Report Overview
Page 2
This report is recommending approval of a proposed amendment to Draft Approved Plan of
Subdivision and an application for Zoning By-law Amendment, submitted by Farsight
Investments Limited and Savannah Land Corporation. The proposed change would add 0.64
hectares of land to the draft approved plan of subdivision and changes the size and
configuration of the park, stormwater management pond and roads to permit 69 additional
residential units.
As conditions of approval of the amendment to draft approval and rezoning the Municipality will
acquire approximately 13.7 hectares of additional open space in the Soper Creek valley, which
is currently owned by the Savannah Land Corporation (Bowmanville Zoo). The acquisition of
these lands has great public benefit to the residents of the Municipality. It will allow for
additional active and passive lands which will allow a connection of trails through the Soper
Valley system.

2. Background
2.1 In September 2010, Farsight Investments Limited received Draft Approval for a 541 unit
residential plan of subdivision. The draft plan consisted of 273 single detached units,
five blocks for 29 street townhouse units, 2 blocks for 239 block -townhouse units; open
space blocks, which includes the lands associated with the main branch of the Soper
Creek as well as a tributary to the Soper Creek, a stormwater management block and
two park blocks.
2.2 Final Approval for the first phase of the plan was not possible due to sanitary sewer
capacity constraints at the Port Darlington Water Pollution Control plant. As a result
Farsight received an extension to Draft Approval in 2015. Draft approval was extended
for Phase 1 to November 27, 2018, and no later than November 27, 2022 for any
subsequent phase.
2.3 In 2016, a further amendment was approved which related to trails, pedestrian
connectivity and plan implementation. The timeframe for registration of Phase 1 or
subsequent phases was not changed.
2.4 On March 9, 2018, Farsight Investments submitted an application for rezoning to
establish a setback from the visibility triangle on corner lots within the Draft Approved
Plan of Subdivision. Subsequently, Farsight Investments together with Savannah Land
Corporation submitted an application to amend draft approved plan S -C 2005-002 to
incorporate a 0.64 hectare (1.16 acre) of land, outlined in red on Figure 1 into the Draft
Plan. Savannah Land Corporation owns the lands on which the Bowmanville Zoo was
situated. The majority of Savannah's lands are in the floodplain with the exception of
0.64 hectares adjacent to Farsight's lands. Acquiring these lands will allow relocation of
a portion of the park block and stormwater management pond on these lands. This has
the effect of changing their size and configuration. It also changes the road pattern in
the southern portion of the plan. Farsight has also taken this opportunity to change the
unit type and count in other portions of the plan resulting in a total increase of 71 units
over the entire draft plan.
2.5 The redevelopment potential of the Bowmanville Zoo lands is extremely limited because
of its location in the floodplain. Farsight Investments as the adjoining land owner has the
best opportunity to service and develop the 0.64 portion of the former Bowmanville Zoo
lands not in the floodplain. Through a negotiated agreement between Savannah Land
Corporation and Farsight Investments, a separate agreement has been entered into
between Savannah and the Municipality so that 13.7 hectares or 34 acres of the zoo's
lands will be dedicated to the Municipality to allow for the development of a soccer field
adjacent to the park and recreational trails. The existing mobile home park, Barley Mill
building and the single detached residence on the site will be retained by Savannah.
(See Figure 2.) The 13.7 hectare lands will be transferred to the Municipality without
buildings and in a clean, Record of Site Condition compliant condition.

3. Land Characteristics and Surrounding Uses
Page 6
3.1 The lands subject to Draft Approval have been graded and some trees removed in
anticipation of site servicing. The 0.64 hectare parcel owned by Savannah Land
Corporation is outside of the Soper Creek floodplain and currently supports three
buildings, two barns and a building that was used as an auditorium by the Bowmanville
Zoo (See Figure 3.)
3.2 The surrounding uses are as follows:
North - Concession Road 3 and future residential lands as part of Lamb's Road School
Development (Jury Lands)
South - Rural residential lots, a used car dealership, and a veterinary clinic
East - Rural Residential, cultivated fields and horticultural operation
West - Open Space associated with Soper Creek, various buildings related to the
former Bowmanville Zoo and a trailer park

4. Provincial Policy
Provincial Policy Statement
4.1 The Provincial Policy Statement identifies settlement areas as the focus of growth.
Planning authorities are encouraged to create healthy, livable and safe communities by
accommodating an appropriate range and mix of residential, employment, recreational
and open space uses to meet long term needs. Land use patterns shall be based on
densities and a mix of land uses that efficiently use land, resources and infrastructure.
The subject applications are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement.
Provincial Growth Plan
4.2 The subject lands are within the defined Built Boundary. Population and employment
growth will be accommodated by directing a significant portion of new growth to the
built up areas through intensification and efficient use of existing services and
infrastructure. The development of complete communities is encouraged by promoting
a diverse mixof land uses, a mix of employment and housing types, high quality public
open space and easy access to local stores and services. New transit -supportive and
pedestrian -friendly developments will be concentrated along existing and future transit
routes. The Growth Plan establishes minimum targets for residential development
occurring annuallywithin each upper tier municipality to be within the built up area. The
subject applications are consistent with the Growth Plan.
5. Official Plans
Durham Region Official Plan
5.1 The Durham Region Official Plan designates the lands as Living Areas. Lands
designated Living Area permit the development of communities incorporating the widest
possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure to provide living accommodations
that address various socio-economic factors. The proposed development conforms with
the Durham Region Official Plan.
Clarington Official Plan
5.2 The Clarington Official Plan designates the lands as Urban Residential and
Environmental Protection Area. The Urban Residential designation shall predominantly
be used for housing purposes, providing for a variety of densities, tenure and types.
Neighbourhoods are to be walkable, compact, connected and create a high quality
public realm. The lands associated with the Soper Creek valleylands and the 0.64
hectares being added into the draft plan are designated Environmental Protection. The
Natural Environment policies require a minimum 15 metres setback from natural
heritage features including watercourses and valleyland. The 0.64 hectares are outside
of the Soper Creek floodplain, contain multiple buildings and do not have any significant
natural heritage features. These lands are interpreted to be designated urban
residential. An Environmental Impact Study (EIS) is required for the lands being added
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD -071-18
Page 8
to the draft plan to determine the development limits, and define the limits of the park
and stormwater management pond locations.
5.3 The lands adjacent to Lambs Road and Concession Street are identified as a Local
Corridor which are to have a variety of medium density development. A medium density
block is located at the north and south ends of the draft plan of subdivision.
6. Zoning By-law
Zoning By-law 84-63 zones the subject lands as Environmental Protection (EP), and
various other urban residential zones for single detached dwellings, street townhouses
and block townhouses. An application for rezoning has been submitted.
7. Supporting Documentation
Phase One Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), PGL Environmental
Consultants, March 2018
7.1 This report was prepared for the entire land parcel owned by Savannah and based on
observations, information collection and present land use. The site was a former
orchard, and a former gas station was located abutting King Street on the property
which is now a parking lot, and as such PGL is recommending a Phase 2 ESA be
undertaken.
Functional Servicing Report Addendum, GHD, July 2018
7.2 The updated Functional Servicing Report confirms that the sanitary sewer system and
the water supply system can accommodate the proposed addition to the existing
approved development once the services are extended. Similarly, the stormwater
management pond has been sized to accommodate the additional lands and the storm
sewers will be sized accordingly.
Scoped Environmental Impact Study (EIS), Niblett Environmental Associates,
August 2018
7.3 An EIS was originally undertaken when the application was submitted in 2005. A
scoped EIS was undertaken to assess the impacts on Natural Heritage Features for the
zoo lands, as well as for the stormwater management pond and outfall. The
development of the property (soccer field, parking lot, stormwater management pond
and servicing corridor) will not have a significant impact on the Natural Heritage System
or the Soper Creek provided the mitigation measures and recommendation of the report
are implemented. A butter -nut tree was identified on the zoo lands near the trailer park
and must be preserved.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD -071-18
Page 9
Tree Inventory and Assessment Report, Schollen & Company Inc., June 27, 2018
7.4 This report assessed the trees specifically in the vicinity of the proposed park and
soccer field. Approximately, 50 trees were assessed; Silver Maple, Norway Maple and
Spruce, 42 of which were in good condition. The report made recommendations for
preservation of trees and the mitigation of potential impacts that could arise during the
construction period.
Traffic Impact Study, GHD, June 2018
7.5 The report concludes that under the future traffic forecast (2031) the traffic generated by
the proposed development can be accommodated by the abutting road system.
Recommended improvements include traffic signals and east bound and westbound left
turn lanes at the intersection of Highway 2 and Lambs Road. Traffic generated by the
proposed development does not have a significant adverse impact on the abutting
intersections. No other road improvements are triggered by the proposed development.
Northeastern Archaeological Associates, August 2018
7.6 The archaeological assessment did not result in the discovery of any material of
archaeological interest.
8. Public Submissions
8.1 One resident residing on Barley Mill Crescent expressed concern with the increased
traffic and speed on Mearns Avenue, Concession Road 3, King Street and Liberty
Street. Stop signs and crosswalks need to be installed in the area. He is concerned with
the number of coyotes in the valley, and asked what will happen to the Savannah
Lands.
8.2 One resident residing on Barley Mill Crescent requested that the fencing between the
Barley Mill Park, owned by the Municipality and the former Bowmanville Zoo lands be
removed so that people could have access to Soper Creek. This individual also
requested the lands owned by Savannah Land Corporation be donated to or purchased
by the Conservation Authority.
8.3 One resident residing on Lambs Road is concerned with dust and the impact of the
development on his horticultural operation.
8.4 One resident on Soper Creek Drive is concerned with the reduced size of the park,
pedestrian connectivity through the park and valleylands.
8.5 The Pastor from The Seventh Day Adventist church would like access to municipal
water and sewer lines as well as fibre-optic internet lines on Lambs Road past the
church with the possibility of connecting to them.

8.6 One resident voiced concerns that the amount of parkland dedication does not seem
enough given the number of people that will live in the subdivision.
9. Agency Comments
Region of Durham
9.1 The Regional Municipality of Durham stated that the Environmental Site Assessment
Study prepared by PGL (March 2018) was prepared for due diligence and is not
consistent with the Region's Council adopted Site Contamination Protocol and
consistent with O.Reg. 153/04. The applicant will be required to provide a Phase 1
ESA consistent with the Region's policies as a condition of draft approval.
9.2 Regional Works identified that sanitary and water services are available to
accommodate these proposed lots. The development does not present any significant
Regional transportation or transit impacts.
9.3 The Region's conditions are included in the proposed Conditions of Draft Approval
included as Attachment 1.
Central Lakes Ontario Conservation Authority
9.4 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority does not object to the inclusion of
the 0.64 hectares owned by Savanah into the draft approved plan. CLOCA is
requesting that Block 314 be "frozen" until such time detailed design of the
stormwater management pond is reviewed and approved. Based on the reports
submitted in support of the amendment CLOCA is satisfied in principle with the
location of the soccer field. The proposed soccer field requires filling in the regulatory
flood plain and will require a cut and fill analysis to the satisfaction of the
Conservation Authority.
9.5 The Conservation Authority is satisfied with Environmental Impact Study, and requires
the applicant to carry out the recommendations in the study. A Landscaping Plan is
required for the stream bank, the setback from the valley and natural areas as well as
the stormwater management pond and outfall.
9.6 Compensation Plan and Restoration Plan are required for removal of any vegetation
as a result of the development. A Transplant Plan is required for the Regionally rare
Geranium maculatum.
9.7 The Conservation Authority's conditions are included in the proposed Conditions of
Draft Approval included as Attachment 1.
Enbridge Gas
9.8 Enbridge Gas has offered no objection.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD -071-18 Page 11
10. Departmental Comments
Engineering Services
10.1 The Engineering Department has no objection to the amendment to Draft Approval and
rezoning as proposed. An Addendum to the Functional Servicing Report was submitted
and is acceptable. The Traffic Impact Study has been updated and meets the
Municipality's requirements. The On -Site Parking Plan has been submitted and requires
minor revisions but overall is acceptable. A Park Concept Plan has been submitted by
the applicant which is generally deemed satisfactory. Further details will be required at
the Detailed Design Stage of the subdivision.
Emergency and Fire Services
10.2 Emergency and Fire Services have offered no objection to the proposed amendment to
draft approval and rezoning.
11. Discussion
11.1 Farsight filed an Official Plan Amendment, draft plan of subdivision and rezoning in
2005. The draft plan went through various changes before finally receiving draft
approval in 2010. At the time, the owner of the Bowmanville Zoo, raised various
concerns regarding the proximity of proposed residential uses adjacent to the zoo lands,
mainly for safety reasons. The stormwater management pond and park were configured
in such a way so as to provide a buffer between the new residential dwellings and the
zoo lands. A 3.0 metre wide strip of land was to be transferred to the zoo as an extra
buffer. The conditions of draft approval required that Farsight install a 3 metre high,
non -gated and non -scalable fence with razor wire parallel to the shared property line
between the zoo and stormwater management pond. (See Figure 4.) Additional
plantings were also required to deter access. Now that the zoo is no longer operating
and additional developable lands are available, Farsight proposes to move the park and
stormwater management pond westerly which changes their size and configuration.
(See Figure 5.)

Figure 4: Park and Stormwater Management Pond approved in 2010
11.2 In order for the amendment to Draft Approval to be viable an agreement between
Farsight, Savanah and the Municipality of Clarington was required. Council authorized
staff to undertake such an agreement, which allows Savanah to retain the existing
single detached dwelling, the mobile home park and the original Barley Mill building for
limited retail and restaurant use. It allows Farsight to incorporate the lands that were
outside of the floodplain and void of natural features into their development and
provided 13.7 hectares of additional valley lands to the Municipality.

Figure 5: Proposed changes to the Park and Stormwater Management Pond in 2018
Parkland and Open Space
11.3 Parkland dedication is calculated at 5% of the land area within any draft plan or 1
hectare per 300 units. In 2010, parkland was calculated at 5%; 2.302 hectares. The
draft approved plan totalled 2.67 hectares of parkland, which included a 0.14 hectare
parkette situated in the north portion of the subdivision and the 2.53 hectares in the
south portion adjacent to the stormwater management pond, which represented an over
dedication of 0.5 hectares of parkland. In the current proposal, the parkette remains the
same size while the proposed newly configured park is 0.93 hectares in size, or 1.601
hectares smaller. To reduce part of the deficit and to improve the overall park
configuration and access to the open space lands staff requested an additional four lots,
adjacent the park be removed and added to the park increasing the park size to 9.98
hectares. See Draft Plan on Attachment 2.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD -071-18
Page 14
11.4 As a condition of draft approval, Farsight is required to build the trail through the Soper
Creek valley from Durham Highway 2 to Concession Street and make a trail connection
to the Barley Mill Park.
11.5 The original conditions of draft approval required Farsight to construct a full park,
including all proposed park features including waterplay area, traditional play area, park
shelter, un -lit soccer field, connecting walkways, parking lot, '/2 court basketball court
and trails connecting the open space to the north, south and west.
11.6 The reconfigured park is outside of the Soper Creek floodplain, save and except the
soccer field which is in the floodplain. The preliminary parks plan has been designed
with a cut/fill balance to ensure that the soccer field does not reduce the capacity of the
floodplain. CLOCA and staff are generally satisfied with the preliminary parks plan
however detailed engineering calculations are still required. The Municipality does not
accept parkland in a flood plain however, the park together with the soccer field and
open space lands to the north, south and west create a large contiguous recreational
space for active and passive uses, all in Municipal ownership. These portions will link
recreational uses and trails from the Visual Art Centre in the south to Mearns Avenue
north of Sprucewood Avenue in the north, which is approximately 3 kilometres of trail.
This is a great benefit to the public and consistent with the Corporate Strategic Plan, the
Clarington Official Plan and active transportation initiatives. The zoo lands will be
transferred to the Municipality void of all buildings, fencing, and former animal
enclosures, in a non -contaminated condition and compliant with a Record of Site
Condition. These additional benefits offset and compensate appropriately for parkland
deficit.
Stormwater Management Pond
11.7 A Functional Servicing Report Addendum has been prepared by GHD. GHD proposes
that major storm events will be piped around or through the pond. Conveying major
storm event flows through the pond is not acceptable to the Conservation Authority.
CLOCA is recommending that Block 314, which is a townhouse block adjacent to the
stormwater management pond be "frozen" until the detailed design of the pond is
provided and approved by CLOCA and the Municipality.
Lotting Pattern and Unit Count
11.8 The majority of the changes to the draft plan take place at the south portion of the draft
plan where the streets are reconfigured and more residential units are added. Farsight's
proposed amended plan also adds street townhouse units replacing single detached
units in the north portion of the plan which face Lambs Road. This better implements the
recent Local Corridor designation. The lot sizes as well as the unit count in the two
medium density blocks remains the same. To make up the short fall of the four lots, the
lotting pattern has been changed by reducing the 13.5 metre lots on the west side of the
plan to 12 metre lots and by adding in two more lots, resulting in a reduction of two lots
over the entire draft plan. The number of larger lots have been reduced despite the
overall increase in the number of units. See Table 1.

11.9 The traffic generated from the revised development does not require any upgrades on
Mearns Avenue, Concession Road 3, King Street or Liberty Street. Under future traffic
projections, the signalization and installation of left turn lanes will be required at Lambs
Road and Durham Highway 2. The traffic generated from this site will be monitored for
triggering impacts on existing intersections by the Municipality and Region of Durham.
Rezoning For Sight Triangles
11.10 The applicant also applied for a rezoning to include a setback from the sight triangles on
all corner lots. Staff have reviewed the models and lotting sitings submitted in support of
the application. The sight triangle is the portion of land forming a part of the road
allowance at the intersection of two streets. The sight triangle varies from a 5 m x 5m at
the intersection of two local roads to 7.5 m x 14 m at the intersection of a collector road
and an arterial road, such as the access to the subdivision. As this is part of the lot
boundary, buildings and structures must be setback from the lot line formed by the sight
triangle. This is a very technical issue. Staff have amended the Zoning Bylaw to reduce
the setback from the dwelling and or porch to 2 metres where the lots abut Lambs Road
and 3 metres for corner lots in the interior of the subdivision. It should be noted that this
is only required for specific house models. Further sight triangles are grassed areas so
the house is generally no closer to the paved road surface.
Street Names
11.11 On December 16, 2013 Council directed that Street "H" of draft approved plan of
subdivision S -C 2005-002, be named Limba Way to honour the memory of the then
deceased elephant Limba. On February 9, 2015, in consideration of the long history of
the Bowmanville Zoo and the proximity of this institution to the draft approved plan of
subdivision to be developed by Far Sight Homes, Council directed the use of additional
names associated with the Bowmanville Zoo in the draft approved plan of subdivision
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD -071-18
Page 16
S -C 2005-002. In addition to Limba, other street names approved were Caesar, Jonas,
and Julie. Council is asked to reconfirm their support for these street names.
12 Conclusion
In consideration of the findings of all supporting studies, agency and resident comments
and based on review of the proposal, staff recommend approval of the proposed draft
plan of subdivision, including Conditions of Draft Approval (Attachment 1), redlined Draft
Plan of Subdivision (Attachment 2) and Zoning By-law amendment (Attachment 3).
13 Strategic Plan
The recommendations of this Report conform to the Strategic Plan action to support a
variety of affordable mixed housing types, and community design attributes that support
our residents at every stage of life and across all abilities, to build trails to connect the
community to the waterfront and to promote active transportation.
