OF DARLINGTON OUR FILE: DEV 86-67 RECOMMENDATIONS: It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to Council the following: 1. THAT Report PD-8-87 be received; and 2. THAT the application for rezoning Part of Lot 28, Concession 3, former Township of Darlington, submitted by Mrs. Mary Pollard, to permit the development of one (1) additional residential lot be approved; and 3. TIiAT the attached by-law be forwarded to Council for approval. BACKGROUND: On October 27, 1986 the Planning Department received an application from Mrs. Mary Pollard to rezone a parcel of land located in Part of Lot 28, Concession 3, former Township of Darlington to permit the development of one (1) additional residential lot. The subject lands are currently zoned "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" in the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63, as amended. ...2 ~~h REPURT NO.: PD-8-87 Page 2 Within the Courtice Urban Area, the site is designated as "Residential". The proposed development conforms to the intent of this Plan. Staff would note for the Committee's information that, pursuant to Council's resolution of July 26, 1982 and the requirements of the Planning Act, the appropriate signage acknowledging the application was installed on the subject lands. Staff would note that no objections to the proposal were received at the writing of this Report with respect to the amendment requested. ~ In accordance with departmental procedures, the application was circulated to obtain comments from other departments and agencies as noted with Staff Report PD-281-86. Staff would note the following departments/agencies, in providing conments, offered no objections to the application as filed: - Newcastle Public Works Department - Newcastle Community Services Department - Newcastle Fire Department - Newcastle Building Department - Peterborough-Victoria-Northumberland and New castle Roman Catholic Separate School Board - Regional Health Services Department - Ministry of Natural Resources - Regional Works Department The applicant has filed an application for severance with the Land Division Committee (LD 551/86). Staff recommended that the application be tabled unti 1 the rezoning i ssue was dealt with. Notwithstandi ng Staff's recommendation, the Committee conditionally approved the application. After reviewing the application, in light of the intended future development, Staff has recommended that an 'L' shaped lot be rezoned. The Regional Health Services Department has required that the lot be of sufficiently large size to permit a septic system to be placed on the site. 1~here is also concern that the location of the house and septic does not adversely affect the existing homes to the north and south. Staff feel that we can control the location of the house sufficiently so as to minimize these possible impacts. ...3 ~~h~ REPORT NO.: PD-8-87 Page 3 The Regional Works Department provided the following comment to the Land Division Committee: "Please be advised that our department has no objection to the granting of the above-noted severance application. Also be advised that a Regional watermain and sanitary sewer main are not available opposite the frontage of the severed and retained lands. However, based on the Regional Official Plan, the severed land is within the designated urban service area. Therefore, if the Land Division Committee approves the above-noted application the Owner will have to enter into an agreement with the Region to pay the Regional Development Levies and to provide for future sanitary sewer and water servicing. In addition to the foregoing, our Department will require the dedication of 3.048m (10.00 ft.) of road widening free and clear of all encumbrances across the total frontage of the property." These requirements will be fulfilled when the applicant finalizes the Land Division Application. It is apparent that the Works Department is willing to permit this development because it is infilling in nature, notwithstanding the fact that Courtice Road is a Type "A" Arterial road. The Planning Department has changed the proposed lot lines from the original application in order to limit the development to one (1) lot. This has been done because the lot will have to be developed on private services and also to protect the "Environmenta1 Protection (EP)" portion of the property. By leaving the rear portion with the existing property, St aff feels that the Ministry of Natural Resources concerns can be best addressed. The area to be rezoned as "Residential" is more than large enough to construct a home and sti11 leave the creek and the "EP" zone undisturbed. ...4 ~~h~ REPORT NU.: PU-8-87 Page 4 'O~ The comments from the Ministry of Natural Resources were as follows: "A tributary of 61ack Creek traverses the rear portion of the subject property. Due to the fact that Black Creek is a Coldwater stream, we have concerns regarding the conveyance of sediment-laden waters via this tributary to B1 ack Creek. We, therefore, recommend that the "Envi ronmental Protection (EP)" zone remain on the property. The natural buffer area, maintained by the EP zone will assist in filtering sediment from stormwater runoff. The remaining property should provide sufficient area to allow for a residential dwelling." The rezoning of the site is to take into account the fact that this is to be an urbanized area of the Town. The "Urban Residential Type One Exception (R1-1)" category has been chosen because this is the zone which is most representative of the area. The comments reflect no objection to the single lot, but it is clear that more than one could present problems. Staff has therefore, recommended that only 22.86m (75 ft.) of frontage be rezoned. This will remove the 'jog' proposed by the applicant for the south lot line. This will also limit the amount of development to one lot. The depth to be rezoned is 91.44m (300 ft.). This is the average depth of the lots to the north and provides more than sufficent area to locate a home and the well/septic system. Staff has no objections to this application as it represents an infilling situation. This area has been designated for development in the long term and this application appears to represent no conflict with these future plans. Staff would therefore recommend approval of the application as described in the attached by-law and as shown on trie attached schedule.
