1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 On November 1, 2004 staff presented the Port Darlington Waterfront Park
Conceptual Master Plan to the Port Darlington Community Association. On
November 4, 2004 staff presented the Plan to residents of the Port Darlington
community at the Bowmanville Community Forum. During these meetings, while
there were questions regarding the details, timing and cost of the land acquisition
and park development there was general consensus that the park is desirable
and will be a highly used municipal asset.
2.0 PURPOSE
2.1 As reported to General Purpose and Administration Committee in November,
2004 (attachment 1) staff had developed a conceptual Master Plan for the Port
Darlington Waterfront Park. The conceptual Master Plan was approved by
Council at its meeting on November 8, 2004.
2.2 The East Beach portion of the Master Plan was amended by an addendum report
on November 14, 2005 by Resolution #C-509-05. This addendum addressed the
feedback staff received from the Port Darlington Harbour Company and Wiggers
Custom Yachts, and citizen feedback received at public reviews in November
2004 making modifications to the conceptual layout of the park (attachment 2).
2.3 In December 2005 Council received Report PSD-146-05 which informed them of
the notification the Municipality received from the Ministry of Natural Resources
in November of 2005. The report alerted Council to the change in status of the
Bowmanville Marsh to a Provincially Significant Wetland (PSW) and indicated
that staff would review the implications of this change with CLOCA and other
approval agencies.

2.4 The purpose of this report is to recommend approval of the updated West Beach
Conceptual Master Plan for Port Darlington Waterfront Park (attachment 3) in
light of the review by staff and comments from approval agencies in response to
the PSW designation.
3.0 MASTER PLAN REVISIONS
3.1 The park elements proposed on the original conceptual master plan were based
on the information available at the time it was prepared. The first addendum to
the East Beach Conceptual Master Plan addressed concerns raised by Port
Darlington Harbour Company, Wiggers Custom Yachts Limited and residents.
3.2 The park elements proposed on the original Conceptual Master Plan for the West
Beach included a dune restoration area, volleyball courts, sun shelters,
washroom facilities, canoe and kayak launch and parking area.
3.3 The designation of the PSW affects the proposed activities on the northern
upland area of the West Beach plan. In addition, we have had our biologist
review the sand dune area and determine a more appropriate boundary for the
restoration. These factors affect the conceptual layout presented to Council in
November 2004.
3.4 The plan revisions include; shifting the parking lot to the south outside of the
limits of the PSW, and the elimination of the volleyball courts from this section of
the West Beach while increasing the dune restoration area. The canoe and
kayak launch if desired will have to be from a floating dock and may need to be
shifted to another area of the marsh. The proposed walkway leading north from
the park through the marsh has also been deleted.
REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM #2 TO EGD-50-04
PAGE 5
3.5 The revised West Beach Conceptual Master Plan has allowed us to prepare a
more refined cost estimate for use in a future capital budget. The estimated cost
for the landscape elements proposed for the West Beach is approx. $1,300,000.
This figure does not include the cost for any buildings or structures that would
require a building permit, such as the concession/ washroom building.
4.0 CONCLUSION
4.1 It is recommended that Council approve the revised West Beach Conceptual
Master Plan for Port Darlington Waterfront Park, and refer the project to the
Capital Budget.
4.2 Once the lands have been acquired and the detailed construction drawings
prepared, application will be made for clearances, approvals, and permits for the
floating dock, washroom/concession building, and parking lot from CLOCA, and
other applicable approval agencies. The plan will also be subject to further public
review and the site plan process.

1.0 PURPOSE
1.1 As reported to General Purpose and Administration Committee on November 1,
2004 (Attachment 1) staff had developed a conceptual master plan for the Port
Darlington Waterfront Park. T he conceptual master plan, was approved by
Council at its meeting of November 8, 2004.
1.2 Port Darlington Harbour Company and Wiggers Custom Yachts have indicated
that all of their property on the East Beach is required for their business. In
addition to the feedback from the Port Darlington Harbour Company and Wiggers
Custom Yachts, the citizen feedback received during public reviews in November
2004 has assisted in the preparation of the revised plan.
1.3 The purpose of this report is to recommend an update to the east beach portion
of the Port Darlington Waterfront Park Conceptual Master Plan (attachment 2) in
light of staffs review of these comments and decisions taken by Council
respecting COPA #39.
2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 At the October 25th, 2004 meeting of Council, staff were authorized to prepare
appropriate amendments to the Port Darlington Neighbourhood Secondary Plan,
among other things to facilitate the creation of larger, more usable park space as
a focal point on the waterfront. A statutory Public Meeting was held on
November 15, 2004 at which a number of residents appeared before committee
with questions as to the details of the park plan and traffic management issues.
2.2 On November 1, 2004, staff presented the Port Darlington Waterfront Park
Conceptual Master Plan to the Port Darlington Community Association. On
. November 4, 2004, staff presented the Plan to residents of the Port Darlington
community at the Bowmanville Community Forum. During these meetings, it
appeared that while there are questions regarding the details, timing and cost of

.
the park development there is general consensus that the park is desirable and
will be a highly used municipal asset.
2.3 On January 17'h, 2005 the Municipality approved an amendment to the Port
Darlington Neighbourhood Secondary Plan (COPA #39) which provides for the
shifting of East Beach Road north from its present location. This will reduce the
area now designated Village Commercial by the Secondary Plan which is in
place. Two amendments have been made to COPA #39 to address objections
made by Port Darlington Harbour Company, Wiggers Custom Yachts and Mr.
Glen Ransom (By-laws 2005-070 and 2005-101). The revised plan
. recommended in this report is consistent with COPA #39.
3.0 MASTER PLAN REVISIONS
3.1 The park elements proposed on the original master plan for the East Beach
include a large central gathering node constructed near the waters edge at the
south extension of Port Darlington Road. This space would be used for special
events such as concerts in the park, fireworks displays, art exhibits, etc. A
nautically themed children's playground, water play area, washroom building,
and concession stand are also proposed for this portion of the park. Large open
green spaces would be provided for picnicking or informal play.
All of these elements have been preserved in the revised Conceptual Master
Plan by shifting eastward the proposed park uses that encroached on the lands
owned by Port Darlington Harbour Company and Wiggers Custom Yachts. The
shift does not delete any of the significant features of the Conceptual Master
Plan.
The plan has also been revised to include park uses on the existing municipal
lands on the west side of Port Darlington Road. They add approximately .64 ha
to the East Beach portion of the park. The addition of these lands to the master
plan allows for the relocation of parking away from the remaining residential area
Addendum to EGD-50-04
Page 4
on East Beach Road. The proposed parking lot on the original master plan was
one of the most significant concerns expressed by residents of East Beach Road.
Moving it away from the residential area will free up more green space close to
the lake and will also reduce vehicular traffic in the vicinity of the remaining
homes on East Beach Road. The plan also illustrates the existing alignment of
East Beach Road and Port Darlington Road as well as the proposed realignment
of East Beach Road.
4.0 CONCLUSIONS
4.1 It is recommended that Council approve the revised East Beach portion of the
Port Darlington Waterfront Park Conceptual Master Plan.
