PART A PART B PART C THE PREAMBLE, does not constitute part of this Amendment THE AMENDMENT, consisting of the following and Schedule "A" constitutes Amendment No. the Official Plan for the Town of Kincardine text 1 to THE APPENDICES, do not constitute part of this Amendment. Appendix I contains the Planning Department Report. Appendix II contains the Municipal Record pertaining to this Amendment. , - PART A THE PREAMABLE PURPOSE . The purpose of this Amendment is to change the des1gnation of certain lands from 'Highway Commercial' to 'General Commercial' to permit the development of a shopping centre containing a range of commercial uses. LOCATION The lands sUbject to this Amendment comprise Block "8" and part of Block "K", Plan M-33, in the Town of Kincardine. BASIS The lands affected by this Amendment are presently designated 'Highway Commercial' on Schedule "A" of the Official Plan. At the time the Official Plan was prepared, it was anticipated that the areas designated 'General Commercial' within the downtown core and within an existing shopping plaza at the north end of the Town would be sufficient in size and level of services to serve the Town of Kincardine and the surrounding area for some years to come. The pOlicies of the 'General Commercial' designation are designed to ensure that the downtown core area remains the focal point for the commercial, business and institutional activities within the Town and that new commercial development does not adversely affect this area. The Bruce County South Official Plan also contains pOlicies designed to maintain and strengthen the existing downtown commercial areas and to ensure that new commercial development does not adversely affect these areas. This Amendment is the result of an application on behalf of the prospective owner. As part of this application the proponent, has stated that the only vacant parcel of land presently designated 'General Commercial' has limited potential for retail development as the parcel could only accommodate approximately 1,400 square metres (1500 square feet) of retail space when allowing for required parking. It was also stated that - due to land assembly costs - the possibility of redeveloping existing properties designated 'General Commercial' was not a viable alternatiye. ,- . PART 8 - THE AMENDMENT INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT All of this part of the Amendment ent1tled Part B - - consists of the fOllowing text and schedule Amendment No. 1 to the Official Plan of the Town of The Amendment constituting Kincardine. 1.

The app1ioant 1S propos~ng to amend the Offic~al Plan designation to 'General Com.erc1al' whioh would permit the development of a w1de range. of reta~l and servioe commero1a1 uses. New comøeroial development w11l be sUbJeot to the Site Plan Controls of the Planning Aot; a nUmber of other requirements of the Offic1al Plan. suoh as landsoap~ng. bUffering and soreen1ng will also have to be addressed. The basis of the current Coemerc1a1 Development Polioies of the Town's Offic1al Plan 1S that the Central 8usiness Area will play the major role in the retail. office and institutional fabr~c of the community and will be the main foous of commeroia1 aotivity in the Town. Consequently. one of the speoific development po1ic1es established by the Plan is to promote and encourage the development of a v~ab1e downtown. Commerc~al development outside of the downtown is reoognized by the Plan, provided that suoh development does not detraot from. or compete on a funotional basis with. the downtown and the existing shopping oentre. In addition to these looal Commercial Development POlicies the subject lands are also affected by more generally app1ioable Comqeroial Development Policies contained in the Bruoe County South Official Plan. These pOlioies deal with large soale commeroial development proposals and are designed to ensure that potential long term impaots on existing commero~a1 concentrations. espeoially the downtown core. are adeQuately addressed. b) Zoninq By-Law: The subjeot lands are presently zoned 'C3 - Highway Commercial' by the Comprehens1ve Zon1ng By-Law for the Town of Kinoardine. The 'C3' zone permits highway commero1al uses such as automobile servioe stations and building supply centres. The appl1cant is proþOs1ng to rezone the land to 'C2- Shopping Centre Commeroia1'. The 'C2' zone would perm~t a wide range of commercial enterpr1ses including a shopping centre. ~ -5- CONCLUSIONS AND RECOHHENDATIONS: . In support of the sUbject proposa~, the app11cant has indicated that the total proposal ~s 1ntended to accommodate a mixture of tenants requ~ring 50,000 square feet of retail. office and general commerc1al space. The app11cants have further indicated that based upon the~r Studv and ana1vs1s of the ex~st1ng c~rcia11Y zoned propert1es ~n the TONn, the limited property sizes and assoc1ated land assembly costs make the sUbject lands the only feasible locat~on in their opinion. As noted earlier, the basic objectives of both the Town and County Official Plans is to promote and encourage the DONntoNn Business Areas as the main focus of commercial activity Nithin the TONn. In this regard, it is suggested that more specific information shoUld be provided by the applicants regarding the type and size of the intended commercial uses; alternative sites which were investigated; and an analysis of the impact(s) of the subject proposal on the function and viability of the existing commercial areas in the TONn. This additional supporting information would permit a more accurate assessment of the merits of the proposals and its conformity to the basic commercial development object~ves of both the TONn and County Official Plans. In addition to the foregoing, it should be noted that the development of the site requ1res building and land use perm~ts and access perm1ts from the Ontar10 M~n1stry of Transportat10n. The Ministry has commented, verbally, that a traffic study w~11 be reQuired to assess the ~mpact of the development upon the traffic patterns of the area. The traffic studY will have to be completed pr~or to the issuance by MTO of access and land use and bu~ld1ng permits.
