CURRENT SITUATION
At a Special Council meeting held on October 24, 2019, Municipal Council gave 1st Reading to the new
Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law. The new planning documents include the area directly
outside Chester Village which is currently regulated by the Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy
and Land Use By-law. In order for the new planning documents to come into effect, Council must also
approve amendments to the Chester village Secondary Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law to reduce
the area regulated. This change will align the Chester Village Planning Area Boundary with the Chester
Village Municipal Boundary.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council give 1st Reading to the attached amendments to the Chester Village Secondary Planning
Strategy and Land Use By-law, and further that Council set a date for a Public Hearing for November 28,
2019 to be held in Municipal Council Chambers beginning at 8:45 a.m.
BACKGROUND
Comprehensive planning and zoning regulations were first introduced in Chester Village in 1976. Over
subsequent years and iterations of the planning documents, zoning and land-use control was expanded
beyond the Village Boundary to include Chester Commons and other surrounding residential areas.
This approach was reasonable at the time; however, subsequent plans have expanded comprehensive
zoning to all parts of the Municipality. This discrepancy between the Chester Village Municipal Boundary
and the Chester Village Planning Area Boundary is now an outdated remnant of these early plans and
often causes confusion for members of the public as to which set of planning documents regulate their
properties.
DISCUSSION
The attached amendments will serve to align the Chester Village Planning Area with the Chester Village
Municipal Boundary. The amendments will primarily changing the maps and schedules attached to the
Secondary Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law. Some zones, such as the Rural Zone, are removed
from the Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law as they are no longer utilized

APPENDIX A
The Municipality of the District of Chester
A BY-LAW AMENDING THE CHESTER VILLAGE SECONDARY PLANNING STRATEGY AND
LAND USE BY-LAW
Be it enacted by the Council of the Municipality of the District of Chester as follows:
Amend the Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law to facilitate the
adoption of a revised Municipal Planning Strategy and Land Use By-law, these amendments are
an interim measure to alter the Chester Village Planning Area Boundary prior to a complete
review of the Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy.
Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy Amendments:
The Chester Village Area Secondary Planning Strategy is amended as indicated below. Added
text is underlined. Deleted text is struck through.
2.2.3 This Planning Strategy provides a framework and a process to accommodate change in
development and land use in Chester Village and the surrounding area.
2.3.1 This Secondary Planning Strategy applies to the Chester Village Planning Area, which is an area
of land shown specifically on Maps 4 and 5, Future Land Use Maps. This area is and generally described
as following the Village of Chester Municipal boundary except along the coast where the Planning Area
Boundary extends 61m seaward to align with the Water Access Zone. The Chester Village Planning Area
previously included portions together with surrounding adjacent parts of Council Districts 3 and 7 as well
as several islands adjacent to the Village., including the watershed of Spectacle Lake. The Chester Village
Planning Area has been refined to accommodate the recently adopted Municipal Planning Strategy and
is an interim step prior to review and adoption of a new Chester Village Secondary Planning Strategy.
2.3.5 The following maps appended to this Planning Strategy form part of the Planning Strategy:
Map 1 Existing Land Use (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 2 Sanitary Sewer and Serviceable Area (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 3 Public Streets and Rights-of-way (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 4 Future Land Use (1:15,000 Scale)
Map 5 Future Land Use (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 6 Future Land Use Residential Areas (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 7 Design Control Areas (1:5,000 Scale)
Map 8 Watercourse Protection Areas (1:5,000 Scale)
2.3.6 The Future Land Use Map, which is attached to this Planning Strategy is a generalized
representation of the intended pattern of future land use in the Chester Village Planning Area, and is
presented in the form of three Map sheets of which Map 4 at 1:15,000 scale shows the entire area,
while Map 5 at 1:5,000 scale shows a portion of the area in greater detail, and Map 6 indicates areas
within which multi-unit residential uses are permitted.
3.3.3 To establish a Protected Watershed Zone in the Land Use By-law, with strict limits on
development within the zone, in order to protect the Spectacle Lake Watershed for purposes of future
water supply for the village.
3.6 POLICE, FIRE AND THE CHESTER VILLAGE COMMISSION
Police protection throughout the Municipality is provided by the Chester Detachment of the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police (R.C.M.P.). The detachment office is in Chester Village, but is expected to
move within a few years to a location on Highway 14 outside the Planning Area.
Fire protection throughout the area covered by this Planning Strategy is provided by the Chester
Volunteer Fire Department, an organization under the authority of the Village Commissioners of
Chester. The Village Commission itself was established in 1935 and became subject to the Village
Service Act in 1963, then subject to the Municipal Government Act in 1998. The boundaries of the
Village have not changed since 1935 and are shown on Map 4 Future Land Use Map. The Planning
Strategy applies to the Village and to areas adjacent to the Village. Council has made a practice of
appointing a member of the Village Commission to the Planning Advisory Committee and intends to
continue to seek the advice and assistance of the Village Commissioners in all matters directly affecting
the Village of Chester.
An application in 1998 to the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board to create a Town of Chester
proposed to incorporate the Village and a large surrounding area (the whole of Council District Three)
into a Town. The Review Board decision in 2002 was positive, but changes to the Municipal Government
Act required a plebiscite among affected residents. The plebiscite was held in early 2003 and the results
were negative. Various court actions on the matter were continuing at the time of writing.
Highway 3
Trunk #3, formerly the main route on the South Shore between Halifax and Yarmouth, passes through
the Planning Area and is characterized by a series of linear, low density, residential neighbourhoods
interspersed with clusters of highway-oriented business use. The Planning Strategy recognizes the
presence of both commercial and residential uses on Trunk #3 and contains measures to ensure that
these uses will continue to co-exist without conflict.
The Highway 3 Streetscape Study referred to in Policy 2.2.6 recognizes three commercial clusters along
Highway 3, surrounded and interspersed with residential nodes. It recommends that this pattern of
development should be preserved.
The first commercial cluster stretches from east of Pig Loop Road westerly to the Victoria Street
intersection. The study recognizes this as the commercial cluster most closely related to the residential
core of the village. It recommends the commercial growth and the street design in this area should be
treated as an integral part of the Village, with continuous sidewalks and commercial development that is
friendly to pedestrians.
The Highway 3 Streetscape report recognized two different commercial clusters, a Village commercial
cluster and a rural commercial cluster. Within the Chester Village Boundary the keeping of shipping
containers is not seen as an appropriate use due to the proximity to the Inner Architectural Control
Area.
The second commercial cluster extends from the Windjammer Motel area north to Collicut Building
Supplies. The study recommends this should be developed as a more rural cluster, with widened
highway shoulders to accommodate pedestrian traffic. The third commercial cluster centres on the
Robinsons Corner intersection of Trunk 14 and Highway 3. Most The majority of properties covered by
the second and third commercial clusters are located of this cluster is outside of the Chester Village
Planning Area.
Within these commercial clusters, the study recommends a suite of design guidelines to make sure that
development reinforces the tradition of architectural and landscape excellence of Chester.
Under the previous planning strategies of 1983 and 1992, much of the established residential area
abutting Highway 3 was designated as an area within which commercial development proposals could
be considered by development agreement. As with the comparable development agreement areas in
the Village Centre, however, this designation has been discontinued in this Revised Planning Strategy
due to controversies surrounding several development agreement proposals in the 1990s, and due to
the community wish for greater protection of residential property through exclusionary zoning. This
approach is reinforced by the public commentary received during the Highway 3 Streetscape Study,
which recommends that these residential areas be kept residential.
To ensure that the development along the Highway 3 corridor supports the community vision, the
Highway 3 Streetscape Study recommends comprehensive design guidelines which specify site
development standards, landscaping standards, and architectural standards. In addition to these
general guidelines for all development in the Highway 3 corridor, the study includes standards for
development of larger projects like the Chester Shore Mall. The recommendations of the study were
examined at length by the Chester Village Area Planning Advisory Committee and by Council during
2011. Minor adjustments were made and the results have been incorporated both into this Planning
Strategy and into the Land Use By-law.
In addition to the above mentioned commercial areas, there are two long-established commercial uses
located in residential areas, where the intention of Council and local residents is to preserve and
enhance the predominantly residential character of these areas. These include the old carriage shops
and stores at the intersection of Main and Prince Streets (86 Main and 156 Prince Streets), and the
former Rhymes (now Hiltz) autobody repair shop adjacent to 68 Haddon Hill Road. Instead of allowing
the non-conforming use provisions of the Municipal Government Act to restrict the continued use and
development of these sites, these areas have been designated as Special Commercial areas, with ranges
of commercial use specifically adapted to the historical land uses of each site.
While the Highway 3 corridor is governed by strict planning and architectural controls, Council
recognizes that there is some distinction in character between the village commercial cluster and the
more rural commercial cluster, as identified by the Highway 3 Streetscape Plan. Council recognizes that
the more rural commercial clusters require a more permissive policy approach. Specifically, Council
wishes to allow businesses the ability to use shipping containers for storage, in some areas of the
Highway Commercial Zone. This can allow for business expansion at a reasonable cost, which is good for
economic development. In order to control the appearance of the Highway 3 Area, the Land Use By-law
shall identify standards for shipping containers being used for storage.
As identified through many forms, architectural and site design controls that encourage traditional
community design are especially important in the Village of Chester. For that reason, shipping
containers shall not be allowed within the Village of Chester boundary.
4.3.8 Council shall create the Rural Commercial Overlay area which shall encompass all Highway
Commercial (HC) zoned land that lays outside the Village of Chester Boundary but is within the Village
Area Planning Boundary. The Rural Commercial Overlay area shall be shown on Map A-3 of the Land Use
By-law: Rural Commercial Overlay Area.
4.3.9 The Land Use By-law shall include provisions to allow shipping containers, for storage by non-
residential uses, within the Rural Commercial Overlay Area.
4.3.10 Shipping containers shall not be permitted within the Village of Chester boundary., and within
the Chester Village Planning Area, shall only be permitted within the Rural Commercial Overlay which
shall be shown on the Chester Village Planning Area Land Use By-law Map A-3: Rural Commercial
Overlay Area.
4.3.11 The Land Use By-law shall contain standards for shipping containers, including: a limit of 1
shipping container per property; establishing setbacks; and creating screening standards.
4.5 RURAL DEVELOPMENTS
A major portion of the land included in the Planning Area is not part of the identifiable urban core, but
has more of the nature of a rural fringe area. This rural area has a strong residential component, but it
exists in the context of a mixture of other land uses, including agriculture, forestry, pits and quarries,
small commercial enterprises, and large land holdings with little or no development. The Municipal
Planning Strategies adopted in 1976 and 1983 divided this area between a largely undeveloped "Rural
Resource Zone" and the same Single-Family Residential zone as was applied to the Village Core.
Residents of the areas that were zoned residential, particularly in the Commons area, expressed their
dissatisfaction with the restrictions of the single-family zoning, and Municipal staff found frequent minor
violations of these land use restrictions.
During the 1991 review of the Planning Strategy Council developed the intention to apply to these areas
land use control which would recognize the traditional mixture of land uses existing in the area,
providing for small-scale agricultural, forestry, commercial and industrial uses in conjunction with
residential uses. Under the 1992 Planning Strategy, these areas were given a rural designation and a
rural zoning classification. A mix of residential and non-residential uses were permitted in the area as-
of-right up to a maximum size or threshold that reflected the existing scale and character of
development in the communities. Uses permitted as-of-right were required to meet minimum
development standards that addressed basic, practical planning issues such as parking and setback of
buildings from property lines. Commercial, industrial, residential and institutional developments that
exceeded the threshold were permitted by development agreement. Certain uses with the potential to
be hazardous or create land use conflicts, such as bulk storage of petroleum products, scrap metal
operations, etc., were also permitted only by development agreement, regardless of their scale. Yet
another category of hazardous developments, such as smelting and ore refining, tanning, asphalt
production, etc., were completely prohibited.
During the review of the 1992 Planning Strategy, however, the public, through the Area Advisory
Committee, expressed dissatisfaction with the uncertainty inherent in the development agreement
process and recommended that planning policy for the Rural area should revert to a more predictable,
as-of-right zoning scheme. Accordingly, in the 2004 Revised Planning Strategy, the thresholds
established under the 1992 strategy continued to be the limits of as-of-right agricultural, forestry,
commercial and industrial developments in the Rural area. Developments which exceeded these limits
were subject to site plan approvals. Land use conflicts caused by small commercial development led
Council in 2009 to the conclusion that all commercial, industrial and institutional developments should
be permitted only under the site plan approval process. Potentially hazardous uses will now be
prohibited rather than made possible by development agreement. Residential multi-unit buildings over
four dwelling units but no larger than twelve units, which were previously permitted by development
agreement, will continue to be permitted by site plan approval, subject to the giving of notice to
abutting property owners.
Where there are existing or developing residential neighbourhoods within the rural designation and
zone, the Revised Planning Strategy, like the 1992 Strategy, also enables these areas to be re-zoned to a
residential zoning classification that prohibits or restricts non-residential land use activities.
The Highway 3 Streetscape Study referred to in Policy 2.2.6 identified the long-term residential
development potential of the eastern end of the Highway 3 corridor, which is now in one ownership and
run as a hobby farm. To encourage this long-term vision, a new Rural 2 Zone is introduced for this area
which allows the continued farm operation and allows land use to change to residential land uses
4.5.12 The agricultural area at the east end of the Highway 3 corridor is designated “Rural 2” as shown
on Maps 4 and 5 Future Land Use Maps, and the corresponding area is zoned “Rural 2” in the Land Use
By-law. Within this designation and zone, land uses will be restricted to the agricultural uses and
encouraged to change over time to residential land uses, in accordance with the vision expressed in the
Highway 3 Streetscape Study referred to in policy 2.2.6.
4.5.13 The area designated Rural 2 is also designated as a site plan approval area where residential
land uses will be permitted subject to site plan approval in accordance with the site plan approval
criteria contained in the Land Use By-law.
4.6.1 The watershed of Spectacle Lake, as well as the upper watershed of Mill Brook, are designated
as a Protected Watershed, as shown on Map 4 and Map 5, Future Land Use Maps, within which land use
will be strictly controlled so as to prevent, as far as possible, any deterioration in the quality or quantity
of the lake water and to preserve its potential as a source of supply for a central water system.
4.6.2 Within the Protected Watershed identified in Policy 4.6.1 the Land Use By-law establishes a
Protected Watershed zone where residential uses are restricted; where commercial, and industrial uses
are prohibited; where forestry, agricultural (other than intensive livestock raising) and similar rural land
uses will be permitted; where subdivision on private roads and rights-of-way will not be permitted;
where it is Council’s policy to restrict the construction of new public roads and where developers will be
required both to prepare detailed plans for construction to show measures for protecting the quality of
the lakewater and to carry insurance to cover the costs of environmental restoration in the event of
contamination of the watercourse.
4.12 CONSERVATION AREAS
During the process of reviewing and re-writing this Planning Strategy, there was considerable discussion
in the press and in community organizations about the need to preserve islands within the expanse of
Mahone Bay. Some landowners made arrangements with preservation organizations such as the Nova
Scotia Nature Trust to keep all or part of various islands from development. In some cases, direct
donations of land were proposed and in other cases conservation easements were under discussion.
In order to provide support to the intended preservation of the natural landscapes of the islands, it is
the policy of Council to establish an appropriate zone for these conservation lands and to apply this zone
to lands which have been dedicated by the owners for conservation purposes. Council recognises that
this designation could be applied to lands other than the islands where the landowner recognises the
unique and valuable characteristics of a particular piece of land.
This gives rise to the following policies:
4.12.1 Lands which have been dedicated by the owners for the conservation of the natural habitat
either by conveyance to conservation organizations, by conveyance to government bodies, or by the
establishment of conservation easements will be designated as Conservation Areas, as shown on Map 4
and Map 5, Future Land Use Maps, within which land use will be strictly controlled so as to carry out the
intention to conserve the natural environment.
4.12.2 Within the Conservation Areas identified in Policy 4.12.1 the Land Use By-law establishes a
Conservation Zone within which land uses will be limited to maintenance of the natural environment
and related educational programs.
