Figure 1 - Historical Revenue Distribution

Although total program revenues are projected to slightly decrease in 2013, renewed efforts in terms of sponsorship, membership, and fee-for-service activities, along with other business development efforts lead us to believe that both self-generated and total revenue bases can be expected to increase over the next few years to $0.43 M : $1.7 M (Figure 2).

© 2014, Toronto and Region Conservation Authority and the Corporation of the Town of Caledon. All Rights Reserved. The preparation of this eco-business zone planning & development guide was carried out with assistance from the Green Municipal Fund, a Fund financed by the Government of Canada and administered by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities. Notwithstanding this support, the views expressed are the personal views of the authors, and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and the Government of Canada accept no responsibility for them.

Cover photos: Upper left (Credit: Light House) - TaigaNova Eco-Industrial Park stormwater management pond, AB

Center (Credit: SAB Magazine) - Schlüter Systems Canada Headquarters at Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, QC, is a 6100 m2 building that includes office space, a studio showroom, training facilities and a product warehouse. The design emphasizes occupant comfort, energy efficiency, flexibility, longevity and ease of maintenance. The performance of this showcase building:

• Energy Intensity (building and process energy) = 404.82 MJ/m2/year• Locally Sourced Material (by value) = 31%• Recycled materials in new construction (by value) = 22%• Potable Water consumption (building and process) = 400 Litre/occupant/year• Municipal Water consumption savings relative to model building = 50%

A GUIDE TO ECO-BUSINESS ZONE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT

Section 1: Overview

1.1 Purpose

The Town of Caledon has taken a strong stance on its identity as the “Greenest Town in Ontario”. To maintain that reputation and building on other sustainability efforts, the Town and TRCA have partnered to create A Guide to Eco-Business Zone Planning & Development. This Guide provides staff guidance on the planning, design and subsequent development of eco-business zones in new employment areas.

The guide has been produced within the planning context of the Ontario Planning Act, Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) 2005, Region of Peel Official Plan and the Town of Caledon Official Plan. Aligned with the Town’s key strategic plans (i.e. Community-Based Strategic Plan, Community Climate Change Plan, Economic Development Strategy) the Guide incorporates regional and international best practices and innovative approaches to support eco-business zone development.

The purpose of this guide is to provide staff guidance on the planning, design and subsequent development of eco-business zones throughout the Town of Caledon.

A GUIDE TO ECO-BUSINESS ZONE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT 1

1.2 Why Eco-Business Zones?

Eco-business zones are areas of employment and/or industrial activity that promote environmental quality, economic vitality and social benefits through the continuum of planning, design, construction, long-term operations and deconstruction. The Eco-business zone concept establishes a balance between social, economic and environmental objectives, which are clearly established at the forefront of the process and which can lead to the following benefits:

Economic Social/Cultural Environmental

Attract progressive development

More resilient employment areas

o More diverse employment base

o Attracting high performing businesses

Infrastructure and operational savings

Better integration of industrial lands into the Town fabric for greater community benefit

Enhance the culture of conservation

Building a collaborative business community

Improved sense of identity through better building and public realm design

Meaningful environmental impact

Demonstrate environmental leadership

Resiliency to climate change

E.g. Innovista Eco-Industrial Park, Hinton, AB reduced the width of paved area for internal roads and highway access,

reducing land used for roads by 25%.

E.g. Partners in Project Green actively engages over 900 businesses every year to form a community built on collaboration to achieve sustainability objectives.

E.g. TaigaNova Eco-Industrial Park, Fort McMurray, AB – buildings are required to be 25% more efficient than model national energy code

1.3 Moving Forward

Embracing the principles of eco-business development is the first step towards the emergence of more responsible, more resilient employment lands. In order to realize its vision, the Town will need to take measures to integrate the guide’s tenets into the organization, and complete a number of necessary steps.

MEASURES TO INTEGRATE GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Empower Town staff to implement the present Eco-Business planning & development guide

Build internal capacity in the form of training and resource allocation

Require the Eco-Business planning & development guide to be referenced in future employment land planning policy development

NEXT STEPS

Form an Integrated Design Process (IDP) team and identify champions and functional lead(s)

Provide training to IDP team on the integrated design process and eco-business principles

Formalize Town’s process* i.e., to align future Secondary Plans with employment land components with this guide

Explore the need for mechanisms & tools to support those principles that the Town deems to be most important and applicable across its jurisdiction (e.g. marketing materials, incentives, etc.)

Identify eco-business development opportunities to pursue

*Process will differ based on the Town’s role in any given project.

1.4 How to Use This Guide This document is intended to provide conceptual design and planning guidance for staff at the Town of Caledon, the Region of Peel, CVC, and TRCA. Using Coleraine Drive West employment area as a case study (See Section 7) and other case studies this document provides and illustrates guiding principles and performance objectives that can be used to achieve higher levels of sustainable performance.

It may be used to inform the development of official plan policies, subdivision planning principles, infrastructure design, parcel design and Zoning by-law regulations for proposed employment lands.

The document is divided into 8 sections addressing the following topics:

Section 2 What is an Eco-Business Zone? Guiding principles and examples.

Section 3 The Integrated Design Process What is it and how to form the team?

Section 4 Eco-Business Zone Subdivision Planning

Land use, subdivision layout, access, movement, open space and stormwater management frameworks.

Section 5 Eco-Business Zone Infrastructure Design

Land use, overall infrastructure layout, transportation, access, movement, open space, landscape and stormwater management frameworks, water & wastewater, energy systems and materials use & management.

Section 6 Eco-Business Zone Parcel Development Parcel use, site layout, built form and character, transportation, access, movement, private open space, landscape and stormwater management frameworks, water & waste water, energy systems and materials use & management.

Section 7 Case study: Coleraine Drive West Hypothetical Eco-Business Zone and triple bottom line evaluation.

Section 8 Implementation Tools Zoning and incentives.

Each section is illustrated and has additional resources and information.

The Guide is built around the planning process and is grounded in an integrated design approach. Although all sections are inter-related, the document is structured so the reader can quickly reference one section based on their interest and role.
