2. LOCATION
2.1 The 656150 Ontario Limited (Dinnerex Inc.) site is located on
the south side of Highway #2 in Courtice between Townline Road
South and Darlington Boulevard. The property currently
contains a 2,309 m2 commercial development. The legal
description for the site is Part Lot 35, Concession 2, Former
Township of Darlington.
3. BACKGROUND
3.1 On June 12, 1992, the Town of Newcastle received an
application from Joe Wood representing 656150 Ontario Limited
(Dinnerex Inc.) to amend the Town of Newcastle Official Plan
and Comprehensive Zoning By-Law 84-63 to permit additional
commercial uses in addition to the special purpose commercial
uses currently permitted. Because of the recessionary
economic climate, Dinnerex Inc. has expressed difficulty in
leasing floorspace to potential tenants because the current
zoning limits the types of uses to special purpose commercial
uses. He is therefore seeking to increase the types of
commercial uses permitted on the site.
3.2 The initial application for the existing development was
received by the Town during 1990. Site plan approval was
granted by the Town on December 12, 1990.
4. EXISTING AND SURROUNDING USE5
4.1 Existing Uses: An existing 2,309 m2 special purpose
commercial facility containing several
eating establishments.
4.2 Surrounding Uses: East: Car lot
North: Vacant commercial space

5. OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY
5.1 Within the existing 1976 and 1991 Durham Region Official
Plans, the subject lands are within "Sub-Central Area"
designations. Uses permitted within these areas are further
defined by the Town of Newcastle's Official Plan and
Comprehensive Zoning By-Law 84-63. The proposed use appears
to conform to the existing commercial policies.
5.2 Under the Town of Newcastle Official Plan, the subject lands
are located within Official Plan Amendment #41 which is
currently before the Minister of Municipal Affairs for
approval. This Amendment further defines the types of land
uses permitted under the Durham Region Official Plan
designation for this area. The .site is designated "Gateway
Commercial Area" which permits special purpose commercial
uses. The applicant is seeking to amend these policies to
permit a broader range of commercial uses.
6. ZONING BY-LAW COMPLIANCE
6.1 The subject lands are currently zoned "Special Purpose
Commercial (C5)". The zone permits land-extensive commercial
uses such as furniture/major appliance/office furniture/motor
vehicle retail establishments, building supply outlets,
liquor/beer outlets, garden/nursery sales, fruit and vegetable
outlets, catalogue stores, motor and recreational vehicle
sales, restaurants, places of worship and entertainment, hotel
or motel, private clubs, veterinary clinic and offices. The
applicant is seeking to amend the zoning to permit general
retail commercial uses.
