REPORT TO: Community & Infrastructure Services Committee
DATE OF MEETING: October 30, 2017
SUBMITTED BY: Alain Pinard, Director of Planning, 519-741-2200 ext. 7319
PREPARED BY: Natalie Goss, Senior Planner, 519-741-2200 ext. 7067
WARD(S) INVOLVED: ALL
DATE OF REPORT: October 10, 2017
REPORT NO.: CSD-17-091
SUBJECT: Kitchener Growth Management Plan (KGMP) 2017-2019+
______________________________________________________________________
THAT the Kitchener Growth Management Plan Fall 2017 to Fall 2019+, attached to
report CSD-17-091, be approved.
BACKGROUND:
In January 2009, Council approved the Kitchener Growth Management Strategy
(KGMS). A key action item from the KGMS was to evolve the 40 year old practice of the
Staging of Development into a comprehensive plan to manage growth-related projects,
infrastructure, land use planning and development applications. In May 2009, Council
approved the first Kitchener Growth Management Plan (KGMP). Su
have been approved by Council in 2011, 2013 and, 2015. This report provides a KGMP
for the 2017 to 2019 timeframe.
REPORT:
The KGMP assigns a relative priority to properties in intensification areas and greenfield
growth areas in consideration of timing of related infrastructure and community facilities.
The KGMP is tabled for Council approval biannually in the Fall in order to inform the
sequence of growth related infrastructure in the Capital Budget process for the following
year. The KGMP also informs and aligns with the Development Charges process. The
KGMP is used by City divisions, the Region, the GRCA, School Boards and other
agencies to prioritize their work loads.
KGMP 2015-2017 Achievements
Since the KGMP 2015-2017, several plans of subdivision received approval (either
through Council or the OMB) in several growth areas. In 2015 and 2016 a total of 3,954
dwelling units were draft approved. Additionally, in these years a total of 819 units were
registered. The Deer Ridge growth area was also completed (i.e. the final stage in the
final plan of subdivision was registered).

KGMP 2017-2019
Process
An internal staff team, comprised of Planning, Engineering, Transportation, Building,
Financial Planning, Community Programs and Services and, Information Technology,
conducted a preliminary analysis of parcels and project timing based on the Growth
Management Plan criteria. This draft KGMP was prepared, including the assignment of
relative priorities to land parcels. The draft KGMP was circulated to City departments,
agencies, landowners and their representatives in early August. The KGMP was
discussed at the September meeting of the Waterloo Region Homebuilders Association
Kitchener Liaison Committee. The internal staff team reviewed all comments received in
order to provide responses (which are contained later in this report) and produce the
final KGMP.
Highlights
The KGMP 2017-2019 (Attachment A) includes a relative priority ranking based on
three categories:
Relative PriorityDescription
Priority A (Green)Development applications would complete the community and
no additional major infrastructure is required
Priority B (Orange)Some additional infrastructure is required and/or there is
dependency upon other lands
Priority C (Red)The timing of major infrastructure or the completion of studies is
farther into the future
The outlook for the KGMP 2017-2019 includes the consideration and relative
prioritization of a significant number of parcels of land and growth-related initiatives. The
following is a summary of the recommended prioritization of land parcels:
Priority APriority BPriority C
21+ more than 20 305 + 2 intensification areas
intensification areas
The recommended Priority A and B lands consist of 21 draft approved plans, 4 plans in
circulation and 26 future plans for a total of 51 parcels. One Priority C parcel is draft
approved, one is in circulation and 3 are future plans, all of which require future works
or applications. Although lands indicated as Priority C may be the lowest priority for
development applications, there are often initiatives recommended to be undertaken
and completed within each of these areas in advance of the submission of development
applications during the upcoming 2-year timeframe.
-2019 and
Official Plan and Kitchener Official Plan. This area has been included in the KGMP at
this time to identify it as a growth area that will require comprehensive planning
commencing in 2019 in accordance with Regional and City Official Plan policies.
4 - 2
The approach to growth management is not just about prioritizing the number of plans
include allocation of resources towards conducting studies that are needed before
development can be considered along with completing initiatives that are required to
move lands for draft approval to registration and construction. These initiatives include
proceeding with environmental assessments and detailed design for roads, sanitary
servicing infrastructure and improvements, intersection upgrades, new cycling path
construction, PARTS Plans, and park/trail implementation.
Preliminary Circulation Comments
There were 22 comments received on the preliminary circulation regarding 28
parcels/areas. These comments were either from landowners or consultants on behalf
of landowners. The comments received on the preliminary circulation are contained
within Appendix B to this report. The following is a summary, by Planning Community, of
the comments and staff responses.
Grand River North
Ottawa and Lackner Intensification Area MHBC on behalf of Hallman Construction
Ltd.
Comment MHBC supports the staff recommended Priority A timing. MHBC request
that this priority be applied to all the lands located within the Community Node to reflect
the intensification area outlined in the new Official Plan.
Response
future KGMP will reflect the new intensification areas identified in the 2014 Official Plan.
KGMP Plan ID# 75 and 87 MHBC on behalf of Hallman Construction Ltd.
Comment MHBC supports the staff recommended Priority A timing.
Hidden Valley
KGMP Plan I Peter Benninger on behalf of Pearl Valley Development
Corp.
Comment (via phone) Mr. Benninger questions
Valley area.
Response
review is required prior to development occurring. Staff has commenced with the
Hidden Valley Land Use review which includes a review of required infrastructure. Staff
recommends retaining Priority C timing for Hidden Valley and is recommending
Priority A for the Hidden Valley Land Use Plan.
KGMP Plan ID# 58 Resident
Comment The resident questions

Response Staff have updated the KGMP to acknowledge the multiple property
owners.
Doon South Phase 2
MHBC on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment MHBC supports the staff recommended Priority A timing. MHBC
requests that the commentary for Plan ID#139 be revised as the zone change has been
approved. Additionally, request that the Dodge Drive Trunk Sanitary Sewer be identified
as a project with a timeline of 2018-2019.
Response Staff acknowledge that the zone change for KGMP Plan ID #139 has been
approved, as has the modification to the associated subdivision. As such, KGMP Plan
ID#139 is no longer required as these lands are part of the subdivision associated with
KGMP Plan ID #90.
The timing of the Dodge Drive Trunk Sanitary Sewer will be considered for eligibility in
identified in this KGMP.
MHBC on
behalf of MacLean-Peister Ltd.
Comment MHBC requests that these lands be included in the KGMP and assigned a
Response The KGMP shows parcels of land that are either within intensification areas
or will generally develop through plans of subdivision. As development of this parcel is
not anticipated to occur through a subdivision and as it is not located within an
intensification area, it is not necessary to identify it in the KGMP.
Brigadoon
KGMP Plan ID#130 MHBC on behalf of Hallman Construction Ltd.
Comment MHBC supports the staff recommended Priority B timing. MHBC
advises that Hallman Construction Ltd. and others are pursuing a Credit Refund
Agreement related to the northern portion of the Strasburg Road extension. MHBC
requests that should the agreement be executed prior to approval of the KGMP that the
KGMP be revised to reflect the agreement and timing of construction.
Response Staff agrees with the comments. As the Credit Refund Agreement has not
been fully executed at the time of writing this report, staff will continue to recommend
Priority B.Should the credit refund agreement be fully executed during the time
frame of this KGMP, staff recommend that the notes in the KGMP be updated to
acknowledge this.

Huron
Plan 1382, Part Lot 1 (Lands north-west of Huron Road and Strasburg Road) MHBC
on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment -
they are within an approved community plan, no major infrastructure or services are
required and, they are proposed to be developed for mixed use.
Response These lands are not within a current approved intensification area and are
currently zoned business park. Therefore at this time staff recommends that these lands
not be identified with the KGMP.
Huron South
KGMP Plan ID#29 Vaughn Bender on behalf of Becker Estates Inc.
Comment Mr. Bender requests Priority as the
required sanitary services are scheduled to commence construction in 2017.
Response - The timing of commencement of the South Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer
(SSTSS) is tied to the northern extension of Strasburg Road. As the Credit Refund
Agreement has not been fully executed at the time of writing this report, staff will
continue to recommend Priority B.Should the credit refund agreement be fully
executed during the time frame of this KGMP, staff recommend that the notes in
the KGMP be updated to acknowledge this.
Dundee North
Lands Immediately South of KGMP Plan ID#31 MHBC on behalf of Activa Holdings
Inc.
Comment
and shown within the Huron South Growth Area. These lands currently have a
residential land use designation in the Official Plan and are interrelated with the
subdivision to the north (Plan ID #31)providing a second means of access for that
proposed plan of subdivision.
Response These lands are not part of the Huron Community Plan which is why they
have not been shown within the Huron South Growth Area. To date there has not been
a development application on these lands. Until such time as an application is made
that includes an amendment to the Huron Community Plan to deal with these lands,
staff will continue to recommend no priority as part of the KGMP. Should an
application be made during the timeframe of this KGMP, in concert with the provisions
of the KGMP, the Director of Planning may, in consultation with other departments and
agencies, assign a relative priority.
General Comments MHBC on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment MHBC supports the identification of Dundee North in the KGMP. MHBC
requests that the KGMP be clarified by illustrating property lines and assigning KGMP
Plan ID numbers for each parcel. MHBC also requests confirmation that the municipal
class environmental assessments that have been completed for the South Strasburg
4 - 5
Trunk Sanitary Sewer, the Doon South Pumping Station and Strasburg Road be
sufficient for the purposes of Dundee North. Additionally, MHBC requests that the
extension of Blair Creek Drive and a new east-west collector be identified in the KGMP
for this area. Furthermore, the South Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer has been
finalized and the KGMP should be updated to show the final sewer alignment. Finally,
MHBC requests that the KGMP identify the technical studies that are required for this
area within the timeframes identified in the Regional Official Plan and Kitchener Official
Plan.
Response In accordance with both Regional Official Plan and Kitchener Official Plan
policies, planning for this area of Kitchener is not to commence until 2019. Consistent
with past City practice in the KGMP the comprehensive macro level studies and
subsequent Official Plan amendment need to be dealt with first prior to identifying
individual properties that have the potential to be individual subdivisions. Once this work
has been completed future KGMPs will assign individual ID numbers, provide details on
infrastructure, timing and, assign relative priorities.
The require macro level studies as part of a future secondary plan for this area will be
detailed out through a future terms of reference and reflected in the 2019 Development
Charges study and 2019-2021 KGMP. Regarding future transportation requirements,
staff notes a potential east-west transportation corridor has been shown conceptually on
the overall KGMP map.
The approved alignment of the South Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer has been
reflected in the KGMP.
Rosenberg

on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment This property is within the Rosenberg Secondary Plan and forms part of the
Huron Village Subdivision which has been registered. MHBC requests that these lands
Response

Priority A will be considered in future KGMPs provided that servicing is available.
KGMP Plan ID#126 MHBC on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment - MHBC requests that the notes on this Plan ID be updated to include
reference to the requirement for the Middle Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer (MSTSS).
the Fischer Hallman Road corridor and lands to the west being dependent upon the
MSTSS extension through these lands.
Response Staff have verified that the comments related to Plan ID #126 reference the
requirement for the MSTSS. Given the status of the development application and timing
4 - 6
of the required MSTSS, staff continues to recommend a Priority Bfor these lands.
As such, these lands along with other lands in this growth area that are dependent upon
the MSTSS are eligible to apply for a Credit Refund Agreement. This approach allows
for these costly infrastructure items to be recovered through a greater stream of
revenue and provides the opportunity for the community to be developed
comprehensively.
KGMP Plan ID#122 MHBC on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc.
Comment MHBC requests that the timing of the MSTSS be coordinated with the
upgrades to Fischer Hallman Road.
Response - To comply with Provincial Ministry requirements, as part of the Fischer
Hallman Road EA, a portion of the MSTSS within the Fischer Hallman Road right-of-
way will be constructed to align with the timing of construction of Fischer Hallman Road.
This will not include the construction of any additional portions of the MSTSS at this
time. The timing of the infrastructure is related to balancing the financial status of the
DC Reserve Fund. As Plan ID # 126, 121, 120, 132, 133, 134, 135 and 136 are all
recommended Priority B, they all have the ability to apply for a Credit Refund
Agreement for the MSTSS.
KGMP Plan ID#121 Vaughan Bender on behalf of Big Spring Farms Ltd.
Comment Mr. Bender
requests that the timing of the MSTSS be coordinated with the upgrades to Fischer
Hallman Road.
Response See response to KGMP Plan ID#122.
KGMP Plan ID#120 Ian Cook on behalf of South Estates Ltd.
Comment Mr. Cook supports the staff
requests that the timing of the MSTSS be coordinated with the upgrades to Fischer
Hallman Road.
Response See response to KGMP Plan ID#122.
KGMP Plan ID#132 MHBC on behalf of Stamm Investments Ltd.
Comment -
subdivision and zone change applications have been submitted and these applications
have been circulated and are awaiting the preparation of a staff report. Additionally,
MHBC requests that the timing of the MSTSS be coordinated with the upgrades to
Fischer Hallman Road.
Response See response to KGMP Plan ID#122. Additionally, given the status of the
development application and timing of the required MSTSS, staff continues to
recommend a Priority B for these lands. As such, these lands along with other lands
in this growth area that are dependent upon the MSTSS are eligible to apply for a Credit
Refund Agreement. This approach allows for these costly infrastructure items to be
4 - 7
recovered through a greater stream of revenue and provides the opportunity for the
community to be developed comprehensively.
Mr. Lowes on behalf of Mattamy Homes
Comment ranking. Mr. Lowes
is pleased to see the additional Mattamy Homes lands that are now in the urban area
are being reflected in the KGMP. Mr. Lowes requested clarification as to why they are
not shown as part of the Rosenberg Growth Sub-Area.
Response The new lands that were added to the urban area south of Plan ID #133
are to be considered through a combined development application that includes an
amendment to the Rosenberg Secondary Plan and supporting studies, plan of
subdivision and zoning by-law amendment. These additional lands are recommended
as a Priority B. Once a decision is made regarding the Rosenberg Secondary Plan
amendment, the KGMP will be updated accordingly.
Laurentian West Phases 1-3a
KGMP Plan ID#13 Resident
Comment The resident of this Plan ID questioned why all property owners were not
reflected in the KGMP, why only single detached dwellings are permitted and what is
meant by provincial constraints.
Response The owner/subdivider information is generated from an automated system
and is usually reflective of the applicant of the subdivision. Additionally, the purpose of
the KGMP is to coordinate the timing of growth and infrastructure. The KGMP does not
determine how or what unit type may be developed on any given parcel. It would appear
that the proposed subdivision on this parcel is proposing only single detached dwellings
at this time. Furthermore, a provincial constraint is a natural feature of
provincial/regional significance that may be located on a parcel. The notes on this
parcel indicate that there is one or more of these features on this parcel which are then
subtracted from the potential developable portion of the property.
Laurentian West Phase 3b
2219 Ottawa Street and 808 Trussler Road Polocorp on behalf of Stephen Moxey and
Steven Taylor
Comment Polocorp requests that these lands be included in the KGMP. Development
applications are intended to be submitted to subdivide the properties and in discussions
with staff they have confirmed that servicing is available for the future development of
the sites.
Response
(i.e. in this case, properties with the potential to develop, in part through plan of
subdivision). In consideration of the KGMP relative proprieties and based on the
availability of servicing for these lands, staff are recommending aPriority B.

Dear Ms. Goss:
RE: Kitchener Growth Management Plan (KGMP) Fall 2017
2019+
OUR FILE: 8784AF
I am writing on behalf of our client, Activa Holdings Inc., with respect to their lands in Southwest
Kitchener and identified within the Huron South Growth Area, located immediately south of Property 31.
For your easy reference, I have attached a plan identifying our clients lands.
Our clients lands are designated Low-Rise Residential in the new City of Kitchener Official Plan, and the
extent of this designation is coincident with the former Settlement Area boundary.
We kindly request that the lands identified on the attached plan be included as a Priority B (similar to
Property 31). Property 31 is currently being processed for draft plan approval as plan of subdivision 30T-
16201. Through the processing of draft plan of subdivision 30T-16201, we understand that a portion of
the draft plan requires a second access and planning staff have identified Activas lands as an opportunity
to provide a second means of access to serve a portion of 30T-16201. Accordingly, staff have suggested
that a draft plan of subdivision could be processed on Activas land in order to facilitate this second
access. Furthermore, street access and servicing of Activas lands have been considered and are
essentially fixed through the development of 30T-16201.
We therefore request that our clients lands be as identified on the attached plan and be considered as
Priority B in recognition of the existing residential designation in the Official Plan and the
interrelationship between our clients lands and Property 31.
Thank you for considering our request and we look forward to discussing these matters with you in
greater detail, if required.

OUR FILE: 8784AF
We are writing on behalf of Activa Holdings Inc., relative to their lands located within the Dundee North
Growth Area. We appreciate and support the identification of Dundee North in the KGMP. We ask that
you consider the following comments and clarify the area specific analysis as appropriate:
1)We have attached a plan that identifies property lines and ask that the Kitchener Growth
Management Plan be clarified by illustrating property lines and assign a property number to
each ownership parcel.
2)Municipal Class Environmental Assessments have been completed for the South Strasburg Trunk
Sanitary Sewer and the Doon South Pumping Station. Kindly clarify that sanitary servicing of
Dundee North will be in accordance with the approved Municipal Class Environmental
Assessments.
3)A Municipal Class Environmental Assessment for Strasburg Road has been completed and has
confirmed the alignment of the south leg of the Strasburg Road extension which runs through
Dundee North. It has also been determined that Blair Creek Drive is to be extended westerly
from Riedel Drive to the Strasburg Road extension. The City of Kitcheners Transportation Master
Plan has also confirmed the need for a new east-west collector road connecting Strasburg Road
with Fischer-Hallman Road. Goal 3 (City Streets) should be clarified accordingly.
4)Although a detail, it is worth noting the draft approved subdivision to the north makes provision
for road connections to Dundee North.
5)The planned extension of the South Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer (Project SA12) has been
finalized and is shown on the attached plan. We ask that you clarify the Kitchener Growth
Management Plan by showing the final sewer alignment.

OUR FILE: Y325Y
We are writing on behalf of the owner of Property 122. This property is located at the northeasterly
intersection of Fischer-Hallman and Bleams Roads. The property information summarized on Page 41 of
the draft KGMP includes the following statement:
requires confirmation of sanitary servicing solution which may be dependent upon other lands.
I confirm, a sanitary servicing solution has been finalized and includes the extension of a sanitary sewer
within the Fischer-Hallman Road right-of-way. The sanitary sewer is to connect to the Middle Strasburg
Trunk Sanitary Sewer. Please reflect this servicing strategy in the KGMP.
We understand that infrastructure in the vicinity of Strasburg Creek is to be coordinated and constructed
at the same time. We also understand Fischer-Hallman Road is intended to be upgraded in 2019. We
note the Fischer-Hallman Road culvert (Project SW7) is scheduled for 2018
2020 and the Middle

for 2022
2023. We ask that you revise the scheduling of the various infrastructure works such that
infrastructure is coordinated with the upgrades to Fischer-Hallman Road in which should be advanced to
2018. The coordinated provision of infrastructure will minimize environmental impacts and disruption to
the community and would be in keeping with the intent of the Rosenberg Secondary Plan. Please also
ensure services necessary for the development of the Fischer-Hallman Road corridor north of the Middle
Strasburg Trunk Sanitary Sewer are coordinated with the upgrades to Fischer-Hallman Road.
We thank you in advance for your consideration.

These lands are also located within the Rosenberg Secondary Plan Area of Kitchener.
We are pleased to see that the above noted properties have been identified as Priority B lands,
with the intent of the KGMP being that lands with this priority level Å be actively worked on with
high priority in the coming 2-year timeframe Æ. We are also pleased that the description for
Parcel #133 acknowledges that additional lands (which are now in the CityÈs urban area) are to
be added to Parcel #133 through a future amendment to the Rosenberg Secondary Plan. In this
regard, we note that the map on page 6 of the KGMP depicts these additional lands for Parcel
#133, whereas the map on page 40 does not. We would request that the City please update the
map on page 40 to be consistent with the map shown on page 6 (see Figures 1 & 2 on next
page).
Overall, we are supportive of the Draft KGMP 2017-2019+, including our request in the above
paragraph regarding the correct depiction of the additional lands for Parcel #133. Thank you for
the opportunity to comment on the Draft KGMP 2017-2019+. Please do not hesitate to contact
