Municipality of Clarington Report PSD -093-17 Report Overview Page 2 There are two initiatives that have led to the consideration of the renaming of a portions of South Service Road: x the future extension of Lake Road from its current terminus to Bennett Road; and x The development of the Lakebreeze subdivision in the Port Darlington Neighbourhood which has resulted in relocation of the South Service Road access to four waterfront properties. This report outlines staff's proposal for renaming portion of South Service Road but retaining the street name and addresses for the waterfront properties. 1. Discussion 1.1 There are two segments to the South Service Road as shown on Figure 1: x The east -west segment runs parallel to Highway 401; x The north -south segment runs from Highway 401 to Lake Ontario in the same alignment as Lamb Road to the north of Highway 401 1.2 In 2014 Council took the initiative to extend Lake Road from its then eastern terminus to the north -south leg of South Service Road. Some of these lands have been sold and industrial development will soon occur. In addition, development applications are expected in the near future on the long standing industrial plan of subdivision 40M-1921 east of the north -south leg of South Service Road which will further extend Lake Road. 1.3 Lake Road is proposed to be extended from its current terminus at the north -south leg of South Service Road to Bennett Road in 2018. This is shown in green and purple on Figure 1. When Lake Road is extended to Bennett Road, the east -west leg of South Service Road will be redundant and no longer used as a public road, with the exception of the easterly segment, which will form part of the alignment of Lake Road extension. At that time, the Municipality will decide whether to sell the road allowance to the Ministry of Transportation for the future interchange and highway widenings and/or portions to the abutting industrial owners to the south, where appropriate. 1.4 A small portion of South Service Road at the intersection with Bennett Road (shown in purple on Figure 1) will need to be renamed to Lake Road at that time.

Both the Region of Durham and Clarington Official Plan's propose Lambs Road to become an interchange with Highway 401 in the future. As a result it is recommended that the portion of the north -south portion of South Service Road shown in yellow on Figure 1 be renamed to Lambs Road. It is proposed that the renaming occur at approximately the time as Lake Road is extended from its current terminus to Bennett Road and the east -west portion of South Service Road is no open to the public. 1.6 The development of the Lakebreeze subdivision in the Port Darlington area requires the construction of new arterial and collector roads with sanitary and municipal water services to facilitate traffic movement and servicing of the area. This is causing some changes to the road network and street names as noted in Report PSD -81-17. In addition, further changes are occurring with the development of the industrial lands along Lake Road and its future extension to Bennett Road. 1.7 In the detailed design of the Lakebreeze subdivision, the existing South Service Road, south of Port Darlington Road and servicing the four properties at the waterfront can no longer be used due to grades and intersection configuration. As a result, a new public street a few metres to the east of the existing road is proposed to access those residences. It was initially proposed to give this new road access a different name. The two permanent residents expressed their objection to the new road name. Staff reconsidered this matter and will now consider this a relocation of the existing road so that addresses to the existing properties remain. In the end, this will be the only segment that retains the name South Service Road. 1.8 There are no existing property addresses affected by this street renaming. All of the industrial lands either have a current Bennett Road address or they have or will be assigned a Lake Road address. The only other properties affected by the street renaming will be new lots created within the Lakebreeze plan of subdivision.

Conclusion Both the industrial and residential development occurring in and near the Port Darlington Neighbourhood have led to the need for road closures and consideration of street - renaming.
