Traffic Management and Parking. In the past, vehicles have had difficulty moving through the site. The development has multiple property owners, which has led to each site being developed in isolation, without coordination. In addition to this, a building was developed in the centre of the parking lot, which further impeded traffic flow. Prior to this request, the applicant improved the traffic flow by removing this building and working with the other land owners to realign the parking lot to provide consistency and improved vehicle flow across the site. The parallel parking spaces along the side of the main driveway aisle have been removed to reduce the opportunity for vehicle conflicts and allow for improved vehicle movement through the site. Attachment C shows the site layout prior to these improvements. The improvements have helped to alleviate the traffic flow problems on the site and are depicted on Schedule B. The applicant is proposing 49 new parking spaces for this development, however, the land use by-law would require 55 spaces for a building of this size. As there is an abundance of existing parking spaces nearby, staff is satisfied with the quantity of new parking spaces to be provided. Pedestrian Access Pedestrian access is provided from Forest Hills Parkway via a sidewalk that connects to a walkway that runs in front of the existing plaza and connects to the proposed building, as shown on Schedule B. A pedestrian walkway also comes into the site from Xxxx Harbour Road and runs in front of the existing Sobey’s building, which connects with the mall site. The Sobey’s building is owned by a separate land owner, but does provide a pedestrian connection that connects with the existing plaza and leads to the proposed development. Crosswalks are provided from the parking lot to the building to provide safe crossings for pedestrians.
