THAT Report PD-10-87 be received; and 2. THAT Staff be authorized to amend the application to conform with the current Regional Policy regarding Clusters and that Staff bring forward a recommendation at the earliest possible opportunity. BACKGROUND: On 1~iay 29, 1986, the Planning Department received an application from Mr. J. Victor, Q.C. on behalf of Mr. E. Collins to permit the development of one (1) additional residential lot. On July 21, 1986, the Planning Department presented a Report PD-190-86 and Council passed the following resolution: "THAT the application submitted by Mr. J. Victor, Q.C. on behalf of Mr. Collins, to rezone a parcel of land located in Part of Lot 18, Concession 2, former Township of Darlington to permit the development of one (1) additional lot be tabled to afford the applicant the opportunity for further dialogue with the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Auti~ority Staff in consideration of the policies within the Durham Regional Official Plan pertaining to "Environmentally Sensitive Lands." ...2 ~J ~~ REPURT NO.: PD-10-87 Page 2 After discussions had resolved the problems which the Conservation Autho rity had, Report PD-247-86 was presented to the General Purpose and Administration Committee on October 20, 1986. The following resolution was approved: "THAT the application submitted by Mr. J. Victor, Q.C., on behalf of hlr. E. Collis , to rezone a parcel of land located in Part of Lot 18, Concession 2, former Township of Darlington to permit the development of one (1) addi ti oral resi denti al 1 of be approved and that the by-law attached hereto be forwarded to Council for approval." On Monday, October 27, 1986, Council approved the rezoning application. Staff had recommended approval based upon the past practice of approving "Rural Cluster (RC)" zones. This entailed recognizing only the area to be developed. The three options available at this time are: i) take the appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board; ii) revise the application to conform to current Regional Policy; and iii) repeal the by-law and deny the subject application. Staff prefers to proceed with the second option since both Staff and Council supported the application. The Region's amendment to the Official Plan requires the recognition, within the Zoning By-law, of a number of residential lots as a Cluster. In this case, it appears to be feasible to * make such a delineation. The attached key plan outlines the area which Staff is proposing for the amended application. The amendment will be to rezone seven (7) lots as a Cluster. If the recommendations are adopted, Staff will proceed to process the revised application. This will include a full circulation to owners within 120m and technical agencies previously circulated. Another public notice will be posted and a public meeting held. This will be treated as though a new application was filed. ...3 ~c~~ REPURT NU .: PD-10-87 Page 3 It is therefore recommended that Council authorize Staff to process the revised application in order to respond to the Region's appeal.
