it being pointed out that at the public participation meeting associated with this matter, the individuals indicated on the attached public participation meeting record made oral submissions regarding these matters;

it being further noted that the Municipal Council approves this application for the following reasons:

·                     the recommended amendment is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), 2014, which promotes intensification, redevelopment and a compact form in strategic locations to minimize land consumption and servicing costs and provide for a range of housing types and densities to meet projected requirements of current and future residents;

·                    the recommended amendment is consistent with the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 which requires planning authorities to facilitate pedestrian and non-motorized movement by promoting a land use pattern, density and a mix of uses that serve to minimize the length and number of vehicle trips and support the development of viable choices and plans for public transit and other alternative transportation modes;

·                     the recommended amendment supports the objectives of the Downtown Area designation of the City of London Official Plan which encourages growth in the residential population of the downtown through high density residential development and design features which serve to enhance the pedestrian environment; 

·                     the recommended amendment will allow for the proposed development including the required increase to density, through a bonus zone which requires that the ultimate form of development be consistent with the site plan and elevations appended to the amending by-law. Should the applicant not satisfy all of the provisions of the bonus zone, the increased density will not be permitted;

·                     the recommended amendment will facilitate an enhanced form of development which includes an architecturally defined base, middle and top with the base serving to frame the pedestrian realm at a human-scale, the middle to provide for step-backs and variation in the massing of the proposed structure to reduce the visual impact of the tower and provide for effective integration with the surrounding built context of the downtown, and a visually attractive cap on the tower which screens all mechanical elements and enhances the City skyline; 

·                     the recommended bonus zone provides for a density of 1,498 units per hectare in return for a series of design related matters and contributions in accordance with Section 19.4.4 of the Official Plan; and,

·                     the recommended amendment maintains the spirit and intent of the Downtown Heritage Conservation District and other relevant Council approved Guideline Documents which provide direction for development in the Downtown.  (2017-D09)

Group Home Type 1 Uses with Regards to Distance Separation Regulations of the Zoning By-law (Z-8779) (Relates to Bill No. 362)

That, on the recommendation of the Manager, Development Planning, the following actions be taken with respect to the Zoning By-law for Group Home Type 1 uses and the use of separation distance regulations within the by-law to regulate the location of Group Home Type 1 uses:

a)            the proposed by-law appended to the staff report dated July 31, 2017 as APPENDIX “A” BE INTRODUCED at Municipal Council meeting to be held on August 22, 2017 to amend the Zoning By-law No Z-1, (in conformity with the Official Plan), TO amend Section 4.8 Group Homes, General Provisions of Zoning By-law No. Z-1 by removing regulations related to a 250 metre (820 feet) separation distance for Group Home Type 1 uses; and,

b)         the Civic Administration BE DIRECTED to initiate a review of Group Home Policies and Regulations and seek further public input in refining regulations and definitions for Group Homes and Supervised Care Facilities in the City, as well as any other necessary definition and policy changes; it being noted that these changes would implement action and requests from community agencies supporting peoples with developmental disabilities as well as implement direction in the Council adopted London Plan;

it being noted that the Planning and Environment Committee reviewed and received the following communications with respect to this matter:

·                     a communication from C. Butler, 863 Waterloo Street; and,

·                     a communication dated July 25, 2017 from A. Watt, Community Living London;

it being pointed out that at the public participation meeting associated with this matter, the individuals indicated on the attached public participation meeting record made oral submissions regarding these matters;

it being further noted that the Municipal Council approves this application for the following reasons:

·                    Group Home Type 1 uses provide accommodation, primarily to persons with developmental disabilities so that they can live inclusive and viable lives within all of London’s neighbourhoods.  Existing regulations that place separation distance requirements for Group Home Type 1 uses have created adverse effects to the establishment and operation of these uses;

·                    in considering the recent experiences and actions of several Ontario Municipalities in relation to group home uses and zoning regulations imposing separation distance for these uses, Council should consider amendments to the City’s approach for regulating these uses. There is no standard or land use planning evidence that supports a need for a 250 metre (820 feet) separation distance between Group Home Type 1 uses. Removing separation distance requirements for group home type 1 uses should not create any negative impacts or nuisances. Group homes are required to be located in a dwelling unit that is no different than any other house in a neighbourhood. Most residents of a Group Home Type 1 use do not drive so parking and traffic should not be an issue. Form and density are also not likely to generate any impacts as occupancy is still controlled and must occur within a single detached, semi, duplex or triplex dwelling;

·                    the recommended amendment and direction for further review and amendments are consistent with, and will serve to implement, the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement, 2014 (2014 PPS), which emphasizes the need to plan communities in a manner that supports persons with disabilities (PPS1.1.1(f)), 1.4.3);

·                    the recommended amendment and direction for further review and amendments are consistent with the policies of the Official Plan by encouraging the inclusion of group homes in all residential designations. Recognizing the distinction between the two types of Group Homes permitted in the Zoning By-law, the intent of the Official Plan is maintained by retaining regulations that prevent the concentration of Group Home Type 2 uses. Amendments relating to separation distance provisions within the Official Plan will be considered as part of the ongoing review of Group Homes and Supervised Residences policies and regulations in the City of London;

·                    the recommended amendment and direction for further review and amendments are consistent with, and will serve to implement, the policies of the London Plan;

·                    the recommended amendment and direction for further review and amendments will protect the City of London from potential challenges brought forward through The Ontario Human Rights Code, which provides for rights and opportunities for all people without discrimination on a number of grounds, including disability;

·                    the recommended amendment and direction for further review and amendments will protect the City of London from potential challenges brought forward through Section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees equal treatment before and under the law and equal benefit of the law without discrimination based on various grounds, including mental and physical disabilities. All laws must be consistent with the Charter to be held in force and effect; and,

·                    the recommended amendments and direction for further review and amendments are consistent with the general intent of Zoning By-law No. Z-1, which provides regulations for all forms of Group Homes, Supervised Residences and land uses. Zoning By-law regulations and Official Plan policies relating to separation distances shall be maintained for Group Home Type 2 uses, pending any future review by Civic Administration.    (2017-D09)
