Minutes 2 - March 5,2001 i DELEGATIONS (a) Bill Humber, 15 Beech Avenue, Bowmanville, L1 C 3A1 addressed Committee on behalf of the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association. Mr. Humber advised that a report will be forthcoming from the Public Works Department in the near future addressing a plan for the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood. One of the key elements which the Association has requested, ie, the burying of hydro wires, has not been included in the plan because of project costs. The Association, therefore requests that Council designate the appropriate amount of funds for this work to be done. The 1991 CAUSE study recommended the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood be designated as a Historical Area and it therefore requires special, imaginative treatment in order to enhance the beauty of the neighbourhood. Mr. Humber is requesting that the necessary resources be made available to IL facilitate the completion of the project to bury the hydro wires, that these resources be drawn from the Veridian Corporation funds and that the Municipality work in conjunction with Veridian to encourage proper tree planting practices. (b) Jim Faught, 75 Scugog Street, Bowmanville, L1 C 3H9 was called but was not present. (c) Ronald Worboy, Barrister, Solicitor, 163 Simcoe Street N., Oshawa, L1 G 4S6 addressed Council on behalf of Tom Benschop and Don Welsh with respect to Report PD-024-01. Mr. Worboy expressed support for the recommendations contained in the report and indicated his clients' appreciation for the effort put forth by the Planning Department in dealing with this application. (d) Rick Morrison, President of Bowmanville Newcastle Baseball Association, P.O. Box 346, Bowmanville, L1C 1J5 addressed Committee with respect to Report WD-09-01. Mr. Morrison expressed support for the recommendations contained within the Report and requested Council give serious consideration to the recommendations and set funds aside for the implementation of the planned major Outdoor Park Facility. He stated that this will enhance the long term vision of the Baseball Association and it is his hope that it will also encompass Soccer activities. The development of the facility could alleviate issues surrounding Neighbourhood Parks, ie, parking, playgrounds, etc. Councillor Schell chaired this portion of the meeting. PUBLIC MEETINGS Pursuant to the Planning Act, the Council of the Municipality of ti Clarington, through its General Purpose and Administration Committee, is holding a Public Meeting for the following applications: (a) Clarington Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning Application Part Lot 29,Concession 3, Former Township of Darlington—Joe - Domitrovic (b) Rezoning and Site Plan Application, Part Lots 29/30, Concession 2, Former Township of Darlington — Richard H. Gay Holding Ltd. - 3 r J 2 G.P. &A. Minutes 3 - March 5,2001 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D. i The Clerk's Department sent public notice for the rezoning applications and the Official Plan Amendment application by first class mail on or before February 2, 2001 to all property owners within 120 metres of the subject property in accordance with the latest municipal assessment record. In addition, notices were also posted on the sites prior to February 2, 2001. This notice procedure is in compliance with the Ontario Regulation made under the Planning Act. (a) Report PD-020-01 —Joe Domitrovic the purpose and effect of the application is to amend the "Green Space" designation within the Official Plan and rezone the lands from "Agricultural"to permit the existing automotive body shop. No one spoke in objection to or in support of the application. Joe Domitrovic, 3872 Courtice Road, Courtice, L1 E 2L5 was present to answer questions of Committee Members. (b) Report PD-021-01 —Richard H. Gay Holding Ltd. -the purpose and effect of this application is to rezone the subject lands from "Holding—Urban Residential Type One ((H)R1) Zone"to permit the establishment of a professional office. George Gouldbourn, 1721 Highway#2, Courtice, L1 E 2R5 questioned how, when the subject lands are designated "living area"within the Durham Region Official Plan, this application could possibly conform to the policies. In his opinion this proposed use is not a "limited office". Mr. Gouldbourn questioned the parking in the front portion of the property; whether the sewer in the rear lot will close off the two lots from the back; whether additional parking will be required in the future; whether houses will still be able to be built on the two back lots and whether the area will be residential or commercial. Mr. Gouldbourn is of the opinion that this application is premature until such time as the Courtice area study has been completed. l Robin Purnell, 1705 Highway#2, Courtice, L1 E 2115 stated her concern with the storage of construction supplies and equipment on the site and the possible early start up of the construction equipment. Ms. Purnell questioned the proposed use of the vacant property immediately east of the subject property. No one spoke in support of the application. Rick Gay, Richard H. Gay Holding Limited, 97 Athol Street East, Oshawa, L1 H 1 J8 advised Committee that the subject house was built by his father in 1939. It is his intention to use the property as an office for his construction company, not a construction yard. The house will L remain as is with no internal changes being made. Mr. Gay stated that the parking need not be to the front of the lot, it could be accommodated _ anywhere on the site. It is his intention to use this property as an interim office until such time as the overall plan for the area is complete. 303 G.P. & A.

BACKGROUND I 2.1 There are two Plans of Subdivision that affect the Port of Newcastle Neighbourhood. The first subdivision, 18T 91004 (Phase 1) was originally draft approved on September 1996 and subsequently amended in February 2000. It contains 354 dwelling units and is currently under development. The second, 18T 96013 (Phase 2) was draft approved in December 1997. It includes a total of 338 single detached and semi-detached units and coastal villas in the western portion of the neighbourhood and in the eastern portion of the neighbourhood medium density residential, mixed-use residential/commercial plus hotel i uses, totalling 310 units. These are the lands subject to the rezoning application. 2.2 On January 29, 2001 Kelvin Whalen submitted a rezoning application on behalf of 1 138337 Ontario Inc. (The Kaitlin Group) to include townhouses on the subject site. 3. SITE CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING USES I_ 3.1 The site is currently vacant. The topsoil has been disturbed as a result of the installation of municipal services. 3.2 Surrounding Uses: East — vacant and marina uses North — single and semi detached(link) dwellings West — currently vacant, however, draft approved for single and semi detached (link) dwellings South — vacant and Lake Ontario 602 i REPORT PD-026-01 PAGE 3 4. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 4.1 The Durham Region Official Plan designates the lands as Living Area and Waterfront Major Open Space with a Waterfront Place symbol. Lands designated grated as Living Area shall be for housing purposes, limited office and retail uses. Lands identified with a Waterfront Place symbol shall be developed as focal points along the Lake Ontario waterfront. The predominant land use may include marinas, recreational, tourist, cultural and community uses. Residential and employment opportunities may be permitted which support and complement the predominant uses. The proposal appears to conform to the provisions of the Regional Official Plan. 4.2 The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject lands in part Local Central Area, Urban Residential with a Medium Density symbol, and Tourism Node. Local Central Areas shall serve as focal points of activity for residential communities and shall develop as mixed use areas containing commercial, residential, recreational, community, cultural and institutional uses. In addition, Local Central Areas are gathering places for the community and shall incorporate public squares where possible. Medium density residential uses shall be developed at 31-60 units per net hectare. The predominant housing form shall be townhouses, trip lex/quadrap lex and low rise apartments to a maximum of four storeys. A Tourism Node symbol is shown in the vicinity of the marina. Permitted uses include a marina, a hotel, a theatre and other cultural uses, restaurants, speciality commercial uses j and public parkland. The proposed uses are permitted and consistent with the Official Plan. 5. ZONING BY-LAW CONFORMITY 5.1 The lands subject to the application are currently zoned as follows: Block A- "Holding — Urban Residential Exception ((H) R4-18)" which permits apartments. 603 REPORT PD-026-01 PAGE 4 Block B - "Holding — Urban Residential Exception ((H) R4 —19)" which currently permits apartments and a variety of general commercial uses. Block C - "Holding — General Commercial Exception ((H) Cl- 23)" which permits apartments and variety of non-residential uses including a hotel. Townhouses are not permitted in Blocks A, B, or C and therefore it is necessary to rezone these lands. 6. PUBLIC MEETING 6.1 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 subject lands. 6.2 At the time of writing this report, two inquiries were received from homeowners in the vicinity of the subject site. Both individuals were unaware that the subject lands were approved for apartments. They were concerned that apartments would decrease property values, and the height of the apartments would impede their view of the lake. The individuals did not express concern regarding townhouses on the subject site. I During a site visit, Staff visited the sales office at the Port of Newcastle. The subject site is shown as fixture residential, mixed use residential/commercial and hotel. The type of � residential development, height or scale are not indicated. The applicant has been forwarded a letter indicating that the currently approved land uses be shown, including the zoned uses which comprise the future residential blocks. i 7. AGENCY COMMENTS 7.1 The Clarington Fire Department did not note any safety concerns. 7.2 The Region of Durham Planning Department indicated that the proposal would necessitate an amendment to draft approval for plan of subdivision 18T 96013. Regional Planning also provides preliminary comments on behalf of Regional Works. They indicate that sanitary sewer and water supply facilities are available to the subject lands. All of the Region's requirements, financial and otherwise will be covered through a Regional Subdivision Agreement. G � 604 i REPORT PD-026-01 PAGE 5 7.3 The Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority indicated that the subject site is partially in the fill limit for the Graham Creek and therefore is subject to its Fill, Construction and Alteration to Waterways Regulation. 4 f The Authority also noted that the Plan of Subdivision affecting these lands is draft approved, however, conditions have not been cleared. The Authority has not reviewed any detailed stormwater management plan for the area, no sedimentation/erosion control plan or grading plan. A draft Open Space Master Plan has been prepared but has not been reviewed by the Authority. The Master Plan may affect the rear portion of the subject site and grades at Lakebreeze Drive and blocks south of it towards Lake Ontario.

HOLT ROAD NORTH OF TAUNTON ROAD PART LOT 21, CONCESSION 5, FORMER TOWNSHIP OF DARLINGTON FILE NO.: PLN 4.2 Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to Council the following: 1. THAT Report PD-027-01 be received for information. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 Mr. Chris McKee, President of the Oshawa Vikings Rugby Club addressed Council at their February 26, 2001 meeting regarding the development potential of their property on Holt Road, west of Hampton. He indicated that the Oshawa Rugby Club purchased the land west of Hampton in 1987. The property was zoned "Agricultural Exception (A-1)". The club submitted a rezoning application which was denied by Council. iLast year, Rogers AT&T approached the Club to purchase the property to build a telecommunications tower. Rogers AT&T did not receive favourable support from the Municipality for such an application. Mr. McKee expressed frustration in owning a property that they cannot use or sell. He subsequently requested that staff review the proposal of Rogers AT&T. c j 609 i REPORT PD-027-01 PAGE 2 1 1.2 In addition to Mr. McKee's presentation, Mr. Glenn Elliott of Elliott & Hughes submitted on behalf of the Oshawa Rugby Club a letter requesting Council's assistance in obtaining a building permit for Rogers AT&T to construct the telecommunications tower. i Mr. Elliott acknowledged that Rogers AT&T was prepared to completely indemnify the Municipality with respect to the use of the Holt Road unopened road allowance north of Taunton Road. Mr. Elliott was of the opinion this offer adequately protects the Municipality against any liability with respect to the use of the road. l 1.3 Council in light of Mr. McKee's presentation and Mr. Elliott's submission approved a l resolution that the delegation of Mr. McKee be referred to staff for review and report. 2. STAFF COMMENTS 2.1 Planning staff have had various communications with Rogers AT&T with respect to the submission of a site plan application for a telecommunications tower on the subject lands. Rogers AT&T have been informed that since the subject site is not located on a road which is improved and maintained year round, the Municipality's Zoning By-law does not permit the erection of a building or structure. Accordingly, site plan approval could not be considered. 2.2 The Clarington Public Works Department confirmed that the subject property is located on a section of Holt Road that is both unopened and unmaintained. Municipal Policy for Entrances states that an entrance permit cannot be granted for access to or egress from either an unmaintained road or an unopened or unimproved road. The Municipality's risk for liability could increase when vehicles utilize roads that are not properly maintained. i 2.3 With respect to the indemnification proposal offered by Rogers AT&T, the Municipality's solicitor has indicated this does not shield the Municipality of liability in the event of an occurrence from the use of this road. i 610 i REPORT PD-027-01 PAGE 3 3• CONCLUSION 3.1 In order to permit the development of the subject property, the Oshawa Vikings Rugby Club would be required to file the rezoning application. The question of access to an improved public street would have to be addressed through any applications filed. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, Davi J C me, .I.P., R.P.P.

Applications A2001/012 was to permit an increase in the total lot coverage by all accessory buildings from a maximum of 40% to 97% of the total floor area of the dwelling. The application as applied for was deemed not to be minor in nature, so Staff recommended approval of this application at 159.6 m' (55%). The Committee did not have a full complement and those in attendance felt the application should be denied as the applicant was not willing to reduce the amount of his application. To ensure the applicant received a fair process, the Committee decided to table the application to the next meeting when more members would be in attendance. 3. Staff have reviewed the Committee's decisions and are satisfied that the applications which received approval are in conformity with the Official Plan policies, consistent with the intent of the Zoning By-law and those approved are minor in nature and desirable. Council's concurrence with the Committee of Adjustment decisions is required in order j to afford staff's official status before the Ontario Municipal Board in the event of an appeal of any decision of the Committee of Adjustment.

I 620 i DNP029-01 THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON REPORT Meeting: General Purpose and Administration Committee File# Date: Monday, March 26, 2001 Res. # Report#: PD-029-01 FILE#: CG 1.5 By-law# Subject: MUNICIPAL POLICY FOR TEMPORARY CROSSING GUARDS FILE: CG 1.5 6 Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended to Council the following: 1. THAT Report PD-029-01 be received; 2. THAT further to Resolution GPA-435-00 that Temporary Adult Crossing Guards be utilized only where there is a clearly identifiable increase in danger for children crossing i a street due to increased vehicular traffic from construction vehicles and/or traffic diverted due to construction activity in accordance with the process outlined in Section 3 of Report PD-029-01; and 3. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegation be advised of Council's decision. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 In 1997, Council received a petition from parents for placing an Adult Crossing Guard at the corner of Beaver and Robert Streets in Newcastle Village. This was at the time of the demolition and reconstruction of the Newcastle Public School. Staff and Council supported this request, on a temporary basis, due to the volume of parental vehicular traffic and construction traffic in this location. In September 2000, staff relocated this Crossing Guard to the intersection of Beaver and Edward Streets on a permanent basis. Several parents requested that Council restore a Crossing Guard at the other location at Beaver and Robert Streets. On October 16, 2000, Council approved an extension of the temporary Crossing Guard until June 2001. 621 REPORT NO.: PD-029-01 PAGE 2 1.2 At the same meeting Council adopted Resolution #GPA-435-00 "THAT the need for additional [temporary] school crossing guards be investigated in other areas of the Municipality where schools are being built and adjacent subdivisions are being constructed". i 2. COMMENT 2.1 Staff from Public Works and Planning Departments reviewed Council's request to determine if there were some objective criteria that could be utilized to provide some F- guidance to determine when a temporary Adult Crossing Guard should be deployed. Staff concluded that there were no numeric criteria or set of conditions that could adequately be utilized to determine when a temporary Adult Crossing Guard was needed. Situations in each plan of subdivision vary so greatly (construction phasing, location of school, traffic volumes, timing of school construction, etc.). In essence, each situation is unique. 2.2 Staff consulted with other municipalities in Durham Region. No lakeshore Municipality has a policy in place regarding Temporary Crossing Guards. Moreover, they do not favour such a policy for the same reason that staff do not recommend that the Clarington establish such a policy. Once an Adult Crossing Guard is deployed, even on a temporary basis, it is difficult to subsequently reduce the level of service. 2.3 The Town of Ajax indicated that if there were children crossing at a location where there was construction, they asked the construction company to provide a flag person until the construction was finished. T'he Public Works Department indicate that this is not desirable since it may impact the costs of construction and that flag persons may not be fully attentive to the children's movements. E 2.4 It is therefore recommended that, if Council wants to pursue a policy of deploying a temporary Adult Crossing Guards across the Municipality, it should be a reactive: approach. Specifically, there should be a formal request by a school board and a 622 REPORT NO.: PD-029-01 PAGE 3 subsequent review of the situation by staff to determine if there is danger to children crossing the street due to increased vehicular traffic from construction activity or revised traffic patterns due to construction activity. It is further recommended that the School Board and School Council be informed of the termination date for the temporary crossing. 3. CONCLUSION If Council wishes to pursue a policy of hiring and deploying temporary Adult Crossing E Guards, it is recommended that they only be utilized in a limited manner where there is a clearly identifiable increase in danger for children crossing a street. The process to be utilized is as follows: I a) the relevant school board make a formal request to the Municipality; and b) staff review the request and make a recommendation for Council's consideration. C) the School Board and School Council and Principal be informed of the time- period for the temporary Crossing Guard. i Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, C i vi J rome, C.I.P., R.P.P.

STREETS TO MEARNS AVENUE AND SOPER CREEK DRIVE, BOWMANVILLE FILE: CG 1.5 3 Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended to Council the following: 1. THAT Report PD-030-01 be received; 2. THAT the Adult Crossing Guard at the Liberty Street/Concession Street intersection be relocated to the Mearns Avenue/Soper Creek Drive intersection; and 3. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegation be advised of Council's decision. 1. BACKGROUND Fit 1.1 The Adult Crossing Guard at the intersection of Liberty Street and Concession Street in Bowmanville was originally hired when this intersection was an all-way stop. At that time an Adult Crossing Guard was warranted due to traffic volumes, a four-way stop at the intersection and large numbers of children crossing to attend Vincent Massey Public School. Two factors have now changed the present situation. The intersection which is now signalized provides the children ample crossing protection without the aid of an adult. € Most of the young students who were using his crossing now attend John M. James Public School which opened January 8, 2001, north and east of Mearns Avenue. Some i senior public and high school students continue to use this crossing. 625 i REPORT NO.: PD-030-01 PAGE 2 i 1.2 Development of lands in the north part of Bowmanville on either side of Mearns Avenue is leading to increasing traffic using Mearns Avenue. This has caused staff to review the need for a Crossing Guard for children crossing Mearns Avenue to attend Vincent Massey Public School. I 2. MUNICIPAL POLICY The standard method to determine the need for an Adult Crossing Guard in an unbiased and consistent method was developed by the Institute of Transportation Engineers and is r- used by many municipalities throughout North America.. The technique involves the use of a stop watch to determine the length and quantity of safe gaps between vehicles. In 1991 the Municipality of Clarington adopted a "50% delay" as a threshold for the introduction of an Adult School Crossing Guard. 3. COMMENT Recent studies on Mearns Avenue at Soper Creek Drive indicate that an Adult Crossing } E Guard should now be considered for that location due to increased traffic volumes. The Traffic Study results conducted by the Traffic Co-ordinator are as follows: ■ January 25, 2001 am - 55.8% r ■ January 25, 2001 pm - 62.5% ■ January 29, 2001 am - 44.3% ■ January 29, 2001 pm - 49.8% Average: 53.1% This crossing meets the Municipal warrants. Accordingly, it is recommended that the Adult Crossing Guard be relocated from Concession Street to Mearns at Soper Creek Drive. r 3.2 Maureen Running, Principal at Vincent Massey Public School, gave the following information regarding students attending that school: 626 REPORT NO.: PD-030-01 PAGE 3 ■ with the revised school boundaries, zero children live north of Concession within the walking distance; 80 children live east of Mearns Avenue within walking distance. Anywhere from 11 to 33 children were observed crossing Mearns during the study periods, as many parents drive the children to school. C - 4. CONCLUSION The Adult Crossing Guard at the intersection of Concession/Liberty Streets should be relocated to Mearns Avenue at Soper Creek Drive in Bowmanville. Prior to the relocation of the crossing guard at the new location, the traffic signs and pavement markings would have to be physically installed. Public Works staff will be responsible for the above works. L: Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, r David rome, M.C.I.P., R.P.P. Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.

THAT residents Robert and Darlene Cochrane and delegations be advised of Council's decision. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Report WD-05-01 I 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 In the fall of 2000, a petition was received by some of the residents of Lownie Court, Bowmanville, requesting the deletion of sidewalks from Lownie Court to Mearns Avenue. Report WD-05-01 (Attachment No. 1) recommended a compromise to straighten the sidewalk through the Lownie Court bulb to improve the alignment. Two residents made 7 delegations to Council at its meeting of February 26, 2001, and Council passed Resolution #C-093-01: 648 i ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO. WD-05-01 PAGE 2 "THAT Report WD-05-01 be received and referred back to staff for review and report to address the concerns expressed by the residents." 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 Report WD-05-01 deals with the need for sidewalks through Lownie Court to Meams Avenue. Some residents continue to suggest that there is no need for sidewalks to Mearns Avenue since there is a nearby walkway leading to the school north of the subdivision. However, the walkway leads directly into the school's paved playground, which is inappropriate as a pedestrian route for the general public. A direct sidewalk connection to Meams Avenue is in the best interest of the neighbourhood. I 3.2 In conjunction with their request to eliminate sidewalks from their boulevards, the residents are also requesting that the sidewalk on Budd Lane be relocated from the west side to the east side of the street. It is their contention that the east side of the street is preferred since the streetlights are on the east side and students walking to school from the south can walk a shorter distance. Staff have considered the walking routes to and from the school and also to and from the Bowmanville downtown area and conclude that neither side of the street represents an unacceptable location for sidewalk on Budd Lane. (Streetlighting is not a factor in sidewalk location because streetlights provide sufficient lighting to both sides of roadways.) Based on this review, and the fact that relocating the sidewalk would require changes to the approved plans and would likely generate new complaints from other affected residents, it is concluded that changing the sidewalk location is not justified. - 3.3 It should be clarified that staff do not ignore or discourage requests to relocate services. All - requests are reviewed for their merits, but unless compelling evidence is shown that information was overlooked,no changes are made. The location of items such as sidewalks, supermailboxes, streetlights,walkways,hydrants, etc. is not necessarily an exact science and many p urchasers research these issues prior to signing an agreement of purchase and sale. Once the Municipality approves the final design, it is made public and staff and the C 649 i ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO. WD-05-01 PAGE 3 developer must adhere to the approved drawings. Changing the location of services to satisfy one resident will simply shift the issue to affect other homeowners. 3.4 Report WD-05-01 recommended a compromise to straighten the sidewalk through the Lownie Court bulb to improve the alignment. That proposal does not contradict the approved drawings or the Municipality's policy against relocating sidewalks because C - sidewalks were not added or deleted,or shifted from one side of the street to the other. 4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 It is staff's recommendation that Addendum to Report WD-05-01 be received and that the recommendations in Report WD-05-01 be approved. Public Works will continue in their approach whereby they adhere to approved service locations, unless approved C v otherwise by the Director of Public Works.

Petition from Lownie Court residents dated November 28,2000 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington entered into a Subdivision Agreement, I registered August 31, 1999 with St. Stephen's Estates Inc. to develop lands by plan of subdivision, located in Bowmanville and described as Plan 40M-1977. The agreement E, required the developer to construct all roadworks, including sidewalks along the north side of Lownie Court(Attachment No. 1). i 2.2 Mr. and Mrs. Cochrane of 92 Lownie Court approached the Municipality on November 27, 2000 to inquire why sidewalks were required at the west lin�iTTtt f�ff ll "AC��?ffl�T�8g1 651 ADDENDUM TO REPORT Nn.: WD-05-01 REPORT NO.: WD-05-01 PAGE 2 Mr.Cochrane explained that he bought a home on a court because the builder assured him there would be no sidewalks. Engineering staff reviewed the drawings (approved May, 1999) and confirmed that sidewalk was required on Lownie Court linking to Meams Avenue, and that it could not be deleted because it formed part of the sidewalk network for the neighbourhood as a whole. 2.3 Mr. Cochrane advised that the sidewalk was presently being constructed, and he felt that it was unfair that the sidewalk would be finished before he could pursue the issue politically with a petition. It was stressed to Mr. Cochrane that even with a petition, it was very unlikely that the sidewalk would be deleted due to the neighbourhood pedestrian issues involved. However, in fairness to his concerns of having insufficient time to pursue the issue politically, staff contacted the site engineers who agreed to postpone the sidewalk installation. Due to the inclement weather and late season construction, staff and site engineers were able to agree on postponement of installation until Spring. It was clarified to Mr. Cochrane that this delay in construction must not be misinterpreted as a decision to eliminate the sidewalk and that staff would not be supporting his request. He appreciated this assistance, and agreed to clarify the situation to his neighbours. 2.4 A petition was subsequently received b Council i Y n early December (Attachment No. 2) showing that most of the directly affected residents prefer not to have sidewalk on this court. 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT r_ 3.1 Although most new homeowners agree with the need for sidewalks in new subdivisions, many prefer not to have sidewalks fronting their own property. As a result, the Public F Works Department often receives requests to relocate sidewalks to the `other side of the street' or to delete sidewalks altogether. Engineering staff advise residents that sidewalks benefit the entire neighbourhood by providing links to walkways, parks, schools and major roads, etc. In this particular situation, a direct sidewalk link to Meams Avenue is an important component of the neighbourhood's pedestrian network. i i i REPORT NO.: NVD-05-01 PAGE 3.2 The Public Works Department encourages prospective new homeowners to inquire at our offices regarding sidewalks, lot grading and any other relevant issues that may concern them,prior to making their purchase. Many people take advantage of this service. 3.3 Public Works (Engineering Division) has maintained a policy that once a sidewalk location is approved, it must not be relocated or deleted to accommodate individual requests from residents fronting it. Relocation or deletion would affect the neighbourhood sidewalk system and would also undermine staffs commitment to other potential buyers who have been assured of the sidewalk location. 3.4 In this ecifi sp c situation, staff reviewed a compromise to reduce the visual impact of the sidewalk on the boulevards for Houses 996, #98, #102 and #104. Since the cul-de-sac is offset, it results in increased walking distance around the bulb. Engineering staff pr mse to carry pedestrian traffic across the bulb to eliminate the sidewalk around the bulb (Attachment No. 1). This compromise is reasonable since there is no through vehicular traffic at the bulb and the intent of the neighbourhood sidewalk network is still maintained. 4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 Based on the issues outlined in this report, it is recommended that staff be authorized to complete the sidewalk when weather permits, in the modified location outlined in this report.

THAT the cost of upgrading the Division and Church Street lots central meters be approved in the amount of$1,600 with the funds being drawn from the Parking Reserve Account ( 41110-162-X. BACKGROUND: The Canadian Mint has begun production of three new Canadian coins ($0.05, $0.10 and $0.25). These coins have a higher steel content than those coins in current circulation. The current central meter software will read these as invalid coins. In order for these coins to be accepted it is necessary for E-prom software to be installed and the coin validators to be reprogrammed.

Normally the cost of this change is $450.00/machine, but because new e-prom software must be installed to deal with the new coins,the parking rate change would then not be chargeable as the development team would already be working with the software. 3 Report CD-12-01 -2_ March 26,2001 ESTIMATED COSTS: The project was one of several that had been anticipated in 2000 and the money designated in the budget for those purposes. The costs related to changing the E-prom software is $450.00 for each of the two machines. The costs to re-program the validator configuration is $150.00. Allowing for the service call to do the install would bring the total cost to approximately $1,600.00. RECOMMENDATION: h i Staff respectfully recommend that Committee approve the expenditure of$1,600.00. The funds would be carried over from the 2000 Capital Budget, page 85 and financed from the Parking Lot Reserve fund 1110-162-X. This matter has been discussed with the Treasury Department which is in agreement with these arrangements. _ Respectfully tted, Reviewed by, � t rl ? P i L. B e, A.

THAT Report CD-15-01 be received; and 2. THAT Council authorize staff to enforce the provisions of the Traffic By-law as they relate to overnight parking. -OR- RECOMMENDATION B: THAT Report CD-15-01 be received for information. BACKGROUND: In May 19 99 Council passed an amendment to the Traffic By-law 91-58 which prohibited on street was intended to ensure the parking between the hours of 3:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. The section nhaand 1 municipal streets are not used as permanent parking spaces for vehicles which were cluttering i obstructing the roadway. i 1= 816 RF:port CD-15-01 -2- March 26, 2001 Throughout the winter of 1999-2000 Parking Enforcement staff were called out several times to assist the Public Works Department with vehicles that were parked on the street and obstructing the passage of the ploughs. Through the spring of 2000 staff continued to receive complaints concerning vehicles being parked on the street overnight. During March April and May of 2000 Parking Enforcement staff went out eight times to enforce the overnight provisions. Although the number of tickets issued remained high, with an average of 123 tickets per night, the officers noted that the areas that had been previously ticketed were showing _ higher levels of compliance when they returned. In total, 982 tickets were issued over the course of M three months. Many complaints were received relating to the enforcement on an overnight basis. In some cases citizens raised concerns about a lack of parking space on their property for the number, type and size of vehicles they owned. In response to these concerns, the Municipal On Street Parking Permit program was implemented. Citizens are now able to apply for a permit to allow them to park one private motor vehicle on the street for periods longer than three hours and overnight. This permit does not excuse them from the necessity of removing their vehicle from the street when it is being Ploughed in the winter. Since the termination of overnight enforcement by municipal staff there have been repeated complaints from citizens concerning vehicles parking on the streets overnight.g This has caused staff � to revisit the matter. The prohibition on on-street parking from 3:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. has been in _ existence for two years and yet compliance still remains a problem. Overnight parking enforcement is enforced by the Durham Regional Police, however they enforce all laws on a priority basis. j All the original reasons for passing the original prohibition remain valid. The streets are there for vehicular traffic and not as overflow parking lots for residents. Vehicles left on the street for prolonged periods can cause traffic problems for other vehicles. Staff are also cognizant of the fact that many of the people who receive parking tickets will complain and feel that they have been treated unfairly or that the ticket was not warranted. i i .../3 Q 1 7 Report CD-15-01 -3- March 26, 2001 Ultimately Council must decide whether or not Staff are to be authorized to work overnight and enforce the provisions of the By-law. Current staff levels do not permit for the permanent posting of one of the officers to full time night duty. Staff are prepared to have an officer work an occasional night shift in response of citizen complaints in order to enforce the 3:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. prohibition. Staff are therefore seeking Council's direction in this matter. i Respectfully mitted, Reviewed by, _ 6 Zu 1��p*al e, A .C.T. Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P.

BACKGROUND: This Report is presented for Council's information and concerns the activities of the By-law Enforcement Division since the last status report in July 2000. Staff have broken the various outstanding matters down into three groups. These represent the bulk of the ongoing matters which are being addressed by the Enforcement Division, ie.: 1. Investigations and enforcement matters, 2. By-laws and procedures to be written or updated and 3. Ongoing projects. 1. INVESTIGATIONS AND ENFORCEMENT MATTERS Table #1 lists all the investigations and enforcement matters currently outstanding. These have been arranged by violation category and file number. Due to the need to keep the files confidential, any specific reference to property ownership or location has not been included in the list. ..J2 I Report CD-16-01 -2- March 26, 2001 Council will note that the oldest remaining file dates from 1993. This involves a large industrial building, which has seen the involvement of the Building Department, the Fire Department, the Durham Regional Police and the Ministry of the Environment, as well as the C.A.O.'s office. There is currently a Building Code Order on the structure, however, given the nature and complexity of the case it will remain logged as open until I such time as it has been finally resolved. At the time of the last Report there were 195 open files. Since that time the Municipal Law Enforcement Officers have received and investigated 456 more occurrences or requests for service. The addition of a third officer has allowed staff to clear the majority of the backlog. As of 12 March 2001, there are a total of 59 open files remaining. The outstanding investigations represent: 22 Property Standards, 15 Zoning, 2 Noise, 2 Fences, 16 Parking, �. 1 Signs 1 General complaints. -- Depending entirely upon the nature of the complaint, a specific matter can require a i phone call or letter, single site visit, several months of investigation, attempts at resolution, or court procedures in order to finally resolve the matter. Certain issues have special legislated time frames. An example of this is a Property Standards complaint which is processed in the following manner: 1. The complaint is received and a site inspection conducted. 2. The property information is received from the title searcher. 3. The Order Requiring Compliance is sent out.

This will be carried out in conjunction with the Planning Department and Pubic Works. i 2• BY-LAWS AND PROCEDURES Staff are tasked with the responsibility of reviewing, commenting on and updating Municipal by-laws where required. These require time to research and draft before being presented to Council. This is an ongoing I 9 9 process, however, there are several - which must be redrafted in the near future. Staff are currently working on revisions to all of the licencing by-laws and will be introducing them as Schedules to the Municipal Licencing By-law. These include taxis, hawker-pedlars, refreshment vehicles, trailer parks and auctioneers. Several other regulatory by-laws have been amended several times over the years and have become very cumbersome and confusing, therefore streamlining of these by-laws is i III Y n progress. _ L Work has been ongoing with the Regional Police on the issue of creating by-laws to regulate pawnbrokers and second-hand goods dealers. These will assist the Police in investigations into thefts and break-and-enter offences by requiring the shopkeeper to record and file all of their transactions with the Police. Senior staff have met with the new Inspector in p charge of 16 Division to set up in-service cross training for both our staff and the Regional Police. The Officers are also currently working on drafting an enforcement policy for the Municipal Sign By-law. C _ ...15 U2 .../5 CD Report -16-01 _5_ March 26, 2001 3. ONGOING PROJECTS Staff are also involved in the ongoing work of the Durham By-law Enforcement Working Group. This group was formed to deal with common cross-border enforcement issues toward harmonizing enforcement and to work t standards and requirements across � Durham Region. Every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, at least one officer's time is fully devoted to conducting First Attendance Hearings for Parking tickets. These are booked in advance and are the required first step in the court process for parking matters. Over the last few months, Staff have attended seminars conducted by representatives of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission. The aim is to increase the Municipal Enforcement staffs involvement in the enforcement of provincial licencing provisions for Nevada ticket sales, bingos and raffles. In view of recent cases of fraud and misuse of funds within the Region, it is anticipated that Staff will be assuming these responsibilities in the near future. This will include the reviews of financial statements as well as on site inspections. A major ongoing project within the Division is the supervision of the winter sidewalk snow-clearing program. While not tracked as By-law infractions per se, snow-clearing concerns require a considerable amount of staff time. The complaints are received and r compiled for the contractor. Once the work is done, staff must verify the work and prepare the billing to the property owners based on the property frontage and the nature of the work performed. This work and the subsequent enquiries from the involved property owners can consume approximately 80% of one officer's time j= throughout the course of the winter. - S�3 Report CD-16-01 -6_ March 26, 2001 CONCLUSION: This report has been prepared for Committee's information and to provide a status on the open files in the Sy-law Division.

THAT Report CD-18-01 be received for information. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 The Clarington Animal Shelter has recently joined www.PetPostings.com, a website which provides public access to a database of pets housed in animal shelters across Ontario. The data is updated daily and maintained by shelter staff. Shelter pets are photographed and posted on the website daily which allows the user to view the current lost and adoptable pets housed in each facility. 1.2 For a fee of $6.00, the user receives two-weeks' worth of access to view photographs and descriptions of the pets housed in his/her local shelter. The search can be expanded to include neighbouring shelters for an ' additional $2.00. Half of the access fee is paid to the animal shelter -- whose database has been searched. C 1.3 Pet Postings has provided the animal shelter with a digital camera at no up-front cost to the Municipality. To cover this cost, Pet Posting will retain initial revenues generated from visits to Clarington's page. C i � I Report CD-18-01 - 2 - March 26, 2001 1.4 Particioatinn Animal Care Agencies: i i Among the 24 animal care facilities in Ontario which have joined this website are: _ Brampton Animal Shelter Peterborough Humane Society Glencoe Animal Shelter Orangeville S.P.C.A. Oshawa Animal Shelter Kitchener Waterloo Humane Society Humane Society of Durham Region Northumberland Humane Society; etc. 2. ADVANTAGES 2.1 When looking for a lost pet or to adopt a pet, our customers will now have the options of: 1. attending in person at the animal shelter; 2. telephoning the animal shelter; 3. accessing the Municipality's web site; and 4. accessing www.PetPostings.com for a small fee Pet Postings will provide pet owners with the ability to search for their pets at a place and time convenient to them as often as they like. The ability to search a number of animal shelters quickly and accurately, j= reassures pet owners that they are being as thorough as possible in their search. Pet Postings will also generate revenues to the Municipality as well as establish an on-line network of shared information and resources for Animal Shelters across North America. 2.2 In conclusion, it is Staff's opinion that this is a worthwhile endeavour which will create a "win-win" situation for all our pet owners as well as our pets.

THAT Report CD-19-01 be received; I - 2. THAT the Firearms By-law 92-91 be repealed; 3. THAT the By-law attached to Report CD-19-01 be forwarded to Council for approval; and 4. THAT Sharon Steele, Penny Engelbert and Debbie Armstrong be advised of Council's decision. BACKGROUND: In 1992 Council passed a by-law to regulate the discharge of firearms in the former Town of Newcastle now the Municipality of Clarington. By-law 92-91 regulated where firearms may be discharged, and what type of firearms may be used across the municipality. However since the implementation of By-law 92-91 some citizens have expressed safety concerns regarding the setback distances and type of firearms involved. It has become apparent that some schools, community centers, and churches are on land zoned agriculture or open spaces and therefore the discharge of firearms would be permitted within a close proximity of said areas. i If the setback of these areas is increased to three hundred meters the safety concerns of the community would be _ addressed. C At the present time a firearm may not be lawfully discharged if it is within: a) 100 metres from any portion of a parcel of land which is zoned residential land by the zoning by-law; or .../2 0 .7 i i Report CD-19-01 -Z- i i b) 50 metres from any portion of a highway if the direction of shot, bullet, bolt or arrow, would intersect or rui. parallel to aforesaid portion of the highway; or c) 300 metres from the high water mark. d) a firearm cannot be of greater calibre than .275 inches. I The safety concern is that in certain areas, high-powered rifles are being used and a 100 metre safety zone should be increased to 300 metres. Concerns have also been raised regarding the discharge of firearms around churches and community centers and that a three hundred meter no discharge zone should also be implementedL I Although the only significant proposed changes to the existing by-law are the addition of a 300 metre setback from "public centres" and the amendment of the residential setback from 100 metres to 300 metres, staff believ, for ease of understanding it is desirable to replace By-law 92-91 with a new by-law instead of passing individual amendments to the existing one. At this time, it should be noted that the concerns of citizens are not against hunting itself but where the aforementioned activity takes place, notably the area around the Newtonville School. Resolution GPA-380-98 put in place a committee to examine hunting activities in the municipality, and it should also be noted that there was some concern raised by the hunting committee themselves and file #D05.GE states that the setback distance around schools must be re-ekamined. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff respectfully recommend that By-law 92-91 be repealed and that the by-law attached to Report CD-19-01 be forwarded to Council for approval. ;ec tful ubmitted, Reviewed by, i E L. arrie, C.TFranklin Wu, M.C.I.P. ipal Cl rk Chief Administrative Officer PB*LC*bm Attachment Report CD-19-01 -3- March 26, 2001 Concerned Parties to be advised of Council decision: Sharon Steele, Penny Engelbert and Debbie Armstrong 4443 Highway 2 Newtonville, Ontario LOA HO I i - I E- i F i C - Q Z !1 i THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON i BY-LAW 2001 Being a By-law to repeal By-law 92-91,to prohibit and regulate the discharge of guns or other firearms,air-guns, spring-guns,cross-bows, long-bows in the Municipality of Clarington WHEREAS Section 210.36 of the Municipal Act R.S.O. 1990,Chapter M45 provides that for the purposes o public safety By-laws may be passed by the Council of a local municipality for the purpose of public safety for prohibiting or regulating the discharge of guns or other firearms,air-guns,spring-guns,cross-bows,long bows,or any class or type thereof, in the municipality or in any defined area thereof: AND WHEREAS The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington deems it desirable to exercise the said power to the extent hereinafter provided: i NOW THEREFORE the Council of The Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington enacts as follows: i.

BACKGROUND There are currently thirty-one parking spots in the municipal parking lot on Silver Street. The downtown merchants have raised a concern that after municipal staff arrive in the morning, there are few if any spots left for customers to use. In the past, staff have been asked to limit their use of this lot in order to preserve some spaces for the public. This has met with varying levels of success. Staff have discussed this issue with members of the Bowmanville Business Centre and have reached an agreement. The parking spaces along the north side of the parking will be set aside strictly for customer parking. This will be achieved through the placement of signs specifically designating the six spots along the F- north side for this purpose. New signs designating these spaces have been ordered and will be installed as soon as they arrive. Respectfull u tted, Reviewed by, P�ttiL.�ie,�A. .C:T. Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P.
