THAT Report PD-153-87 be received; and 2. TNAT the application to amend the Enniskillen Hamlet Development Plan submitted by Ms. Barbara Thajer be approved in principle and forwarded to Regional Council for review and comment; and 3. THAT a copy of Staff Report PD-153-87 and Council's decision be forwarded to the applicant. BACKGROUND: On March 26, 1987, the Planning Department received an application submitted by Ms. Barbara Thajer to amend the Enniskillen Hamlet Development Plan to increase the maximum number of lots permitted in the southeast quadrant of the Hamlet from "22" to "23". The application seeks to sever Lot 19, Plan lOM-775 into two (2) residential building lots. ...2 ~~a~ REPORT NO.: PD-153-87 Page 2 The Town of Newcastle Official Plan (Section 9.11) states that an application for development by registered plan of subdivision or consent shall be accompanied by a detailed Engineering Report based on test drilling which confirms soil conditions satisfactory for the effective operation of a private waste disposal system, no adverse effects upon existing water supplies and an adequate supply of potable water to service the proposed development, and an adequate separation between water table and septic ti le fields. In accordance with this requirement, the applicant submitted a letter from Morrison Beatty Limited, Consulting Engineers and Hydrolgeologists. The letter is summarized below: "Morrison Beatty Limited completed a groundwater availability study in April 1986 for the 22-lot subdivision. Based on the findings of the study we concluded that there was an adequate supply of groundwater for individuals wells. A description of the hydrogeological conditions on the site may be found in our report (Groundwater Availability Study, Proposed Residential Subdivision, Part of Lot 18, Concession 7, Township of Darlington; Morrison Beatty Limited, April 1986). We recommended that the subdivision be draft approved on the basis of a sufficient groundwater supply. We have reassessed the geologic and hydrogeologic data available for the area and conclude that there is an adequate quantity of groundwater for a 23-lot subdivision. This assssment is based on the same recommendations outlined in our report. The recommendations are as follows: 1. Groundwater development in the upper aquifer be restricted because of the vulnerability of this zone to contamination. Development in the lower overburden aquifer is recommended. 2. The well on the severance lot should be drilled, equipped with steel casing and a well screen and properly grouted. The depth to the lower overburden aqui fer i s about 56m (185 ft) on-site, based on the records of the two test wells on the site. The thickness of the aquifer is about 5m. Further details may be found in the report referenced above." Copies of the letter were forwarded to the Ministry of the Environment and the Region of Durham Health Unit for their review and comment. In accordance with Departmental policy, the subject application was forwarded to various agencies for comment. The following is a summary of the comments received to date: ...3 ~~) REPORT NO.: PD-153-87 Page 3 Region of Durham Planning Department "We have reviewed this matter and have no comments to make. The Region's conditions financially and otherwise can be dealt with through the related Land Division application. As you are aware, any amendment to a Hamlet Development Plan must be reviewed by Regional Council prior to adoption by your Council." The following agencies indicated no objection to the subject application: - Town of Newcastle Fire Department - Region of Durham Health Unit Comments are still to be received from the following agencies: - Town of Newcastle Public Works Department - Town of Newcastle Community Services Dept. - Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority - Ministry of the Environment COMMENT: The Town of Newcastle Official Plan (Section 9.3 viii) states that new residential lots in Hamlets shall generally be 0.4 hectares in area. However, the Official Plan (Section 9.11 ii) further states that if evidence satisfactory to the Town and the Health Unit has been produced which indicates that a reduction in the minimum lot area is warranted, Council may approve such a reduction only so far as the minimum lot size is not reduced to below 0.3 hectares. Staff further note that the lands subject of the Hamlet Plan Amendment application are zoned "Residential Hamlet (RH)" by By-law 84-63. The minimum lot area and frontage requirements of the "RH" zone are 0.3 hectares and 30 metres respectively. The applicant's lot is 0.72 hectares in area and has a frontage of 70.8 metres. The lot could be severed into two (2) lots in conformity with the "RH" zone provisions. As well, the average size of lots in the subdivision would be 0.43 hectares after the proposed severance, thereby also complying with the Official Plan requirements. Staff note however that the two (2) new lots would be smaller in area than all but two (2) of the existing lots in the subdivision. ...4 ~~a) REPORT NO .: PD-153-87 Page 4 Inasmuch as the subject lot is part of a registered plan of subdivision for which a Subdivision Agreement has been registered, any newly created lot should be required to comply with the provisions of the Agreement in respect of such matters as the issuance of a building permit, occupancy of dwelling, architectural control, and lot grading. These requirements will be imposed as Conditions of Approval of the related Land Division application. Staff note that, although a number of comments from circulated agencies remain outstanding, the purpose of the amendment is to change the maximum number of lots within this area of the hamlet by one (1). If a problem is identified which can not be overcome, Council can withhold final approval of the Hamlet Plan Amendment. In the meantime, Staff feel it would be appropriate to forward the draft amendment to Regional Council pursuant to the requirements of the Durham Regional Official Plan. Upon receipt of all outstanding comments and Regional Council's position, a subsequent report, in respect of final approval, will be submitted for Council's consideration.
