Appendix F Consultations

Transportation Planning

Overall, Transportation Planning supports the subject Zoning By-law amendment.

 The Official Plan classifies Marion Avenue and Niagara Street as Local Roads with a required right-of-way width of 20 metres. The current right-of-way width is sufficient, therefore a land conveyance is not required.

 All accesses shall conform to the TAC Geometric Design Guide for Canadian Roads and the City of Windsor Standard Engineering Drawings

 All exterior paths of travel must meet the requirements of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA).

Heritage Planning

The subject building was constructed in 1970 as the C.G. DeSantis School. It was recently the Science Centre (City of Windsor); was De la Salle (1133 Niagara St); and was St. Joseph (previous bldg. on site). This property is not listed on the Windsor Municipal Heritage Register.

There are no apparent archaeological concerns on the property as it is located in an area of low archaeological potential. Nevertheless, the Applicant should be notified of the following archaeological precaution.

1. Should archaeological resources be found during grading, construction or soil removal activities, all work in the area must stop immediately and the City's Planning & Building Department, the City's Manager of Cultural Affairs, and the Ontario Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries must be notified and confirm satisfaction of any archaeological requirements before work can recommence.

2. In the event that human remains are encountered during grading, construction or soil removal activities, all work in that area must be stopped immediately and the site secured. The local police or coroner must be contacted to determine whether or not the skeletal remains are human, and whether the remains constitute a part of a crime scene. The Local police or coroner will then notify the Ontario Ministry of Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries and the Registrar at the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services if needed, and notification and satisfactory confirmation be given by the Ministry of Heritage, Sport, Tourism and Culture Industries.
