OSCA P&Z PRESENTATIONOttawa’s Draft Official PlanWhat will it mean for Old Ottawa South over the Next 25 Years?
Positive City-wide Policy Moves
• Forthcoming climate change mitigation standards for new developments
• Preserving agriculture and environmental land in rural area
• Developing future communities as 15-minute neighbourhoods
• Encouraging active transportation—walking, cycling, transit
• Higher densities around Transit Stations
• Push for greater housing choices
2
Positive Policy Moves for Old Ottawa South
Along the Rideau Canal:
• A new ‘Special District’ designation
(from Laurier Avenue Bridge to Hartwell Locks)
• Encouraging compatibility of development with existing character
• A secondary planning study to guide development and to look for ways to enhance current heritage protection (from Bank to Bronson)
3
Quick Highlights for Old Ottawa South
• We are a 15-Minute Neighbourhood
• Part of new Inner Urban Transect
• We have a Transforming Overlay (changes slated to occur quickly)
• We can expect increased densities in all parts of our neighbourhood
• Low-rise apartments 3–16 units and buildings with 3–4 larger flats
“613 flats” in all areas designated “Neighbourhood”
• Future zoning will regulate “building form”, not unit type
Inner Urban
Transect
“613 flats” concept

Highlights by Street Type
Mainstreet (Bank Street)• Mixed-use buildings up to 9 storeys, as-of-right
Minor Corridor (Bronson Avenue; Sunnyside between Bronson & Bank)• Residential buildings 4-6 storeys, depending on lot size• Locally-orientated businesses possible on ground floor with residential above
Collector Streets (Sunnyside between Bank & Riverdale; Riverdale between Bank & Main)• No height specified, but buildings on “major roads” allowed up to 4 storeys• Locally-orientated businesses possible on ground floor with residential above
Streets with Neighbourhood Designation• Residential buildings, generally up to 3 storeys, but 4 storeys possible• Single family, semi, triplex, small apartment, 613 flats• Small-scale commercial allowed
6
Mainstreet (Bank Street)
Mixed-use buildings up to 9 storeys, as-of-right
7
Residential buildings 4-6 storeys, depending on lot size
Locally-orientated businesses on ground floor with residential above
Minor Corridor (Bronson Avenue) + (Sunnyside between Bronson and Bank Streets)
8
“Neighbourhood” Streets (ex. Fentiman at Bristol)
Residential buildings, generally up to 3 storeys, but 4 storeys possible
Single family, semi, triplex, small apartment, 613 flats
Small-scale commercial allowed
9
Height limiting Factors on Mainstreet and Minor Corridors
• Lot depth
• Right-of-way width
• Shadowing impacts
• Transitions to abutting residential lots
• Practical and technical considerations
• Height to right-of-way width ratios
(normally between 1:1 and 1:3 on Mainstreet and 1:1 on Corridors)
10
Reduced Compatibility
Currently, Mature Neighbourhood Overlay Zoning requires new housing to fit-in with neighbours
by regulating height, parking and other features
Currently, zoning on residential streets allows:
• 8.5 m in R1 and generally, in R2, as well
• 10 m in R3 for detached, semi-detached and row (for flat roofs) and up to 11m for peaked roof
Future zoning will allow up to 3 storeys and 4 is possible. This means:
• Increased height to 12 m (3-storey x 4 m) or 16 m (4-storey x 4 m) throughout OOS
Official Plan’s desired form for our community is “urban” This means:
• Reduced front yard or side yards, and greater lot coverage
• Limited or no parking
• Smaller landscape areas
11
Neighbourhood Impacts
• “Lower density typologies”, such as new singles and semis, may be prohibited
• On-site parking may be prohibited, potentially increasing on-street parking; permit parking allowed
• Small-scale commercial allowed in neighbourhood interior, as well as on mainstreet and corridor street
• “Undue restrictions” on rooming houses to be removed, possibly opening door to student bunkhouses
• All required outdoor amenity space can be provided on rooftops and balconies.
12
Neighbourhood Impacts (cont’d)
• Proposed reduction of Site Plan Control for low-rise buildings meeting “regeneration” objectives
• Mature trees and space for new trees are threatened by high lot coverage(Site plan control to require space for trees, but Official Plan reduces site plan control for low-rise housing.)
• A 40% citywide target for tree canopy, but no tree canopy coverage targets by neighbourhood
• Policies for streets designated “Neighbourhood” will result in a homogeneous character throughout OOS’s residential streets
13
