SUBJECT OPPORTUNITIES ASSESSMENT OF CITY-OWNED GREATER NANAIMO WATER DISTRICT LANDS
OVERVIEW
Purpose of ReportTo present Council with an opportunities assessment of the City-owned Greater Nanaimo Water District lands, with a focus on portions of the property that could be considered for park and non-park uses.
DISCUSSION
At the 2016-SEPT-26 Special Open Council meeting, a Staff report was presented to Council containing information on the existing archaeological and environmental features of 801, 1150 and 1151 Nanaimo Lakes Road. These lands are often referred to as the Greater Nanaimo Water District (GNWD) lands and total 84ha (208ac in size).
Council motioned to direct Staff to undertake an opportunities assessment on the property to identify portions of the lands that could be considered for park and non-park uses.
Attachment A identifies the environmental features of the property. This includes the environmentally sensitive areas identified in the previous Staff report, the archaeological features, a buffer for riparian areas, the 30, Parkway setback and those lands with a slope greater than 30%. These lands have high park values and would support retention in their natural state.
Attachment B illustrates the existing trail network, users of the site, and legal rights-of-way.Many of these lands have been disturbed and have low park values.
Attachment C identifies that 52ha (128ac) of land has park values. Four areas are identified that could be considered for non-park uses, totalling 32ha (79ac) of land. Area 1 contains the former GNWD offices. Area 2 and 3 are currently forested and contain walking trails. Area 4 contains the City’s animal shelter and forest.
Currently, the GNWD lands have limited development potential due to their location outside the Urban Containment Boundary and their Official Community Plan (OCP) designation as 'Resource Protection’. The lands are zoned Agricultural Rural Residential (AR2) which limits lot sizes to 1 ha (2.5ac) in size and does not support the provision of City water or sewer. Going forward, if there is a desire to explore non-park uses, more detailed analysis should be done on servicing costs and an amendment to the OCP and Zoning Bylaw could be brought forward to Council for consideration.
