Land Evaluation Area Review (LEAR)

  • Existing Prime Agricultural, Agricultural and Rural Areas in

Region of Peel and Town of Caledon Official Plans

  • Confirm accuracy of Prime Agriculture Area mapping as a

basis to protect the best agricultural land from impacts of urban and rural non-farm uses

  • Peel and Caledon Official Plans enable LEAR study to

identify Prime Agricultural Areas Minimum Distance Separation (MDS)

  • Review of Minimum Distance Separation (MDS)

  • LE = Land Evaluation
  • AR = Area Review
  • LEAR is a Regional exercise - a comparative study of

Agricultural Lands within the defined Study Area

  • LEAR is a technical tool to assist municipalities in identifying

Prime Agricultural Areas for protection in policy documents (i.e. Official Plan)

  • Developed by OMAF, a LEAR is the Provincial Standard for

the identification of Prime Agricultural Areas by Planning Authorities

WHAT IS A LEAR?

  • Ensures Prime Agricultural Area mapping in the Region of

Peel and Town of Caledon Official Plans are consistent with Provincial Policy and Guidelines

  • Protects high quality agricultural land for future food

production

  • Protects and enhance the agricultural economy
  • Provides technical recommendations on refinement of Prime

Agricultural Area in Caledon

WHAT DOES A LEAR DO?

  • LEAR does not compare lands within the Region to

Agricultural lands outside of the Study Area (Region)

  • LEAR does not amend Official Plan land use designations.

This is a separate process under the Planning Act

  • LEAR studies are not undertaken to satisfy municipal

comprehensive review requirements for settlement boundary expansions

Study Area Excludes:

  • Areas with contiguous Prime, General Agricultural or Rural

designations that did not comprise an area of 250 hectares or greater and were not classified “farmed” by the Ecological Land Classification data were removed from the study area – OMAF recommends that prime agricultural areas should be 250 hectares or larger – Ecological Land Classification Data is further verification that land is not farmed

  • Lands within Settlement Areas and urban area boundaries
  • Properties that have been previously evaluated and received

site specific planning approval to be removed from the Prime Agricultural Area will retain their approved land use designation

  • The LEAR guidelines directs the establishment of an

agricultural advisory committee to guide the LEAR process.

  • In 2013, the Peel Agricultural Advisory Working Group

(PAAWG) was formed as the LEAR Review Committee.

  • The

LEAR Review Committee also includes staff representatives from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture & Food, Credit Valley Conservation and Toronto Region Conservation.

  • The LEAR Review Committee provided input into the LEAR

process as it refined the Study Area and selected and weighted the LEAR factors.

  • The LEAR Review Committee assessed the LEAR scores

and selected a recommended Threshold score and range.

  • 50% of Total LEAR Score
  • The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food (OMAF) soils

data set was applied to the Evaluation Units

  • OMAF data was cross referenced with slope data to confirm

Canada Land Inventory (CLI) rating

  • The area and percent occurrence of each soil type inside

each soil polygon within each Evaluation Unit was calculated and a score was assigned

Each parcel was evaluated using a 300 metre buffer from the

  • parcel. Using GIS the number of additional parcels within that

300 metre buffer excluding the evaluation unit itself was

  • determined. The fragmentation number was then ranked

according to the following table.

AR FACTOR - FRAGMENTATION

# of Lots Score # of Lots Score < = 10 additional lots =100 20 lots = 50 11 lots = 90 21 lots = 40 12 lots = 90 22 lots = 40 13 lots = 80 23 lots = 30 14 lots = 80 24 lots = 30 15 lots = 70 25 lots = 20 16 lots = 70 26 lots = 20 17 lots = 60 27 lots = 10 18 lots = 60 28 lots = 10 19 lots = 50 > = 29 lots = 0

  • Using ELC data that shows

land in agricultural production (2010) each Evaluation Unit was provided a score based

  • n the percentage of land

within that Evaluation Unit that was being used for agriculture

  • That percentage was then

applied to a simple scale using the percentage as the score

  • EXAMPLE: If 50% of the lot

was used for agricultural purposes the score would be 50.

  • Utilizing the same data as the previous factor, the GIS

program was able to calculate the percentage of the total land within one kilometre of the Evaluation Unit and then determine what proportion of that land was then used for agriculture purposes

  • The percentage of lands within one kilometre of the

evaluation units was then applied to a perfect score of 100 resulting in the score for the individual Evaluation Unit

  • Three potential conflicting land uses were identified by the

Review Committee: – Sensitive land uses (schools, places of worship and other institutional uses and parks) (33 % of 12.5% ) – Proximity to urban areas (33% of 12.5% ) – Proximity to major traffic arteries (33% of 12.5% )

  • The Evaluation Unit was scored based on its distance from an

urban area utilizing a two kilometer radius as having no impact or a 0 score. The scores were then calculated based

  • n the following distances:

less than 500 metres 500 metres to 1,000 metres 25% 1,001 metres to 1,500 metres 50% 1,501 to 2,000 metres 75% >2001 metres 100%

  • Determines the best

arrangement of values into different classes

  • Seeks to reduce the

variance within classes and to maximize the variance between classes.

  • After each Evaluation Unit is given its LEAR score, a Threshold

score and range is selected to identify a Recommended LEAR Prime Agricultural Area.

  • Based on statistical analysis that considers the patterns and

distributions of high scoring Evaluation Units.

  • A recommended Threshold score and range of “535-800” was

selected by the Review Committee.

  • The Threshold determines which lands may potentially be

considered as a Recommended LEAR Prime Agricultural Area.

  • Lands that score below the Threshold may retain or be

considered for a General Agriculture or Rural Area land use designation.

  • What is Minimum Distance Separation (MDS)?

– Odour separation calculation – Applied to new or expanding farm and non-farm uses – Amount of the separation distance based on:

  • Type of use
  • Intensity of use
  • How is it Implemented?

– Provincial Policy Statement – MDS Guidelines – Region and Town Official Plans

  • MDS I – Setbacks for new or expanding non-farm use
  • Based on type of non-farm use & intensity of use
  • MDS II – Setbacks for new or expanding livestock

barns and/or permanent manure storage

  • Based on type & number of livestock in barn and/or

manure storage capacity

  • Effective planning tool to mitigate land use conflicts

due to odour

  • It is appropriate for policy to be applied to both

livestock and non-farm uses Preliminary Recommendations:

  • More technical guidance is needed for municipalities

to apply and interpret MDS guidelines

  • Greater Flexibility should be considered for farms

close to urban areas to remain viable

  • Provincial Review of setbacks for some types of
  • utdoor

recreational uses to ensure not unnecessarily restrictive

Public Comment

  • Public comments are requested by April 30, 2014.
  • Peel Agricultural Advisory Working Group and LEAR Review Committee will

provide final recommendations to Region and Town Staff. LEAR Study

  • Reports on a recommended LEAR Prime Agricultural Area will be given to Town

and Region Councils.

  • Any proposed changes to the Prime Agricultural Area will require separate and

formal amendment process under the Planning act to amend the Town and Region’s Official Plans. MDS Review

  • Reports providing recommendations form the MDS review will be given to both

Town and Region Councils.

  • MDS Review recommendations will be used to inform Region and Town

comments on the next five year provincial review of MDS policies and guidelines. Stay informed - http://www.peelregion.ca/planning/paawg/lear-mds.htm
