1 NEW REGIONAL OFFICIAL PLAN HIGH LEVEL PROCESS & FRAMEWORK
2 Why A New Official Plan Originally the role of Regionally Planning and content of Regional Official Plan (1970s) primarily focused on protecting agricultural lands and establishing urban (settlement area) boundaries. Over the years, amendments have been made to this outdated platform (Plan) to reflect the Region s increased planning functions under an evolving provincial planning system. Now an opportunity to ensure that it remains current with changes to Provincial plans and policies, and reflects and supports the strategic goals and priorities of the community and Regional Council in a comprehensive manner.
3 Initiation Late 2016, the Region allocated staff resources and budget to complete the Regional Official Plan over the next 5 years. A Special Meeting of Council will be held on July 5 th, 2018 to hear how the public visions Niagara growing and developing till In the meantime, the Region, with the input of Area Planners, has been framing required priority background studies (required work) to inform the new Official Plan.
4 Preliminary Objectives Promote and achieve great development outcomes that contribute to complete community solutions and a quality urban experience. Facilitate opportunities for economic growth. Protect Regional Natural and Agricultural Resources and adequately respond to the challenges of Climate Change Provide clear policy direction where necessary and discretion where appropriate. Address Provincial requirements, Regional mandate matters and provide guidance to LAMs. The New Official Plan will be processed under Section 26 of the Planning Act

7 Priority Background Studies Growth Management Program Natural Systems and Resources Program Land Budget Employment Lands Strategy Agriculture Natural Environment Urban Structure Housing Strategy Aggregate Resources Climate Change
8 Growth Management Program Goal- Completion Q Land Budget Employment Lands Strategy Urban Structure Housing Strategy
9 Land Needs Assessment The amount of developable urban land needed for residential and employment purposes to 2041 Identify any excess lands. (not developable by 2041) Excess lands will need to be designated for development post 2041 Alternative greenfield density targets to the required 80 people and jobs per hectare can be requested to the Province Opportunity to rationalize urban area boundaries and ensure that sufficient lands are in the proper location to accommodate growth. Urban area boundary expansions can take place, even if there are excess lands, provided there is a de-designation of lands.
10 Employment Lands Strategy Ensure sufficient and marketable supply for traditional industrial employment Identify Regional Employment Areas - areas of business and economic activity for long term employment development which are to be protected from conversion The Region is currently working with the local municipalities, specifically area planners at this stage. This project will be informed by the Region s annual Employment Inventory.
11 Urban Structure The urban structure is a significant component for the Region to achieve an eventual 60% intensification rate under the Growth Plan while protecting established neighbourhoods. Identify a hierarchy of settlement areas Identify important strategic regional intensification areas to direct growth to areas best served by a combination of transportation/transit, public works and community infrastructure and services Assign population and density accordingly
12 Draft Urban Structure Major Components For Intensification Areas Downtown St. Catharines Urban Growth Centre (UGC) The Downtown St. Catharines Urban Growth Centre is the Region s main mixed use node with the highest densities and broadest range of uses. The Downtown St. Catharines UGC, whose boundaries are defined, has a minimum density target of 150 residents and jobs combined per hectare by 2031 or earlier. Downtown Niagara Falls and Downtown Welland Emerging Urban Centres Downtown Niagara Falls (incorporating the Niagara Falls GO Major Transit Station Area) and Downtown Welland Emerging Urban Centres are regional focal points that have potential for accommodating population and employment growth. These two emerging urban centres, in the horizon of the Regional Plan (2041), will grow to become as close as possible to become vibrant and dense, transit supportive urban cores. Major GO Transit Station Areas With the pending arrival of GO Rail service, the Region in co-operation with the municipalities of Grimsby, Lincoln, St. Catharines and Niagara Falls through secondary plans, are creating vibrant and dense mixed use nodes around the major transit station areas. The proposed urban structure would recognize this work. Other Regional Growth Areas Other Regional Growth Areas span multiple jurisdictions that have the potential to become iconic in nature and have the potential to attract new investment, people, jobs and development. The District Plan process is a key process for identifying these significant Regional areas. Regional Corridors Regional corridors are the multi-modal linkages that connect Strategic Growth Areas and urban areas across Niagara. The design of Regional Corridors will complement and benefit the landscape they travel through. It is envisioned that lands along Regional Corridors will be intensified with denser forms of higher residential development. The delineation of Regional corridors is still being discussed with local planners. Local Centres & Local Corridors Local centres and corridors are strategic areas of growth and investment for the local municipality such as the downtown cores or key mixed use areas.
13 Housing Strategy Promote an appropriate range and mix of housing forms Promote choice, aging in place opportunities and affordability Set affordable ownership and rental housing targets Identify tools to support affordable housing Align with Housing and Homelessness Action Plan Support complete communities
14 Rural and Natural Systems Management Program Framework completions- Q Agriculture Natural Environment Aggregate Resources Climate Change
15 Agriculture Framework Recognize agriculture is a primary driver of the regional economy Protect the unique land Update specific policy, such as agricultural- related and on-farm diversified uses. Consider Area Planners concerns regarding: viability of certain agricultural lands refinements to Province s agricultural system mapping how wineries are addressed in NEP and Province s Permitted Uses Guidelines importance of Agricultural Impact Assessment importance of compatibility between the Regional Natural Heritage System and Agricultural System concerns about use of greenhouses for cannabis
16 Natural Environment & Water Systems Planning Will be a significant component of the new ROP to meet Provincial policy direction It is recognized that accurate mapping and appropriate methods to interpret and update mapping is critical and is planned to be discussed early. Establish criteria and identify features for provincial compliance (ex. woodlands). Develop watershed planning policy framework Specific topics for consideration offsetting, shorelines, watercourse mapping Education is a priority component of the engagement process
17 Aggregate resources are located throughout the region. Aggregate Resources Extraction of the resource is necessary - a need to address land use compatibility State of Aggregates in Niagara Region: Background Report was brought to Committee and Council in 2016 A Technical addendum has just been completed to supplement the Background Report as a result of changes to Provincial Plans, Aggregate Resources Act, and Bill 139 Draft policies will be presented to the TAG, planning advisory committee, industry stakeholders, Provincial ministries, and public
18 Climate Change Opportunities for climate change adaption and mitigation A climate change study will assess obligations and options on the region s role relative to GHG targets. Optional GHG Inventory, Targets and Strategies Complete Communities Infrastructure Waste Natural Environment and Agriculture Climate Change Transportation Water Natural Hazards Energy 18
19 Engagement Process Considerations Engagement of Indigenous Peoples early Carry forward essential information and direction Clear understanding that one policy decision impacts another Opportunities for Council members feel involved Consideration and identification of the Regional mandate Broad based and personal consultation Provide strategic facilitation where necessary
20 Moving Forward Comply With Planning Act Requirements - Special Council Meeting & Open Houses Provide for broad consultation in the development of Background Studies and Official Plan Policy Sections Present to Local Council s to highlight approach and invite involvement Use Imagine Niagara to theme public topics, visioning and engagement Complete ROP in Sections for endorsement and consolidate endorsed sections for Council adoption Complete by 2021
