PART I — THE PREAMBLE
1. Introduction
This part of the Official Plan Amendment No. 10 (the "Amendment"), entitled Part I —
The Preamble, explains the purpose and location of this Amendment, and provides
an overview of the reasons for it. It is for explanatory purposes only and does not
form part of the Amendment.
2. Purpose of the Amendment
The purpose of this Amendment is to change the land use designation from
"Business Park" to "Business Park — Site Specific Policy No. 42". The provision of
this Amendment will allow retail sales and service commercial uses without being
part of or internal to a hotel, motel or office building.
3. Location
The lands affected by this Amendment are located north of Wellington Street East,
east of Leslie Street, municipally known as 15255 Leslie Street and 1540 Wellington
Street East; having a lot area of approximately 0.46 hectares (1.13 acres); and are
legally described as Part Lot 21 Concession 3 (Whitchurch), Town of Aurora,
Regional Municipality of York (the "Subject Lands").
4. Basis of the Amendment
The basis of the Amendment is as follows:
4.1 The Official Plan Amendment application (file: OPA-2015-06) and Zoning By-
law amendment was submitted to the Town for consideration in December,
2015 to permit the development of retail sales and service commercial uses
without being part of or internal to a hotel, motel or office building within the
Business Park land use designation on the Subject Lands, together with a
related amendment to the Town's Zoning By-law.
4.2 A Public Planning Meeting was held by the Town's Council on February 24,
2016 to obtain input from members of the public and the Town's Council.
4.3 The Business Park designation permits an integrated mix of employment
activities and businesses including business and professional offices. The list
of permitted uses will continue to apply in addition to stand-alone service
commercial uses on the Subject Lands as a result of this Amendment.
4.4 Due to the locational context of the Subject Lands being a smaller lot fronting
on two (2) major Regional arterial roads surrounded by Regional Commercial
Centre to the north and east, it is not feasible for the Subject Lands to
develop as a business park development and fully comply with all
development policies of the Business Park designation built -form standards.
4.5 The implementing Zoning By-law amendment will incorporate appropriate
development provisions and performance standards for the development of
the Subject Lands.
4.6 Appropriate development of the Subject Lands for service commercial uses
can be achieved through the detailed review and urban design evaluation of
the Town's Site Plan control process. An approved site plan agreement for a
multi -tenant commercial building on the Subject Lands (SP-2013-02) was
executed on May 13, 2014. The site plan agreement will continue to apply as
a result of this Amendment.

4.7 The Business Park designation policies as outlined in the Details of The
Amendment are compatible with the existing uses and Official Plan land use
designations within the neighbouhood.
