    That the Economic and Development Services Committee recommend to City Council:

    Whereas, Plan 167, a registered plan of subdivision in the City of Oshawa was registered in February of 1913 with the street names Park Avenue, Lakeview Avenue, Birch Avenue, and Russell Avenue, amongst others; and,

    Whereas, following the conclusion of the Second World War and the construction of Highway 401, several streets were closed and other streets were renamed in honour of Second World War battles such as Normandy, Dunkirk and Dieppe; and,

    Whereas, there is a street named Ortono Avenue located south of Highway 401 and west of Wilson Road South; and,

    Whereas, on March 9, 2023, the Ontario Regiment Museum submitted correspondence to the City (see Attachment 1) advising that the street name of Ortono was incorrect and should be spelt Ortona in reference to the Battle of Ortona; and,

    Whereas, there are fifteen (15) dwellings on Ortono Avenue; and,

    Whereas, reviewing a potential street name change would involve consulting with the existing residents on Ortono Avenue to obtain their comments on the possible renaming of their street and advising them of the process to change a street name and of the Council policy to provide an ex-gratia payment to offset personal costs to change their address;

    Therefore, be it resolved that the Economic and Development Services Department be authorized to initiate a consultation process with the residents of Ortono Avenue and the Ontario Regiment Museum regarding the potential street name change and report back to the Economic and Development Services Committee on the results of that consultation.

  • Recommendation

    That the Economic and Development Services Committee recommend to City Council:

    Whereas, the dwelling located at 195 Simcoe Street North, known as the Robert McLaughlin House, is a “listed, non-designated” property on the City’s Register of Properties of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest under Section 27 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter O.18 (the “Heritage Act”) but is not currently designated; and,  

    Whereas, on February 2, 2021, Nantuck Investments Inc. (the “Owner”) submitted to City staff notice of their intention to demolish the Robert McLaughlin House; and,  

    Whereas, on March 15, 2021, the then Development Services Committee considered Heritage Oshawa’s recommendation to designate the Robert McLaughlin House, and recommended to City Council that the property be designated, and that staff be directed to investigate with the Owner any possible opportunities for the adaptive reuse of the property; and,

    Whereas, on March 29, 2021, City Council directed staff to undertake, among other matters, the process to designate the Robert McLaughlin House as a property of cultural heritage value or interest under the Heritage Act; and,

    Whereas, on April 1, 2021, staff issued notice of the City’s intention to designate the Robert McLaughlin House, advising that any person may, on or before May 3, 2021, file a Notice of Objection to the proposed designation; and,

    Whereas, a Notice of Objection dated April 30, 2021 was received from the Owner with respect to the proposed designation, which was subsequently referred by City staff to the then Conservation Review Board for a hearing and recommendation to City Council concerning the designation; and,

    Whereas, the Conservation Review Board has now been amalgamated with other various tribunals as the Ontario Land Tribunal; and,

    Whereas, the appeal process remains ongoing, and a hearing date has not been scheduled by the Ontario Land Tribunal; and,

    Whereas on March 16, 2023, the Owner submitted an application under Section 34 of the Heritage Act requesting to demolish a portion of the Robert McLaughlin House and construct an addition to the rear of the remaining portion of the dwelling, in order to facilitate the adaptive reuse of the building for two commercial units and six residential apartment units (see Attachment 1); and, 

    Whereas, under the Heritage Act, Council has until May 15, 2023 to deem the application either complete or incomplete and give notice to the Owner, and if Council fails to issue such a notice, the application is deemed complete; and,

    Whereas, under the Heritage Act, after deeming the application complete, Council would have 90 days to deny, approve or approve with conditions the application to demolish; and,

    Whereas, under the Heritage Act, Council must consult with Heritage Oshawa within the aforementioned 90 day period, prior to making a decision on the application; and,

    Whereas, Economic and Development Services staff consider Attachment 1 to contain sufficient information for Council to make a decision under the Heritage Act; and,

    Whereas, Council’s decision on the application does not preclude Council’s position on the designation of the property, a matter which remains under consideration at the Ontario Land Tribunal;

    Therefore, be it resolved: 

    1. That, pursuant to Item ED-23-63, City Council deem the application submitted by Nantuck Investments Inc. under Section 34 of the Ontario Heritage Act concerning 195 Simcoe Street North, to be a complete application; and,

  • Recommendation

    That the Economic and Development Services Committee recommend to City Council:

    Whereas, Section 28 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.0.18 (the “Act”), provides that the council of any municipality may, by by-law, establish a municipal heritage committee, with a minimum of five members, to advise and assist the council on matters of cultural heritage value and interest including the designation of heritage properties and heritage conservation districts under Parts IV and V of the Act, and such other heritage matters as the Council may specify by by-law; and,

    Whereas, City Council established a municipal heritage committee pursuant to the Act through By-law 59-95, styled as Heritage Oshawa; and,

    Whereas, By-law 59-95 was subsequently repealed and replaced with By-law 29-2006, which in turn was later repealed and replaced with By-law 02-2011; and,

    Whereas, in addition to reaffirming the establishment of Heritage Oshawa as the City’s Municipal Heritage Committee, By-law 02-2011 includes various provisions setting out operating procedures for the Committee; and,

    Whereas, subsequent to passing By-law 02-2011 in 2011, City Council has since adopted the Advisory Committees of Council Policy and Procedure (the “Policy”) which sets out provisions for the operation of all Advisory Committees of Council, including Heritage Oshawa, and requires each Advisory Committee to have a Council-approved Terms of Reference; and,

    Whereas, the Policy and Terms of Reference documents are reviewed during each term of Council to ensure they remain up to date and accurate based on current legislation and other Council by-laws or policies; and,

    Whereas, the operating procedures set out in By-law 02-2011 are now addressed in the Advisory Committees of Council Policy and Procedure and/or its approved Terms of Reference;

    Therefore be it resolved: 

    1. That City Council reaffirms the establishment of Heritage Oshawa as a Municipal Heritage Committee pursuant to the Ontario Heritage Act; and,
    2. That Heritage Oshawa is an Advisory Committee of Council and will operate under the Advisory Committees of Council Policy and Procedure and Committee Terms of Reference as may be amended by Council; and,
    3. That By-law 02-2011 be repealed and replaced with a by-law generally in the form and content as set out in Attachment 1 to Item ED-23-80.
  • Recommendation

    That the Economic and Development Services Committee recommend to City Council:

    Whereas, the City of Oshawa is the approval authority for applications for plans of condominium in Oshawa; and,

    Whereas, Ontario Regulation 544/06 under the Planning Act was approved in 2006 to provide regulations for processing applications for plans of subdivision and plans of condominium; and,

    Whereas, prior to July 1, 2016, Ontario Regulation 544/06 stipulated that for applications for common element condominiums and vacant land condominiums, the approval authority must issue a notice of application if a complete application is received and must hold a public meeting in a prescribed manner; and,

    Whereas, on July 1, 2016 the Province of Ontario passed Ontario Regulation 178/16 which had the effect, in part, of amending Ontario Regulation 544/06 such that for applications for common element condominiums, the approval authority is not required to issue a notice of application for a complete application or hold a public meeting; and,

    Whereas, Item 56 of the City’s Delegation By-law 29-2009, as amended, delegates the approval of condominium applications that do not require a public meeting under the Condominium Act or under Council policy to the Commissioner, Economic and Development Services Department or the Director of Planning Services; and,

    Whereas, the delegation is subject to the proposed plan of condominium being consistent with the approved site plan and zoning; and,

    Whereas, in accordance with Item 56 of the City’s Delegation By-law 29-2009, as amended, the City does not issue notices of applications or hold public meetings for proposed standard condominiums or phased condominiums; and,  

    Whereas, the Condominium Act and the regulations under the Condominium Act do not require a public meeting for an application for a plan of condominium submitted to an approval authority under the Planning Act; and,

    Whereas, although the City does not have a policy requiring public meetings for common element condominiums, since July 1, 2016 the City of Oshawa has continued to issue notices of application and hold public meetings for applications for common element condominiums; and,  

    Whereas, a condominium is not a form of development but is rather a type of tenure of a property, and it does not create development or land use permissions for a property; and,

    Whereas, removing the requirement for notice of application and holding a public meeting for common elements condominiums will further enhance the City’s development application processing and make efficient use of Economic and Development Services staff resources; and,

    Whereas, it is appropriate to continue to issue notice of application and hold a public meeting for any application for common element condominium that proposes to convert an existing rental property to condominium tenure;

    Therefore be it resolved: 

    1. That, pursuant to Item ED-23-81, Schedule “A” to Delegation By-law 29-2009, as amended, be further amended by adding to Item 56 the text “, Planning Act” after the text “Condominium Act” under the heading “Delegated Authority”, and the appropriate amending by-law be passed; and,
    2. That it is a policy of Oshawa City Council that applications for common elements condominiums do not require a public meeting and do not require a notice of application unless said application proposes to convert an existing rental property to condominium tenure.
