Stephenson 9.2 Proposal: To extend the lapsing date for the draft approved Plan of Subdivision until August 2014 1.3 Area: 1.84 hectares (4.55 acres) 1.4 Location: The lands front on the west side of Rudetl Road between Given Road and Highway 35/115 in Newcastle Village (see Attachment 1) 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 On August 19, 2008 Proposed Draft Plan of Subdivision S-C-2007-0001 was issued draft approval. The draft approved plan includes 28 single detached units/lots and two blocks for future development (see Attachment 2). 2.2 A standard provision within the conditions of draft approval states that if final approval of the subdivision plan is not given within three years of the draft approval date, draft approval will lapse and the file shall be closed. However, reasonable extensions to draft approval may be granted by the approval authority as per Sections 51 (32) and (33) of the Planning Act. Where approval authorities provide a timeframe where an approved Draft Plan of Subdivision lapses after a period of no less than three (3) years, the approval authority may extend the approval for a time period specified by the approval authority and may further extend it; but no extension is permissible if the approval lapses before the extension is given. The approval for Draft Plan of Subdivision S-C- 2007-0001 will lapse on August 19, 2011 if an extension is not granted. 2.3 On February 28, 2011, a request and fee were received for extension of draft approval for a further six (8) years. The Owner has advised that the draft plan has not proceeded to final approval and registration as she has been seeking a land developer/purchaser to purchase the property and proceed with the final engineering approvals. She noted the property has not sold due to the slow economic climate for home sales in the area which has affected the progress of the extension of municipal services to the site through the abutting development areas. The extended time period is requested as it is the owner's impression that Subdivision S-C-2007-0001 will not proceed to development until a sign cant portion of the development across the road gets built. 3.0 STAFF COMMENTS 3.1 The purpose of this report is to consider whether the conditions of draft approval should lapse on August 19, 2011 as scheduled or be reasonably extended. REPORT NO.: PSD-048-11 PAGE 3 3.2 The applicant has requested extension to the draft approval for a period of an additional six (6) years, until August 2017. Conditions of draft approval are typically approved with a three (3) year timeframe as permitted in the Planning Act, however, other than the economic climate the applicant has not provided a rationale for the longer timeframe requested. 3.3 Subdivision S-C-2007-0001 is part of the Foster Northeast Neighbourhood and is across Rudell Road from draft approved subdivision application 18T-89059 which is being developed by Lindvest/H&R. Lindvest will register Phase I shortly which includes portions of the lands fronting on Rudell Road. 3.4 In consideration of the progress being made on the adjacent lands, including servicing and construction of model homes, development of the subject plan of subdivision would not appear to have obvious reasons for delay. Although staff can support an extension to draft approval, six years is double the typical timeframe allotted. Staff recommends an extension of three (3) years. This will allow Council to review the application again against the policies of the day, following the completion of the Official Plan review, should the development not proceed to final approval and registration in that timeframe. 3.5 Taxes for the subject property are paid in full 3.6 A by-law authorizing the execution of an agreement for the subject lands was not adopted when Council first considered supporting draft approval. In order to avoid a separate memo and by-law in the future when the owner wishes to pursue an agreement, staff recommends the passing of a by-law authorizing the execution of an agreement as described by the attached by-law (Attachment 3), facilitating final approval of the plan of subdivision. 4.0 RECOMMENDATION 4.1 Inconsideration of the comments noted above; it is recommended that draft approval be extended for a period of three (3) years, ending August 19, 2014. Furthermore, staff recommends the passing of a by-law authorizing the execution of a subdivision agreement as described by the attached By-law (Attachment 3).
