CORPORATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF CLARINGTON 40 TEMPERANCE STREET, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO L1C 3A6 T (905)623-3379 F (905)623-0830 REPORT NO.: PSD-043-11 PAGE 2 Submitted by: Davi . Crome, MCIP, RPP Director of Planning Services FL/df 27 April 2011 Reviewed by: o Franklin Wu, Chief Administrative Officer REPORT NO.: PSD-043-11 PAGE 3 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 In 2000, the Municipality completed a Land Acquisition Strategy Report that provided a phased approach to the acquisition of land for a variety of public uses. The Strategy was intended to serve as a guide for land acquisition in accordance with the policies of the Official Plan. In February 2007, an update to the Land Acquisition Study and Financial Analysis was completed and adopted by Council. The valleyland portion of the property at 1220 Haines Road (Attachment 1) was identified in both studies as a long term acquisition. The Municipality owns the Soper Creek valleylands to the west and the Bowmanville Cemetery to the east. The acquisition of these environmental protection lands adjacent to Soper Creek would be for erosion control and floodplain purposes. Some residual land may become part of the cemetery; however, the majority of the land will be for environmental protection. 1.2 At the meeting held on November 24, 2008, Council considered correspondence from Mr. Neil Clark of Greeley Containment and Rework Inc. regarding his request to enter into discussions with the Municipality for the possible exchange of lands involving 1220 Haines Road owned by 1472583 Ontario Limited and other properties that the MuniCipality owns along Haines Road (Attachment 2). 1.3 There have been ongoing discussions between Staff and a representative of 1472583 Ontario Limited regarding the properties suggested in the exchange. The discussions included the value of the property being offered to the Municipality. The lands Mr. Clark was seeking are future expansion area for the cemetery and not proposed for disposal. 1.4 In mid-February of 2009, the Municipality was asked if they would like to purchase the land outright and what their offer would be. The Municipality had had an appraisal prepared in 2002 when attempting to purchase the property from the previous owner. At that time the land was valued at $33,000. 1472583 Ontario Limited purchased the land for $48,000 in 2003. The majority of the land is Environmental Protection and within the floodplain of the Soper Creek. There is some tableland to the west of the cemetery and a 3 metre wide lane from Haines Street to this property. Other than the lane there is no road access to this property, the lane does not constitute a legal road access. Municipal Staff offered to take a recommendation of $55,000 for the entire parcel to Council for approval. 1.5 1472583 Ontario Limited appealed the assessed value of the land to MPAC for reassessment as managed forest. In late 2010 representatives of 1472583 Ontario Limited again contacted the Municipality with an offer to sell the property to the Municipality for $90,000. Staff indicated the lands being purchased must be close to the estimated fair market value, and since the lands are Environmental Protection the significant increase in the purchase price cannot be justified. However, there is an approximate 1.6 acre (0.56 ha) portion of the lands that are developable and the Municipality could sever these lands and leave them in the ownership of one of Mr. Clark's companies if the parcel were melded to the property to the immediate south. 1.6 Since November 2010 we have been in ongoing discussions with representatives of 1472583 Ontario Limited. CLOCA has indicated what lands would be developable and mapped these lands (Attachment 3). The final alignment of the property to remain in 1472583 Ontario Limited ownership will have to be surveyed once both parties have signed the Offer to Sell. REPORT NO.: PSD-043-11 PAGE 4 1.7 The closing date of the transaction is June 2, 2011 before which the Municipality will have to assure itself that the environmental condition of the Property will not require remediation measures to be undertaken to make it or any portion of it suitable as a cemetery or for use by members of the public as open space accessible to the public. 2.0 CONCLUSION 2.1 The valleyland portion of this property is an environmentally sensitive area which has been identified in the Council adopted Land Acquisition Strategy Report for acquisition. The Municipality owns the Soper Creek valleylands to the west and the tablelands to the east, which include the Bowmanville cemetery. The Municipality may utilize any tableland portion of the property that abuts the cemetery as expansion of the cemetery although this is very limited. The lands incorporate a 3 metre wide lane that effectively prevents the orderly expansion of the Bowmanville Cemetery, dividing the existing and future expansion areas. The acquisition of this site would contribute to the Land Acquisition Strategy's goal of public ownership of the Soper Creek valley and facilitates future trail connections from the existing Soper Creek trail to the Clarington Technology Park. 2.2 The area of the parcel to be acquired is approximately 16.4 acres. At an acquisition price of $55,000, the purchase price per acre is $3,350. The Municipality has had several appraisals completed on environmentally protected lands over the past several years. The average per acre price is in the range of $3,000 to $3,500. 2.3 Attachment 4 is the Offer to Sell which has been signed by the property owner. Should Council approve this acquisition, a survey will be prepared for registration purposes that will determine the exact boundary of the lands to be retained by the owner. Staff are recommending that the property acquisition be approved.
