1. MARKHAM CENTRE AND WARD 3
- POPULATION PROJECTIONS AND
IMPLICATIONS (10.0)
Presentation Memo
Peter Miasek, President, Unionville Ratepayers Association, and Harry
Eaglesham gave a presentation on the URS Assessment of Markham Centre and Ward
3 population projections and implications. The analysis method, findings, and
conclusions were reviewed.
The URA suggests that development in Markham Centre and in Markham in
general will create unacceptable congestion in the near future. Although the City
has concluded that the projected 2031 level of development can be accommodated
with transportation improvements, the URA projects that population growth will
be more aggressive than anticipated, and improvements will be needed by 2023. The
URA recommends additional strategic transportation improvements: advancing the
Markham Centre Mobility Hub/East Precinct Plan/MC Secondary Plan; reviewing the
pace of other infrastructure such as schools; considering implementation of caps or holds; and, conducting an employment
count analysis.
Jim Baird, Commissioner of
Development Services, addressed the staff memo responding to the URA
presentation, advising that the 2009 figures were forecasts only. While
planning applications are trending towards higher density than forecast, the units
still have to be built, and the market is cyclical. Improvements within the
City’s control – roads and VIVA – have been advancing, and the mobility hub
study may encourage the province to provide a funding commitment for
infrastructure. The use of Hold provisions could be considered in the Secondary
Plan discussion.
In response to the staff memo,
Mr. Miasek suggested that the Markham Center Secondary Plan should be accelerated
and should include employment forecasts as well as establishing milestones and
a comprehensive development phasing plan. The URA also recommends that the
residents be fully involved in the development of Markham Centre. The Committee
suggested that basement apartments be added to the URA calculations.
The Committee expressed
concern for traffic congestion and requested that staff follow up on the URA
presentation. Staff outlined the next
steps of the mobility hub study followed by updating transportation studies and
developing a new Secondary Plan.
The Committee discussed encouraging residents to use transit, the
City’s efforts to build transit-oriented development, working with developers to
create the transit hub, and the need for the province to provide the tools and
infrastructure to accommodate mandated growth.
The Committee expressed appreciated to the URA for their deputation and
research.

2. TRANSCANADA PIPELINES (10.0)
Presentation
Mark Mulder, Manager, Pipeline
Projects, TransCanada, gave a presentation on the proposed expansion of the TransCanada
Pipeline in Markham. Other representatives were also in attendance:
- Janice Badgley, Senior Community Relations
Advisor
- Brian MacDonnell, Senior Land Representative
- Sharan Kaur, External Communications
Specialist
- Adrienne Fournier –
Associate, Community Relations
Mr. Mulder provided
an overview of TransCanada’s proposed Canadian Mainline Natural Gas Pipeline expansion,
being 370 km in length between Markham and the community of Iroquois
in South Dundas Township. The pipeline is regulated by the National Energy
Board (NEB).
The expansion involves adding
a third pipe, 36 inches in diameter, beside two existing pipes. Additional right-of-way
is required from Warden Avenue between Elgin and 19th Avenue, to
beyond the east boundary of Markham. The expansion involves easement agreements
with 1300 landowners who will be compensated at appraised market value for any
encumbered lands, and for any land used during construction. The project began
in December, 2013, and is at the environmental and engineering field work phase.
Two rounds of Community Open Houses will be held, and construction anticipated
to commence in 2016, pending approval.
Mr. Mulder responded to questions regarding other pipelines in Markham,
the composition of the pipe, the Environmental Assessment, protection of
wildlife, mitigation of invasive species, and impacts to Rouge Park. Mr. Mulder
confirmed that Markham does not own any of the subject lands, that emergency
response plans have been prepared, and that roads and pathways can cross over
the pipelines.

8. CITY OF MARKHAM OFFICIAL PLAN 2013:
PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS -
SUPPLEMENTAL (10.0)
Report
Jim Baird, Commissioner of Development Services
introduced this matter as a follow-up to previous Committee discussions
regarding Markham Airport. The Committee was provided with correspondence from
John Mascarin, representing Markham Airport, with requested wording amendments.
Marg Wouters, Senior Manager, Policy & Research,
clarified the proposed Official Plan designation and Council’s position that
the existing airport be recognized, and that Markham be kept informed of any
changes, while recognizing that airports are federally regulated. Staff advised
that the facility is a registered aerodrome and is not a certified airport;
however, the terms ‘aerodrome’ and ‘airport’ are used interchangeably and
Transport Canada identifies the facility as Toronto Markham Airport.
The Committee reviewed the correspondence and suggested
the facility be identified as a “registered aerodrome”. It was recommended that
the wording of “not supporting expansion” could be retained as a statement of
Council’s position but would not impact the decisions of other levels of
government. The Committee discussed Markham’s interest and authority in the
facility.
Alan Rubin, representing the Toronto Markham Airport, gave
a brief history of the airport and potential future.
Dave McKennitt, representing the Dickson Hill Hamlet
and Neighbourhood Community Association, gave a PowerPoint presentation,
identifying concerns for the impacts of the airport on neighbouring properties
and the City’s liability. Mr. McKennitt displayed aerial photos demonstrating
the evolution of the operations and land fill conditions of the airport lands,
and the impacts on surrounding properties and the watercourse. Mr. McKennitt
suggested extensive rehabilitation is required and requested documents to
contain wording that would:
- Establish responsibility and a timeline for
rehabilitation of approximately 100 acres of farmland
- Ensure existing zoning does not change
- Ensure that all remedial activities meet or exceed
federal, provincial and municipal environmental standards and guidelines
- Ensure that operational guidelines are enforced, to
contain and clean up all contamination while the Markham Airport is operating
and when it is decommissioned.
Mr. McKennitt also commented on past presentations to
the City and discussions with the Manager of By-law Enforcement in this regard,
without a satisfactory outcome. He requested assistance from City staff to substantiate
the aerial photos from the presentation.
The Committee referred to a newspaper article in 2009
that quotes the Manager of By-law Enforcement with respect to site alteration
permits and Stop Work Orders, and requested that By-law Enforcement and Legal
staff provide an update on this matter.

9. PROPOSED THORNHILL PARK IMPROVEMENTS
UNDER SECTION 37 (10.0)
Report
Rino Mostacci, Director of Planning and Urban Design, provided
an overview of the Section 37 funds from World on Yonge and advised of the
recommendations of the Thornhill Subcommittee in consultation with the
community. The Director reviewed the budget proposal and advised that the
School Board has agreed to a cost-sharing agreement for the equipment at E J
Sands School.
Richard Mashregi, representing the Grandview Area Residents
Association and the Ward One South Residents Association Inc., spoke in support
of the proposal, discussing Section 37 policies, the World on Yonge
development, the allocation of $2,000,000 for community amenities, and the list
of projects endorsed by Council on September 17, 2013. Mr. Mashregi noted a
Committee member’s objection to the play equipment being located on the EJ
Sands school property, as the general public would not be allowed access to
this play area during school hours. The Commissioner of Community Services
advised that the City and school will enter into an access agreement that will
address this issue.
Mr. Mashregi responded to questions from the Committee
regarding public consultation. The Committee requested a copy of the
ratepayers’ advertising notices. Staff were directed to review the public
consultation process for Section 37 funds, and it was recommended that staff take
the lead for consultation in the future.

and staff working on this project.
