In August of 2018, Council approved a Zoning By-law Amendment application to change
the zoning of the subject lands at 120 Victoria Street South in Zoning By-law 85-1 to
Warehouse District Zone with Special Regulation Provision 1 R and 71 OR, Special Use
Provisions 294U and 463U and Holding Provisions 43H and 80H a Holding Provision
(24H) to allow for a phased mixed use development requiring site contamination
remediation for sensitive uses.
At the time of the above mentioned Zoning By-law Amendment application, Holding
Provisions 43H and 80H were retained within the zoning of the property to prohibit any
residential use (80H) and other sensitive land uses (43H) until such time as a Record of
Site Condition is approved by the Ministry of the Environment.
The City is in receipt of a letter of acknowledge from the Ministry of Environment dated
January 28, 2021 (Attachment `C') advising that a Record of Site Condition has been
completed in accordance with Guidelines for the Decommissioning and Clean-up of sites
in Ontario. As such planning staff is satisfied that the applicant has met the requirements
of 43H related to the approval of the Record of Site Condition and has no objection to the
lifting of the Holding Provision to permit the use of a museum (and other sensitive uses) on
the subject lands at 120 Victoria Street South
Based on the above, Planning staff is of the opinion that the requested zoning by-law
amendment to remove Holding Provision 43H is appropriate at this time since the
requirements to release the holding provision have been met. Planning Staff recommends
removing Holding Provision 43H as shown on Map No. 1 contained within Attachment `A'.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
This report supports the delivery of core services.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Capital Budget — The recommendation has no impact on the Capital Budget.
Operating Budget — The recommendation has no impact on the Operating Budget.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:
INFORM — This report has been posted to the City's website with the agenda in advance
of the council / committee meeting. Notice of the intention to pass a By-law to remove the
Holding Provision was placed in the Record on September 8, 2023 (Attachment `B').
Under the Planning Act a statutory public meeting is not required for zoning by-law
amendments to remove Holding Provisions and a neighbourhood circulation is not
required.
