BACKGROUND 2.1 On April 3, 1998, Barry-Bryan Associates Limited submitted applications on behalf of Clinic Buildings (1979) Limited for site plan approval and removal of the Holding "H" symbol. The subject lands are located at the northeast corner of Varcoe Road and Highway 2 in Courtice. They are legally described as Part Lot 34, Concession 2, in the former Township of Darlington. 2.2 The removal of the "Holding (H)" symbol would permit development of a medical and dental clinic containing 2,787 mZ of office space and 929 m2 of retail commercial floorspace and a senior citizen's apartment building with a maximum of 126 dwelling units. 3. STAFF COMMENTS 3.1 The lands are currently zoned "Holding -General Commercial Exception ((H)C1- 11)". The Holding "H" symbol can be removed upon Council being satisfied that the development will be adequately serviced, have proper access, will be used for the purposes intended under the Zoning By-law, and that issues with adjacent landowners have been addressed. 3.2 The site plan application has been circulated to the appropriate agencies and remains subject to various conditions of approval. Development issues will be addressed through the site plan agreement. The agreements with the Municipality must be executed to the satisfaction of the Director of Planning and Development and the Director of Public Works prior to the issuance of a building permit. 3.3 Council received two letters from adjacent property owners outlining privacy concerns. Staff have addressed these concerns by requesting a fence along the eastern property line which matches the existing fence height and style. The applicant has also agreed to plant additional trees along this area to ensure privacy. 619 REPORT NO.: PD-72-98 PAGE 3 3.4 Pursuant to Sections 34 and 36 of the Planning Act, a Zoning By-law Amendment to remove the Holding "H" symbol is not subject to the normal appeal period applicable to standard rezoning applications, and therefore shall be deemed final and binding should Council grant its approval. 4. RECOMMENDATION 4.1 In consideration of the comments noted above, Staff would have no objections to the removal of the Holding "H" symbol as shown on the attached By-law.
