Todd Brown and Claire Tucker-Reid, Monteith Brown Planning Consultants, addressed
the Committee regarding Report CSD-015-08. Mr. Brown provided the Committee with
an overall view of the Vision, Mission, Guiding Principles, Goals and Targets for the
Community Services Department. Mr. Brown informed the Members that by 2016 the
population is expected to grow by 23% with the greatest growth rate expected to be in
the younger adults (20 - 34) and older adults (55+). Mr. Brown highlighted the key
leisure trends. Local stakeholders as well as the general public were consulted through
surveys and the outcome was that through the household survey respondents most
frequently participated in swimming, aerobics/fitness/weight-training, ice sports, and
indoor running/walking. The highest demand was placed on indoor and outdoor
swimming, availability of additional ice time, and drop in programs for youth and
leadership. Mr. Brown provided the Members with the Guideline Principles which are:
Community Leadership, Building a Healthy Community, Meeting the Needs of a Diverse
Community, Building Community Partnerships, Supporting Volunteers, Maintaining
Infrastructure, and Fiscal Accountability. Ms. Tucker-Reid conveyed the twelve key
targets for the Recreation Services Division, including: Pricing, Partnerships, Services
for People with Disabilities, Volunteers, Youth Services, Fitness Discipline and Training
Facility Review, and Programming. Ms. Brown was very impressed with how well the
current facilities are run and commented on how well the staff was trained. She
informed the Committee that they would like to see the Strategic Plan be considered for
approval by Council and consider targets through future evaluation and budgeting
processes. Staff will be bringing forward reports on individual initiatives for approval
from Council.

General Purpose and Administration Committee
Minutes
June 2, 2008
Mehran Monabbati, SENES, addressed the Committee regarding Air Emissions
Standards. Mr. Monabbati presented to the Committee an overview of how a Massive
Solid Waste Incinerator (MSWI) works and what emissions may result from a MSWI.
He described the air pollution control technology associated with an MSWI and the
difference between wet, spray drying and dry sulphur removal. Mr. Monabbati stated
there are federal limits set for emissions from MSWI but Ontario has emission limits
from MSWI which are set out in the Ministry of Environments guideline A-7, 2004.
These guidelines are technology based and enforceable through EPA. Mr. Monabbati
described the US Limits, Guidelines and Standards, and stated these vary depending
on which state is host to the incinerator. He informed the Committee of the
recommended emission limits and the two types of emission monitoring, and described
the details of a Certificate of Approval.
DELEGATIONS
Jaison Gibson regarding Free Speech, Public Podium and Civil Disobedience was
called but was not in attendance.
Richard Ward addressed the Committee regarding taxes. Mr. Ward informed the
Committee his garbage is now being collected but would like for the Committee to
request that the surcharges from the months prior be waived as he was paying for a
service which he was not receiving. Mr. Ward informed the Committee that an official
request for the designation to commercial still has not been filed with the Planning
Services Department, but he did file a rezoning application. He believes there has been
an abuse of expert opinion given on behalf of the Municipality and Mr. Ward requested
that a criminal investigation of criminal conspiracy be launched.
Glenn Genge, D.G. Biddle & Associates addressed the Committee regarding Report
PSD-058-08. He informed the Committee that he reviewed the Report and was
available for questions. There were no questions for Mr. Genge.
Robert Colby previously withdrew his request to address the Committee regarding the
EFW facility.
Kristin Robinson addressed the Committee regarding the health studies on the
proposed EFW facility. Ms. Robinson expressed concerns over the omission of costs
for health monitoring in the business case and would like to have seen the business
case referred back to Health and Social Services for review and comments. Ms.
Robinson questioned Deloitte's qualifications to make statements about EFW. She
would like to see a comprehensive plan developed with regards to the EFW incinerator
and feels that money should not be negotiated in exchange for the public's health. She
would like to have Clarington request an extensive independent peer review with
regards to the emission standards and declare Clarington an unwilling host. As well she
requested the waste be sorted before it goes in the incinerator. Ms. Robinson
presented the Committee with petitions signed by over 500 residents regarding EFW
and the proposed incinerator.

PUBLIC MEETING
(a)
Subject:
Report:
Proposed Amendment to the Development Charges By-Law
2005-1 08
FND-012-08
Craig Binning, Hemson Consulting provided the Committee with a verbal report
supported by a PowerPoint presentation pertaining to Report FND-012-08. Mr. Binning
informed the Committee the current development charges are too low and he is
recommending that by-law 2005-108, associated to development charges be amended.
All services were considered, both general and engineered. Mr. Binning stated the
growth forecast is critical and highlighted growth related to capital programs as well as
calculated development charges. He realizes it is a significant increase on the non-
residential side but advises that it is necessary due to: higher construction costs, capital
costs exceeding indexing rates, increased service levels, and projects advancing earlier
than predicted. He advised the Committee the effective date is suggested for July 1,
2008 and the end date will remain at 2010.
Randy Grimes, Consultant for Metrus, IBI Group, spoke in opposition to Report
FND-012-08. Mr. Grimes found the workshop provided by Hemson Consulting to be
very informative and he would like to see the increase percentage between 5% -
5 1/2%. He would like clarification on the road study that was done as well as
clarification on the soft services from 2005 and 2008 studies. Mr. Grimes stated he did
not fully understand the excess capacity amount which was considered, and regarding
the cash flow for the Public Library and Recreation, he questioned why the population
was discounted. Mr. Grimes agreed to submit his questions in writing.
Mr. Wayne Clarke, Co-Chair Durham Region Home Builders Association, spoke in
opposition to Report FND-012-08. He informed the Committee the Association is still
reviewing the Report and hopes to have this review finalized by the end of the week.
He asked the Committee to consider a phase-in with the first part being implemented
July 1, 2008, and the second phase in January 2009. He would like to see existing
developments allowed at the old rates and any new development would be at the new
rates. Mr. Clarke has concerns the new rates will cause a reduction in the non-
residential development for Clarington. He expressed concerns with regards the
quantum calculations.

General Purpose and Administration Committee
Minutes
June 2, 2008
Kelvin Whalen, Kaitlin Group, spoke in opposition to Report FND-012-08. Mr. Whalen's
concerns are with the quantum amount and felt it was unfair to compare Clarington with
areas such as Richmond Hill and Markham as they are closer to Toronto. He informed
the Committee if the increase is implemented in a one-step process it could have a
dramatic effect on the area. He would like Council to consider a phase-in option such
as 1/3 - July 1, 2008, 1/3 - January 1, 2009, and 1/3 - July 1,2009. He would like the
homes that have already been sold to be allowed to have the permits at the old rate and
he looks forward to the continued dialogue with staff.
No one spoke in support to Report FND-012-08.

1.0 APPLICATION DETAILS
1.1 Applicant/Owner: Prestonvale Road Land Corporation
1.2 Proposal: To rezone the subject lands from "Holding - Urban Residential
Exception ((H)R2-44)" and "Holding - Urban Residential Exception
((H)R2-45)" to an appropriate zone to permit single detached
dwellings with garage projections beyond the dwelling's front wall or
covered porch projection and garage widths in excess of 40% of
the width of the lot frontage.
1.3 Site Affected: Eighteen (18) lots with 1 0 metre frontages zoned ((H)R2-44) and
thirty-three (33) lots with 12 metre frontages zoned ((H)R2-45).
1.4 Location: The subject lands are located in Courtice, east of Prestonvale Road
and the majority of the application is on the north side of Oke Road
(Attachment 1). The property is contained within Part Lots 32 and
33, Concession 2, and part of the former road allowance between
Lots 32 and 33, Concession 2,in the former Township of Darlington.
2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 On May 2, 2008 the applicant/owner submitted an application to the Municipality of
Clarington to rezone the subject lots to change the permitted garage projections and
garage widths on single detached dwellings within Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision
S-C-2007 -0003. At this time there are no dwellings under construction as the applicant
has not entered into a subdivision agreement with the Municipality nor has the Plan of
Subdivision been registered.
2.2 In October 2007, S-C-2007-003 was considered by Council. Council recommended
approval of the subdivision and approved the zoning by-law amendment to implement
the Draft Plan of Subdivision. Shortly after receiving draft approval, the applicant's
architect prepared house designs for the subdivision. The designs prepared complied
with the Municipality's Architectural Control Guidelines but did not take into
consideration the approved zoning.
2.3 The applicant had their sales brochures and marketing information printed for future
purchasers. When the applicant began to prepare individual lot grading plans, it was
noted that not all the dwellings would meet the Zoning By-law requirements. Due to the
time and expense of re-designing, re-printing, and re-submitting for approval, the
applicant has instead submitted the rezoning application for Council's consideration.
2.4 The applicant has a total of nine (9) models for this development. Four (4) of the
models do not comply with the zoning requirements. One model for the 10 metre
frontage lots (R2-44) does not comply for either garage projection beyond the dwellings
front wall or covered porch, or garage width in excess of 40% of the width of the lot.
Three models for the 12 metre frontage lots (R2-45) do not comply for garage width in
excess of 40% of the width of the lot.

4.0 PROVINCIAL POLICIES
4.1 Provincial Policy Statement
This application would be consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement.
4.2 Growth Plan
This application would conform with the Growth Plan.
5.0 OFFICIAL PLANS
5.1 Durham ReQional Official Plan
The Durham Regional Official Plan designates the land "Living Area" within the "Urban
System". Lands designated "Living Areas" shall be predominantly used for housing
purposes. The application seeks to change the site specific zoning for architectural
design of the dwelling. The proposed use, single detached dwellings, will conform with
the policies of the Durham Regional Official Plan.
5.2 ClarinQton Official Plan
The Clarington Official Plan designates the land "Urban Residential" and is slated for
low density development. Low Density development is for 10-30 units per net ha, and is
predominantly for single detached and semi-detachedllink dwellings. Low density areas
are generally internal to neighbourhoods and are not abutting arterial roads.
The Clarington Official Plan also includes urban design principles which state that
house designs should incorporate features such as prominent entrances and front
porches, and that garages should not be the dominant feature of the streetscape or the
house.
While the proposal relaxes the requirements of the Zoning By-law to reduce the
prominence of the garage, staff find that the application is in conformity with the Official
Plan.

6.0 ZONING BY-LAW
6.1 Zoning By-law 84-63 as amended, zones the subject land "Holding - Urban Residential
Exception (H(R2-44))" and "Holding - Urban Residential Exception (H(R2-45))". The
applicant has applied to rezone a portion of the Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision to
permit garage projections beyond the dwelling's front wall or covered porch projection,
and garage widths in excess of 40% of the width of the lot frontage of 1 0 metres, as
currently required by the Zoning By-law.
6.2 The zoning for this subdivision was approved in October 2007 as Holding - Urban
Residential Exception (H(R2-44)) and "Holding - Urban Residential Exception (H(R2-
45)). These zones require that garage doors shall not be located any closer to the
street line than the dwelling's front wall or exterior side wall or covered porch projection
and in the "R2-44" zone only, that the outside width of the garage shall be a maximum
of 40% of the width of the lot frontage.
7.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSION
7.1 Public notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject site
and a public meeting notice sign was installed on the property.
7.2 At the writing of this report no written or verbal concerns had been received by the
Planning Services Department.
8.0 AGENCY COMMENTS
8.1 All agencies/departments circulated this application had no objections or comments.
9.0 STAFF COMMENTS
9.1 Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision, S-C-2007-0003, is an infill subdivision comprised of
a new section of Oke Road and Rex Tooley Lane. It is located between existing
dwellings fronting on Prestonvale Road, Oke Road and Beechnut Crescent. Dwellings
on Oke Road and Beechnut Crescent were constructed between 1988 and 1992. The
zoning requirements at that time had no restriction on garage projections or on the
maximum width of an attached garage.
The dwellings on the east side of Prestonvale Road are currently under construction
and are required to meet a maximum projection of 3 metres in front of the dwelling unit
for an attached garage. There is no restriction on the maximum width of an attached
garage.
804
REPORT NO.: PSD-059-08
PAGE 5
9.2 In 2002 the Municipality of Clarington introduced Architectural Control Guidelines to
improve the aesthetics of residential subdivisions. More recently, the Municipality has
been further regulating attached garages through stricter zoning requirements.
9.3 The subdivision is an infill development in a community that has developed over several
years and has different housing styles in terms of garage projections and widths relative
to the lot. The zoning amendment approved for this site provides a more restrictive
requirement on garage projections. A number of the models comply with the more
restrictive requirement and all comply with the Municipality's Architectural Control
Standards. In consideration of the number of lots in question and the infill nature of this
proposal staff have no objection to the requested changes provided that no significant
issues are raised at the Public Meeting.
9.4 The "Urban Residential Exception (R2-44) Zone" for 10 metre frontage lots, requires
that the garage door shall not be located any closer to the street line than the dwelling's
front wall or exterior side wall or covered porch projection and that the outside width of
the garage shall be a maximum of 40% of the width of the lot frontage. There are
eighteen (18) 10 metre frontage lots, fronting on Rex Tooley Lane. Within the "R2-44"
zone, there are three (3) models proposed by the builder. One (1) of these (shown
below) does not comply with the attached garage requirements for garage projection
and garage width. The proposed attached garage projection is 1.98 metres (6.5 ft) and
the proposed garage width is 44% of the lot width.
9.5 Staff is proposing through the Zoning
By-law Amendment in Attachment 2,
a new exception zone for the 10
metre frontage lots that permits an
attached garage projection of a
maximum of 2.0 metres from the front
wall of the dwelling or exterior side
wall or the covered porch and a
maximum garage width of 44% of the
lot width (4.4 metres) for a maximum
of 33% of the lots currently in the
"R2-44" zone.
Through the building permit review
process, staff and the control
architect for the Municipality, will
track the number of permits issued to
ensure that the 33% is not exceeded.
9.6 The "Urban Residential Exception (R2-45) Zone" for 12 metre frontage lots requires that
garage doors shall not be located any closer to the street line than the dwelling's front
wall or exterior side wall or covered porch projection. There are thirty-three (33) lots
within this "R2-45" zone.
805
REPORT NO.: PSD-059-08
PAGE 6
9.7 Within the "R2-45" zone, the builder is proposing six (6) models. Of these six (6)
models, the three (3) shown do not comply with the garage projection requirements.
The model drawings propose that the
garage would project beyond the front
wall of the dwelling or the covered
porch ranging from 1.12 metres (3.7 ft)
up to 1.22 metres (4.0 ft).
In the Zoning By-law Amendment
contained in Attachment 2, staff
proposes that a new exception zone
for the lots with a minimum lot frontage
of 12 metres permit a maximum
garage projection of 1.25 metres from
the front wall of the dwelling or exterior
side wall or the covered porch for up to
50% of the lots zoned "R2-45".
9.8 Clarington Finance advises that for the subject lands all taxes have been paid
satisfactorily.

1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 On September 24, 2007, Council adopted a Resolution #C-488-07 directing staff to
proceed with a Zoning By-law amendment allowing recreation vehicles to be parked
within a garage; restrict the size and number of the recreational vehicles parked and/or
stored on a residential property; and to provide limited timeframes for vehicles that are
larger than a proposed size.
1.2 The direction to regulate recreational vehicles was a result of resident complaints
regarding the parking of recreational vehicles on private residential properties. Through
the Clerk's Department investigation, it was determined that the most effective way to
regulate recreational vehicle parking was by amending the Zoning By-law.
1.3 Currently the Municipality's Zoning By-law has no specific regulation for recreational
vehicles in residential areas.
1.4 In addition to providing regulations for recreational vehicles and trailers, this amendment
proposes a number of other changes as follows:
. Modifications to regulations for Accessory Buildings and Structures and Uses
based on current trends in minor variance applications and changes brought
forward by other local municipalities.
. A modification to the definition of cartage or transport depot is also contemplated.
. In accordance with Section 15.3.1 of the Official Plan, Aggregate Extraction Areas
which have had their licenses surrendered will be rezoned in accordance with the
underlying Official Plan designation. This last item is considered a housekeeping
item.
2.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS
2.1 Notice of the public meeting was provided in accordance with the provisions of the
Planning Act and the Municipality of Clarington Official Plan. Notice was placed in the
Clarington This Week on May 16, 2008 and the Orono Times on May 21,2008.
2.2 Numerous general inquiries were received from the public. One gentleman indicated
that he was happy with the proposed regulations for parking recreational vehicles in a
driveway as his neighbour's motor home extends over the boulevard. Another
gentleman suggested larger recreational vehicles and trailers be permitted in a driveway
for one week per month rather than the proposed 72 hours.
2.3 In addition to the Public Meeting, staff will host a public information centre on June 12,
2008, after the writing of this report, to present the proposed amendment to the public
and receive feedback.
813
REPORT NO.: PSD-060-08
PAGE 3
3.0 AGENCY COMMENTS
3.1 The proposed Zoning By-law Amendment was circulated to relevant agencies for
comment. The Clarington By-law Enforcement Division is finalizing their review and
comments on the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment.
3.2 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority and the Ganaraska Region
Conservation Authority offered no objections to the proposed amendment.
3.3 The Region of Durham Planning Department indicated that the proposed Aggregate
Areas to be rezoned are already removed from the Durham Regional Official Plan.
Section 9D.2.2 of the Durham Regional Official Plan indicates aggregate resource
extraction areas no longer licenced shall only be used for those uses permitted within
"Prime Agricultural Areas", and within the "Greenlands System". The section further
indicates the respective Zoning By-laws be appropriately amended. The five aggregate
extraction areas proposed to be rezoned all have their licence cancelled, surrendered,
or revoked. Thus, the proposed amendment conforms to the Regional Official Plan.
This application has been screened in accordance with the terms of the Provincial plan
review responsibilities. There are no matters of Provincial interest applicable to this
proposed general amendment to Zoning By-law 84-63.
3.4 The Clarington Building Division requested that all accessory buildings and structures
have a minimum height of 4 metres in order to accommodate an adequate roof slope on
buildings or structures with standard height walls and a width in excess of 3.4 metres.
It was also noted that townhouse lots with frontages of 6 metres and rear lanes may not
be able to accommodate a detached garage within 10 per cent of the total lot area. If
the 10 per cent lot coverage is approved, and 6 metre wide lots are .contemplated in the
future, it may be necessary to implement site specific zoning to provide adequate lot
coverage for detached garages.
3.5 The Clarington Engineering Services Department does not endorse or advocate the
construction of accessory structures with a setback of less than 1.2 metres. To facilitate
maintenance of the structures, fences, adjacent landscaping and drainage swales a
setback requirement of 1.2 metres needs to be maintained. Current Municipality of
Clarington Design Criteria for storm drainage in urban residential areas allows tributary
drainage areas of up to 0.1 hectares. The Municipality's guideline for swales provides
for 150 mm in depth and with appropriate side slopes. Proper accommodation of many
drainage swales warrants a setback of 1.2 metres in order to facilitate construction of a
drainage swale that is not only adequately sized but that also provides ease of
maintenance to a residential property owner.
In addition to the above-noted comments we would also advise that many of the
currently permitted zoning setbacks within urban residential areas are not compatible
with the Municipality of Clarington Design Criteria for lot grading. They request that in
conjunction with the review process for these proposed amendments that a general
review of urban residential setbacks be undertaken.
814
REPORT NO.: PSD-060-08
PAGE 4
All other concerns have been addressed through adjustments to the proposed
modifications.
4.0 STAFF COMMENTS
4.1 Trailer and Recreational Vehicle ParkinQ in Residential Zones
4.1.1 It is proposed that trailers and recreational vehicles not exceeding 2.4 metres in height
and 5.5 metres in length may be parked on a driveway in an urban rf3sidential zone.
Trailers exceeding this size may be parked in a driveway for not more than 72 hours in
one month provided a setback of 0.5 metres from the property line is maintained. This
recognizes that residents need adequate time to prepare for a vacation while protecting
sidewalks from obstructions.
4.1.2 Other than the driveway, parking and storage of recreational vehicles is limited to the
side and rear yards. In an urban residential zone the size is restricted to 6 metres in
length and 2.9 metres in height. Given the significant size of these vehicles it is
appropriate to limit there size as they could impact adjacent properties similarly to an
accessory structure.
4.1.3 Storage of trailers or recreational vehicles is not limited to size or number provided they
are within a permitted accessory building or structure. However, in an urban residential
zone, only one trailer or recreation vehicle is permitted to be stored or parked in the
open. In rural residential zones and agricultural zones two are permitted.
4.1.4 The regulation for visibility triangles has also been modified to ensure trailers or
recreational vehicles are not parked or stored within a visibility triangle on a corner lot.
4.1.5 A definition of Recreational Vehicle is proposed to include all recreational trailers,
snowmobiles, boats, personal watercraft, and all-terrain vehicles. Definitions are also
proposed to distinguish between urban and rural residential zones.
4.1.6 The proposed regulations will make it difficult for residents in urban residential zones to
legally store large recreational vehicles and trailers on their property. Many urban lots
would not accommodate access to the side and rear yards for storage. As such, there
will be an increased demand for storage facilities. Currently there are a number of
outdoor storage facilities for recreational vehicles which are operating without the
appropriate zoning in place. The By-law Enforcement Division has been in contact with
these facilities to advise that their properties must be brought into compliance with the
Zoning By-law.
4.2 Accessory BuildinQs. Structures and Uses
4.2.1 Currently Zoning By-law 84-63 ties the total lot coverage permitted for accessory
buildings and structures to 40 percent of the main building total floor area. The
application of this regulation has not been easy for the general public to apply as they
first must determine the floor area of their dwelling. This can be particularly difficult in
815
REPORT NO.: PSD-060-08
PAGE 5
the case of a finished basement. The floor area of a finished basement can only be
applied if at least half of the basement walls are above the average finished grade level
on the exterior of the dwelling. This is also difficult for staff to confirm without
undertaking site inspections.
4.2.2 To simplify this regulation, lot coverage is proposed to be 10% of the total lot area for
residential, agricultural and public uses. Fifty percent of the ground floor area is
proposed as lot coverage for commercial and industrial zones. It should be noted that
in agriculture zones, barns are not an accessory structure.
In consideration of larger lot sizes, a cap on the permitted floor area is proposed at 90
m2 (969 sq. ft.) for rural residential or agricultural zones and 60 m2 (646 sq. ft.) for all
urban residential zones and all other zone categories. The 90 m2 maximum is also
consistent with By-law 109-2005 for the Oak Ridges Morraine. The maximum lot
coverage for both the principle and accessory buildings and structures of the respective
zone category also applies.
4.2.3 Currently the maximum height permitted for accessory buildings and structures is 5
meters. It was assumed in the past that this height would limit the potential for a second
storey or loft area in an accessory structure. However, second stories and loft spaces
have been accomplished through creative design. In some instances the massing of
such structures has not been appropriate, particularly in an urban residential area with
smaller lots.
In order to refine the height requirement, a maximum height of 3 metres is proposed for
buildings and structures with floor areas less than 10m2 (107 sq. ft.). For all other
accessory buildings or structures in urban residential zones, a maximum height of 4
metres is proposed. All other zones would allow a maximum height of 4.5 metres.
4.2.4 The most significant change is a proposed side and rear setback of 0.6 metres in an
urban residential zone as opposed to the current 1.2 metres. A reduction in these yards
is a typical minor variance request and is consistent with the setbacks permitted in
many other Municipalities across the Province. The setback is currently measured from
the eaves and gutters which is difficult to determine on most surveys that illustrate
building footprints. In order to recognize the 0.6 metre setback from the wall, a
maximum projection of 0.3 metres into the setback is allowed for eaves and gutters.
This is a consistent approach with how setbacks are defined for dwellings.
4.2.5 A new exterior side yard setback of 1.2 metres is also proposed for all accessory
buildings and structures with the exception of a detached garage. This will be
particularly beneficial for residents who wish to install a swimming pool on a corner lot.
Currently, a minor variance to reduce the exterior side yard is often required in order to
install a swimming pool.
4.2.6 An exclusion of trailers or portable buildings from being used as accessory structure has
also been added. The use of these structures has been a source of numerous
complaints due to their aesthetic quality.

4.2.7 Section 3.16 f) permits buildings for the parking or storage of buses and commercial
motor vehicles to have a 150 m2 floor area on a non-farm related residential lot in an
agricultural zone. This would be a "loophole" around the proposed changes for the size
of accessory buildings, as it is difficult to determine if buildings proposed under this
section will actually be used for the intended purpose. Staff therefore propose that this
section be deleted. Any proposed building for this purpose would need to proceed by
site-specific Zoning Amendment.
4.3 Cartaoe or Transport Depot
4.3.1 The Zoning By-law currently contains two similar definitions for one land use: one for
"Cartage or Transport Depot" and a second for "Transport or Cartage Depot". A
technical amendment is proposed to consolidate these land use definitions and to
require that a "Cartage or Transport Depot" must have a building constructed. This is to
ensure that the lands could not simply be developed as a parking lot.
4.4 Aooreoate Extraction Areas
4.4.1 Section 15.3.1 of the Clarington Official Plan indicates that the Municipality will amend
the Zoning By-law to delete aggregate extraction and associated uses once the
aggregate extraction licence is revoked or surrendered. The overlay Aggregate
Extraction Area designation is deleted from the Official Plan, without the need for a
formal amendment, leaving the underlying permanent designation.
4.4.2 Six properties have had their licences surrendered and it is now appropriate to rezone
those in accordance with the corresponding Official Plan designation. The location of
the properties is contained in Attachment 4.
5.0 CONCLUSIONS
5.1 It is recommended that the Application to Amend the Zoning By-law continue to be
reviewed to address outstanding issues and concerns raised at the Public Meeting.

1.0 PROPOSAL DETAILS
1.1 Proponent:
The Municipality of Clarington
1.2 Rezoning:
To change portions of the current zoning to permit the development
of four residential lots with a minimum lot frontage of 15 metres
each
0.95 hectares
1.3 Site Area:
2.0 LOCATION
2.1 The subject lands are located at the northeast corner of Trulls Road North and George
Reynolds Drive, 3289 Trulls Road North, Courtice (Attachment 1).
3.0 SITE CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING LAND USES
3.1 The south west portion of the property is currently occupied by the former Courtice Fire
Station. To the east and north east of the parking lot is a wooded area which contains a
portion of the Harmony-Farewell Iroquois Beach Provincially Significant Wetland.
3.2 Surrounding Uses
North - large lot residential
South - 12 metre wide residential lots
East - George Reynolds Parkette
West - 12 metre wide residential lots
4.0 BACKGROUND
4.1 In November 2001 Council acquired a site at 2611 Trulls Road for a new fire station in
Courtice. The new station opened in June of 2005. The building on the property
subject to this application has been vacant since the new station was occupied. At a
meeting held on September 25th, 2006, Council passed resolution #GPA-341-06
declaring the property identified as 3289 Trulls Road as surplus and offered for sale.
4.2 At a meeting held on March 26th, 2007 Council passed resolution GPA-278-07
authorizing the Chief Administrative Officer to make application for rezoning of the
property, and to have the necessary reports prepared including an Environmental Site
Assessment, an Environmental Impact Study, and engineering/survey plans. The funds
to prepare the site for sale are to be drawn from the Municipal Acquisition Reserve
Account.
828
REPORT NO.: PSD-061-08
PAGE 3
4.3 The application to amend Zoning By-law 84-63 for 3289 Trulls Road North was deemed
complete on May 9th, 2008. The submission included a Phase 1 and Phase 2
Environmental Site Assessment and a draft Natural Heritage Evaluation.
5.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY
5.1 Provincial Policv Statement
Planning authorities are required to provide for a range of housing types and densities.
A ten year supply of designated residential lands and a three year supply of residentially
zoned and serviced lands are required. New housing is to be directed to locations
where infrastructure and public services are available. The application is consistent
with the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement.
5.2 Provincial Growth Plan
The Provincial Growth Plan directs growth to built-up areas where the capacity exists to
best accommodate the expected population. The guiding principles include building
compact, vibrant and complete communities while optimizing the use of existing and
new infrastructure to support growth in a compact efficient form. This application for
zoning amendment conforms with the Provincial Growth Plan.
6.0 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES
6.1 Durham Reqional Official Plan
The lands are designated Living Area within the Durham Regional Official Plan. Living
Areas shall be used predominantly for housing purposes. A Key Natural Heritage and
Hydrologic Feature is identified on the property. The application conforms to the Living
Area policies and the environmental goals of the Durham Regional Official Plan.
6.2 Clarinqton Official Plan
This property is designated Urban Residential and Environmental Protection in the
Clarington Official Plan. The predominant use of lands designated Urban Residential
shall be for housing purposes. Environmental Protection Areas are recognized as the
most significant components of the Municipality's natural environment. As such, these
areas and their ecological functions are to be preserved and protected from the effects
of human activity. The precise limits of these Areas are to be determined in
consultation with the Conservation Authority. Central Lake Ontario Conservation has
prepared a draft Natural Heritage Evaluation of the property which is discussed in
Section 10 of this report.
A tributary of Farewell Creek runs through the eastern portion of the property and the lot
contains a Wetland and a Significant Valleyland. The wetland is a part of the Harmony-
829
REPORT NO.: PSD-061-08
PAGE 4
Farewell Iroquois Beach Provincially Significant Wetland and the limits are identified on
Attachment 1. The application conforms to the Clarington Official Plan.
7.0 ZONING BY-LAW
7.1 The lands are zoned "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" under
Zoning by-law 84-63. The majority of the property is currently zoned Environmental
Protection (Attachment 2). There is a small section of Agricultural zoning in the
southeast corner and a larger section of EP zoning in the northwest corner. The fire
station building and parking area are located within the EP zone boundary, as shown on
Attachment 1. The station was constructed in 1979, prior to the approval of By-law 84-
63.
8.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS
8.1 Public Notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject site.
Public Meeting signs were installed on the property along the Trulls Road and George
Reynolds Drive frontages. No public inquires have been received on the proposal as of
the writing of this report.
9.0 AGENCY COMMENTS
9.1 The application has been circulated to the appropriate department and agencies for
comment. No agency responses have been received as of the writing of this report.
9.2 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority has prepared a draft Natural Heritage
Evaluation of the property which is discussed in Section 10 of this report. Any additional
comments they may have on the application have not been received to date.
10.0 STAFF COMMENTS
10.1 Proposed Rezoning
Attachment 2 depicts the proposed zoning changes to the former Town of Newcastle
Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63. The area proposed for the four residential lots
will be changed from Agricultural (A) and/ or Environmental Protection (EP) to (Holding)
Urban Residential Exception (R1-70) Zone. The R1-70 zone will require the lot to be
developed in accordance with today's urban design standards. The A zoning in the
southeast corner abutting the Parkette will be changed to EP. A road widening is
required along Trulls Road and George Reynolds Drive. This area will be rezoned from
A to (H)R1-70 on the western portion. The remainder of the road widening will remain
as it is currently zoned.
830
REPORT NO.: PSD-061-08
PAGE 5
10.2 Phase 1 and Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment
A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment was conducted in May of 2007. The results
of the assessment indicated that there were low to moderate potential for environmental
impacts to the property. Many years ago there was a spill of approximately 20 to 30 L
of diesel fuel onto the ground near a former diesel fuel aboveground storage tank, and
the contents of a corroded drum observed in an outdoor metal shed, could not be
confirmed. As a result a Phase 2 Assessment was completed.
The Phase 2 Assessment indicated that no evidence of petroleum contamination was
observed, no combustible vapour concentrations were measurable during the shallow
vapour survey, no evidence of petroleum vapour concentrations, odours or staining
were detected during a teat pit program, and no evidence of petroleum impacts were
detected during a water well decommissioning. The existing wells on the site were
decommissioned as part of the Phase 2 Assessment. The report concluded that
concentrations of petroleum parameters did not exceed the Ministry of Environment site
condition standards. The property is suitable for planned future residential uses.
10.3 Natural Heritage Evaluation
Central Lake Ontario Conservation assisted the Municipality by preparing a draft Natural
Heritage Evaluation on the property. The report indicates that the eastern portion of the
property has been identified as an area of high environmental sensitivity within the
Authority's Environmental Sensitivity mapping project, that there is a provincially
significant wetland on the property, and that the existing natural features have been
classified under their Ecological Land Classification system.
Authority staff state that a proposal for residential lots within the existing developed
portion of the property could be supported. They recommend that appropriate fencing
be installed along the boundary between lot 4 and the woodlot to limit intrusion into the
natural features by the public and domestic pets, and that future homeowners be
provided with a homeowners package which would describe the environmental
sensitivity of the area and offer suggestions in regards to landscaping practices and
other measures that could be undertaken to preserve the sensitivity of the surrounding
natural areas.
As the Natural Heritage Evaluation was submitted as a draft, additional comments may
be provided when the final report is received.
10.4 Staff will continue to address any issues that may arise, as well as the Departmental
and agency comments.
11.0 CONCLUSIONS
11.1 The purpose of this report is to satisfy the Public Meeting requirements under the
Planning Act and taking into consideration the outstanding comments, staff respectfully
request that this report be received and for staff to continue processing the application
including the preparation of a subsequent report upon resolution of the identified issues.

REPORT NO.: PSD-062-0S
PAGE 2
1. On May 4, 2007, Adesallmpact Auto submitted applications to the Municipality of
Clarington for the development of a motor vehicle re-marketing, auction and logistics
facility. As part of the proposed development they required extensive outdoor storage
for motor vehicles and thus requested an amendment to the policies of the General
Industrial Area designation to increase the outdoor storage permitted from 50% to 70%
of a 19 ha property.
2. A decision was made on April 7, 2008, by Clarington Council to deny the Official Plan
Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment applications. Council, in their decision,
found the proposal to be an inappropriate development for the Courtice Industrial Area.
A copy of Council's resolution in its entirety is contained in Attachment 2.
3. The applicant's subsequently appealed the decision on the Official Plan Amendment
and Zoning By-law Amendment to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). The applicant
has also appealed the site plan application, which did not require a Council decision,
and was not approved, to the OMB and have requested the Board hold a consolidated
hearing to consider all three applications at one time. A copy of the applicant's appeal
letters are contained in Attachment 3 (Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning Appeal)
and Attachment 4 (site plan appeal).
4. Municipal staff produced a report recommending approval of an official plan amendment
and zoning by-law amendment for the Adesallmpact Auto site. As such, in addition to
the municipal solicitor, Council will need to retain the appropriate consultants to defend
the decision. The municipal solicitor will present a separate, confidential report to
Council on this matter.
5. There were no other appeals of the applications from outside parties.
6. At this time, a date for an OMB hearing has not been set. Although the applicant had
initially indicated that they did not believe this matter would benefit from a Pre-Hearing
Conference, they have now stated that there may be benefit from a Pre-hearing
conference.

Item #6
Resolution #C-183-08
Moved by Mayor Abernethy, seconded by Councillor Hooper
WHEREAS the Clarington Council has duly considered the applications submitted by
ADESA Auto Auctions Corporation (Adesa) and Impact Auto Auctions Limited
(Impact) to amend the Clarington Official Plan and the Zoning By-law 84-63;
WHEREAS the General Purpose and Administration Committee made a
recommendation to Council to permit only "roadworthy" motor vehicles;
WHEREAS the legal counsel for Adesa and Impact have advised by a letter dated
April 2, 2008 that limiting the use to "roadworthy" motor vehicles was not acceptable to
their operation;
WHEREAS Council has concerns regarding potential environmental practices and
potential for environmental contamination from the processing of 30,000 motor
vehicles annually and the storage of up to 5,000 total loss (salvage) vehicles on the
Adesallmpact site at any given time;
WHEREAS the Courtice Urban Area currently has one salvage auto auction facility
and one off-lease and dealer consignment auto auction facility and two auto
recycling/salvage yard operations which comprise approximately 110 acres of lands;
WHEREAS Council has concerns with respect to the opening of a new industrial area
for a 47 acre auto auction facility for primarily salvage vehicles which in Council's view
would stigmatize the area with respect to being able to attract other new industry;
WHEREAS Council has concerns that the location of additional auction facilities could
attract further auto wreckers and salvage operations to Courtice;
WHEREAS the imminent opening of the new Courtice Water Pollution Control Plan
provides the much needed municipal infrastructure to Clarington for the attraction of
good industrial base for Clarington with the future extension of trunk sewer services;
839
Council Meeting Minutes
- 24-
April 7, 2008
WHEREAS, despite the efforts of Adesa and Impact to provide for the planned future
road network, Council has concerns with respect to the orderly development of the
Courtice industrial area through the approval of large, outdoor industrial use for
salvage motor vehicles that is not in compliance with the intent of the Municipality's
Official Plan;
WHEREAS Council has concerns that the materials presented in support of the
application and representations made to Council have not provided an accurate
portrayal of the intent of applicant for the use of the lands for primarily salvage
vehicles and the environmental practices followed on site;
WHEREAS after duly weighing the materials provided by Adesa and Impact, the
potential environmental issues, the stigma that would be placed on new industrial area
and the potential impact on the orderly development of the Courtice industrial area on
full municipal services, Clarington Council has determined that the approval of the
Adesallmpact application is not in the public interest;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:
THAT Report PSD-035-08 be received;
THAT the application to amend the Clarington Official Plan application submitted by
ADESA Auctions Canada Corporation and Impact Auto Auctions Limited (File: COPA
2007 -0007) be refused;

PSD-035-08 and any delegation be advised of Council's decision.

Dear Ms. Barrie:
Re: Notice of Appeal Pursuant to Section 22(7) of the Planning Act
Adesa Auctions Canada Corporation and Impact Auto Auctions
Ltd.
We are counsel to Adesa Auctions Canada Corporation and Impact Auto Auctions
Ltd., owners of an equitable interest in approximately 19.1 hectares of land within
Part Lot 31, Concession 1, former Township of Darlington, municipally known as
1550 Trulls Road in Courtice ("the Property"). Our clients wish to operate a motor
vehicle re-marketing, auction and logistics facility on the Property.
On May 4, 2007, our clients submitted an official plan amendment application to
permit an increase in the outdoor storage permitted on the Property from 50% to
70% to facilitate its proposed operations. On April 7, 2008, our clients' application
was refused by Council.
The purpose of this letter is to appeal our clients' official plan amendment
application to the Ontario Municipal Board ("the Board") pursuant to section 22(7)
of the Planning Act. The reasons for the appeal are as follows:
1. Council has refused the application;
2. The proposed development is consistent with provincial policy and
represents good planning in the public interest;
3. Such further and other reasons as counsel may advise and the Board may
permit.

Please find enclosed a completed Board Appeal Form and our firm cheque in the
amount of $125.00, payable to the Minister of Finance, representing the prescribed
fee for this appeal.
Under separate cover, our clients are also appealing their related applications for a
zoning by-law amendment and site plan approval. As these appeals relate to the
same land and development proposal, it would be in the public interest for them to
be heard together. Therefore, by copy of this letter to the Board, we request they
be consolidated for hearing.
Please inform us once you have forwarded the record to the Board, and do not
hesitate to contact us if you require anything further.
Yours truly,

1.
It has been more than thirty (30) days since our clients' application for site
plan approval was submitted and Council has failed to make a decision on
the application;
2. The proposed development is consistent with provincial policy and
represents good planning in the public interest;
3. Such further and other reasons as counsel may advise and the Board may
permit.
In the package addressed to the Board, we have enclosed a completed Board Site
Plan Appellant Form with required enclosures and our firm cheque in the amount
of $125.00, payable to the Minister of Finance, representing the prescribed fee for
this appeal.
Under separate cover, our clients have appealed their related applications for
official plan amendment and zoning by-law amendment. As these appeals relate
to the same land and development proposal, it would be in the public interest for
them to be heard together with this site plan appeal. Therefore, by copy of this
letter to the Board, we request they be consolidated for hearing.
Please inform us once you have forwarded the record to the Board, and do not
hesitate to contact us if you require anything further.

1. On July 7, 2006, the applicant/owner submitted an application to the Municipality of
Clarington to rezone the subject lot at 7254 Langstaff Road to permit the keeping of
horses on the property. The applicant intends to have pasture/corral for grazing horses,
and at this time does not intend to construct a barn or any other agricultural type
building.
2. A decision was made by Clarington Council on June 25, 2007 to approve the
application. On July 25, 2007 a neighbouring property owner, Mr. Paul Fitze appealed
the decision of Council to the Ontario Municipal Board.
3. The property owners, James Tosswill and Emily Wilson brought a motion before the
Ontario Municipal Board to dismiss the appeal made by their neighbour without holding
a full hearing. The OMB heard the motion on March 18, 2008. Municipal Staff were not
subpoenaed to appear. The property owners relied in large part on the planning
rationale in the Planning Staff Report for their argument. The OMB issued their decision
on May 21,2008 and it is contained in its entirety in Attachment 2.
4. Ontario Municipal Board granted the motion and dismissed the appeal by Mr. Fitze.
The Board found that the issues raised by the appellant have no established legitimate
planning grounds for the appeal. The Board found the proposed use to be consistent
with surrounding land uses, in conformity with both the Regional and Clarington Official
Plans, and with provincial policies. Further, any planning issues regarding this matter
were addressed by the applicants and the Municipality in the approval process for this
application.
5. This report and the attached decision of the Ontario Municipal Board is provided for
information.

Paul Fitze has appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board under subsection 34(19) of the Planning

Municipality of Clarington
OMS File No. R070178
James Toswill and Emily Wilson has brought a motion before the Ontario Municipal Board under
subsection 34(25) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P .13, as amended, to dismiss the appeal
without holding a full hearing
APPEARANCES:
Parties
J. Tosswill and E. Wilson
P. Fitze
DECISION DELIVERED BY C. CONTI AND ORDER OF THE BOARD
Background
James Tosswill and Emily Wilson applied to the Municipality of Clarington for an
amendment to Municipal Zoning By-law 84-63 in order to allow agricultural use of a
portion of the property at 7254 Langstaff Road, Part Lot 5, Concession 7 in Clarington.
The Municipality approved By-law Amendment 2007-152 which zones the western
portion of the applicants' property agricultural so that horses can be pastured on this
portion of the lands.
Paul Fitze, who owns property immediately to the south, has appealed the By-
law Amendment, claiming that the use of the land for keeping livestock will impact the
proposed residential use of his land.
858
- 2 -
PL070654
Mr. Toswill and Ms Wilson brought forward a motion to dismiss on the grounds
that the appeal is vexatious and antagonistic, and does not have a legitimate and
substantial factual basis.
The Proposal
The applicants own the 2.74 ha parcel at 7254 Langstaff Road. There currently is
a dwelling located in the south-central portion of the property. Langstaff Road runs north
to south at the eastern limit of the lands, and properties fronting on this section of
Langstaff are zoned for residential use. A large land locked agricultural property, owned
by Mr. Fitze's father abuts the west boundary of many of the residential properties
fronting on Langstaff, including the subject lands.
The current zoning of the property is Rural Cluster 2 (RC-2), with the eastern
portion including a watercourse and small wetland zoned Environmental Protection
(EP). By-law Amendment 2007-152 proposes to change the zoning to Agricultural for
approximately the western half of the lands. The change will permit only use of these
lands as pasture, and does not permit buildings or structures to house livestock. The EP
zoning will not be affected by the proposed Amendment.
The applicants intend to use the western portion of the lands to pasture horses,
only during summer and part of the spring and fall. They own another property where
the horses are kept the rest of the year. They contend that they do not need to build a
shelter on the property for their intended use, and therefore are proposing no new
construction in conjunction with the rezoning.
. Basis of the Motion
The basis for the applicants' motion is essentially that the grounds for the appeal
are vexatious and lack substance necessary for the appeal to be successful. The
appellant's reasons for the appeal include, nuisance from flies, odours, noise caused by
the horses whinnying, concerns for nutrient management, and concern about the
welfare of the horses. The applicants contend that all of these matters have been either
addressed during the process of the By-law Amendment approval, or they are non-
issues.
859
- 3 -
PL070654
They note that much of the area surrounding the subject property is zoned
agricultural and used for agricultural purposes. The property to the west owned by the
appellant's father is in agricultural use and contained livestock as recently as 2001.
Livestock are currently kept on the property to the east of the subject lands on the other
side of Langstaff Road. There are two commercial riding stables within 1 km of the
property. The agricultural use of the surrounding area is widespread. Therefore the
applicants contend that the nuisance issues identified by the appellant are part of the
surrounding agricultural use. They maintain that their proposal will not be adding
significantly to any issue.
The applicants maintain that noise disturbance from whinnying is not a legitimate
issue. They contend noise created by vehicles and machinery in the surrounding area
far outweigh the noise created by the horses.
The applicants submit that there is no issue regarding nutrient management
since they are proposing no _ buildings to house the horses. They contend that the
Nutrient Management Act and the requirements for Minimum Distance Separation apply
only when buildings are proposed.
Regarding the welfare of the horses, the Board notes information from the
applicants' veterinarian, indicating that they have a history of providing proper care for
their horses. The applicants also provided an inspection report from the OSPCA which
stated that the horses on the subject property were well cared for and there were no
concerns.
Appellant's Response
The appellant relied upon the filings (Exhibit 2) of the applicants for his response,
and provided no submissions on his own behalf. While he did not serve a notice of
response to the applicants' motion, since he did not rely upon responding materials, did
not use an affidavit as evidence and did not call witnesses, his response to the motion
complies with section 36 of the Board's rules of Practice and Procedure.
The appellant maintains that pasturing horses on the applicants' property will
affect the uses of his lands. He is proposing to build a dwelling on the property to the
860
- 4-
PL070654
south of the applicants, and the proximity of the horses will cause an increase in flies,
odours and other nuisances.
Furthermore, he contends that the pasture area is too small to care for the
number of horses that will be there. He claims that the applicants have pastured as
many as seven horses in the field in the past. The area is not large enough to provide
for the nutritional needs of that number of horses.
The Municipality created the rural cluster in this section of Langstaff Road a
number of years ago, and the residential use should be protected. To introduce
agricultural uses into the area will impact his property and others in the area.
Findings
Section 34(25) of the Planning Act sets out a number of grounds whereby the
Board can dismiss an appeal without a hearing.
In part, this section states, ".. .the Municipal Board may dismiss all or part of an
appeal without holding a hearing, on its own initiative or on the motion of any party, if,
(a) it is of the opinion that,
(i) the reasons set out in the notice of appeal do not disclose any apparent land
use planning ground upon which the Board could allow all or part of the
appeal,
(ii) the appeal is not made in good faith or is frivolous or vexatious,
(Hi) the appeal is made only for the purpose of delay,
(iv) the appellant has persistently and without reasonable grounds commenced
before the Board proceedings that constitute an abuse of process...."
The Board is not convinced by the applicants' claim that the appeal is vexatious.
However, the Board is concerned about the lack of apparent planning grounds upon
which this appeal could be allowed. This in itself can be a reason to dismiss an appeal.
861
- 5 -
PL070654
A number of Board decisions (notably East Beach Community Association v. the
City of Toronto, 1996) have found that appellants must do more than simply raise
apprehensions of potential problems. They must establish legitimate plannirig"grounds
upon which an appeal could be allowed in order for it to move forward to a hearing.
In reviewing the argument of the parties and the submissions on this motion, the
Board finds that the following are the critical and decisive points.
Surrounding Land Uses
While some residential use has been established along Langstaff Road,
agricultural uses are also well established in the area. Other properties, including that
owned by the appellant's father, which abut his lands, are used for agricultural purposes
and could be used for livestock grazing. The evidence is that the appellant supports the
agricultural use of these other properties, but is opposed to the proposed use by the
applicants. The Board understands that he assists in the farming operation on his
father's property.
These agricultural uses are in close proximity to the appellant's lands and the
other lands zoned for residential use.
The Board concurs with the applicants' submissions, that the same types of
nuisance issues raised by the appellant could occur on these other properties, and it is
unlikely that the proposed use will add significantly to any existing nuisance.
Designation of the Lands
The submissions provided by the applicants indicate that the subject lands are
designated for agricultural use in both the Region of Durham and the Municipality of
Clarington Official Plans. In the Regional Plan it is designated Prime Agricultural Area.
The Planning Staff report on the rezoning (Exhibit 2, Tab E) notes that while the
Municipality attempted to reflect the residential zoning in the Clarington Official Plan
designation, the Region as the approval authority would not permit it. Consequently,
the lands that are zoned Rural Cluster (RC-2) are designated as General Agricultural
and Environmental Protection in the Clarington Plan.
862
- 6 -
PL070654
The Greenbelt Plan recognizes the wetland as a natural heritage feature on the
property. However, the evidence provided to the Board is that the natural heritage
feature will not be impacted by the proposal.
The designations clearly reflect the priorities of both Durham and Clarington to
maintain the agricultural use of this property. The Board finds that the proposed zoning
conforms more closely to the Official Plan designations than does the Rural Cluster
zoning. In view of the designations and of provincial policies supporting the protection of
agricultural lands, it is unlikely that planning evidence provided at a hearing would find a
residential designation to be appropriate.
Nutrient Management and Minimum Distance Separation
No convincing evidence was presented that the proposed agricultural use falls
under the Nutrient Management Act and that it would require the use of Minimum
Distance Separation (MDS). The applicants maintain that the Act and MDS only apply if
a structure is to be constructed to house the horses. This is also the position of Town
Planning Staff in their report on the rezoning (Exhibit 2, Tab E).
The MDS Implementation Guidelines clearly state that MDS does not apply to
pastures. Section 11 of Ontario Regulation 267/03 of the Nutrient Management Act
indicates that it is not necessary to comply with various provisions of the Act if no
building is proposed and if there is no proposal for a permanent nutrient storage facility.
No evidence has been presented that either of these are proposed in conjunction with
the agricultural use of the subject lands. Furthermore, the By-law Amendment
specifically prohibits the construction of buildings to house livestock.
The appellant has not demonstrated grounds upon which the appeal could be
successful on the basis of requirements of the Nutrient Management Act and Minimum
Distance Separation.
Conclusion
The Board's main concerns in this matter are the proposed land use, whether it
fits in with the surrounding land uses, if it conforms to the relevant Official Plans and
provincial policies, and if it could have any significant negative impact. The applicants
863
- 7 -
PL070654
appear to have the capacity and experience to care for their animals properly, although
that is not a planning issue.
In view of the above, the Board finds that the issues raised by the appellant have
not established legitimate planning grounds for the appeal. The proposed use is
consistent with surrounding land uses and conforms to Official Plan designations and
provincial policies. Any planning issues regarding this matter have been addressed by
the applicants and the Municipality in the approval process for the application.
Therefore, the motion of the applicants is allowed and the appeal is dismissed.
Order
UPON APPEAL to this Board by Paul Fitze of the approval by the Municipality of
Clarington of By-law Amendment 2007-152;
AND UPON MOTION to this Board by James Tosswill and Emily Wilson for an
Order dismissing the appeal under subsection 34(25) of the Planning Act, and after
hearing the motion;
THE BOARD ORDERS that the motion is granted and the appeal by Paul Fitze
is dismissed.

Strike & Strike L.L.P" Barristers and Solicitors
Lot 26, Concession 1, former Township of Clarke (Newcastle
Village) -lot 131 on Plan 40M-2038
2.0 BACKGROUND
2,1 On May 16, 2008, staff received a request from Dan Strike on behalf of Brenda and
Adam Stephenson for the Removal of Part Lot Control with respect to Lot 131 on Plan
40M-2038,
2,2 A Part Lot Control By-law effecting all of the semi-detached lots within Plan 40M-2038
was previously granted approval by Council on two (2) separate occasions; May 14,
2001 and then on May 24, 2004, Each by-law contained a three (3) year period within
which the by-law remained in full force and effect, the first by-law expiring on May 14,
2004, the second on May 31,2007,
2.3 Clarnew Developments Incorporated, the ownerldeveloper of the draft plan of
subdivision advised when the second Part Lot Control application was filed in 2004
that all transfers of ownership of the semi-detached dwelling units had not taken place
prior to the expiry of the first by-law, hence the necessity for the second application,
2.4 With the exception of Lot 131, the second Part Lot Control By-law passed on May 24,
2004 permitted the transfer of ownership of all outstanding semi-detached dwelling
units,
2,5 With the ownership of Lot 131 having recently been determined through the court
system, the process of finalizing the construction of the semi-detached dwelling unit
has commenced, Unfortunately due to the amount of time the issue of ownership was
before the Courts, the new owners could not complete the transfer of ownership of
each semi-detached unit before the second Part Lot Control By-law lapsed on May 31,
2007, thereby requiring the submission of the current application,
3.0 STAFF COMMENTS
3,1 Staff has no objection to the approval of a by-law exempting the subject lands from
Part Lot Control. Attached is a by-law (Attachment 2) to exempt the subject lands
from Section 50(5) of the Planning Act.
3,2 In accordance with the procedures established in the delegation of Part Lot Control
By-laws, a copy of the "Unit Type and Number Summary Table" (Attachment 3), along
with a copy of the Part Lot Control By-law will be forwarded to the Regional Planning
Department.

REPORT NO.: PSD-065-08

3,3 The Finance Department advises that the taxes have been paid in full.
3.4 Staff recommends that the by-law be in force for a one (1) year period following
Council approval, ending June 23, 2009,
4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
4,1 It is recommended that Council APPROVE this application and ADOPT the attached
Part Lot Control By-law for Lot 131 on Plan 40M-2038,

1,2 Application 2008-0014 was originally considered at the May 8, 2008 Committee of
Adjustment meeting, however the application was deemed incomplete and was
TABLED to allow for the applicant to submit the required information regarding the
proposed accessibility ramp, The revised application is to permit the construction of an
accessibility ramp within the easterly interior side yard, by reducing the minimum
required interior side yard setback from 1,2 metres to 1,07 metres to the ramp and 0.77
metres to the landing, and increasing the total lot coverage from 40% to 46% of the lot.
Staff recommended approval of this application subject to conditions, as the reduced
interior side yard setbacks will not adversely affect the maintenance or drainage on the
property, and there will remain sufficient private amenity space in the rear yard.
The Committee concurred with staff recommendations and imposed the following
condition:
· That no existing drainage patterns are altered or adversely affected as a result of
construction.
1.3 Application A2008-Q017 was filed to permit the construction of an addition to a single
detached dwelling by increasing the maximum permitted lot coverage from 40% to 43%.
The existing buildings on the property include the primary dwelling with an attached
garage, a garden shed and a covered patio, The applicant proposes to build a second
detached garage, remove the shed and enclose a pool area, After the removal of the
shed, and the construction of the second garage, the enclosed pool area will result in an
increase in the maximum permitted lot coverage,
895
REPORT NO.: PSD-068-08
PAGE 3
Staff recommended approval of the application subject to conditions, as the increase in
total lot coverage from 40% to 43% is considered minor in nature, the proposed addition
will continue to comply with all other requirements of the Zoning By-law and the
application conforms with the intent of the Zoning By-law, It was also staff's opinion that
the subject property is located in an eclectic neighbourhood, having a variety of different
sizes and styles of accessory buildings and dwellings, and the proposed addition would
maintain the existing character of the neighbourhood.
The Committee concurred with staff recommendations and imposed the following
conditions:
. That the existing garden shed be removed from the property prior to the issuance
of a building permit for the pool enclosure; and
. That no existing drainage patterns be altered or adversely affected as a result of
construction,
1.4 Application A2008-0018 was filed to permit the construction of a single detached
dwelling by reducing the minimum required westerly interior side yard setback from 1.2
metres to 1,1 metres.
Due to an error made during the construction process, the foundation of the dwelling
was poured 0.1 metres closer to property line than what is permitted by the Zoning By-
law, A minor variance application was submitted to correct this construction error.
Staff recommended approval of this application subject to conditions, The Committee
concurred with Staff recommendations and imposed the following condition:
. That the final lot grading conforms to the intent and integrity of the approved lot
grading plan,
2.0 COMMENTS

1.0 BACKGROUND
1,1 The Foster Creek North subdivision is located east of Rudell Road, north of
Highway 2 in the Village of Newcastle, The 665 unit development was draft
approved in April 2007. Engineering Department staff have recently completed
the review of the second submission of engineering drawings,
1,2 The owner, Lindvest Properties Limited, has requested in their May 28,2008
letter (see Attachment 1) that the Municipality permit them to pre-grade the site
within the Phase 1 and part of Phase 2 lands, The reason for the request is that
fill is required to be placed in the area of Phase 1, and there is excess material
which is required to be excavated in Phase 2, south of future Grady Drive,
Approximately 78,000 cubic metres is proposed to be moved within the site, No
importation or exportation of material will occur during this pre-grading phase,
As the developer states in their letter, not only is it cost effective to cut and fill
within the site, but it will also result in significantly reduced truck traffic compared
to that which would occur if the material were imported for Phase 1 and exported
for Phase 2,
1,3 The developer has submitted a cost estimate for the construction and
maintenance of erosion and sedimentation controls and stabilization of the
disturbed areas, They are prepared to post a $340,000 Letter of Credit for these
works which can be drawn upon in the event that they do not comply with the
Agreement of Understanding,
1.4 A small area of Phase 1 is regulated by the GRCA under the Conservation
Authorities Act. Lindvest has obtained a permit from GRCA to grade in the
regulated area,
1.5 A similar Agreement of Understanding was recently entered into by the
Municipality for works very similar to this request in the Courtice Area,
903

2.0 REVIEW AND COMMENTS
2,1 Staff have met with the developer and have reviewed their request as submitted.
Staff have no objection to the pre-grading and concur with the cost estimate
which will form the basis of the Letter of Credit. Staff will recommend that, if the
Agreement of Understanding is approved, the developer communicate with the
neighbouring property owners with respect to the proposed works and provide
those property owners with contact numbers in the event that they have any
questions or complaints, Staff have also requested a Site Alteration Plan which
clearly depicts location and method of erosion and sediment control, dust and
mud control and restorationlstabilization of disturbed areas,
3.0 CONCLUSION
3,1 Staff recommend that the Municipality of Clarington enter into an Agreement of
Understanding with Lindvest Properties Limited for pre-grading works as outlined
in their May 28, 2008 letter once a Letter of Credit and a Site Alteration Plan
have been received to the satisfaction of the Director of Finance and the Director
of Engineering Services respectively,

Re: Foster Creek North - Phase 1
Lindvest Properties (Clarington) Limited
Draft Plan of Subdivision 18T -89059
Request to Proceed with Topsoil Stripping and Grading
Dear Leslie:
Thank you for meeting with us and Bob Annaert on May 12, 2008 to discuss the
development approval status; the status of the preparation of the Subdivision
Agreement; and the requirements of the Municipality to proceed with site
preparation works. The discussions and approximate time lines to complete the
planning and engineering approval process to the ultimate goal of obtaining a
Subdivision Agreement and registration of the plan of subdivision for Phase 1
were very helpful.
While significant progress has been made to satisfy the various draft plan
conditions leading to the completion of a Subdivision Agreement, it was evident
given staff time constraints and normal approval processing time frames, it would
not be possible to have a Subdivision Agreement provided for execution until late
July or August 2008. While this time frame appears to be acceptable for the start
of underground servicing and road construction, a significant time is required in
advance of those works including site preparation, tree clearing, installation of
erosion controlp measures', topsoil' stripping and stockpiling'; and the rough grading'
of the site prior to the start of underground servicing.
As such, we respectfully request that the Municipality allow us to proceed with
the site works in advance of the subdivision agreement. It is our hope to
commence with the site works in late June, which in turn would allow us to
service the site once the subdivision agreement is available. This schedule would
allow time to complete the installation of the underground services and road work
by December 2008 for building permit availability.
We believe that the engineering review and approval process is far enough along
to allow the site preparation work to begin. In this regard, we advise as follows:

TEL: 416.635.7520 . FAX: 416.635.9921

· A Tree Preservation Plan has been prepared, submitted, and reviewed by
the Municipality to ensure that the site clearing activity will not impact any
trees identified to be preserved.
· In the engineering review process, we have now received 2nd submission
comments from the Municipality which require only limited revisions for
approval. There are no major issues with respect to road grades or lot
grades which would impact on the rough grading of the site.
· A permit has been issued by the Ganaraska Region Conservation
Authority (copy attached) for the installation of erosion control measures,
topsoil stripping and stockpiling, and rough grading of the site based on
Erosion and Sediment Control Plans submitted to the Municipality and
GRCA.
As discussed in our meeting, the limits of the site preparation and rough grading
work, must include all of Phase 1 and Phase 2, south of proposed Grady Drive
(see attached plan). While the Subdivision Agreement will be limited to the
registration of Phase 1, earthworks for Phase 1 cannot balance within the limits
of it's registration. The existing topography and proposed road and lot grading is
such that Phase 1 has a shortage of approximately 78,000 cubic metres of fill
required, while Phase 2 has an excess cut of a similar volume.
Therefore, we have proposed the grading of both Phase 1 and Phase 2 at this
time in order to balance the earthworks operation by removing the excess cut on
Phase 2 and placing it as the fill required for Phase 1. This operation is not only
the most cost effective, it will also allow the cut and fill grading to remain on site,
rather than importing fill into Phase 1 and exporting cut from Phase 2 by a
trucking operation that would be a nuisance and source of potential complaints
by neighbouring residents.
Please note that all site preparation work would be limited to within the
development site. The off-site Phase 1 grading and servicing of Rudell Road and
the Rudell Road Stormwater Management Pond would not be initiated without an
executed Subdivision Agreement.
Prior to the start of the site preparation work, we are prepared to issue a security
in the form of a Letter of Credit to the Municipality. This security would secure the
site restoration works of the area to be disturbed. These restoration works
would cost ih the order of '$340,000. A copy of the estimate for this security is
attached for your use and information.
Should there be complaints respecting dust, mud on existing roads, etc., these
complaints would be dealt with expeditiously as required with water trucks, dust
reduction with calcium, and street sweeping and cleaning. It is also our intention
to hydro-seed the Phase 2 lands so as to minimize dust that may be generated
following the initial site works.
Given the above, your assistance in allowing us to proceed with site works in
order to achieve our target construction dates would be greatly appreciated. If we
are unable to proceed with the site preparation until a Subdivision Agreement is
906
'.
Page 3
available for execution in late July or August 2008, the services and road
construction will not be completed this year and we would be forced to service
the site next year.
Should you have any questions or require anything further to process this
submission, please don't hesitate to contact us or Bob Annaert at your
convenience.
Yours truly,
Lindvest Properties (Clarington) Limited

1.0 BACKGROUND
1,1 An application for draft plan of subdivision has been submitted to the Municipality
to subdivide a 4,5 ha property between (unopen) George Manners Street and
Park Lane and between Boulton Street and Queen Victoria Street in Bond Head
(Part Lot 27, Broken Front Concession, former Clarke Township). The developer
proposes to create eight residential lots on this property.
1,2 The Municipality's solicitor has confirmed that there is an unopen road allowance
(Darcy Street) which crosses the property approximately one quarter of the way
south of the north property line (see Key Map), The Darcy Street road allowance
does continue west to Mill Street but does not continue east of Park Lane,
1,3 The developer owns both sides of the road allowance and has made application
to the Municipality to close and convey the road allowance in order to consolidate
the properties and create the eight lot subdivision.
2.0 MUNICIPALITY POLICY AND PROCEDURE FOR ROAD CLOSURE
2,1 The Director of Engineering Services has made a preliminary determination that
this portion of Darcy Street is not likely required for public highway purposes, In
accordance with the Municipal Policy and Procedure for Road Closures, an
application has been made, and staff request the consideration by Committee to
recommend the closure and conveyance to Council.
2,2 If approved in principle, staff will circulate the application to all utilities, authorities
and municipal departments, The applicant will be responsible to provide a
reference plan and pay appraisal, advertising, legal and land costs,
2,3 The Municipality must, under By-law 95-22, declare the land surplus and also
determine whether the surplus property shall be sold by the acceptance of an
offer from a member of the public, sold at fair appraised market value to adjacent
owners or exchanged for other property of equal or greater value,
912
Report #EGD-028-08
Page 4
2.4 Under the Municipal Act, the Municipality must give notice of its intention to pass
a by-law closing the road allowance, hold a public hearing and, if Council
approves, pass a by-law closing the road allowance, pass a by-law declaring the
land surplus and pass a by-law conveying the land,
3.0 CONCLUSION
3,1 The Director of Engineering Services has determined the unopen portion of
Darcy Street between George Manners Street and Park Lane in Bond Head is
not required for the Municipal road network, It is, therefore, recommended that
Council direct staff to process the application to close, declare surplus and
convey this part of the road allowance,

FUEL COSTS:
As Council is aware, the increased cost of fuel will certainly impact our
Operations budget. Since 2004 our fuel costs have increased by 42.75%.
Clarington is paying at least twenty cents per litre more for gas and thirty cents
per litre more for diesel based on the price of fuel paid since January 1st. If these
prices continue, we are projecting an increase of approximately $120,000 based
on our annual average fleet consumption.

SALT MANAGEMENT:
Environment Canada published on April 3, 2004 the Code of Practice for the
Environmental Management of Road Salts, Although the implementation of the
code is voluntary, it is in the best interest of the Municipalities and other road
authorities to comply witt! the code requirement to better manage their use of
road salts. Environment Canada after five years will review and indicate if more
rigorous actions are required.
Clarington has participatl3d in this program and has provided annual reports
since 2005.
CONCLUSION:
Staff will continue to provide storm updates to you throughout the fall and winter
and will report to Council in early 2009 on the costs of the 2008 winter
maintenance program.

Department Strategic Plan, staff is actively working to improve new member and
retention rates, At this time, staff is proposing a change to the Corporate
Membership Program,
2,5 The Corporate Membership Program has been in place since the early 1990's
and was developed to increase membership sales to the business community,
The Corporate Membership Program offers a discounted fee to employees of the
same company where 10 or more employees purchase a membership at the
same time, Recently, there has been interest expressed by other organizations
or groups of people who are interested in a similar program. At this time staff is
recommending that the Corporate Membership Program be extended to include
any group of 10 or more individuals purchasing a membership at the same time
and that the Program be renamed, Group Membership Program to reflect this
change in scope.

1.0 BACKGROUND
In May of 2006 the Communications & Tourism Division initiated the process of
registering the Total Hockey logo and logo design as official marks with the
Canadian Intellectual Property Office. To complete this task, the Thomson Law
Firm (Trade Mark A~gent), located through the Canadian Intellectual Property
Office, was retained.
The process was completed by July 2006 with the certificate of official
registration being dHlivered to the Municipal Clerks Office for inclusion in the
Municipality's official records.
2.0 CURRENT ST A TU~~
On March 28, 2008 the Manager of Communications received an email
correspondence from the Trade Mark Agent. They had received written
correspondence from another Trade Mark Agent, representing the Minnesota
based company Total Hockey Worldwide (www.totalhockevusa.com) requesting
the release of the Canadian rights to the Total Hockey trademark/official mark.
This company holds the American rights to the Total Hockey official mark and is
in the process of expanding their operations into Canada. Upon trying to register
this trade mark in Canada, they were informed that the trade mark is owned by
the Municipality of Clarington.
The Municipality is being asked to release their rights to the Total Hockey trade
mark since the facility is no longer in operation.
3.0 Recommendation
The cost of registering the Total Hockey trade mark was approximately
$2,500.00 Canadian including all legal and registration fees and incidental
1414
REPORT NO.: COD-36-08
PAGE 3
expenses incurred during the registration process. The funds used for this
process were from the Communications & Tourism operating budget.
It is recommended that, since there is no other obvious use for this trade mark,
there is no legal reason for the Municipality to retain the rights to the Total
Hockey trade mark. However, it is further recommended that the trade mark only
be released on the proviso that the Municipality is able to recover the original
costs of the registration process - the sum of $2,500.00. The Trade Mark Agent
has been contacted to inquire if Total Hockey Worldwide would be interested
purchasing the trade mark. To date, there has been no response however, it is
noted that this type of process takes significant time.
Should Total Hockey Worldwide not be interested in paying for the rights to the
Total Hockey trade mark, it is recommended that the trade mark rights be
retained until such time as there is a willing buyer.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENT
The existing lease for the Bowmanville Nursery School, a project of the Bowmanville
Lions Club for space located at the Clarington Beech Centre expires June 30, 2008.
On April 29, 2008 the Lions Club notified the Municipality that the Bowmanville Nursery
School would cease to operate as of June 30, 2008 and the Lions Club would not be
renewing the lease. Shortly thereafter, the Municipality was notified that the matter was
being reconsidered. Subsequently, the Lions Club advised that they wished to renew
for a further one year term on a month to month lease basis and they were agreeable to
a nominal increase in the lease rate based on Consumer Price Index for the month of
April at 1.7 %. This increase will adjust the rate from $948.46 to $964.58. The increase
proposed is reasonable and in line with market conditions.
In order to proceed a new algreement will be required to cover the lease rates, the terms
and the duration. Although the lease rate has been agreed to, there are a number of
issues to resolve in the lease. Under the circumstances, it is also recommended that
the agreement be reviewed by the Municipality's solicitor. Once a final lease has been
prepared and approved by all parties including the Municipality's Solicitor, the
agreement will be provided for execution by the Mayor and Clerk.

SUBJECT: Foster Creek Erosion Protection
Robert Street Culverts, Newcastle
cL2008-21, CED.FosterCreek.2
5800-8310-07115
The Engineering Services Department has reviewed the recommendation provided by
TSH and offers the following comments:
In 2007 the Municipality completed similar erosion protection works at the Colwill Bridge
on Old Scugog Road. Our budget value for Foster Creek erosion works is based on
indexed construction costs from the Colwill Bridge project. The total budget value for the
Foster Creek erosion protection is $230,000.00 (2007 & 2008 Capital Budget).
The total tendered project cost, including design and tender fees as well as contract
administration fees, for the Foster Creek erosion works is $7,000.00 over budget for a
total of $237,000.00. Due to the erosion implications at the Robert Street culvert, it is
imperative that the project proceed. In order to continue with these works, our
department would like to utilize the unspent funds from the 2007 Colwill Bridge Erosion
project (Account # 110 32 342 83315 7401). The financing splits for each project are the
same. Our cost of works for the 2007 Colwill Bridge project was substantially lower than
the estimated cost of works in our 2007 capital budget.
Should the funding source detailed above be available, we concur with the
recommendation to award the contract to S&F Excavating Ltd. in the amount of
$184,500.00 exclusive of G.ST
Due to past experiences on a similar project, a contingency amount of approximately 4%
is carried forward. Therefore, including design and tender fees as well as contract
administration fees, the engineering department advises the following Municipal
breakdown for the above referenced project;

TSH has reviewed all bids accepted by the Clarington Purchasing Depaltment and have confirmed the bid
values noted above. S & F Excavating Limited has completed the Wilmot Creek Pedestrian Bridge
Erosion Protection project tendered by the Municipality of Clarington and administered by TSH, under
Quotation No. Q2007-11. The contract was completed in a satisfactory manner. As requested by the

SCHEDULE "B"
Mr. A. S. Cannella, C.E.T., Director

The following is a summary of the total project costs:
Total Construction Costs Based on Low Bid
Permit to Take Water Application Fee
Detailed Design, Approvals and Tender Preparation
(to May 10, 2008)
Contract Administration (Estimated)
Contingencies (Estimated)
Total
$184,500.00
$750.00
$26,033.02
$16,000.00
$9.716.98
$237,000.00
Based on the total budget amount of $230,000 (2007 and 2008) allocated for these works from the 2008
Budget (Account No. 100-32-340-83317-7401), the total project costs based on the low bid are over
budget by $7,000. Erosion control projects are unique. In this regard, using benchmark cost data in the
preparation of cost estimates often results in estimates which do not reflect the level of eff011 required to
complete the work. In addition, rising fuel costs have significantly affected the cost of material delivelY
which comprises a large part of this project.
The project is necessary to stop creek erosion that will in the short term, compromise the existing property
at the southeast corner ofthe culverts. If the watercourse is left in its current state, erosion will continue
to impact this property as well as pose a safety hazard due to the steep banks and drop off at this same
location.
If additional financing can be secured, we recommend that the tender in the amount of $184,500.00
(exclusive ofG.S.T.) be awarded to S & F Excavating Limited of King City, Ontario.
Deposit cheques or bid bonds shall be retained for the low and second low bids until the contract has been
executed.
Should you require any further information, please contact the undersigned.
Best regards,

As mentioned I have been out visiting with our some of our businesses including Halminen Building, Valiant Properties, Syvan
Developments, Veltri, Veyance Technologies, Greeley Containment, Fabricating Techniques, Global Rotary Engines, OPG, and
various retail and service companies.
As a step to assist the retail and service sectors, we are teaming up with the Municipal communications department to gauge
interest in a "Shop Local" campaign to encourage growth for this sector.
Agriculture is a key driver in the Clarington economy, we are looking at opportunities and possible solutions to ensure Agriculture is
sustained and recognized for their impact on our economy.
In addition to these activities it is important for us to ensure that partnerships, resources and structures are in place to support
growth. We are proud to be actively participating with the Regional efforts, the official plan review, sign by-law review, Metrolinx
and the EA process for Ontario Power Generation. We are offering satellite coaching opportunities through the Business advisory
centre in Durham and round table discussions.
We are all aware of the two largest topics of discussion for Economic Development in Durham Region today. The GM Shut down and
the hopes of a positive announcement for New Nuclear Build in Clarington.
Our president Mike Patrick is sitting on the Durham Community Adjustment Committee, where a lot of work is being done on a
labour market study. This will help us to understand the skills we currently have in our community, where we need to create jobs
and or what we need to focus retraining programs on.
New Build will be a great announcement, we have been researching and beginning to set up meetings with feeder business for new
build, both for the construction phase but also for the 60 years to follow.
