Re: 7117 Bathurst Street Parking Study
LEA Consulting Ltd. has been retained by Torgan Group to prepare a parking study for the existing commercial plaza located at 7117 Bathurst Street in the City of Vaughan. Under the current zoning bylaw the subject site is allowed to provide up to 20% of its total GF A for restaurant use. The current owners are seeking a minor variance to this by-law to allow for a pizza outlet of 93.5 square meter in one of its units. The purpose of this study is to examine the parking needs of the current use and determine the parking impacts of the proposed pizza outlet. It was determined that there is limited parking availability during the weekday peak period on site, as such it is proposed that 15 off-site parking spaces be provided at the adjacent 7131 Parking lot to meet peak parking demands at 7117 Bathurst Street for the existing and proposed uses.
Existing Use
The existing commercial plaza at the north east comer of Towns gate Drive and Bathurst Street currently provides 104 parking spaces, as illustrated in Figure 1. The plaza is comprised of medical offices, personal services shops, professional offices, and restaurants. Table 1 summarizes the existing uses on site.

Figure 1: Site Location
Parking surveys were conducted on a Wednesday, Friday and Saturday to detennine the current weekday and weekend parking demands at the subject site, as summarized in Table 2. Based on the results from the weekday parking demand, the subject site currently does not have sufficient parking to meet the existing land uses during the peak periods. During the Friday parking survey limited parking availability occurred between 10:40 a.m. to 2:00p.m. and between 11:00 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. on the Wednesday parking survey. It was observed that during these peak periods, visitors parked on-street along Crestwood Road and along the drive aisle within the site. During Saturday survey, it was observed that 19 spaces remain during the peak period between 11 :00 a.m. to 11 :20 a.m. providing a sufficient parking supply for the existing uses.
Table 2: 7117 Bathurst Street Parking Survey Summary
Due to limited parking opportunities during the weekday peak periods at the subject site, off-site parking has been suggested to be accommodated at 7131 Bathurst Street, also owned by the Torgan Group. This site lies directly north of the subject site, as illustrated in Figure 1. A parking survey was conducted on February 22nd, 2012 to detennine the existing parking demand at this property, as summarized in Table 3. The results from this survey indicate that during the peak period between 10:40 a.m. - 11 :00 a.m. there were 29 spaces available. Taking into consideration the additional weekday existing parking demand at the subject site of 6 vehicles during the weekday peak period, there is an additional23 parking spaces available for the proposed use.
March 5,2012 Mr. Kurt Franklin Our Ref.: 9041.200 Page3
Table 3: 7131 Bathurst Street Parking Survey Summary
Proposed Use
The proposed pizza outlet will acquire a vacant unit on the ground floor with a GF A of 93.5 square meter. Based on the current City of Vaughan Parking Bylaw 1-88 the proposed pizza outlet will require 9 parking spaces, while the City of Vaughan's draft bylaw1 will require 7 parking spaces as summarized in Table 4. Given that the City of Vaughan Council is in the process of adopting the draft bylaw, the total required parking spaces required for the proposed pizza outlet will be 7 parking spaces. These 7 parking spaces can be accommodated by the additional23 spaces available at 7131 Bathurst Street.
Proposed Pizza Outlet Eating Establishment,
Take-out
Table 4 Proposed Parking Bylaw Requirements
Transportation Demand Management
Given the existing parking demands onsite, during the weekday peak period an additional 6 spaces will be required. Furthermore, based on the additional 7 parking space required for the proposed pizza outlet, a total number of 13 spaces will be needed at 7137 Bathurst Street to meet the proposed parking demands. As part of this transportation demand management measure, it is preliminary agreed that a portion of the southerly parking spaces will be reserved for tenants and visitors to 711 7 Bathurst Street. The exact number of parking spaces will be determined through a needs assessment upon opening of the proposed pizza outlet, however 15 spaces will be temporarily reserved for opening day, as illustrated in Figure 2.
Conclusion
Based on the survey results of the existing land uses at 7117 Bathurst Street, there is insufficient parking supply to accommodate the parking demands during the weekday peak periods. As such, additional spaces were sought in the adjacent parking lot at 7131 Bathurst Street. Based on the weekday survey results at 7131 Bathurst Street, it was determined that there was an excess supply of 29 parking spaces during the weekday peak period. Taking into consideration the existing additional parking demands at 7117 Bathurst Street, there are sufficient parking spaces to accommodate the 7 parking spaces required for the proposed pizza outlet under the draft bylaw.
It is proposed that 15 parking spaces located at the southern tip of 7131 Bathurst Street will be reserved for tenant and visitor parking at the subject site to accommodate the existing and proposed uses at this site.

7117 Bathurst Street, Thornhill
The Owner is requesting permission to increase the area devoted to Eating Establishment uses on the ground floor, resulting in a total gross floor area devoted to Eating Establishment uses of 40%, whereas site specific Exception 9(883) of By-law 1-88 requires 20%.
The subject lands are designated "General Commercial" by OPA #21 0 (Thornhill Community Plan), as amended by OPA #444. The subject lands are also designated "Mid Rise Mixed Use" by the City of Vaughan Official Plan 2010, which is subject to approval by the Ontario Municipal Board. The proposal conforms to the policies of the Official Plan.
The Owner is proposing a fourth Eating Establishment (Unit #1 08). The Agent advised that there are 4 existing Eating Establishments (Units #102, #106, #109, and #110). However, upon further review by the Building Standards Department and the Development Planning Department, Unit #1 09 was issued a Building Permit as a retail store and, therefore, is not an Eating Establishment. The existing Eating Establishment uses on the subject lands are as follows:
Unit# Existing Use GFA Permit Issued
102 Eating 179.3m2 Yes Establishment, Take Out
106 Eating 130m2 Yes Establishment
108 Eating 93.5m~ No Establishment, (Proposed) Take Out
110 Eating 139.35m~ Yes Establishment
Site specific Exception 9(883) states that Eating Establishment uses shall be restricted to 20% of the gross floor area on the ground floor only. The Building Standards Department has advised that the total GFA of the ground floor is 1412m2.
The GFA devoted to the existing Eating Establishments, noted above, is 448.65m2. The proposal for another Eating Establishment increases the total GFA to 542.15m2 or, 38.4% of the total GFA of the ground floor.

Recommendation:
Condition(s):
The Building Standards Department has advised that additional parking spaces are not required for the proposed increase to the area devoted to Eating Establishments. Exception 9(883) of Zoning By-law 1-88 requires a minimum of 106 parking spaces on the subject lands. The Owner has advised that there are 106 spaces on site. Therefore, the additional GFA for Eating Establishment uses requested in Minor Variance Application A058/12 does not require additional parking spaces.
However, in consideration of this application, Development Planning staff conducted a site visit with photo documentation on February 14, 2012. The following site conditions were noted:
• The subject lands are currently occupied by a two storey multi-unit commercial building with various medical, retail, office and eating establishment uses
• The parking supply on site is insufficient to accommodate the existing site conditions
The insufficient parking supply is noted in a parking study prepared by LEA Consulting Ltd. and submitted by the Agent in support of Minor Variance Application A058/12. Specifically, as noted by LEA Consulting Ltd., 7117 Bathurst Street does not have sufficient parking on site to meet the existing land uses during peak periods. It was also noted that visitors parked on-street along Crestwood Road and along the drive aisle within the site.
To accommodate the deficiency in parking, the Owner is proposing that 15 additional parking spaces be accommodated at the adjacent site to the north (7131 Bathurst Street) for tenant and visitor parking. The Development Planning Department would not support this alternative.
The Development/Transportation Engineering Department has also expressed concern with the proposal to accommodate parking at the adjacent site to the north. They oppose the concept of off-site parking.
In summary, the Building Standards Department has advised that a parking variance is not required; however, in its review of this application, the Development Planning Department cannot ignore the existing site conditions and is of the opinion that the proposal is not desirable for the appropriate development of the subject lands, nor is the request for a 100% increase of ground floor GFA devoted to Eating Establishment uses considered to be minor in nature. Adding additional GFA devoted to Eating Establishment uses would further exacerbate the problem of an insufficient parking supply on the subject lands.
The Development Planning Department does not support Minor Variance Application A058/12.
None.

1. The total gross floor area of all the Eating Establishment uses shall be restricted to 40% of the gross floor area of the ground floor.
Please find the attached comments prepared by Niaz Muhammad, Senior Transportation Analyst from the Transportation Planning Division of the Development/Transportation Engineering Department:
"The Transportation Planning Division has reviewed the Parking Study dated March 5, 2012 conducted by LEA Consulting Ltd. for the aforementioned development. We have following comments:
The parking study is in support of an eating establishment (Pizza Outlet) to an existing Plaza at the subject location. The development will consists of approximately 93.5 sq.m gross floor area and would require a parking of 10 spaces as per By-Law 1-88.
As per parking utilization survey there is no parking available at 7117 Bathurst Street to serve the proposed eating establishment. The study recommends 15 off-site parking spaces at the adjacent commercial development that is located across the Crestwood Road i.e. 7131 Bathurst Street. Following details are provided in the report.
Description Existing/Approved Observed/Occupied spaces
7117 106 spaces@ 110 spaces Bathurst St 3.17/100 sq.m (4 illegal parking) 7131 143 spaces@ 5.7/100 117 spaces Bathurst St sq.m
;;.. We do oppose the concept of off-site parking as recommended in the study report. The study should provide further details, e.g. agreement with adjacent development to share the parking. How will parking spaces be marked or reserved for the proposed development? How patrons of the proposed development will be educated to park their vehicles at 7131 Bathurst Street?
;;.. The study should include a functional plan showing the pedestrian connectivity between proposed parking area at 7131 Bathurst Street and proposed development. Furthermore study should also include the pedestrian safety review.

~ Page 2 of the report includes an statement that ' During the Friday parking survey, limited parking availability occurred between 10:40 a.m. to 2:00p.m. and between 11:00 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. on the Wednesday parking survey. It was observed that during these peak periods, visitors parked on-street along Crestwood Road and along the drive aisle within the site.'
The illegally parked vehicles on drive aisle, as mentioned in the report may cause safety concerns both for the motorists and pedestrians. Furthermore study should ensure that the vehicles parked on Crestwood Road do not exceed three hour parking limit (City By-Law).
~ Provide details/calculation regarding parking requirement at 7131 Bathurst Street e.g. observed maximum parking spaces and provided factor of safety/buffer to meet parking demand during busy hours etc.
~ We require that the Parking Study should address the comments listed herein. Please contact me if you have any questions or require further clarifications.
The applicant is required to satisfy all the comments as noted above to the satisfaction of the Development/Transportation Engineering Department.
