Staff Report to Council Application No.: 7922-0207-00 Planning & Development Report Page 8 DEVELOPMENT PERMITS Hazard Lands (Steep Slope) Development Permit Requirement • The subject property falls within the Hazard Lands (Steep Slope) Development Permit Area (DPA) in the OCP, given that the site contains steep slopes in excess of 20% gradient. The Hazard Land (Steep Slope) Development Permit is required to protect developments from hazardous conditions. • The subject property exhibits a gentle sloping terrain with an elevation difference from 30 to 37-metres across the southeast to the northwest tip of the property. Overall, the subject property follows a gently sloping terrain of 7 degrees for about 21 linear meters measured from the road frontage. Thereafter, the sloping terrain becomes more steepened with a slope angle of 25 degrees. There is a retaining wall along the north property line. • A geotechnical report, prepared by Qiyan (Rick) Jiang, P. Eng., of Tetron Engineering Ltd and dated July 20, 2023, was reviewed by staff and found to be generally acceptable to proceed. The report was reviewed by staff and found to generally conform to the OCP Development Permit guidelines for Hazard Lands. The applicant will be required to submit a peer review of the Geotechnical Report, with the potential for some modification of the content of the report still required (subject to the findings of the peer reviewer). The finalized geotechnical report will be incorporated into the Development Permit. • The geotechnical report investigated issues related to slope stability and storm water drainage to determine the feasibility of redeveloping the site. Thereafter, the report proposes recommendations to ensure the ongoing stability of the slope. • The consultant has determined that the development is feasible provided that the recommendations in their report are incorporated into the overall design of the site, including a rear geotechnical setback of 7.5-metres. No rock pit, shed, in-ground pool, hot tub, sprinkler system, nor material stockpiles are permitted within the geotechnical setback zone. No grading or slope disturbance is permitted. The final site grading shall prevent concentrated storm water from entering the natural slope. • Registration of a Section 219 Restrictive Covenant that requires the owner to develop the site in accordance with the conditions in the geotechnical report is required as a condition of final adoption. • At Building Permit stage, the Building Division will require Letters of Assurance from a geotechnical engineer to ensure that the building plans comply with the recommendations in the approved geotechnical report.
