7 1.0 INTRODUCTION 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 AET Group Inc. (AET) respectfully submits the following proposed Terms of Reference (TOR) for preparation of an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) in support of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment, Official Plan Amendment for the property described as Part 1, Part 2 and Part 2 of Lot 11, Concession 8 (Geographic Township of Puslinch) City of Guelph, County of Wellington (Appendix A). The property currently supports a single residential home on approximately 3.35 hectares. The following Terms of Reference have been prepared according to the City of Guelph EIS Draft Guidelines (2014). 1.1 General Description of the Proposed Development It is envisioned that the community will be tied together by a great central street that will feature a pedestrian friendly streetscape. The central street will create a human scale streetscape with residential townhouse frontage on both sides of the street. The townhouse frontage will transition to larger residential buildings setback from the streetscape. The street will be the focus of the new community with the pedestrian environment tying the community together from east to west. A feature landscape will tie the site together from north to south. There will be a public plaza on the south side of the central street. It will have special landscape features such as paver s, outdoor seating, and pedestrian lighting. North of the central street the feature landscape will have the features of a landscape mews. The amenity building will be adjacent to the plaza connecting the community s amenities to the social life of the community. The larger residential buildings will be on the north side of the central street. These buildings will transition up in height away from the property line in height from townhouse style frontage along the central street to a ten storey podium and then to a fourteen storey tower, creating opportunities for roof terraces and private outdoor spaces. On the east side of the site there will be an environmental area that will incorporate walking trails and opportunities for outdoor group activities all within an irregularly-shaped property located northeast of Gordon Street, approximately 350m southeast of Clair Road. Conceptual maps of the development have been included in Appendix B. Storm Water Management for this site will be designed to give consideration to Low Impact Development (LID) that works with nature to manage storm water as close to its source as possible. The design will employ principles such as preserving and/or recreating natural landscape features, minimizing effective imperviousness to create functional and appealing site File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 1

There are scattered trees of small pockets of plantation. The southern property line is dominated by natural vegetation with a depression located adjacent to Gordon Street. The depression has been referred to as an unevaluated wetland. The regulated area of the Grand River Conservation Authority extends into the southern portion of the property from a portion of Halls Pond Provincially Significant Wetland to the south. Plans and policies relating to natural heritage that will be considered include the following: Provincial Policy Statement (2014); Wellington County Official Plan (1999); City of Guelph Official Plan (2001, consolidated September 2014); The policies and Schedules associated with OPA 42 were considered as approved and incorporated in the September 2014 Official Plan consolidation; and, Grand River Conservation Authority Policies for the Administration of the Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses Regulation Ontario Regulation 150/ BACKGROUND REVIEW A background review of the following sources will be completed: City of Guelph Official Plan (2001), consolidated 2014 Zoning By-Law (1995) (Appendix C) Natural Heritage Strategy: Terrestrial Inventory & Natural Heritage System (Dougan and Associates 2009) City of Guelph Trail Master Plan (2005) Map 4: Trail Network City of Guelph Private Tree By-law (2010) Provincial Policy Statement (MMAH 2014) Natural Heritage Reference Manual (OMNR 2005) Significant Wildlife Habitat Technical Guide (2000) Information Request with the MNRF regarding records of Species at Risk and status of onsite wetland (including possible complexing with the nearby PSW) File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 2

Two levels of investigation will be used to describe different features, including (i) secondary sources (compiling information from existing documents) and (ii) detailed field inventories as outlined below. The timing and level of investigation undertaken for different features have been explained and justified. This section will describe the historical and existing land uses of the study area. (Appendix D) File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 3

10 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October Physiography The following physical and hydrological features of the study area will be briefly described: Delineation of the wetland by an OWES certified evaluator and verified by GRCA and City of Guelph staff Topography Soil types by texture/grain size (e.g. clay, silt sand) and drainage characteristics Overburden and bedrock geology Areas of groundwater recharge and discharge Drainage pattern, basin boundaries and watercourses Areas of shallow soil Wetland analysis and hydrogeological characterization to investigate whether there are surficial or subsurface hydrological connections between the unit on site and the Halls Pond Provincially Significant Wetland. Contact with the MNRF has been completed and they stated that there are currently no Wetland Complexes identified. If and when the Halls Pond PSW Complex is determined the best location for continuous data loggers will be considered for the monitoring program. 3.2 Fauna Breeding Bird Survey Two breeding bird surveys shall be completed between May 25th and July 10th, 2016 following Forest Bird Monitoring Program protocols (Konze and McLaren 1997). These surveys will be completed in the morning between a half-hour before sunrise and 10:00 am during suitable weather conditions. The surveys include an area search throughout the subject property using Breeding Bird Atlas protocols, and representative point count survey stations. Breeding evidence will be evaluated using the following guidelines (Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas 2001): Possible breeding is indicated by the presence of a singing male (or breeding calls heard) in suitable habitat or the presence of a bird observed in suitable breeding habitat in its breeding season. Probable breeding is defined as an observation of any of the following: (1) a pair in breeding season in suitable habitat; (2) permanent territory presumed through registration of territorial song on at least two days a week or more apart, at the same place; or, (3) courtship or display between a male and a female or two males, including courtship feeding File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 4

11 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 or copulation; visiting probable nest site; agitated behaviour or anxiety calls of an adult; brood patch on an adult female or cloacal protuberance on an adult male; nest building or excavation of a nest hole. Confirmed breeding is defined as observation of any of the following: (1) a distraction display or injury feigning; (2) used nest or egg shell found (occupied or laid within the period of the study); (3) recently fledged young or downy young, including young incapable of sustained flight; (4) adults entering or leaving nest site in circumstances indicating occupied nest (e.g, adult carrying fecal sac, adult carrying food for young); or, (5) nest containing eggs, or nest with young seen or heard Calling Amphibian Survey Calling amphibian surveys shall be completed per the Marsh Monitoring Protocol (MMP) methodology (Bird Studies Canada, 2000). This study includes three surveys conducted at specific temperatures between five degrees Celsius and seventeen degrees Celsius. Calling level codes are assigned to aural detections of frogs and toad species within the 500m semi circular survey station Colonial Bird Nesting habitat Colonial Bird Nesting shall be completed per the Bird Studies Canada Marsh Monitoring Protocol (Bird Studies Canada, 2000). This will include two ten minute surveys between May 20 and July 5, Surveys will be conducted after 6 pm, and will utilize broadcast tapes, visual/aural detection of birds, as well as semi circular sample areas Bat Maternity Colonies Bat Maternity Study shall be completed per the Ministry of Natural Resources Bats and Bat Habitat: Guidelines for Wind Power Projects (MNR, 2011). This study will include a survey of the study area which will determine the density of snags/cavities appropriate for maternity colony roosts. Should the presence of roost trees be identified, exit surveys will be conducted in the month of June. These will include surveying each candidate roost tree for thirty minutes before dusk until sixty minutes after dusk Waterfowl Nesting Areas Ground surveys and pond observations shall be conducted during known waterfowl nesting periods within the study area (between April- May) Turtle Nesting Habitat Exposed sands and gravels shall be documented including tracks and activity during breeding season, File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 5

12 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 based on the Marsh Monitoring Protocol (MMP) methodology (Environment Canada 2003). This study will include visual assessments of basking areas in breeding seasons (spring or early fall) Marsh Bird Nesting Habitat Marsh Monitoring Bird Surveys shall be completed per the Bird Studies Canada Marsh Monitoring Protocol (Bird Studies Canada, 2000). This study will include two surveys between mid-may and early June, which will occur either in the morning or the evening. Each fifteen minute survey will be conducted in semi circular sampling stations, no closer than 250m apart, and will include the use of calling broadcasts and listening periods Terrestrial Crayfish Habitat Observations shall be recorded for crayfish chimneys in suitable habitat Incidental Wildlife Observations Incidental wildlife observations will be recorded. Where there is a potential for other wildlife habitat, such as snake refugia or hibernacula, targeted surveys will be completed following acceptable protocols. Where identified through the Significant Wildlife Habitat Screening Table, species specific surveys will be completed following acceptable protocols. 3.3 Vegetation and Ecological Land Classification (ELC) The vegetation communities will be characterized and mapped according to ELC protocols (Lee et al. 1998). A three season (spring, summer and fall) vegetation inventory is proposed including the investigation of soils using an auger. A tree inventory will be completed, as per the Draft City of Guelph s Tree Protection Policies and Guidelines, 2008 (COG, 2008). Removal of trees is anticipated as a result of the site proposal. 3.4 Fish Habitat The unevaluated wetland is located in the south west corner of the property approximately 5m from Gordon Street. Due to the fact there is no standing water during much of the year no assessment of aquatic habitat is proposed. 3.5 Ecological Connections, Linkages and Landscape Functions The natural heritage features on and off the subject property will be assessed at a landscape scale in order to evaluate potential linkage functions and evaluate ecological connections for wildlife movement. File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 6

13 3.6 Significant Wildlife Habitat 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 The significant wildlife habitat will be identified, mapped and evaluated as defined by the Natural Heritage Reference Manual (MNR 2010) based on criteria outlined by both the Significant Wildlife Habitat Technical Guide (MNR 2000) and/or the Significant Wildlife Habitat Schedule for Ecoregion 6E (MNR 2015) and the Official Plan, s6a.3 Natural Areas of the Natural Heritage System Policies. The potential presence of unrecorded species at risk will be assessed based on Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) screening methodology. The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry has been contacted regarding information pertaining to requirements under the Endangered Species Act and Species at Risk Act. Any sensitive endangered species information gained through field studies will be shared with the City of Guelph in a timely manner. The conservation status of listed species will be determined based on assessments by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC), the Committee on the Status of Species at Risk in Ontario (COSSARO) and the Provincial Natural Heritage Ranking System (S-Ranks). Local status will be defined by the City of Guelph s Natural Heritage Strategy Phase 2 Report.

19 3.7 Habitat for Significant Species 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 This section will evaluate and map all identified natural heritage features and areas, and associated ecological functions (in the study area, and in particularly on the subject property) and screen them against the in effect and applicable policies and guidelines to confirm whether or not they are considered significant in the City of Guelph. The City s Natural Heritage Strategy provides a list of locally significant species at a County or regional level and includes both flora and fauna. All significant species will be identified and form part of the analysis regarding habitat protection for these species. 4.0 DATA ANALYSIS The data obtained from the field investigations and review of background studies will be evaluated in order to determine sensitivity of features and functions. The criteria for determining significant features and functions (e.g. Significant Woodlands, Significant Wildlife Habitat, etc.) will be evaluated according to the following guiding documents, to ensure that legislative and policy requirements are being fulfilled: Natural Heritage Reference Manual Significant Wildlife Habitat Technical Guide Draft Significant Wildlife Habitat Ecoregion 6E Criterion Schedule City of Guelph Official Plan (consolidation September 2014) Section 6, Significant Natural Areas, outlines specific objectives, criteria for designation and policies for Significant Natural Areas and their buffers 4.1 Apply the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System The field data collected during our Natural Heritage Investigation will be used to determine scoring of the unevaluated wetland in the south west corner of the property. This scoring and assessment will then be provided to the Ministry of Natural Resources staff to determine if indeed the unevaluated wetland is provincially significant or a possible candidate for complexing with Halls Pond Provincially Significant Wetland. In addition it will be determined how the Grand River Conservation Authorities Wetland Policy applies to the unevaluated wetland. If the Halls Pond PSW Complex is determined, the best location for continuous data loggers will be considered for the monitoring program. File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 13

20 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October Identifying and Assessing the Impacts of the Proposal This section will identify and describe the significance of any adverse or positive environmental impacts of the subject property s proposed use. In particular, this section will: describe how the proposed development could affect the natural heritage features and functions of the subject property and adjacent natural heritage features and functions describe direct, indirect, induced, short-term, and long-term impacts with a particular emphasis on the following: o Tree/vegetation removal o Occupancy impacts resulting from increased use by people, including vegetation trampling, removal, litter, noise and additional invasive plant species 4.3 Avoiding Impacts and Evaluating Alternative Mitigation Measures Avoiding impacts and offering protection and buffers is preferred over mitigation. Our design approach will avoid impacts and protection measures will be recommended. Where adverse impacts are anticipated, a range of mitigation measures to reduce the magnitude or duration of the impact will be recommended. This section will also include the following: An analysis of setbacks that relate to the proposed land use and the abutting natural heritage features to be protected. A description of any proposed compensation or restoration plans for disturbed areas; A description of other mitigation or compensation measures proposed to eliminate, reduce or off-set impacts. The EIS will include consideration and evaluation of Low Impact Development (LID) alternatives Evaluation of Alternative Options Alternative options to avoid impacts will consider environmental constraints and sensitive habitats, seek to avoid impacts, then investigate protection measures. Compensation for impacts will be offered as an alternative option for consideration. This will be undertaken during discussions with review agencies and members of the project team to determine the most effective approach to protect/ maintain the NHS and fulfills the various planning, design and servicing requirements associated with the proposed development. File No.: TRI_NS1415_078 Page 14

21 5.0 POLICY REVIEW 188 Gordon Street, Guelph Environmental Impact Study Amended TOR October 2015 The relevant natural heritage provincial, regional, municipal and conservation authority policies and regulations will be reviewed. The proposed development plan will adhere to and respect the relevant natural heritage policies. The review will discuss the recommendations within the Hanlon Watershed Study and will compare the recommendations of EIS with the Hanlon Watershed Study Recommendations. 6.0 MONITORING Where appropriate, the EIS will include recommendations for long term management, conservation, enhancement, and/or the monitoring of significant environmental features and/or functions within the subject property and/or adjacent lands. The scope of any proposed monitoring plan and types of monitoring being proposed will be determined through assessment of features and ecological functions, sensitivity of features, and impacts resulting from the proposed development. If a complex with the Halls Pond PSW has been determined, the best location for continuous data loggers will be considered for the monitoring program. 7.0 RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS This section of the EIS will address sub-sections ix and x of Section 6A.7.2 of the City of Guelph s Official Plan as revised by OPA 42. Specifically, the potential negative impacts associated with the proposed development will be summarized and the recommended measures to avoid or mitigate these impacts. Enhancements may also be suggested. Recommendations will be as specific as possible, and may include; a modification of the concept plan; a construction requirement or constraint; a requirement for appropriate buffers/setbacks or other environmental protection measures; and; an integral component of detailed designs or site plans, such as; o erosion and sediment control plan o restoration/enhancement measures o low impact development alternatives If appropriate, the EIS will also include recommendations for short and/or long-term monitoring to identify any negative impacts and inform the implementation of remedial measures.
