Description of the Proposed Amendment
The City of Burlington Official Plan (1997) designates the subject property as ‘Residential Medium Density’ which permits ground or non-ground-oriented housing units with a density ranging between 26 and 50 units per net hectare and ‘Mixed Use Corridor – General’ which permits a mix of uses including residential, office and a range of retail and service commercial uses. Site-specific OPA 116 further permits a 7-storey mixed use building with a maximum density of 234 units per hectare for the property 92 Plains Rd. E. The application proposes to amend the Official Plan (1997) to “Mixed Use Corridor – General” designation to permit an increased height and maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
The City’s new Official Plan (2020, subject to appeals) designates the property ‘Urban Corridor’ and is located within the Aldershot MTSA Area. Within the Aldershot GO MTSA, the subject site is located within the Aldershot Main Street Precinct which is intended to contain a mix of uses.
The site is zoned as ‘MXG-498’ (Mixed Use General with site exception 498) which permits for a range of retail and service commercial uses as well as office, community, automotive, entertainment and recreation uses and as ‘RM1-346’ (Medium Density Residential with site exception 346) which permits detached, semi-detached, duplex and triplex buildings. Site exception 498 further permits a 6-storey mixed-use building (including a 7th storey rooftop terrace and mechanical penthouse) with 49 residential units and other site-specific provisions for the property 92 Plains Rd. E. Site exception 346 further permits townhouses and other site-specific provisions for the properties 104 and 84 Plains Rd. E. as well as 990 Glenwood Ave. The application proposes to amend the existing Zoning from MXG-498 and RM1-346 to MXG-498 as amended with site specific regulations.
