbrook Avenue extension as a primary collector road. Negotiations between parties resulted in the Beaverbrook Avenue being classified as a secondary collector road. This together with other minor modifications to the plan and revised conditions were presented to the Ontario Municipal Board on March 6, 2000. While the Board agreed with the modifications, it did not issue a DecisionlOrder on the draft plan until after a hearing on August 28, 2000 as this plan was dependant on the draft plan of subdivision to the south, owned by Oakridge Crossing development Limited, which was also the subject of an appeal. The Decision/Order, issued on September 15, 2000, dismissed the appeal by Mr. And Mrs. Fennema and granted approval to the modified draft plan of subdivision subject to modified conditions. The Board also granted authority for final approval for the plan of subdivision to the City of London Approval Authority. Phase one of this subdivision consisted of two commercial blocks served by a new secondary collector road (Blythwood Road) and was registered on February 1, 2001. Phase 2 consisted of 26 single detached dwellings served by Beaverbrook Avenue and was registered on May 3, 2002. Phase 3 consisted of 76 single detached dwelling lots served by Capulet Lane and Sandcherry Street; 1 multi-family residential block with frontage on Beaverbrook Avenue, Capulet Lane and Blythwood Road; 1 open space/park block; and 1 walkway block. Phase 3 was registered on August 26, 2002. Phase 4 consisted of 80 single detached dwelling lots and 1 multi-family block served by Blythwood Road. Phase 5 consisted of 167 single family lots, one (1) park block, one (1) walkway block served by Beaverbrook Avenue, Oakcrossing Road, Whetherfield Street, Maplewood Street and Maplewood Lane. This phase was registered in October 2005. 5

39T-06501/2-707810Z-6710 Current Application The applicants have requested revisions to the draft approved plan which will assist in alleviating storm and sanitary sewer design issues in the remaining phases of the development. The redesign also utilizes a traffic roundabout instead of a bus bay to reduce cut through traffic and provide traffic calming measures. The use of the roundabout in the revised plan with an additional roundabout in the Deer Ridge Subdivision to the west will deter cut through traffic and provide a better street layout for traffic circulation within the Beaverbrook area. Based on the extent of the revisions (Le. substantial changes to the road pattern and the residential blocks) and the fact that these lands are co-owned it was determined that a new application for draft approval would be the most appropriate method to address the changes contemplated by both owners. I SIGNIFICANT DEPARTMENT/AGENCY COMMENTS I] Canadian Pacific Railway The proposed development is located adjacent to our Windsor Subdivision, which is classified as a principle main line. Canadian Pacific Railway is not in favour of residential developments adjacent to our right-of-way as this land use is not compatible with railway operations. The health, safety and welfare of future residents could be adversely affected by railway activities. However, to ensure the safety and comfort of adjacent residents and to mitigate as much as possible the inherent adverse environmental factors, we request that the following standard CPR requirements be considered should this application progress to Draft Plan Approval. PRINCIPAL MAIN LINE REQUIREMENTS 1. Berm, or combination berm and noise attenuation fence, having extensions or returns at the ends, to be erected on adjoining property, parallel to the railway right-of-way with construction according to the following: a) Minimum total height 5.5 metres above top-of-rail; b) Berm minimum height 2.5 metres and side slopes not steeper than 2.5 to 1. c) Fence, or wall, to be constructed without openings and of a durable material weighing not less than 20 kg. per square metre (4 Ib/sq.ft.) of surface area. No part of the bermhoise barrier is to be constructed on railway property A clause should be inserted in all offers of purchase and sale or lease, and be registered on title or included in the lease for each dwelling affected by any noise and vibration attenuation measures, advising that any berm, fencing, or vibration isolation features implemented are not to be tampered with or altered, and further that the owner shall have the sole responsibility for and shall maintain these features. Dwellings must be constructed such that the interior noise levels meet the criteria of the appropriate Ministry. A noise study should be carried out by a professional noise consultant to determine what impact, if any, railway noise would have on residents of proposed subdivisions and to recommend mitigation measures, if required. The Railway may consider other measures recommended by the study. 2. 3. Setback of dwellings from the railway right-of-way to be a minimum of 30 metres. While no dwelling should be closer to the right-of-way than the specified setback, an unoccupied building, such as a garage, may be built closer. The 2.5 metre high earth berm adjacent to the right-of-way must be provided in all instances. Ground vibration transmission to be estimated through site tests. If in excess of the acceptable levels, all dwellings within 75 metres of the nearest track should be protected. The measures employed may be: a) Support the building on rubber pads between the foundation and the occupied 6

Agenda Item # Page # nr----l 39T-0650112-7078102-6710 structure so that the maximum vertical natural frequency of the structure on the pads is 12 Hz; b) c) Insulate the building from the vibration originating at the railway tracks by an intervening discontinuity or by installing adequate insulation outside the building, protected from the compaction that would reduce its effectiveness so that vibration in the building became unacceptable; or Other suitable measures that will retain their effectiveness over time. 4. 5. 6. 7. A clause should be inserted in all offers of purchase and sale or lease and in the title deed or lease of each dwelling within 300m of the railway right-of-way, warning prospective purchasers or tenants of the existence of the Railway's operating right-of-way; the possibility of alterations including the possibility that the Railway may expand its operations, which expansion may affect the living environment of the residents notwithstanding the inclusion of noise and vibration attenuating measures in the design of the subdivision and individual units, and that the Railway will not be responsible for complaints or claims arising from the use of its facilities and/or operations. Any proposed alterations to the existing drainage pattern affecting railway property must receive prior concurrence from the Railway, and be substantiated by a drainage report to be reviewed by the Railway. A 1.83 metre high chain link security fence be constructed and maintained along the common property line of the Railway and the development by the developer at his expense, and the developer is made aware of the necessity of including a covenant running with the lands, in all deeds, obliging the purchasers of the land to maintain the fence in a satisfactory condition at their expense. Any proposed utilities under or over railway property to serve the development must be approved prior to their installation and be covered by the Railway's standard agreement. Staff response: Development Engineering London Limited has provided a noise assessment to address previous phases of this development. Staff contend that an addendum to the previous noise and vibration assessment will address the issues raised by CP. Also, the addendum will provide additional information on the required noise attenuation barrier height. As a result the conditions of draft approval will require a 2.5 metre high safety berm and staff will be relying on the noise study addendum to address fhe required height of the noise barrier. Also, the zoning recommended for those blocks which abut the CP rail ROW will include a special provision to address the required 30 metre setback to dwelling units. Canadian National Railway CN requires the owner to insert the following warning clause in all development agreements, offers to purchase, agreements of Purchase and Sale or Lease and include in a Noise Impact Statement: "Warning: Canadian National Railway Company or its assigns or successors in interest has or have a right-of-way within 300 metres from the land the subject hereof. There may be alterations to or expansions of the rail facilities on such right-of-way in the future including the possibility that the railway or its assigns or successors as aforesaid may expand its operations, which expansion may affect the living environment of the residents in the vicinity, notwithstanding the inclusion of any noise and vibration attenuating measures in the design of the development and individual dwelling(s). CN will not be responsible for any complaints or claims arising from use of such facilities andlor operations on, over or under the aforesaid right-of-way." They also recommend that the Owner engage a consultant to undertake an analysis of rail noise and provide abatement measures necessary to achieve the maximum level limits set by the Ministry of Environment.

Apda item #, Page # 39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 Staff response: The conditions of draff approval will require that a warning clause be place on title to advise potential purchasers of the proximity. of the CN rail line. Given the distance between the closest point of the rail line and the CN rail right of way (approximately 265 metres), the existing noise attenuation fence and the proposed residential development between the rail line and the subject lands, staff contend that a noise study is not necessay Canada Post Corporation The owner is required to: a) include on all offers of purchase and sale, a statement that advises the prospective purchaser: i) that the hornelbusiness mail delivery will be from a designated Centralized Mail Box. ii) that the developers/owners be responsible for officially notifying the purchasers of the exact Centralized Mail Box locations prior to the closing of any home sales. b) the owner further agrees to: i) ii) iii) iv) work with Canada Post to determine and provide temporary suitable Centralized Mail Box locations which may be utilized by Canada Post until the curbs, boulevards and sidewalks are in place in the remainder of the subdivision. Install a concrete pad in accordance with the requirements of, and in locations to be approved by, Canada Post to facilitate the placement of Community Mailboxes Identify the pads above on the engineering servicing drawings. The pads are to be poured at the time the sidewalk and/or curb installation within each phase of the plan of subdivision, determine the location of all centralized mail receiving facilities in cooperation with Canada Post and to indicate the location of the centralized mail facilities on appropriate maps, information boards and plans. Maps are also to be prominently displayed in the sales office@) showing specific Centralized Mail Facility locations. L1 c) Canada Post's multi-unit policy, which requires that the ownerldeveloper provide the centralized mail facility at their own expense, will be in affect for buildings and complexes with a common lobby, common indoor or sheltered space. Upper Thames River Conservation Authority No objection to this proposal. Engineering and Environmental Services Department (EESD) Sanitary The Owner will be required to connect the proposed sanitary sewers to serve this plan to the existing 300 mm (12) sanitary sewer at Beaverbrook Avenue and Oakcrossing Road. Registration of this plan and subsequent development is subject to the availability of sewage treatment capacity at the Greenway Pollution Control Plant. As there is an intensification in density of portions of the subject lands through the proposed 8

Agenda Item # Page # r - l l 39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 changes in zoning, the Owner's professional engineer shall undertake a sanitary capacity study of the downstream sewers to ensure there is enough capacity to support the changes in land use, all to the satisfaction of the City Engineer, and at no cost to the City. Stormwater Manaqement The subject lands are located within the Mud Creek Subwatershed and the storm outlet for these lands is the Mud Creek via the existing 1250 mm (54) storm sewer on Beaverbrook Avenue at Oakcrossing Road which outlets to the existing "Capulet Lane" regional Stormwater Management (SWM) Facility located within registered plan 33M-435. Water The Owner must connect the proposed watermains to serve this plan to the municipal water system, namely, to the existing municipal 400 mm (16) diameter water main on Sarnia Road. The Owner must provide "looping" of the water main system constructed for this subdivision to Sarnia Road and the subdivision to the west, all to the specifications of the City Engineer. Prior to applying for the 81st building permit, the Owner shall have it's professional engineer deliver confirmation that the watermain system has been looped. The Owner shall obtain all necessary approvals from the City Engineer for individual servicing of blocks in this subdivision, prior to the installation of any water services for the blocks. Transportation The owner must construct a raised median, including any necessary related pavement Widening on Sarnia Road to restrict turning movements at Street 'A' to rights in/out only to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Street 'A from Sarnia Road to 45 metres (150) south is to have a minimum road pavement width (excluding gutters) of 12.0 metres (36.1') with a minimum road allowance of 22.5 metres (75'). The widened road on Street 'A is to be equally aligned from the centerline of the road and tapered back to the 9.5 metres (31.2) of road pavement width (excluding gutters) and 21.5 metres (70') of road allowance width for this street with 30 metre (100') long tapers on both street lines. If a parking plan is required for this subdivision, and increased pavement width is proposed to accommodate the parking plan, it is the Transportation Divisions preference that the road allowance width be increased a corresponding amount in order to maintain the standard 6.0 m wide boulevards on either side of the road. Further, the Owner shall make arrangements with the City for parking restrictions on one side of any street that requires an on-street parking plan as identified by the General Manager of Planning and Development, to the specifications and satisfaction of the City Engineer. The Owner shall register this requirement on the title of all affected lot in this plan upon registration of the plan in order to notify potential homeowners of this requirement. The Owner is required to dedicate sufficient land to widen Sarnia Road to 18.0 metres (59.06") from the centerline of the original road allowance. The Owner is reouired to dedicate 6.0 m x 6.0 rn "daylighting triangles" at the intersection of Street 'A' with Sarnia Road in accordance with the Z-1 Zoning By-law, Section 4.24. The Owner is also required to dedicate 3.0 m x 3.0 m "daylighting triangles" at the intersection of 'collector' road streets in the plan at Street 'A and Oakcrossing Road and on the west side of Whetherfield Road at the south limit of Oakcrossing Road (ie. where 21.5 m r.0.w.k meet) to satisfy requirements necessary for servicing bus transit routes, as specified by the City Engineer. The Owner is required to construct a bicycle lane along the Sarnia Road frontage to the satisfaction of the City Engineer as part of any road work undertaken on Sarnia Road. The Owner is required to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Street 'C and Whetherfield Drive to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. The Owner shall ensure that 9

Agenda Item # Page # r-lr-- 39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 driveways for lots that abut the roundabout are located in accordance with the EESD Design Specification and Requirements Manual. The Owner shall install street lighting at this intersection to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. PUBLIC LIAISON: On January 12, 2006, letters were sent to 94 surrounding area residents advising of the proposed raft plan of subdivision. Notice of the application was also published in "Living in the City" section of the London Free Press on January 21, 2006 Facility (RI-4(1 l)/r5-1/r6-3/nf) Zone to permit single detached dwellings, townhouses and stacked townhouses and cluster housing at a maximum density of 25 units per hectare and a maximum height of 12 metres and neighbourhood facility uses such as churches, community centres, day care centres and schools. A change to the zoning on Block 66 in drafi approved plan 39T-03501 (immediately west) FROM a Residential R1 Special Provision/Neighbourhood Facility (R1-4(11)/NF1) Zone TO a Residential R1 Special Provision/R5/R6/Neighbourhood Facility (R1-4(11)/R5-1/R6-3/NF) Zone is also under consideration in order to ensure that the final approved zoning on these two blocks (Block 6E - 39T-03501 and Block 31-39T-06501) is consistent. I Responses: None to date Official Plan Policies The Low Density Residential designation, which applies to the majority of these lands, permits low-rise, low density housing forms including detached, semi-detached and duplex dwellings(at a maximum density of 30 units per hectare) as the main permitted uses. The Multi-Family Medium Density designation, which applies to a small portion at the north west corner of this site, permits multiple-unit residential developments having a low rise profile, with a 10

39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 maximum density of 75 units per hectare. Uses may include row houses, cluster houses, lowrise apartment buildings and certain specialized residential facilities such as small scale nursing homes. Uses permitted within the Low Density Residential designation may also be considered in areas designated for medium density residential development. Community facilities such as churches, community centres and schools are permitted in all residential land use designations. Proposal The following map illustrates the changes between the current application and the draft plan approval which was granted in 2000. Major changes include a realignment of the collector road at the northerly limit of the plan along with corresponding adjustments to the local streets, block reconfigurations and the extension of Beaverbrook Ave to the west. The applicant is proposing a block plan of subdivision with 27 low density residential blocks for single detached dwellings (with the potential for approximately 300 single detached lots) and one multi-family medium density residential blocks, ( max. 52 units based on density of 35 units per hectare). The applicant is also proposing a centrally located school block. This block may develop for low density residential uses if it is not required by the school board. The applicant's proposal to develop various forms of low and medium density residential uses and a school complies with the land use designations which apply to this parcel. Subdivision Design As noted above, the original draft approval for these lands (39T-98513 & 39T-99512) extended from the westerly limit of this draft plan (39T-06501) to Wonderland Road and from the CN rail line to Sarnia Rd/C.P. Rail line. The focal point of this original subdivision is the Beaverbrook Woods and a linear park adjacent to the woods. 11

Agenda Item # Page # r--- 39T-0650112-7078102-6710 Location of Parkland and Stormwater Management Facility The streets have been layed out in this subdivision in a north-south pattern based on the existing topography. There is a central collector road which extends from the Oakcrossing Subdivision (south of Beaverbrook Avenue) northerly through this draft plan. The road continues through adjacent lands to the east (owned by Sifton properties) and reconnects with Beaverbrook Avenue The original draft plan also provided for associated shopping area commercial uses at the intersection of Wonderland Rd N. and Beaverbrook Ave. There is also a church located at the south west corner of Beaverbrook Rd and Wonderland Rd N. The current drafl plan is an extension of the residential subdivision to the east and it will allow for appropriate integration and transition of land uses. The local street pattern provides exposure to the central school site. One of the goals of the City's' goals is to discourage rear lotting and noise attenuation walls along arterial roads. The City also encourages street orientation of buildings in multi-family developments to eliminate continuous privacy fencing adjacent to the street. These items will be addressed through conditions of drafl approval. The proposal provides for a balance of low density and medium density forms of housing. As this is a block plan development, the issue of lot sizes will be reviewed prior to registration to ensure that there are a mix of sizes in keeping with the Small Lot Subdivision Design Guidelines. Issues dealing with the aesthetics of development on multi-family residential block will be examined in greater detail at the site plan approval stage. Parks and Open Space Required parkland has been dedicated in previous phases of the original draft approved plan (39T-99512). These parks are Block 78 in Plan 33M445 and Block 168 in Plan 33M532. 12

Agenda Item # Page # r-lm 39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 Railway Concerns Both Canadian National Railway and the Canadian Pacific Railways have identified noise and vibration concerns with respect to the location of this development. As per our previous comments, given the distance between the closest point of the subdivision limit and the CN rail right of way (approximately 265 metres), the existing noise attenuation fence and the proposed residential development between the rail line and the subject lands, staff contend that a noise study is not necessary. The applicant has prepared a noise and vibration report to address the issue of noise as it relates to Canadian Pacific Rail operations to the north in response to the condition of the current draft approved plan 39T-99512. Due to the time that has passed an addendum to this report is appropriate to ensure that the noise and vibration issues are adequately addressed. In addition, appropriate noise warning clauses are required to be registered on title to these lands. This will be addressed through a condition of draft approval. The zoning proposed for the blocks abutting the CP rail line will include a special provision to address an appropriate setback from the ROW as per their request. Transportation Streets EESD-Transportation staff have advised that there is insufficient distance to construct a left turning lane along Sarnia Road given the proximity of the bridge which crosses the CPR tracks. As a result the owner will required to construct a raised median, including any necessary related pavement widening on Sarnia Road to restrict turning movements at Street 'A to rights in/out only to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Consideration will be given to allow for full access to Street A once improvements to the bridge are carried out. The subdivision will be accessed through the extension of Beaverbrook Avenue, the extension of Oakcrossing Road, the extension of Whetherfield Avenue and a new collector road which connects Sarnia Road to Oakcrossing Road. There are also four local streets. This development is the final piece which connects draft approved plans 39T-03501 (owned by Sifton Properties) and the remainder of the Beaverbrook Subdivision to the east (owned, by Drewlo Holdings). All lots and blocks will be accessed from the internal road system. To ensure that Schedule C - Transportation Corridors of the Official Plan is consistent with the proposed draft plan of subdivision, it is recommended that Oakcrossing Gate (Street A), the extension of Beaverbrook Avenue (Street C) and Oakcrossing Road from Mapleridge Street to Oakcrossing Gate be identified as secondary collector roads. Roundabout One of the differences between the proposed plan and the plan which was draft approved in 2000 (39T-99512) is the extension of Beaverbrook Avenue which will complete the connection to Sarnia Road. The Owner will be required to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Street 'C' (Beaverbrook Road) and Whetherfield Drive to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. The Owner shall ensure that driveways for lots that abut the roundabout are appropriately located in accordance with the E.E.S.D. Design Specification and Requirements Manual. Servicing Sanitarv Services The Owner will be required to connect the proposed sanitary sewers to serve this plan to the existing 300 mm (12) sanitary sewer at Beaverbrook Avenue and Oakcrossing Road. This outlets to the 450 mrn (18) Oakridge trunk sanitary sewer system on Laurel Crescent to Kingsway Avenue and to the Mudd Creek sanitary sewer system. Registration of this plan and subsequent development is subject to the availability of sewage treatment capacity at the 13

39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 Greenway Pollution Control Plant, Storm Water Manasement The subject lands are located within the Mud Creek Subwatershed and the storm outlet for these lands is the Mud Creek via the existing 1250 mm (54) storm sewer on Beaverbrook Avenue at Oakcrossing Road which outlets to the existing "Capulet Lane'! regional Stormwater Management (SWM) Facility located within registered plan 33M-435. Water Services The Owner will be required to connect the proposed watermains to serve this plan to the municipal water main on Sarnia Road. The Owner will be required to "loop" of the water main system for this subdivision to Sarnia Road and the subdivision to the west. Prior to applying for the 81st building permit, the Owner must have it's professional engineer deliver confirmation that the watermain system has been looped. Proposed Zoning The subject lands are currently zoned for various forms of low and medium density forms of housing and for neighhbourhood facility uses. The proposed zoning at the northerly limit of the plan reflects the changes to the street and block configuration as a result of the revised draft plan. The applicant and owner of the draft approved plan to the east have requested that the zoning of the school block be changed to allow for the flexibility of single low and medium density forms of housing should this block not develop for a school. Staff do not support requests to allow for different forms of housing (Le. freehold and cluster) as it creates uncertainty as to how this block will develop (ie street pattern has not been considered). Should the applicant wish in the future to develop this block for freehold residential lots it is appropriate to consider a rezoning application with an associated subdivision application to ensure that the street design, pedestrian connections, and lot configurations have undergone full public review, are appropriate and in keeping with the regulations of the requested zone. Based on this, staff do not recommend the requested R1-4(11) zone and are prepared to recommend a compound medium density (cluster) residential zone in combination with the existing neighbourhood facility zone. It is recommended that a holding provision (h- J be created and applied to the Block 29 to require the applicant to submit a noise and vibration study to ensure that development proposed for this block provides for appropriate noise and vibration mitigation measures. Based on our review of the draft plan of subdivision, Section 4.21 of the Z-1 Zoning By-law must also be amended to identify Oakcrossing Gate. (Street A) from Sarnia Road to Oakcrossing 'Road; the extension of Beaverbrook Avenue (Street C); and Oakcrossing Road from Beaverbrook Avenue to Oakcrossing Gate as secondar collector roads. It should also be noted that the zone lines of existing zones in this subdivision have been adjusted slightly to reflect the new street pattern. The recommended residential zones are appropriate and in conformity with the land use designations and Official Plan policies. Redline Revisions The following redline revisions are required for this draft plan: Show a traffic circle at the intersection of Whetherfield St and Beaverbrook Ave identify 3 x 3 m daylighting triangles at Street 'A' and Oakcrossing Road and on the west 14

mm Agenda Item # Page # side of Whetherfield Road at the south limit of Oakcrossing Road identify 6m x 6m daylight triangles at Oakcrossing Gate and Sarnia Rd 39T-06501/2-7078/02-6710 add 0.3 m reserves along the frontage of Sarnia Road, Block 32 (as shown on the plan), west limit of Street 'C' and west limit of Oakcrossing Road. Relocate walkway Block 30 to the west opposite Street A Add a walkway between Blocks 518 and Bocks 6i7 to connect the proposed crescent street to Oakcrossing Road This subdivision with the recommended zoning will provide a variety of residential dwelling types and a centrally located school site to benefit existing and future residents. The proposed drafl plan of subdivision and associated Zoning By-law amendments are appropriate and consistent with the Official Plan and the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement.
