THAT Report PD-045-01 be received; and I 2. THAT Council reconfirm its commitment to the establishment of a conservation area for the Bowmanville Westside Marshes, including the lands immediately west of West Beach Road, and to the Management Plan Terms of Reference. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 On April 17, 2001, Council passed the following resolution: j "WHEREAS as the March 5, 2001 General Purpose and Administration meeting, Council passed a resolution approving in principle in developing of a major outdoor park facility; i WHEREAS an appropriate parcel of approximately 22 acres is available west of West Beach Road; AND WHEREAS the sports park could be developed in the former cornfield, not affecting the present woodlot or the proposed re-routing of the creek, and still leave a link between the marshlands; THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT staff investigate the feasibility of locating the park facility at this location." The resolution stemmed from a report, WD-09-01 regarding g g concerns over the lack of outdoor active park facilities, specifically baseball diamonds and associated support i REPORT PD-045-00 PAGE 2 facilities. Public Works recommended that Council approve in principle, to developing a major outdoor park facility. The report anticipated that one of the future community parks would be expanded to incorporate these facilities creating a major community/district park. Council approved this recommendation. i 1.2 Subsequent to Council's resolution of April 17, 2001 Planning Staff received a number of inquiries from residents of the Port Darlington community concerned about Council's interest in the lands west of West Beach Road for an outdoor park facility (see Attachment 1). On April 27, 2001 the Mayor and Planning Staff met with area residents and they expressed three concerns: • Council is not honoring its commitments under the Principles of Understanding to save a portion of the Westside Marsh and create new habitat and habitat linkages in the reconfigured Westside Marsh, the Bowmanville Marsh and the lands that link them (the subject lands); • Members of the community felt that Council had already made a decision to build a major park at this location and felt that assisting the Municipality and the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority in preparing a Management Plan for the marshes was futile; and i • That lights and noise generated by the park would interfere with the enjoyment of their property and decrease their quality of life. I 1.3 This report will not address the merits of this site for a sports park facility for baseball. Due to previous commitments and binding agreements identified below, a sports park facility is not feasible on these lands. The Public Works Department is addressing the locational needs of a new sports park facility by a separate report. I 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Principles of Understanding with Blue Circle Canada Inc. In November 1997 the Municipality of Clarington and Blue Circle Canada entered into the Principles of Understanding, an agreement that implements the recommendations of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust for saving a portion the Westside Marsh. After years of consultation with federal and provincial agencies and the general public the Waterfront Regeneration Trust recommended that the southern portion of the Westside Marsh be 611 REPORT PD-045-00 PAGE 3 retained, enhanced and augmented with additional habitat on site, or on adjacent lands, which included the Bowmanville Marsh and the lands in between the marshes, referred to as the Link Lands. Joining the two marshes and the lands in between provides a corridor for wildlife, birds and amphibians to migrate between the marshes. Retaining these lands as a corridor is a key element in the overall compensation package recommended by the Waterfront Regeneration Trust and agreed to by the Municipality and Blue Circle. 2.2 Open Space Lands Transferred to CLOC Blue Circle was required to convey the remnant Westside Marsh Link Lands, a portion of the Bowmanville Marsh and some lands in the Bowmanville Creek valley lands to the Municipality, creating 110 acres of public open space. The Municipality, in turn conveyed these lands to CLOC to manage. The transfer of land occurred in the fall of 2000. The Municipality p y no longer owns the lands referred to in Council's resolution. 2.3 Management Agreement C Under the Principles of Understanding, the Municipality and CLOC were required to enter into an agreement for managing the newly created public open space. The Management - Agreement was executed in Spring 2000 and is binding on the Municipality. The agreement requires among other things, the preparation of a Management Plan, which F would provide direction of the restoration and preservation of the natural heritage features tures and recommend the appropriate level of public access. Both the Municipality and Blue Circle contributed money, $100,000.00 and $94,000.00 respectively, towards the preparation of the plan and seed money for initial projects. j 2.4 Management Plan Process is Underway r In January 2001, Council approved the Terms of Reference and authorized Staff to prepare a Management Plan. The study relies on public's participation to create a vision of the area. Some area residents feel Council has already made a decision to create a sports park in this location and therefore felt that participating in the Management Plan process was 612 REPORT PD-045-00 PAGE 4 i futile. It is important to reconfirm Council's earlier commitment so that the study can proceed with the trust of the participants. 3. CONCLUSIONS i 3.1 Given Council's obligations under the Principles of Understanding, the transfer of the lands to CLOC, the Management Agreement, and Council's previous initiation of a study of these lands as a conservation area, these lands should not be considered for a major outdoor sports facility. It is recommended that Council reconfirm its commitment to the study process previously initiated in light of the April 17, 2001 resolution. The Public Works Department will be reviewing a number of possible locations for a major outdoor park facility and will be bring them forward by a separate report. _ Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, JaJ. ome, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.

THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. 1. APPLICATION 1.1 Applicant: Legends Consulting on behalf of St. Stephens Estates 1.2 Rezoning: � g: Removal of Holding (H)„ symbol from "Holding-Urban i Residential Type Two ((H)R2)” to "Urban Residential Type Two (R2)" i REPORT NO.: PD-046-01 PAGE 2 i 1.3 Location: Part Lot 8, Concession 2, former Town of Bowmanville (Attachment 1). 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 Removal of Part Lot Control ! i 2.1.1 On February 28, 2001, Staff received a request from Legends Consulting on behalf of St. Stephens Estates for the removal of Part Lot Control in respect to Blocks 133 and 134 of Plan 40M-1997 (see Attachment 3). I 2.1.2 Blocks 133 and 134 received draft approval for five (5) single detached dwelling units. The removal of Part Lot Control would facilitate the construction of single detached dwelling units on these blocks. The process will enable the blocks to be divided and resurveyed after the dwelling foundations are in place. The blocks are in a registered plan of subdivision; therefore, there is an existing agreement in place to cover the Municipality's financial interest, including g p yment of parkland dedication and development charges. f- 2.2 Removal of Holding(H) Svmbol g 2.2.1 On April 30, 2001, Staff received a request from Le g ends Consultin for the removal of the "Holding (H)" provision from Blocks 133 and 134 in Plan 40M-1997. Attachment 1 I shows the location of the lots zoned "Holding-Urban Residential Type Two ((H)R2)". 3. STAFF COMMENTS 3.1 Removal of Part Lot Control 3.1.1 Staff has no objection to the approval of a By-law exempting the subject lands from Part Lot Control. Attached is a By-law to exempt the subject lands from Section 50(5) of the Planning Act pursuant to the provisions of Section 50 (7) of the Planning Act. The Part Lot Control by-law requires the approval of Council and the Regional Municipality of Durham. It is recommended that the Part Lot Control By-law be in force for a three (3) year period ending May 14, 2004. I i 616 REPORT NO.: PD-046-01 PAGE 3 3.2 Removal of Holding 3.2.1 The subject property is presently zoned "Holding-Urban Residential Type Two ((H)R2)". The provisions of the Zoning By-law allow for the removal of the "Holding (H)" symbol, by By-law, upon Council being satisfied that the uses to be permitted will be adequately serviced, have appropriate access, and will be used for the purposes intended by the By- law. 3.2.2 Block 133 was approved as a block for use as a Temporary Storm Water Management Facility. This facility is no longer required. Block 134 was registered as a block due to concerns regarding g g grading from the Clarington Public Works Department and Central Lake Ontario Conservation. Discussion has indicated that the grading concerns will soon be resolved. The applicant is required to provide additional engineering information, modify the engineering drawings for the subdivision, complete additional engineering work prior to the issuance of building permits, prepare a Lot Grading and Drainage Plan for these blocks, make application for property access and provide a total of five street trees. The applicant requires that the holding symbol be removed so the works may take place. Permits will be required for the works to be done from the Clarington Public Works Department and Central Lake Ontario Conservation. The existing subdivision agreement is applicable for all phases of development and does not require amendment or modifications. 4. RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 It is recommended that Council approve the attached by-laws to provide for the removal of the removal of the "Holding (H)" symbol (Attachment 2) and the removal of Part Lot Control (Attachment 4). 617 i REPORT NO.: PD-046-01 PAGE 4 I i Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, f 4vi . me, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.

THAT Report PD-047-01 be received; 2. That Council authorize Staff to appeal the decision of the Committee of Adjustment with E- respect to Application A2001/020; and i 3. THAT Council concur with decisions of the Committee of Adjustment made on April 26, 2001 for applications A2001/021 to A2001/025 inclusive, and that Staff be authorized to appear before the Ontario Municipal Board to defend the decisions of the Committee of Adjustment. 1. All applications received by the Municipality for minor variance are scheduled to be heard within 30 days of being received by the Secretary-Treasurer. The purpose of the minor variance applications and the Committee's decisions are detailed in Attachment No. 1. The decisions of the Committee are listed below. DECISIONS OF THE COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT FOR APRIL 26, 2001 Application Number Staff Recommendation Decision of Committee A2001/020 A rove side and variance pp Y Approved with modifications Deny rear yard variance A2001/021 Approve Approved A2001/022 Approve Approved i �i7Q i REPORT PD-047-01 PAGE 2 A2001/023 Approve Approved A2001/024 Table Tabled j A2001/025 Approve Approved 2. Application A2001/020 was for a reduction in side yard setback from 1.2 metres to 1.0 metre. This portion of the application was approved as applied for. (See Attachment 2). The application was also requesting a reduction in the rear yard setback for an unenclosed deck from 2.6 metres to 1.0 metre to construct a deck with a depth of 3.66 metres (12 ft). This portion of the application did not receive endorsement from either Public Works or the Planning Department. The Waterfront Trail immediately abuts the rear property line of this lot, which will have a 1.8 metre chain link fence along the property line. The proposed deck would be approximately 2.13 metres above grade and 1 metre from this fence. Staff felt there would be a conflict between the residential use and the public use with the proposed setback. When this subdivision was originally approved a site specific zone was applied (R2-10) ! changing the traditional rear yard depth from 7.5 metres to 5 metres and the setback for an unenclosed deck from 6 metres to 2.6 metres. This would allow homeowners to construct an 8 ft (2.4 metre) deep deck and still meet the required 2.6 metre setback. Committee felt a compromise might satisfy both the applicant and the Municipality and approved a rear yard setback of 1.9 metres that would permit a deck of 3.048 metres (10 ft). 3. Having regard for the shallow lot, the height of the proposed deck, the lack of privacy and the potential for conflict with the use of the Waterfront Trail Staff recommend that Application A2001/020 be appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board. 4. Staff has reviewed the remainder of Committee's decisions and is satisfied that 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 i 625 REPORT PD-047-01 PAGE 3 i with the Committee of Adjustment decisions is required in order 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.

APPLICATION DETAILS f 1.1 Applicant: Clamew Developments Incorporated 1.2 Location: Part Lots 26 & 27, Concession 1, former Village of Newcastle (Attachment No. 1) I 634 REPORT PD-048-01 PAGE 2 2. BACKGROUND i2.1 On April 6, 2001, Staff received a request from D.G. Biddle & Associates Limited on behalf of Clarnew Developments Inc. for the removal of Part Lot Control in respect to Lots 3-15, 51-53, 103-107, 110-113, 123-128, 130-133, Block 139 and Lots 70-72, inclusive (see Attachment No. 2). 2.2 Draft Plan of Subdivision 18T-86013, of which Phase 2 has been registered as 40M-2038, received draft approval for twenty-two (22) lots for forty-four(44) semi-detached dwelling units. The removal of Part Lot Control would facilitate the construction of semi-detached dwelling units on each of the lots (Lots 13-15, 51-53, 103-107, 110-113, 123-128, 130- 133, inclusive). The process will enable the lots to be divided and resurveyed after the dwelling foundations are in place. The lots are in a registered plan of subdivision; therefore, there is an existing agreement in place to cover the Municipality's financial interest, including payment of parkland dedication and development charges. 2.3 The applicant has also requested that Part Lot Control be removed from Block 139 to facilitate its addition to lots being created through the Land Division process on the northerly abutting parcel. 2.4 The applicant additional) has requested Y q that lots 70-72 inclusive also require removal from Part Lot Control to afford a lot line adjustment. The applicant intends to merge Lots 70 and 71 and increase the frontage and area of Lot 72 by 0.lm and 3.5 m2, respectfully. At staff's request, the applicant provided a streetscape elevation showing the appearance the adjustment in lot lines would create. The streetscape met with Planning Staff's approval. The overall density of the subdivision will not be affected by the reduction of one dwelling. Based on the above, staff has no objection to the lot line adjustment. I 3. STAFF COMMENTS 3.1 Staff has no objection to the approval of a By-law exempting the subject lands from Part Lot Control. Attached is a By-law to exempt the subject lands from Section 50(5) of the Planning Act pursuant to the provisions of Section 50(7) of the Planning Act (see I 635 i i REPORT PD-048-01 PAGE 3 Attachment No. 3). The Part Lot Control By-law requires the approval of Council and the Regional Municipality of Durham. I 4• RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 In accordance with Subsection 7.3 of Section 50 of the Planning Act, the By-law may provide a specified timeframe during which the By-law shall be in force. As a result, it is not necessary for Staff to prepare a second By-law to restore Part Lot Control on the subject lands. The Planning Act leaves it to the Municipality to determine an appropriate L timeframe during which the By-law shall apply. Staff recommend that the By-law be in force for a three (3) year period following Council approval, ending May 14, 2004. Respectful) submitted, Reviewed by, Dav d J C me, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.

PARKING CONCERNS Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to Council the following: 1. THAT Report WD-18-01 be received; 2. THAT prohibited parking on Centre Street from Church Street to the easterly limit of Centre I Street be switched from the south side to the north side to gain five additional parking spaces; 3. THAT prohibited parking on Church Street from Centre Street to the south limit of Church Street be switched from the east side to the west side to gain 3 additional parking spaces; and I ' 4. THAT the by-law attached to Report WD-18-01 be approved by Council. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Parking map No. 2: Parking supply/demand studies (four pages) No. 3: Proposed by-law 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 The Orono B.I.A. requested that the Public Works Department review the existing I parking demands and review ways to increase the parking supply. I 645 i REPORT NO.: WD-18-01 PAGE 2 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT i 3.1 Existing Supply and Demand Parking studies were conducted by Public Works on the following days: i I Tuesday, August 29, 2000 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday,December 18, 2000 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Friday, January 26, 2001 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, January 27, 2001 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. These parking studies covering various months and different days of the week did not indicate a parking shortage. For the purposes of the study, only on-street parking was considered, with additional parking on private property not being included. As shown on the attached study results, there was an average of 16 to 23 parking spaces (30-40%) available to customers parking in the downtown area. 3.2 Use of Existing Parking Supply Long-Term Parking: �- After conducting the parking studies, Public Works made B.I.A. representatives aware that parking in excess of the three-hour parking limit by residents,merchants and employees was evident. This practice is eliminating a number of prime customer parking spaces. The enforcement levels are currently being reviewed by the Clerks Department. The B.I.A. representatives were reminded that its members and their employees should park on private property or on distant side streets,not in the prime downtown customer arkin P g areas. Accessibility: At the request of the B.I.A., the parking stalls on the east side of Main Street will be adjusted and painted to provide more defined and easier access to the three stairways. Parking supply will be increased by one space as a result of the changes to the parking stall sizes. i I 646 REPORT NO.: WD-18-01 PAGE 3 Metered Parking: Parking meters are used to increase parking turnover and reduce abuse of the time limits. j Meters can also be used to generate revenue for the purchase of land for future off-street parking lots. Parking meters are not being recommended for Orono at this time due to the j adequate existing parking supply. 3.3 Expansion of Existing Parking Supply The lack of available land and the low to moderate customer parking demand precludes the creation of an off-street parking lot in the downtown core at this time. Instead, the on-street parking supply can be increased on two separate streets by shifting parking from one side to the other if it has fewer driveways or fire hydrants. Parking on Church Street, south of Centre Street, is currently permitted on the west side and supports 6 parking spaces. If the parking is moved to the east side, it would support 9 parking spaces due to fewer driveway entrances. Parking on Centre Street, east of Church Street, is currently on the north side and supports 20 parking spaces. If the parking is moved to the south side, it would support 25 parking spaces due to fewer driveways and the placement of fire hydrants. Although not considered prime parking for downtown customers, it would provide additional parking for other users. Parking on Park Street, east of Church, is currently on the south side and supports 15 I - parking spaces while the north side only supports 13 spaces. The existing by-law does not need to be changed but a number of missing no parking signs will be installed. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 The on-street customer parking supply in Orono can be increased with a number of changes to the"No Parking"schedules of Traffic By-law 91-58 and a review of parking enforcement levels. 647 i REPORT NO.: WD-18-01 PAGE 4 Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, Stephen A.

THAT Report WD-19-01 be received; 1 2. THAT the request for an all-way stop at Apple Blossom Boulevard and Tilley Road be denied; 3. THAT the request for an all-way stop at Apple Blossom Boulevard and Tucker Road be I denied; 1= , 4. THAT the request for speed bumps on Apple Blossom Boulevard be denied; I 5. THAT a parking prohibition be approved on the southeast side of Apple Blossom Boulevard between Tucker Road and Mann Street; and 6. THAT the proposed by-law attached to Report WD-19-01 be forwarded to Council for approval. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Key Map No. 2: Correspondence from Sandy Lunney-McDonald dated March 25, 2001 655 i REPORT NO.: WD-19-01 PAGE 2 No. 3: Correspondence from Andrew Macfarlane dated March 23, 2001 No. 4: Proposed by-law I 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 At a meeting held on April 2, 2001, the Council of the Municipality of Clarington referred correspondence from Sandy Lunney-McDonald regarding traffic concerns on Apple Blossom Boulevard to the Director of Public Works. Andrew Macfarlane forwarded an e-mail request to the Director of Public Works regarding traffic concerns on Apple Blossom Boulevard. Yanick Pelletier placed a phone call on April 10, 2001 to the Public Works Department expressing traffic concerns on Apple Blossom Boulevard. i 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 Traffic Volume: Apple Blossom Boulevard is classed as a collector road designed to serve the surrounding residential development. This street was observed on April 5`h and April 9`h, 2001 during the a.m. peak hour between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., while children were present. This -= street was also observed on April 10`h from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. to catch the school dismissal period and p.m. peak hour. The traffic volumes were considered low for a collector type of roadway. Due to the layout of the existing road network, there is a low possibility that a"cut through" traffic problem would present itself. 3.2 Traffic Speed: Staff used a radar gun to measure the speeds of vehicles at two points along Apple Blossom Boulevard with the following results. i LOCATION DATE TIME AVERAGE SPEED Tucker Road April 5 8-9 a.m. 47.59 km/hr Mann Street April 9 8-9 a.m. 50.00 km/hr Mann Street April 10 3.4 p.m. 49.96 km/hr Mann Street April 10 4-5 p.m. 50.78 km/hr - 656 REPORT NO.: WD-19-01 PAGE 3 Average speeds do not appear to be a problem and are lower than most collector roadways, possibly due to the number of curves in the roadway. A wide speed range was observed, with some vehicles traveling at 40 km/hr, and others at 60 km/hr. This speed differential, combined with the curves in the road, creates a perception that some vehicles are traveling at excessive speeds. The top speed recorded over the study periods was a westbound vehicle at Mann Street traveling at 71 km/hr. 3.3 All-Wav Stops When reviewing all-way stop requests, staff base their recommendations on warrants prepared by the Province of Ontario. As Tilley Road is a short dead end street, it was I decided that an all-way stop study would best be considered at the offset intersection with Mann Street to the south and Maconnachie Place to the north. Another study was done at the intersection of Tucker Road. An all-way stop is intended as a right of way control to reduce conflicts and is not intended as a speed control device. There have been no motor vehicle collisions at the intersections on Apple Blossom Boulevard. LOCATION DATE TIME INTERSECTION WARRANT VOLUME VOLUME REQUIRED I Tucker Road April 5 8-9 a.m. 113 500 Mann Street April 9 8-9 a.m. 95 500 Mann Street April 10 3-4 p.m. 113 500 Mann Street April 10 4-5 p.m. 126 500 3.4 Traffic Calming: i The request for speed humps is becoming more frequent by residents as an alternate to unnecessary all-way stops. The Municipality of Clarington established a Traffic Management Advisory Committee during 2000, which is comprised of residents, municipal staff and the Durham Regional Police, to review such requests. The committee is reviewing the effectiveness of these devices in other communities and has not made recommendations for speed hump test sites at any location within Clarington. If or when the committee does support or recommend speed humps, the locations should be prioritized based on the severity of speed violations and the risk to pedestrians. School 657 REPORT NO.: WD-19-01 PAGE 4 zones and park areas where pedestrian activity is concentrated may take first priority. There does not appear to be a quantified problem on Apple Blossom Boulevard to justify such expenditure at this time. The request will be kept on file with the location being monitored again in the future. Discussions took place at the Traffic Management Advisory Committee meeting of April 19`h, 2001 regarding this report. The committee is aware of the speed study results and staff's recommendation to deny requests for all-way stops along Apple Blossom Boulevard. 3.5 Speed Control Alternatives: Residents may contact Durham Regional Police to request periodic radar enforcement. Residents may take advantage of the Road Watch program by recording the licence plate - numbers and completing the proper form to report anyone they think is a dangerous driver. Residents may also borrow the municipal radar message board to record actual i speeds and the licence plate numbers through the Road Watch program. The radar message board also serves as an educational tool to local residents to watch their speeds. i One concern expressed was regarding school children crossing the street to catch the school bus. This is a regular occurrence on all collector roadways where students may be required to stay on one side of the street until the school bus arrives and activates the flashing lights and stop arm. i 3.6 Visibilitv: Due to the curve on Apple Blossom Boulevard between Tucker Road and Mann Street, parked vehicles could cause a sight obstruction for motorists exiting Tucker Road or Mann Street as well as residents exiting driveways between those two intersections. Although parking on this section of roadway was not observed during the study period, it i may occur during use of Elephant Hill Park on Maconnachie Place. The elimination of parking on the southeast side between the two intersections should not adversely affect residents or park users. i 658 REPORT NO.: WD-19-01 PAGE 5 I 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 Traffic studies conducted on Apple Blossom Boulevard do not support the introduction of I unwarranted all-way stops or speed humps. 4.2 The introduction of a parking prohibition on the southeast side of Apple Blossom Boulevard between Tucker Road and Mann Street would ensure that visibility is not restricted by parked vehicles.

I have a concern about the 3 way intersection at Tucker and AppleBlossom Rd. Currently there is a stop sign at Tucker but none on AppleBlossom. AppleBlossom curves as it goes north of Tucker and although the posted limit is 50km/h it is not uncommon for vehicles to travel much faster. I, along with many neighbours, find it dangerous to exit Tucker as fast approaching southbound cars are very hard to spot. Also, and of greater concern, is the danger the school kids have in crossing AppleBlossom for the school buses. Children move at a slower pace and the results could be catastrophic if a car approaches too quickly. I respectfully request your department consider installing stop signs for north and southbound traffic on AppleBlossom. I realize this road is the major avenue into the area and efficient traffic flow is desired but safety must come first. A stop here would result in an extra 5-7 seconds only so surely folks could live with that. I appreciate your efforts in this matter and look forward to hearing your thoughts.

THAT Report WD-21-01 be received; 2. THAT disabled parking spaces at the 2379 Clarin ton Mall g ( Highway 2, 2387 Highway 2 and 90 Clarington Boulevard, Bowmanville) be included in Traffic By-law 91-58 Schedule XXX"OFF-STREET PARKING FOR DISABLED PERSONS"as requested by the owner, Valiant Property Management; and 3. THAT the proposed by-law attached to Report WD-21-01 be forwarded to Council for approval. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Correspondence dated March 9,2001 from Valiant Property Management No. 2: Proposed by-law amendment to replace Schedule XXX of By-law 91-58 i 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 At a meeting held on April 2, 2001 Council referred correspondence dated March 9, 2001 to the Public Works Department and the By-law Enforcement Division for preparation of a report to the General Purpose and Administration Committee. In the correspondence, i 665 i I REPORT NO.: WD-21-01 PAGE 2 Valiant Property Management, owner of the Clarington Mall (Bowmanville), has requested the inclusion of the disabled parking spaces provided in accordance with the approved Site Plan Agreement on the properties located at 2379 Highway 2, 2387 Highway 2 and 90 Clarington Boulevard within the Municipal Traffic By-law to permit full legal enforcement of the designated spaces. 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 The property owner, Valiant Property Management, is concerned about regular abuse of disabled parking spaces by customers without the provincially a pp roved permit. Currently, -- private property owners who request enforcement of disabled parking spaces must be present to sign the"Certificate Of Parking Infraction"and the violators will only be charged with"parking on private property without owners consent". This carries a set fine of$23.00 and an early payment fine of $15.00. By adding specific private property addresses to Traffic By-law 91-58 Schedule XXX "Off Street Parking For Disabled Persons", the property owner does not need to be present and violators will be charged with the higher set fine of$300.00 and early payment of$200.00. Valiant Property Management anticipates that the increased fine and flexibility for Municipal staff to provide regular parking enforcement without requiring the presence and authorizing signature of the owner each time will curb abuse. 3.2 At a site meeting April 11, 2001, staff from Public Works and By-law y law Enforcement met with Nancy Keenan of Valiant Property Management to review the sign locations, as specified in the Site Plan Agreement. The owner, who was provided with a copy of the signing requirements, was advised that the by-law can not be enforced unless the Provincially approved disabled parking sign is in place for each stall. Blue pavement marking is often used as an added visual feature but is not legally enforceable by itself without the proper sign being posted. The property is known as Clarington Mall and includes 2379 Highway 2 "strip mall and Zellers", 2387 Highway 2 "McDonalds" and 90 Clarington Boulevard"Kelseys". I I REPORT NO.: WD-21-01 PAGE 3 3.3 As new site plans are approved with designated disabled parking, the property owner will be i asked by the By-law Enforcement Division to confirm in writing that they wish to permit proper enforcement by being added to the Traffic By-law schedule. Existing property owners will need to contact the By-law Enforcement Division in writing to request enforcement and inclusion in the by-law Schedule. In some cases, this will involve a site plan amendment by the owner to designate disabled spaces. If the property owner and By- law Enforcement Division are satisfied with the request, an amendment to the Municipal Traffic By-law will be prepared by the Public Works Department and presented to Council for approval. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 That Council be provided with a proposed by-law amendment to Traffic By-law 91-58, Schedule x:XX, "Off Street Parking For Disabled Persons" to include the disabled parking - spaces at the Clarington Mall as requested by the property owner.

For the 2000 municipal election, the deadline for filing these documents was April 2, 2001. Failure to do so results in the following penalties: 1 any office to which the candidate was elected will be forfeited and the-office shall be deemed to be vacant 2. until the next regular election has taken place, the candidate is ineligible to be elected or appointed to any office to which the Municipal Elections Act, 1996 applies.

THAT Addendum to Report TR-22-01 be received; and 2. THAT Report TR-22-01 be lifted from the table and the recommendations in Report TR-22- 01 be approved,FORTHWITH. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Key Map -Proposed Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewer Improvements No. 2: Report TR-22-01 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 At the April 30, 2001 Council meeting, the following resolution was passed: "THAT Report TR-22-01 be tabled and leave be granted for the Director of Public Works to report back to Council on the repercussions of not completing the subject work at this time, the costs related to the delaying of REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM TO REPORT TR-22-01 PAGE 2 the tender award and the possibility of future expansion of the parking lot at the Clarington Beech Centre." 2.2 Hydro Conversion On April 30, 2001 Council requested additional information regarding costs related to converting overhead hydro to an underground system if the conversion were to be completed after the reconstruction of Centre Street. Based on information provided by Veridian, and estimates prepared by TSH, the following net additional costs have been identified: • Additional Directional Boring Costs - $32,800 • Sidewalk Restoration - $4,500 • Restoration Related to House Service Trenches - $9,800 $47,100 2.3 The original estimate for the hydro conversion was$270,000. It was calculated based on the following assumptions: • Estimate assumes work is coordinated with the reconstruction of Centre Street; • Includes 34 house services, 11 street lights and poles, 4 pad mount transformers, 7 concrete encased road crossings; • Based on 50%directional bored and 50%open trench installation; • House services torpedoed from main trench; • Minor restoration works (assumes full restoration under Centre Street works); and • Excludes cormection charges at the individual homes (i.e. "stack" removal and associated repair) estimated at$600 per house. 2.4 Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewer Works Provisional works included in Contract CL2001-11 for Lowe Street and Beech Avenue are shown on Attachment No. 1. They include storm sewers, associated appurtenances and REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM TO REPORT TR-22-01 PAGE 3 trench restoration. Bill Humber, in his delegation on behalf of the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association,requested the removal of this provisional item. The reasons for the inclusion of the Beech Avenue and Lowe Street storm sewers were to: • Correct a storm sewer deficiency on Lowe Street and avoid the unnecessary installation of a temporary manhole on Lowe Street; • Allow the Municipality some flexibility in its dealings with the Clarington Beech Centre parking and drainage issues. The proposed storm sewer works on Beech Avenue provide a potential outlet for any drainage works that may be required at the Clarington Beech Centre. The works are not solely for the purpose of providing an outlet for the Clarington Beech Centre as they will also be required to provide a drainage outlet for the future improvements on Beech Avenue and Lowe Street, scheduled for 2003; and • Realize the financial benefit of having the works included in a large contract. Should the works be constructed independently, or as part of a smaller contract for the Clarington Beech Centre, it is estimated that the costs could be increased by up to 25% ($10,000-$12,000). Should the provisional Beech Avenue storm sewer works not be approved,the works would then terminate in the south boulevard of Lowe Street, opposite Beech Avenue, and result in a reduction of$34,322.59 from the total tender amount. 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 By delaying the approval of Tender CL2001-11, the Municipality has exceeded the 30 day period in which the Tender is open for acceptance. The Tender now may only be accepted with the consent of the successful Bidder. To date, Ron Robinson Limited has expressed their willingness to accept the award of the contract. REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM TO REPORT TR-22-01 PAGE 4 3.2 Should the contract be deferred to the point where it would have to be re-tendered, the Municipality would incur additional tendering costs of approximately$5,000. I 3.3 An additional cost to the Municipality, which cannot be quantified but would have a long- term impact, is the cost of jeopardizing the Municipality of Clarington's credibility with the construction industry. This may result in less competition during the tendering process and/or higher overall pricing to compensate for the uncertainty associated with bidding in the Municipality of Clarington. 3.4 Historically, prices are lower for projects tendered early in the construction season and increase for projects tendered later in the year. If the hydro issue is not resolved until later this year, or sometime next year, and the Municipality decides to delay tendering until this time, it runs the risk of higher seasonal pricing. 3.5 It should be noted that it was the Region of Durham's need to replace deficient watermain and sanitary sewer on Centre Street that initiated the full reconstruction of the street. Should Contract CL2001-11 not be awarded,there is the possibility that the Region of Durham may proceed to tender their required improvements on Centre Street independent of the Municipality's road works. This would result in inconvenience to residents because two major reconstruction projects would take place on Centre Street. By installing the Region's services separately, this would still require Clarington's installation of storm sewers, curb, sidewalks and the remainder of the road, which is exactly what all stakeholders wanted to avoid. If the Region's and the Municipality's works were tendered as two independent projects, additional costs would be incurred. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 The delay or cancellation of a municipal reconstruction project reduces staff's ability to effectively plan the Municipality's Capital Works program. 4.2 The Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association has said that they would not like the work on Centre Street to proceed unless it is done in conjunction with the overhead hydro REPORT NO.. ADDENDUM TO REPORT TR-22-01 PAGE 5 conversion on Centre Street. Since the underground wires will not be undertaken at this time, and directional boring will allow retroactive installation, it would be prudent to proceed with the tendered reconstruction at this time.

THAT the additional funds required for Centre Street and Grant Lane, Reconstruction, in the amount of$37,000.00 be re-allocated from Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewers Account#7205-01005-0261; and 7. THAT the attachf:d By-law marked Schedule "A" authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to execute the agreement be approved. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT Tender specifications were provided by Totten Sims Hubicki Associates for the Centre Street and Grant Lane Reconstruction / Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewers, Bowmanville, as required by the Department of Public Works. ATTACHMENT NO.: 2 ADDENDUM TO REPORT NO.: TR-22-01 I REPORT NO.: TR-22-01 PAGE 2 Tenders were advertised in the local papers, as well as the Daily Commercial News. i Subsequently, tenders were received and tabulated as per Schedule "B" attached. The Municipality of Clarington's portion of the total project cost, including Project Administration, as detailed in the letter from Totten Sims Hubicki Associates, marked Schedule C is estimated at $495,000.00. Included in the total tendered price is work to be completed on behalf of the Region of Durham for which they will be invoiced separately. Funds in the amount of $265,000.00 required for the Centre Street and Grant Lane Reconstruction will be drawn from the 2001 Public Works Capital Budget Account#7205- 00005-0261, as identified on page 124, with $130,000.00 being provided from the Public Works 2000 Capital Budget carry over for the project. Funds in the amount of $63,000.00 required for the Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewers will be drawn from the Public Works Account #7205-01005-0261 as reflected on page 126 of the 2001 Capital Budget. As the amount is below the $100,000.00 allocated, it is recommended that the remaining funds of $37,000.00 be re- allocated to Centre Street and Grant Lane Reconstruction. Public Works have obtained a cost estimated of $75,000.00 for placing duct work to accommodate a possible future underground hydro supply. Recognizing that Public Works and Treasury Staff are not recommending that conversion to underground services be undertaken, the $75,000.00 for placement of duct work is not incluoed in the amount of this contract. Although the duct work is not presently included, it has been identified in the tender such that the work can be incurred in the later project stages if Veridian deems that the early placement of these ducts would be beneficial toward the future conversion of the existing overhead hydro distribution system to an underground system. The cost breakdown *and overrun is addressed in the attached letter from Totten Sims Hubicki Associates. i REPORT NO.: TR-22-01 PAGE 3 The low bidder has previously performed satisfactorily for the Municipality of Clarington in recent years. The Treasurer has reviewed the funding requirements and concurs with the recommendation. Queries with respect to department needs, specifications, etc., should be referred to the Director of Public Works. After further review and analysis of the bids by Public Works, Totten Sims Hubicki Associates and Purchasing, it was mutually agreed that the low bidder, Ron Robinson Limited, Bowmanviile, Ontario, be recommended for the contract for the Centre Street, and Grant Lane Reconstruction and Low Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewers, Bowmanville.

Ron Robinson Limited reconstructed Trulls Road for the Municipality of Clarington in 1995. They performed to an acceptable standard. In 2000 they completed a number of contracts for the Region of Durham and private developers. These projects were similar in nature to the subject contract and references contacted indicated their performance was acceptable. We, therefore, recommend acceptance of the low bid on this Contract. N. A cost apportionment is attached which summarizes estimated project costs based on the low bid. im Overall the project is on budget. The Centre Street and Grant Lane portion of the project is est ated e funded by the tax levy, budget to be approximately $37,000 over budget while the Lowe Street and Beech Avenue Storm Sewer section is $37,000 under budget. As both project components are to b should be transferred between the two accounts to account for the revised project allocation. Municipaiity of Clarington Schedule "C" April 19, 2001 2 In addition to the above noted project components we have also included in the cost apportionment estimated costs for placing duct work to accommodate a possible future underground hydro supply. These works estimated at $75,000 were not included in'the original project budget but may be incurred if Veridian deems that the early placement of these ducts would be beneficial toward the future conversion of the existing overhead hydro distribution system to an underground system. Deposit cheques may be returned to all contractors except the low and second low bidders. Should you require any further information, please contact the undersigned.

Ever since we moved in the neighbourhood we have noticed that frequent speeding by reckless drivers could potentially create a safety problem for pedestrians, mostly children, walking on and playing alongside the Blvd. Although most drivers using AB Blvd respect the speed limit, too many motorists grossely disregard the 50Km/Hr limit. l realize that AppleBlossom is a Boulevard and that as such some people would argue that it should benefit from a higher speed limit. But the concentration of young kids living right on the boulevard makes the higher speed limit a tragedy waiting to happen. Here are some quick statistics I have gathered based on the houses around and across my property, all located directly on AppleBlossom Blvd. Between street addresses 10 and 30 on the west side of AB(11 houses) and including the 2 houses on the East side, l can count 21 children under the age of 6. That is 21 kids, 6 and younger, for 13 houses. I didn't obtain the statistics for the entire boulevard, but from my observations during frequent outings in the neighbourhood, I would estimate that the concentration of kids for the rest of the boulevard is the same if not higher than the 13 house sample above. These children must walk to John M. James Primary school(located on Mearns at the East end of AB Blvd) and those living on the west side of AB Blvd must cross this busy street to go to the closest park, the Glanville Parkette. All you need is one of those kids to meet with one of those frequent speedy drivers and you have a lot of people regretting an accident that could have been prevented. 1 don't know how speed limits are determined, but in my judgment and in the judgment of my neighbours who signed the petition, that speed limit is excessive, and at best, lacks the physical means to be enforced (speed reduction bumps and/or stop signs). 1 find it illogical that a populous street like AB Blvd would have the same Speed limit, than for example: Liberty North, Bloor St, (parralel to Highway 401) or Concession which are all relatively major access roads. 1 have read that the provinces of Quebec and Alberta have conducted studies that concluded that a 10 to 20 Km/hr reduction of speed in the residential neighberhoods had a significant impact on reducing the amount of accidents involving cars and pedestrians. ONE speeding car on AB Blvd is ONE car too many. For the reasons mentioned above, I would respectfully suggest a reduction of speed on AB Blvd coupled with the solutions to efficiently have that speed limit enforced (i.e. Speed reduction bumps and/or stop signs at regular intervals). Once again, you need only ONE speeding car to kill a child crossing a street. I trust that whether you agree or disagree with our judgment and our suggestions with regard to this matter, you will do what is right for the safety of our kids. Please remember that ggy proactive measures in cases like this is better than no action at all. Above all, if you decide not to take action now, my only wish for the members of your committee and for the elected officials of this municipality is that we never face a situation where someone has to say: "we were told about it and we should have fixed that problem before the accident happened." Thank you very much for your time i We believe that a speeding problem exists on AppleBlossom Blvd. Speeding on a street with a high concentration of kids like AppleBlossom Blvd is just a tragedy waiting to happen. We therefore recommend that the Speed limit be reduced and that permanent solutions(Such as Speed reduction bumps and/or stop signs at regular intervals) be put in place in order to enforce that limit.
