INTRODUCTION
KLM Planning Partners Inc. was retained by 4135199 Canada Inc., 2084937 Ontario
Limited and Sebecca Enterprises Corp. with respect to a proposal to permit the
development of their lands generally located on the east side of the existing Village of
Erin; south of County Road 124 and north of Dundas Street, east of Erin Park Drive. The
purpose of this report is to provide a planning analysis and justification in support of the
applications for Official Plan Amendments, Zoning By-law Amendment and Draft Plan of
Subdivision to implement the proposed development.
BACKGROUND
The subject lands are located in between County Road 124 and Dundas Street East in
the Village of Erin, generally east of Erin Park Drive. An unopened road allowance for
Tenth Line bisects the southern portion of the lands. They are legally described as Part
of Lots 16 and 17, Concession 10 and Part of Lot 16, Concession 11 (see Figure 1) and
are approximately 116 hectares (288 acres) in size. Topographically, the site has gently
rolling terrain that generally slopes toward the southeast and is covered with minimal
vegetation; however, a portion of a woodlot is located on the eastern boundary of the
lands. Historically, the site has been used for agricultural purposes.
Surrounding Lands
The surrounding lands consist mainly of agricultural uses to the north and east of the
site. Urban uses, such as residential dwellings and various commercial/industrial
buildings are located to the south and west. The following describes the immediate
context in detail:
North: County Road 124 (former Highway 24), and agricultural land with Tenth Line
extending northbound from County Road 124;
East:
South: Dundas Street, a small estate residential community with large lots, the EloraCataract Trailway, and an active quarry site;
West: Industrial/office park, with new lots currently under development, existing
residential dwellings and village centre beyond.

The owners have retained a team of qualified professional consultants to prepare the
necessary reports and recommendations with respect to the various matters associated
with their respective disciplines, and are as follows:
MW Hall Corporation
Archaeological Assessments Ltd.

PLANNING RATIONALE
KLM Planning Partners Inc. will review and provide comment on the policies of various
levels of government that are applicable to the subject lands, including the following:
Where applicable, we will also provide a summary and conclusion from each of the
consultant team members as they are used to formulate our recommendations and
opinion with respect to these applications.
Provincial Policy Statement (2005)
The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides municipalities with policy direction to
implement appropriate development and land use regulations. It allows for
development to occur while protecting resources of provincial interest, public health
and safety, and the quality of the natural environment. The PPS supports improved land
use planning and management, which contributes to a more effective and efficient land
use planning system.

PLANNING JUSTIFICATION REPORT
PART OF LOTS 16 & 17, CON 10, & PART OF LOT 16, CON 11
TOWN OF ERIN
Page 7
In respect of the exercise of any authority that affects a planning matter, Section 3 of
the Planning Act requires that decisions affecting planning matters shall be consistent
with policy statements issued under the Act.
The PPS focuses growth within settlement areas and away from significant or sensitive
resources and areas which may pose a risk to public health and safety. It recognizes that
the wise management of development may involve directing, promoting or sustaining
growth. It also stresses that land use must be carefully managed to accommodate
appropriate development to meet the full range of current and future needs, while
achieving efficient development patterns.
Efficient development patterns optimize the use of land, resources and public
investment in infrastructure and public service facilities. These land use patterns
promote a mix of housing, employment, parks and open spaces, and transportation
choices that facilitate pedestrian mobility and other modes of travel. They also support
the financial well-being of the Province and municipalities over the long term, and
minimize the undesirable effects of development, including impacts on air, water and
other resources.
All of the policies contained in the PPS have been reviewed and, as discussed later in
this report, the proposed development plan for the subject lands is consistent with
the Provincial Policy Statement.
Greenbelt Plan (2005)
The Greenbelt Plan was developed as a tool to identify areas where urbanization should
not occur within the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and protect the agricultural land base
and ecological features occurring in the landscape. It defines the subject lands as
Protected Countryside Area; however, this designation does not apply to the subject
lands in accordance with Section 24(2) of the Greenbelt Act (2005).
The Town of Erin Official Plan (OPA No.40), which designates the subject lands as part of
the Erin Urban Area (see Appendix VI), was adopted and came into effect on
December 14, 2004.
In accordance with section 3.4.2 of the Greenbelt plan:
Where an official plan was amended prior to December 16, 2004 to specifically
designate land use(s), this approval may continue to be recognized through the
conformity exercise addressed in section 5.3 and any further applications
required under the Planning Act or Condominium Act, 1998, to implement the
official plan approval are not required to conform with this Plan.

Therefore, the subject lands are considered to be within the Towns and Villages
designation, and the Protected Countryside designation does not apply. The urban
land use policies of the Town of Erin Official Plan are deemed to be in effect on the
subject lands and are in conformity with the Greenbelt Plan.
Places to Grow, Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (2006)
The Provincial Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH) has been prepared
as a framework for the Provinces vision for building stronger, prosperous communities
by better managing growth and new development. This vision is grounded in the
following principles that provide the basis for guiding decisions on how land is
developed, resources are managed and public dollars are invested:
The Growth Plan recognizes and promotes the traditional role of rural towns and
villages as a focus of economic, cultural and social activities that support surrounding
rural and agricultural areas across the GGH. Healthy rural communities are key to the
vitality and well-being of the whole area.
The Growth Plan encourages building complete communities, whether urban or rural.
These are communities that are well-designed, offer transportation choices,
accommodate people at all stages of life and have the right mix of housing, a good range
of jobs, and easy access to stores and services to meet daily needs.
We have reviewed the Provincial Growth Plan in its entirety, and as discussed later in
this report, the proposed development plan for the subject lands is in conformity with
the Growth Plan.
County of Wellington Official Plan (1999)
The County of Wellington has recently initiated a 5-year review of its Official Plan, which
will bring it into full conformity with the Greenbelt Plan (2005). Under proposed Official
Plan Amendment No. 81, modifications include minor adjustments to the boundaries of
Core Greenlands and settlement areas, as well as changes to development process
______________________________________________________________________________________
PLANNING JUSTIFICATION REPORT
PART OF LOTS 16 & 17, CON 10, & PART OF LOT 16, CON 11
TOWN OF ERIN
Page 9
requirements; however, none of these modifications affect the subject lands. Public
open houses are currently scheduled to review the draft amendment.
The County Official Plan designates the subject lands as an Urban Centre on Schedule
A2 (Appendix IV), which classifies them as part of the urban system permitting
residential uses of various types and densities, commercial, industrial and institutional
uses as well as parks and open space where compatible. Sections 7 and 8 of the County
Official Plan outline the detailed policies of the urban system and have been reviewed in
preparation of this report. We believe that the proposed development is consistent
with these general policies, which will be described in detail in later sections of this
report.
However, an amendment is required as it relates the projected population as well as
permitted residential densities.
The Growth Strategy Policies under Section 3.2 of the County Official Plan forecast that
83% of population growth will occur within the 15 urban centres identified in Wellington
County. Table 7 (Appendix V), under section 3.3, allocates the growth for the Town of
Erin. It projects population and households in 2011 as follows:
Erin Village:
Hillsburgh:
Rural Area:
3,000 people
1,280 people
7,650 people
1,050 households
430 households
2,480 households
Total
11,930 people
3,960 households
4,400 people
2,080 people
9,050 people
1,530 households
690 households
2,960 households
Total
15,530 people
5,180 households
Accordingly, the projected increase in population and households between 2011 and
2031 is as follows:
Erin Village:
Hillsburgh:
Rural Area:
1,400 people
800 people
1,400 people
480 households
260 households
480 households
Total
3,600 people
1,220 households
This results in almost 60% of Erins population in 2031 living in the rural area, and
almost 40% of the growth between 2011 and 2031 being accommodated in the rural
______________________________________________________________________________________

TOWN OF ERIN
Page 10
area. This would appear not to be in conformity with the Provincial Grown Plan insofar
as 39.3% of all Erins new growth is directed to the rural area, whereas the Growth Plan
and PPS direct the majority of growth to urban/settlement areas.
The County Official Plan also identifies an intensification target under section 3.3.1
which plans to achieve an overall minimum density of not less than 40 residents and
jobs per hectare in Designated Greenfield Areas.
The housing policies of Section 4.4.4 of the County Official Plan also require that new
developments strive to attain at least 16 units per gross hectare in newly developing
subdivisions. It also encourages the introduction of medium density housing types in
new subdivisions, which will be incorporated into the proposed development through
townhouse dwellings and low-rise apartments.
In order to achieve these targets, and accommodate development at an appropriate and
efficient density, the projected growth targets for the Village of Erin should be increased
and an amendment to the County of Wellington Official Plan is required (Appendix I).
With respect to Medium Density Development, section 8.3.5 a) of the County of
Wellington Official Plan identifies a maximum density for this type of development on
full municipal services of 35 units per hectare (14 units per acre) for townhouses, and 75
units per hectare (30 units per acre) for apartments.
The proposed development includes townhouse and apartment dwellings, each being
situated on small sized blocks. These result in a higher calculated density than
permitted, therefore an additional amendment to the County Official Plan is required to
increase the maximum permitted density for medium density development in both
townhouse and apartment format.
The County of Wellington Official plan also speaks to special policies for the Town of
Erin, more specifically for the provision of servicing in Section 11.2.7; which requires
that the Town initiated Servicing and Settlement Master Plan (SSMP) must be
completed before any major development is permitted.
The town may identify new land use designations for major development, however they
cannot be implemented through planning approvals prior to the SSMP being completed
and approved. The enclosed applications are intended to be reviewed concurrently
with the development of the SSMP, and will be discussed in more detail in the following
section relating to the policies of the Town of Erin Official Plan.

The Village Study must be completed and approved before any major
development is permitted. The Study will be undertaken by the Town in
consultation with the County and Credit Valley Conservation. The master plan
will be implemented by an amendment to the Official Plan for the Town of Erin.
The Town may, in its official plan, identify new land use designations but these
designations will not be implemented through further planning approvals until
the comprehensive servicing study is completed and approved. The Town may
develop a phasing strategy for development to comply with County growth
forecasts.
The Town of Erin has completed the first Phase of its Servicing and Settlement Master
Plan (SSMP). The background report identifies the need for the Town of Erin to upgrade
its services to include municipal sewage services as a way to protect the Towns ground
water resources, as well as the Credit River Watershed. The second phase of the SSMP,
the recommendation report, is expected to be completed by January 2013.
It is recognized that major development approvals cannot be granted until this plan has
been completed; however, as mentioned previously the proposed applications are
intended to be reviewed concurrently with the development of the SSMP. This would
allow for a comprehensive and coordinated review together with the Towns projected
and planned growth; consistent with Section 1.2.1 of the PPS.
Therefore, the proposed amendment to the Official Plan to facilitate the proposed
development of the subject lands is consistent with the overall intent of the Town of
Erin Official Plan.
Town of Erin Zoning By-law 07-97
The subject lands are currently zoned Future Development (FD) in the Town of Erin
Zoning By-law, permitting agricultural uses and single dwellings on an existing lot of
record. This zone designation is intended to reserve those lands intended for future

urban development, while allowing the existing uses to be maintained until the lands
are ready to be developed.
Accordingly, an amendment to the zoning by-law (Appendix III) is being requested to
rezone the lands to accommodate the proposed draft plan of subdivision, and bring it
into conformity with the provisions of the official plan. The following zones are
proposed, permitting a range of residential (with special provisions), commercial,
industrial, institutional and open space uses:

Four blocks are intended for lane-based street townhouses overlooking the
central square/park, which have a net site density of approximately 55 units per
hectare.
The two remaining blocks could accommodate 3 to 4-storey apartment type
forms, which would result in density ranging from 106 to 162 units per hectare.
As a result, the proposed amendment to the County Official Plan allows for townhouse
types at 55 units per hectare and apartment types at up to 165 units per hectare.
Providing these residential units at higher densities by including townhouses and lowrise apartments, also meets the goals of provincial policy for building compact
communities.
Parkland
The proposed development provides an abundance of parkland resources, including two
small parks fitted with play areas to serve the northern and eastern sections of the
community; a central square that will include a play area for the central section, and
provide a gathering space for the entire community; as well as a larger community park
with the ability to accommodate sports fields or a large track, serving the entire
community including the adjacent high school.
The parks have been strategically located within the concept plan so that they are easily
and readily accessible to as many residents as possible; being linked to each other

directly by the street network. The larger community park also provides a direct
connection to the adjacent high school, as well as the Elora-Cataract Trailway.
As it relates to the requirements under the Planning Act, the amount of parkland
provided within the proposed development far exceeds the calculated minimum
requirement, as illustrated in the table below:

Municipal Servicing
The increased densities will also allow for the efficient use of infrastructure such as
roads and full municipal services, which are proposed for the subject lands. The Town of
Erin has completed the first Phase of its Servicing and Settlement Master Plan (SSMP),
which aims to address the Towns servicing, planning and environmental issues over the
next 25 years. The background report identifies the need for the Town of Erin to
upgrade its services to include a municipal sewage services as a way to protect the
Towns ground water resources, as well as the Credit River Watershed. Together with
terminating the use of partial services this would implement the Towns Official Plan
policies, and bring it into conformity with the PPS.
______________________________________________________________________________________
PLANNING JUSTIFICATION REPORT
PART OF LOTS 16 & 17, CON 10, & PART OF LOT 16, CON 11
TOWN OF ERIN
Page 18
Reviewing the proposed development concurrent with the development of the SSMP
would also allow for a complete and coordinated review together with the Towns
projected growth. This consistent with Section 1.2.1 of the PPS, which encourages using
an integrated and comprehensive approach to planning for matters including
accommodating new growth and infrastructure.
Provincial, County and Town policies each dictate that urban development, such as that
on the subject lands, be serviced through centralized collection and treatment systems
rather than on individual septic tanks.
The proposed development plan and other planning instruments are based on the
assumption that full municipal services will be available concurrent with the
development of the lands.
The applicant is also committed to delivering fully serviced employment lands
concurrent with the first phase of residential development.
Currently, there are no communal sewage systems servicing communities in the Town
of Erin. The urban villages of Erin and Hillsburgh are serviced by individual private septic
systems. The proposed development is presented based on the future construction of a
centralized treatment system for the Village of Erin and a sanitary collection system that
will drain to the low point on the property. The Functional Servicing Report, prepared
by Schaeffers Consulting Engineers, recommends the construction of a sewage pumping
station near the stormwater management facility and an external forcemain or gravity
sewer that will be required to connect to a centralized collection facility. The location of
this facility will be determined by the Class Environmental Assessment (EA) process.
The applicant is willing to invest and commit to the implementation of a centrally
located modular sewage treatment plant, which is intended to service the proposed
development, and also make provision for a Septage Facility which will receive septage
from areas within the Town limits. The modular sewage treatment plant will be
expandable in order to meet the needs of future development and existing residents, as
deemed necessary by the Town.
Natural and Cultural Heritage
Protecting the existing woodlot, which is under the Core Greenlands designation, and
providing additional active open space areas will meet the Countys goals of ensuring
adequate parkland, open space, recreation opportunities to meet community needs, as
well as protecting and enhancing the natural environment. As concluded in the
Environmental Impact Statement, prepared by Dillon Consulting Ltd., appropriate
development limits will be established during the detailed review of the enclosed
applications. Additionally, a Stage 2 Archaeological Assessment is recommended to be
______________________________________________________________________________________
PLANNING JUSTIFICATION REPORT
PART OF LOTS 16 & 17, CON 10, & PART OF LOT 16, CON 11
TOWN OF ERIN
Page 19
completed, as per the submitted Stage 1 Report, which identifies the potential for
aboriginal archaeological resources.
A Heritage Impact Assessment has also been prepared to review the cultural heritage of
the subject lands, and concludes that the proposed development will have no impact to
the cultural history of the Village of Erin.
Socio-Economic Impact
The development concept proposes an abundance of new facilities and services in the
Village of Erin including parks, recreation facilities and a new high school, as well as a
variety of affordable housing options. The proposed development will also introduce
the opportunity to implement full municipal servicing for the Village of Erin; ultimately
providing a benefit to the overall health and well-being for its residents.
Given that the proposed development includes employment lands, both commercial
and industrial, it will also expand the job market in the Town of Erin and allow more
residents to live within a shorter distance of their place of work. It will also meet the
Economic Development goals of the Town of Erin Official Plan, by encouraging
industrial, commercial, and other non-residential growth (Section 3.15.2).
Furthermore, a Fiscal Impact Assessment has been prepared by the Altus Group and
accompanies this Planning Report in accordance with the requirements of both the
Town and County Official Plans. The report concludes that the proposed development
will generate an overall net fiscal benefit to both the Town of Erin and the County of
Wellington. In addition to expanding the tax base, the development of the subject lands
will also generate significant development charge revenues, which will cover the
associated capital costs for the required infrastructure improvements.
This would also demonstrate conformance with the Provincial Growth Plan (Section
3.2.5), which requires that municipalities should generate significant revenue to recover
the full cost of providing services, as well as serving growth that supports the
achievement of intensification and density targets.
Street and Urban Design
The proposed development was designed in a matter that provides a grid-type street
network, which promotes connectivity and the opportunity to utilize alternative modes
of transportation to the automobile, such as walking and cycling. This meets the goals
of the PPS and the Growth Plan by providing direct linkages to community amenities,
including the Elora-Cataract Trail, as well as an overall safe and efficient vehicular and
pedestrian system.
The street network will also incorporate various urban design principles, which increase
the attractiveness for residents to use alternative modes of transportation such as
