Similarly, the railways should consult with Town where facility expansions or changes may impact drainage patterns to adjacent uses.  - 51} ## Section 15: Sensitive Environment Areas ## 15.1 INTRODUCTION Drainage, natural vegetation A number of creeks/marshes create flood prone areas ## 15.2 OBJECTIVES - To restrict development on land that is environmentally sensitive and or subject to development risks. - To acknowledge and protect natural, environmental features, and systems within the Town of Broadview. - To ensure the Town has a sufficient and safe water supply. - To extend the responsibility for sound environmental management to property owners and developers. - To increase awareness and sensitivity to minimize ecological disruption. - & To ensure Storm Water Management practices and drainage infrastructure are well-planned. ## 15.3 POLICIES - Future development shall integrate into the natural surroundings and shall complement the surrounding community design, landscape and vegetation. Natural areas and sensitive environmental area shall be identified and protected where human activities may create potential to stress the environment. - Environmentally sensitive lands in Broadview should be protected as environmental reserve in accordance with The Planning and Development Act, 2007 the Environmental Assessment Act and the Environmental Management and Protection Act, 2002 or relevant acts and legislation. - When reviewing applications for development, consideration shall be given to the proposal's conformity with these policies. A proposal shall be denied when it is detrimental to the health, safety, general welfare of persons residing or working in the area, or incompatible with existing or proposed land uses in the vicinity. - Development shall be integrated with the natural surroundings and should complement he surrounding community design, landscape and vegetation. Existing trees an regetation shall be retained where possible and incorporated into site planning. 52} - variety of native trees and vegetation shall be encouraged to minimize maintenance and water use. - Natural areas, linkages and pathways should be maintained, to the greatest extent possible, as an environmental resource with equitable distribution of built and natural settings for recreation, including facilities, parklands, open space areas, and trails. - The developers shall be required to prove the suitability of the land being proposed for development on the basis of environmental studies and soils reports prepared by accredited professionals. - The Development shall not deplete or pollute groundwater resources within the Town or greater district. Permeable surfaces shall be maximized to reduce storm water runoff and recharge groundwater. - The Town shall ensure adequate storm drainage of all areas of the community by preserving natural holding areas or by other means as may be engineered and constructed. Storm ponds should be viewed an asset to the community and possible connection with trails, vegetation, etc shall be encouraged. - Buffer Strips should be maintained adjacent to watercourses and water bodies to allow for protection measures against erosion, sediment control and flood hazards. Wetlands shall be preserved for the benefit they serve as catchment basins for drainage. - .10 Adequate surface water drainage will be required throughout the Town and on new development sites to avoid flooding, erosion and pollutions. Consideration shall be given to the ecological, wildlife habitat and drainage effects of development in sensitive areas. - .11 The Town may undertake a review of a storm-water management and drainage management plan for both existing development areas and future residential, commercial and industrial areas. New developments shall assess local water drainage patterns as part of initial concept designs and avoid developing in low-lying catchment areas and drainage courses.  ## Section 16: Future Urban Development ## 16.1 INTRODUCTION ## 16.2 OBJECTIVES - To plan for the possibility of urban expansion with regards to infrastructure, future land use needs and other services. - To promote the continuation of agricultural activities on lands located within the Town until the lands are needed for urban development. ## 16.3 POLICIES - The intent of the FUD-Future Urban Development District is to allow for agricultural uses to continue when the future use of land or the timing of development is uncertain due to issues of servicing, transitional use, or market demand. Future Urban Development areas for the Town are identified on the Future Land Use Map (Appendix "A"). - .2 Current agricultural activities will be supported by the Official Community Plan. Agricultural land uses include, but are not limited to, extensive agriculture or secondary - activities that will enhance the economic viability and iversitication of the agricultural sector. The development an fany intensive agricultural or livestock operations adjacent t the Town will be discouraged. - Agricultural holdings within the Town's boundary shall be encouraged to protect the natural and economic value of their soils by minimizing activities that cause soil degradation or loss. Topsoil should be - retained, where possible to provide a rich basis for site planting and landscape development. - .4 Future Urban Development Areas may include: - a) Lands which are capable of a full range of utilities, but for which no overall area Concept Plan has been approved for the general area; or  54) - b) Lands which are not readily capable of being serviced with a full range of utilities, and for which no concept plans have been approved. 2. In areas where higher density/ intensity development is not practical or desirable at the time, land areas shall remain in large acreages in order to facilitate future land assembly and development proposals 3. . 6 In order to facilitate an orderly and economic conversion, the zoning regulations on these lands should take into consideration the following criteria: - a) Lands presently in agriculture use shall be retained for such use in the interim period; - b) Agricultural activities will be of a type which will not create any unacceptable nuisance factors or hazard; - c) The interim development of these lands shall be regulated in such a manner so as to facilitate an economic conversion to urban use, and - d) Capital investment in buildings and structures shall be limited in order to minimize obstacles for future urban development. 8. Development and land use patterns which are adjacent or in proximity to the Town that may have negative effects on future urban design and/or densities that may hinder expansion will be discouraged, or mitigated. This does not apply to such effects that arise in the course of normal, non-intensive farm operations. ## Implementation This zoning designation will be applied as the interim zoning to all land with Future Urban Development potential within the corporate boundaries of the Town of Broadview. FUD- Future Urban Development District (55 } ## Section 17: Implementation and Action Plans Plans are only as good as their implementation. Action Plans provide guidance and a framework for ongoing dedication through municipal influence and community engagement to fulfill this Plan's objectives. The Action Plans for the Town of Broadview are provided in Appendix "D." ## 17.1 MAKING THINGS HAPPEN Successful implementation of this Plan depends to a large degree on whether its policies can  guide local development and action in a variety of contexts over the next five to ten years. This Section ensures that planning is sensitive to local conditions in specific locations of the Town, while at the same time advancing the Plan's core principles and building on its broad objectives. To achieve the goals set out in this Plan, a clear plan of action or implementation strategy is required. Tables have been included in Appendix "D" to provide a checklist of the key action items that will need to be completed to help the Town achieve their goals outlined in the Plan. The action items should be reviewed regularly to monitor progress and to determine if changes are required. ## 17.2 THE PLAN GUIDES ACTION As a statutory document for guiding development and land use in the district, the Plan gives direction to the Community and Council on their day-do-day decision making. The Plan's land use policy areas illustrated on the Future Land Use Map in "Appendix A" provide geographic references for the Municipality's policies. If the Municipality is to move closer to the future envisioned by the Plan, the Plan must guide other related decisions of Council. The Planning and Development Act, 2007 requires that: - Municipal Bylaws and public works will conform to this Plan; - The decisions and actions of Council and staff, including public investment in services, service delivery and infrastructure, will be guided by this Plan; and - Implementation plans, strategies and guidelines, consistent with this Plan will be adopted, identifying priorities, detailed strategies, guidelines and actions, to advance the vision, goals and objectives of this Plan. ## 17.3 THE FUTURE IS A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY A community is successful when all sectors cooperate with their time, effort and resources to enhance the quality of life in the greater community or district. The Town can lead by example with engaged and informed residents to successfully guide the future, measured by the accomplishments made in managing business diversification, environmental stewardship, economic development, community service provision, population growth, and the overall lifestyle available in the Town. To achieve the goals and objectives of this Plan, the Town will advocate for provincial partnerships and  technical assistance to deliver services and programs for sustainable agricultural, economic, and community development. 57 H ## Section 18: Administration ## 18.1 PLANNING TOOLS This Seclion oullines the variely of traditional tools the Municipality has available to make things happen. The Planning and Development Act, 2007 provides the authority that governs plans of subdivision, zoning bylaws, servicing agreement, development levies and review processes to ensure that the Plan is effective over the long term. ## 18.2 DEFINITIONS The definitions contained in the Municipality's Zoning Bylaw shall apply to this Official Community Plan. ## 18.3 ADOPTION OF THE OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN Adoption of this Official Community Plan by the Town will give it the force of law. Once adopted, no development or land use change may be carried out within the area affected by the Plan that is inconsistent or at variance with the proposals or policies set out in the Plan.  By setting vut guais, ubjectives, and pulicies, ine Plan will provide guidance for the Municipalities in making decisions regarding land use, zoning, servicing extension, subdivisions and development in general. These decisions must be made in conformity with the stated objectives and policies to ensure that the goals for the future development of the Municipality will be achieved. The application of the Plan policies is illustrated in the Future Land Use Map provided in "Appendix A." This Map is intended to illustrate the locations of the major land use designations within the Municipality. The "Map" should not be interpreted in isolation without consideration of the balance of the Official Community Plan. The Land use designations have been determined by a number of factors including existing patterns of land use, projected land needs, resource areas, natural attributes and man-made features.  This Plan will be implemented, in part; by the development-related decisions that will be made in the future; however, the two most important tools available for guiding the future development of the Municipality are the Zoning Bylaw and the subdivision process, including associated agreements. ## 18.4 ADOPTION OF MUNICIPAL ZONING BYLAWS The Planning and Development Act, 2007 requires the Municipality to adopt a Zoning Bylaw in conjunction with the Official Community Plan. The Zoning Bylaw will be used to implement the policies and achieve the objectives of this Plan by prescribing the uses of land, buildings or other improvements that will be allowed in the different zoning districts established in the Municipality. In addition, the Zoning Bylaw regulates how these uses may be carried out and the standards that developments must meet. - The Zoning Bylaw must generally conform to the Official Community Plan and future land use and development shall be consistent with the goals and objectives of this Plan; - Future development will avoid land uses conflict and meet minimum standards to maintain the amenity of the - Zoning Bylaws designate areas for certain types of development. Permitted and discretionary uses and development standards are prescribed for each zone; - Development will be consistent with the physical opportunities of the land and of reasonable engineering solutions; - Undue demand shall not be placed on the Municipality for services, such as roads, parking, water, sewers, waste disposal, and open space; and - The objectives and policies in the Official Community Plan provide guidance to Council when preparing the Zoning Bylaw or considering an amendment to the Zoning Bylaw. The Zoning Bylaw provides the Municipality with actual control over land use and the types of development and uses allowed in each land use district. The associated supplementary requirements, and development standards will be specified in the Zoning Bylaw respecting building setbacks, parking, loading, landscaping, signage, buffering and all other relevant standards proscribed by the Municipalities from time to time. To ensure that these regulations work to help achieve the stated goals and objectives, the Bylaw itself must be consistent with the policies and the intent of this Plan. In considering a Zonins ylaw or an amendment, the Municipality should refer to the policies contained in the Plan an the "Future Land Use Map" (Appendix A), to ensure that the development objectives of the Municipality are met. ## 18.5 CONTRACT ZONING AND DIRECT CONTROL DISTRICTS For purposes of accommodating a rezoning for unique development situations, Council may consider entering into rezoning agreements, pursuant to provisions of The Planning and Development Act, 2007, for site specific development based on the following guidelines: - The rezoning to permit the development will not unduly conflict with adjacent land uses that are legally permitted uses within the proposed or adjacent zoning district; - The rezoning will be used to allow a specific use or range of uses contained within the zoning district to which the land is being rezoned; - The development or redevelopment of the site for the specific use will be of benefit to the immediate area and the Municipality as a whole. - The use of these zoning tools does not undermine the intent of the Plan or any affected legislation such as The Condominium Act or Environment or Health regulations. ## 18.6 CONCEPT PLANS Concept plans are reference plans, not policy plans. They represent design layout concepts prepared at the request of the Municipal Council to provide direction for how new developments: - Ensure the efficient provision of infrastructure services; - Demonstrate how site development will be organized to ensure compatibility with adjoining land uses and transportation systems; and - Provide design features for special purposes such as landscaping, buffers, open space, pedestrian and vehicular access. ## 18.7 COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENT REVIEWS A comprehensive development review shall be completed by any person proposing to rezone, subdivide, or re-subdivide land for multi-parcel country residential, commercial or industrial purposes. The purpose of this review is to identify and address social, environmental, health and economic issues appropriately and to encourage the development of high quality residential, commercial, and industrial developments. This review proposes to address the following topics: - 60 }  - Proposed land use(s) for various parts of the area; - The effect on adjacent land uses and integration of the natural landscape regarding the planning and design of the area; - The location of, and access to, major transportation routes and utility corridors; - The provision of services respecting the planning for future infrastructure within the Municipality; - Sustainable development and environmental management practices regarding surface and groundwater resources, storm water management, flooding and protection of significant natural areas; - Appropriate information specific to the particular land use (residential, commercial or industrial); and - Proponents may be required to undertake and submit special studies as part of the approval process for certain types of development proposals. Engineering or other professional studies may be required including traffic studies to determine impacts upon the Municipality's road and highway system, assessments of lands affected by flooding or slope hazards, endangered species, heritage resources, potential for ground and surface water pollution, and general risk to health and the environment. ## 18.8 EXISTING AND NON-CONFORMING USES Where land use is designated in the Plan which differs from existing use, the existing use will be allowed to continue as a non-conforming use. However, any redevelopment of the parcel of land or expansion of the conforming use will be required to comply with the land use designated in the Plan, unless otherwise approved by Council under the provisions for nonconforming uses in the particular Zoning Bylaw. ## 18.9 DEVELOPMENT LEVIES AND AGREEMENTS Council may provide for a Development Levy Bylaw as specified in Sections 169 to 170 of The Planning and Development Act, 2007. Where a development is proposed that is of a greater density and requires the capital upgrading of services beyond those originally provide for in the subdivision of the land, Council may by Bylaw, provide for the recovery of those capital costs. Council may adopt a Bylaw that specifies the circumstances when these direct or indirect levies will apply to the development based on the additional capital costs for services created by that development. The Bylaw will contain a schedule of the unit costs to be applied. Before adopting the Bylaw, Council will undertake studies necessary to define the benefiting areas and the unit costs associated with required capital upgrading of off-site services. The studies will be used to determine a fair level of development levy charges in relation to the subdivision fees. ## 18.10 SERVICING AGREEMENTS Council may establish fees for the collection of subdivision servicing charges that would be applied in a servicing agreement at the time of subdivision in accordance with Section 172 of The Planning and Development Act, 2007, at the time of subdivision approval to ensure that new subdivisions are developed to the standards of the Municipality and to address other concerns specific to the proposed subdivision. Where Council requires a Servicing Agreement, the Agreement becomes a condition of approval of a subdivision by the approving authority. The Agreement will ensure that municipal standards are met for capital works and ensure that such infrastructure development costs are borne by the developer and his/her customers. A Servicing Agreement will be required by all subdivision proponents. The requirements, conditions and fees may vary depending upon service needs. ## 18.11 SUBDIVISION PROCESS The Director of Community Planning for the Ministry of Government Relations is currently the approving authority for subdivisions in this Municipality. In order for the subdivision to be completed in a timely manner, it is advisable to consult with the planning staff of the Municipality before submitting a subdivision proposal to Government Relations. The Municipality: - Provides comments on all subdivision applications within the Municipality. - Has an impact on the subdivision process through the Zoning Bylaw, since no subdivision can be approved that does not conform to the Zoning Bylaw. In the Zoning Bylaw, the Municipality can establish the minimum area, width, or depth of lots, and other spatial and land use standards. Zoning is intended to implement the Municipality's development policies, and to ensure that subdivisions contribute to achieve the long term goals of the Municipality. (62} ## 18.12 MONITORING PERFORMANCE ## Review  The Official Community Plan is a document intended to guide decision making over the long term and is not a static document that commits the Municipality to an inflexible development policy. As new issues and concerns arise, or old ones change, the Plan shall be revised to meet these changes. The "Plan" shall be reviewed after five years and before ten years from the date of its adoption by Council to evaluate the stated goals, objectives and policies as to their relevancies. The Plan must be kept up to date to ensure that the document will deal with the real development issues facing the Municipality and the greater community. New implementation initiatives will be needed and priorities will require adjustment in response to the varied and changing conditions in the Municipality. ## Amendment On occasion land uses or developments may be proposed that do not conform to the Official Community Plan. The Plan can be amended in accordance with The Planning and Development Act, 2007, to allow the new development to proceed. However, before any amendment is made, the impact of the proposed change on the rest of the Plan and the future development of the Municipality shall be examined. Any changes to the Plan or the Zoning Bylaw shall be in the interest of the future development of the community as a whole. Through periodical review and amendment the Plan should serve as an effective guide for the Council to make decisions on future development in their Municipality as a whole. 63} ## Section 19: Repeal and Effective Date of Bylaw ## 19.1 REPEAL All previous Land Use Plans and Policy Bylaws shall be repealed upon, the Official Community Plan, coming into force and effect. ## 19.2 MINISTERIAL APPROVAL This Bylaw is adopted pursuant to The Planning and Development Act, 2007, and shall come int orce on the date of final approval by the Minister of Government Relations ## 19.3 COUNCIL READINGS AND ADOPTION Read a first time this Read a second time this Read a third time this day of day of day of 2013 2014 2014 MAYOR ADMINISTRATOR Tim Cheesman, MCIP, P.Ag Professional Planner (6) ## Appendix "A» Future Land Use Map ## Appendix "B" Reference Maps - 2} ## Population: The current population of Broadview is 574 persons based on the 2013 Saskatchewan Health data and 620 persons based on Census Data. Assuming an annual growth rate of 1.0% the projected population for Broadview in the year 2050 in 37 years is 829-900 persons. We will use these numbers in assessing Broadview's current infrastructure capacities. ## Connections: Assuming 3.2 persons per household, there is approximately 179 residences in Broadview. Actual Households are approximately 300+. If the population grows to 829-900 persons this translates to approximately 259-275 residences (an increase of 80-100 residences). ## Water Demand, Supply, Treatment & Storage: Assuming an Average Daily Water Demand of 300 L/cap/day translates into a current total demand of 175 m3 per day (2.0 L/s). Using a peak factor of 2.4 gives a peak day requirement of 420 m' (4.9 L/s). In 2050 with a population of 829 persons, the projected average and peak day demands are 207m/day (2.9 L/s) and 598 m/day (6.9 L/s) respectively. The current peak hour flow is 8.0 L/s and projected peak hour is 11.6 L/s. The water system consists of three wells which have a capacity of 1382 m/day which is sufficient to provide enough water for 4600 persons assuming an average demand of 300 L/person/day. Two new pumps have recently been installed. We assume they have been sized to accommodate future growth. The Water Treatment Plant can process 485 L/min or 233m/day assuming a 9 hour day (8 hours for production and 1 hour for backwashing). This is enough water for 776 people. If the plant was operated for 24 hours, it would be able to treat 669m/day which provides enough water for 2231 people. Guidelines for water storage are two average day demand plus one hour of fire flow at 67 L/s. This calculates to 738 m? storage requirement at full growth. The reservoir has a current capacity of 734 m which is sufficient. Eliminating the fire flow requirement allows the current reservoir to be sufficient for 1223 persons. The water distribution pumps are capable of providing 14.7 L/s which is more than the peak hour requirement of 11.6 L/s. One area of concern is that the cast iron distribution mains were installed in the 1960's and are approaching the end of their design life. If the Town starts experiencing a number of water main breaks then they should look at an annual replacement program prior to any road works. ## Appendix "C" Infrastructure Capacities In summary, Broadview's water system is in good shape and has sufficient capacity for the projected growth. If growth rates jump or a significant industrial user connects to the system, then the growth rates and capacity of the system should be reviewed at that time. ## Effluent Disposal: The primary cell has an area of 2.23 ha (5.5 acres) which provides a treatment capacity for 869 persons (40 more than the projected growth requirement). The secondary cell has a storage capacity of 96,000 m' which provides sufficient storage for 980 people for 210 days. This is 151 persons more than the projected growth requrement. The sewage Ilft statlon has a capacity of 27 L/s which exceeds the calculated peak flow of 19.3 Ifs for a population of 829 persons. The sewage collection system consists of 200, 250 and 300 mm VCT pipe installed in the 1960's. This pipe is approaching the end of its design life and the Town should undertake a camera inspection project to check the condition of this pipe. The joints especially are prone to separation and penetration by tree roots. If warranted, an annual replacement program would be a good idea prior to any further road surfacing work. In summary, Broadview's sewage treatment system is in relatively good shape to accommodate the projected growth. This could change if a high sewage generator such as an ethanol plant or food processing plant connects to the system. ## Storm Water: Drainage is handled by a combination of storm water pipe (minor system) and surface drainage (major system). No problems or issues have been raised over the years so no upgrade work is anticipated. Future growth, however, should follow current standards and practices. ## Growth Areas: The Town should look at infill areas as the first areas of growth. These have the advantage of using existing infrastructure without the need for expensive capital projects such as lift stations. Two specific areas identified for growth are the SE corner of Town on 2nd and 3'd Avenue. There is enough area for approximately 140 lots when the estimated growth suggested 80 lots would be sufficient. The other area is on the west side of town extending Main, Edmonton and Calgary Streets. There is enough area for approximately 68 lots. In summary, between infill lots and these two areas, there is ample space for Broadview to achieve its growth targets. The other potential urban development areas will likely need a lift station and should be considered very long term. Highway Commercial should be targeted adjacent to Highway No 1. This area identified on the plan can be serviced for about $100,000 an acre. ## Appendix "D" Action Plans Community Engagement | IMPLEMENTATION | | | Key Participants/Stakeholder |

Sample Development Proposal Format BERLIN DEVELOPMENTS LTD. Proposes ## HEIDELBERG ESTATES ## MULTI-PARCEL DEVELOPMENT A Complementary Phase of Hamburg Estates Phase IV ## Submission Prepared for Town of Broadview - × } ## INTRODUCTION This report is intended to express our client's interest in developing a quality high-density countryresidential development within the Town of Broadview. This development would consist of the Development of Lot 1 of Block 2 of the NW XX-XX-XX-W2nd, to provide a total of 44-45 new residential sites within a planned unit development under condominium ownership on a 20 acre parcel. In 1994 Berlin Developments Ltd. initiated a country residential proposal known as Hamburg Estates. hat initiative was proposed in response to a perceived need in the market place for high-end estat ving. To date this development is over 80% sol Throughout the development process of estate lots, many clients expressed strong interest in an adult oriented residential condominium project which would complement the urban/ rural acreage development by Berlin Developments Ltd. ## PROPOSAL SUMMARY This initiative proposes to develop subdivided Lot 1 of Block 2 which is 20 acres into 44-45 single residential dwelling units in a planned unit development under condominium ownership. The market targeted would be adult oriented, with housing in the neighbourhood of $300,000 - $400,000 per unit. However, marketing will not be limited to this cross-section of the market as the need for even more affordable quality homes is recognized by Berlin Developments Ltd. Development control guidelines would be in place to address construction deadlines, minimum square footage, fencing, architectural controls, and other measures as deemed appropriate as in all Berlin Developments Ltd. A full provision of services is proposed, including surfaced internal roads, utilities and other amenities as required by this market. This would involve the provision of full water service, along with off-site waste management, a landscaping and drainage plan, lighting, common grounds, facility development, garbage removal, and all other amenities common to similar development in other urban centres. With the exception of an increase in traffic on XXXX Avenue, little demand will be added to municipal services. Impacts of development are minimized by the following: - Water connection would be to the existing Town of Broadview water line (subject to Town approval): - ·Power, gas and telephone lines exist in close proximity to the proposed sites; - ·Development of a sewage lagoon and sewage removal system would be undertaken and maintained by the developer; - ·Internal roads would be surfaced, built to municipal standard; and - The proposed subdivisions are on the existing garbage collection and haul route and convenient for similar solid waste removal weekly as in the balance of the Town. Development of the residences and site would be undertaken by Berlin Developments Ltd. ## MARKET ASSESSMENT ## HEIDELBERG ESTATES MULTI-PARCEL DEVELOPMENT xi Within the WaterWolf region there exists a sizeable population of the upper income 55+ age group. Within this group there exists considerable demand for estate living experience. However, this group is not willing to forego the conveniences of urban amenities and expects a higher level of service than the rural acreage resident. The large numbers of individuals who have expressed interest in this type of development are those who either feel that a rural acreage home requires too much work or are dissatistied with high density urban condominium developments. Developments catering to this market must combine a country residential atmosphere with the high level of amenities required. These amenilies include quality polable waler and sewage handling, good local roads, a sense of community, local natural amenities and space, while at the same time in close proximity to the City of Saskatoon less than one hour away, all amenities presently provided for in Hamburg Estates. The minimum 50'x 110' individual parcel size has been selected primarily in response to market demand and experience with urban developments. Second only to the level of services offered, the lot size is the second most important consideration for those interested in country residential living. The response by this age group has created a demand for a large enough lot to provide a minimum 1,200 square foot bungalow with garages for vehicle R.V. parking area while retaining a manageable individual yard for landscape and patio amenities.  Another aspect of this market is a strong preference for a 'sense of community', which is even stronger than in the previous Hamburg Estates Developments. Subdivisions that project a sense of community tend to sell quicker, experience a significantly slower turnover rate, and are generally better maintained properties. Given these market characteristics and continued housing demand, it is important to note that this location has proven to be extremely attractive. No other residential developments exist that offers such an appealing location close to the City of Saskatoon, in a strong urban centres, golf courses, medical facilities, recreation and shopping, etc. ## PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS The following development controls and improvements are proposed for this development: - ·Potable water will be provided through a connection to Municipal water; - ·Sewage will be handled by an internal collection system with an off-site lagoon to be maintained by the developer and located the appropriate distance as per Saskatchewan Health and Sask Environment regulations; - ·Internal roads will be Surfaced or Double chip sealed and built to municipal standard and will include individual access; - ·Each individual building parcel will be serviced by power, natural gas, telephone, and cable; - ·Architecturally controlled fencing will be installed required around the property; - ·Landscaping and common recreation and amenity space will be done by Berlin Developments Ltd. which will accentuate the rural feeling and also provide a common recreation centre and games area; - ·Surfaced R.V. parking; and - ·Minimum dwelling size shall be as follows: - ·All housing will be single detached dwellings, architecturally controlled; - ·All dwellings will feature a minimum two car attached garage; - Vinyl siding or stucco will be a minimum requirement; and - ·Accessory buildings will require Developer approval.

The parcel of land involved is Class 4 land. This land has severe limitations that restrict the range of crops that can be grown. This is primarily due to the sandy structure of the soil. Much of the land proposed is covered with poplar and aspen bluffs, which are ideally suited to country residential development and in fact will be incorporated in the design. In addition, Berlin Developments has recognized the need to utilize land efficiently and the negative impact of consuming large tracts of rural land. Therefore, it was felt that this concept would utilize part of an existing developed area. We also recognize the innovative concept will require a review of the existing Official Community Plan and Zoning Bylaw provisions. In addition, we recognize the need to participate in public consultation with all affected stakeholders and the adoption of a structure and / or concept plan for the area. The proximity to major amenities for this market niche is excellent, as several golf courses are located nearby - along with proposed on-site recreational amenities in a country setting, and convenient surface access to Highway No. 11. xiv It is anticipated that XXXX Avenue will carry the vast majority of traffic from the residential development. The convenience of using XXXX Avenue to Heidelberg Estates households is anticipated to be high, given the short travel distances involved and the route's superior road design and snow removal services. The developers will be building the residences to ensure quality and compatible development. Development would occur within one year, thus ensuring an orderly and timely rate of development. Any required municipal servicing and development agreements will be entered into in order to clearly define areas of responsibility. Any municipal reserve requirements will be addressed to the l Municipality. in addressing the Official Community Plan requirements, the following separation distances and uses have been respected, including separation from: - Intensive livestock operations; - ·Hazardous industry; - ·Rural industrial zone; - Sewage lagoon sites; and Solid waste disposal sites. No development will be allowed on lands with: - High aggregate potential; - Designated as conservation areas; - Significant wildlife habitat; - ·Cultural or historic significance; - On environmentally sensitive areas; - High agricultural capability; and - ·Natural Hazard conditions. ## MARKETING STRATEGY Berlin Developments Ltd. will use its proven marketing strategy which consists of: - ·A prominent sign on the corner of the development; ·A sales office will be open adjacent to Berlin Developments' principal residence. The sales office/show room will be staffed from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., seven days per week during peak seasons; - ·A visual rendering in the show home will outline the proposed development in its fully developed stage; - ·Brochures and advertising as in all Berlin Developments; - ·Individual signs will be erected on site indicating relevant information; - ·Financing for individual purchasers will be made available; - ·A broad promotion campaign involving television, radio and print media will continue; - ·Sales would be open to members of the area Real Estate Board's multiple listing service; and - ·Refunds will be provided if construction is not initiated within one year. ## LAND USE POLICY AND ZONING IMPLICATIONS It is recognized that this development scenario is new to the Town of Broadview; however, similar developments have been undertaken around the Cities of Saskatoon, Winnipeg and Calgary. This particular development would require amendments to the policy plan; however, the basic intent of accommodating multi-parcel residential uses would seem compatible. The issue of densities and site sizes would require change. This development would be ideally suited to the use of 'Direct Control District' or 'Contract Zoning' provisions. As in other developments, a suitable contract zoning, servicing, and development agreement could be developed to protect all parties. The condominium ownership issue should not affect land use considerations, however, would serve to enhance the option for an 'organized hamlet' process for the Hamburg Estates area. The concept of providing higher density and high recreational amenity development, while at the same time retaining a rural emphasis, is not inconsistent with the multi-parcel higher density provisions of the Official Community Plan. in addition, by incorporating this proposal inio an existing devclopmeni, ii would noi be inconsisteni with separation distance provisions. ## SERVICING COSTS Servicing costs have been prepared and illustrated below in both summary and detailed formats. The cost estimate was based on the assumption that the water supply system would entail the construction of a distribution system connected to the Municipal water service on XXXX Avenue presently ending at the Hamburg Estates, and the construction of an entirely independent sanitary sewer system with the acquisition of land for a sewage lagoon, north of the development. The servicing costs reflect the expected level of service for such a development. Landscaping plans and costs have not been included in the proposal at this time as the layout will be modified to address the natural environment. ## Table C2C: Summary Cost Estimate xvi } ## TABLE C2D: DETAILED COST ESTIMATE | WATER DISTRIBUTION | $70,760.00 | |--------------------------------------|--------------| | SANITARY SEWER | $62,320.00 | | SANITARY FORCEMAIN & LIFT STATION | $94,240.00 | | BUILDING SERVICES | $40,370.00 | | WATER SUPPLY LINE | $95,000.00 | | SEWAGE LAGOON | $230,000.00 | | ROUGHGRADING | $14,700.00 | | ROAD CONSTRUCTION | $148,830.00 | | UTILITIES (TELEPHONE, ELECTRIC, GAS) | $99,000.00 | | STREET LIGHTS | $22,400.00 | | SUB-TOTAL SERVICING | $877,620.00 | | ENGINEERING AND CONTINGENCY (15%) | $131,380.00 | | TOTAL DEVELOPMENT COST | $909,000.00 | Note: Does not include cost of access road to lagoon. | Water Distribution System | | | | |------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|------------| | | 150 diameter Water main | 835 x $56.00 | $46,760.00 | | | Fitting, Bends and Valves | L.S. | $5,000.00 | | | Hydrant c/w Tees, Leads and Thrust Blocks | 6 each x$2,500.00 | $15,000.00 | | | Tie in to Proposed Water Supply Line | LS | $1,000.00 | | | Pressure Test | | $3,000.00 | | | Sub- Tota!
