S �a .� 0 �Y F� zo SUBJE PR TY CO `C S y �N C� 4 'S `� r Ire 5 - 1 REPORT: The subject lands are located at 8 & 12 Louisa Street and are zoned Medium Intensity Mixed Use Corridor Zone (MU-2) and are located in a Mixed Use Corridor designation under the Official Plan. The lands have recently received Site Plan Approval in Principle for a multiple residential development. The development complies with zoning regulations. Before the Site Plan receives final approval and a building permit may be issued, Holding Provision 6H must be removed from the lands. Holding Provision 6H specifies that it shall not be removed until such time as the lands have been consolidated with lands fronting King Street West and a site plan has been approved, including appropriate buffering measures. Staff confirm that the lands have been consolidated together with lands addressed as 672 —690 King Street West as well as with 18 Louisa Street (see Appendix "C"). Buffering measures have been included in the Site Plan. As such, Planning staff recommend that Holding Provision 6H be removed from the lands as shown on Map No.1 (Appendix "A"). ALIGNMENT WITH CITY OF KITCHENER STRATEGIC PLAN: The Zone Change aligns with the Kitchener Strategic Plan as it ensures the implementation of the community priority Development and will allow development that is consistent with Provincial, Regional and City planning policy. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications associated with this recommendation. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: INFORM - Notice of the intention to pass an amending by-law to remove Holding Provision 62H will be advertised in The Record on February 13, 2015. (see Appendix "B"). Under the Planning Act, no statutory public meeting or neighbourhood circulation are required for zone change amendments to remove a holding provision. This report has been posted to the City's website with the agenda in advance of the council / committee meeting. CONCLUSION: Planning staff are of the opinion that the requested Zone Change to remove Holding Provision 6H from the lands specified on the attached Map No.1 of Appendix"A" is appropriate at this time since the requirements to remove the holding provision have been met. Planning Staff recommend approval of the application as outlined in the Recommendation section of this report.
