> prohibiting certain uses such as (i) those involving the sale or storage of
chemicals or hazardous substances (ii) day care centres, hospitals, and
nursing homes, and (iii) those involving emergency services; and
> satisfying certain requirements of the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation
Authority.
> Implementing the CTC Source Protection Plan: The Urban Areas ZBL implements
the requirements of the Credit Valley, Toronto & Region, Central Lake Ontario (CTC)
and South Georgian Bay Lake Simcoe (SGBLS) Source Protection Plans, under the
Clean Water Act, 2006 to protect the source of municipal drinking water from
contamination and overuse. The ZBL provisions restrict the establishment of certain
uses and activities on properties that are within close proximity to municipal
wellheads. The restricted uses and activities are considered by the CTC and SGBLS
Source Protection Plans to represent a risk to source water. The location of
wellheads within the communities, and two corresponding designated significant
threat areas (Significant Threat Areas 1 and 2) are shown on Schedule B to the ZBL.
The relevant provisions are contained in section 3.41 of the ZBL.
> Managing New Land Uses & Zoning Issues: The Urban Areas ZBL introduces
provisions in Schomberg and King City that were previously introduced in Nobleton
to address new uses and issues that may not have been contemplated in Zoning By
law 74-53, and/or were not relevant to the communities until more recently, including
requirements for: accessory retail, amenity areas, car washes, drive-throughs, group
homes and institutional residences, model homes, outdoor display and storage, and
patio, among others. The general provisions pertaining to each of these topics can
be found in Part 3 of the Urban Areas ZBL.
> Setting the Stage for the Future: The Urban Areas ZBL includes a Future Use (F)
zone applied to (i) existing undeveloped areas that are designated for development
by the Community Plans, and (ii) lands within the existing community that are
encouraged to redevelop in accordance with the respective Community Plan. Note
that the F zone in the Urban Areas Zoning By-law is referred to as the Future
Development Zone (FD) zone in the Nobleton Urban Area Zoning By-law. While the
zone permissions and standards remain unchanged, the term Future Use is a more
fitting description of the areas to which this zone applies throughout all three villages.
The proposed F zone permits only existing uses as of the date of the passing of the
ZBL, and only new buildings/structures associated with the existing use. The intent of
this new zone is to provide for the continued upkeep of existing uses, while
preventing the establishment of new uses that are not in accordance with the policy
direction for village development over the long-term. Future Use (F) is proposed for
the GO Station area in King City to help to ensure the efficient use and development
of land, and provide for appropriate connectivity.
The ZBL also includes a template Residential - Single Detached (R1A) that does not
currently apply on any lands, however is intended to provide direction to future single
detached residential development. The R1A zone incorporates zone standards to
provide for contemporary built form, along with requirements to minimize paving in
the front yard, and the impact of garages on the streetscape.
> Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan Conformity: Implementation of the Oak
Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan has been addressed in the final draft of the
Urban Areas ZBL. The entirety of King City and a northern portion of Nobleton are
