Origin
Summary
This report recommends approval of a Site and Area Specific Policy as an amendment to the Official Plan for lands within the Bathurst Quay neighbourhood. The Site and Area Specific Policy implements the findings of the Bathurst Quay Neighbourhood Plan Study initiated in 2014. The Bathurst Quay Neighbourhood Plan Study established a vision, guiding principles and actions to provide a framework for achieving a complete community on the waterfront. The findings of the Study were endorsed by City Council on July 4, 2017, and Council requested that City Planning bring forward any necessary Official Plan amendments to implement the Study.
City Planning has prepared a recommended Site and Area Specific Policy that:
- Retains the current land use designations as identified in the Central Waterfront Secondary Plan;
- Is guided by a vision to transform the Canada Malting Silos site and Marina Quay West into a Community and Cultural Hub for the neighbourhood and a new waterfront destination;
- Supports the conservation and adaptive re-use of the historic Canada Malting Silos and the Silos Administration Building; and
- Introduces a Framework Plan to guide the design and configuration of improvements to parks, open spaces, pedestrian and cycling connections, streetscapes, community services and facilities, the Canada Malting Silos site and Marina Quay West.
The introduction of the proposed Site and Area Specific Policy within the Bathurst Quay neighbourhood is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (2104) and conforms to the Growth Plan (2017). It also supports and advances the policies of the Official Plan and Central Waterfront Secondary Plan as it achieves important City building objectives for waterfront renewal, the conservation of significant heritage resources, preserving and strengthening the range and quality of community services and facilities and parks and open spaces, all essential elements of complete communities.
