That, on the recommendation of the Managing

meeting held on July 24 and 25, 2012, with respect to this matter;
it being pointed out that at the public
participation meeting associated with this matter, the following individuals
made oral submissions in connection therewith:
·
Michelle
Doornbosch, Zelinka Priamo Limited, on behalf of City Centre Storage and Sam
Adams – advising that her clients recently built a 90,000 square foot storage
building; pointing out a landscaped section to the east of the building;
expressing concern that the 13,000 m2 cap would be imposed instead
of the 23,000 m2 cap; indicating that no restrictions have been
placed on the York Developments site; advising that, should the owner wish to
expand the building in the future, the building already exceeds the floor area;
indicating that, in 2009, the total footage allowed was 19,000 m2;
expressing concern with the discrepancies in allowable footage; requesting that
this matter be referred back to the Civic Administration for further
consideration; and requesting that the Civic Administration review their
policies with existing commercial users in the area.
·
Richard
Zelinka, Zelinka Priamo Limited, on behalf of FCHT Holdings (Ontario)
Corporation, Loblaw Properties Limited, Barvest Realty Inc., Sunningdale
Developments Inc. and Auburn Developments – indicating that, by removing the
floor area cap and by explicitly allowing a supermarket on the York
Developments property, the proposed Official Plan Amendment conflicts with the
City of London Official Plan policies, with respect to the scale and function
of the Neighbourhood Commercial Node; undermines the approved site community
commercial node at Richmond Street and Sunningdale Road; indicating that the
supermarket is an important anchor for community commercial and should be
located in the designated community commercial node and not as a second
supermarket in the neighbourhood commercial area; advising that this will have
adverse impacts on traffic and the city’s arterial road system in the Fanshawe
Park Road/Wonderland Road area; advising that it is telling that there is no
clear indication of the size of the Neighbourhood Commercial Node today; and requesting
that the Official Plan Amendment not be approved to lift the cap for the York
Developments site and permission for the supermarket at this site.
·
Carol
Weibe, MHBC Planning, on behalf of York Developments – expressing support for
the Civic Administrations’ recommendation; indicating that the Civic
Administration tried to explain the complicated history of this site to the
Committee; advising that the original Official Plan Amendment included the
property located at 1771 Wonderland Road; noting that this was appealed;
further noting that the appeal was withdrawn in December, 2012; indicating that
the issues outlined by Mr. Zelinka will be dealt with at the Ontario Municipal
Board hearing in February, 2013; and advising that the Official Plan Amendment
being brought forward tonight will not preclude his clients from being heard at
the Ontario Municipal Board. (2013-D09)
