Kizell given wetland designation Ruling may trump development plans for Beaver Pond SPARKS FLY 10

OUT OF THE DARKNESS Part two of a Metroland Media three-part series looks at the issue of youth suicide.

LAURA MUELLER laura.mueller@metroland.com

A ruling designating the Kizell pond area a provincially significant wetland and an important habitat for endangered species will delay and force changes to the contentious Beaver Pond development. The designation limits the amount of stormwater that can flow into the wetland from neighbouring developments, such as the KNL development, now in the early stage of construction. Opponents of the KNL development, a partnership between Urbandale and Richcraft Homes, suggest the additional protections could make it too costly for the developer to build. But the city could also choose to honour existing development agreements that date back to 2003, or to provide some leniency that would still allow the development to use the Kizell area for some additional stormwater drainage, said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. “They (KNL) would have to redesign it. It wouldn’t stop it,” Wilkinson said, adding that some drainage is allowed in some other provincially significant wetlands in the city. She said one option could be that the development would have higher-density areas to make up for potential changes in stormwater management requirements. Another option that could be investigated is diverting stormwater to drain into Shirley’s Brook.
