Jennifer Savini, Templeman, LLP, was present regarding Report PSD -015-19,
Proposed Changes to the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe. Ms. Savini
explained that her client owns property in Hampton which is subject to rounding out of
hamlets as approved through the Clarington Official Plan Amendment 107 (OPA 107).
She noted that the approved rounding out of the Hampton hamlet will potentially be
impacted by the 2017 Growth Plan changes which came into effect after the adoption of
OPA 107. Ms. Savini advised the Members of Council that the Province is allowing for
submissions on the proposed changes to Transition Regulation O. Reg 311/06 which
would include any specific planning matters that should be addressed. She added that
this can include any Official Plan Amendments that have been adopted or are under
appeal. Ms. Savini continued by asking the Municipality of Clarington to make a
submission to the Province requesting that Section 12.4.6 of OPA 107 be grandfathered
as it was approved prior to the effective date of the 2017 Growth Plan. She further
requested that the Municipality of Clarington provide a submission requesting that the
minor rounding of hamlet boundaries be determined at a local level. Ms. Savini
concluded by asking Council to consider their request, and if approved, for it to be
submitted to the Province by February 28, 2019. Ms. Savini answered questions from
the Members of Council.

Molinari explained that the rounding out was approved as part of OPA 107 and the
Region of Durham deferred the rounding out pending further studies. She requested
that Council request the rounding out be exempt from the policies in the 2017 Growth
Plan as OPA 107 was approved prior to its enactment and, that the rounding out of
hamlet boundaries be determined at the local level. Ms Molinari concluded by asking
the Municipality of Clarington to include these requests with their submission to the
Province. She answered questions from the Members of Council.
