PRESENTATIONS CONT'D.
-
. Purpose of the Report
-
- to determine the level of demand for prestige
industrial uses in Clarington;
- to determine whether the land has the
necessary attributes to attract higher order
industrial; and
- to determine the implications of the site plan
application by 1151223 Ontario Limited.
-
-
.
Our Approach
-
a review of Durham's GTMA investment
attraction programs;
- visual inspection of Clarington industrial areas;
Discussions with Board of Trade and Planning
Department;
- A review of the Official Plan and Zoning
By-law; and
- Assess "Courtice Lands" for business park
potential.
-
-
-
. Key Findings & Recommendations
-
Durham's investment attraction is impeded by
a lack of serviced industrial land;
Opportunity to develop employment/industrial
uses along Highway 401 is a significant
opportunity;
The "Courtice Lands" represent an opportunity
to create an eastern gateway to the
Region/GT A;
- The Lands exhibit many of the requirements
for a successful business park;
- The early stages of development of these
lands will set the tone for attracting further
development;
- The proposed salvage auto auction would be
better suited to dry industrial or general
industrial use designation; and
- The expansion of the existing use may
seriously impede Clarington's ability to attract
and market higher order industrial uses to the
area.

Application A2003/009 was to permit the construction of an 1120 square foot
detached garage and to allow an existing shed to remain while the new garage
was being constructed. The combined lot coverage of the two buildings was
77% of the square footage of the dwelling. The minor variance application was
approved for 62%, subject to the condition that the existing shed be removed
within 6 months.
3.
Application A2003/010 was to reduce the lot frontage of a corner lot to 14.0
metres from the required 15.3 to permit the construction of a single detached
dwelling unit. This property is located in the southern portion of the Courtice
Urban Area within the Westvale Draft Plan of Subdivision 18T-95023. The
Owner is currently in the process of obtaining approval to permit registration of
the first phase. It was through the reviewing of the Engineering drawings for this
phase that the Owner was requested by the Municipality's Engineering Services
Department to widen the f1ankage road abutting the subject property. As a result,
the lot frontage was reduced to 14.0 metres. The Municipality requested as a
condition of registration that a variance be obtained.

Application A2003/011 was for a minor variance to permit the construction of a
single detached dwelling with a total lot coverage of 45% instead of the permitted
maximum of 40%. As the applicant was not in attendance and thus was not
available to answer Committee's questions, the application was tabled for a
period of three months to allow the applicant to appear before Committee.

-
Staff has reviewed the Committee's decisions and is satisfied that the
applications that received approval are in conformity with the Official Plan
policies, consistent with the intent of the Zoning By-law and are minor in nature
and desirable. Council's concurrence with the Committee of Adjustment
decisions is required in order to afford Staffs official status before the Ontario
Municipal Board in the event of an appeal of any decision of the Committee of
Adjustment.

1.0 BACKGROUND
-
1.1 The purpose of this report is twofold:
· To provide the General Purpose and Administration Committee with an
update on activities that have taken place in 2002 on applications for Draft
Plans of Subdivisions and/or Condominiums within the Municipality; and
...
-
· To advise the Region of Durham Planning Department of the status of all
subdivision and/or condominium applications as of December 31, 2002.
-
1.2 Delegation of Subdivision approval was accepted by the Municipality October 1, 2001.
Under the terms and provisions of the Memorandum of Understanding, the Municipality
agreed to provide the Region of Durham with an annual statistical report on the number
and status of draft plans of subdivision and condominium and the number and types of
units approved and registered in the previous calendar year. With delegation coming
into effect October 1, 2001, it was mutually agreed by Regional and Municipal Staff that
the first report would address the 2002 calendar year.
-
-
....
-
2.0 SUBDIVISION ACTIVITY
-
2.1 Attachments 1, 2, 3 and 4 to this report outline all active subdivision and/or
condominium applications for which the Municipality of Clarington is the approval
authority.
...
-
Each summary table contains two main elements; a list of active draft plan of
subdivision applications and, where applicable, the associated registered plan(s).
Contained within each list is information such as the subdivisions file number, the
applicant's name, location, current status, various approval dates and number of units
by type. There are separate summary tables for Bowmanville, Courtice, Newcastle
Village and Darlington and Clarke Townships, entitled "Rural Areas and Hamlets".
-
-
...
2.2 In total there are seventy-five (75) applications for draft plan approval, all in various
stages of development. The summary tables identify whether an application had
evolved to receive draft approval towards final approval. The geographic location of the
active applications is as follows:

. Courtice ................................................... 21
. Newcastle Village...................................... 8
· Rural Areas and Hamlets ........................ 14
-
-
Within 2002, two (2) subdivision applications received draft approval, and another
approval of a red line revision to draft approval previously granted. The individual
applications are highlighted on the summary tables.
-
-
2.3 With respect to registered plans, a total of fifty (50) remain active, where building
permits can still be obtained. The geographic distribution of the active registered plans
is as follows:
. Bowmanville .......... ............... ................... 18
. Courtice............... .................................... 16
. Newcastle Village ...................................... 5
. Rural Areas and Hamlets ........................ 11
-
-
-
-
Of the fifty (50) registered plans, ten (10) totalling 747 new units were registered in
2002. The geographic breakdown of the plans of subdivision registered in 2002 is as
follows::
. Bowmanville .............................................. 6
. Courtice ..................................................... 4
. Newcastle Village ...................................... 0
. Rural Areas and Hamlets ..........................0
-
-
-
2.4 The purpose of the summary tables is to illustrate the status of the seventy-five (75)
applications filed with the Municipality. The highlighted (shaded) portions within each
table identify action taken by the Municipality.
-
-
2.5 Subdivision application files awaiting information are monitored regularly by the
assigned Planner and the applicant is informed of the individual status of each
respective file. There are a number of older files which have been inactive for a number
of years. Staff will be reporting shortly on older planning files with recommendation that
they be closed. This list will include applications submitted for draft plan of approval of
plans of subdivision.

BACKGROUND
The current Municipal Fence By-law 2000-105 was passed in June 2000 and deals with
residential and commercial fences, as well as swimming pool enclosures. Over the last
few years several issues have been brought forward regarding the aspect of the By-law
relating to swimming pool enclosures. Building staff as well as Municipal Law
Enforcement staff have had concerns with the provisions of the By-law that apply to the
pool enclosures.
...
....
...
The general provisions of the By-law have not been revised however it is recommended
that changes be made to the swimming pool enclosure aspect of the By-law as follows:
IIIIIIl
1. Pools that are less then 61 centimetres (24 inches), in height will be exempt from
requiring a swimming pool enclosure permit. The following municipalities exempt
pools as follows; Oshawa (24"), Whitby (20"), Ajax (20") and Pickering (24").
Clarington is presently at 46.7 centimetres (18 inches).
....
...
2. The fee for a swimming pool enclosure permit will be set at $75. There is
presently no fee for pool enclosure permits in Clarington. Staff estimate that for
every pool enclosure permit issued, two hours of staff time is required to inspect
the fence enclosure and issue the permit. A comparison of fees charged by
other municipalities is as follows; Oshawa ($50 under review), Whitby ($75), Ajax
($50) and Pickering ($150).
....
....
3. The By-law presently does not permit a temporary fence to be installed around a
swimming pool once the water is placed in the pool. The pool must be filled with
water as soon as possible or there can be damage to the pool. In most cases
the immediate installation of a permanent fence is delayed due to the need to
complete other work such as concrete decking and landscaping. We are
therefore recommending that the By-law allow for the use of a temporary fence
around the pool for a period of not more than 30 days. The Building Inspector
must approve the construction of the temporary fence.
...
...
...
4. If an existing fence does not comply with the Municipal Fence By-law but, in the
opinion of both the Chief Building Official and the Manager of Municipal Law
Enforcement, does provide an equivalent degree of safety, it would be permitted
as a swimming pool enclosure.
IIIIIl
..
5. The existing By-law provides that the horizontal rails of a wooden fence be
placed no more than 1.2 metres (4'-0") apart, measured from the top of the
bottom rail to the underside of the top rail. The proposed by-law would require
the climbable surface of the rails of a wooden fence be spaced at a minimum
distance of 1.2 metres apart. This proposed modification accommodates
different types of fence construction permitting compliance to the fence By-law
while ensuring that the safety of the climbable surface is not compromised.

-
6. Chain link fences that are four feet to six feet in height will require a maximum
1 % inch diamond mesh. Fences that are six feet to seven feet will require a
maximum 2 inch diamond mesh. The specification for the fence construction has
also been revised. This is the standard used by some of the municipalities in the
Durham and Toronto area.
-
-
7. The height of the guards around any platform or deck for an above-ground pool
has been revised to the same standards as in the Ontario Building Code.
-
8. Municipally owned fences that existed prior to the passing of the By-law are
deemed to comply as a pool enclosure.
-
The proposed By-law amendments are recommended by staff as necessary changes in
the interest of public safety.

1.0 PURPOSE OF REPORT
1.1 To establish a municipal policy governing the installation of gates from private property
onto municipal open space (Attachment 1).
....
....
2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 At a meeting held on October 29,2002, Council considered correspondence from
Mr. J. Hill, 74 Carveth Crescent, requesting permission for residents of Carveth
Crescent to install gates to access the municipal property at the rear of their residential
yards. The following resolution was passed:
....
..
...
"THAT the residents of Carveth Crescent be given the option of installing
gates to the Waterfront trail; and
....
THAT staff be directed to develop a policy addressing gates in fences
abutting public properties and that this policy be incorporated into future
subdivision agreements."
...
....
3.0 COMMENTS
3.1 Existinq Policy Reqardinq Fencinq of Open Space Lands
On June 26, 2001, Council approved a Planning Services Department policy
(Attachment # 2) to ensure that standard subdivision agreements include a requirement
that chain link fencing be installed along the boundaries of commercial, industrial, or
residential development abutting open space areas.
...
....
...
..
The purpose of the policy is to prevent encroachment on public lands, to protect
environmentally sensitive features and to prevent accidental trespassing on private
lands.
..
..
Planning Services Department report PD-060-00 regarding Fencing of Open Space
Lands dated July 19, 2000, describes the environmental impacts caused by
encroachments, the removal of vegetation, and dumping on natural areas. The report

further comments on the installation of gates: "In certain instances such as where there
is a trail, it may be appropriate to provide for a gate at the rear of the property. This
could be determined on a site-by-site basis. This would take place at the request and
expense of the homeowners subject to a permit from the Public Works Department.
The Public Works Department would prepare an appropriate design standard. In no
cases would gates be permitted adjacent to highly environmentally sensitive features
such as wetlands and woodlots."
-
-
-
3.2 Existinq Concerns
-
In most instances residents respect and protect the public land abutting their own
properties, however in many other cases, vegetation has been removed, debris has
-
been dumped, gardens have been created and public access has been blocked. This
occurs most often where residential lots with no rear yard fence abut natural open
-
space. Allowing unregulated gate access to natural areas will minimize the
effectiveness of fencing the open space lands and could lead to the problems described
-
above. Regulating where gate access is permitted would significantly minimize the
opportunity for these activities to take place in the future and would protect existing
-
vegetation and wildlife habitat.
-
-
3,3 Financial Implications
The homeowner will be responsible for the entire cost of gate construction. The gate
must be constructed in accordance with construction specifications provided to them by
the Municipality. This will ensure that the fence and gate are constructed to the same
standard and that the gate will last as long as the fence. Any future repairs to the gate
will also be the responsibility of the homeowner.
-
-
-
3.4 Input from Other Departments
This issue impacts the Departments of Operational Services, Planning Services and
Clerks. They have reviewed this report and the proposed policy and concur with the
recommendations.

4.0 CONCLUSION
4.1 Public access to valley lands, woodlots and other natural open space areas is generally
provided through the provision of walkways from the surrounding streets. This allows
for public access and enjoyment of the space while limiting the opportunity for illegal
dumping, clearing of vegetation, and encroachments.
In most instances where residential land abuts municipal open space residents respect
and protect the public land, however in some cases, vegetation has been removed,
debris has been dumped, gardens have been created, and public access has been
blocked.
In order for the municipality to prevent these types of problems from occurring we must
be able to control the points of access to municipal property. The problem areas are
those where regular public use and surveillance do not occur, most frequently where
natural areas are adjacent to residential land. Areas such as maintained parks do not
normally have the same types of problems because the public recognizes them as
spaces for public use and enjoyment. They are also more visible.
Some people perceive valley lands and other natural areas as hazard lands with no real
value. In reality they are valuable assets for public enjoyment, with ecosystems
sensitive to disruption. In absence of a municipal policy, staff have denied gate access
requests in the past by explaining to residents some of the problems that can result
from unregulated access to natural areas. In most instances, residents understand and
accept the municipal position. However, as the Municipality begins to plan for and
construct trails adjacent to residential rear yards, there will be an increased demand
from residents to access these trails directly from their property. Therefore it is
necessary to have a municipal policy to control access points into municipal open
spaces.
It is recommended that gate access should be permitted only in locations that are visible,
easy to inspect, and not sensitive to disruption. These areas would generally include
maintained parks, where gates would not affect the operation or functionality of municipal

facilities, and municipal trails that are directly adjacent to rear yards. All gate access
requests would be reviewed individually with a site inspection. Where gate access is
permitted, gates would be constructed to the same standard and quality as the
subdivision fence. Residents would be required to sign a gate authorization form,
pledging to construct the gate to the standard established by the municipality, not to
disturb or illegally dump on municipal property, and to pay for the entire cost of the gate.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENT
On April 15, 2003 Bill 148, the Emergency Management Act, was proclaimed. What this means
is that the clock has started for Municipalities to meet the Essentials Program requirements.
These requirements include:
1. Identifying a CEMC (Community Emergency Management Co-ordinator)
2. Establishing an Emergency Operations Centre
3. Establishing a Municipal Control Group
4. Establishing a Council approved Emergency Plan
S. Conducting an annual exercise
6. Completing an HIRA (Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment)
7. Setting up an Emergency Management Program Committee
8. Identifying critical infrastructure
9. Public Education Program (providing emergency information to citizens)
10. Final program review to ensure we meet the Essentials Program
As Council is aware certain items on this list are already completed or underway. Items one and
two have been completed but staff suggests that alternates be appointed. Divisional Manager
Gordon Weir has completed the basic CEMC training and staff recommends that he be appointed
as the alternate CEMC.
Staff also recommends that the Municipal Administration Centre be named the alternate
Emergency Operations Centre until a new fire station is constructed in Newcastle Village. At
that time it is recommended that a facility be built there as the alternate Emergency Operations
Centre, which location will be outside the Primary Zone.
The Emergency Plans are in place. A Regional consultant, provided by a.p.G, is presently
reviewing the Nuclear Plan. The Peace Time Plan has been reviewed and updated this year.
A training exercise was conducted last year to test the plan and another will be conducted later
this year.
Some items remain to be completed and are presently underway. We have until April 15, 2004
to complete all items on the above list and staff feel this will not be a problem.
Once we meet the Essentials Program we will then be required to reach the Enhanced and
Comprehensive Programs over the following two years.
Staff will continue to provide Council with timely updates as we proceed through the program of
compliance.

1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 The Community Services Department is again partnering with the Clarington
"Racing Against Drugs" Planning Committee who is hosting the Fourth Annual
"Racing Against Drugs" Program.
1.2 The event, running June 9-13,2003 at the Garnet B. Rickard Recreation
Complex, will see approximately 1 ,500 grade five students from the participating
Clarington Boards of Education attend. As in past years, transportation to and
from the facility will be provided.
2.0 PROGRAM
2.1 The program, through a variety of "interactive" pit stops, promotes awareness
and safety issues relating to drug, alcohol and tobacco use. Through the
involvement of the respective school boards, educational resource packages are
provided, in advance, to the classes attending.
2.2 The program is set up so that each class visits all pit stops on a rotating basis,
where they will take part in an activity that promotes smart choices with regard to
drug and substance abuse issues. Each pit stop is manned by a related agency,
a partner or a sponsor. For the first time the Community Services Department
hosted a pit stop at last year's event and is going to do so this year.
2.3 Current partners and sponsors for the program are:
Durham Region Health Department
Durham Regional Police
Royal Canadian Mounted Police
Ontario Provincial Police
Municipality of Clarington
Clarington Emergency and Fire Services
Laidlaw Education Services
Royal Bank of Canada
Mosport International Raceway
Brine Canada
2.4 Insurance, first aid and security for the program will also be arranged by the
Planning Committee.

1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 At the request of the Mayor's Office, Community Services Department staff met
with the Clarington Public Library to discuss the possibility of the department
operating a coffee kiosk area that has been built as part of the new library
construction. Over the course of two meetings, an operational plan was
discussed where staff will provide a coffee kiosk service for a six month trial
period.
2.0 PROGRAM
2.1 The proposed hours of operation are provided on Attachment #1. Staff will
monitor the buying patterns and alter the operating hours as required, in
consultation with the Library Director. Staffing of this kiosk will include the use of
existing part time Community Services employees. Based on the need and as
the operation evolves, additional staff may be hired.
2.2 The proposed budget (Attachment #2) anticipates the kiosk will operate in a
deficit position. All revenues will remain with the Municipality to help offset the
expenditures, such as supplies, equipment and staffing. If the trial period is
extended, the Community Services Department would consider a revenue
sharing clause, if and when the annual operating revenues exceed expenditures.
2.3 The Operations Department, Building Services staff, have agreed to provide all
maintenance and cleanup services in the library that may result from the kiosk
operation.
2.4 The proposed menu (Attachment #1) for this operation is limited to coffee, juice,
soft drinks, muffins and pastries. The Clarington Public Library is concerned with
the level of noise that any equipment in the area of their main circulation desk
and as such speciality coffees will not be provided. There is also a concern that
sandwiches and other similar foods may present a nuisance for other patrons. A I
physical audit of the location by the Durham Public Health Department
determined that no food preparation could occur on site due to the lack of sink
facilities for the cleaning and disinfecting of dishes and utensils.

3.1 The lack of allocated space for this operation is going to present issues for the
storage of supplies and the inability to prepare any foods on the premises. Also,
the restrictions put on the menu will hinder the ability to maximize revenues. It is
anticipated this kiosk will operate at a deficit.
3.2 The Community Services Department will endeavour to operate this concession
efficiently by controlling operating costs and generating revenues as best as
possible. Subsequent to the six month trial period, staff will evaluate the
operation and prepare a recommendation regarding a long term arrangement.

PAGE 2 of3
BACKGROUND
The Municipality currently has four municipal parking lots in the downtown area of
Bowmanville. Three of these lots are equipped with central parking meters while the fourth lot,
located at 20 King Street East is unregulated.
At present the public is allowed free parking for up to three hours, in all municipal lots and must
only pay if their stay exceeds that time. This situation was instituted as a result of consultation
with the Bowmanville BIA. By-law 95-130 amended the requirements for the lots and set the
limit for free parking, in the lots, at three hours.
Since that time staff have enforced the three hour limit in the lots. Staff has spoken to the
BBIA who have indicated displeasure with the current arrangement and time allotment. The
BBIA have stated that, in their opinion, three hours of free parking is excessive and leads to
abuse. . They have asked the municipality to reduce the free time to two hours.
The two meters for the Division and Church Street lots are eight years old and were
manufactured by Accent. Staff has encountered problems recently with servicing. The meter
in the Silver Street lot is over fifteen years old and has been vandalized in the past. Staff had
budgeted to replace all three units this year.
CONCLUSION
The first step in reorganizing the parking situation, in the downtown of Bowmanville, is to
reduce the free parking in the lots from three hours to two hours. An amendment to the
Clarington Traffic By-law 91-56 is attached for that purpose. Once the amendment is passed
the signs in the lots will have to be replaced to reflect the lower time.
The new meters will be programmed for two hours free parking and will be configured to
charge $2.00 per day for any time over the two hour limit. The fee for the monthly Parking
Permits for the municipal lots will also be adjusted to $40.00 per month. This is in keeping with
the fee charged for a monthly Municipal On-Street Parking Permit. New signs will be required
to reflect the rates.

At present staff propose to leave the lot at 20 King Street East without a meter. This lot will be
appropriately signed for the two hour limit. Staff will monitor the lot and any vehicles left for
longer than two hours will be ticketed.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENT:
In 2001, a new property code (referred to as a realty tax qualifier) was established for
provincially-owned tenanted properties. The letter lip" was assigned. For example, CT
means commercial taxable. There is now CP which means commercial tenant of the
province. In the same year, Clarington's first property of this nature in the non-
residential class appeared on our returned roll. The property was the large gas station/
fast food emporium on Highway 401 between Newcastle and Newtonville.
All Municipal Clerks and Treasurers received the attached letter (Attachment # 1), dated
February 5, 2001. The intent of the letter was to explain the new tax qualifier and how it
was to be treated. Paragraph two indicates that tenanted portions of provincially owned
properties are subject to payment in lieu of taxes and not subject to property taxation.
Paragraph three also indicates that lip" signifies payment in lieu of municipal and
education taxes.
When a payment in lieu of taxes or "PIL" property is in the residential class, the
education share is forwarded to the appropriate school board. If a PIL property is in the
non-residential class, the education share is retained by the local municipality. This is
prescribed by regulation and applies to all PIL properties (OPG for example).
For the 2001 and 2002 taxation years, the tenanted property in question was treated as
per the letter attached. That is, the Municipality retained the education portion
approximating $82,000 annually. However, during 2002, as the Municipality was
completing the Financial Information Return for the Province, the provincial software
would not allow the property to be entered as a PI L and appropriately reflect the
education retained. Staff spoke with Ministry officials in July, who indicated that the
Municipality was appropriately treating the education retained.
Later in 2002, it became apparent that the issue was not resolved. Staff spoke with
Ministry officials again who, at this time, indicated that there was significant
discrepancies across the province. The province was reviewing the issue and was
looking to issuing a regulation to clarify the direction. I provided them with the letter
(attached) that the Ministry had issued.
On December 20,2002, the Province issued Ontario Regulation 423/02, which dictates
that for all properties coded with a lip" for provincially tenanted properties, the education
portion of the tax bill is to be forwarded to the applicable school board. This results in
an anhualloss to Clarington of education retained funds of approximately $82,000.
Across the Region, Clarington has over 80% of the non-residential tenanted provincial
properties. Therefore, the other municipalities in Durham have only a minor impact as a
result of this regulation.

Subject: Payment in lieu of taxes on provincially owned properties rented to private
tenants - Municipal Tax Assistmce Act, Section 4(3)
I am writing to inform you that Bill 140 (Continued Protectionfor Property Taxpayers
Act. 2000) has amended the Municipal Tax Assistllllce Act.
Section 4(3) of the Act bas been amended to clarify that tenanted portions of
provincially owned properties are subject to payment in lieu of taxes and not subj~ct to
property taxation. These amendments have been made to stJ'f'.JIm line provincial payments
in lieu to municipalities.
The Ontario Property Assessment Corporation (OPAC) bas confmned that the 2001
assessment roll returned to municipalities incorporates these amendments.
Provincially- owned tenanted properties now have a new realty tax qualifier of uP," wbich
signifies payment in lieu of municipal and education taxes.
With OPAC implementing these amendments in the 2001 taxation year. municipalities
will no longer have to issue individual tax bills for tenanted provincial properties. The
ministry will be able to process payments in lieu of taxes to municipalities based on both
the assessment roll and the tax rates entered on the Online Property Tax Analysis
(OPTA) system. If, however, your municipality is not on the OPTA system, we will not
be able to issue these payments until we have received your payment-in-lieu (PIL)
entitlement statement. This statement should show the following: property roll number;
realty taX class (RTC); realty tax qualifier (RTQ)j assessed value; applicable municipal
and education tax rates including the "CVA PIL" and the capping adjustment; and the total
amount of the PIL entitlement.
If your tax bills included local improvement charges in the past, you may now have to
invoice these charges separately to the ministty that owns the property. Your invoice for
drainage charges similarly should be sent directly to the owner ministry.

2. Because payments in lieu are being paid under the Municipal T~ AssisllmCe Act.
there is no authority for the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing to pay
interest or penalties on any outstanding amount.

4.
The 2001 assessment roll indicates the name and address of the ministry that
owns the property. In the past, the OWDer ministry's address was shown as that of
