03-113694, ZA 04-024270) (10.5)
Staff

Committee meeting regarding the appeal of the Wismer Markham Developments Inc.
zoning application to the Ontario Municipal Board by the applicant, on the
basis of the Town’s lack of decision. The applicant has indicated the proposal

13. COMMERCIAL POLICY REVIEW AND
HIGHWAY 48 RETAIL IMPACT PEER
REVIEW (10.8)
Staff gave a background summary of the Commercial
Policy Review and Highway 48 Retail Impact Study, prepared by
John Winter Associates Limited, and the Peer Review of both reports as directed
by Development Services Committee.
James Tait of Tait Economic Research Incorporated, and
Scott Burns, Planning Consultant, gave an overview presentation of the Peer Review.
A full report will be presented in the near future.
With respect to the Commercial
Policy Review, the consultants looked at the assumptions and
methodology used and concluded that the research and analysis conducted was
sufficient to support the conclusions as well as the comments provided on a
number of contemporary challenges facing the Town.
With respect to the Highway 48 Retail Impact Study,
the consultants support the conclusion that there is a demand for retail on
Highway 48, and that there is an opportunity for the Markham and Unionville
Main Street BIA’s to work together so that they can co-exist with the new
retail.
The consultants noted that Markham
has already implemented action plans to address a number of the challenges, and
continues to address key areas surrounding planning policies. The Town needs to
focus on determining the need and location of more retail after 2011, and
ensure that commercial amenity and other areas are monitored for that purpose.
Committee
discussed the retail hierarchy, specific retail uses for community amenity
areas, and the opportunity to negotiate with developers who are drawn to the
local income levels.

Regional Councillor B. O’Donnell

14. TOWN OF MARKHAM
PARKING STRATEGY- PAID PARKING (2.17)
Staff conveyed
appreciation to the various departments that assisted in this project. A
summary presentation was made, and a formal report will be provided at a future
meeting.
Staff
provided background for the Parking Strategy review. It is proposed that a
Parking Authority be established, known as “Markham Parking”, with a mandate to
be self-sustaining, a composition of 3-5 members of Council (evolving in the
future to an independent committee), and with an objective to gain revenues for
development of future parking structures. A financial analysis of capital,
operating, and revenue profit/loss for the first three years was reviewed.
Three
locations have been identified for initial implementation:
-
Markham Centre (Clegg
Road/Cox Boulevard): 57 on-street stalls
-
Allstate
Parkway: 75 on-street stalls
-
Ferrier Street/Acadia
Avenue: 46 on-street stalls
The next
steps will be to establish Markham Parking through Council appointment in June,
2005, and to hold public information meetings with stakeholders and bring
forward parking by-law amendments schedules for adoption. The parking set fine
schedule will require approval by the Chief Justice of the Ontario Supreme
Court. It is anticipated that the approvals, equipment and signage
installation, staffing, and administrative procedures can be in place prior to
the start of Seneca classes in September.
Committee
discussed off-setting the Town’s processing costs with the profits from parking
on private property, and the need to monitor and protect parking spots along
the transit corridor once the Viva transit service commences in the fall.
Committee
requested a comparison of fines for Toronto
and other cities. A formula for dispersing revenues into the community and into
parking growth funds will be a decision of Council. It was noted that the purpose
of the paid parking program is to intensify land use and encourage transit use.
Moved by:
Regional Councillor B. O’Donnell
Seconded
by: Councillor K. Usman
That the staff
presentation regarding Markham’s
parking strategy be received.

28. 150 MAIN STREET, UNIONVILLE (2019311 ONTARIO
INC)
APPLICATIONS FOR OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING
BY-LAW AMENDMENTS (OP 04 028702, ZA 04 027514) (10.3, 10.5) Report
Staff gave a brief review of the application for
restaurant and office use at 150 Main
Street, Unionville. Staff indicated support for office
use, but not the restaurant use as proposed, due to parking and resident
concerns.
Raymond Smylie, 154
Main Street, stated his opinion that the current
zoning by-law should be maintained, and
that office use may fill the space but it would be of little benefit to the
street because the building would be vacant during nights and weekends. He was
concerned that other proposals for office use would follow. Committee suggested
that many of the retail establishments on Main Street
close by 6:00 p.m.
Greg McCormick, 154A Main
Street, Chair of the Unionville BIA, suggested
that the street needs to be considered as a whole, and that definitions for “at-grade”
and “main floor” are confusing. Staff responded with clarification of the
definitions, and advised that the terminology used in the report is for discussion
purposes, but the definitions in the by-law are clear.
Staff explained that the recommendations are based on the
peculiarities of this site, as the main floor is not located “at grade” as other
buildings on the street are. This building has never been used for retail, so the
retail rate on the street would not be affected.
Jesse Agnew, representing the applicant, 2019311
Ontario Inc., spoke against denial of the restaurant use. He discussed the
impact of office use and the percentage of other buildings that are used for
that purpose, stating that he owns another building on the street that contains
seven retailers, only one of which remains open during evenings, whereas a
restaurant could be open every night. Mr. Agnew also described the restrictions
to the site caused by its Heritage designation. He reiterated that the building
has been empty for a long time and is of no benefit to the street vacant. Mr.
Agnew requested a compromise and proposed half office space and half restaurant
use limited to fine dining, for the building.
In response to Committee’s questions, staff advised
that the parking available for the half office/half restaurant proposal would
be close to the requirement. Staff advised that should the Committee approve
restaurant use for a portion of the building, it must correspond to parking
availability, and the three conditions contained in the staff report regarding
restaurant use.
Committee discussed that the Secondary Plan
rationalizes the permitted uses on the ground floor “to maintain animation and
pedestrian activity and interest at street level”. This building cannot provide
a continuous function to the public due to the step-up and the lack of window
presence. Committee considered the public concerns for this proposal to be
similar to the response to the proposal by another restaurant in the early 1990’s,
which helped to revitalize the street. The subject building has been empty for eight
years, and it was compared to a similar church-style building on Old
Yonge Street that has been empty for almost 32
years.
The Committee acknowledged the difficulty of this
application, and the investments made by the applicant and the other people on Main
Street. In light of parking issues and the
precedents that may be made, it was suggested that the zoning by-law for this
area be reexamined rather than allowing an exception. It is important to
identify this site as unique and to be sensitive to the repercussions for other
recent, current and future similar applications.

Seconded by: Regional Councillor J. Jones
That
the Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment applications (Files OP

Ontario Inc. be referred to staff for a presentation in the near future at a
Part A session of Development Services Committee or Committee of the Whole (not
June 7, 2005) on the impacts that approval of this application would have on

similar applications.
