undertaken by Hemson Consulting for the Municipality of Clarington and included
these applications as well as various other major development proposals in the
municipality. The conclusions and recommendations of the Financial Impact Analysis
were presented at the General Purpose and Administration Committee Meeting of
February 25,2008, through Report FND- 007-08.
3.3
On May 28, 2008, both Brookfield Homes and Smooth Run submitted revised draft

5.0 PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT
5.1 Provincial Policy Statement.
5.1.1 The applications were reviewed in the context of the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement.
Section 1.1.3, Settlement Areas, states that new development shall occur adjacent to
built up areas and shall have compact form, a mix of uses and densities that allow for
the efficient use of land, infrastructure and public services.
Section 1.4, Housing Policies, states that Planning authorities are required to provide
for a range of housing types and densities with a ten year supply of lands which are
designated and a three year supply of zoned and serviced lands within draft approved
and registered plans. New housing is to be directed to locations where infrastructure
and public services are or will be available. A full range of housing types and densities
shall be provided to meet projected requirements of current and future residents of the
regional market area.
Section 1.5, Public Spaces, Parks and Open Space policies, states that healthy active
communities should be promoted by planning public streets and spaces that are safe
and facilitate pedestrian and non-motorized movement. A full range of publicly
accessible built and natural setting for recreation including facilities, parks, open space
and trails should also be considered.
Section 1.6, Infrastructure and Public Service Facilities, states that infrastructure and
public services facilities shall be provided in a coordinated efficient and cost effective
manner. Planning for these shall be integrated with planning for growth so that they
REPORT NO.: PSD-095-08
PAGE 6
are available to meet current and projected needs. The use of existing infrastructure
and public service facilities should be optimized where feasible before considering
developing new infrastructure and public service facilities.
Section 1.8, Energy and Air Quality, states that planning authorities shall support
energy efficiency and improved air quality through various means in the planning and
development process.
Section 2.1, Natural Heritage, states natural features and areas shall be protected for
the long term. The diversity and connectivity of natural features in an area, and the
long-term ecological function and biodiversity of natural heritage systems, should be
maintained, restored or, where possible, improved, recognizing linkages between and
among natural heritage features and areas, surface water features and ground water
featu res.
5.2 Provincial Growth Plan
The Provincial Growth Plan encourages municipalities to manage growth by directing
population growth to settlement areas. Growth is to be accommodated by building
compact, transit-supportive communities in designated greenfield areas and by
reducing dependence on the automobile through the development of mixed use,
pedestrian-friendly environments. Growth shall also be directed to areas that offer
municipal water and wastewater systems. Municipalities should establish an urban
open space system within built up areas.
The Growth Plan also contains policies for the protection of the natural heritage and
shall be read in conjunction with the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement. The
Growth Plan encourages Planning Authorities to identify natural heritage features and
areas complement, link, or enhance natural systems.
Staff are continuing to review the applications with respect to the Provincial Policy
Statement and the Provincial Growth Plan.
6.0 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES
6.1 Durham Reaional Official Plan
6.1.1 The subject lands are designated as "Living Area" within the Durham Regional Official
Plan. Lands within this designation shall be used predominantly for housing purposes
incorporating the widest possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure to provide
living accommodations that address various socio-economic factors. A mix of uses
such as certain home occupations, convenience stores, public and recreational uses
which are compatible with their surroundings are permitted. Limited office
development and retailing of goods and services in appropriate locations and as a
component of mixed use development may also be permitted in Living Areas provided
there are appropriate provisions and designations in the area municipal Official Plan.
REPORT NO.: PSD-095-08
PAGE 7
6.1.2 In consideration of development applications in designated Living Areas, regard shall
be had for the intent of this plan to achieve the following:
. A compact urban form;
. The use of good urban design principles;
. The provision of convenient pedestrian access to public transit,
educational facilities and parks;
. A grid pattern of roads;
. The provision and distribution of parks, trails and pathways and
educational facilities;
. The types and capacities of the existing municipal services, infrastructure
and the feasibility of expansion; and
. The balance between energy efficiency and cost.
6.2 Clarinaton Official Plan
6.2.1 The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject lands as "Urban Residential", and
'Future Urban Residential". The northerly portion is located with "Special Policy Area
G". The use of lands within the "Urban Residential" designation shall be
predominately for single and semi-detached housing. Two (2) public elementary
school symbols, one (1) separate elementary and one (1) separate secondary school
symbol, two (2) medium density symbols and two (2) neighbourhood park symbols
are also designated on both sites.
6.2.2 The lands north of the northerly collector road (Streets E and 0) are designated within
the "Special Policy Area G" as shown on Attachment 5. This area is potentially
affected by the hog operation immediately north of the urban boundary. An area of
influence as defined in the Minimum Distance Separation Formula, also shown on
Attachment 5 is designated "Future Urban Residential Area". Until such time as the
hog operation or similar agricultural operation ceases, the area of influence shall
remain designated "Future Urban Residential". There are also lands designated
"Urban Residential in Special Policy Area G". As a condition of development, a
warning clause must be included in all purchase and sale agreements indicating
potential impacts from agricultural operations including noise and odour. These lands
may also be affected by the hog operation. One public elementary school site, one
separate secondary school site and a park are also identified within "Special Policy
Area G".
6.2.3 The lands within the North Village Neighbourhood have a population allocation of
3900 and a housing target of 1350, being 1050 low density units, 250 medium density
units and 50 units for intensification. The proposed amendment is requesting an
increase in the housing target to 1,750 units and a population of 5,700.
6.2.4 The Clarington Official Plan requires that prior to the consideration and approval of a
plan of subdivision, the Municipality shall require the preparation of a Neighbourhood
REPORT NO.: PSD-095-08
PAGE 8
Design Plan. The plan shall be prepared in consultation with the Municipality and other
agencies. A Neighbourhood Design Plan is a plan for the future development of an
entire neighbourhood and does not require the approval of Council.
6.2.5 The Clarington Official Plan may require that a Financial Impact Analysis be
undertaken for major development proposals. Where such an analysis demonstrates
that the development will have an adverse effect on the Municipality's financial
situation, then the development will be considered premature and contrary to the
intent of the Official Plan.
6.2.6 It is an objective of the Clarington Official Plan to protect natural heritage features and
enhance ecological process, biodiversity and connections. The Clarington Official
Plan provides that natural features are a key design consideration: Natural features
will be a key design consideration to ensure the protection of water courses,
Valleylands, significant woodlots and wetlands and their ecological functions.
Residential neighbourhoods will be "designed with nature" to minimize grade changes,
preserve mature trees and enhance open space linkages.
7.0 ZONING BY-LAW
7.1 Both properties are zoned "Agricultural Exception (A-1)" zone in Comprehensive
Zoning By-law 84-63, as amended. Zoning by-law amendments are required in order
to implement both proposed plans of subdivision.
8.0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS
8.1 Public Notice for the revised application was given by mail to each landowner within
120 metres of the subject sites. Public Notice signs for each development were posted
on North Street, Concession Road 3 and Arthur Street.
8.2 As of the date of writing this report, Staff received an email from a resident of Manvers
Road, inquiring about the impact on businesses as a result of the re-alignment of
Regional Road 17, form and location of live/work units, widenings of Regional Road
17 south of the CPR railway, accommodations for pedestrian traffic to the village,
timing of improvements to Arthur Street, and interim measures to accommodate traffic
prior to those improvements and routing of construction traffic.
8.3 The owner of McDonalds Restaurant was concerned with the realignment of Regional
Road 17 and how it would affect access to the restaurant. He also inquired about the
timing of services in the area.
8.4 One resident of Arthur Street inquired about the timing of approvals and subsequent
timing of development for the subdivisions. He also inquired about the design of the
stormwater management ponds.

8.5 Three other inquiries were received related to timing of the development of the
Neighbourhood.
8.6 On September 11, 2008 a Public Information Centre was held in Newcastle Village for
the proposed Neighbourhood Design Plan. The evening was well attended with over
40 individuals signing in. The majority of the issues related to traffic on Regional Road
17, access to the church and McDonalds restaurant as a result of the re-alignment of
Regional Road 17, and the timing of development.
9.0 AGENCY COMMENTS
9.1 This third submissions of applications for the Official Plan Amendment, draft Plans of
Subdivision and rezonings were circulated to various agencies for comment. The
Neighbourhood Design Plan was circulated separately.
Comments have not been received from the following agencies:
. Durham Region Planning Department
. Durham Region Works Department
. Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority
. Separate School Board
. Public School Board
. Ministry of Transportation
. Enbridge Gas
9.2 The Clarington Emergency & Fire Services offered no objection.
9.3 The Clarington Engineering Services are continuing to review the development
applications and the supporting documentation.
9.4 Rogers Cable Communications Inc. have also offered no objection.
9.5 The Canadian Pacific Railway (St. Lawrence and Hudson Railway) provided
comments on the first submission applications. CPR has standard comments related
to residential development adjacent to their property, as such, comments on
subsequent submissions is not anticipated to change. CPR advises that the proposed
developments abut the principle main line. The Railway is not in favour of residential
developments adjacent to their right-of-way, as the land use is not compatible with
railway operations. However, a standard list of conditions of approval were provided
which includes, appropriate noise attenuation and adding warning clauses in the
purchase and sale agreements regarding noise and vibrations.
9.6 The Ministry of Transportation provided comments on the first submission of
applications, however on September 8th, 2008 they have advised Staff that new
comments on the latest submission will be forthcoming.

10.0 STAFF COMMENTS
10.1 Smooth Run Developments and Brookfield Homes each own large parcels equal to
approximately 96% of land in the North Village Neighbourhood. They have submitted
one application for the Neighbourhood Design Plan and one application to amend the
Clarington Official Plan. Separate applications for draft plan of subdivision and
rezonings have been submitted for their respective parcels.
10.2 Neiahbourhood Desian Plan
10.2.1 The Neighbourhood Design Plan is for the entire neighbourhood, not only those lands
subject to the development applications. It includes road alignments, sidewalks, trails
and pedestrian nodes, lotting patterns, school, parks, open space system and
stormwater management facilities.
10.2.2 The North Newcastle Neighbourhood concept has evolved from the first design
concept with the assistance of a peer review process by The Planning Partnership,
agency comments and input from the community at two Public Information Centres
held October, 19th 2007 and September 11, 2008 and through discussions with Staff.
Some areas of concern require additional dialogue with the applicants. These issues
include re-alignment of Regional Road 17, day-lighting and enhancements of a
tributary of the Foster Creek, density and the housing mix for the neighbourhood,
phasing of development and, financing of some infrastructure required to support the
development.
10.3 Revised Official Plan Amendment
The proposed Official Plan Amendment has been revised to reflect the Draft Plans of
Subdivision. The population and housing targets and transportation network shown
on Map B4 to the Clarington Official Plan, have been changed. The first Official Plan
Amendment requested an increase in low density units from 1050 to 1350 and
medium density units from 250 to 300 units, and a total increase of 350 units. The
revised amendment, requests an increase in low density units from 1050 to 1200, and
an increase in medium density units from 250 to 450 units, resulting in 350 additional
units.
The other significant revision to the Official Plan Amendment is the re-alignment of
Regional Road 17. The re-alignment of the road is still under review by the Ministry of
Transportation, the Region of Durham and municipal staff. The re-alignment was
raised as a concern by area residents and businesses at the September 11, 2008
Public Information Centre.
10.4 Housina Mix and Densitv
The Table 1 following provides a breakdown of the housing mix between the three
various submissions.

The housing units reflect the combined totals for both Draft Plans of Subdivisions.
The second submission was submitted for a small portion of the neighbourhood,
referred to as Phase I and as such, is difficult to compare with the first and third
submissions.

o
The number of low density dwelling units have dropped by 54% from the first
submission to the third submission, while the medium density units have increased by
62%. With the exception of the Port of Newcastle, the Village of Newcastle is
comprised primarily of single detached and semi/link units.
Staff are continuing to review the housing mix and density with the applicants.
Newcastle Village has developed at a lower density than Bowmanville and Courtice.
The overall net density will also be further reviewed with the applicants.
10.5 "Special Policv Area G" and "Future Urban Residential Area"
"Special Policy Area 'G"', and "Future Urban Residential" designations are identified in
approximately the north one-third of the North Newcastle Neighbourhood. These
designations provide policies to protect the existing hog operation and its affects from
encroaching urban land uses. Both draft plans of subdivision show the area of
influence from the hog operation in the appropriate location. However, draft approval
for these portions of the plans cannot be granted to these lands until such time as the
hog operation is gone, and an official plan amendment is approved to change the
designation from "Future Urban Residential" to "Urban Residential". All other lands
within "Special Policy Area 'G'" may proceed subject to a warning clause on title with
respect to odours from farm operations. The applicants have been advised that draft
REPORT NO.: PSD-095-08
PAGE 12
approval will not be granted for those lands within the area of influence, and that as a
condition of Draft Approval warning clauses will be required on the lands within
"Special Policy Area G".
1 0.6 Financial Impact Analvsis
The servicing and road infrastructure required to support development in this
neighbourhood is identified in the Municipality's Development Charges background
study for sometime between 2015 and 2031. A Financial Impact Study was prepared
in accordance with the policies of the Official Plan to ascertain impacts of advancing
this development and others, prior to 2015, on Municipality finances. The results of
the Financial Impact Study concluded that under the Municipality's current policies and
practices, advancing development in the five areas studied will have an overall
negative fiscal impact on the Municipality. As such, Staff Report FND-007-08
recommended that development could proceed by phases and that each phase of
registration of a draft approved plan of subdivision would require a separate
subdivision agreement so as to ensure that growth could be linked to the capital
budget process. Staff are continuing to review this issue.
11.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
11.1 The purpose of this report is to satisfy the requirements of the Public Meeting under
the Planning Act, and taking into consideration the outstanding comments, staff
respectfUlly request that this report be referred back to staff for further processing and
the preparation of a subsequent report.

AMENDMENT NO.
TO THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON OFFICIAL PLAN
The purpose of the Amendment is to accommodate the design of a
Neighbourhood Plan for the North Village Neighbourhood (N5) of
Newcastle Village.
Specifically the Amendment will:
1) Increase the number of low and medium density residential units
targeted for the North Village Neighbourhood to more closely reflect
desirable urban residential densities;
2) Revise the population targets anticipated due to item 1) above;
3) Re-align Regional Road 17 (Type 'B' Arterial Road) by shifting its
intersection with Concession Road 3, 300 metres to the east and
adjusting the collector road designations with the North Village
Neighbourhood;
4) Revise the collector road pattern to reflect a finer grained grid of
collector roads in the North village Neighbourhood;
5) Apply specific reduced road right-of-way widths within the
neighbourhood recognizing the grid of Collector roads (as noted
above) and local roads in the North Village Neighbourhood;
6) Relocate the two neighbourhood parks within the North village
Neighbourhood based upon the revised collector road pattern; and
7) Delete a public elementary school and relocate the two remaining
school symbols so that each is adjacent to a neighbourhood park.
