Staff Report PD039-18 Page: 1 TO: FROM: Councillor A. Buie, Chair and Members of M. Holmes, Manager of Planning Services J. Rand, Senior Planner SUBJECT: Rezoning Application D14-14/18 (Harry and Kelly Bentley) RECOMMENDATION 1. That the property described as Part 1 on Registered Plan 35R-11601 and Part 1 on Registered Plan 35R-12681, Bracebridge Ward of the Town of Bracebridge be rezoned from the present zone of Residential Type 4 Special - 8 (R4-8) to Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57) in part and Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24) in part, as attached in Appendix A to Staff Report PD039-18. ORIGIN 2. An application has been received from Harry and Kelly Bentley for a zoning amendment of the subject lands located at 96 River Road and legally described as Part 1 on Registered Plan 35R- 11601 and Part 1 on Registered Plan 35R-12681, Bracebridge Ward of the Town of Bracebridge. 3. Provisional consent approval was granted on September 4, 2018 for severance application D10-17/18 for the subject lands, which proposed to create one severed and one retained lot. The zoning amendment application is required as a condition of the provisional consent approval in order to implement a rear yard setback from the Canadian National Railway as well as facilitate the proposed uses on the lands. 4. The applicant is proposing to construct a detached dwelling on the retained lands and a triplex dwelling on the severed lands. 5. A map showing the location of the subject property is attached as Appendix B. 6. An aerial photograph of the subject property is attached as Appendix C. 7. The subject lands have frontage on River Road and the Muskoka River is located directly across the road from the subject lands. The subject lands are currently vacant. The lands contain a small flat grassy area adjacent to River Road and slope gently up as you move west on the lots. Outside of the grassy area at the roadway, the lands are well treed with a mixture of vegetation. 8. Surrounding land uses are primarily detached dwelling development with an apartment building located directly north of the subject lands. The CN railway abuts the property to the north. 9. The total property prior to the consent application was 0.9 hectares (2.2 acres) with 61.4 metres (201 feet) of frontage on River Road. The retained lands are 0.5 hectares (1.2 acres) in area with 36.4 metres (119 feet) of frontage on River Road. The severed lands are 0.4 hectares (1.0 acres) with 25.0 metres (82 feet) of frontage on River Road. 10. A map showing the zoning and surrounding zoning of the subject lands can be found in Appendix D. 6

Staff Report PD039-18 Page: 2 ANALYSIS 11. The following table provides a summary of the Official Plan designation and zoning of the property and the action requested or required to be taken: Policy/Regulation Current Status Requested/Required Zoning By-law 2016-088 Residential Type 4 Special 8 (R4-8) Rezone the lands to Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57) in part and to Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24) in part, with both zones requiring a 91.4 metre (300 foot) setback to the rear yard. Town Official Plan Designated Urban Centre Residential Area Conforms to general intent no action required. Muskoka Official Plan Designated Rural Conforms to general intent no action required. 12. The subject property is currently zoned Residential Type 4 Special 8 (R4-8) according to Comprehensive Zoning By-law 2016-088. The Residential Type 4 Special 8 (R4-8) zone permits Semi-Detached Dwelling, Duplex Dwelling, Row Housing, Triplex Dwelling, Fourplex Dwelling, Apartment Dwelling, Group Housing and Home Occupation. The Residential Type 4 Special 8 (R4-8) zone contains a special provision requiring a 30.0 metre (98.4 foot) rear yard setback. All other provisions of the Residential Type 4 (R4) zone apply to the current Residential Type 4 Special 8 (R4-8). 13. The proposed zoning by-law would amend Comprehensive Zoning By-law 2016-088 by rezoning the subject lands from Residential Type 4 Special - 8 (R4-8) to Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57) in part and Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24) in part. 14. The application would change the zoning of the severed to Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24), which would permit all those uses in the Residential Type 3 (R3) zone. The Residential Type 3 (R3) zone permits a Detached Dwelling, Semi-Detached Dwelling, Duple Dwelling, Row Dwelling, Triplex Dwelling, Home Occupation, Bed and Breakfast and Group Home A. The Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24) zone would require a 98.4 metre (300 foot) setback to the rear yard for the purposes of providing a buffer to the Canadian National Railway right-of-way. All other provisions of the Residential Type 3 (R3) zone apply to the current Residential Type 3 Special 24 (R3-24). This zoning would facilitate the proposed triplex dwelling on the severed lands. 15. The application would change the zoning of the retained lands to Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57), which would permit all those uses in the Residential Type 1 (R1) zone. The Residential Type 1 (R1) zone permits a Detached Dwelling, Home Occupation, Bed and Breakfast, Group Home A, Second Dwelling Unit and Backyard Hens. The Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57) zone would require a 98.4 metre (300 foot) setback to the rear yard for the purposes of providing a buffer to the Canadian National Railway right-of-way. All other provisions of the Residential Type 1 (R1) zone apply to the current Residential Type 1 Special 57 (R1-57). This zoning would facilitate the proposed detached dwelling on the severed lands. 7

Staff Report PD039-18 Page: 3 16. The subject lands also contain Floodway Phase 1 (F1) and Flood Fringe Phase 1 (F2) overlays zones. No structural development is proposed in the Floodway Phase (F1), however development is permitted in the Flood Fringe Phase 1 (F2) subject to floodproofing (i.e. raising the building and ensuring openings are above a certain elevation). The rezoning application would not change the Floodway Phase 1 (F1) and Flood Fringe Phase 1 (F2) overlay zones on the subject lands. 17. Additionally, another condition of the consent application requires the applicant to provide a floodplain elevation survey to determine the regulatory flood elevation for both the severed and retained lands in order to demonstrate that appropriate flood proofing can be implemented. It should be noted that the elevation survey has not yet been submitted, however based on the Town s floodplain mapping, staff are satisfied that each lot would contain a building envelope outside of the floodway 18. In reviewing the Town of Bracebridge s Official Plan Appendix A Environmental Features and Constraints Mapping as well as the District of Muskoka Constraint Web Mapping, no sensitive environmental features have been identified on the subject lands. 19. A drainage course has been identified on the subject lands near the Canadian National Railway right-of-way. There is no required setback in the Comprehensive Zoning By-law for a drainage course, however staff would note that due to the proposed 98.4 metre (300 foot) rear yard setback development will be well separate from the drainage course. 20. The subject lands are located within the Urban Centre Residential Area Designation in the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan. 21. Under the Land Use Concept in Section A3.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following policy would be relevant to the application: 21.1.

Staff Report PD040-18 Page: 12 42.7. In Section C2.1.9 iv) for mixed development types an average density between the different types of development shall be taken depending on the composition of the development 43. In the preferred draft of the Plan of Subdivision the net density, which does not include the proposed road right-of-way or the blocks not to be developed, is as follows: 43.1. For the lots proposed to be developed for detached dwellings, the net density is 14.1 units per hectare, which meets the low density requirement for detached dwellings; and 43.2. For the lots proposed to be developed for row dwellings, the net density is 27.6 units per hectare, which meets the medium density requirement for row dwellings. 44. In the alternative draft of the Plan of Subdivision the net density, which does not include the proposed road right-of-way or the blocks not to be developed, is 15.0 units per hectare, which meets the low density requirement for detached dwellings. 45. Under the Residential Designation policies in Section C3.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following policies would be relevant to the application: 45.1. In Section C3.1.1, the Residential designation applies to lands in the Urban Centre that are serviced and generally support residential development at a variety of densities; and 45.2.

In Section I15.1.3, all stormwater management facilities in a Plan of Subdivision shall be placed in an appropriate Open Space or Environmental Protection Zone in the Implementing Zoning By-law to reflect the potential for these lands to be flooded and to ensure that their intended use is recognized. Agreements with the Town may be required as a condition of approval, to provide for their continued maintenance; 35

Staff Report PD040-18 Page: 13 46.6. In Section I5.1.4, alterations to natural streams, watercourses and wetland areas shall be avoided. Stormwater management facilities are encouraged to be naturalized using native species and are encouraged to use on-site stormwater management techniques such as swales and soak away pits to maximize infiltration and reduce off-site runoff; and 46.7. In Section I5.1.5, storm water management facilities shall protect natural environmental features to the greatest extent possible, shall blend with the surrounding environment and shall be developed on the basis of best management practices. 47. Under the Implementation policies in Section J of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following policies would be relevant to the application: 47.1. In Section J10.1, the Town shall establish provisions for the dedication and use of lands for park or other public recreational purposes, where an increase in demand for land or services occurs, pursuant to the Planning Act; 47.2. In Section J10.2, in considering development or redevelopment of land, or lot creation by registered Plan of Subdivision, Condominium or Consent application, the Town may require the applicant to dedicate up to 5% of the gross area to the provision of public open space in residential developments and up to 2% for commercial or industrial developments. This dedication may take the form of viable parkland or as cash payment under the provisions of the Planning Act; 47.3. In Section J10.5, in order to enhance the potential for a network of linked multi-use recreational trails throughout the Town, all development applications will be reviewed and evaluated on the extent to which the creation, expansion and preservation of such a network can be accomplished as part of that development application; 47.4. In Section J10.6, where deemed appropriate by the Town, the parkland dedication may be used to acquire or develop land for a linked recreational trail system; 47.5. In Section J19.8, Subdivision design will contribute to the health, wellbeing and social cohesiveness of the community. To promote this, the following principles are used to guide subdivision layout, both within subdivisions and between subdivisions: 47.5.1. Street patterns will be designed to distribute traffic throughout the site and provide numerous linkages both within the subdivision and with abutting development; 47.5.2. Alternative development standards may be considered to encourage a variety of street types and neighbourhood character; 47.5.3. Subdivisions will be designed to facilitate efficient future transit service; 47.5.4. A mix of housing types that are affordable and accessible to a full range of income and age groups will be encouraged; 47.5.5.

Home occupations will generally be allowed in residential areas, subject to standards established in the zoning by-law. 48. The District of Muskoka Official Plan designates the subject lands within the Urban Centre designation. In the District of Muskoka Official Plan it is a principle that a range of housing options will be available and attainable for all demographic groups and income levels. The District Official Plan also contains a number of policies on efficient use of land and services, and providing a range of housing types and tenures. 49. The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) encourages strong, healthy communities through efficient land use and development patterns which support sustainability by promoting strong, liveable, healthy and resilient communities, protecting the environment and public health and safety, and facilitating economic growth. Accordingly: 49.1. Section 1.1.1 states that healthy, liveable and safe communities are sustained by: promoting efficient development and land use patterns which sustain the financial wellbeing of the Province and municipalities over the long term; accommodating an appropriate range and mix of residential, employment, institutional, recreation, park and open space, and other uses to meet long-term needs; and, promoting cost-effective development patterns and standards to minimize land consumption and servicing costs; 49.2. Section 1.1.3 directs that settlement areas shall be the focus of growth and development; 49.3. Section 1.1.3.4 states that appropriate development standards should be promoted which facilitate intensification, redevelopment and compact form; 49.4. Section 1.4.3 directs municipalities to provide for an appropriate range and mix of housing types and densities to meet projected requirements of current and future residents by: directing the development of new housing towards locations where appropriate levels of infrastructure and public service facilities are or will be available to support current and projected needs; and by promoting densities for new housing which efficiently use land, resources, infrastructure and public service facilities; and 37

Staff Report PD040-18 Page: 15 49.5. Section 1.6.6.2 confirms that municipal sewage services and municipal water services are the preferred form of servicing for settlement areas and intensification and redevelopment within settlement areas on existing municipal sewage services and municipal water services should be promoted, wherever feasible. 50. It is staff s opinion that the zoning amendment conforms to the Official Plan of the Town of Bracebridge, conforms to the Official Plan of the District of Muskoka, is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, is appropriate and represents good planning. 51. Initial comments from other Town Departments and outside agencies based on current information are as follows: Department/Agency 51.1. Chief Building Official 51.2. Public Works Department Comment No concerns with the application. No concerns with the application. 51.3. Fire Chief No concerns with the application. 51.4. Manager of Economic Development 51.5. District of Muskoka No concerns with the application. District staff would recommend deferral of the above noted application as it appears to be premature due to a number of outstanding requirements, including the submission of a draft plan of subdivision application and required supporting documentation to the District of Muskoka for consideration. Should Council wish to consider the application, District staff would recommend that the by-law is amended to include a holding (H) symbol. Removal of the (H) should only be considered when the following conditions have been fulfilled: i) That the lands be subject to an agreement with the District Municipality of Muskoka to address the provision of municipal services, hydraulic modelling, capacity allocation, improvements to the District Road, and the disposal of solid waste, among other matters; ii) iii) iv) The submission of an update traffic Impact Study to the satisfaction of the District Municipality of Muskoka; Peer review of the Traffic Impact Study to the satisfaction of the District Municipality of Muskoka; and The submission of a Function Servicing Report, to the satisfaction of the District Municipality of Muskoka. 38

Staff Report PD040-18 Page: 16 Department/Agency 51.6. Ministry of Transportation 51.7. Lakeland Power Comment No concerns with the application. No concerns with the application. 51.8. Union Gas Union Gas has an underground plan in the area of this project, please obtain locates and dig with caution. 51.9. Other Agencies No comments have been received from Canada Post, CN Rail, Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, Infrastructure Ontario, Hydro One, Veridian Connections, Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board, Trillium Lakelands District School Board, Union Gas, Bell Canada, TransCanada Pipeline Ltd. or MPAC. 52. Staff are recommending the approval of the zoning amendment as recommended in Appendix A for the following reasons: 52.1. Staff has reviewed the proposal in the context of the Provincial Policy Statement, the District of Muskoka Official and the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan. The proposal addresses the broader goals of intensification within the serviced Urban Centre, as well as the efficient use of municipal services; 52.2. The proposal would streamline potential future changes to the Plan of Subdivision by building in flexibility with respect to the uses proposed in later phases of the development; 52.3. It is staff s opinion that the criteria for small lot detached dwelling residential as set out in the Town s Official Plan is satisfied by the proposal; 52.4. The approval of the zoning facilitates the construction of additional single detached dwelling and row dwelling units and supports the development of a range of housing types and tenue as set out in the Town s Official Plan. LINKAGE TO COMMUNITY BASED STRATEGIC PLAN 53. The zoning amendment is well aligned with the strategic theme(s): Recognize the importance of the Town s decisions in shaping the future of the community. Ensure that the Town s planning practices, policies and processes encourage responsible growth and development that aligns with the community s identity and heritage. Focus on specific areas highlighted as priorities, including, develop options to support the diversification and affordability of housing options to meet the needs of the entire community. 39

Staff Report PD040-18 Page: 17 Continually strive to improve efficiency and accountability in governance. Encourage civic engagement as a means to foster a strong and transparent relationship between the Town and community. Commit to partnering and working with outside organizations to leverage efforts with the community. 54. The Zoning Amendment will: 54.1. Support Creative and Considerate Planning through assisting with the creation of a range of housing type and tenure. 54.2. Support Governance and Civic Engagement by allowing Council to take public comments into consideration as part of making an informed decision on the application. LINKAGE TO COUNCIL PRIORITIES 55. The zoning amendment supports a Vibrant, Prosperous and Economically Sustainable Community, which has been identified by Council as a 2014-2018 priority area. The zoning amendment helps to support this priority by providing a diversified range of housing. ALTERNATIVE 56. The following alternatives are available for Committee s consideration: Alternative #1 The Committee could decide that the zoning amendment application is not appropriate. This alternative is not recommended as the proposal conforms to the policies of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan. Alternative #2 The Committee could refer the zoning amendment application back to staff for further consultation with the District of Muskoka. This alternative is not recommended as the purpose of the zoning is to set out the uses of the land and the reports recommended by the District are more appropriately required during the Plan of Subdivision process. Staff believe that the concerns of the District will be addressed satisfactorily at the subdivision stage. EXISTING POLICY 57. Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, 2013. 58. Town of Bracebridge Comprehensive Zoning By-law 2016-088. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 59. The zoning amendment has no direct financial impact on the Town; however, it will facilitate building permit and development charge revenue in the future. 40

A map of all the total land holdings is attached as Appendix H. 53

Staff Report PD041-18 Page: 3 13. The subject lands are well treed throughout with the exception of access roads for the camp and building sites. There are also a number of trails that run through the subject lands and join up with other lands owned by the applicant. 14. The properties contain a small waterbody on the southwest portion of the subject lands and a small wetland area on the northwest portion of the subject lands. The wetland drains into Cougar Lake by a small creek. None of the existing or proposed development is located in close proximity to the small waterbody or small wetland. 15. Surrounding uses around Stoneleigh Lake appear to be vacant lots. Surrounding uses along Stoneleigh Road and Muskoka Road 117 further to the north are a mix of rural residential uses on a range of lot sizes. ANALYSIS 16. The following table provides a summary of the Official Plan designation, the zoning of the site and the action requested or required to be taken: Policy/Regulation Current Status Requested/Required Zoning By-law 2016-088 Zoned Commercial Tourist Two Special 2 (CT2-2) in part, Rural (RU) in part, and Shoreline Residential Type 1 (SR1) in part No action required as use is permitted in CT2-2 zone and considered legal nonconforming in RU and SR1 zone. Town Official Plan Muskoka Official Plan Designated Waterfront Area Shoreline in part and Rural Area Countryside in part Designated Waterfront in part and Rural in part No action required No action required 17. The Commercial Tourist Two Special 2 (CT2-2) zone permits all those uses in a Commercial Tourist Two (CT2) zone including Accessory Dwelling Unit, Accessory Apartment Dwelling Unit, Assembly Hall, Camping Establishment, Convenience Store, Outside Display and Sale, Place of Entertainment, Restaurant and Retail Store. The special provision permits a Children s Camp as an additional permitted use. 18. The following is a table of the zone standards for the Commercial Tourist Two Special 2 (CT2-2) zone and the proposed standards for the development with an indication if the site plan as submitted complies with the zone standards: Zone Standard CT2-2 Requirement Proposed Proposal Complies with CT2-2 Standard Minimum Lot Area 4 ha 24.3 ha Yes Minimum Lot Frontage 6 m 700 m Yes 54

Staff Report PD041-18 Page: 4 Zone Standard CT2-2 Requirement Proposed Proposal Complies with CT2-2 Standard Minimum Front Yard Setback (from Stoneleigh) Minimum Interior Side Yard Setback Minimum Rear Yard Setback (Building) Minimum Setback from Centreline of Stoneleigh Road Maximum Lot Coverage Minimum Landscaped Area 20 m varies Yes for all proposed and enlarged buildings or structures. Some existing buildings and structures do not meet the required 20 m setback however they would be considered legal noncomplying as they predate the Comprehensive Zoning By-law 15 m Over 200 m Yes 15 m Minimum 30 m Yes 22 m Over 60 m Yes 35% +/- 5% Yes 10% +/- 90% Yes Maximum Height 9 m Building heights will be confirmed at building permit stage. Parking Location All yards Side Yards and Rear Yard Yes Yes Number of Parking Spaces 46 60+ Yes 19. Based on the Town s GIS mapping it appears that the lands subject to the children s camp use may be comprised of multiple lots owned by the same property owner. The site plan, as attached in Appendix B, does not indicate lot line boundaries, and staff are proposing a condition that confirmation is required that the subject lands have been merged into one lot. The comparison table of zoning provision with the proposal was prepared based on the assumption that the lots will merge in title. 55

Staff Report PD041-18 Page: 5 20. Staff would note that the use of the Children s Camp, is primarily located within the Tourist Commercial Two Special 2 (CT2-2) zone, however portions of the use are located within lands zoned Rural (RU) and Shoreline Residential Type 1 (SR1). Given the Children s Camp use on these lands legally existing prior to Comprehensive Zoning By-law, the use is considered a nonconforming use. Under Section 4.7 of Comprehensive Zoning By-law 2016-088, new buildings and structures can be constructed for legal non-conforming uses. Staff have included the subject lands as property to be reviewed during the Housekeeping By-law to the Comprehensive Zoning By-law, which is proposed as a project under the Planning and Development Department in the Draft 2019 Municipal Budget and Business Plan. 21. The Original Shore Road Allowance (OSRA) surrounding Stoneleigh Lake is still in public ownership. Some of the existing structures are located on the OSRA and therefore staff are recommending a condition in the Appendix A that the applicant enter into temporary License of Occupation and submit an application to purchase the OSRA from the Town. 22. In reviewing the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan Appendix A Environmental Features and Constraints Mapping and the District of Muskoka Constraint Web Mapping, there is a wetland and steep slopes identified on these properties. 23. The wetlands on the subject lands have been zoned Environmental Protection Wetland One (EPW1), as highlighted in green on the zoning of the subject lands map attached as Appendix G. All development is proposed more than 30 metres from the EPW1 zone as required. 24. The steep slopes on the property are identified as being between 20% to 40%. The site plan demonstrates that no buildings are proposed to be located on the steep slopes. 25. The subject lands are located within the Rural Area Countryside and Waterfront Area Shoreline Designations in the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan. 26. Under the Land Use Concept in Section A3.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following policies would be relevant to the application: 26.1. In Section A3.3, the Rural Area designation includes lands outside of the Urban Centre, Waterfront Area and Muskoka Falls Community designations. The Rural Area designation contains expansive undeveloped areas which provide opportunities for space extensive resource, recreational uses, small scale commercial and industrial uses and low density residential development. Subject to the environmental policies of this plan, space extensive industrial or commercial uses may be located in the Rural Area designation provided the use is resource based and cannot be accommodated in the Urban Centre and does not require urban services. Many significant natural, environmentally sensitive and wildlife habitat areas exist within this designation. Public lands in the Rural Area designation are generally recognized by the Open Space designation; and 26.2. In Section A3.4, the Waterfront Area designation includes lands that are physically and functionally related to significant lakes and rivers. The water resources and shoreline areas contained in the Waterfront Area designation provide major leisure and recreational opportunities, which benefit the Town. The Waterfront Area designation identifies and describes the permitted low density residential, tourist commercial, marina and open space uses. These uses are located in this designation due to the recreational and aesthetic opportunities presented by a significant water resource. These uses will continue to be accommodated in this designation. Many significant natural, environmentally sensitive and wildlife habitat areas exist within this designation. 56

Staff Report PD041-18 Page: 6 27. Under the Vision in Section A5.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following policies would be relevant to the application: 27.1. In Section A5.1 vii), increasing the non-residential tax base through business expansion and attraction. 28. Under the Principles in Section A6.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following principles would be relevant to the application: 28.1. In Section A6.2.2, Bracebridge has historically been a community with urban, rural, and waterfront development areas that cater to people who wish to live in a small community or in a rural or waterfront environment. This trend will be supported to satisfy the lifestyle demands of a wide variety of individuals, however to ensure efficient and cost effective use of municipal services there will be an emphasis on directing growth to the Urban Centre; 28.2. In Section A6.3.1, permanent residential and Employment Area growth will generally be directed to the Urban Centre on full municipal services. Limited development in the Waterfront, Rural Areas and Muskoka Falls Community designations will be permitted that maintains the character of those areas of the Town; 28.3. In Section A6.3.5, the Rural Area will continue to support a mix of natural areas, resource production opportunities, low density residential uses, small scale commercial, industrial and community facility or space extensive uses that are compatible with the rural land uses and by their nature are required to be located in the Rural Area; 28.4. In Section A6.3.6, the waterfront is a unique recreational resource and land asset and, as such, low density residential, service and tourist commercial development in the Waterfront Area should enhance and protect those qualities that contribute to its attraction, including among others, environmental qualities; and 28.5. In Section A6.4.1, Bracebridge has a diversified economy that is shaped by strong and growing businesses in the construction, geo-tech/green, education, tourism and culture, retail and niche manufacturing sectors. The retention and expansion of these sectors is a key component to sustaining economic growth in the Town. 29. Under the Goals and Objectives in Section A7.0 of the Town of Bracebridge Official Plan, the following goals and objectives would be relevant to the application: 29.1. In Section A7.2.1, it is the goal of this Plan to direct the majority of development and intensification to the Urban Centre and to place the highest emphasis for growth within the Built-up Area, while providing a variety of housing forms and employment opportunities. As the Muskoka Falls Community is serviced with individual private water and sewage services, and the focus of the Rural Area is on space extensive resource and recreational uses, permanent residential and Employment Area growth will be limited. The Waterfront Area designation will accommodate low density residential, tourist commercial, marina and open space uses; 29.2.
