BACKGROUND 3.1 On March 25, 1998 Staff received a request from the Region of Durham to respond to an application to amend the Durham Region Official Plan. Staff circulated the application to various agencies for their comments on April 14, 1998. 3.2 On May 12, 1998, the applicants submitted an application to amend the Clarington Official Plan. The application was circulated on May 201h, 1998 to receive agency comments. 4. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING USES 4.1 Existing Use: A residential dwelling established in 1895. The remainder of the lands are farmed. Surrounding Uses: North - Agricultural and rural residential South - Agricultural East - Agricultural West - Agricultural 5. PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT 5.1 The Provincial Policy Statement specifies that a residence deemed to be surplus to a farming operation may be severed from the property and a new residential lot may be created. The Policy Statement defines a "Residence Surplus to a Farming hn � REPORT NO.: PD-103-98 PAGE 3 Operation" as "one or two or more existing farm residences built prior to 1978 and surplus to the farm, or an existing farm residence that is rendered surplus as a result of farm consolidation (farm consolidation means the acquisition of additional farm parcels to be operated as one farm operation)." 6. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 6.1 The Durham Region Official Plan designates the subject lands "Permanent Agricultural Reserve subject to Section 14.3 (Major Open Space System). This dual designation was applied in recognition of the agricultural potential of this portion of the Oak Ridges Moraine. Lands so designated shall be used primarily for agricultural purposes. The agricultural policies in the Durham Region Official Plan states that a surplus dwelling may be severed if a farmer merges abutting farms into a single parcel. 6.2 The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject lands "Prime Agricultural Area Subject to Section 14.6 (Oak Ridges Moraine)" in conformity with the dual designation in the Regional Official Plan. Lands designated "Prime Agricultural Area" shall be used for farm purposes. 6.3 Section 13.3.8 of the Clarington Official Plan states that: "Dwellings which are rendered surplus as a result of the consolidation of abutting farms may be severed provided: a) the farms are merged into a single parcel; b) the dwelling to be severed is not,required for farm employees; and c) the surplus dwelling lot is generally less than 0.6 hectares". The applicant can satisfy conditions b) and c). However, for personal and financial reasons, the applicant does not want to consolidate the farm parcels into a single parcel. As such, an amendment to the Clarington Official Plan is required in order to sever the surplus dwelling from the larger farm parcel. Kn � REPORT NO.: PD-103-98 PAGE 4 7. ZONING BY-LAW 7.1 The subject lands are zoned "Agricultural Exception (A-1)". Farm uses shall prevail on lands zoned "Agricultural Exception (A=1)". A rural residential use is permitted within the A-1 zone provided all regulations contained within Section 9-2 of the Zoning By-law are met. 8. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION 8.1 In accordance with the Municipality's procedures and the requirements of the Planning Act, notice was given as follows: • Public Meeting signs for the application were installed on the site; and Written notice was circulated to all assessed ert ro p p y owners ne s w'ithin 120 metres of the subject lands, and to all interested parties identified through the previous application. 8.2 As of the writing of this report, the only comments received to date are the support of the Durham Federation of Agriculture who advised in writing that they support this application. 9. AGENCY COMMENTS 9.1 Staff circulated the application to a number of agencies. All agencies have responded to the circulation. The following agencies had no objection to the application: • Municipality of Clarington Works Department • Municipality of Clarington Fire Department, • Central Lake Ontario Conservation 9.2 The Durham Region Health Department state that they shall be satisfied that the sewage system is completely contained on the proposed severed property. Ana 1 I i REPORT NO.: PD-103-98 PAGE 5 10. PROPOSED AMENDMENT 10.1 The applicants wishes to sever a 0.6 ha lot from a 41.25 ha agricultural parcel. They state that the dwelling is surplus to their needs. The Clarington Official Plan allows the conveyance of a lot supporting a surplus farm dwelling from an agricultural parcel if the subject agricultural parcel melds with a second farm parcel, hence creating one larger farm parcel. This is possible, since the applicants own abutting properties, but for personal and financial reasons they do not want to meld the farm parcel. The applicant wishes to keep all farm parcels as separate land holdings. (Attachment No. 1). The proposed amendment as submitted by the applicant can be referred to in Attachment#2 to this report 10.2 The house proposed to be severed from the property was built in 1895. This complies with the provision within the Provincial Policy Statement whereby only homes be built prior to 1978 may be severed from a farm as a surplus dwelling. The Provincial Policy Statement also states that a surplus dwelling may be removed if acquisition of additional farm parcels occurs and these farm parcels are operated as one farm operation. It is noted that the Provincial Policy does not require the legal consolidation of ownership, just that they be farmed as one farm operation. 10.3 In support of the application, Mr. & Mrs. Millson state that their current farm holdings previously supported three separate farms. The farmers on two of those farm parcels were offered lifetime leases by the Millsons. This they claimed eliminated the need to create two (2) additional farm retirement lots. The third farm's homestead is being used as the farm headquarters. Kn � 1 I ' REPORT NO.: PD-103-98 PAGE 6 The Millson's claim that through their past actions, particularly the lifetime lease arrangements, they have eliminated the need for the original farm operators to require retirement lots. Hence their past actions have not resulted in additional land being removed from agricultural production. 10.4 The Millson's future plans are to keep the Heifer Raising Operation and the Dairy Operation separate in order to pass these businesses on to their children. They state that amalgamation of these operations would make it difficult to manage the farms in a co-operative venture. They state that "the merging of farm parcels when taken to the extreme becomes an encumbrance on the management and flexibility of the farm business and is detrimental to the viability of the firm itself." 10.5 Lands, which the applicant proposes to sever, include an unused barn, garage and "open-front shelter" and the surplus house. In accordance with the Municipality's Zoning By-law, a barn cannot be located on a residential property and the accessory structures must also comply with the provisions of the by-law. These issues can be resolved before Staff reports back to Committee and Council. 10.6 In support of the application, Dale Toombs (Agriculture and Rural Land Use Consulting) prepared an Agricultural Assessment which provides information regarding the Millson's farm operation including farm viability and housing requirements. The consultant states that the applicants are full time farmers and that the farm operation encompasses four farm parcels totalling 170 hectares. Mr. Toombs notes that the Millsons have operated a dairy farm since 1976 and that there is no need for year-round housing accommodation for farm employees, other than the owners. Mr. Toombs also states that in his opinion, the application complies with the Provincial Policy Statement and with the Minimum Distance Separation regulations. Any REPORT NO.: PD-103-98 PAGE 7 11. CONCLUSION 11.1 The purpose of this report is to facilitate the Public Meeting as required by the Planning Act, to provide Committee and Council with some background on the application submitted and for Staff to indicate issues or areas of concern regarding the subject application. It is recommended the application be referred back to Staff for further processing and subsequent report . Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, AA- Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P., R.P.P. W.H.

Town of Clarington , Roll No. 010-160-14300-0000 Jim & Gladys Millson 6899 Solina Rd . , R . R . #1 Enniskillen , Ontario LOB 1J0 905-263-2183 January 27 , 1998 . To Whom it May Concern , With respect to Section 12 . 3 . 11 - Severance of a Surplus Dwelling , we find that from an estate and business management perspective , it is unacceptable to merge the two farms to create a 300 acre parcel . Our only option is to seek an Amendment to the Durham Region Official Plan to allow the retention of the existing — lot line dividing the 101 . 92 Acre farm from the 200 Acre farm. (Refer to accompanying descriptive documents ) . It was brought to our attention that economic and estate management arguments alone , will not justify our cause . We are therefore compiling supporting evidence that relates more directly to land planning and the harmonious existence of a profitable family farm operation . We realize and respect that our neighbours have the right to the quiet enjoyment of their homes and property . The preservation of the lot line in question will in no way jeopardize that right . Until our purchase of Lot 24 , Con . 6 , our current farm land holdings existed as three independent farms run by three separate farm families . All three of these elderly farmers would have easily qualified for a retirement lot severance . Re : S . 1 /2 Lots 25 , 26 , Con . 7 -- the 200 Acre farm Eber Millson did not exercise his right to a retirement lot because we gave him a lifetime tenancy of the farmhouse in which he still resides . 2 610 2 - Aside: When he no longer needs this house , it will be inhabited by the farmer who milks the cows . Re : Lot 24 , Con . 6 -- the 50 Acre farm The widow sold the entire 117 Acre farm when the old farmer died . Our family began in this house and this is our farm headquarters . It was a benefit to land planning and the preservation of farmland that we did purchase this farm for it is quite probable that it otherwise would have been sold for 10 acre lot development ( as this was permitted and occurred all around us at that time) . Aside: This is the home to be occupied by the farmer who raises the replacement heifers for the herd . Re : N . Pt. Lots 25 , 26 , Con . 7 -- The Former Hoag Farm Frank and Bernice could have severed a retirement lot but we offered as a part of the purchase deal - a lifetime lease that they might retire in the farmhouse . In addition to the land holdings above with buildings , we own _ 67 acres of bare land ( Lot 24 , Con . 7 ) and 11 . 6 acres of Cedar bush ( Pt . Lot 21 , Con . 7 ) that we use to supply the farm with fence posts . We have no intention or desire to have buildings on these lands as we have enough existing buildings . We would like to point out that from a land planning perspective , our management has eliminated the possible creation of 3 retirement lot severances and we have consolidated the farm building sites housing animals , from 3 locations to 2 farmsteads . As well , we avoided the creation of 6 lots with our Ontario Hydro Easement Agreement. (3 Lots each parcel , on both sides of Solina Rd . ) Most other expropriation agreements created severances all along the Tower Corridor. The reason for our purchase of the 101 Acres ( the subject land ) was to provide additional cropland to support an expanding dairy operation . Our farm renovations and automation upgrades of 1993 have more than tripled our herd size capacity . The 100 acres of bare land is used for feed production to support the 3 itl 3 - expanding herd , and the surplus is cash crops . Land used as cropland is more compatible with the surrounding homes than would be animal husbandry . Furthermore , to set up additional animal housing facilities on the acquired farm would be to reverse our consolidation efforts , and threaten efficiency gains that we have accomplished . To refuse our request based on the fear that someday we will erect a farmhouse on the vacant land is misdirected . We already own 2 parcels of vacant land which could support a house f and are entitled to our own retirement severance lot some day in the future . Just as our operation requires bare land to be viable , there are several local Cash Crop Operators who would find the 100 Acres remaining , to be a viable farm purchase as cropland . They in fact would prefer not to have to purchase the house. What bona fide farmer has time to be a landlord? This bare land is essential to the land base of our existing farm operation and the contemplation of its sale to a third party would have to be an act of desperation . We have worked hard to improve and expand our farm business . The potential work load here is great and we have relied heavily in recent years , on the help of our children . It is our opinion that at some time in the future , the farm could support two families ( hopefully 2 of our children ) housed on the 200 acre lot and the 50 acre lot . This still leaves the house on the Hoag farm as a surplus dwelling . Since the pride and responsibility of land / 4 h 4 - ownership motivates commitment, it would be appropriate to gift the land assets more or less equally between the Heifer Raising Operation and the Dairy Barn . If we should agree to create a 300 acre parcel of land , it will cause problems in the future management of a co-operative venture . Policy 13 . 3 . 12 of the Municipality of Clarington Official Plan allows for the creation of a new agricultural lot if the retained lots are intended for agricultural use , and if they are sufficiently large to maintain flexibility for future changes in type or size of agricultural operation and are a minimum of 40 Hectares in size . The subject land is a 41 . 25 Hectare Agricultural parcel with practically all of the acreage being arable . This quality of land lends to greater flexibility for future changes in type or size of agricultural operation. If the subject land' meets the criteria for creation of a new agricultural lot, then our request to retain the lot line and keep the abutting parcels separate under Policy 12 . 3 . 11 is justified and should be acceptable and compatible with the philosophies of the Durham Regional Official Plan . Furthermore , under Regional Policy No. 12. 3. 12 , the Council may grant by amendment, a severance of' a surplus dwelling on a non- abutting acquired farm. We are requesting severance of a surplus dwelling on an acquired farm which is both non-abutting to our farm headquarters and abutting another acquired parcel of 200 acres . We wish to retain the existing lot line that separates these two adequately sized parcels. . . . . 5 5 _ If we did not already own the abutting 200 acres , Policy 12 . 3 . 12 would apply without prerequisite of merger . To enforce Policy 12 . 3 . 11 over 12 . 3 . 12 is to discriminate against the larger land owner which is contradictory to the Region ' s desire to maximize productive farmland use . To promote large scale farming does not necessarily require the creation of excessively large farm parcels . Excessive size can limit manageability and flexibility. We are aware of the pitfalls of creating a small parcel but this request to retain the existing lot line is not about creating _ a small parcel . This parcel satisfies the minimum acreage requirement. Even after the surplus dwelling is severed , there remains 40 . 65 . Ha. Furthermore, following approval of the severance , the land use will in no way be altered from what it has been for the past decade . We have reviewed the Provincial Land Planning Policy 4 . 1 on Farm Splits and in every aspect , the subject land would qualify as a viable parcel . Reviewing section 2 . 1 . 1 of the Provincial Policy Statement, 1996 , "the future viability of agriculture in Ontario depends considerably on maintaining farm parcels that are of an appropriate size not only for the area in which these farms are located but also for long-term agricultural use . " In our area most farms are 100 acres in size . One of the main areas of expansion of agriculture in our area is the increase in cash cropping and custom farming . The farms that stay with Dairy or Animal Husbandry are continually 6 - 6- forced to expand to survive, or supplement their income with an off farm job. There are very few farms in our area that do not have someone working off the farm. To survive in business means to be prepared for the worst . Within our farm plan , we made an effort to retain this parcel separate by registering ownership different to the abutting 200 acres . We are a family farm and are totally in the business of farming -- we are not developers . We do not intend on ever selling our acquired land , but no one can predict the future so we must value and protect our options . Clearly , ours is a case of circumstances which the original intentions of Sec . 12 . 3 . 11 of the Regional Official Plan did not anticipate . The merging of farm parcels when taken to the, extreme becomes an encumbrance on the management and flexibility of the farm business and is detrimental to the viability of the farm itself. Farming today is a business of high capital outlay . Not only in set-up but continual reinvestment in terms of improvements , expansions , repairs and upgrades . If the 200 acres becomes a 300 acre parcel , it will put us in a position of placing the bulk of our assets at risk as collateral . The Ontario Farm Management Analysis Project shows that consistently over the past decade , the average dairy farm in Ontario manages between 230 and 250 tillable acres ( this includes rented land ) . We already owned 330 acres before the purchase of the 101 . 9 acre farm. To merge the two parcels does not improve the viability of either farm. . . . . . 7 - 7 - Part of the Region ' s Planning Department Vision Statement is to implement a policy which improves the quality of life for the community by influencing its physical , social , environmental and economic well-being . Being sensitive to the diverse requirements of the farming sector in our region will have positive repercussions on the economic welfare of the entire region . In conclusion , our land management policy has benefited Durham Region repeatedly in that 3 retirement lots were never created ; expropriation did not sever the 200 acres nor the 67 acres into a total of 6 parcels ; and 3 additional houses could be constructed if it were our ambition (which it is not) . As we have demonstrated after 25 years of land management, lot severances are a practice which we do not exploit . We have discussed our case with Ms . Judy Coward : Rural Community Advisor of the Agriculture and Rural Division of OMAFRA, Port Perry , and found her to be supportive and helpful . We have also retained the services of Dale Toombs: Agricultural and Rural Land Use Consultant and his evaluation is included with this application . V,''e would be happy to show any of those whom it may concern , around our operation provided you prearrange your visit not to conflict with milking or feeding times. Your consideration of this Amendment to the Plan is appreciated .

LOCATION 2.1 The subject lands are located in Part of Lot 28, Concession 3, former Township of Clarke. The property is referred to as 3211 Highway 35/115. It is located on the east side of Highway 35/115. 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 On April 24, 1997 an application to amend the Clarington Official Plan Was submitted to permit the establishment of these uses on the site. On March 18, 1997, the Planning and Development Department received correspondence from the Region advising that they had received a Regional Official Plan Amendment Application to permit this proposed use. i 3.2 On June 25, 1998 Staff received an application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a golf driving range and a miniature golf course on the subject lands. 4. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING USES 4.1 Existing Use: existing residence and barn. The remainder of the lands are vacant. 4.2 Surrounding Uses: North - Clarke High School, Pines Senior Public School and Agricultural uses. South - Agricultural uses East - Agricultural uses West - Highway 35/115, Agricultural and existing commercial uses. REPORT NO.: PD-104-98 PAGE 3 5. PROVINCIAL POLICY STATEMENT 5.1 In making planning decisions, Council must have regard for the Provincial Policy Statement. The Provincial Policy Statement in Section 2.1 states "Prime Agricultural areas will be protected for agriculture. The Policy Statement is very clear in the protection of Prime Agricultural Areas, stating that "An area may be excluded from prime agricultural areas in 3 situations only. These are: i) an expansion of an urban area or rural settlement area; ii) extraction of mineral resources; and, iii) limited non-residential uses provided that: a) there is a demonstrated need for additional land to be designated to accommodate the proposed use; b) there are no reasonable alternative locations which avoid prime agricultural areas; and c) there are no reasonable alternative locations in prime agricultural areas with lower priority agricultural lands." The Policy Statement identifies the permitted uses and activities in Prime Agricultural areas as being agricultural uses, secondary uses and agriculture-related uses. Secondary uses are defined as: "uses secondary to the principal use of the property, including home occupations, home industries, and uses that produce value-added agricultural products from the farm operation on the property." 6. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 6.1 The Durham Region Official Plan designates the subject lands "Permanent Agricultural Reserve". Lands so designated shall be used primarily for agricultural purposes. 6.2 Within the Clarington Official Plan, the subject lands are designated "Prime Agricultural Area" and "Environmental Protection". Lands designated "Prime Agricultural Area" shall be used for farm purposes. K 1 Q REPORT NO.: PD-104-98 PAGE 4 6.3 The goal and objectives of the Agricultural policies within the Clarington Official Plan are very clear in their support of the preservation of agricultural land. The objectives include, among other things, "to preserve high quality agricultural lands for farming purposes", "to promote stewardship of agricultural lands for future generations", and "to direct non-farm uses to settlement areas". 6.4 The Environmental Protection designation reflects the tributary located on the south portion of the lands. The proposed use will be located some distance from the tributary. 7. ZONING BY-LAW 7.1 The subject lands are zoned "Agricultural Exception (A-1)", "Environmental Protection (EP)" and "Special Purpose Commercial (C4)". Farm uses shall prevail on lands zoned "Agricultural Exception (A-1)". The lands zoned "Environmental Protection (EP)" surround a tributary which is in the southern portion of the subject parcel. The lands zoned "Special Purpose Commercial (C4)" are situated directly adjacent to Highway 35/115. The C4 zone permits retail uses such as restaurants, fruit and vegetable outlets, garden or nursery sales and supply establishments and motor vehicle sales. 8. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION 8.1 In accordance with the requirements of the Planning Act, notice was given as foI lows: • Public Meeting signs for the revised application were installed on the site; and • Written notice was circulated to all assessed property owners within 120 metres of the subject lands and to all interested parties. 8.2 The purpose of this report is to fulfill the public meeting requirement with respect to the zoning by-law amendment. A public meeting was previously held on July 7, 620 t i REPORT NO.: PD-104-98 PAGE 5 1997 to address the Clarington Official Plan Amendment application (COPA 97- 004). At that time, no one objected to the application. 9. AGENCY COMMENTS 9.1 Staff circulated the application to a number of agencies. Ontario Hydro and the Municipality of Clarington Fire Department had no objection to the application: 9.2 The Municipality of Clarington Public Works Department have requested that further information be provided. They want information on the location of the teeing area and any on-site berms. They also need to know the general direction of on-site drainage flow and receive verification of written permission from the Ministry of Transportation that the proposed entrance and exit will be acceptable. In addition, the applicant will be requested to pay 5% cash-in-lieu of parkland dedication prior to site plan approval 9.3 The Durham Region Health Department have no objections, but note that the existing restroom facilities located at Ace Submarine cannot be utilized by the golf driving range and miniature golf course customers. Portable restroom facilities must be provided to the satisfaction of the Health Unit. 9.4 The Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority states that they have no objection to the principle of the development. They note that a tributary exists on the site and that this area is regulated under the Fill, Construction and Alteration to Waterways Regulation. They require further information on the grading and the eastern mesh fence. 9.5 The Ministry of Transportation has concerns with respect to access to and from the site. The applicant has met with the Ministry to resolve these concerns. The Ministry is currently awaiting the receipt of final drawings showing the entrance and 621 REPORT NO.: PD-104-98 PAGE 6 exit before they comment further. The Ministry also notes that a Building/Land Use Permit and Sign Permit must be issued by the Ministry of Transportation. 10. STAFF COMMENTS 10.1 The applicant wishes to redesignate and rezone the lands to an appropriate designation to support the establishment of a driving range and miniature golf course. A copy of the Official Plan Amendment, as submitted by the applicant, is contained within Attachment#2 to this report. 10.2 According to the Canada Land Inventory Classification Mapping for agricultural soils, the subject site is 80% Class 1 soils, Class 1 soils being recognized as the best — agricultural land in Ontario. The remaining 20% are Class 4 soils. Class 4 soils possess low and fair productivity and may be subject to some topographical constraints. The Class 4 soils on the site are generally associated with the tributary. j The applicant has advised Staff that the land has not been used for agricultural crops since the mid 1970's when a horse stable and racetrack were established on the site. The most appropriate way to determine the agricultural capability of the land is to have an agricultural assessment of the property conducted. On September 3, 1998 Durham Region Planning Department requested the applicant to have an agricultural assessment done. 10.3 According to the Provincial Policy Statement, it is Staff's opinion that the application does not meet the exemption for exclusion from Prime Agricultural Areas (see Section 5.1 of this report). 10.4 A dominant theme within the Clarington Official Plan is sustainability. The redesignation of lands designated Prime Agricultural Area which contain high quality agricultural soils and have no serious constraint to farming would be in direct contradiction to the principles and policies of the Official Plan, unless it can be demonstrated that the lands are not viable for agricultural production. 02 i i REPORT NO.: PD-104-98 PAGE 7 11. CONCLUSION 11.1 The purpose of this report is to facilitate the Public Meeting as required by the Planning Act, to provide Committee and Council with some background on the application submitted and for Staff to indicate issues or areas of concern regarding the subject application.

The effect of this amendment is to permit a golf driving range and miniature golf course on lands designated Prime Agricultural Area that which otherwise would not be permitted except by amendment to this Plan. LOCATION & DESCRIPTION This amendment would effect approximately 13.88 hectares (34.29 acres) of land legally described as follows: Concession 3, Lot 28, 10R-3083, 3211 Highway No. 35/115 in the Municipality of Clarington in the Regional Municipality of Durham. These lands are located at the east side of Highway No. 35/115 north of the Village of Newcastle and south of the Village of Orono. BASIS The proposed recreational facilities which consist of a Golf Driving Range and Miniature Golf Course is a desirable and compatible use in the area. The majority of surrounding uses are non-farming activities and are of a commercial nature. The Golf Driving Range and Golf Miniature Course are also of a commercial/recreational nature and are compatible with surrounding features. The impact of these recreational facilities on the agricultural land is minimized as the Golf Driving Range and Miniature Golf Course can be viewed as temporary uses. While these recreational uses are temporary in nature the subject property can be reverted back to its original state without much difficulty. The Miniature Golf Course is located entirely within a commercial zone and is a smaller operation that does not require much land. / 1-) -7 I 1 The proposed subject uses are ideally located next to a provincial highway: the provincial highway provides a legal access to the site, generate an abundance of travelling motorists, provides visual exposure and improves the economic This Golf Driving Range and Miniature Golf Course would provide a unique opportunity to enhance the rural economic viability of the Municipality of Clarington and Region of Durham with minimal diversion of the character of this area. The subject property is highly visible from Highway No. 35/115. The property is located on the east side of the well travelled provincial highway and located adjacent to existing commercial development. The property has a high level of access and can be easily reached by the travelling public. The proposed recreational uses will complement the existing commercial facilities in the area and represents a logical extension of these existing commercial uses. These recreational uses, due to its size and low intensity of use, would not detract from the agricultural uses along Highway No. 35/115. The proposed recreational facilities would have minimal or no impact to the — natural features because of it's location on the subject property. These recreational facilities would serve the immediate community, the existing school's, commuter's, and cottage traffic. The sport of golf is one of the fastest growing industries in Canada today. These proposed recreational facilities would complement this trend. The proposed recreational facilities can be used for people of all ages from the expert golfing professional to the novice player. This proposed amendment reflects the need for these types of facilities in this area.

BACKGROUND 2.1 .1 On July 13th, 1998, Staff Report PD-91-98 was submitted for Committee and Council's consideration at the request of Council in light of concerns that had been received by the Municipality in connection with the lack of on-street parking in new residential subdivisions. 2.1.2 Council, in consideration of the report, endorsed the following resolution: "THAT Report PD-91-98 be received for information; THAT staff report back to the General Purpose and Administration Committee in September 1998 pertaining to amending the Comprehensive Zoning By-law to require developers to include larger garages in their new homes in order to accommodate both the parking of vehicles and storage of household items; and -- THAT all interested parties listed in Report PD-91-98 and any delegations be advised of Council's decision." 3. PUBLIC O N TICE AND SUBMISSIONS 3.1 As the proposed amendment would be applicable to the Municipality at large, notice of the Public Meeting was placed in the local newspapers serving the Municipality pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, 3.2 In addition to the newspaper advertisements, by correspondence, the Oshawa- Durham Home Builders Association was notified of the upcoming Public Meeting. A copy of the notice and earlier staff report (PD-91-098) was forwarded to their attention along with a request for any input which they might offer on the application. 3.3 In discussing the merits of the application with a representative of the Oshawa Home Builders Association, staff was advised that this item would be placed on their upcoming membership meeting for discussion. It was also confirmed that the Urban Development Institute, would be informed of the upcoming Public Meeting. REPORT NO.: PD-105-98 PAGE 3 3.4 As of the writing of this report, other than staff's initial discussions with the Oshawa-Durham Home Builders Association there has been one general inquiry received regarding this application. 4. STAFF COMMENTS 4.1 As noted in Staff Report PD-91-98, although it is not within the mandate of the Municipality's Zoning By-lawto address on-street parking,the By-law does require each residential dwelling unit be it a single family, semi-detached or street townhouse unit to provide a minimum of two (2) parking spaces. 4.2 The majority of dwelling units constructed today provide one space within the — garage and the second parking space-on the driveway. However, a common practice today finds the garage being used more frequently for the storage of outdoor household items to the extent that it is questionable whether the parking space located within the garage can adequately accommodate a vehicle. This is most apparent where the garage constructed is a traditional single-car width" (9'10") compared to a "garage and a half' (15') or "two-car garage" (20'). 4.3 Although the Municipality's Zoning By-law does not directly regulate the size of a garage, it does stipulate that all parking spaces located within a garage must comply with the By-law minimum size (2.75m by 5.7m) (9' x 185). For reasons stated previously, this minimum standard for a single car garage does not appear to be working. 4.4 In order to implement Council's direction, an amendment to the Zoning By-law could be drafted which would introduce a new minimum width and/or depth standard for a single car garage. Staff will examine the new standard subsequent to the input from the Home Builders Association. / 7 A REPORT NO.: PD-105-98 PAGE 4 4.5 Pending Council's direction and in consideration of any comments submitted through the public meeting process, a draft of the By-law Amendment will be finalized and forwarded for Committee and Council's review. Staff's subsequent report will clarify the content of the draft By-law and identify any possible implementation procedures. 4.6 In addition to this report and in light of Council's concerns that have been expressed on the provision of both on and off-street parking facilities, staff of the Planning and Public Works Department will be re-examining the issue of on-street parking and will be forwarding a further report for Committee's consideration. 4.7 As the purpose of this report is to satisfy the requirements of the Public Meeting. process under the Planning Act, it is respectfully requested that this report be referred back to Staff for further processing and the preparation of a subsequent report.

APPLICATION DETAILS 1.1 Owners: Claret Investments Limited and Uvalde Investment Company 1.2 Applicant Claret Investments Limited and Uvalde Investment Company carrying on business as Courtice Heights Developments 1.3 Agent: WDM Consultants 1.4 Official Plan: The applicant is seeking the approval of an amendment to the Clarington Official Plan. The proposed amendment submitted by the applicant (Attachment No. 3) contemplates the following: • the removal of a Medium density (M) symbol from the Hancock Neighbourhood as shown on Map A2; • an adjustment to the Hancock Neighbourhood population allocation from 2800 to 2900 as shown on Map E1; and • various adjustments to the housing unit targets for the Hancock Neighbourhood and the Courtice Urban Area as detailed in Table 9- 2 in the Clarington Official Plan. 2. LOCATION AND EXISTING LAND USES 2.1 The Hancock Neighbourhood is bounded on the north by the north limit of the Courtice Urban Area, Black Creek and Highway No.'2 to the south, Hancock Road to the east and Courtice Road to the west (Attachment No. 4). 2.2 North of Nash Road, there is strip large lot residential development along Courtice, Nash and Hancock Roads. South of Nash Road, a plan of subdivision has been 637 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 3 developed which contains a mix of single detached, linked and townhouse units. Cultivated fields, fallow farmland, and wooded areas comprise the balance of the Hancock Neighbourhood. 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Application to Amend the Official Plan of the Former Town of Newcastle In April of 1992, WDM Consultants filed an application to amend the Official Plan for the former Town of Newcastle. The application (OPA 92-N/007) contemplated the following: • an increase in the target population of Neighbourhood 3C from 1900 to 3600; • the introduction of a Neighbourhood Commercial site; • the designation of medium and low density residential areas; • the realignment of the collector road network; • the introduction of Minor Open Space designations; and, • the re-definition of Hazard Land Areas. In September of 1995, the applicant requested that the Durham Regional Planning Department refer the application to the Ontario Municipal Board. The Clarington Official Plan was approved by Clarington Council in January of 1996, and incorporated many of the changes contemplated by OPA 92-N/007. Nevertheless, the applicant received legal advise to continue with the referral of application OPA 92-N/007 and the referral remains before the Ontario Municipal Board. 3.2 Referral No. 3 The Clarington Official Plan was approved by the Regional Municipality of Durham on October 31, 1996. The applicant referred the following portions of the Clarington Official Plan (Referral No. 3): REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 4 • the population figure for the Hancock Neighbourhood; • the low density housing unit targets for the Hancock Neighbourhood, the Courtice Urban Area and the corresponding totals; and, • Section 14.4.3 which requires a minimum setback for development from natural features and Environmental Protection Areas, other than stream valleys. 3.3 Application to Amend the Clarington Official Plan On June 27, 1997, an application for an amendment to the Clarington Official Plan, (COPA 97-007) was received from WDM Consultants. The main purpose of this application was to remove the Medium Density (M) Symbol on the applicant's northern plan of subdivision (18T-94027). The amendment application also proposes related adjustments to population and housing targets for the neighbourhood. A Public Meeting as required by the Planning Act with respect to the proposed amendment was held on September 8, 1997. The applicant referred this application (COPA 97-007) to the Ontario Municipal Board in February of 1998 in order to allow it to be consolidated with Referral No. 3 to the Clarington Official Plan. 3.4 Settlement Discussions Staff met with the applicant and his consultants a number of times over the past year. Through the preparation of the Neighbourhood Design Plan, including conceptual servicing plans many of the issues surrounding the development of this area have been resolved. 6 �9 1 1 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 5 One issue was the requirement in the Official Plan for a setback from natural features identified as Environmental Protection Areas. Section 14.4.3 requires a setback of lot lines from natural features such as valleylands and woodlots with the setback to be determined on a site-specific basis. In no case shall the setback be less than 5 metres. Staff are proposing a modification to add an exception to Section 14.4. Modification No. 171 introduces a new subsection 14.4.5 in the Clarington Official Plan as detailed in Attachment No. 2. The proposed modification is discussed in Section 7.5 of this report. i The cumulative effect of proposed Amendment No. 10 and Modification No. 171 would be the resolution of Referral No. 3 to the Clarington Official Plan, thus substantially reducing the length of time for the Ontario Municipal Board Hearing.... 3.5 Related Subdivision and Zoning Applications The applicant currently has active applications for two proposed developments within the Hancock Neighbourhood; one in the southeast quadrant (18T-92014 and DEV 92- 033) and the second in the northwest quadrant (18T-94027 and DEV 94-067). These applications are also before the Board and have been consolidated with the hearing regarding Referral No. 3 to the Clarington Official Plan. Reports PD-107-98 and PD- 108-98 will deal with these applications separately. 4. PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 4.1 In accordance with the Planning Act, a Public Meeting with respect to the matter was held on September 8h, 1997. As prescribed by the Planning Act, notice of the September 8', 1997 Public Meeting was provided to all assessed property owners within 120 metres of the subject lands. 640 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 6 4.2 One verbal submission was received in support of development in the Hancock Neighbourhood. Four written submissions have been received expressing concerns regarding the following: • the need for a watershed study • storm water management • destruction of the natural environment • residential density • increased traffic These issues will be elaborated upon within Section 7 of this Report. The submissions are attached to this report. 5. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan Within the Durham Regional Official Plan, the subject property is designated as a Living Area, with indications of Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Lands designated for Living Areas shall be used primarily for housing purposes. In light of their ecological functions and scientific and educational values Environmentally Sensitive Areas, are subject to environmental impact studies to determine the degree of sensitivity, the potential cumulative effects of any proposed development and need for mitigating measures. 5.2 Clarington Official Plan Within the Clarington Official Plan, the Hancock Neighbourhood is predominantly designated low density urban residential. The Neighbourhood contains three Medium Density (M) symbols along the east side of Courtice Road. Two woodlots and the valley lands associated with Black Creek and its tributaries are 641 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 7 designated as Environmental Protection Areas. These areas and their ecological functions are to be preserved and protected from the effects of human activity. Development on these lands is not permitted. Map Cl indicates that the entire neighbourhood falls within the Lake Iroquois Beach. The Lake Iroquois Beach is a geological feature in the Municipality identified in recognition of its extensive forested areas and wildlife habitat, and its significant functions of groundwater recharge and discharge. Map C1 also indicates hazard lands and a small portion of the tableland woodlots are I shown associated with Black Creek, its tributaries and the valley lands of both. 6. AGENCY COMMENTS The application for an amendment to the Clarington Official Plan was circulated to various departments and agencies for comments. In addition, proposed Modification No. 171 was circulated to Central Lake Ontario Conservation and the Durham Regional Planning Department. The following provides a brief synopsis of the comments received. 6.1 Durham Regional Planning Department The Regional Planning Department reviewed the proposed amendment and Modification No. 171 in relation to the policies of the Durham Regional Official Plan and the Provincial Policy Statements. The Regional Planning Department advised that both the proposed amendment and Modification No. 171 meet the,general intent of the policies of both documents. 642 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 8 6.2 Central Lake Ontario Conservation (CLOC) CLOC has advised that they have no objection to either the removal of the Medium Density (M) symbol from Map A2 of the Clarington Official Plan or the adjustments to the housing unit targets as proposed by Amendment No. 10. With respect to Section 14.4.3, CLOC advises that ideally a minimum 5 metre setback, as contemplated by Section 14.4.3 would be incorporated into the two related plans of subdivision (18T-92014 and 18T-94027). However, the clearing of native vegetation and the subsequent agricultural activities has resulted in new edge growth around the perimeter of sensitive areas which abut these two plans. Given _ these changes and the site specific mitigative measures recommended by the Environmental Impact Statement, CLOC has no objection to the introduction of a new subsection 14.4.5 as contemplated by Modification No. 171. 6.3 Separate School Board The Separate School Board has no objection to the proposal and notes that specific conditions of draft approval have been forwarded for the two related draft plans of subdivision. 6.4 Clarington Fire Department The Clarington Fire Department did not object to the proposed Official Plan Amendment. However, it was noted that Station #4 in Courtice is manned by full time staff only between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. After 6:00 p.m. fire fighters must respond when notified by pager and response times are becoming more difficult to attain as increased growth occurs along with the corresponding increase in traffic. 643 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 9 6.5 Other Agencies/Departments The balance of the agencies which provided comments with respect to the proposed amendment were Ontario Hydro, the Regional Health Department, the Regional Works Department, -the Clarington Public Works Department and the Clarington Community Services Department. None of these agencies have objections to the proposed amendment application. Although the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board provided comments and conditions of draft approval for the two related plans of subdivision, a response with respect to COPA 97-007 has not been received. 7. STAFF COMMENTS 7.1 Removal of Medium Density (M) Symbol I The applicant's proposal includes the removal of a Medium Density (M) symbol from the north west portion of the Neighbourhood. The location of the Medium Density (M) symbol in the Neighbourhood generally corresponds with the location of the proposed plan of subdivision 18T-94027. The applicant originally intended to include a townhouse component within plan of subdivision 18T-94027. However, once the location of the Type "C" Arterial road was finalized, the applicant concluded that it would be difficult to proceed with a street townhouse development since the Municipality would be reluctant to approve street townhouses with direct access onto a Type "C" Arterial. In addition, the applicant's position is that the size of the property is not conducive to the development of a block townhouse or apartment development without seriously impacting upon the ability of the balance of the lands to develop in a comprehensive manner. 644 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 10 The Clarington Official Plan establishes the following housing targets by housing type: • 70% detached, semi-detached and similar housing forms • 20% townhouse;walk-up apartment and similar housing forms • 10% apartments It is noted that these targets are for the Municipality as whole and not individual neighbourhoods. The removal of the Medium Density (M) symbol would result in the following-- changes to the distribution of housing types in the Neighbourhood: Existing Proposed Official Plan Amendment • detached, semi-detached housing and similar 81% 89% housing forms • townhouse, walk-up apartment and similar 19% 11% housing forms While the applicant's proposal would lead to less diversity of housing types within this neighbourhood, it will not impact the overall targets for the Municipality. Moreover, the environmental considerations including a high water table has led staff to recommend lower densities for this Neighbourhood, and consequently a greater portion of detached and semi-detached housing types. Given the foregoing, staff have no objection to the removal of the Medium Density (M) symbol as proposed by the applicant and detailed in Amendment No. 10 to the Clarington Official Plan. 645 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 11 7.2 Housing Targets by Neighbourhood The applicant's proposal also includes various adjustments to Table 9-2 of the Clarington Official Plan. The adjustments to the housing targets by neighbourhood are detailed in the following: medium density units adjusted down by 75 units to reflect the removal of the Medium Density (M) symbol; • intensification units adjusted down by 25; and • low density units adjusted up by 100 units to reflect the removal of the Medium Density (M) symbol and reduction of intensification. The following chart details the differences between the Council adopted Official Plan, the proposal of Courtice Heights and Amendment No. 10 as proposed by staff. HANCOCK NEIGHBOURHOOD HOUSING TARGETS Low Medium High Intensify- Total cation COUNCIL ADOPTED 750 175 0 50 975 OFFICIAL PLAN COURTICE HEIGHTS 875 100 0 10 985 PROPOSAL PROPOSED 850 100 0 25 1975 AMENDMENT NO. 10 Although the number of total units for the Hancock Neighbourhood would remain constant at 975, there is also a marginal increase in population as a result of differences in occupancy rates. In order to determine population, an occupancy rate of 3.0 persons per unit is used for low density development while an occupancy rate of 2.6 persons per unit is used for medium density development. The increased number of low density units results in an increase in the planned population of 60 persons, even though the total number of units is constant. Due to rounding, this proposed increase in population proposed in Amendment No. 10 is tiny REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 12 from 2800 to 2900. It is noted that under the interpretation provisions of the Official Plan, an adjustment to population figure is not required but simply included for the sake of completeness. 7.3 Intensification Target Section 6.2.4 of the Clarington Official Plan states that one objective of the Plan will be to provide for opportunities for residential intensification. Recognizing this, the Council adopted Official Plan has established an intensification component of 50 units within Table 9-2. This component is intended to accommodate not only future severances from the large residential lots along Courtice, Nash and Hancock Roads but also the potential for apartments-in-houses. The proposed Amendment submitted by the applicant included a reduction in the intensification figure from 50- to 10. The applicant's position was that the proposed reduction was justified given the limited opportunities for intensification within the Neighbourhood. The Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan indicates a potential for approximately 10 infill lots, but the applicant's proposed amendment did not allow for the possibility of future apartments-in-houses. Apartments-in-houses are a valuable component of the Municipality's housing stock, aiding in the provision of a broad range of housing types and tenures. As such, staff felt it was inappropriate to reduce the intensification figure from 50 to 10. However, staff would support a reduction of the intensification targets to 25 allowing for .approximately 10 infill lots and 15 apartments-in-houses. It would also maintain the housing target for the neighbourhood at 975. 647 i REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 13 7.4 Density Overall, the development of the Hancock Neighbourhood will proceed with a gross density of 5.09 units per acre (12.58 units per hectare). This is lower than the density of most neighbourhoods in Courtice; the typical density is 7 units per acre (17.3 units per hectare). As noted earlier, the lower density for the Hancock Neighbourhood is a reflection of various environmental considerations including a high water table. The density will allow for larger single detached lots (15 m frontages), most located on lands other than those owned by Courtice Heights Developments. 7.5 Development Setback from Woodlots As noted in Section 3.3 of this Report, Staff also entered into discussions with the applicant in-the fall of 1997 on matters referred to the Ontario Municipal Board. A draft modification was prepared in consultation with CLOC staff and forwarded to the applicant, who subsequently indicated concurrence. Modification No. 171 introduces new Subsection 14.4.5 within Chapter 14 of the Clarington Official Plan. The new Subsection would read as follows: "Notwithstanding Section 14.4.3, a development setback for the woodlots designated Environmental Protection Area shall not be required for Plans of Subdivision 18T- 92014 and 18T-94027. Appropriate measures to protect Environmental Protection Areas on adjacent lands shall be implemented through the conditions of draft approval for the subdivision. Although the applicant is being provided an exception from the requirements of Section 14.4.3, it is noted that this is a unique situation. Ideally, a minimum 5 metre setback should be provided but the clearing of native vegetation prior to the Woodlot Preservation By-law has disturbed the natural forest edge. Environmental reports BAR REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 14 indicated that the existing edge disturbed by woodlot clearing and subsequent farming activities has pre-stressed the trees and resulted in new edge growth. Additional disturbances to the woodlot should be minimal with restrictive conditions of draft approval for those lots backing on to the woodlots. It is noted that all lots backing onto woodlots are deeper and the proposed zoning by- law requires accessory buildings to be setback from the rear property line at least 2 metres. I 7.6 Environmental Issues Several submissions from area residents expressed environmental concerns,' specifically: - • the environmental sensitivity of the site and the destruction of natural habitat; and, • the need for a watershed study. With respect to the environmental sensitivity of the site and the destruction of habitat, staff note that the most significant environmental features have been selected for protection under the Environmental Protection Area designation in the Official Plan. However, the designation of these lands for urbanization in the 1976 Durham Regional Official Plan has inevitably led to a conflict between the natural environment and approved land uses. Through the numerous environmental reports, acceptable means of mitigating impacts have been identified. Furthermore, the requirement to prepare Environmental Management Construction Plans through conditions of draft approval for every plan of subdivision in this neighbourhood will ensure that the recommendations of these reports are consolidated and implemented on a site specific basis at the time of construction. Thus, while there will be impacts on the natural environment and wildlife habitat, every possible action will be taken to 649 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 15 preserve the most significant components and to mitigate the impacts of urbanization. As for the need for a watershed study, staff note that this issue has been addressed by both Regional and Municipal staff in the past. Watershed plans are prepared in large part to establish the limits of development. As noted above, the principle of development in the Courtice Urban Area was established more than 20 years ago with the approval of the 1976 Durham Regional Official Plan. Sub-watershed plans are then prepared to identify conceptual implementation plans including storm water management facilities. It is noted that the Official Plan requires the preparation of a sub-watershed study prior to municipal approval of any draft plan of subdivision. However, where a master drainage plan was prepared prior to the adoption of the new Official Plan, the master drainage plan is sufficient. As noted below, a master drainage plan covering Hancock Neighbourhood has been prepared and approved. Accordingly, the Official Plan imposes no requirement for either a watershed study or a sub-watershed study. In 1980 a storm water management study was prepared for Central Lake Ontario Conservation for the Courtice Urban Area. It has been updated in 1989, 1990 and 1991. This study was updated to meet increasing standards along with the findings of Environmental Impact Studies. Central Lake Ontario Conservation and Public Works staff indicate that these studies, the environmental impact studies and the various addendum provide for development in Hancock Neighbourhood to meet all current standards. Accordingly, it is staff's view that a watershed study is not necessary for the assessment of this application nor the two related plans of subdivision (18T-92014 and 18T-94027). 7.7 Storm Water Issues Two residents raised concerns regarding surface water flows. However, it should be � � A REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 16 noted that this issue is not relevant to the matters addressed in the proposed official plan amendment or the proposed modification. This concern is addressed in the reports on the southerly draft plan of subdivision and the related rezoning (PD-107- 98). 7.8 Increase in Traffic One submission from an area resident raised concerns about future increases in volume of traffic. Staff note that the Hancock Neighbourhood is evolving from a rural environment to a more urban environment in accordance with the designations in the Durham Regional and Clarington Official Plans. Although, this evolution will likely take a number of years, the development of the Hancock Neighbourhood wilt increase traffic on Hancock, Courtice and Nash Roads. It should also be noted that within the Clarington Official Plan, Courtice Road is a Type "A" Arterial, while Nash Road is a Type "B" Arterial and Hancock Road is a Collector. All three of these road classifications are intended to move higher volumes of traffic than local roads. 8. CONCLUSION 8.1 The purpose of this Report is to provide a Council position before the Ontario Municipal Board as detailed in Section 3 of this Report. 8.2 Amendment No. 10 provides for fewer medium density housing units and a reduction of intensification targets. These changes are relatively minor and appropriate given the unique circumstances in this neighbourhood, including the large woodlots and the environmental sensitivity. As such, staff recommend the endorsement of proposed Amendment #10 as the municipal position before the Ontario Municipal Board. 651 REPORT NO.: PD-106-98 PAGE 17 8.3 Although, Modification No. 171 provides an exception -from the setback requirements from woodlots (Section 14.4.3 of the Clarington Official Plan), this is a unique situation and the recommendations of the various environmental studies will provide for appropriate measures in order to protect the remaining significant environmental features. These recommendations will 'be implemented through the conditions of draft approval for the related plans of subdivision. 8.4 Courtice Heights Developments concurs with the proposed resolution of Referral No. 3 and proposed Amendment No. 10 to the Clarington Official Plan.

LIE 2M1 MUNICIPALITY Of ANGT Re: The Amendment to the Official Plan for Hancock Neighbourhood rile No.: CODA 9 -00=NMNTG The Amendment for Hancock Neighbourhood should not be approved for these reasons: 1. Since our first Public Meeting we were presented with different numbers of population increases in many documents submitted by the proponent;the highest number was 4 400. A 1900 population was assigned for the whole neighbourhood and not just for the proponent's land for various reasons. The applicant doesn't take in consideration two schools with approximately 400 students,one church for 400 people and he doesn't consider at all the existing number of residents, According to Table 9-2 in the O.P.,this neighbourhood's total housing is 975 units,the applicant's number seems to be slightly different,985. The number of existing units in 3CH-north of Nash is 60; the number of existing units in 3CI-south of Nash Is 177 units. Together this makes 237 units.This number,two schools,occupying 2.4 ha each and one church on 1.56 ha area also be considered in deduction from the total number. 2. Some forest was cleared by the proponent prior to the Official Plan Amendment. Only species that are found in typical urban areas were described in his first environmental study because this assessment was done on the proponent's cleared land.Only recent studies are popping up with species of flora and faunn that are rare and we have known to be present here.Many tributaries here and also in 3B neighbourhood around Horban Pond were either buried under tons of fill or cut off;their water now is being dispersed throughout Hancock woods, onto our properties,where the resulting wetness was cause some trees that cannot withstand this condition to rot and fall,thus . making it dangerous for us to walk through. One of the tributaries is now disgracefully running through a ditch instead of its original course through the proponent's land.In spite of this degradation we know that 3C land still has over 50% environmentally sensitive areas. 3. Where is the applicant's demonstration that should be given according to the Provincial Policy Statement that there should be no impact on the ecosystem when sensitive land like groundwater recharge area is being developed? All previous and even the latest study in 1996 predict that the decline of the water table level will be 50cm.We also know that 3C has an unconfined aquifer where the water is not under pressure and that the. water table level is the same as the water table level outside of our wells. We feel that this decline is significant Studies from 1989, 1990 and even 1996 on decrease of the baseflow for Black Creek due to future urbanisation all predict that there will be no significant change, How do they know when all these studies were done daring winter time when we know that the frozen ground hinders the groundwater movement, their monitors always froze and the readings were not obtained. 4. If the applicant is so concerned about spending the money for the planned quality retaining pond and if this is the only reason for increasing the population,why not just improve the existing storm water detention facility south of Nash and change it into a quality retaining pond.It would cost less.money and existing not well functioning pond would be improved and the water quality coming from the outfall which is described in the proponent's studies as with oily, greyish appearance containing clumps of blue-green algae,being indicative of nutrient enrichment would be taken care of.This description of(lie outfall to cold stream creek is one of(lie cumulative impacts of the development in the absence of waterhed planning.With this improvement three problems could be addressed at the same time: a)less money would be spent and a not well functioning pond would be improved b) the population would not have to be increased t c) and hopefully, the applicant could withdraw from the time consuming find expensive OMB hearings. ----.� Libby and Stan Racansky cc: Isabel B.

It was our understanding that this development had not been approved; that further water shed studies needed to be done. It was also our understanding that we would be notified by mail if there was any new action brought before the council. Thia development will have a profound impact on the ecology of our neighbourhood, it will among other things: change our entire community; possibly destroy our well; bring increased traffic to our street. We were not informed that there would be a meeting to decide on the approval of this development. We were also not informed that an application for increased population density was coming before the council for approval. The last time we had contact with your department we were guaranteed that anyone living within the boundaries expected to be impacted by this development would be notified by mail of these important meetings. We have been informed that a resident on Solina Road North has covered his property with contaminated soil from the GM Battery Plant. This was apparently done without a permit or consultation with anyone. As the water apparently flows from northwest to southeast in this area, the contaminants may have already permeated the entire water table that the residents of this area rely on. We could all be consuming water full of heavy metals and hazardous chemicals . Would you confirm or deny these allegations? If this is in fact so, what are your intentions to remedy this situation? We understand that you have been informed of this situation and that nothing concrete has been done. As this could have profound health implications for our family and neighbours, it seems to us that any thinking person in a position of power within the community would have taken this very seriously and acted with decisiveness and speed.

In May we received a letter from the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority stating a concern for the wetland known as the Courtice North Wetland which lies within a block enclosed by Taunton Rd.,Hancock Rd.,.Nash Rd. and Trull's Rd.. I have attached their letter and my response to that letter for your perusal. We, informed them that we have been experiencing difficulties with drainage in the last two years due to the subdivision below Nash Rd. which was built on the flood plain previously used by the creek. I Our present concern is the destruction of these wetlands and the subsequent effect on the environment of our neighbourhood. We have lived here for almost twenty years and have seen vast changes in the community. Some have been advantageous while others have appeared to be only or private Y P igain. I would Like to know exactly who will benefit by this latest project. It will certainly not be the wildlife or vegetation in these wetlands. i I would like to see the C.L.O.C,A. study made public to Courtice residents and C.L.O.C.A.'s assessment of medium density housing on the environment and wetlands. Presently we have a high water table. Can we expect the water table to drop if sewers are installed and who will rectify the problems it creates with our wells?

Revised Proposal: The revised proposal (see Attachment No. 3) is seeking approval for a 110 unit plan of subdivision consisting of 80 single detached dwelling units, 30 semi- detached units, a 1.735 hectare park block, a 1.04 hectare school block and various residential reserve blocks. 1.5 Rezoning: From "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" to appropriate j zones in order to permit the above noted development. Staff note that the Environmental Protection (EP) zone is not intended for development with the current applications. The intent of the proposed zoning amendment with respect to the limits of the Environmental Protection (EP) zone is to confirm the boundaries through a detailed review of the proposal by Central Lake Ontario Conservation. i 1.6 Site Area: 10.828 hectares 1.7 Studies Submitted: The applicant has submitted the following studies in support of this and related development proposals. • Preliminary Hydrogeologic Assessment • Preliminary Environmental Overview Assessment • Addendum Environmental Overview Assessment • Environmental Impact Statement • Addendum to the Environmental Impact Statement • Groundwater Recharge-Discharge Assessment • Municipal Servicing Report • Revised Municipal Servicing Report • Traffic Analysis for the Hancock Neighbourhood • Noise Impact Study • Phase I Environmental Site Assessment REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 3 Phasing Document • three (3) separate Neighbourhood Design Concepts 2. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING LAND USES 2.1 The lands subject to the applications are currently used for agricultural purposes and are located in Part Lot 27, Concession 3, former Township of Darlington (see Attachment No. 4). The surrounding land uses include. North - woodlot South - large lot residential East- large lot residential, auto wrecker West- large lot residential, future Faith United Church, woodlot 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Courtice North Neighbourhood 3C When the applications were first submitted the lands were located within the Courtice North Neighbourhood 3C, as identified in the former Town of Newcastle Official Plan. (This area is now referred to as the Hancock Neighbourhood) A portion of the Neighbourhood, south of Nash Road, had been partially developed in accordance with the approved Neighbourhood Development Plan, which allocated.-a population of 900 people for the portion of the lands south of Nash Road, including the identification of the road pattern and housing types. However, a Neighbourhood Development Plan had not been prepared for that portion of the Neighbourhood located north of Nash Road. Nevertheless, the Official Plan did allocate a population of 1000 people, establish a collector road network and delineate conceptual land uses. In April 1992, the applicant submitted Applications to amend the Official Plan of the former Town of Newcastle and to complete the Neighbourhood Development Plan for Neighbourhood 3C. f REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 4 3.2 Plan of Subdivision and Rezoning Applications In June of 1992, the applicant applied to the Region of Durham for the'approval of the plan of subdivision (18T-92014). The applicant also filed the zoning amendment application (DEV 92-033) with the Municipality in June of 1992. At the Public Meeting in February 1993, Staff recommended that the applications be denied without prejudice as premature. Council's position with respect to these two development applications was to refer the applications back to Staff to be considered in the context of the Official Plan Review. Subsequent to the preparation of the Draft Clarington Official Plan, the applicant revised all of the applications. Formal revised applications for the rezoning and plan of subdivision were submitted in August of 1995, and the revised official plan amendment on September 8, 1995. ) i In April of 1996, subsequent to the adoption of the new Clarington Official Plan, Council j dealt with a large number of applications through a report which contained recommendations on the disposition of outstanding Official Plan Amendments, Neighbourhood Plan Amendments, and all related applications. The Official Plan Amendment was approved as provided for in the Clarington Official Plan. The applications for the zoning amendment and the plan of subdivision were referred back to Staff for further consideration. Due to significant revisions to the plan of subdivision, a further Public Meeting was held on July 13, 1998. At that time, the Committee was addressed by the applicant as well as Libby Racansky and Chris Conti representing Friends of the Farewell. 3.3 Clarington Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan was approved by the Region of Durham on October 31, 1996 !' save and except for referrals and deferrals. The Plan set the population for the Hancock Neighbourhood at 2800 persons. The collector road network was defined, along with the locations for two Neighbourhood Parks, a separate elementary school and a public L7 (1 i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 5 elementary school. Lands were identified for Environmental Protection Areas, a Local Central Area, and three locations for Medium Density residential development. The balance of the neighbourhood was designated for urban residential use. The applicant referred portions of the Clarington Official'Plan (Referral #3) which are outlined in Section 3.4. On June 27, 1997, the applicant filed an application to amend the Clarington Official Plan (COPA 97-007). The application proposed to increase the population within the Hancock Neighbourhood from 2800 to 2900 persons, to amend the housing targets from 975 units to 985 units, and to remove a Medium Density residential designation from the lands subject to this application. This application was heard at a Public Meeting on September 8, 1997. 3.4 Referrals to the OMB In 1995, subsequent to Council's decision to defer consideration of the'applications for plan of subdivision and rezoning until the approval of the Clarington Official Plan, the applicant appealed or referred the following to the OMB: the application to amend the Official Plan of the former Town of Newcastle OPA .92- N/007; the subject application for draft plan of subdivision 18T-92014; • the subject application for rezoning DEV 92-033; • the northerly application for draft plan of subdivision 18T-94027; • the northerly application for rezoning DEV 94-067; • portions of the new Clarington Official Plan identified as Referral #3 (see Report PD-106- 98); and, • the application to amend the Clarington Official Plan COPA 97-007 (see Report PD-106- 98). A draft zoning by-law was forwarded to the OMB on September 22, 1995 by Mr. Peter Van Loan of Fraser & Beatty, Solicitors for Courtice Heights. Two prehearing conferences have been held to address these referrals. In addition to the i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 6 Municipality and Courtice Heights Developments, which are parties to the hearing, the following persons have identified to the OMB their interest in participating at the hearing: Libby Racansky; Kerry Meydam; Linda Gasser; Mark and Heather Roper, and, Bob Kreasul The Ropers and Bob Kreasul are associated with Faith United Church and their concerns were' dealt with through Amendment No. 3 to the Official Plan. f A third prehearing has been set for September 24, 1998. Staff have been working with the applicant and the commenting agencies to achieve a resolution between the parties. i 3.5 Neighbourhood Design Plan A draft Neighbourhood Design Plan was prepared by the applicant as required by the Clarington Official Plan (see Attachment No. 5). Such a Plan is required to be approved by Staff prior to Council granting approval for draft plans of subdivision. The draft Neighbourhood Design Plan was circulated to various agencies and departments for comment. A Public Information Open House was also held on February 25, 1998, to obtain input from the neighbourhood residents and interested parties. 4. PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 4.1 In accordance with the Municipality's procedures and the requirements of the Planning; . Act, written notice of the July 13'', 1998 Public Meeting was given as follows: • Public Meeting signs for the revised application were installed on the draft plan of subdivision site; and, • written notice was circulated to all assessed property owners within 120 metres of the subject lands, and to all interested parties identified through the previous applications. 4.2 As of the writing of this report, three verbal inquiries have been received, all requesting'; i -7 -� REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 7 clarification of the proposed development and the procedures for approval. 4.3 Written notice of this Report appearing on the agenda was provided to all residents who addressed Committee at the July 13th Public Meeting and all members of the public who provided submission's. Comments about development in the area have been received from Friends of the Farewell. The following concerns have been raised: • increase in population; • increase in unit counts; • removal of forested areas; • environmental sensitivity of the neighbourhood; • depletion of groundwater, • reducing the developer's costs in order to lower density; -- • cumulative impacts of development such as flooding, erosion and water quality decline; and • watershed study request for the Farewell/Black Creek watershed area. 5. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan The subject property is designated as a Living Area, with indications of Environmentally Sensitive Areas, within the Durham Regional Official Plan. Lands designated for Living Areas shall be used primarily for housing purposes. In light of their ecological functions and scientific and educational values, Environmentally Sensitive Areas are subject to environmental impact studies to determine the degree of sensitivity, the potential cumulative effects of any proposed development and the need for mitigating measures. The proposal appears to conform with the provisions of the Durham Regional Official Plan. 5.2 Clarington Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan designates the Hancock Neighbourhood as predominantly low density Urban Residential. There are two Medium Density symbols identified north of Nash Road on the east side of Courtice Road while one Medium Density symbol located south of Nash Road has already been developed. The valley lands associated with Black Creek, and its tributaries, are designated Environmental Protection Areas. A large woodlot in the north REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 8 east corner of the neighbourhood and a smaller woodlot in the southwest quadrant have also been designated as Environmental Protection Areas. The predominant use of land within the Urban Residential designation is for low density housing purposes. The Environmental Protection Areas; and their ecological function, are to be preserved and protected from the effects of human activity. No development is permitted on these lands. Map C1 of the Clarington Official Plan shows the entire neighbourhood as falling within the Lake Iroquois Beach. Hazard lands and a small portion of tableland woodlots are shown associated with Black Creek, its tributaries, and the associated valleylands. Two tableland woodlots have also been identified in the neighbourhood. i i The Lake Iroquois Beach is a natural feature identified in recognition of its extensive forested areas and wildlife habitat, and its locally significant functions of groundwater discharge and recharge. The lands within this proposed plan of subdivision are designated Urban Residential with:a Public Elementary School and a Neighbourhood Park symbol. The site also contains half of the collector road network for the Neighbourhood. The proposal conforms with the provisions of the Clarington Official Plan, as amended by Amendment No. 10, forwarded by Report PD-106-98 on this agenda. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT 6.1 Assessment of Groundwater Recharge and Discharge Hancock Neighbourhood is underlain by three groundwater flow zones — the shalloxv overburden flow zone, the deeper overburden flow zone, and the bedrock flow zone. The shallow overburden flow zone, which extends to a depth of 6 metres, is characterized by a A 7 A REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 9 high water table which lies approximately 1 metre below the surface. Groundwater from this zone is discharged seasonally to an intermittent tributary which flows through the Neighbourhood. The deeper (intermediate) overburden flow zone extends to a depth of approximately 40 metres. The report indicates that groundwater in this zone is recharged primarily from the Oak Ridges Moraine, and contributes baseflow to the main branch of Black Creek. The wells within and adjacent to the Neighbourhood receive most of their water supply from the intermediate aquifer. The bedrock flow zone is recharged primarily by groundwater flow from the Oak Ridges Moraine. Most of the flow in this zone discharges to Lake Ontario and does not provide significant baseflow contribution to Black Creek. There are 124 wells within and adjacent to the Hancock Neighbourhood — 95 are bored wells with an average depth of 5.6 m, while the balance are drilled to an average depth of 22 m. Water yield from all wells is good, although a number of the bored wells.experience seasonal shortages. Due to the presence of relatively impermeable deposits in the Hancock Neighbourhood,'the groundwater contribution from the Neighbourhood is negligible in comparison to the groundwater recharge which occurs on more permeable soils to the north. The report concludes that the proposed developments will have negligible impact on baseflow conditions in Black Creek and on the aquifer yields supplying domestic water wells. However, the report recommends a number of mitigative measures to offset the impact of incremental development within the Black Creek watershed. These measures include discharging precipitation collected on roofs to grassed surfaces, minimizing the compaction of fill, the installation of infiltration trenches along rear lot lines, and the installation of seepage barriers in service trenches to prevent piping of groundwater. / -7C i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 10 6.2 Environmental Impact Report (EcoPlans Limited) The vegetation communities found in the Hancock Neighbourhood generally reflect the presence of the high water table which underlies most of the neighbourhood, as well as the effects of human use. The woodlots on the two land parcels owned by Courtice Heights were cleared prior to the submission of the development applications. Two significant vegetation communities are found in the Neighbourhood — the 15 hectare broadleaf woodlot in the northeast corner, and the old field succession/wet meadow complex to the southwest of the woodlot. Broadleaf Woodlot This woodlot is. the most significant vegetative feature in the Neighbourhood. It is characterized by mature mixed hardwoods and successional species of varying ages and sizes, and a fairly diverse and intact native ground flora. The woodlot provides habitat for a variety of forest interior birds and also provides a linkage function between adjacent off-site woodland blocks to the north and east, and the core area of the Trulls Woods to the west. Portions of the woodlot have been disturbed by previous logging practices. The woodland edge has been stressed as the result of land clearing on the adjacent parcels owned by Courtice Heights Developments. A well-developed understorey which has regenerated along the new edge acts as a buffer to the woodland interior. The report indicates urban development on adjacent lands should not have a significant impact on the hydrology of the woodland since the proposed subdivision will be located down-gradient, although the water table may be reduced somewhat at the woodland. Other potential impacts on the woodland block we're noted, including construction impacts to woodland edge trees, increased predation pressure on sensitive wildlife by domestic pet and urban-tolerant wildlife species, increased pedestrian access to the woodland and the 'annexation" of woodlot edges into rear lot areas. A number of measures are recommended to maintain the overall integrity and linkage REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 11 functions of the woodlot. These include the installation of fencing along the dripline (i.e. property line) of the woodland edge prior to site grading to minimize construction impacts and to limit access to the woodlot. The grading of rear lots should maintain the pre- development drainage regime within the woodland edge, and grade changes along the woodlot edge should'be minimized to avoid damage to roots. Other recommended measures include the installation of signage and the implementation of an environmental stewardship program to educate future residents on maintenance of woodlot values. Old Field Succession/Wet Meadow Complex This community, which is associated with a seasonally high water table, groundwater seepage and an intermittent tributary, consists of early successional species growing on poorly j4- ned soils. This habitat type is uncommon in this area, and four regionally uncommon plant i species which prefer this habitat were identified on this site. This community also provides habitat for a typical variety of common edge and generalist wildlife species. The retention and maintenance of a seasonal wet meadow habitat in an urban setting can be difficult if the water table is lowered. However, the implementation of mitigation measures recommended by the hydrogeological consultant should ensure that the moisture regime after the development of the proposed subdivision should be suitable for the maintenance of the wet meadow complex. The trampling and picking of flowers by residents and the invasion of aggressive woody species will also adversely affect the wet meadow complex. Even without urban development, the wet meadow would eventually cease to exist as the result of succession to woody species. As well, the ultimate development scheme for the Neighbourhood as recommended by the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan indicates that the majority of this complex will be removed by a north-south collector road and residential development. It is important to note that the property on which this vegetative complex is located is not 477 REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 12 owned by Courtice Heights Developments, and is not subject to the current development proposals. The environmental impacts report recommends that a permanent chain-link fence' be installed around the property to control access. Specific measures to address the; maintenance of this complex can be considered at such time as a development proposal is submitted for these properties. These measures could include the salvage of the topsoil/seedbank and re-seeding in suitable municipally owned sites, such as the lands adjacent to the intermittent tributary or the future storm water management pond. Impact on Aquatic Habitat in Black Creek Based on the conclusions of the hydrogeological report, the development of the Hancock Neighbourhood is not expected to significantly affect the baseflow conditions which maintain potential fish habitat conditions in Black Creek. Water temperature monitoring -in the adjacent stretch of Black Creek has indicated conditions too warm for brook or brown trout, but generally suitable for rainbow trout. The report concluded that rehabilitation efforts along the creek, including establishment of tree cover, will not sufficiently'.reduce the summer f temperature regime to'permit the return of resident brook trout populations. 6.3 CLOC Comments on Reports CLOC noted that, prior to final approval of the subdivision plans, the proponent should prepare detailed design and implementation plans for the proposed measures intended to mitigate the impact of the two proposed subdivisions on the environmentally sensitive/significant vegetation units and wildlife habitats. The adjacent reach of Black Creek which will receive future urban runoff flows from the subject site exhibits characteristic 'cool water' conditions, supporting both warm and coldwater fish species. CLOC noted that the storm water management plan for the proposed developments will need to include measures to regulate the thermal impact of storm water discharge to Black Creek in addition to more typical quality and quantity controls. . -7n REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 13 The development site currently contributes to the flow regime of a small drain traversing numerous private properties downstream. This drainage feeds ponds and assists in the maintenance of off-site wet meadows and other environmentally sensitive features. CLOC indicated that flows through this minor tributary must be maintained until such time as mitigation measures aimed at preserving some of these attributes can be implemented. The Conditions of Draft Approval for the proposed subdivisions recommended by CLOC are outlined in Section 7.7 of this Report. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS 7.1 The application was circulated to various departments and agencies for comment. C6VA rents of no objection were received from the Durham Regional Health Department, the'Clarington Community Services Department, Bell Canada, and Canada Post. 7.2 Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation Comments The Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation had confirmed that there is low potential for the discovery of archaeological remains and that an archaeological assessment is not required. 7.3 Ministry of Transportation Comments The Ministry of Transportation has no objection to approval of the plan of subdivision as the technically preferred route for the Oshawa/Clarington Freeway Link does not physically impact on the site. 7.4 Region of Durham Comments The Durham Regional Planning Department have advised that they will not be forwarding comments to the Municipality as the applications have been referred to the OMB. Their comments will be provided directly to the OMB through direct testimony. :67.9 REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 14 The Regional Works Department has advised that they have no objection to the further processing of proposals and provided the following comments directly to the OMB along with their conditions of draft approval: • Municipal water can be provided through the extension of the existing 400 mm watermain on Nash Road (at Fewster Street) to the east limit of the plan. A 300 mm watermain will be required on Street "A"from Nash Road to the north limit of Street "A"; • A secondary watermain feed is recommended for the development. This secondary feed can be provided via two methods. The first method involves extending the 400 mm watermain on Nash Road to Hancock Road with a 200 mm watermain on Hancock Road from Nash Road to Street"B". The alternative would be to extend the 300 mm watermain on proposed Street "A", on easements to be acquired by the applicant, and connect tathe proposed plan of subdivision 18T-94027; • Municipal sanitary sewers are available from the 375 mm sub-trunk sewer`situat6d on Nash Road to Fewster Street. The sewer must be extended easterly along Nash Road to Street "A" and then northerly on Street"A"; • the Municipality of Clarington is requested to acquire a 3.048 metre widening along the Nash Road frontage. 7.5 Clarington Fire Department Comments The Clarington Fire Department has noted that the area is serviced by part-time firefighters after 6:00 pm daily. At present population levels their service is strained. They note that all required services should be in place before any future growth is approved in Courtice. They have offered no objection but request that any future residents be informed that this area will be served by part-time Staff. This concern.will be addressed through any conditions of draft plan of subdivision approval. 7.6 Clarington Public Works Department Comments The Clarington Public Works Department provided extensive comments and conditions of draft approval including the following major remarks: • the applicant will be responsible for the implementation of all traffic related improvements i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 15 deemed necessary by the Director of Public Works as indicated by the Hancock Neighbourhood Plan Site Traffic Analysis. The timing and implementation of traffic control measures shall be determined by the Director of Public Works. • a temporary intersection configuration will be required at the intersection of Streets "A" and "B" until such- time as the lands to the north of this subdivision develop. Given the lack of a defined' time frame for the extension of Street "A" to the north, the temporary intersection must be constructed to a full urban standard. • the applicant will be required to make payments to the Municipality in the amounts stated in a front ending agreement between the Municipality and Macourtice Developments Inc. The payment is required as a result of the over-sizing of storm sewers associated with Registered Plans 40M-1675 and 40M-1693 which enable the development of these lands to proceed. The applicant will also be required to purchase Block 77 in Registered Plan 40M-1675 for the construction of storm water management works for the watershed j�to reimburse the Municipality if it acquires it under the current option agreement with Macourtice Developments Inc. • the phasing of this plan of subdivision will be dependent upon the construction of the storm water management works for this watershed, external servicing and the construction and funding of the external road improvements. • the location of the future trunk sanitary sewer servicing lands situated north of the Hancock Neighbourhood must be finalized and the approved location must not adversely impact upon the roads, parks or parkettes located within the Hancock Neighbourhood. • the applicant will be required to provide a water supply contingency plan detailing the manner in which water will be supplied to local residents in the event of an impact upon the groundwater table during servicing. • the applicant will be responsible to construct, or contribute toward, downstream erosion protection works which, in the opinion of the Director of Public Works, are caused or aggravated by this development. • the development cannot proceed until such time as the Municipality has approved the expenditure of funds for: i) the provision of roads, street lighting and sidewalk improvements along Nash and Hancock Roads; and ii) the construction of the Neighbourhood Park. 7.7 CLOC Comments CLOC requested that prior to any on-site grading, or construction, or final approval of the plan i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 16 of subdivision, the owner shall submit to, and obtain approval from CLOC for reports describing the following: • the intended means of conveying storm water flow from the site; • the anticipated impact of the development on water quality; and • the means whereby erosion and sedimentation and their effects will be minimized on the site during and after construction, in accordance with provincial guidelines. In addition, prior to final approval of the plan, or any site alteration of the property, the applicant shall submit and obtain approval of: • forest edge management plans for lots 13 to 70; • detailed design and location plans of all groundwater infiltration measures to be incorporated on the sites; and, • an environmental construction management plan which details the construction t+ming and specification for all environmental impact mitigation measures. Finally, CLOC requests that the subdivision agreement between the applicant and the Municipality shall contain the following conditions: • the owner agrees to develop the plan in accordance with the plans,,reports and recommendations as required in the foregoing; and, • prior to any construction occurring on lots 13 to 70 the owner agrees to install fencing along the east property limits of lots 13 to 39, and the north property limits of lots 40 to 70. 7.9 Separate School Board Comments The Peterborough h Victoria N g orthumberland and Clarin gton Roman Catholic Separate School Board requests that sidewalks be provided along all internal streets to accommodate children walking to the separate elementary school south of Nash Road. They also request that traffic control measures be provided to ensure safe pedestrian movement from the development north of Nash Road to the school site. Signalization and crosswalks should be located at the intersection of Nash Road and Street "A". 7.10 Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board Comments The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board is concerned that school site is not fully contained within the limits of the plan of subdivision. Although the general location, E, R � I 1 REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 17 configuration and size of the site is acceptable, the Board notes that necessary arrangements will need to be undertaken to deliver the entire site to the Board. The Board would also require all services to be provided to the lot line, perimeter fencing and sidewalks on all roads, including Nash Road. 8. STAFF COMMENTS 8.1 In order to discuss issues related to the proposal, the comments have been organized on the basis of the following major topics: • environmental issues neighbourhood design plan • schools and parks • density • access to Faith United Church • parking issues • watershed study 8.2 Environmental Issues Concern has been expressed by area residents regarding the potential impact of the proposed subdivisions on sensitive environmental features in the Hancock Neighbourhood and the aquatic habitat in Black Creek, as well as water supply to area wells. In particular, these concerns have focused on the possible lowering of the water table as a result of urban development and more direct impacts to on-site vegetation communities as a result of construction activities and the activities of future residents. A number of reports have been submitted by the proponent to identify the anticipated nature and level of these impacts and to recommend measures to mitigate such impacts. Many of the proposed mitigation measures are straightforward and easily implementable, such as the installation of fencing to control access. However, other measures such as infiltration trenches and measures to protect against thermal impacts on water quality, require detailed design work. As noted by CLOC, the proponent must prepare detailed design and implementation plans for each of the proposed mitigation measures to ensure that they are not only effective, but in fact, they are implemented in the manner intended. In this regard, Staff REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 18 concur with CLOC's suggestion that the proponent develop an Environmental Construction Management Plan, to the satisfaction of CLOC and the Municipality. This Plan would specify' how each of the proposed mitigation measures would be implemented, including project management, site supervision and follow-up monitoring. 8.3 Neighbourhood Design Plan The Clarington Official Plan requires the preparation of a Neighbourhood Design Plan prior tc the consideration of any plan of subdivision. The Clarington Official Plan states that "a neighbourhood design plan is a visual interpretation of the future development of an entire, neighbourhood". They are utilized by Staff in reviewing subdivision applications for the specific neighbourhood. They will also illustrate, for perspective purchasers, the land-uses proposed in the balance of the neighbourhood. �I The Plans are intended to detail the following: • all road alignments within a neighbourhood, including right-of-way widths and required widenings; • any walking or cycling trail systems, as well as future transit routes; • the location of school, park and open space blocks, including storm water) management blocks; and, • lotting patterns and densities. An information report was presented to Council on October 21, 1996, advising of the applicant's submission of an application to approve the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan. As a result of consultation with Staff, and the circulation and subsequent revision of the draft plans of subdivision within the neighbourhood, the Neighbourhood Design Plan was revised (Attachment No.5) and was recently endorsed by Staff. The Neighbourhood Design Plan for the Hancock Neighbourhood includes the following components: • a context map; • a constraints and opportunities map; • a land use plan; • a phasing plan; • a transportation plan; and • an open space and parks master plan. BRA i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 19 A copy of the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan is available for inspection at the Planning and Development Department during normal office hours. It should also be noted that Staff's endorsement of the Neighbourhood Design Plan does not constitute any form of approval under the Planning Act and does not impact upon the rights of the residents before the OMB. 8.4 School and Park Blocks The Clarington Official Plan identifies both a Public Elementary School and a Neighbourhood Park within the Hancock Neighbourhood. The original submission by the applicant did not contain a School Block and had very little parkland. As a result of comments received through the circulation process, and the negotiations with Staff relative to all referral issues, the applicant has included a Block to partially accommodate a Public Elementary School and has also increased the parkland dedication to 1.735 hectares. As noted in Section 7.10 of this Report, the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board requires the school site to be located entirely within the limits of this draft,plan of subdivision. When negotiating the purchase of lands for school purposes, the Board prefers to enter into negotiations with a single property owner. As a result, the Public School Board has not supported the proposed plan of subdivision. However, the position of the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board may be too onerous in that the plan of subdivision is irregularly shaped and only 10.828 hectares in size. Since the plan of subdivision has been referred to the OMB, any concern from the School Board should be directed to the OMB. While the developer will dedicate the Park Block to the Municipality, the subdivision agreement will provide for the Municipality ' to compensate the applicant for any overdedication. Furthermore, prior to final approval, funds for the construction of the Neighbourhood Park, which abuts the school site to the north, must be approved for the development to proceed. i n r' i REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 20 8.5 Density Issues These applications for draft plan of subdivision and rezoning were originally filed in 1992. In the same year the applicant also filed for an Official Plan Amendment to the former Town of Newcastle Official Plan. The population figure set under the former Official Plan was 1900 persons in total for the entire neighbourhood. The applicant sought to change this population target to 4585 persons. i The issue of density has been the primary reason for the series of revisions to the original application. The review and subsequent approval of the Clarington Official Plan resulted in a population increase from 1900 persons to 2800. While this is an increase over the original Official Plan, the original densities were not feasible under current conditions. However, in recognition of the environmental constraints in this neighbourhood, Staff proposed-using a lower density factor in the Hancock Neighbourhood than in other parts of Courtice. The lower density was, in part, to provide larger lot sizes which would incorporate existing vegetation features and allow for greater infiltration of storm water. The. applicant and Staff have agreed on a target of 975 residential units and 2900 persons (up 100 from the proposed Official Plan). The greater increase in persons is due to the use of more single detached units which yield a greater population per unit than the medium density units. 8.6 Street Access to Faith United Church and other abutting lands In order to ensure that the access was provided to allow for the development of the surplus lands owned by Faith United Church and another landowner on Nash Road, Staff required that Street E be incorporated into the plan of subdivision. The Neighbourhood Design Plan provides for a cul-de-sac in this location to be constructed within the first phase of the Neighbourhood. 8.7 Parking Issues A concern has been raised by Council on the issue of on-street parking within urban neighbourhoods. It is noted that, the applicant has submitted a parking plan, prepared by i • I REPORT NO.: PD-107-98 PAGE 21 G.M. Sernas and Associates, for the Clarington Public Works Department review and comment. The Public Works Department noted the parking plan provides 91 on-street parking spaces which greatly exceeds the minimum requirement of 28 on-street parking spaces as per the guidelines of the Municipality with respect to the provision of on-street parking. It is also important to note that the subdivision is developing at a much lower density than other Neighbourhoods, as detailed in Section 8.5 of this Report. This lower density and the absence of townhouses do not appear to cause any future on-street parking problems. i i 8.8 Watershed.Study In April of 1998, the Friends of the Farewell made submissions to Regional and Clarington Councils regarding the lack of watershed study for this Neighbourhood. The lack of a watershed study.for this Neighbourhood is addressed in Section 7.6 of Report PD-106-98 on this agenda. .9. CONCLUSION 9.1 In conclusion, Staff recommend that Report PD-107-98 be endorsed as the Municipality's position with respect to the revised draft plan of subdivision and zoning by-law amendment, scheduled for an OMB pre-hearing to commence on September 24, 1998. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P., R.P.P. W.H. Stockwell, Director of Planning & Development Chief Administrative Officer.

APPLICATION DETAILS 1.1 Owners: Claret Investments Limited and Uvalde Investment Company 1.2 Applicant: Claret Investments Limited and Uvalde Investment Company, carrying on business as Courtice Heights Developments 1.3 Agent: WDM Consultants 1.4 Subdivision: Original Proposal: Originally sought approval for a 190 unit plan of subdivision consisting of 34 single detached dwelling units, 128 semi-detached units, 28 townhouse units and various residential reserve blocks. j Revised Proposal: The revised proposal (see Attachment No. 1) is seeking approval for a 151 unit plan of subdivision consisting of 79 single detached dwelling units, 72 semi- detached units and a 0.1 hectare parkette. 1.5 Rezoning: From "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" to appropriate zones in order to permit the above noted development. Staff note that the Environmental Protection (EP) zone is not intended for development with the current applications. The intent of the proposed zoning amendment with respect to the limits of the Environmental Protection (EP) zone is to confirm the boundaries through a detailed review of the proposal by Central Lake Ontario Conservation (CLOC). 1.6 Site Area: 9.355 hectares 1.7 Studies Submitted: The applicant has submitted the following studies in support of this and related development proposals. • Retail Demand & Impact Study • Preliminary Hydrogeologic Assessment • Preliminary Environmental Overview Assessment • Addendum Environmental Overview Assessment • Environmental Impact Statement • Addendum to the Environmental Impact Statement • Groundwater Recharge-Discharge Assessment • Municipal Servicing Report • Revised Municipal Servicing Report • Traffic Analysis for the Hancock Neighbourhood 699008 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 3 • Noise Impact Study • Phase I Environmental Site Assessment • Phasing Document • three (3)separate Neighbourhood Design Concepts 2. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING LAND USES 2.1 The lands subject to the applications are currently used for agricultural purposes and., are located in Part Lot 28, Concession 3, former Township of Darlington (see Attachment No. 2). The surrounding land uses include. North - woodlot; open space South - large lot residential East - woodlot West - large lot residential 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Courtice North Neighbourhood 3C When the applications were first submitted, the lands were located within the Courtice North Neighbourhood 3C, as identified in the former Town of Newcastle Official Plan. (This area is now referred to as the Hancock Neighbourhood) A portion of the Neighbourhood, south of Nash Road, had been partially developed in accordance with the approved Neighbourhood Development Plan, which allocated a population of 900 people for the portion of the lands south of Nash Road, including the identification of the road pattern and housing types. However, a Neighbourhood Development Plan had not been prepared for that portion of the Neighbourhood located north of Nash Road. Nevertheless, the former Official Plan died allocate a population of 1000 people, established a collector road network, and delineated a conceptual land uses. In April, 1992 the applicant submitted applications to amend the Official Plan of the former Town of Newcastle and to complete the Neighbourhood Development Plan for Neighbourhood 3C. 699009 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 4 3.2 Plan of Subdivision and Rezoning Applications In December of 1994, the applicant applied to the Region of Durham for the approval of the plan of subdivision (18T-94027). The applicant also filed the zoning amendment application (DEV94-067) with the Municipality in December of 1994. Council's position with respect to these two development applications was to refer the application back to Staff to be considered in the context of the Official Plan Review. Subsequent to the preparation of the Draft Clarington Official Plan, the applicant revised all of the applications. Formal revised applications for the rezoning and plan of subdivision were submitted in August of 1995, and the revised official plan amendment on September 8, 1995. In April of 1996, subsequent to the adoption of the new Clarington Official Plan, Council dealt with a large number of applications through a report which recommended on the disposition of outstanding Official Plan Amendments, Neighbourhood Plan Amendments, and all related applications. The Official Plan Amendment was approved as provided for in the Clarington Official Plan. The Neighbourhood Plan Amendment application was closed as the Courtice North Neighbourhood Plan had been repealed by Council on January 29, 1996. The applications for the zoning amendment and the plan of subdivision were referred back to staff for further consideration. Due to significant revisions to the plan of subdivision, a further Public Meeting was held on July 13, 1998. At that time, the Committee was addressed by the applicant as well as Libby Racansky and Chris Conti representing Friends of the Farewell. 3.3 Clarington Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan was approved by the Region of Durham on October 31, 1996 save and except for referrals and deferrals. The Plan set the population for the Hancock Neighbourhood at 2800 persons. The collector road network was defined, along with the locations for two Neighbourhood Parks, a separate elementary school and a public 699010 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 5 elementary school. Lands were identified for Environmental Protection Areas, a Local Central Area, and three locations for Medium Density residential development. The balance of the neighbourhood was designated for urban residential use. The applicant referred portions of the Clarington Official Plan (Referral #3) as outlined in Section 3.4 below. On June 27, 1997, the applicant filed an application to amend the Clarington Official Plan (COPA 97-007). The application proposed to increase the population within the Hancock Neighbourhood from 2800 to 2900 persons, to amend the housing targets from 975 units to 985 units, and to remove a Medium Density residential designation from the lands subject to this application. This application was heard at a Public Meeting on September 8, 1997. 3.4 Referrals to the OMB In 1995, subsequent to Council's decision to defer consideration of the application for plan of subdivision and rezoning until the approval of the Clarington Official Plan, the applicant appealed or referred the following to the OMB: • the application to amend the Official Plan of the former Town of Newcastle; • the subject application for draft plan of subdivision 18T-94027; • the subject application for rezoning DEV 94-067; • the southerly application for draft plan of subdivision 18T-92014; and, • the southerly application for rezoning DEV 92-033; • portions of the new Clarington Official Plan identified as Referral #3 (see Report PD-106- 98); and, • the application to amend the Clarington Official Plan (COPA 97-007 (see Report PD-106- 98). A draft zoning by-law was forwarded to the OMB on September 12, 1995 by Mr. Peter Van Loan of Fraser & Beatty, solicitors for Courtice Heights. Two prehearing conferences have been held to address these referrals. In addition to the Municipality and Courtice Heights Developments, which are parties to the hearing, the (, QQn11 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 6 following persons have identified to the Board their interest in participating at the hearing: Libby Racansky; Kerry Meydam; Linda Gasser; Mark and Heather Roper; and, Bob Kreasul. The Ropers and Bob Kreasul are associated with Faith United Church and their concerns were dealt with through Amendment No. 3 to the Official Plan. A third prehearing has been set for September 24, 1998. Staff have been working with the applicant and the commenting agencies to achieve a resolution between the parties. 3.5 Neighbourhood Design Plan A draft Neighbourhood Design Plan was prepared by the applicant as required by the Clarington Official Plan (see Attachment'No. 5). Such a Plan is required to be approved prior to Council granting approval for draft plans of subdivision. The draft Neighbourhood Design Plan was circulated to various agencies and departments for comment. A Public Information i Open House was also held on February 25, 1998, to obtain input from the neighbourhood residents and interested parties. 4. PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 4.1 In accordance with the Municipality's procedures and the requirements of the Planning Act, written notice of the July 13, 1998 Public Meeting was given as follows: • Public Meeting signs for the revised application were installed on the lands subject to draft plan of subdivision; and • written notice was circulated to all assessed property owners within 120 metres of the subject lands, and to all interested parties identified through the previous applications. 4.2 As of the writing of this report, three verbal inquiries have been received, all requesting clarification of the proposed development and the procedures for approval. z non i ) REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 7 4.3 Written notice of this Report appearing on the agenda was provided to all residents who addressed Committee at the July 13, 1998 Public Meeting and all members of the public who provided submissions. Comments about development in the area, have been received from Friends of the Farewell. The following concerns have been raised: • increase in population; • increase in unit counts; • removal of forested areas; • environmental sensitivity of the neighbourhood; • depletion of groundwater; • reducing the developer's costs in order to lower density; • cumulative impacts of development such as flooding, erosion and water quality decline; and, • watershed study request for the Farewell/Black Creek watershed area. 5. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan The subject property is designated as a Living Area, with indications of Environmentally Sensitive Areas, within the Durham Regional Official Plan. Lands designated for Living Areas shall be used primarily for housing purposes. In light of their ecological functions and jscientific and educational values, Environmentally Sensitive Areas are subject to environmental impact studies to determine the degree of sensitivity, the potential cumulative effects of any proposed development and the need for mitigating measures. The proposal appears to conform with the provisions of the Durham Regional Official Plan. 5.2 Clarington Official Plan The Clarington Official Plan designates the Hancock Neighbourhood as predominantly low density Urban Residential. There are two Medium Density symbols identified north of Nash Road on the east side of Courtice Road while one Medium Density symbol located south of Nash Road has already been developed. The valley lands associated with Black Creek, and its tributaries, are designated Environmental Protection Areas. A large woodlot in the north east corner of the neighbourhood and a smaller woodlot in the southwest quadrant have also been designated as Environmental Protection Areas. h99n13 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 8 The predominant use within the Urban Residential designation is for low density housing purposes. The Environmental Protection Areas, and their ecological function, are to be preserved and protected from the effects of human activity. No development is permitted on these lands. Map Cl of the Clarirgton Official Plan shows the entire neighbourhood as falling within the Lake Iroquois Beach. Hazard lands and a small portion of tableland woodlots are shown associated with Black Creek, its tributaries, and the associated valleylands. Tableland Woodlots have also been identified in the northeast corner of the neighbourhood, in the southwest quadrant, and at the eastern boundary midway up Hancock Road. i The Lake Iroquois Beach is identified in recognition of its extensive forested areas and wildlife habitat, and its locally significant functions of groundwater discharge and recharge. This proposed plan of subdivision is designated Urban Residential with a Medium Density symbol. The site also contains part of the collector road network for the Neighbourhood. The proposal conforms with provisions of the Clarington Official Plan, as amended by Amendment No. 10, forwarded by Report PD-106-98, on this agenda. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL REPORTS 6.1 Assessment of Groundwater Recharge and Discharge Hancock Neighbourhood is underlain by three groundwater flow zones — the shallow overburden flow zone, the deeper overburden flow zone, and the bedrock flow zone. The shallow overburden flow zone, which extends to a depth of 6 metres, is characterized by a high water table which lies approximately 1 metre below the surface. Groundwater from this zone is discharged seasonally to an intermittent tributary which flows through the Neighbourhood. The report indicates that groundwater flow in the shallow zone does not contribute directly to the maintenance of baseflow to Black Creek. 699014 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 9 The deeper (intermediate) overburden flow zone extends to a depth of approximately 40 metres. The report indicates that groundwater in this zone is recharged primarily from the Oak Ridges Moraine, and contributes baseflow to the main branch of Black Creek. The wells within and adjacent to the Neighbourhood receive most of their water supply from the intermediate aquifer. The bedrock flow zone is recharged primarily by groundwater flow from the Oak Ridges Moraine. Most of the flow in this zone discharges to Lake Ontario and does not provide significant baseflow contribution to Black Creek. There are 124 wells within and adjacent to the Hancock Neighbourhood — 95 are bored wells with an average depth of 5.6 m, while the balance are drilled to an average depth of 22 m. Water yield from all wells is good, although a number of the bored wells experience seasonal shortages. Due to the presence of relatively impermeable deposits on Hancock Neighbourhood, the groundwater contribution from the Neighbourhood is negligible in comparison to the groundwater recharge which occurs on more permeable soils to the north. The report concludes that the proposed developments will have negligible impact on baseflow conditions in Black Creek and on the aquifer yields supplying domestic water wells. However, the report recommends a number of mitigative measures to offset the impact of incremental development within the Black Creek watershed. These measures include discharging precipitation collected on roofs to grassed surfaces, minimizing the compaction of fill, the installation of infiltration trenches along rear lot lines, and the installation of seepage barriers in service trenches to prevent piping of groundwater. 6.2 Environmental Impact Report (EcoPlans Limited) The vegetation communities found in Hancock Neighbourhood generally reflect the presence of the high water table which underlies most of the neighbourhood, as well as the effects of human use. The woodlots on the two land parcels owned by Courtice Heights were cleared prior to the submission of the development applications. Two significant 699015 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 10 vegetation communities are found in the Neighbourhood — the 15 hectare broadleaf woodlot in the northeast corner, and the old field succession/wet meadow complex to the southwest of the woodlot. Broadleaf Woodlot This woodlot is the most significant vegetative feature in the Neighbourhood. ­It is characterized by mature mixed hardwoods and successional species of varying ages and sized, and a fairly diverse and intact native ground flora. The woodlot provides habitat for a variety of forest interior birds and also provides a linkage function between adjacent off-site woodland blocks to the north and east, and the core area of the Trulls Woods to the west. Portions of the woodlot have been disturbed by previous logging practices. The woodland edge has been stressed as the result of land clearing activities on the adjacent parcels owned by Courtice Heights Developments. A well-developed understorey which has regenerated along the edge acts as a buffer to the woodland interior. i The report indicates that urban development on adjacent lands should not have a significant impact on the hydrology of the woodland since the proposed subdivision will be located down-gradient, although the water table may be reduced somewhat at the woodland. Other potential impacts on the woodland block were noted, including construction impacts to woodland edge trees, increased predation pressure on sensitive wildlife by domestic pet and - urban-tolerant wildlife species, increased pedestrian access to the woodland and the "annexation" of woodlot edges into rear lot areas. A number of measures are recommended to maintain the overall integrity and linkage functions of the woodlot. These include the installation of fencing along the dripline (i.e. property line) of the woodland edge prior to site grading to minimize construction impacts and to limit access to the woodlot. The grading of rear lots should maintain the pre- development drainage regime within the woodland edge, and grade changes along the woodlot edge should be minimized to avoid damage to roots. Other recommended measures include the installation of signage and the implementation of an environmental 699016 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 11 stewardship program to educate future residents on maintenance of woodlot values. Old Field Succession/Wet Meadow Complex This community, which is associated with a seasonally high water table, groundwater seepage and an intermittent tributary, consists of early successional species growing on poorly drained soils. This habitat type is uncommon in this area, and four regionally uncommon plant species which prefer this habitat were identified on this site. This community also provides habitat for a typical variety of common edge and generalist wildlife species. The retention and maintenance of ephemeral wet meadow habitat in an urban setting can be difficult if the water table is lowered. However, the implementation of mitigation measures recommended by the hydrogeological consultant should ensure that the moisture regime after the development of the proposed subdivision should be suitable for the maintenance of the wet meadow complex. j The trampling and picking of flowers by residents and the invasion of aggressive woody species will also adversely affect the wet meadow complex. Even without urban development, the wet meadow would eventually cease to exist as the result of succession to woody species. As well, the ultimate development scheme for the Neighbourhood as recommended by the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan indicates that the majority of this community will be removed by a north-south collector road and residential development. It is important to note that the property on which this vegetative complex is located is located is not owned by Courtice Heights Developments, and is not subject to the current development proposals. The environmental impacts report recommends that a permanent chain-link fence be installed around the property to control access. Specific measures to address the maintenance of this community can be considered at such time as a development proposal is submitted for these properties. These measures could include the 4QQn17 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 12 salvage of the topsoil/seedbank and re-seeding in suitable municipally owned sites, such as the lands adjacent to the intermittent tributary or the future storm water management pond. Impact on Aquatic Habitat in Black Creek Based on the conclusions of the hydrogeological report, the development of the Hancock Neighbourhood is not expected to significantly affect the baseflow conditions which maintain potential fish habitat conditions in Black Creek. Water temperature monitoring in the adjacent stretch of Black Creek has indicated conditions too warm for brook or brown trout, but generally suitable for rainbow trout. The report concluded that rehabilitation efforts along the creek, including establishment of riparian cover, will not sufficiently reduce the summer temperature regime to permit the return of resident brook trout populations. 6.3 CLOC Comments on Reports CLOC noted that, prior to final approval of the subdivision plans, the proponent should prepare detailed design and implementation plans for the proposed measures intended to mitigate the impact of the two proposed subdivisions on the environmentally sensitive/significant vegetation units and wildlife habitats. The adjacent reach of Black Creek which will receive future urban runoff flows from the subject site exhibits characteristic 'cool water' conditions, supporting both warm and- coldwater fish species. CLOC noted that the storm water management plan for the proposed developments will need to include measures to regulate the thermal impact of storm water discharge to Black Creek in addition to more typical quality and quantity controls. The development site currently contributes to the flow regime of a small drain traversing numerous private properties downstream. This drainage feeds ponds and assists in the maintenance of off-site wet meadows and other environmentally sensitive features. CLOC indicated that flows through this minor tributary must be maintained until such time as mitigation measures aimed at preserving some of these attributes can be implemented. 699018 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 13 The Conditions of Draft Approval for the proposed subdivision recommended by CLOC are outlined in Section 7.7 of this Report. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS 7.1 The application was circulated to various departments and agencies for comment. Comments of no objection were received from the Durham Regional Health Department, the Clarington Community Services Department, Bell Canada, and Canada Post. 7.2 Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation Comments The Ministry of Citizenship, Culture and Recreation had confirmed that the subdivision had been identified as having a high potential for the discovery of archaeological remains. The Ministry requested that the applicant provide an archaeological assessment of the site, which was conducted and submitted in 1995. No remains were found and the Ministry is now satisfied that concerns for cultural heritage resources have been met. 7.3 Ministry of Transportation Comments The Ministry of Transportation has no objection to approval of the plan of subdivision as the technically preferred route for the Oshawa/Clarington freeway Link does not physically impact on the site. 7.4 Region of Durham Comments The Durham Regional Planning Department have advised that they will not be forwarding comments to the Municipality as the applications have been referred to the OMB. Their comments will be provided directly to the OMB through direct testimony. The Regional Works Department considers the draft plan of subdivision to be non-sequential with respect to the provision of regional sanitary sewer and water services. However, they have no objection to the further processing of the application. The following comments were provided to the OMB along with a list of the conditions of draft approval: 699019 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 14 • Municipal water supply will require an extension of a 300 mm watermain on Courtice Road from Nash Road to approximately 800 metres north of Nash. A second watermain feed will be required from Nash Road, through the south plan of subdivision (18T- 92014), and on easements to be obtained by the applicant, to the south limit of plan 18T- 94027. • The proposed development is on a two way sanitary sewage drainage area. The lands can drain south,.along Courtice Road, then westerly through easements, which must be obtained, to the sanitary sub-trunk sewer situated at Trulls Road and Nash Road. Alternatively, they can drain south through acquired easements, to the sub-trunk sewer located on Nash Road at Fewster Street. • The revised plan shows a permanent access to Courtice Road from Street A. A 10m x 5m sight triangle is required at this intersection. 7.5 Clarington Fire Department Comments The Clarington Fire Department has noted that the area is serviced by part-time firefighters after 6:00 pm daily. At present population levels their service is strained. They request that all required services should be in place before any future growth is approved in Courtice. They have offered no objection but request that any future residents be informed that this area will be served by part-time staff. This concern will be addressed through any conditions of draft plan of subdivision approval. 7.6 Clarington Public Works Department Comments The Clarington Public Works Department provided extensive comments and conditions of draft approval including the following major remarks: • the applicant will be responsible for the implementation of all traffic related improvements deemed necessary by the Director of Public Works as indicated by the Hancock Neighbourhood Plan Site Traffic Analysis. The timing and implementation of traffic control measures shall be determined by the Director of Public Works. • the applicant must construct to full municipal standards, the extension of Street "A" which is a connecting link for the north limit of plan 18T-92014 to the south limit of this plan. 699020 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 15 • the applicant will be required to make payments to the Municipality in the amounts stated in a front ending agreement between the Municipality and Macourtice Developments Inc. The payment is required as a result of the over-sizing of storm sewers associated with Registered Plans 40M-1675 and 40M-1693 which enable the development of these lands to proceed. The applicant will also be required to purchase Block 77 in Registered plan 40M-1675 for the construction of storm water management works for the watershed or to reimburse the Municipality if it acquires it under the current option agreement with Macourtice Developments Inc. • the plan of subdivision cannot be registered until such time as draft plan of subdivision 18T-92014 has been developed and the internal roads and infrastructure have been constructed to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works. • the phasing of this plan of subdivision will be dependent upon the construction of the storm water management works for this watershed, external servicing and the construction and funding of the external road improvements. • the location of the future trunk sanitary sewer servicing lands situated north of the Hancock Neighbourhood must be finalized and the approved location must not adversely impact upon the roads, parks or parkettes located within the Hancock Neighbourhood. • the applicant will be required to provide a water supply contingency plan detailing the manner in which water will be supplied to local residents in the event of an impact upon i the groundwater table during servicing. • the applicant will be responsible to construct, or contribute toward, downstream erosion protection works which, in the opinion of the Director of Public Works, are caused or aggravated by this development. • the development cannot proceed until such time as the Municipality has approved the expenditure of funds for: i) the provision of roads, street lighting and sidewalk improvements along Courtice and Nash Roads; and ii) the construction of the Parkette (Block 125). 7.7 CLOC Comments CLOC requested that prior to any on-site grading, or construction, or final approval of the plan of subdivision, the owner shall submit to, and obtain approval from CLOC for reports describing the following: • the intended means of conveying stormwater flow from the site; • the anticipated impact of the development on water quality; and 699n21 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 16 • the means whereby erosion and sedimentation and their effects will be minimized on the site during and after construction, in accordance with provincial guidelines. In addition, prior to final approval of the plan, or any site alteration of the property, the applicant shall submit and obtain approval of: • forest edge management plans for lots 1 to 22; • detailed design and location plans of all groundwater infiltration measures to be incorporated on the sites; and, • an environmental construction management plan which details the construction timing and specification for all environmental impact mitigation measures. I Finally, CLOC requests that the subdivision agreement between the applicant and the Municipality shall contain the following conditions: j • the owner agrees to develop the plan in accordance with the plans, reports and recommendations as required in the foregoing; and, • prior to any construction occurring on lots 1 to 22 the owner agrees to install fencing along the east property limits of the lots. 7.8 Separate School Board Comments The Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington Roman Catholic Separate School Board requests that sidewalks be provided along all internal streets to accommodate children walking to the separate elementary school south of Nash Road. They also request that traffic control measures be provided to ensure safe pedestrian movement from the development north of Nash Road to the school site. Signalization and crosswalks should be located at the intersection of Nash Road and Street "A". However, the condition will be implemented through the conditions of draft approval for the related plan of subdivision 18T-92014 to the south. 7.9 Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board Comments The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board has requested that this plan of subdivision not be approved until plan of subdivision 18T-92014, which contains the school site, is approved. 699022 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 17 8. STAFF COMMENTS 8.1 In order to discuss the issues related to the proposal, the comments have been organized on the basis of the following major topics: • environmental issues • neighbourhood design plan • growth management • density • parking issues • watershed study 8.2 Environmental Issues Concern has been expressed by the area residents regarding the potential impact of the proposed subdivisions on sensitive environmental features in the Hancock Neighbourhood and the aquatic habitat in Black Creek, as well as water supply to area wells. In particular, these concerns have focused on the possible lowering of the water table as a result of urban development and more direct impacts to on-site vegetation communities as a result of construction activities and the activities of future residents. A number of reports have been submitted by the proponent to identify the anticipated nature and level of these impacts and to recommend measures to mitigate such impacts. Many of the proposed mitigation measures are straightforward and easily implementable, such as the installation of fencing to control access. However, other measures such as infiltration trenches and measures to protect against thermal impacts on water quality, require detailed design work. As noted by CLOC, the proponent must prepare detailed design and implementation plans for each of the proposed mitigation measures to ensure that they are not only effective, but in fact, they are implemented in the manner intended. In this regard, Staff concur with CLOC's suggestion that the proponent develop an Environmental Construction Management Plan, to the satisfaction of CLOC and the Municipality. This Plan would specify how each of the proposed mitigation measures would be implemented, including project management, site supervision and follow-up monitoring. 699023 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 18 8.3 Neighbourhood Design Plan The Clarington Official Plan requires the preparation of a Neighbourhood Design Plan prior to the consideration of any plan of subdivision. The Clarington Official Plan states that "a neighbourhood design plan is a visual interpretation of the future development of an entire neighbourhood". They are utilized by Staff in reviewing subdivision applications for the specific neighbourhood. They will also illustrate, for perspective purchasers, the land uses proposed in the balance of the neighbourhood. The Plans are intended to detail the following: • all road alignments within a neighbourhood, including right-of-way widths and required widenings; • any walking or cycling trail systems, as well as future transit routes; • the location of school, park and open space blocks, including storm water managen,4ent blocks; and, • lotting patterns and densities. An information report was presented to Council on October 21, 1996, advising of the applicant's submission of an application to approve the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan. As a result of consultation with Staff, and the circulation and subsequent revision of the draft plans of subdivision within the neighbourhood, the Neighbourhood Design Plan was revised (Attachment No. 5) and was recently endorsed by Staff. The Neighbourhood Design Plan for the Hancock Neighbourhood includes the following components: • a context map; • a constraints and opportunities map; • a land use plan; • a phasing plan; • a transportation plan; and • an open space and parks master plan. A copy of the Hancock Neighbourhood Design Plan is available for inspection at the Planning and Development Department during normal office hours. It should also be noted that Staff's endorsement of the Neighbourhood Design Plan does not constitute any form of approval under the Planning Act and does not impact upon the rights of the residents before the OMB. 699024 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 19 8.4 Growth Management Section 5.3.6 of the Clarington Official Plan states that in considering an application for approval and phasing of residential development the Municipality shall seek to ensure, among other matters the sequential development of neighbourhoods and the prevention of "leap frogging" of vacant lands. The Official Plan also states that in the approval of a draft plan of subdivision, the Municipality will recommend appropriate conditions to implement the policies of Section 5.3.6, and final approval for registration of any plan of subdivision, in whole or in part, may not be granted unless the Municipality is satisfied that the principles of Section 5 have been meet. Section 5.3.9 gives Council the authority to declare a residential draft plan of subdivision to be premature and recommend that it not be approved if any of the following apply: • the plan does not implement the principles contained in Section 5.3.6; • the municipal wide non-residential assessment is less than 15 percent of total assessment; • the capital works services required to service the lands and the future residents are not within the Municipality's current capital budget or 10 year capital works forecast; or • Council is of the opinion that the Municipality's administrative and financial resources are not sufficient to provide an adequate level of service for those residents who would be accommodated in the proposed plan of subdivision, as well as to provide and maintain an adequate level of services for existing residents and residents who will live in developments which have been approved by the Municipality. Both Regional and Clarington Public Works Departments have noted the non-sequential nature of this plan of subdivision and have indicated additional requirements that the applicant must satisfy to enable the development of these lands. Staff's opinion is that the issue of growth management with respect to this plan of subdivision is an issue of sequential development and not an issue of prematurity. The basis for this position is that the works required for the development of this plan of subdivision are provided for within the Development Charges By-law, although the works are not currently 699025 REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 20 budgeted for. Nevertheless, the conditions of draft approval contain several conditions which are quite onerous to the owner including conditions which: • require the acquisition of additional external lands for storm water management purposes; • require the acquisition of additional external lands to provide for a connecting link on Street "A" between the north plan of subdivision (18T-94027) and the south plan of subdivision (18T-92014); • prevent development until external works, which are provided for in the Development Charges By-law, are budgeted for; and • prevent development in this plan of subdivision until permits have been issued for 75% of the total housing units in the south plan of subdivision (18T-92014). Since prematurity is not an issue, Staff are of the opinion that the conditions of draft approval will allow for the development of the neighbourhood to proceed in the sequential manner: t 8.5 Density Issues These applications for draft plan of subdivision and rezoning were originally filed in 1992. In the same year the applicant also filed for an Official Plan Amendment to the former Town of Newcastle Official Plan. The population figure set under the former Official Plan was 1900 persons in total for the entire neighbourhood. The applicant sought to change this population target to 4585 persons. The issue of density has been the primary reason for the series of revisions to the original application. The review and subsequent approval of the Clarington Official Plan resulted in a population increase from 1900 persons to 2800. While this is an increase over the original Official Plan, the original densities were not feasible under current conditions. However, in recognition of the environmental constraints in this neighbourhood, Staff proposed using a lower density factor in the Hancock Neighbourhood than in other parts of Courtice. The lower density was, in part, to provide larger lot sizes which would incorporate existing vegetation features and allow for greater infiltration of storm water. The applicant and Staff have agreed on a target of 975 residential units and 2900 persons (up 100 from the proposed Official Plan). The greater increase in persons is due to the use of more single detached units 699 026 i REPORT NO.: PD- 108-98 PAGE 21 which yield a greater population per unit than the medium density units. 8.6 Parking Issues A concern has been raised by Council on the issue of on-street parking within urban neighbourhoods. It is noted that, the applicant has submitted a parking plan, prepared by G.M. Sernas and Associates, for the Clarington Public Works Department review and comment. The Public Works Department noted the parking plan provides 153 on-street parking spaces which greatly exceeds the minimum requirement of 51 on-street parking spaces as per the guidelines of the Municipality with respect to the provision of on-street parking. It is also important to note that the subdivision is developing at a much lower density than other Neighbourhoods, as detailed in Section 8.5 of this Report. This lower density and the absence of townhouses do not appear to cause any future on-street parking problems. 8.6 Watershed Study In April of 1998, the Friends of the Farewell made submissions to Regional and Clarington Councils regarding the lack of watershed study for this Neighbourhood. The lack of a watershed study for this Neighbourhood is addressed in Section 7.6 of Report PD-106-98 on this agenda. 9. CONCLUSION 9.1 In conclusion, Staff recommend that Report PD-108-98 be endorsed as the Municipality's position with respect to the revised draft plan of subdivision and zoning by-law amendment, scheduled for an OMB pre-hearing to commence on September 24, 1998.

THAT Report PD-109-98 be received ; 2. THAT the request for removal of Part Lot Control in respect of Block 38 on 40M-1779 be APPROVED; 3. THAT the attached By-law be APPROVED and forwarded to the Regional Municipality of Durham pursuant to Section 50 (7.1) of the Planning Act; and i 4. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 Development within the Avondale Neighbourhood (No. 7) to date has proceeded through the registration of various phases of the "Courtice Crossing" and "Fieldstone" subdivisions. 65 Avondale Drive is a 15 m minimum frontage single family dwelling lot that is made up in part of Block 38 of Plan 40M-1779, ("Courtice Crossings" subdivision) and Block 52 of Plan 40M-1820, ("Fieldstone" subdivision). 1.2 Block 38 on Plan 40M-1779 and Block 52 on Plan 40M-1820 (see Attachment No. 1), individually have a frontage of 7.92 and 7.089 metres. Collectively a frontage of 15.009 m was provided for 65 Avondale Drive. h99 (1 � � i REPORT NO.: PD-109-98 PAGE 2 1.3 As illustrated on the schedule to the proposed By-law (Attachment No. 2), the width of Block 38 along the rear property line is 15.16 metres. The purpose of the Part Lot Control By-law application is to straighten the westerly lot line by transferring title of the most westerly 0.16 metres of Block 38 to Block 39 on Plan 40M-1779. The resulting parcels would then have a property line without the minor jog that presently exists. 1.4 Staff have no objections to the application noting that its approval would not create j any additional lots that were not previously contemplated and would correct the irregularity of the lot line between the two residential lots. 2. RECOMMENDATION i 2.1 Staff recommend that Council approve the attached Part Lot Control By-law allowing the minor adjustment to the lot lines between Block 38 and Block 39 of 40M-1779.

THAT Report PD-110-98 be received ; i 2. THAT the issue of farm produce outlet be considered and reviewed within the context of the comprehensive review and drafting of the new zoning by-law for the Municipality of Clarington; and 3. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. i 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 In the late spring of 1997, the Municipality received complaints with respect to certain farm produce stands selling items not produced on the farm unit. The Owner of the retail farm stand was sent a letter in late June 1997 explaining the property is not zoned for a retail store, and that a retail farm stand can only sell items produced on the farm unit. 1.2 The issue was introduced to Council at their meeting on July 7`h, 1997, at which time the following resolution was adopted: "WHEREAS several farming operations within the Municipality of Clarington have expanded their businesses to include certain uses or activities that are tourism oriented; innnnn I REPORT NO.: PD-110-98 PAGE 2 AND WHEREAS the Zoning By-law is out dated and doesn't allow these uses and is not in conformity to the Clarington Official Plan; AND WHEREAS these businesses are considered valuable assets to the Municipality; NOW THEREFORE the Council of the Municipality of Clarington resolves: THAT Planning Staff be directed to review the subject matter and to initiate the necessary process to amend the Zoning By-law so as to expand the list of permitted uses for the agricultural businesses; and THAT the By-law Enforcement Officer be directed not to commence or continue any action against any of the agricultural businesses until or unless so directed by Council" 1.3 As a result of the Council resolution, Staff commenced a review of the zoning by- f law provisions, and undertook a survey of 19 farming operations in Clarington (see attached). The farms were listed in either the "Durham Farm Fresh" guide or on record with the Municipality's and the Region's Economic Development Departments as having a 'Roadside 'Market, 'Farm Gate' or Pick-your-Own' operation. Responses were received from 16 or 84% of the farms. The survey attempted to get a clearer understanding of the following: i) type of produce and goods currently being sold from produce stands; ii) percentage of products sold which are not originally from the farm unit; iii) range of goods sold; and iv) other activities undertaken on the farm. 1 .4 In addition, Staff had informal discussions with some members of the local farming community as well as hosting a meeting with a representative group of the local agricultural community to discuss the contents and regulations of a possible zoning by-law amendment. 1.5 Furthermore, several municipalities both within Durham Region, as well as within the Niagara Region were contacted to see how other Municipalities regulate farm produce stands. As well discussions were had with Staff at the Ministry of 699049 I REPORT NO.: PD-110-98 PAGE 3 Agriculture and Food, and Farm Markets Ontario. 1.6 Survey Results From the survey it was apparent that in addition to locally grown produce and value-added products produced on the farm unit (i.e. apple cider and pies of various flavours), a number of retail farm stands are selling produce not grown locally, as well as arts and crafts items purchased through wholesalers. The following provides a brief summary of some of the survey results: i) arts and crafts items were identified as being sold at almost 40% of the retail stands. Some of the art and craft items sold are produced on the farm unit, however, the majority of those selling such items have purchased them wholesale; f ii) another area of interest is the amount of produce sold which is not produced on the farm unit. here again almost 40% of the respondents suggested they sell fresh produce not grown from their farm; and iii) lastly, other activities undertaken on the farm unit included school tours 60%, and festivals 38%. 2> ZONING BY-LAW POLICIES 2.1 The Municipality's current Zoning By-law 84-63, as amended, has two main agricultural zone categories; "Agricultural (A)" and "Agricultural Exception(A-1)". While the "A" zone includes 'seasonal farm produce sales outlet', as a permitted use, the "A-1" zones does not. Seasonal Farm Produce is defined in part as an outlet "operating during the harvest and selling seasons and provided that a majority of the produce offered for sale is produced from the same farm unit". Both zones include 'a farm' as a permitted use. Farm is defined in the By-law as including "retail stands for the sale of agricultural products produced on the farm unit". 2.2 There would appear to be some inconsistency between the list of permitted uses and the definition of farm. Nevertheless, the current definitions do not provide sufficient flexibility to accommodate the current nature of existing retail farm stand operations. � 9 9Al n REPORT NO.: PD-110-98 PAGE 4 3. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 3.1 The policies of the Durham Regional Official Plan permit retail stands for the sale of agricultural products from the farm unit upon which the stand is to be situated within agricultural areas. Agricultural areas include lands designated Major Open Space, Oak Ridges Moraine, General Agricultural Area, Permanent Agricultural Reserve, or Permanent Agricultural Reserve subject to Section 14.3 3.2 Within the Clarington Official Plan the rural ortions of the Municipality, outside of p settlement areas, are designated Prime Agricultural Area, General Agricultural Area, Green Space, Prime Agricultural Area subject to Section 14.6, or Oak Ridges i Maraine. 3.3 The Prime Agricultural Area policies of the Clarington Official Plan state that .lands so designated shall only be used for farm and farm related uses. "Seasonal farm produce stands are permitted provided the produce is grown locally". The I predominant use of land in the General Agricultural Areas shall be farm and farm- related uses. In addition, farm produce outlets are permitted subject to conditions. 3.4 The policies of both Official Plans limit the use of a farm produce stand to selling items produced from the farm unit. Furthermore, the quasi tourism aspect of the operation is not something that is considered in the Official Plan. 4 STAFF COMMENTS 4.1 The Municipality of Clarington is comprised of approximately 600 square kilometres of land area, a large portion of which is rural. Not surprisingly agricultural remains a notable part of the Municipality's economic base. As a result of the survey responses, discussions with members of the farming community, as well as casual observation of existing operations, it is apparent that retail farm A99 (l � 1 REPORT NO.: PD-110-98 PAGE 5 stands, and pick-your-own operations are an important tourist activity for the Municipality. However, many of the produce stands offer a range of products, which includes produce not grown locally, as well as art and craft items purchased wholesale. 4.2 Council requested Staff initiate a review of the zoning by-law provisions dealing with farm produce stands with the intent of drafting provisions which would expand the list of permitted uses for such stands. 4.3 In preparing a zoning by-law amendment for retail farm stands as directed by Council, a balance between conformity to the Official Plan provisions and the — wishes of the agricultural community must be achieved. The agricultural community would generally argue that they need the flexibility to sell produce that is not exclusively from the farm unit. Furthermore, the various festivals and quasi tourism types uses are suggested to be an important part to their operation and good for the Municipality as a whole. 4.4 The Regional Official Plan policies specifically state the produce sold at a farm produce stand is to be grown on the farm unit, and the Clarington Plan policies state the produce sold is to be grown locally. The policies are in place to ensure that agricultural lands and uses do not become retail commercial ventures, which may not be compatible with surrounding rural uses. 4.5 The notion of expanding the list of permitted uses for a produce stand is perceived by some retailers, as providing an unfair advantage to the farmer, who traditionally does not pay commercial taxes. Retail stores typically require commercially zoned property which usually has a higher land cost or rent value than agriculturally zoned land. � QQ (1 � 7 i REPORT NO.: PD-110-98 PAGE 6 4.6 The tourism aspect of the farm produce stands cannot be ignored. The various operations attract many families from neighbouring municipalities, across Durham Region and Toronto to the Municipality for the various strawberry and apple festivals, as well as Halloween, and Thanksgiving activities, in addition to the retail farm stand. However, the extent of these activities and their conformity with the Official plan policies is also questionable. 4.7 The zoning by-law amendment to expand the list of uses for farm produce stands is not in conformity with the Official Plan policies, and Staff cannot recommend an amending by-law as requested by Council. Planning Staff are currently undertaking a comprehensive review of the Municipality's Zoning By-law. The issue of retail farm stand may best be co-ordinated through that process, including a possible official plan amendment. 5. CONCULSION 5.1 The issue of retail farm stands should be referred to the Zoning By-law review process, and that appropriate provisions dealing with retail farm stands and the issues discussed in this report be contained in the provisions of the new zoning by- law.

THAT Report PD-112-98 be received for information. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 On June 22, 1998, Council received Report PD-71-98 on the official plan amendment and rezoning applications by Clarington Place Limited and 800769 Ontario Limited (Clarington Place). At that time, staff noted the inter-relationship of that application with the West Bowmanville Business Park proposed by The Kaitlin Group. It was noted that a comprehensive review of the transportation system and the preparation of urban design guidelines encompassing both development parcels was appropriate before consideration of the official plan amendment, subdivision and rezoning applications by both applicants. The purpose of this report is to provide Council with the background for this Study and to report on its status. i REPORT NO.: PD-112-98 PAGE 2 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 The West Main Central Area for Bowmanville (Uptown Bowmanville) was the subject of a secondary plan and urban design study in 1992-1993. That study was undertaken in response to four applications for commercial plazas in the area fronting on Highway 2 between Green Road and Regional Road 57 (Martin Road). A primary objective of that study was to prepare a comprehensive and integrated land use plan for an expanded Main Central Area which, in combination with the existing Main Central Area, was to serve as a focal point in the Municipality. High urban design standards were to be employed to ensure an active street life, pedestrian friendliness and community pride. To that end, an Urban Design Plan was prepared an adopted by Council on December 13, 1993. The Urban Design. f Plan provides a visual three-dimensional interpretation of the future of the area to serve as a guideline in evaluating individual proposals. 2.2 The Study recommended a grid system of streets, that could accommodate increasing volumes of traffic as land uses in the area intensified. Uptown Bowmanville will be the most intensely developed area of the Municipality. In addition to major retail and community facilities, it will be the site of high density residential uses, office development and a future GO train terminal. Traffic considerations played a major role in the plan for the area. A comprehensive traffic study was undertaken at the time. 2.3 The study provided background information for a Secondary Plan and Urban Design Plan for the Uptown Bowmanville area.. This was central to Council's review of development proposals in the area . It also became the central element of an extensive Ontario Municipal Board hearing. The Ontario Municipal Board approved Official Plan Amendment #56 with modifications and the related zoning by-laws for Markborough Properties and Clarington Place. They also supported the grid road concept for the Uptown Bowmanville area as an efficient means of � 99 (1 � � I I REPORT NO.: PD-112-98 PAGE 3 means of providing accesses to the area without compromising the urban character of the area. The Board issued its decision in December of 1995. 2.4 During the preparation of the new Clarington Official Plan, the West Main Central Area Secondary Plan was incorporated with modifications. Specifically, the Plan was amended from the document approved by the Board to: • reflect a subsequent decision to delete the underpass under the CPR railway connecting Clarington Boulevard to Aspen Springs Drive; and • provide for the expansion of the Community Park to the north by deleting a portion of Street H. -- 2.5 During the preparation of the Clarington Official Plan, Green Martin Properties (The Kaitlin Group) requested that their lands on the west side of Green Road be designated to permit a business park. Kaitlin's submission .indicated that they were willing to construct a tourist information centre and dedicate a site to the Municipality comprised of no less that 0.5 ha.(1.2 ac). Staff did not support this proposal. Nevertheless, Council amended the Official Plan to incorporate Special Policy Area H — The West Bowmanville Gateway. The Special Policy Area comprises a Special Purpose Commercial designation and additional policies as foI lows: • Service stations and motor vehicle service establishments are not permitted; • Prior to the development of any part of the Special Policy Area, the proponent will enter into an agreement to construct a tourist information centre and transfer to the Municipality a site of no less than 0.5 ha.; • Development in Special Policy Area H shall be subject to urban design guidelines to be prepared and approved by the Municipality. 2.6 Both the Kaitlin Group and Clarington Place Limited currently have applications before the Municipality: i REPORT NO.: PD-112-98 PAGE 4 a) In March 1998, the Kaitlin Group submitted applications for a plan of subdivision and rezoning for their lands in the West Bowmanville Gateway. b) In March 1997, an application was filed on behalf of Clarington Place Limited and 800769 Ontario Limited which, in part, proposed to redesignate lands within the Uptown Bowmanville area from High Density Residential and Medium Density Residential to Entertainment Commercial. In June 1998, the applicant revised his proposal by withdrawing the proposed rezoning and revising the proposed Official Plan designation to Retail Commercial. Given the requirements to update the Urban Design Plan for the Uptown Area and to prepare Urban Design Guidelines for the West Bowmanville Gateway Area, and the inter-relationships between the two areas, staff felt that it was important to have f a comprehensive review and a coordinated urban design concept. Consequently both development proponents agreed to fund a study which examined urban design and transportation issues in the area. 3. STUDY PROGRESS 3.1 As noted in Report PD-71-98, Urban Strategies Inc. (formerly Berridge Lewinberg Greenberg) are undertaking the urban design component and Totten Sims Hubicki are undertaking the Transportation component of the Study. To date the following activities have been completed: • Terms of Reference have been prepared and approved by the Kaitlin Group and Clarington Place; • The development proponents have forwarded initial payments to the Municipality; • A project initiation meeting was held with the consultant team, Municipal staff and Regional staff; • Meetings were held with each of the proponents to review some of the initial findings and to clarify their development proposals. Work is currently proceeding and future meetings are scheduled. It is anticipated that the Study will be presented to Council in mid-fall, thereby completing the comprehensive review of the applications proposed for this area. A full REPORT NO.: PD-112-98 PAGE 5 presentation will be made to Council by the consultant team. This will enable Council to have the benefit of full comprehensive review of the area prior to making decisions on individual applications. 4. COMMENTS 4.1. The area under study represents the westerly gateway to Bowmanville. Therefore, it's important to have an urban design plan in place to guide individual development applications. This would prevent unsightly piecemeal development and at the same time, achieve some consistency with the urban design features that are now in place in the recently built Clarington Place and Clarington Centre. 4.2 The grid system of public roads assumes that multiple roads are available to relieve f the traffic volumes on arterial roads. In particular, in Uptown Bowmanville, Street H and Bowmanville Boulevard (see attachment) were intended to provide alternate access to the area and relieve Highway 2 from the large volumes of traffic generated by these land uses. The designation of the West Bowmanville Gateway'Area was undertaken without the benefit of traffic studies or consideration of the impact on Uptown Bowmanville. The current study will allow for a comprehensive review of the transportation plan for the area in light of traffic volumes generated by existing development, and recent proposals to amend the Official Plan. The Study will also consider ways of improving access to municipal facilities in Uptown Bowmanville, including the Fire Station and the Garnet B. Rickard Complex. 4.3 An important element for the Municipality is the timing of crucial links in the grid road system. Unless certain components of the road system are timed relative to new development, the incomplete system will not function as intended and traffic problems will arise. Some of these are evident even with the current level of development but will become worse with new development unless crucial segments of roads are built. The transportation plan will relate development with the timing of road infrastructure. REPORT NO.: PD-112-98 PAGE 6 5. CONCLUSION 5.1 An Urban Design and Transportation Planning Study has been initiated to review the inter-relationships of the Uptown Bowmanville Area and the new West Bowmanville Gateway Area. There is a need to re-evaluate the land use and transportation plan in light of decisions made over the past few years. This Study will be completed by mid-fall and allow for the subsequent review of the related applications in the area. Respectfully ectful) p y submitted, Reviewed by, Franklin W.H.

This format will be utilized commencing with the agenda of September 28, 1998. Rather than copying each item of correspondence to be dealt with, a"Summary of Correspondence" providing a detailed outline of each item together with a recommended disposition will be included in the agenda: A copy of the Summary of Correspondence from the June 3, 1998 Regional meeting is attached for information. As evident from this example, the summary results in a significant reduction in the amount of paper used in an agenda. When it is determined necessary, an item of correspondence will be copied in its entirety(refer to attachment). Should anyone wish to read an item of correspondence which has not been reproduced, it will be available in the Clerk's Department at any time. The inclusion of a summary of all correspondence makes the listing of each item of correspondence on the agenda page redundant, therefore, the format of the agenda page will be altered also. As all of the Committee's actions requiring Council's ratification are reflected in Report#1, the inclusion of the General Purpose and Administration Committee minutes with the report is unnecessary. Following completion of the minutes,they will be circulated to the Department Heads in order for any follow-up actions to be commenced.' They will then be reproduced in the next Committee agenda for adoption. 7 n 6 i Report CD-45-98 -2- September 21, 1998 As with the correspondence, a summary of the by-laws will be printed rather than the by-laws in their entirety. An analysis will be completed prior to year end to determine whether the present method of using bindings and covers is the most effective method of presenting the agenda. Another method will not be implemented, however, until the present stock of covers and bindings is depleted. Respectfully submitted Reviewed by Patti am M.C.T. W.H.

The Facts: The provincial government intends to pass Bill 16 by May 29 of this year, as many of the provisions of the Bill directly affect the ability of municipalities to establish tax rates and tax policies once final assessed values and transition ratios are released, also anticipated for the end of May. It is unlikely that this Bill WT- be subject to public hearings or standing committee review,.given the extremely tight timeline for legislative approval and Royal Assent. AMO, in discussions with Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing representatives, has identified some of the key issues within Bill 16. The Bill contains many provisions'that are necessary to enact modifications to the Province's Ontario Fair Assessment System (OFAS) which have been announced since the introduction of the Fair Municipal Finance Act and Bill 164. In particular, the Bill contains measures to allow municipalities to protect small businesses and charities from large tax increases through the use of rebates, caps on tax increases and graduated tax rates for commercial and industrial property types. The 2.5 per cent Cap on CommercialAndustrial Tax Increases: • The Bill contains provisions which would allow municipalities to impose a 2.5 per cent cap on tax increases and decreases for each of the years 1998, 1999 and 2000. The cap would be applied at the discretion of the municipality, and applies only to commercial, industrial and multi-residential properties. The tax cap is an absolute cap, meaning that property tax increases are limited to 2.5 per cent of the total 1997 taxes (including Business Occupancy Tax amounts), regardless of whether the increase is due to assessment-related increases or to local budget increases. • If utilized, the cap must remain in place for each of the three years, and the cap may be financed entirely within the property tax class to which it applies (i.e. shortfalls arising from capped taxes maybe offset by limiting tax decreases to 2.5 per cent on properties, entitled to lower taxes under the new CVA system), or it may be financed across all property classes. Where a cap has been implemented, the Province will also cap education tax rates at a similar level. • The capping mechanism will likely only_be needed where all other measures available to municipalities to mitigate tax Increases (e.g. tiered tax rates, phase-ins, rebates, etc.) still do not sufficiently alleviate tax increases. This would likely only occur in municipalities with outdated assessment bases. In more recently reassessed municipalities, the tax cap may not be necessary, and may limit alternatives for future tax rate scenarios: • AMO is concerned that where caps are introduced in some municipalities, neighbouring municipalities will come under significant pressure from owners of similar properties and/or ratepayer groups to have their taxes similarly capped. This presents a problem where municipalities have chosen to utilize other available methods to mitigate tax increases. ..J2 2 1 :0 7 , MAY-22-98 FRI 03:20 PM AMO FAX NO. 4169716191 P. 02/02-- Member Communication -Alert: Ontario's Fair Assessment System -2-J2 ++- Rebates to Charities: • Bill 16 provides for a mandatory rebate of 40 per cent of total property taxes for eligible charities (those registered under the federal Income Tax A4. Municipalities alsofiave the option to establish a by-law to extend this rebate to other'similae organizations,or to increase the amount of the rebate beyond 40 per cent. • The rebates provided by a municipality are cost-shared between the municipality and school boards in the same proportion as property taxes are shared. + Bill 16 also contains a requirement that rebates for eligible charities for 1998 and the first installment of 1999 are required to be paid by October 31, 1998. AMO has learned that this provision was to ensure that charitable organizations would not encounter cash flow problems in meeting tax obligations. This requirement places an unfair obligation on municipalities to pay rebates in advance of the actual due dates of taxes. AMO has suggested that a more appropriate provision would be one which allows rebate payments to be issued to eligible charities if and when actual tax payments are due. • "Municipalities are also struggling with an effective means of identifying or classifying 'similar' ;organizations, such that non-profit organizations that were not previously subject to BOT may continue to carry on operations without facing large tax increases. �+- Other Rebates: • Bill 16 also provides the power for municipalities to prescribe,by by-iaw, other rebates of property taxes to identified!groups. These provisions are intended to allow municipalities to afford further protection against tax increases to small businesses or other identified commercial or Industrial property,types to address local circumstances. Rebates provided to property owners may also be required by the municipality;to be passed on to eligible commercial tenants. • The Province may share the cost of providing rebates for the education,portion of taxes on eligible- "properties, but only after the rebate by-law has been forwarded to the Ministry of Finance and no objection Is raised by the Ministry within 30 days following receipt. Pass-Through of Tax increases in Gross Lease Scenarios: • Bill 16 provides the legislative authority for landlords to pass on tax increases related to former BOT amounts and Business Improvement Area charges to tenants in gross lease situations. While AMO supports this move.municipalities should be aware that such a legislative provision may be open to legal challenge. AMO has received an assurance on the part of the Government that these provisions have been thoroughly reviewed and are supported by legal principle, but has communicated the concerns of municipalities that the Government be prepared to stand behind potential legal challenges. w' Interim Financing for Municipalities and School Boards In 1998: • Bill 16 includes the authority for the Minister of Education and Training to make payments to school boards for education tax portions payable by municipalities. These measures will provide relief for municipalities from cash flow shortages and increased financing costs resulting from the delay in the return of the 1998 assessment roll and the associated disruption to municipal tax billing cycles. AMO Action: Notwithstanding the Government's intention to pass this Bill quickly and with as few amendments as possible.AMO has written to Minister Eves to voice our concerns as identified above. AMO will continue to be involved in subsequent discussions on how provisions of this Bill and related regulations will affect municipalities.

THAT Report CS-13-98 be received for information: 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 Canada World Youth is a national non-profit organization that coordinates international exchanges between Canada and various developing nations in Africa, the Caribbean, Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe. 1.2 Founded in 1971, the Canada World Youth creates a unique cross-cultural experience for youth to develop youth leadership skills and to provide opportunities for young people to become more involved in international and community development issues. 1.3 Canada World Youth works in cooperation with schools, youth organizations, provincial and federal government partners, educators, the United Nations and communities across Canada. 1.4 In Ontario, more than 2,000 youth from over 300 Ontario communities, towns and villages have participated in the Youth Exchange Program while over 325 Ontario communities were host to the exchange. 2.0 CLARINGTON MUNICIPALITY HOST EXPERIENCE 2.1 The Canada World Youth program is not only for young people who take part in the exchanges as participants, but also for the communities, work placements and families that host them. ../2 inn ] i REPORT CS-13-98 - 2 - SEPTEMBER 21, 1998 2.2 Information has been provided for the Municipality of Clarington to introduce us as a work project for a pair of participants, (one Russian student and one Canadian student) to participate in a work placement with the Community Services Department. The placement will take place from October 6, 1998 to December 15, 1998. 3.0 WORK PROJECTS 3.1 While there are many activities that the participants are involved with during their stay in the community, one crucial component is the work project experience. While most people in the community spend a substantial part of their day at work, the exposure that the participants gain through the work experience provides insight to the community and its people. As well, the experience develops skills for the future. 3.2 The work experience for both participants will reflect values and attitudes of our community. Differences in such concepts as the pace of work, time, orientation and role of both men and women, whether they are from Canada or Russia will challenge each participant. 3.3 The Community Services Department will be providing a work placement which will be challenging, interesting and provide a learning experience (Attachment #1). Participants will attend the work place for a full day, three (3) days a week and will be required to participate at the Arenas, Pools and the Community Services Department offices. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 The Community Services Department is pleased to provide the opportunity of a learning experience in the Municipality of Clarington for participants of the Canada World Youth program and await their arrival to the Municipality.

THE CORPORATION OF THE MUNICJPALITY OF CLARINGTON REPORT Meeting: GENERAL PURPOSE AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE File# Date: SEPTEM13ER!21, 1998 Res. # By-Law# Report#:"-49_ File#: QT. _ Subject: PROPOSED EXTENDED HOURS OF HANDI TRANSIT SERVICE Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended 'that the General ;Purpose and Administration -Committee recommend to Council the following: I. THAT Report WD-49-98 be received for information; 2. THAT a 16 week trial period be approved to provide evening, weekend and holiday service by sharing the existing after-hours Oshawa bus with Oshawa and Whitby by applying an hourly rate to the Claringtonbudget as residents need the service;and 3. THAT Ben Chartier advise! Council at the end of November of the progress of the test period and recommendation as to continuance or termination of the extended hours. REPORT 1.0 ATTACHMENTS No. 1: Handi Transit Proposal for extended hours 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 At a meeting held on June 29, 1998, the Council of the Municipality of Clarington passed the following resolution: "THAT the request of Walter Zutell for the Handi Transit service to be extended to a:oEw �aE .A 1 1 n 4 REPORT NO.: WD-49-98 PAGE 2 include evenings, weekends and holidays be referred to staff for preparation of a report; and THAT Walter Zutell be advised of Council's decision." 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 Existing Services The Clarington service presently operates Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. The City of Oshawa has funded evening,weekend and holiday Handi Transit service for many years, operating evenings 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and weekends 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Whitby residents are being provided extended service hours by using the Oshawa bus, with an hourly rate(presently$26.68)being applied to the Whitby budget. -- 3.2 Proposed Service As recently as 1995, extended hours have been unsuccessfully tested in Clarington, using the Clarington bus and driver. Clarington staff, as well as Handi Transit Incorporated, consider the increase in population and attractions (shopping centres/theatres), plus requests from the regular passengers, warrants another attempt. The most cost-effective proposal is to have Clarington residents utilize the Oshawa bus, with an hourly rate being charged to the Clarington budget. The existing Oshawa bus should be able to accommodate Oshawa, Whitby and Clarington due to the low evening and weekend demand. The alternative of using the Clarington van and employing a driver is cost prohibitive, based on the anticipated demand levels. Oshawa supports the concept of shared resources as long as it does not adversely affect Oshawa service levels. 3.3 Budget Considerations The anticipated net cost over the 16 week trial period is $3,500.00 and could be accommodated in the 1998 Handi Transit budget. This budget is currently carrying a surplus of$6,201.00 as of June 30, 1998. If demands are high for the evening and weekend i 11n7 i REPORT NO. WD-49-98 PAGE 3 service it could affect next year's budget by $10,000 to $12,000. This budget increase for 1999 would be examined in light of the increased level of service and the results of the 16 week trial period. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 Based on the estimated costs submitted by Handi Transit, Public Works staff conclude that Handi Transit could be permitted to introduce extended hours for Clarington passengers,for this trial period using the Oshawa Handi Transit bus, without having a negative impact on the existing budget.

You ' ll note that we are proposing to expand the existing Oshawa/ Whitby program to include service to Clarington . Upon receipt, please contact the undersigned so we may provide clarification as required . Yours Truly, B. ,7 . ( Ben) ' Chartier General Manager 1 1 U 9 ATTACIINM O.: OSHAWA-WHITBY-CLARINGTON-SCUG(�h_I Ivomnt-c REPORT N=-49-98 �J �V PROPOSAL: To provide Handi Transit service during evenings and weekends to eligible Clarington ?residents . Overview Handi Transit service has been provided in Clar*ington since 1981. The service operates Monday through Friday, from 8 : OOAM to '5 : OOPM. Over the past seventeen(17 ) years extended service has been "tested" a few times (most recently for a `six( 5 ) month 'period in 1995) , however demand was 'very; low: and service was eventually discontinued . Clarington is growing rapidly, both in terms of population and new venues/attractions ( Shopping Centres, Theatres, etc . ) that are wheelchair accessible . Based on this and feedback from our regular ' Clarington passengers, it may be timely to try 'again . General__Opexation The City of Oshawa has funded ' Handi Transit for evening and weekend service for many years . The service operates as follows : Evenings : ' 5 : OOPM JO : OOPM Weekends : ' 9 : OOAM 10 : 00PM Eligible residents of the Town of Whitby are also accomodated . Due to the fact that Handi. Transit 's "Oshawa" budget is funding the operation of the extended service, the ":•7hi-by" budget is charged an hour l�rate_(presently "26 . 68 ) for service to Whitby passengers . The hourly rate is an average _c�q_era_ nq_co and is revised annually;. We propose operating the service to Clarinq :nn in the same manner . With uncertain demand , this is much more cost-effective that the alternative of operating the dedicated Clarington van, employing a driver , etc . . . 1998 Budget_Impact Using a 'start date of September 14th, the program would operate for sixteen( 16 ) weeks .

STAFF COMMENTS 2.1 Temporary Access The applicant proposes to revise draft plan of subdivision 18T-90050 by providing a i temporary access from the local internal street to Baseline Road. In addition, a second revision to proposed plan of subdivision 18T-86014, adds a new Street "E" connecting Street "F" at the north limits of Phase I with the extension of Remmington Street in Phase II. Remmington Street serves the purpose of a minor collector, connecting Aspen Spring Blvd. to Green Road. The addition of Street "E" provides an alternative access to Green Road, in the fullness of time, when Green Road is constructed and Phase II is permitted to develop. Until such time that occurs, the temporary access at the south limits of Street "B" to Baseline Road, provides an alternative access to the development. i i The applicant's agent has submitted a design profile of the proposed temporary j access in support of the application. Public Works Staff have reviewed this work and find it acceptable. f 2.2 On-street Parking Plan The applicant originally submitted a parking plan depicting 41 on-street parking spaces could be accommodated. As noted in PD-97-98 this was well in excess of the 25 required based on the Municipality's criteria. A revised parking plan has been prepared suggesting that in fact as many as 73 on-street parking spaces could be accommodated for the 113 units proposed in Phase I. Staff have reviewed the revised parking plan lay out, and have eliminated spaces \vhich are considered to cause sight distance problems or operational/maintenance problems. This has reduced the number of on-street parking spaces to 51. This is still more than twice the number required by the criteria being used and does not account for a number of locations on-street which will probably be used. Staff are i ADDENDUM REPORT NO.: PD-97-98 PAGE 4 satisfied that sufficient on-street parking will be provided through this street pattern and lotting mix. 3. CONCLUSION 3.1 That Phase I of proposed draft plan of subdivision 18T-96014 be approved subject to the conditions of draft approval contained in Attachment No. 2 to this report. That the zoning by-law amendment, as revised to accommodate the new Street "E" l be approved as per attachment No. 3 Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, ( 2 r a n A Iri n W u;. C.I.P., R. W.H.

APPLICATION DETAILS I 1.1 Applicant: Bayly Holding Ltd. 1.2 Agent: The Greer Galloway Group Inc. x . 23 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 2 1.3 Rezoning Application: from "Agricultural (A)" to an appropriate zone to permit the development of a plan of subdivision containing 335 dwelling units 1.4 Proposed Plan of Subdivision: The 335 units are proposed to be developed over 3 phases with the following breakdown: on-street block singles semi/link townhouses townhouses total Phase I (units) 16 52 45 113 Phase II (units) 21 48 69 Phase III (units) 25 62 16 50 153 TOTAL: 62 162 61 50 335 Phase II lands include a block for 1000 m2 of neighbourhood commercial use. Phase III lands include a block for neighbourhood park and a block for Separate Elementary School. I 1.4 Land Area: 18.735 ha (43.82 acres) 2. LOCATION 2.1 The subject property is located north of Baseline Road, east of Green Road, south of the C.P. Railway and west of West Side Drive. The land is described as being in part of Lot 16, Concession 1, former Township of Darlington. i 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 The referenced subdivision application was circulated to the Municipality in December 1996. The Municipality received the subject rezoning application on January 7, 1997. A joint public meeting for the proposed Plan of Subdivision and A 154 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 3 rezoning application was held March 3, 1997. The applicant was the only person to speak at the meeting. 3.2 The subject site, and adjacent lands to the west are characterized by a large drumlin. Said feature has a significant impact on the road and servicing design. As a result, the Municipality prepared a design profile for the construction of Green Road and the Baseline Road/Green Road intersection. The developer was provided a copy of this profile and all grading for the proposed plan was required to conform to the ultimate Green Road road profile. 3.3 The applicant has submitted the following documents in support of the application: • Preliminary Servicing and Stormwater Management Report; • Environmental Noise Impact Study; • Phasing Plan; Transportation Study; • Street Parking Layout Plan; and • Site Screening Questionnaire. 4. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING USES 4.1 The existing site is currently vacant and is characterized by part of a drumlin which impacts the southern third of the subject lands. 4.2 Surrounding land uses are as follows: South: Baseline Road and an existing residence on the south side of the road; East: residential development associated with the Aspen Springs subdivision; North: Canadian Pacific Railway; and West: vacant land subject to applications for rezoning and proposed Plan of Subdivision. 1 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 4 5. OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES 5.1 Within the Durham Regional Official Plan the subject property is designated "Living Area". Said designation shall permit the development of communities with defined boundaries, incorporating the widest possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure. The proposed use appears to conform. The-subject property is bounded by Baseline Road and the Green Road road allowance which are designated Type "A" and "B" arterials, respectively, in the Regional Plan. 5.2 Within the Clarington Official Plan the subject lands are designated Urban Residential within the Bowmanville Urban Area. The lands are part of the Westvale 'i Neighbourhood (No. 13), which has a population target of 4700 people and a unit target of 1750. Furthermore, the lands contain two medium density symbols, a park- symbol, a separate elementary school symbol, and a neighbourhood commercial designation. The Transportation Schedule identifies a collector road bisecting the northern part of the site, forming the extension of Aspen Springs Drive. Green Road is identified as a Type B arterial, while Baseline Road is designated a Type A I arterial. 5.3 The urban residential designation permits low density development to occur up to a density of 30 units per net ha and medium density may achieve 31 to 60 uph. Although the Official Plan establishes a range of net densities, development may not necessarily take place near the upper end of the density category, but rather shall be governed by the population allocation. The policies for the housing targets state that the allocation of housing units within each medium and high density residential area will generally be based on equal share of the total housing units in each category. Furthermore, the medium density policies state that block i townhouse development shall generally not exceed 50 units and on-street townhouse units shall not be sited on opposite sides of the street unless adequate on street parking can be provided to the satisfaction of the Municipality. REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 5 5.4 The development has an overall density of 31.5 uph. However, this includes the medium density components. The 224 proposed low density units have a density of 28.73 uph. The application is deemed to conform. 5.5 Section 5, Growth Management, of the Clarington Official Plan contains provisions for reviewing residential development applications. Section 5.3.9 (c) specifically states: "Council may declare a residential draft plan of subdivision to be premature and recommend it not be approved if ... the capital works and services required to service the lands and the future residents are not within the Municipality's current capital budget or 10 year capital works forecast as updated from time to time". Green Road, Baseline Road and the designated Neighbourhood Park are noT-' currently within the Municipality's 10 year capital work forecast or Development Charge By-law. This issue is discussed in Sections 7.10, 7.11, 8.8 and 8.9. i 6. ZONING 6.1 The current zoning on the subject property is "Agricultural (A)". Said zone would not permit the development of the proposed plan of subdivision, hence the need for the rezoning application. 7. AGENCY COMMENTS 7.1 In accordance with departmental procedure the subject application was circulated to a number of agencies and departments for comment. The following agencies provided comments stating they had no objection to the proposed applications: Ontario Hydro; GO Transit; Fire Department; and Canada Post 7.2 The Public School Board advised that the proposed plan of subdivision would yield approximately 115 students. As a result the school board requested sidewalks on all road frontages and that a condition requiring the development of the subject REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 6 lands be phased in accordance with availability of satisfactory school accommodation. 7.3 The Separate School Board has provided comments advising that Block 158 the school block, and lots 8 to 15 inclusive be reserved for school purposes. The eight (8) lots shall be reserved for a maximum of seven years from the date of registration of that portion of the plan of subdivision which includes the subject lots. The School Board has provided detailed conditions with respect to servicing and conditions on the purchase of the lands. 7.4 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority has advised that they are prepared to support the proposed development, as the property limits are within an approved— Master Drainage Plan (MDP) area. They further requested that the lands be rezoned with a Holding (H) symbol, until such time as the storm water management works, detailed in the MDP, required to service these lands are completed. The Authority has requested several conditions be included in any consideration for draft approval i of the subdivision application. 7.5 The Clarington Public Works Department provided detailed comments and conditions on the rezoning and proposed plan of subdivision applications. Works, Engineering Division Staff have advised that development of the southerly portion of the proposed draft plan is contingent upon the development of plan of subdivision 18T-90050 to the east, and the applicant constructing, to full municipal standards, extensions of Street "E" and Street "F". Temporary entrances from Green Road will not be permitted. 7.6 The development of this plan prior to the reconstruction of Green Road will require motorists to'utilize West Side Drive and Aspen Springs Drive as interim access to the subdivision. As a result, a Traffic Infiltration Study was requested and prepared by the applicant's consultant in support of the proposal. Traffic calming measures } 15 8 it REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 7 will be required in the event additional traffic created by this development adversely effects the existing collector road system. The applicant is responsible to implement a Traffic Monitoring Report prepared by the applicant's transportation engineer. The monitoring will determine such things as actual traffic distribution and volumes; and the need and type of traffic calming technique or improvements to the collector road network. Any works required will be the financial responsibility of the applicant. 7.7 The phasing plan submitted by the applicant is acceptable. Phasing and development of the subdivision will be dependent on the construction of the stormwater management works for this watershed, external servicing and construction and funding of the neighbourhood park and external road i improvements. i 7.8 The applicant is to construct a storm water management facility and the storm drainage works necessary to service this watershed, as proposed in the West Side Creek Master Drainage Study. Prior to approval of any phases subsequent to phase one (1) , the applicant shall provide a Storm Water Management Implementation Report and Site Servicing Report which provides for the sequential construction of the stormwater management works necessary for the entire watershed. Consideration should be given to the major overland flows from the lands north of the CPR. 7.9 The subdivision must be graded in a manner which is compatible with the future Green Road road profile prepared by the Municipality. Completion of the grading and drainage works for the subdivision will require grading to take place on Green i Road as well as the lands situated on the west side of Green Road. The applicant will be 100% responsible for any external earthworks required to achieve compatibility between the subdivision and the future Green Road road profile. REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 8 7.10 Works staff further advises that the municipal infrastructure servicing requirements (parks, roads, street lighting and sidewalks) and phasing of this development restricts support of Draft Approval and registration of this proposal to Phase 1 only. 7.11 Support for draft approval of subsequent phases will be deferred until the Municipality's Development Charge By-law includes the construction of the neighbourhood park, construction of Green Road, reconstruction of Baseline Road, installation of street lighting and sidewalks on Baseline Road and Green Road and any works or services external to this plan deemed necessary by the Director of Public Works to service this development. Once Draft Approval for the balance of lands has been received, registration beyond Phase 1 shall not proceed until the Municipality has approved the expenditure of funds for the provision of the-- , p Y pp p p construction of the neighbourhood park, construction of Green Road, reconstruction of Baseline Road; installation of street lighting and sidewalks on Baseline Road and Green Road and any works or services external to this plan deemed necessary by the Director of Public Works to service this development; 7.12 The applicant is proposing a 1.3 ha parcel, which will form the majority of the designated neighbourhood park. The future park will have a total area of 1.6 ha i with frontage on both West Side Drive and Street "A". The applicant shall dedicate the park block to the Municipality free and clear of all encumbrances, and in a condition satisfactory to the Director of Public Works. 7.13 Regional Works staff advised that the subject lands are within the Zone 2 water distribution system for Bowmanville. At such time the population within Zone 2 reaches 7000 (presently 6000), a Zone 2 reservoir will be required. The reservoir is not scheduled to be included in the Regional budget until the year 2000. As the population approaches 7000, potential residential developments will be put on i hold. Municipal sanitary sewerage capacity is available from the existing 600 mm truck sewer located on Baseline Road and West Side Drive. Proposed streets "E" 150 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 9 and "F" are dependant on sewers being extended through adjacent proposed plan of subdivision 18T-90050. Municipal water can be provided from the existing 300 mm watermain on Baseline Road at West Side Drive. Appropriate widenings are indicated adjacent to both Baseline Road and Green Road. Regional Works provided a number of conditions for draft approval. 7.14 Regional Planning provided comments on the proposed rezoning application stating the site is designated "Living Area", in the Durham Regional Official Plan. The application is deemed to conform to the Regional Plan. Planning staff have identified two barns located on lands adjacent to the subject applications. The two barns are located within the urban area. Their comments request, that prior to draft approval being granted, confirmation be received that the barns have been demolished. 7.15 Canadian Pacific Railway officials provided comments stating they oppose the proposed development. Residential development is not considered compatible with railway operations. The health, safety and welfare of future residents could be adversely affected by railway activities. However, having said that, should the application be approved CPR requested various conditions of draft approval be imposed. The conditions requested include: • the development of a berm, or combination berm and noise attenuation fence, with a minimum height of 5.5 metres; • all dwellings shall be setback a minimum of 30 metres from the railway property line; • ground vibration transmission is to be tested and measures employed to ensure acceptable levels are achieved; • warning clauses on title of all purchase and sale agreements; and • erection of 1 .8 m chain link fence on the common property line. i REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 11 accommodated. The Municipality's criteria requires 25 spaces to be provided. The required number of on-street parking spaces is based on the following ratio: One (1) parking space for every three (3) on-street townhouse units; and One (1) parking space for every four (4) semi-detached/link units. 8.5 The proposal provides a mix of single detached dwellings, semi-detached/link dwellings, on-street and block townhouse units. The mix of units is in conformity with the policies of both the Regional and Local Official Plans. Furthermore, the proposal is considered to be in conformity with the Provincial Policy Statement. 8.6 The applicant has submitted an Environmental Noise Impact Report in support of the application. The report suggests that noise attenuation measures must bre- i implemented to achieve Ministry of the Environment and Energy standards for dwellings proposed adjacent to Baseline Road and adjacent the railway. In addition, warning clauses are required for lots adjacent to both Baseline Road and iGreen Road, as well as CPR line. In the case of the railway the report recommends a 4.6 metre high barrier comprised of earth berm, 2.5 metres, and acoustical fencing, 2.1 metre. The Municipality will not accept noise fencing on top of the berm, with no openings, and a chain link fence demarcating the property line. The area between the two fences is not typically accessible for maintenance, as the acoustical fence is to have no gaps. However, development adjacent the railway is proposed to be a block townhouse development. This block will be developed through site plan approval as one large block. As a result, staff are confident that a solution to this issue can be found prior to development of said block. I 8.7 The developer submitted a phasing plan for the subject development. The phasing plan was approved by Public Works, illustrating three (3) phases of development (see Attachment No 2). Phase one (1) is to be adjacent to Baseline Road and is sequential to 18T-90050 which Committee and Council considered and recommended Draft Approval to in June 1998. 1333 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 12 8.8 Public Works staff have further commented, as noted in section 7.10 and 7.11, that the Municipality's Development Charge By-law must be amended to include the construction of the neighbourhood park, construction of Green Road, reconstruction Baseline Road, and the installation of street lighting and sidewalks on Baseline Road and Green Road, prior to draft approval and registration of any phase subsequent to phase one of this plan. 8.9 Council is not expected to consider a new Development Charges By-law until the Spring of next year. In consideration of the comments from Public Works and the policies of the Clarington Official Plan dealing with Growth Management, (Section j5.5 of this report), it appears that phases two (2) and three (3) are premature to be considered for draft approval at this time. As a result, Staff recommend that a partial -- draft approval be provided to the lands included in Phase I of the phasing plan only. The balance of the lands are considered premature at this time, and should be left as a future development block. 9. CONCLUSION 9.1 In consideration of the comments received from the circulated agencies, Staff recommend partial draft approval of the proposed draft plan of subdivision, as red- line revised in Attachment No. 4, and subject to the conditions contained in Attachment No. 3. Furthermore, the subject rezoning application is recommended for approval with a Holding (H) symbol as it applies to the phase I lands. The holding symbol will be removed by By-law once the owner has enter into a subdivision agreement with the Municipality, to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works and the Director of Planning and Development. i I 1 554 REPORT NO.: PD- 97-98 PAGE 13 i Respectfully.submitted, Reviewed by, Franklin Wu, M.C.I.P., R.P.P.
