City Council Agenda January 12, 2015 / Page 1 File No.:8240-8

2 Council Direction Both the IDP and MDP require a public hearing; the MDP requires referral to the Capital Region Board (CRB). Once there is a decision from the CRB, Council s decision as per the requirements in the Municipal Government Act (MGA) can occur. Policies 17.1 and 17.3 in the Municipal Development Plan require conformance of the MDP with both the IDP and Area Structure Plans (ASPs). Background and Discussion ISL Engineering and Land Services on behalf of Landrex submitted applications to amend the IDP and MDP for the King of Kings Lutheran Church site located at the corner of St. Albert Trail and Coal Mine Road. If approved, the applicant will need to come forward with further applications for amendments to the Erin Ridge North Area Structure Plan (ASP) and the Land Use Bylaw (LUB). The applications are being made to facilitate proposed development on the site and are required to ensure the IDP, MDP, ASP, and LUB are consistent. The size of the overall site is 9.12 hectares± (22.54 acres±). The municipal address is 2, Range Road 253, and the legal description is Plan , Lot C. The landowner is Lutheran Church-Canada, the Alberta-British Columbia District. They are in the process of selling the majority of their land to Landrex for development (Attachment 3, Location Map). The Church proposes to keep their building in the current location with sufficient parking. Landrex would like to develop the site with commercial adjacent to St. Albert Trail and residential for the remainder of the site. Therefore, the church site would be incorporated into the overall development. The amendments are to change the land use designation from institutional to commercial and residential. A portion of the Frontier Honda site at 875 St. Albert Trail has institutional land use designation; therefore, the map changes in the IDP and MDP will also cover this area to be commercial land use designation (Attachment 4, Aerial Map). Bylaw 10/2015 Intermunicipal Development Plan (IDP) Amendment Sturgeon County repealed the Intermunicipal Development Plan through Bylaw 1220/10; however, the City of St. Albert retained Bylaw 7/2001. Map 4 and Map 10 of the IDP designate the church and Frontier Honda as institutional. The amendment changes the designation for the church site from institutional to corridor commercial and urban residential land use designations. The Frontier Honda site will change to corridor commercial. No other changes are required to the IDP document. City Council Agenda January 12, 2015 / Page 2 File No.:8240-8

3 Policy 2.8 of the IDP, Public and Institutional Uses, indicates that institutional uses be easily accessible to mitigate negative impacts on adjacent land uses in terms of increased traffic and parking. Potential parking and access impacts have been raised with the Church and Landrex, and the parcel size retained for the church site needs to have sufficient parking and be easily accessible. Bylaw 11/2015 Municipal Development Plan (MDP) Amendment Map 2 of the MDP designates the church site as institutional. The proposed change is from institutional to commercial and residential land use designations. The area of commercial is approximately 3.57 hectares± (8.8 acres±) or 39% of the site, and the residential is 5.53 hectares± (13.67 acres±) or 61% of the site. These areas do not account for roads or the stormwater management facility needed to support the development (Attachment 5, Land Portions). Policy 14.3 of the MDP, Places of Religious Assembly, identifies that religious assembly should be located, where possible, on corner sites along collector roadways and arterial roadways. The church site, when the area is developed, will not be a corner lot. Landrex has been advised that the church site will require legal and physical access to the site from either Coal Mine Road or Ebony Way extension, and not through the parking lot of the commercial site. Small church sites are not shown in the IDP or the MDP. The church site will be within the IDP s corridor commercial land use designation and within the MDP commercial land use designation. Stakeholder Communications or Engagement The circulation of the proposed amendments was to internal departments, external referral agencies, and residents within 100-metre radius. Comments received from the circulation have been provided to the applicant (Attachment 6, Summary of the Circulation Comments). In accordance with the MGA, the Public Hearing was advertised on December 27, 2014 and January 3, 2015, in the St. Albert Gazette. Implications of Recommendation(s) a) Financial: None at this time. b) Legal / Risk: None at this time. c) Program or Service: None at this time.

4 d) Organizational: None at this time. Alternatives and Implications Considered If Council does not wish to support the recommendation, then redevelopment of the majority of the church site will be limited to institutional uses. If Council wishes different land use designations or portions of land use designations, then Administration will need clarification from Council regarding what they would support for a change in land use designations.

14 SUMMARY OF CIRUCLATION COMMENTS RECEIVED FOR IDP AND MDP AMENDMENTS FOR THE KING OF KINGS CHURCH SITE IN ERIN RIDGE NORTH ATTACHMENT 6 City Considered commercial land use west of the future Ebony Way extension. Legal and physical access to the church site and ensure sufficient parking. Church integration into the commercial site is needed, may have parking conflicts. Concerned with the proposed closure of Coal Mine Road and the impacts on the Erin Ridge neighbourhood. Ebony Way extension and Element Drive North are proposed transit corridors and need to be built to collector roadway standards. Bus pads within or abutting the subject areas are to be provided by the developer at their expense and in accordance with the City of St. Albert s engineering specification. Chamber of Commerce The amount of commercial should be equal in depth as shown on the MDP, Map 2 for the north portion of the City. This means for the length of St. Albert Trail and everything west of Ebony Way extension, less the church site, should be commercial. Resident If Coal Mine Road is closed, concerned with truck traffic on Erin Ridge Drive. Already fought verbal battle with the City over the school on Eldorado Drive and lost that battle. Now we are going to be exposed to more dirt, dust, and noise for a new development. FortisAlberta No objections to the proposal and no easement requirements. Contact FortisAlberta regarding the installation of new electrical services. ATCO Gas No objections, provided contact information, timelines for service, and regulations for construction. ATCO Pipelines No objections. TELUS No objections.
