(hereafter referred to as Players/West Diamond) to Bowmanville Investments Inc. The Assumption Agreements identify which obligations Bowmanville Investments Inc. will take on, which obligations will remain the responsibility of Players/West Diamond and which obligations are discharged by reason of performance. 1.2 During their review of the Principles of Understanding and the Subdivision/Consent Agreement, Bowmanville Investments Inc. requested that a number of clauses be added to the Assumption Agreements. The principal amendments requested are as follows: 1.3 Firstly, that prior to Site Plan approval for Phase 2 (see Attachment 1) of the subject lands, the Municipality agrees to review the recital within the Principles of Understanding which grants the Municipality the option to acquire and convert the private roads to public roads when intensification of the commercial lands takes place. The purpose is to establish a grid system of roads at that time. A review of the option to purchase the private roads, granted by Players/West Diamond to the Municipality, in connection with the development Phase 2, would be appropriate. Amongst other things, the private roads define in part the site in which the Loblaws Superstore and associated parking had originally been proposed. 1.4 Secondly, that the Municipality will be willing to consider modifications to the Concept Plan for development which are generally in keeping with the Concept Plan. The original Concept Plan for development included a Loblaws Superstore on part of the easterly portion of the subject lands. Since that development will not occur changes will need to be made to the Concept Plan. 1.5 All major Site Plan issues have been resolved and the final technical review of the revised Site Plan submission is nearing completion. The issuance of Conditional Site Plan approval is anticipated upon receipt of the final revised plans and drawings. 1.6 Bowmanville Investments Inc. has submitted both a Site Servicing Permit and a Building Permit with the Clarington Building Division. The developer has stated that they cannot proceed with site servicing of the subject lands until the matter of the revised Assumption Agreements has been satisfactorily resolved. It remains the developer's intention to begin construction of the building by early October, 2009. 2.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 2.1 The requests made by Bowmanville Investments Inc. are reasonable and it is recommend that Council approve the Assumption of Agreement Principles of ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO.: PSD-077-09 PAGE 3 ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO.: PSD-077-09 PAGE 3 Understanding, as Amended, and the.
