2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 Municipal Staff, the developers of Plan 18T-88037 and the Kawartha Pineridge School
Board have been working together to revise the configuration of the park and the school
blocks within this plan of subdivision. The reconfiguration of the school and park blocks is
required to accommodate the proposed footprint and the associated amenity area of the
future public school, which is proposed to be constructed in the year 2000 (Attachment #1).

2.2 In order to meet the School Board's timetable for construction, the School Board acquired
the school block in advance of the registration of the plan of subdivision through a land
division application consent considered by the Land Division Committee on May 17, 1999.
2.3 Subsequent to the School Board acquiring the school block through consent, the School
Board's architect determined that the school block acquired could not accommodate the
proposed footprint of the school and the associated amenity area.
3.0 REPORT AND COMMENT
3.1 In order to resolve the School Board's concern since the school block and the park block
have a common lot line and the School Board, through the Developer of Plan 18T-88037,
requested that the Municipality consider an adjustment to the common lot line between the
school block and the park block, that in effect reduces the size of the park block in lieu of a
larger school block.
3.2 The park block is described as Block 135 on Plan 40M-1977 and represents an over-
dedication of parkland for this development. Our proposed park conceptual design was
reviewed and we determined that an adjustment of the common lot line could be
accommodated without adversely affecting the design of the park, provided that the
recreation facilities that the School Board constructs could be integrated into our conceptual
design for the park (Attachment #2).
3.3 The Developer and the School Board were advised that if the recreational facilities could be
integrated into one plan that complemented each other, then we would be receptive to
adjusting the lot line.
3.4 An overall conceptual design plan was prepared for the recreational facilities within the
school and park blocks. The plan confirmed that an adjustment to the lot line could be
achieved between the proposed soccer pitch (school block) and the baseball diamond (park
block). This adjustment to the common lot line results in a block of land described as Part 1
of Plan 40R-19289, which constituted part of the original park block (2.251 hectares)
proposed under plan of subdivision, if the transfer is approved, would form part of the
school block and be transferred to the school board. The park block remains of 1.992

hectares exceeds the parkland contribution the developer of this plan is required to provide
which is 1.65 hectares.
3.5 In order to meet the timing constraints for the servicing of this development, the plan of
subdivision was registered on August 31, 1999. At the time of registration, the issue
regarding the adjustment to the lot line was not fully resolved and, subsequently, the
Municipality received ownership of the oversized park block (Block 135, Plan 40M-1977),
which included the lands required by the School Board. The Developer and the School
Board have requested that, subsequent to the registration of the plan of subdivision, the
adjustment of the common lot line may be facilitated by the Municipality transferring to the
School Board the lands described as Part 1 of Plan 40R-19289.
4.0 CONCLUSION
4.1 Staff concurs with the adjustment of the common lot line and therefore recommends that the
Municipality transfer to the School Board, Part 1 on Plan 40R-19289 and that the Developer
be responsible for all costs, legal or otherwise, associated with the transfer of these lands to
the Kawartha Pineridge School Board.
