MINUTES Resolution #GPA-028-07 Moved by Councillor Robinson, seconded by Councillor Hooper THAT the minutes of the regular meeting of the General Purpose and Administration Committee held on January 8, 2007, be approved. CARRIED. 301 General Purpose and Administration Committee Minutes January 22, 2007 PRESENTATION Dan Armeno, Project Manager - Highway 407 East, Ministry of the Environment and Doug Allingham, President, Totten Sims Hubicki Associates appeared before the Committee to provide an update on the 407 East Environmental Assessment. They reported on a series of public information sessions held in November/December, 2006 whereby alternative routes to Highway 407 were identified and presented to interested stakeholders. Mr. Allingham stated that approximately 70 forms were received at the public information sessions resulting in general support to the alternatives displayed, recognition of the need for the Highway 407 extension, concerns about property issues, loss of agricultural land and protection of the Greenbelt and Oak Ridges Moraine. Over the next six to eight months a short list of alternative routes will be evaluated based on criteria from interested stakeholders and would result in a preferred route being established. A commitment has not been received from the ETR concerning ownership of the extension west of Brock Road. The study forecast to 2031 presented significant improvements to transit and regional roads, identified unstructured travel demand such as car pooling, HOB lanes and strategies to manage travel without having to build more roads or provide more transit services. Mr. Armeno stated that the MOE and consultants are fully committed to working with all stakeholders. Carlos Salazar, Manager of Community Planning & Design, Municipality of Clarington appeared before the Committee along with Andrea Gabor, Urban Strategies, Ron Albright, TSH, and Jeff Climans, The Climans Group concerning the Science and Technology Park in Clarington. Carlos provided a brief history of the development of this area and described the two projects; being the Technology Park and the Energy Park, and highlighted their geographic boundaries. This area will enable Clarington to cluster these types of industries. Andrea reported on the project phases and stated that currently they are in Phase 4. They are developing the physical context which will develop into a secondary plan for the ultimate development of a prestige park. This park has the potential to diversify Clarington's employment base and has significant implications for putting Clarington on map for employment from a technological point of view. The vision for the park includes capacity for 50 buildings. Holburn is already developed there and creates a anchor for this development. Ron Albright discussed the servicing of the park including sewers, water, storm water and transportation. All existing road infrastructure will have to be upgraded. Jeff Climans believes that the project is significant and should be a regional landmark. A detailed market analysis was . conducted and concluded that less than 10% of available lands within Durham Region is of the same caliber which makes this site distinguishable. He encouraged the Municipality to recognize the asset we have and to protect it and plan for it through Master Plan, create a buffer and to maintain the proposed scale of the park. .2. 302 General Purpose and Administration Committee Minutes January 22,2007 Isabel Little, Planner, Municipality of Clarington provided the Committee with a presentation regarding the who, what, why and how on Community Improvement Plans, and most specifically the proposed Newcastle Village Community Improvement Plan. Community Improvement Plans (CIP) have been previously approved for Bowmanville and Orono. Isabel showed before and after pictures of improvements achieved in Orono and Bowmanville. She highlighted the proposed Terms of Reference for Community Focus Group and stated that Veridian has agreed to participate on the Group. As in past practice, ads will be placed in the local newspapers seeking volunteers to sit on the Community Focus Group. At the conclusion of the Study, which is expected to run for one year, recommendations will be presented to Council for approval and then ultimately forwarded to the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing for approval. DELEGATIONS Valentine Lovekin appeared before the Committee with respect to Report PSD-011-07. As the acting Chair of the Newcastle BIA, Mr. Lovekin stated that BIA Council fully . supports the Newcastle Village Community Improvement Plan and encourages it's success. Mr. Lovekin stated that BIA members serve enthusiastically and thanked the municipality for embracing this initiative. Councillor Novak chaired this portion of this meeting. PUBLIC MEETING (a) Subject: Applicant: Report: Application to Amend the Zoning By-law 84-63 Gerr Holdings Limited PSD.008.07 Richard Holy, Senior Planner, Planning Services, provided a verbal report supported by a PowerPoint presentation pertaining to Report PSD-008-07. Robert Banik, CAW Legal Services, appeared before Committee on behalf of Doug Hoogeboom and family. Mr. Banik stated the Hoogeboom family have been local property owners, just north of the subject property since 1989. Mr. Ban ik stated that during the initial stages of area development, the property was used to store construction equipment but once development was complete, Cowan Pontiac Buick started using the property as a parking lot where it has remained for this use. Mr. Banik stated his client opposes this application because dust generated by traffic in the gravel parking lot, car headlights shining directly into his client's home, constant vehicular traffic causing excessive noise, inappropriate use of the property for public parking, refuse from Cowan Pontiac Buick blowing into his c1ii:mt's backyard, the three-year timeframe associated to the amendment and the uncertainty of the future development of the lot. Mr. Banik stated his client sent Gerr Holdings a letter, voicing their concerns, and was advised by Gerr Holdings that this use would only be temporary. Mr. Banik stated his client complained to Cowan Pontiac Buick who advised they would look into .3. 303 General Purpose and Administration Committee Minutes January 22, 2007 the situation and to date, there has been no recommendation on how to address the issues. Joe Gerrits, President, Gerr Holdings Limited appeared before Committee and stated the property has been used for parking in the past. He also advised that the property development proposal application, which was submitted to the Municipality in 2000, was deemed not feasible, and thus has been put on hold. In the interim, Gerr Holdings Limited was approached by Cowan Pontiac Buick to use the property on a temporary basis as a parking lot, while undergoing expansion of their existing facility. Mr. Gerrits stated he received a letter from Doug Hoogeboom's solicitor recently, but had been away until just recently, and therefore had not had an opportunity to respond. Mr. Gerrits stated the use of the property is similar to what it has been used in the last number of years and he does not anticipate this changing. Mr. Cowan appeared before Committee and stated that employees of Cowan Pontiac Buick only use the parking lot between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday and there is no movement or activity from the parking lot during the day. He reported there are no more than 30 vehicles parked in the lot at one time. Mr. Cowan advised that the lot is not secure enough for use as an overflow parking area for new vehicles which could potentially free up space in the main parking lot for employee parking. No one spoke in support of Report PSD-008-07. (b) Subject: Applicant: Report: Application to Amend the Zoning By-law 84-63 Hope Fellowship Christian Reformed Church PSD.009.07 Carlo Pellarin, Manager of Development Review, Planning Services, provided a verbal report supported by a PowerPoint presentation pertaining to Report PSD-009-07. Frank Feldman, Cedardale Realty Holdings, appeared before Committee and stated they are the owners of the property west of the subject property. Mr. Feldman stated that the zoning is designated for industrial uses and not for a place of worship. Mr. Feldman explained that expanding the church would more than triple the size of the existing building resulting in bringing the structure closer to the Cedardale property. Mr. Feldman stated they do not support the application as currently proposed. He believes this zoning amendment would impede future industrial use development of the Cedardale property and asked that the application be referred back to staff for further consideration. No one spoke in support of Report PSD-009-07. .4. 304 General Purpose and Administration Committee Minutes January 22, 2007 John DeWilde, Hope Fellowship Christian Reformed Church appeared before the Committee and stated they would like to work with Cedardale Realty Holdings but also stressed they do not want to lose any momentum and are hopeful the process will continue to move forward.

The applicant requested an increase in the lot coverage from forty (40) percent to fifty (50) percent and a forty five (45) percent maximum lot coverage for the dwelling on all the lots. The additional five (5) percent will allow individual homeowners to erect accessory buildings if they so desire without requiring an application for minor variance. The applicant is also requesting that uncovered decks be allowed to project 2.5 metres into the rear yards rather than the 1.5 metres currently permitted. This request is only for Lots 8 to 16, which back onto the Tooley Creek valley. 3.2 The Plan of Subdivision was draft approved by the Region of Durham on January 8th, 2000. The applicant has entered into a subdivision agreement with the Municipality. All securities have been received and valleylands have been transferred. The registration of the plan will likely take place in the first quarter of this year. 4.0 SITE CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING LAND USES 4.1 The subject lands are relatively flat, with the most westerly portion sloping towards the Tooley Creek valley. The storm, sanitary and water services have 602 REPORT NO.: PSD-016-07 PAGE 3 been installed and the road, being the extension of McLellan Court, has been paved. The lots have also been rough graded. 4.2 Surrounding Land Uses: North - woodlot West - creek valley and woodlot associated with Tooley Creek East - single detached dwellings South - single detached dwellings 5.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY 5.1 Provincial Policv Statement The Provincial Policy Statement states that in Settlement Areas appropriate development standards should be promoted which facilitate intensification redevelopment and compact form, while maintaining appropriate levels of public health and safety. This plan of subdivision was draft approved for single family detached dwellings in 2000, prior to the Provincial Policy Statement. The development is utilizing nearby infrastructure and is outside of the Tooley Creek valleylands. As such, the development is consistent with the intent of the Provincial Policy Statement. 5.2 Provincial Growth Plan The subdivision was granted draft approval prior to the Provincial Growth Plan. However, the Growth Plan does require new growth to be directed to the built~up areas of the community. The rezoning application does not conflict with the Growth Plan. 6.0 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 6.1 Durham Reqion Official Plan The lands are designated Living Area within the Durham Regional Official Plan. Lands designated as Living Area permit the development of residential areas, incorporating the widest possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure. The application conforms. 6.2 Clarinoton Official Plan The subject lands are designated Urban Residential in the Clarington Official Plan. The use of lands within the Urban Residential designation. shall be predominately for single and semi-detached housing. Prior to draft approval, an Environmental Impact Study was undertaken to determine development limits and appropriate buffers to the Farewell Creek valley. Plan of Subdivision 18T- 603 REPORT NO.: PSD-016-07 PAGE 4 98012 was draft approved some seven years ago and conforms with the applicable Official Plan policies. 7.0 ZONING BY-LAW 7.1 The subject lands are currently zoned "Urban Residential Type (R1) Zone" and "Urban Residential Exception (R2-4) Zone". The zone boundary follows land ownership prior to the approval of the plan of subdivision and bisects 5 of the 16 . lots, so that one half of the plan is zoned (R1) and the remainder is zoned (R2-4). An amendment to the Zoning By-law is required to put the five (5) lots in question into one zone. In addition, the applicant has requested an increase in lot coverage and for the deck projection on the lots backing onto the Tooley Creek valleylands. 8.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 8.1 Public Notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject site. A public notice sign was installed on the subject site fronting onto the existing opened portion of McLellan Court. 8.2 As of the writing of this report, staff have received one phone call from an area resident who inquired about the potential for similar development on Islay Court, which is north of the subject site. 9.0 AGENCY COMMENTS 9.1 The application was circulated to various departments and agencies for comment. 9.2 Both the Region of Durham and the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority have offered no objection to the proposed rezoning. 9.3 The Engineering Services Department has noted that the proposed increase in lot coverage to 50% has a potential to increase the storm sewer co-efficient for the existing storm sewers. The applicant's engineer has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Engineering Services Department, that the existing storm sewers within the tributary watershed area have adequate capacity to accommodate the post-development drainage from the subject subdivision. 10.0 STAFF COMMENTS 10.1 The applicant is requesting an increase in the lot coverage from forty (40) percent to fifty (50) percent with forty five (45) percent for the dwelling for all the lots. The additional five (5) percent can allow individual homeowners to erect 604 REPORT NO.: PSD-016-07 PAGE 5 accessory buildings. The applicant is also requesting that uncovered decks be allowed to project 2.5 metres into the rear yard for Lots 8 to 16, which lookout onto the Tooley Creek valley. 10.2 The lots are considered wide shallow lots. The lot frontages are approximately 16 metres, rather than the 12 metres minimum required in the R2 zone, and are slightly shallower, being 29 metres rather than conventional lot depths of 31 metres or greater. The wide shallow lot results in a larger house footprint and a greater house presence along .the street frontage. To ensure that the garage does not dominate the house and the overall streetscape, the garage doors shall be allowed to project no more than 0.6 metres from the dwelling's front wall. 10.3 The Zoning By-law permits deck projections to be a maximum of 1.5 metres into the rear yard. For lots 8 to 16, the decks will be elevated above the grade, and will be used as an amenity area. By increasing the deck projection into the rear yard of up to 2.5 metres, it allows the homeowners to have a greater area to put deck furniture on and enjoy views to the valley. 10.4 The Finance Department advises that there are no outstanding taxes on this property. 11.0 CONCLUSIONS 11.1 Provided there are no significant issues raised at the Public Meeting, staff respectfully recommend that the proposed amendment to By-law 84-63 be APPROVED, as shown on Attachment 2.

The sign was posted 28 days prior to the public meeting date. 4.2 As a result of the public notification process, to date, the Planning Services Department has received one telephone inquiry from a potential lot purchaser. 611 REPORT NO.: PSD-017-07 PAGE 3 5.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY 5.1 Provincial Policv Statement The proposal when built will round out the Hamlet of Tyrone in its northwest quadrant. This is consistent with the Statement's requirement for settlement areas to be the focus of growth and for their vitality and regeneration to be promoted. The proposal is not a Hamlet expansion but instead represents development within the hamlet limits. 5.2 Greenbelt Plan Development within hamlets such as Tyrone, identified in local Official Plans, is not subject to the policies of the Greenbelt Plan. The Clarington Official Plan policies govern the development of new lots within the existing boundary. The Greenbelt Plan permits infill and intensification of hamlets subject to appropriate water and sewage services. 6.0 OFFICIAL PLANS 6.1 Reoional Official Plan The Regional Official Plan designates the subject property as within the hamlet symbol given its designation in the local (Clarington) Official Plan. This proposal conforms. 6.2 Clarinoton Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject property as Hamlet Residential. The proposed use conforms. This amendment to draft approved plan of subdivision application was accompanied by a comprehensive report on: analysis of the area's hydrogeological regime, assessment of both the long-term suitability of the soil for private sewage disposal (septic systems) and surface drainage. This report was subjected to a peer review process conducted by a consultant working for the Region and in short, the findings were validated. 7.0 ZONING BY-LAW 7.1 Within Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 of the former Town of Newcastle, the subject property is zoned "Holding - Residential Hamlet ((H)RH) Zone" with the exception of the front or east end of the subdivision road allowance which is "Residential Hamlet (RH) Zone". This proposal conforms. 8.0 AGENCY COMMENTS 8.1 The application to amend the Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision was circulated to various agencies and other departments by the Planning. Services Department. Clarington Emergency and Fire Services, the Clarington Building Division, the public school board and Rogers Cable had no objections. Other comments received to date are as follows. 612 REPORT NO.: PSD-017-07 PAGE 4 8.2 The separate school board requested safe pedestrian routes and street crossings as well as traffic planning to facilitate school bus movements. 8.3 Clarington Operations Department noted that in the Venton Court Subdivision, directly east of this proposal there is an on going drainage problem and there is a concern that this development may contribute further to the stormwater issues that exist to the east. It would be expected that allstormwater will be addressed on the proposed site. The applicant has submitted a revised Amending Draft Plan, a revised preliminary lot grading plan and an explanatory cover letter, all of which are in re-circulation to the few agencies/departments that had concerns, including Clarington Operations Department. 8.4 The Regional Health Department noted the Gibson and Associates .Report is unclear about what is to be done with the existing dug wells on the down-gradient adjacent existing lots. Regional Health is working with Regional Planning to formulate the Region's revised Conditions of Draft Approval. 8.5 Clarington Engineering Services Department required a single 5.0 metre x 5.0 metre sight triangle on the south side of the intersection of Street A and Liberty Street. A triangle is not required on the north side of the intersection due to a previous road dedication. The Department noted the applicant proposes to relocate the entrance to the residence on the southwest corner of Street 'A' and Liberty St. N. Written confirmation of their concurrence must be submitted. A boulevard retaining wall is proposed for the south side of the internal street situated adjacent to an existing residential property. Boulevard retaining walls are generally not permitted and alternative design options should be considered. A significant amount of drainage water from the subject lands will be conveyed onto private property to the northeast. It is not clear if a drainage easement has been secured that will properly accommodate this drainage water. Additional engineering details will be required for the works that will be constructed within the drainage easement. There are existing historic drainage problems downstream of this development. The applicants engineer must demonstrate that the post development drainage that is conveyed onto adjacent private property and the Liberty Street North road allowance will be restricted to pre-development levels and will not exacerbate the existing problem. The applicant has recently submitted a revised Amending Draft Plan, a revised preliminary lot grading plan and an explanatory cover letter, all of which have been re-circulated to the few agencies/departments that had concerns, including Clarington Engineering Services. 8.6 Central Lake Ontario Conservation notes Authority staff supports the plan of subdivision in principle but requires additional detailed information on the design of the drainage easement from Lots 5 and 6 through an easement on private property east to Liberty Street North. The easement must be adequate for 100 year storms despite the reduction in land area that will be drained by it. The revised circulation is expected to address this issue. It is understood drainage from roof leaders, front yards and the road will be conveyed to the subdivision's road allowance ditch but not the Liberty Street North ditch. Instead it will be conveyed across Liberty Street and through the Venton Court subdivision. Design details confirming the adequacy of this scheme must be providec;l. 613 REPORT NO.: PSO-017-07 PAGE 5 The side yard swale of Lots 2 and 3 outlets toward private property whereas it should go to Tyrone Community Park property and the existing drainage channel. The Authority requests Conditions of Draft Approval that require, prior to on~site work or final approval of the plan, the submission to the Authority and Clarington and obtain approval from same, for reports on: conveyance of stormwater in accordance with provincial guidelines, proposal impact on water quality for fish and wildlife after mitigation, erosion and sedimentation control in accordance with provincial guidelines and the Canada Fisheries Act. The Authority requires the subdivision agreement stipulate the Owner is to maintain all stormwater and erosion/sedimentation structures in a manner satisfactory to the Authority and is to provide 48 hours notice prior to on-site work. 9.0 STAFF COMMENTS 9.1 The number of residential units is being reduced from nine (9) to seven (7). Planning and other regulatory standards have changed since the Amendment to Draft Approval permitting nine (9) units was approved (1989) and to help facilitate this subdivision's final approval, the applicant has taken the initiative to bring the plan into conformity with current standards particularly in regard to hydrogeological and soils conditions as they affect private servicing schemes. This has resulted in the proposal being revised downward to seven (7) detached units. 9.2 The consultant, Walter Gibsoh, in response to the Regional Health Department concern, prepared a letter that noted there was only one dug well that supplied potable water to a dwelling on the down~gradient adjacent lots. . It was further noted that the property owner/resident with the above dwelling had told the consultant they were entirely satisfied with the dug well water supply, to their knowledge the dug well had never had a supply disruption and he preferred keeping the existing large diameter well rather than replacing it with a deeper drilled well. The response letter commented that the hydrogeologic study had concluded that there is no known well supply problem along the down-gradient, east side of the development property and as such, no remediation plan for the existing private wells of Tyrone. 9.3 Staff endorses the walkway location provided in the plan, however, has requested that it be widened to 6 metres. With this subdivision amendment proposal, energy conservation will be ensured through draft approval condition, which requires the submission of an energy management plan. A landscaping plan, acceptable to the Directors of Planning Services and Engineering Services will also have to be submitted. 10.0 CONCLUSIONS 10.1 The purpose of this report is to give the status of the application for the public meeting, and identify comments and issues received to date, and it is appropriate to have the application referred back to staff for further processing. 614 REPORT NO.: PSD-017-07 PAGE 6 Attachments: Attachment 1 - Proposed Amended Draft Plan of Subdivision and Key Map 615 nUCI\..IIIIIC;ln I To Report PSD-017-07 ~ ! ~ "0 .s c E i l:l. :::i l:l. c 0( 0 ~ i: ..

PAGE 2 1.0 APPLICATION DETAILS 1.1 Applicant: Aspen Heights Ltd. 1.2 Draft Plan of Condominium Application: To permit condominium tenure in five low-rise buildings containing 162 residential units. 1.3 Site Area: 2.732 hectares 2.0 LOCATION 2.1 The subject lands are located at 120, 124, 128, 132 & 136 Aspen Springs Drive in Bowmanville (Attachment 1). The property is contained within Part Lots 15 & 16, Concession 1, in the former Township of Darlington. 3.0. BACKGROUND 3.1 On October '23, 2006, the owner submitted an application for condominium approval to the Municipality of Clarington to permit condominium tenure in five low-rise residential buildings containing 162 units. A site plan agreement has been entered into between the Owner and the Municipality of Clarington and construction is nearing completion on all of the five buildings. 4.0 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 4.1 Durham Region Official Plan The lands are designated "Living Area" within the Durham Region Official Plan. The goal of the Living Area designation is to provide a full range of housing. 4.2 Clarington Official Plan Within the Clarington Official Plan, the subject lands are designated "High Density Urban Residential". The High Density Urban Residential designation permits 61-100 units per net hectare. The application conforms to the policies. 5.0 ZONING BY-LAW CONFORMITY 5.1 The subject lands are currently within the "Urban Residential Exception (R4-24) Zone". The R4-24 zone permits a maximum of 60 units per hectare. This application would conform to the zoning provisions. 618 REPORT NO.: PSD-018-07 PAGE 3 6.0 AGENCY COMMENTS 6.1 There were no objections from the circulation of this application. 6.2 Central Lake Ontario Conservation and Durham Region Planning Department had no objection but included in their comments conditions for the Condominium Conditions of Draft Approval. 7.0 STAFF COMMENTS 7.1 A site plan agreement with the Municipality of Clarington detailing the location of buildings and landscaping features is presently registered on title. The site plan agreement also covers financial matters, including development charges and performance guarantees for landscaping and engineering works. The appropriate Letters of Credit were obtained from the Owner for these performance guarantees. This property is also within a registered plan of subdivision and the appropriate parkland dedication was made through the plan .of subdivision. Staff has no objections to the approval of the application for Draft Plan of Condominium. 7.2 Building permits have been issued for all of the five buildings, representing 162 units, and construction is advanced. 7.3 The Owner is aware that the Municipality shall require a site plan amendment to implement the conditions of draft approval contained in Attachment 2 of this report. 8.0 CONCLUSIONS 8.1 Based on comments contained in this report it is respectfully recommended that the Director of Planning Services be authorized to issue draft approval for the proposed condominium, subject to the attached conditions of draft approval contained in Attachment 2.

A site plan application was submitted simultaneously with the rezoning application to facilitate the construction of a 1608.7 square metre addition. 2.2 The existing building was originally built in 1959 as a public elementary school but sold to Hope Fellowship Christian Reformed Church in 2003. On September 13, 2003 Council approved By-law 2003-113 to permit the existing building to be used as a place of worship. 2.3 Th.e existing building is currently used for meeting rooms throughout the week. The addition would include a sanctuary for weekly worship services. 3.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 3.1 A public meeting in accordance with the Planning Act was held on January 22, 2007. Cedardale Realty Holdings Inc., the adjoining land owner to the west. submitted a letter of concern a few days in advance of the meeting and were also represented at the public meeting by their solicitor Frank Feldman. . 3.2 The concerns raised in the letter and at the meeting deal with the fact that the subject lands together with the abutting lands owned by Cedardale Realty Holdings Inc. are designated "Light Industrial". The Light Industrial designation does not permit a place of worship and it is argued by the adjoining neighbours that the expansion of the church "is not appropriate, is not desirable and does not represent good planning." The letter went on to state that "planning approval (of the subject application) wi/! result in the establishment of a large institutional use (that could include a school component and day care facility) that wi/!significantly 623 REPORT NO.: PSD-019-07 PAGE 3 jeopardize or limit the development opportunities of my client's lands for the uses that are currently permitted by the Official Plan." The letter further notes that based on Ministry of the Environment Guideline MOEE D6 dealing with incompatible uses, a separation to the church of 70 to 300 metres may be imposed based on uses that would be permitted by the policies of the existing Light Industrial designation. 4.0 LAND CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING AREAS 4.1 The property is occupied by a 693 m2 (6970 sq. ft.), former five classroom, single floor school building. As municipal water and sewers do not service the area, the school is serviced by a private well and septic system located on the property. A storage container is located on the east side of the property for temporary storage. 4.2 Surrounding Uses: West - North - East - South - limited existing residential and agricultural the Courtice Flea Market and limited existing residential limited existing residential and agricultural limited existing residential and agricultural 5.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT 5.1 Provincial Policy Statement The Provincial Policy Statement states that Settlement Areas shall be the focus of growth promoting efficient land use and development patterns. Planning authorities shall plan for, protect and preserve employment areas. In addition, transportation corridors shall be protected to meet current and future needs. The application conforms to the intent. 5.2 Provincial Growth Plan The proposal does not conflict with the Provincial Growth Plan. 6.0 OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY 6.1 Durham Reqion Official Plan The Durham Region Official Plan designates the property "Employment Area" within the urban boundary of Courtice. Although a place of worship is not . permitted in the Employment Area, policies in the Plan allow for the continuation, expansion, or enlargement of uses which do not conform. 624 REPORT N'O.: PSD-019-07 PAGE 4 6.2 ClarinQton Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject property "Light Industrial Area". Section 11.5.2 states: "The predominant use of land in the Light Industrial Areas shall be manufacturing, assembling, processing, fabricating, repairing, research and development and warehousing. " 6.3 Despite the fact that a school or church is not consistent with the intended use of the "Light Industrial Area", Section 23.5 concerning Non-Conforming uses states that it is not possible or desirable to recognize all existing uses in the Official Plan and provides criteria to be considered prior to passing a by-law to recognize the continuation, expansion or enlargement of a non-conforming use, or the variations to similar uses. The application will be reviewed under these policies. 6.4 The church fronts onto Bloor Street. This section of Bloor Street is a Regional Type 'A' arterial road. Type 'A' arterials are to be designed to efficiently move large volumes of traffic at an operating speed of 70 km/hr in Urban Areas. With a right-of-way width of 36 to 50 metres, access in an urban area is to be limited to every 200 metres on the road. 6.5 The Clarington Official Plan designates the area north of the subject property, north of Bloor Street, as "Future Urban Residential". These areas shall only be used for existing uses or for agricultural purposes until additional residential lands are required. 7.0 ZONING BY-LAW CONFORMITY 7.1 The location of the existing church is zoned Agricultural Exception (A-73) which permits a place of worship and ancillary uses. Lands necessary to accommodate the church expansion are zoned Agricultural (A). .Only places of worship which existed prior to the date of passing of the by-law (September 10, 1984) are permitted, hence the necessity for the rezoning application. 8.0 AGENCY COMMENTS 8.1 The application was circulated to a limited number of agencies. 8.2 None of the circulated agencies had any objection to the proposed rezoning application. The Clarington Engineering Services Department, Clarington Building Division, Regional Works Department, Regional Health Department and CLOCA all provided comments through the circulation that will be considered during the site plan approval process. 625 REPORT NO.: PSD-019-07 PAGE 5 This will include providing a road widening, addressing all stormwater management issues and further evaluation of the existing septic tile bed. 9.0 STAFF COMMENTS 9.1 Hope Fellowship is proposing to triple the size of the existing 693 m2 building to 2,301.9 m2. Included in the proposal will be enhanced parking, landscaping and on-s.ite stormwater management. A future reserve septic bed is located south of the parking lot. 9.2 Designated "Light Industrial" in the Clarington Official Plan, the existing place of worship does not conform to the intended uses for the area. However the church enjoys a legal non-conforming status and Council may zone the lands to permit the extension or enlargement of a legal non-conforming use. The expansion of the place of worship would provide a service to the community of Courtice and make use of existing infrastructure. The subject site is close to transportation links and more important, in close proximity to future residential neighbourhoods located immediately on the north side of Bloor Street. 9.3 The consultant and solicitor for the abutting land owner to the west have raised the issue of land use compatibility of a place of worship in an industrial area. Ministry of Environment Guideline 0-6 was identified as providing specific criteria that should this zoning be approved it would impact the future use of surrounding industrially designated lands. 9.4 The Ministry of Environment Guidelines deal with incompatible land uses. It recognizes that impacts from industrial sources relate to operating and maintenance procedures of an industrial facility rather than general land use designation. The actual area of adverse influence from an industrial operation is site specific. The Ministry Guidelines identify what is considered a sensitive use, as well as three (3) levels of industrial uses. In the absence of site-specific information the guidelines recommend separation distances ranging from 20 to 300 metres between incompatible uses. 9.5 The subject lands were historically used as a public elementary school, which the guideline identifies as a sensitive land use. The rezoning three (3) years ago to allow a place of worship on the lands legalized another use, considered a sensitive land use. Attachment Number 3 depicts the impact of the 70 and 300 metre buffers, Class II and Class III category of uses respectively, from the current zone limits of the subject property as well as from the limits of the designated 'Future Urban Residential' lands to the north. Existing residences, regardless of land use designation would have a similar impact on future industrial land uses. 626 REPORT NO.: PSD-019-07 PAGE 6 9.6 Class I category of uses (20 metre buffer) include small scale industrial facilities with a self contained plant or building producing or storing a packaged product. This includes uses similar to electronic manufacturing and repair; furniture repair; auto parts supply; and a laundry and li'len supply. A number of uses permitted in the "Light Industrial (M1) Zone" would fit into this category. Class II category of uses (70 metre buffer) includes some outside storage, an open process and frequent movement of products and/or heavy trucks. Uses may include magazine printing, paint spray booths, manufacturing of dairy products and dry cleaning services. . 9.7 The policies allow the required separation between incompatible uses to be measured from the zone setback as opposed to the property line. Ancillary land uses such as parking areas may also be used in calculating the required setback between incompatible land uses. In drafting a zoning by-law amendment for the place of worship, a rear yard setback for the church building has been established to allow a possible building envelope that roughly coincides with the existing zone boundary of the original school site (currently zoned A-73). This would allow land south of this point to be used for parking or other ancillary uses that are not considered sensitive. This approach does not increase the area of impact on adjacent industrially designated properties while at the same time allowing for the proposed expansion to the existing building. 9.8 While potentially limiting future expansions for the place of worship, this approach provides sufficient land with the setback to accommodate future growth needs once full municipal services are available to the lands. This proposal has been reviewed with representatives of Hope Fellowship Christian Reformed Church. No objections to this proposed amendment were raised 9.9 The Clarington Official Plan provides for a future collector road to extend east- west in an area near the south end of the site. The woodlot on the adjoining property would lead to an alignment that would require the road to be located on the subject property. This will allow for the future development of the other lands owned by the church to the east. It is recommended that the southerly 45 metres of the subject property remain in the 'A' zone, with the precise collector road alignment to be determined by future studies. A servicing agreement would provide for transfers to dedicate the land to the Municipality at a nominal cost and address the issue of road construction costs. This would be undertaken at the time of the site plan approval process and is a condition for lifting the holding symbol. 9.10 The expansion of the existing church with setback restrictions as described above should not unreasonably hinder future development of adjacent "Light Industrial" lands. There is no increase in the area where the "sensitive use" is currently permitted. 627 REPORT NO.: PSD-019-07 PAGE 7 9.11 It is staffs opinion that the enlargement of the non-conforming place of worship is desirable and consistent with the policies of the Official Plan provided that the future road alignment is secured. 10.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 10.1 Based on the comments in this report, it is respectfully recoJ11mended that the rezoning application submitted by Hope Fellowship Christian Reformed Church be APPROVED and that the attached Zoning By-law be forwarded for ADOPTION by Council.

The proposed building is within 120 metres of a hydrogeological feature, that is a permanent or intermittent stream and related significant valleyland. A site plan application was also received. These applications were in support of permission to build an accessory building, a detached garage. 2.2 The Provincial Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan requires that proposed buildings and structures within 120 metres of a key natural heritage feature such as a permanent or intermittent stream, or a significant valleyland are subject to a Natural Heritage Evaluation. This is reflected in Zoning By-law 2005-109 through the use of an Environmental Holding Symbol on the underlying zone covering the property, the "Natural Linkage (NL) Zone". Removal of the Environmental Holding symbol necessitates a Natural Heritage Evaluation that indicates no or minimal disruption to the Oak Ridges Moraine environment prior to development occurring in conformity with the underlying zone. 3.0 COMMENTS 3.1 The Environmental Holding symbol affects all of 1760 Concession Road 10. The applicants submitted a Natural Heritage Evaluation prepared by Niblett Environmental Associates Inc. The Evaluation concluded the development could proceed as proposed. Staff is satisfied that the Natural Heritage Evaluation has been undertaken to the satisfaction of the Municipality and Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority. 3.2 The proposed garage will be 75.73 m2 in size and comply with the required zone setbacks. No other issues with the proposal were identified. 4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 In consideration of the comments noted above, approval of the Removal of the Environmental Holding symbol as shown on the attached by-law and schedule (Attachment 2) is recommended. 641 REPORT NO.: PSD-021.07 PAGE 3 Attachments: Attachment 1 - Site Location Key Map and Property Plan Attachment 2 - Zoning By-law Amendment Interested parties to be notified of Council's decision: Jeff and Marg Bradley 642 ~ Ii. ~ c .s '" .5 ;: ..

Director of Engineering Services ~ {/)~~ ~ Reviewed by: Franklin Wu Chief Administrative Officer ASC/LJBfjo January 24, 2007 CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON 40 TEMPERANCE STREET, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO L 1C 3A6 T 905-623-3379 F 905-623-9282 701 Report #EGD-017-07 Page 2 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 The Engineering Services Department has been monitoring the area since 2003 when staff received a number of calls from residents requesting an all"way stop due to increasing traffic volumes, pedestrian volumes and high operating speeds. Many of the calls have been from parents of children who must cross Trulls Road to attend either Good Shepherd Catholic Elementary School or Lydia Trull Elementary Public School. 2.0 COMMENT 2.1 Vehicle Speeds Operating speeds on Trulls Road near Avondale were checked by staff using a radar gun and showed an average 61.2 km/hr in the posted 50 km/hr zone while the adult crossing guard was not on duty. This higher than desired operating speed occurs in part due to the road side environment of straight and level alignment, 10m pavement width and some sections with rear yard fenced areas rather than open to residential frontages. 2.2 Consideration of an AII-wav Stop During 2005/2006 Engineering Services worked closely with the (CTMAC) Clarington Traffic Management Advisory Committee to modify the Provincial Warrant for all-way stops, creating an in-house warrant to make it more applicable to Clarington roadways. The in-house modified warrant structure makes it easier for arterial, collector and local roadways to meet warrants for an all-way stop by accepting lower traffic volumes and giving more recognition of unsupervised pedestrian crossings. These modified warrants are intended as a more relaxed guide for staff to evaluate intersections in an unbiased uniform manner to make recommendations to Council. It also gives Council the knowledge that the municipality is attempting to work with its residents in a consistent manner to balance efficient transportation with the needs of the local neighbourhood. 702 Report #EGD-017-07 Page 3 Trulls Road is classed as an Arterial B Roadway connecting Durham Hwy 2 to Durham Road 22 (Bloor Street). The arterial intersection volume warrant for an all-way stop is difficult to reach and although not fully warranted at the present time the numbers are close. The volumes required for arterial roadways are 500 vehicles per hour for the 8 study hours; however, under the more relaxed guidelines staff can consider the 8 hour average. The study recorded an average of 486 vehicles per hour over the 8 hours, and the volume split requirements are satisfied. There were over 300 pedestrians crossing Trulls Road during the 8 hour study with the majority of those being assisted by an adult crossing guard. The peak period was 8:00-9:00 a.m. with an intersection volume of 737 vehicles. Based on the existing average hourly volumes, pedestrian activity and probability of the warrants being met within a short period of time (1 year), staff would recommend that Council support the early introduction of an all-way stop. 2.3 Timinq of Installation Although the intersection volumes are rising surprisingly there has only been 1 collision (during 2005) over the past 3 years. The intersection is operating at an acceptable level of service with Trulls Road having the right-of-way and may continue to operate safely for a number of years. If Council does support the early introduction of an all-way stop, staff recommends that this change in right- of-way take place in the spring of 2007 when weather conditions have improved and pavement markings can be applied. 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 Engineering Services will support the residents' requests for the early introduction of an all-way stop at the intersection of Trulls Road and Avondale Drive based on existing and projected traffic volumes and have attached a proposed by-law for Council's consideration.

The resident borrowed the municipal radar gun on August 21, 22 and 23, 2001 and recorded the license plate numbers of vehicles exceeding the posted speed limit. Durham Regional Police processed the recorded high end offenders through the Clarington Road Watch Program which sends warning letters out to the registered vehicle owners and provides direct police contact for repeat offenders. During late 2006, the same resident again expressed concerns about vehicle speeds and additional traffic volumes, which might be generated from the Newcastle Recreation Complex and pending residential development north of Durham Highway 2. The resident has since requested an all-way stop at the intersection of Rudell Road at Edward Street (T-intersection). This,is the only request that staff have received regarding speeds on Rudell Road. 2.0 COMMENT 2.1 Operatina Speeds On Sept. 7, 2006, staff used the municipal radar gun to accurately record and calculate average vehicle operating speeds of northbound and southbound through traffic on Rudell Road at Edward Street which is posted at 50 kmlhr. The following results were recorded: · 52.5 km/hr before and after school activity . 41.6 km/hr while school students were present on sidewalks Durham Regional Police would not consider this location a "hot spot" for regular enforcement but have performed periodic enforcement. The operating speed on Rudell Road is typical for most wide collector roadways and would not appear to 707 Report #EGO-018-07 Page 3 have an excessive speed problem. An all-way stop at Edward Street would have a minimal impact, if it has any impact at all, on operating speeds in front of the resident's property. This is because his property is located 184 m north of the requested intersection and most motorists accelerate and regain speeds within a short distance after a stop sign. On January 12, 2007, staff used the radar gun to accurately record vehicle operating speeds of northbound and southbound through traffic on Rudell Road at the adult school crossing location in front of St Francis of Assissi Separate Elementary School, (a 50 km/hr zone), with the following results: . 45.7 km/hr before and after school activity . 30.9 km/hr while school students were present on sidewalks Note that during such studies only the higher through traffic speed is recorded, while the slower vehicles which are turning, or through traffic which is impeded by turning traffic, are not included in the calculations. An all-way stop at Rudell and Edward would have a minimal impact if any on the already low speed of traffic in front of the school. 2.2 Motor Vehicle Collision Historv There have been no motor vehicle collisions at the intersection of Rudell Road at Edward Street over the past 5 years. There was one hit and run collision on Rudell Road between Edward Street and Durham Hwy. 2 on Sunday June 27, 2004 at 3:30 am when a northbound van struck a parked car and left the scene. There have been no collisions on Rudell Road south of Edward Street. 2.3 Intersection Review Based on AII-wav Stop Volume Warrants In the Official Plan, Edward Street and Rudell Road are both classified as Collector roadways which are intended to move moderate amounts of traffic between low volume local streets and higher volume arterial roadways. 708 Report #EGD-018-07 Page 4 During 2005 Engineering Services worked closely with the (CTMAC) Clarington Traffic Management Advisory Committee to modify the provincial warrant for all- way stops, creating an in-house warrant that is more applicable to Clarington roadways. The in-house modified warrant structure makes it less stringent/more permissive for collector and local roadways to meet warrants for an all-way stop by accepting lower traffic volumes, fewer peak hours and giving more recognition to unsupervised pedestrian crossings. These modified warrants are intended as a more relaxed guide for staff to evaluate intersections in an unbiased, uniform manner so that they can then make recommendations to Council. The warrants also provide Council with the assurance that the municipality is attempting to work with its residents in a consistent manner to balance efficient transportation with the needs of the local neighbourhood. Using the new modified warrants during early 2007 staff have recommend the implementation of all-way stops at intersections such as Sand ring ham Drive at Claret Road; Pebblestone Road at Trulls Road and Trulls Road at Avondale Drive where intersections with higher vehicle volumes, pedestrian activity or collisions would benefit from implementation ofa traffic control device. On a Clarington wide basis, staff have received requests for all-way stops at 165 different intersections through out Clarington. Staff cannot recommend the installation of an all-way stop at the intersection of Rudell Road and Edward Street because the average number of vehicles on this roadway is significantly less than the warranted number over the four peak hours monitored. In addition it should be noted that the existing pedestrian activity crossing Rudell Road is extremely light, as all of the school students cross under the supervision of an adult guard directly in front of the St. Francis of Assissi Separate Elementary School. 709 Report #EGD-018-07 Page 5 2.4 Comparisons and Other Options The Municipality of Clarington or Region of Durham has not placed all-way stops at other existing Courtice recreation complex facilities on Prestonvale Road or Courtice Road. Staff do not anticipate that the warrants at the Newcastle Recreation Complex will be met or close to being met for many years into the future. Staff do support monitoring activity at each of the facilities to ensure there are no safety concerns. The Clarington Traffic Watch Program which operates early summer to late fall, consists of a part time staff member operating the radar gun with a Radar Message Board attached. This program can be used on Rudell Road to monitor and report speeding drivers through the Road Watch Program. If a sufficient problem exists the unit will make more appearances and Police enforcement will be requested to supplement it. In addition to the Road Watch Program, Clarington residents may also borrow the municipal radar unit any time of the year to monitor vehicles and report them through the Road Watch Program. Residents also have the option of contacting Durham Regional Police directly to ask for periodic enforcement. If the police determine that a serious problem exists they will make return visits. However, as evidenced above, there does not appear to be a speeding issue on Rudell Road. Staff have agreed to install no parking signs near the intersection of Rudell and Edward after construction of the new recreation complex driveway has been built, to ensure that parked vehicles do not obstruct vision from the intersection. Staff, have also discussed with the resident the advantages and disadvantages of temporary or permanent parking prohibitions which could, if required for safety or requested by the residents, be implemented on one side of Rudell Road. 710 Report #EGD-018-07 Page 6 2.5 Traffic Impact StudY The consulting firm of TSH, involved with many municipal projects including the Newcastle Recreation Complex, conducted a traffic impact study and determined that the levels of service are acceptable with the existing stop controls for both the intersection of Rudell Road and Edward Street, and Rudell Road and Durham Highway 2. The conclusion from TSH, based on projected traffic volumes and trip generation, was that both intersections would continue to function at acceptable levels of service after phase 1 is completed in 2007 with the addition of a single stop sign exiting the Newcastle Recreation Complex across from Edward Street. The implementation of an all-way stop would, in their opinion, create queuing and give the effect of a busier intersection than if Rudell Road were left asa free flow condition. The peak times for the complex are typically later in the day and would not conflict with school peak or commuter peak periods. Traffic signals are proposed at Rudell Road and Durham Highway 2, when the Foster Creek Development to the north is constructed. 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 Staff, working with the CTMAC, developed a modified all-way stop warrant policy to be used during intersection reviews by staff. This policy lowered the average intersection volume requirements for an all-way stop on collector roadways from the Provincial figure of 500, to only 375. Staff cannot support this request with volumes of 211 as the already reduced warrants are not close to being satisfied. 711 Report #EGD"()18-07 Page 7 Staff concur with TSH that there will not be a significant increase in traffic on Rudell Road that would warrant an all-way stop in the near future but monitoring the area as development occurs is recommended. If the intersection level of service becomes unacceptable or if the all-way stop warrants do become close in the future, staff or Council will recommend that the municipality be proactive at that time.

The intersection is on the boundary between the Municipality of Clarington and the Township of Scugog. In December, 2002, Clarington Council denied the request for all-way stops based on provincially accepted guidelines. Additional signage and some line painting were placed north of Boundary Road to alert drivers to the change in speed zones as vehicles enter the hamlet of Burketon from the north. The Durham Regional Police Services have said that they would not increase speed patrol in Burketon because it is not cost effective due to the low volume of cars on the road. In 2005, staff modified the provincial warrants to better reflect the Clarington road network. These guidelines, which are less stringent (more permissive), were presented to and adopted by the Clarington Traffic Management Advisory Committee (CTMAC). Even under this new warrant analysis, an all-way stop is far from warranted at this intersection. Another request for all-way stops was made to both Clarington Council and Township of Scugog Council. In March of 2005, Scugog Council denied the request for all-way stops. Although the CTMAC and Durham Region Police Service did not support the installation, in June of 2005, Clarington Council approved the request for all-way stops provided the Township of Scugog was in agreement. Scugog denied the request again in December of 2005. In May of 2006, Scugog Council requested that Township of Scugog staff meet with Clarington staff to review alternatives to deal with the speeding concerns in Burketon. Staff from Scugog and Clarington met to discuss possible options and a preferred alternative was established. The various design alternatives and the preferred alternative was presented at the Public Information Centre in December, 2006. 715 Report #EGO-019-07 Page 3 An all-way stop was not presented as an option, as the use of all-way stops in unwarranted locations presents a safety hazard and is ineffective at reducing mid-block speeds for the following reasons: . Where cross traffic volumes are low, drivers do not expect to meet another vehicle and non-compliance increases. . Pedestrians and other vehicles at the intersection have a false sense of security, believing that the approaching vehicle will stop. . Mid-block speeds are higher as drivers attempt to make up for lost time. 2.0 APPROACH 2.1 In order to obtain local resident input to the design process, a Public Information Centre was held on December 5th, 2006. The public was notified of the meeting by newspaper advertisement and notices were hand delivered to residents close to the intersection. A number of treatments were considered in developing the preferred alternative. Those treatments that required narrowing the road were dismissed due to conflicts with the agricultural traffic that uses Old Scugog Road. The treatments that were included in the preferred alternative become ineffective when used in isolation; however, when multiple treatments are used in combination, they create an effective transition from an open country road to a more confined residential road. 3.0 PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE 3.1 Public Information Centre - December 5. 2006 At the meeting the following documentation and plans were presented for discussion: . Display board of background information; . Two display boards with various design alternatives and brief descriptions; . Display board showing the preferred alternative with before and after visualizations; and 716 Report #EGD-019-07 Page 4 . Traffic survey information, site photographs and design guidelines were on hand for viewing. Members of Clarington staff, Township of Scugog staff, and representatives from Totten Sims Hubicki Associates were on hand to answer questions and present the displays. In all, 15 people signed the register, and another person received the display information via email. The majority of those in attendance were not in favour of the preferred alternative which was comprised of upgraded line painting (dragon's teeth), plantings, rumble strips as one approaches the intersection from the north and upgraded signage (see Attachment 2). The estimated cost of this alternative is $42,000. Five comment sheets were subsequently received. Three of the five wanted an all-way stop, one comment recommended increased police enforcement during peak hours as the best alternative to enforce the existing speed limit and the other comment was in favour of the preferred design. . There were concerns about the cost of implementing the preferred design and its effect on local property taxes. 4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 Based on accepted engineering practice and Clarington's modified warrant analysis, it is recommended that all-way stops not be installed at this location. The use of unwarranted all-way stop signs presents a safety hazard and has proven to be ineffective at reducing vehicle speeds. 717 Report #EGD-019-07 Page 5 Staff recommend that the suggested alternative be implemented; specifically: · Increased line painting (dragon's teeth). · Three sets of rumble strips leading up to the intersection from the north. .

The first section of trail was constructed in 2005 from Soper Creek Park to King Street and has been extremely well used. The next section of trail, approximately 1,870 m in length, will extend from Mearns Park to Concession Street East and from Concession Street East to Sprucewood Crescent (Attachment 1). The design for this section of trail was approved in the 2006 Capital Budget. Recreational trails are extremely popular features in Clarington. They provide unscheduled recreation opportunities for users of varying ages and mobility levels. Our existing paved trails in the Bowmanville Creek Valley and Soper Creek Valley provide access to the natural areas of Bowmanville from the urban areas surrounding them. 2.0 PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE 2.1 To obtain local resident input to the design process, a Public Open House was held on November 22, 2006 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in Council chambers. The public was notified of the meeting by newspaper advertisement and those houses that back onto the proposed trail alignment received a notice in the mail. At the meeting the following displays were presented for discussion: . Aerial photography of the section of trail from Simpson Avenue to Sprucewood Crescent with the existing and proposed trail locations and property fabric; · Aerial photography of the section of trail from King Street to Sprucewood Crescent with the proposed trail locations; · Display board with photographs of proposed trail location; · Display board with photographs of existing trails in Bowmanville; 722 Report #EGD-020-07 Page 3 · Before and after visualizations of proposed trail cross sections; · Handouts of aerial photography with the proposed trail alignment shown; and · Photographs of proposed tree species, benches and trash receptacles. In all, 28 people signed the register, with an additional 5-10 in attendance that did not sign in. Eleven comment sheets were submitted by residents. The main concern expressed by some residents was the proximity of the trail to their rear yards and fear that vandalism, litter and theft could result from increased use of the area. There were also concerns about the potential use of motorized vehicles on the trail. A number of people requested that trees or shrubs be planted between the trail and their property to maintain privacy. A couple of residents recommended that the trail be located on the east side of the creek on private property in order to increase the separation from existing houses. Overall, those who attended the open house were supportive of the proposed trail provided that there was ample separation from the houses and the trail was maintained sufficiently. 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 Most of the concerns raised at the Open House pertained to the section of trail between the soccer field in Mearns Park and Concession Street. It is in this area that the Municipality's property between the Soper Creek and residential is narrowest. It is currently a popular walking route for area residents. Constructing a paved trail through this area would increase the use of the aliea as a walking, jogging and cycling route. To address the residents concerns, the new section of the proposed trail would be located as far as possible from the rear yards without impacting the existing tree line at the top of bank. This would ensure that the new portions of trail would be setback at least 10m from the residential yards at its narrowest location. In addition, a row of trees would be planted between the trail and the rear yards. 723 Report #EGD-020-07 Page 4 Based on the input received, it is recommended that the Municipality proceed with finalizing the trail design with alterations to address the concerns about screening and setbacks.

Council passed the following resolution: "That the delegation of Paul Rousseau and petition requesting construction of a skateboard park in Orono be referred to staff and that staff liaise with Paul Rosseau concerning the potential development of the park". Since that time staff has met with Paul and Marilyn Rousseau several times and have investigate potential sites and sources of funding. The most appropriate Municipal site for such a feature is Orono Park. The park has an existing asphalt pad in good condition that could be used as the surface for the installation of modular skate park equipment. It is estimated that modular skate park equipment for the area in question would cost approx. $65,000. Staff inquired with the Ontario Trillium Foundation about the eligibility of such a project and was informed that Trillium has provided grants for similar projects in other Municipalities. Municipalities are not eligible to apply for Trillium grants so it was recommended that an incorporated organization with a mandate to provide youth recreation be the lead applicant for the grant. The Orono Amateur Athletic Association (OAAA) currently runs ball and hockey programs for the youth of Orono. Paul Rosseau is a member of the OAAA and they have agreed to be the lead applicant. 2.0 ONTARIO TRILLIUM GRANT APPLICATION 2.1 The Ontario Trillium Foundation accepts applications for grants three times per year on March 1, July 1 and November 1. The OAAA hopes to submit an application for the March 1 deadline. As part of the Trillium grant application, the OAAA are forming a Collaborative Agreement with the Municipality and the Orono Skate Park Committee which is comprised of Orono residents who support the project. 732 REPORT NO.: EGD-022-07 PAGE 3 The grant application is focused on providing recreational opportunities for youth in Orono through the installation of modular skate park equipment on an existing asphalt pad at Orono Park. The equipment will be portable but can only be moved with heavy equipment. It could be configured to suit the needs of the users and community. 3.0 COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENT 3.1 The Trillium Foundation encourages groups with a mutual interest in a project to form a Collaborative Agreement. A collaborative is made up of two or more organizations that jointly support an application to achieve a common goal where there is mutual benefit, shared decision making and accountability to each other. The collaborative agreement outlines the roles and responsibilities of all of the interested parties. The Municipality would provide the existing paved surface on our property at Orono Park and provide assistance with the overall project direction, design, and ordering of materials. The collaborative agreement prepared by the OAAA is attachment NO.1 to this report.

THE ORONO SKATE PARK COMMITTEE Background: Skateboarding is increasing in popularity every year. This increase has definitely been noticed in Orono and a need was identified within the community to provide our local riders with a safe location to enjoy the sport. During the summer of 2006, The Orono Skate Park Committee was formed and petitions were circulated throughout Orono and the surrounding areas to garner support for a skate park. Over 380 people signed a petition that was presented to Clarington Council by Paul Rosseau, Chair of the Orono Skate Park Committee, on October 16, 2006. Following his presentation Council passed the following resolution; "That the delegation of Paul Rosseau and petition requesting construction of a skateboard park in Orono be referred to staff and that staff liaise with Paul Rosseau concerning the potential development of the park".

Orono is a village within the Municipality of Clarington with a population of approximately 1700 people. Located in the north/east part of the municipality, Orono is quite remote from the main urban areas of Clarington. The Orono Amateur Athletic Association (OAAA) was formed in 1946 with a mandate to provide youth recreation services for Orono and surrounding areas. Currently the OAAA runs youth hockey and soccer programs with annual registrations of over 300 children. The Municipality of Clarington has one skate park located in Bowmanville which is 14 km from Orono and not accessible by public transit. Consequently skate boarders have been using the downtown core of Orono where there are steps, railings, walls and bench,es. This has lead to some property damage, vandalism and loitering in the downtown business area. Shopkeepers and residents agree that a designated skateboard site will reduce or eliminate the problems associated with skateboarding on Main Street. The proposed location for the skate park is 400 m from the downtown business area and less than a kilometer from most of the residential areas in Orono. Orono Park is already the hub of recreational activity in Orono with its lighted ball diamond, outdoor pool, water play ground and picnic areas. The skate park would not only provide increased recreational opportunities for the youth of Orono it would also attract more visitors to Orono from the outlying areas which would further benefit the businesses on Main Street. Time Frame: This collaborative has been formed to begin the application process with the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The Collaborative Agreement was formally executed in February 2007. The construction of the project could be completed in one season however the collaborative will continue as an advisory committee for the use, maintenance, and operation of the skate park. The collaborative may evolve over time to include other interested parties such as the Business Improvement Association and adjacent residents. 735 Decision Making Process: The goal of the collaborative is to make decisions related to this project by consensus. If a consensus cannot be reached a majority vote will rule the decision, with each member group having a single vote. These decisions would include; guiding the skate park design process, evaluating the skate park equipment proposals, and establishing the exact location for the equipment within Orono Park. Meeting minutes will record all decisions of the collaborative. Management of Grant Funds: The Orono Amateur Athletic Association is a not-for-profit incorporated organization. They will receive the grant funds and accept responsibility for fiscal accountability. They will order the equipment required to complete the project and pay all invoices using the grant funds. Roles and Responsibilities of Collaborative Members: Orono Amateur Athletic Association .

At that public meeting the preferred option for reconstruction of the subway was presented to the public and was generally well received. The preferred option called for the permanent realignment of the existing railway tracks approximately 10 metres to the south of their existing location to allow for the staged reconstruction of the new subway while maintaining high speed rail traffic through the construction zone. 1.2 The preferred alternative was primarily driven by input received from CNR who firmly indicated no acceptance of a construction approach that would involve track speed reduction or significant periods of railway closure (I.e. up to 48 hours), that all railway diversions must be designed for full design speed operation and only short term (12 to 18 hour) single track closures would be permitted during the reconstruction. These more stringent criteria had evolved since 1994 and their inclusion disqualified the option preferred by staff and project consultants TSH, which was to reconstruct the subway with the railway tracks temporarily supported in their current location. 1.3 CNR also indicated that because of the complexity of the project and potential impacts on its infrastructure that certain aspects of the detailed design and construction would have to be completed by CN forces or their designated consultants, UMA Group Ltd. In addition the work would be tendered as a CN contract with purchase orders issued by Clarington to cover the majority of design and construction costs. 1.4 On July 26, 2006 the Municipality received a letter addressed to Mayor Mutton with a petition signed by 50 local residents primarily living south of 745 REPORT NO.:EGD-024-07 PAGE 3 the railway, expressing concern over the project as proposed. Their primary issues of concern were the potential for increased noise and vibration resulting from relocation of the railway tracks closer to their homes and the environmental impacts resulting from having to widen the railway embankment to accommodate the new track alignment. Widening of the railway embankment would result in tree removal and the need to lengthen culverts at the railway crossing of both Foster and Graham Creeks. They also expressed concern over noise, dust and vibration impacts during construction, increased post construction vehicular speeds and decreased properly values and public safety resulting from the tracks moving closer to their homes. In essence they expressed support for the "Do Nothing" scenario. 1.5 During the fall of 2006 Municipal staff and consultants met with CNR staff to review project issues and confirm criteria for final design and project scheduling. Through these meetings CNR staff reinforced the requirement to maintain high speed train traffic through the construction zone and the need to relocate the railway southerly to facilitate subway reconstruction. They would not commit to a construction schedule because of a severe shortage of flagging personnel and indicated that even if a flag person was available for the project that person would only be able to work 8 hour days, including travel time to and from the work site. 2.0 PROJECT COSTS 2.1 The restricted work day imposed by limited flagging resources will have a significant impact on project costs. Contractors typically work 10 to 12 hour days during the peak summer construction season. Productivity will be severely reduced on this project resulting in a cost premium. 746 REPORT NO.:EGD-024-07 PAGE 4 2.2 As CNR forces will be administering the construction contract, the Municipality will have reduced control over the expenditure of funds and will be exposed to considerable financial risk. 2.3 The need to extend the stone culverts at the railway crossings at both Foster and Graham Creeks also adds financial liability to the project. Both extensions will require "in water works" resulting in the need to provide fisheries compensation as well as the use of design and construction methods sensitive to their historic nature. 2.4 Based on the above factors it is now estimated that the originally preferred alternative will cost approximately $11 million to construct. The allocation in the 2006 capital budget for this project was $6.5 million. 3.0 COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS 3.1 As a result of projected project cost increases noted above, the concerns raised by residents, and the lack of commitment to the project by CNR, the Director of Engineering Services requested that previous alternatives for improving traffic circulation to and from the growing residential community south of the CNR be re-evaluated. 3.2 Synectics, a subsidiary of TSH specializing in transportation safety, was retained to review previously evaluated alternatives from a traffic safety and cost benefit perspective. They submitted a 60 page report (excluding Appendices) entitled "Operations and Safety Assessment Transportation Network Improvement Alternatives, Mill Street South, Newcastle" on January 29, 2007. The report is available for review through the Engineering Services department. In the report Synectics concludes that when the costs associated with construction, maintenance, operational performance and safety are considered, individually, none of the alternatives considered in the EA process provide a cost effective solution 747 REPORT NO.:EGD-024-07 PAGE 5 to the problem. When, however, the beneficial components of each alternative were combined into a "Hybrid" alternative a cost effective solution was derived. Synectics noted in their report that "These economic benefits are exclusive of the expected, but unquantifiable, reduction in collision risk to vulnerable road users travelling along Mill Street South, in the vicinity of the CN rail underpass." 3.3 The Hybrid alternative recommended by Synectics is outlined as follows: · Retain Mill Street South/Port of Newcastle Drive as the primary access to development south of the CNR; · Make minor improvements to the Mill Street South/CN rail underpass, to improve sightlines and increase vertical clearance; · Upgrade the Mill Street South roadway cross-section to an urban, two- lane standard, north and south of the CN rail corridor underpass, to provide cycling lanes and sidewalks; · Construct a dedicated pedestrian/cyclist tunnel adjacent to the existing underpass; · Upgrade Toronto Street to a rural two-lane standard with improved horizontal and vertical geometry, while retaining the existing road/rail at-grade crossing of the CN rail corridor; and · As traffic volumes increase Install traffic control signals at the Mill Street South @ Toronto Street/Highway 401 South Ramp Terminal intersection 3.4 The estimated cost to implement the improvements is $2.25 million. While the solution does not address all project objectives completely it does address the majority of concerns raised by the resident petition while reducing overall project costs, collision risk, and limiting the involvement and cost unpredictability of CNR. Their approvals will still be required for construction of the pedestrian/cyclist underpass. 3.5 The pedestrian/cyclist tunnel should be designed and construction to complement the historic nature of the existing Mill Street subway. 748 REPORT NO.:EGD-024-07 PAGE 6 4.0 CONCLUSIONS 4.1 To properly conclude the public contact component of the project it is recommended that a final information centre be scheduled for late February to present the solution noted above. The Environmental Study Report (ESR) for the project will be completed and on display for public review. 4.2 The following schedule is proposed for the completion of the project: Final public contact and completion of the ESR Complete construction of Toronto Street improvements Tender improvements for Mill Street including sidewalk, pedestrian /cyclist underpass and minor grading improvements Complete construction of Mill Street improvements Signalization of Mill Street South @ Toronto StreeUHighway 401 South Ramp Terminal intersection February 28, 2007 September 2007 September 2007 June 2008 Future 4.3 Based on the cost estimate for the preferred alternative of $2.25 million and the 2006 Council approved budget allocation of $6.5 million the Director of Finance and the Director of Engineering Services should review expenditures to date and reallocate surplus funds as necessary to reserve accounts. 4.4 This report has been reviewed by the Finance Department and they concur with the recommendations contained herein. 749 CI!Jlil]gron REPORT OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT Meeting: GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE Date: February 5, 2007 Report #: OPD-001-07 File #: By-Law #: Subject: COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE KENDAL LIONS CLUB, THE KENDAL COMMUNITY CENTRE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to Council the following: 1.
