2. BACKGROUND
2.1 On November 29, 1991, the Town of Newcastle Planning and
Development Department received an application to amend Zoning
By-law 84-63 in order to permit the creation of two (2)
additional single family dwelling lots through the consent
process.
2.2 The proposal is situated on a .705 hectare (1.75 acre) parcel
of land located on the west side of Varcoe Road, approximately.
409 metres (1340 ft.) north of Nash Road but is more formally
described as Part Lpt 35, Concession 3 in the former Township
of Darlington. The subject property currently contains two
(2) single family dwellings. Therefore, the .705 hectare
(1.75 acre) parcel would contain a total, of four (4) single
family dwellings.
3. PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS
3.1 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. In addition the appropriate notice was mailed to each
landowner within the prescribed distance.
3.2 As a result of the public notification process, the Planning
and Development Department has not received any written
submissions with respect to the subject application. However,
Staff have received three (3) telephone inquiries from area
residents requesting more detailed information regarding the
proposal. In addition, concerns were expressed regarding the
frontage of the proposed lots.
3.3 In addition, at the Public Meeting, held on March 2, 1992,
three (3) area residents spoke in opposition to the proposal.
....3
J~
REPORT NO. PD-169-92 PAGE 3
The area residents expressed concerns regarding the frontage
of the proposed lots and the possible removal of trees to
facilitate the construction of the new homes.
4 OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY
4.1 Within the existing Durham Regional Official Plan the subject
property is designated Residential while the recommended
Regional Official Plan designates the subject property as a
Living Area. Therefore, the proposal confirms to both the
existing and the recommended Regional Official Plan.
4.2 Within the Town of Newcastle Official Plan, the subject
property is designated Residential. As residential uses are
intended to be the predominant use of lands so designated, the
proposal conforms with the intent of the Town of Newcastle
Official Plan.
5 ZONING BY-LAW COMPLIANCE
5.1 Within the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-
63, the subject property is zoned "Agricultural (A)" which
permit the use of the subject property for agricultural and
agriculturally related uses. Since the applicant is proposing
to create two (2) additional single family dwelling lots, an
amendment to the by-law is required in order to implement the
proposed development through the consent process.
6 AGENCY COMMENTS
6.1 In accordance with departmental procedures, the application
was circulated to obtain comments from other departments and
agencies. The following is a brief synopsis of the comments
received.
6.2 The Town of Newcastle Public Works Department has reviewed the
....4
J~/
REPORT NO. PD-169-92 PAGE 4
application and has no objection to the proposal. However,
the Public Works Department has advised that the applicant
will be required to pay frontage charges for the
reconstruction of Varcoe Road in an amount approved by the
Director of Public Works. The reconstruction charges will be
collected in accordance with a subdivision agreement between
the Town and the developer of Registered Plan 10M-787
(Schleiss and Holland). However, the Planning and Development
Department advises that this condition will be imposed through
the consent process.
6.3 The Community Services Department has reviewed the proposal
and advises that the proposed lots would be serviced by the
Courtice West Park, the Cherry Blossom Parkette and a future
parkette west of Varcoe Road. Therefore, the Community
Services Department has no objection to the proposal but will
require the applicant to provide 5% cash-in-lieu of parkland
dedication with the funds realized credited to the Parks
Reserve Account. This condition will be imposed through the
severance process.
6.4 The balance of the circulated agencies which have, provided
comments are the Town of Newcastle Fire Department, Regional
Planning Department, Regional Works Department and Central
Lake Ontario Conservation Authority. None of the
aforementioned agencies have provided objectionable comments.
7 STAFF COMMENTS
7.1 The applicant is proposing to create two (2) additional single
family dwelling lots with a minimum of 13.0 metres of frontage
between the two (2) existing single family dwellings on the
west side of Varcoe Road.
....5
REPORT NO. PD-169-92 PAGE 5
7.2 Currently, there exists eight (8) single family dwelling on
the east side of Varcoe Road between Hartsfield Drive and
Oakfield Gate, all of which have 15.0 metres of frontage.
Some of these home owners expressed concerns that the proposed
dwellings should have a minimum of 15.0 metres of frontage in
order to maintain the character of the existing development
created through Registered Plan 1oM-787.
7.3 However, Staff advise that Registered Plan 10M-787 created a
variety of housing styles including single family dwellings
on 12 metres of frontage and semi-detached/link dwellings on
18 metres of frontage. Staff is satisfied that the creation
of these 13 metre frontage lots is in harmony with the
existing development in the neighbourhood which provides a
variety of housing types and mixes in conformity with the
draft housing policies.
7.4 Moreover, the creation of the two (2) additional dwellings on
13 metres of frontage would satisfy the objective of Section
6.1.1(i) of the Town of Newcastle Official Plan which strives
to provide a range of housing types, sizes, prices and tenure
arrangements in order to provide accommodation for households
of differing socio-economic characteristics.
7.5 Finally, the application can be considered to be in conformity
with Section 6.1.3 (iv) of the Town of Newcastle Official Plan
which permits and promotes infilling on existing road
frontages between two (2) existing dwellings.
8 CONCLUSION
8.1 In consideration of the comments contained within this report,
the Planning and Development Department would have no
objection to the approval of the attached zoning by-law

amendment, as applied for. The amending zoning by-law would
provide for an appropriate zone category in order to
facilitate the creation of two (2) additional lots through the
consent process.
Respectfully submitted, Recommended for presentation
to the Committee
