Maciver, Director of Legislative Services/Municipal Solicitor, regarding Backyard
Hens (Item 1d of the General Government Committee Report). She thanked the
Members of Council for allowing her to speak to the matter. Ms. Allison asked if

2 of the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the Planning and Development
Committee Report)
Stephen Selby was present via electronic means regarding the Public Meeting
Notice for Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the
Planning and Development Committee Report). He thanked Members of Council
for the opportunity to speak and explained that he owns property and farms on a
large area within, and adjacent to, the Special Study Area 2. Mr. Selby explained
that he operates an agricultural business which involves borrowing against his
land for various expenses. He added that the cost of business is increasing due
to many factors including the increase of various taxes. Mr. Selby stated that
adding his land into the Greenbelt would essentially destroy the value of his
3
Clariwwa
February 8 to 9, 2021 Council Meeting
land. He continued by explaining this designation would result in lenders
requiring additional security and would be a major threat to his business. Mr.
Selby added that the Greenbelt design expansion undermines farmersCability to
use their agricultural land. He concluded by saying that the Greenbelt expansion
will result in a decline in the farming industry and farmland being sold. He
answered questions from the Members of Council.

8.3 Bob Schickedanz, President, Ontario Home Builders Association,
Regarding Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington
Official Plan
Bob Schickedanz, President, Ontario Home Builders Association, was present
via electronic means regarding the Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area
2 of the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the Planning and Development
Committee Report). He explained that he was present in his capacity as the
President of the Ontario Home Builders Association. Mr. Schickedanz noted
that, to accommodate growth in Ontario, we need to build a million homes and
that delaying the work of the many of the Secondary Plans negatively impacts
the housing supply and building activity in the Municipality of Clarington. He
stated that constraining the housing supply is not an option and this will magnify
the cost of housing for homebuyers. Mr. Schickedanz added that both delaying
these Secondary Plans and the implications of COVID-19 will be detrimental to
economic recovery. He is supportive of removal of Special Study Area 2 from
the Official Plan but stressed the importance of the work on the Secondary Plans
continuing to allow the housing shortage issues to be addressed. Mr.
Schickedanz answered questions from the Members of Council.
8.4 Johnathan Schickedanz, President, Durham Region Home Builders'
Association, Regarding Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area 2 of
the Clarington Official Plan
Johnathan Schickedanz, President, Durham Region Home Builders' Association,

Clariwwa
February 8 to 9, 2021 Council Meeting
Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the Planning and
Development Committee Report). He noted he is also the Manager of Far Sight
Homes and explained that Far Sight does not currently have any land in the
proposed Secondary Plan areas. Mr. Schickedanz advised that he supports the
change for the Special Study Area 2 to be part of the Official Plan review
process. He requested that the timing be reviewed and adjusted to avoid delays
of the three Secondary Plans that are already under way. Mr. Schickedanz
explained that they need to continue to build to accommodate the housing
markets and the delay will increase costs and delays of the new homes being
built. He concluded by requesting that Council consider adjusting the start date
of the review of the Special Study Area 2 to allow the Secondary Plan work to
continue. Mr. Schickedanz answered questions from the Members of Council.
8.5 Robert Webb, Manager, Brookhill North Landowners Group. Inc., Regarding
Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official
Plan
Robert Webb, Manager, Brookhill North Landowners Group. Inc., was present via
electronic means regarding the Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area 2 of
the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the Planning and Development Committee
Report). He noted that he owns property in the proposed Brookhill Secondary
Plan Area. Mr. Webb is asking the Members of Council to not delay the work on
the Brookhill Secondary Plan. He added that reviewing the Special Study Area 2
in the Official Plan would delay all of the Secondary Plan work. Mr. Webb added
that they do not oppose the Special Study Area 2 being removed from the Official
Plan but is requesting that the timing of this review be changed to a later date.
He explained that all of the necessary resources from the Municipality need to
continue to be allocated to these Secondary Plans as the work for the Brookhill
Secondary Plan began back in 2018. Mr. Webb continued by noting they have
been working with the Municipality, but it is critical that these be completed in
timely manner so that the new housing in the area is not further delayed. He
added that the Brookhill North development will bring more residential and
commercial development to the Municipality of Clarington. Mr. Webb concluded
by requesting the work on the Brookhill Secondary Plan continue so that they are
able to meet the completion goal of early 2021. He answered questions from the
Members of Council.
8.6 Ted Watson and Richard Rekker, Regarding Public Meeting Notice for
Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official Plan
Richard Rekker was present via electronic means regarding the Public Meeting
Notice for Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official Plan (Item 4 of the
Planning and Development Committee Report) Mr. Rekker noted that Mr.
Watson was not able to attend this evening due to another commitment and
would be speaking on his behalf of him and his family. He noted that neither
himself nor Mr. Watson are speaking on behalf of the Agricultural Advisory
Committee. Mr. Rekker explained that Mr. Watson was previously on the
Agricultural Advisory Committee and was present at the meeting where the
6"
Clariwwa
February 8 to 9, 2021 Council Meeting
motion was passed in 2011 related to the expansion of the Greenbelt. He
explained that, although Mr. Watson supported the motion, he did not support
areas in the Whitebelt being included in the expansion of the Greenbelt or what
impact this motion would have.
Mr. Rekker advised the Members of Council he was surprised to discover his
property is within Special Study Area 2. He added that he only discovered this
with the approval of the new Home Hardware location and the motion that was
passed to include these areas in the Greenbelt. Mr. Rekker stated that 81 % of
Clarington is in the Greenbelt and the addition of this area would make the
amount to close to 90%. He believes that there is a misunderstanding that the
Agricultural Advisory Committee supports expanding the Greenbelt area. Mr.
Rekker is requesting more consultation with the property owners that will be
included in this proposed expansion as they are families and business owners
who offer employment to the community. He concluded by requesting that the
Special Study Area 2 area be immediately deleted from the Official Plan. Mr.
Rekker answered question from the Members of Council.

Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington Official Plan
Ryan Guetter, Weston Consulting Inc., was present via electronic means
regarding the Public Meeting Notice for Special Study Area 2 of the Clarington
Official Plan (Item 4 of the Planning and Development Committee Report). He
explained that he is representing the two Bowmanville East Landowners Groups
which include the Soper Creek Sub Watershed Study and the Soper Hill's and
Soper Springs Secondary Plans. Mr. Guetter emphasized the importance of
these two projects to the Municipality and added that they are all subject to legal
agreements. He noted that the Bowmanville East development owners do not
take any position on the Special Study Area 2, however there are concerns that
there will be delays to the Secondary Plans if staff resources are diverted. Mr.
Guetter continued by requesting that the existing projects proceed with full staff
resources to ensure they are completed as per the agreements. He concluded
by adding that these developments will supply additional housing and park for the
Municipality of Clarington. Mr. Guetter answered questions from the Members of
Council.

8.8 David Astill, Regarding Addendum to Report PSD -050-20 Draft Plan of
Subdivision and Zoning By-law Amendment to Permit 25 Townhouse
Dwellings in a Common Elements Condominium, Courtice
David Astill, was present via electronic means regarding Addendum to Report
PSD -050-20, Draft Plan of Subdivision and Zoning By-law Amendment to Permit
25 Townhouse Dwellings in a Common Elements Condominium, Courtice. He
noted that many of the residents spoke in opposition to the development in 2019.
Mr. Astill stated that he has concerns with safety and increased traffic. He
believes that the Region of Durham saying they have no issues with the
proposed development is extremely negligent. Mr. Astill added that there has
been talk of the Adelaide Road extension for many years and recently he heard
that they soonest it would be completed it 2027. He explained that 25 townhomes
are too many as this is essentially doubling the amount of homes in one
subdivision. Mr. Astill added that this development does not fit in with the
existing neighbourhood design and that the townhomes will tower over the
existing homes in the area. He stated the residents encourage development
when it does not jeopardize safety and fits in with the existing neighbourhood.
Mr. Astill requested that the Members of Council to not support the approval of
this development.
8.9 Joanna Longworth, Regarding Addendum to Report PSD -050-20 Draft Plan
of Subdivision and Zoning By-law Amendment to Permit 25 Townhouse
Dwellings in a Common Elements Condominium, Courtice
Joanna Longworth was present via electronic means regarding Addendum to
Report PSD -050-20 Draft Plan of Subdivision and Zoning By-law Amendment to
Permit 25 Townhouse Dwellings in a Common Elements Condominium, Courtice.
She noted that she is in opposition of, and has concerns with, the
development. Ms. Longworth noted that last year many residents opposed the
development and the views of the residents have not changed. She stated there
are issues with safety, traffic, and parking and does not feel any of these have
been addressed. Ms. Longworth added that this development does not fit in with
the existing neighbourhood design. She continued by explaining that her main
concern is safety due to the increased traffic and speeding. Ms. Longworth feels
any development should not proceed until the Adelaide Road extension has
taken place. She stated there have been some comparisons with similar
developments in Oshawa and she feels that these are very different from the
subdivision being proposed. Ms. Longworth noted that she would prefer single
family homes be developed. She concluded by requesting that the Members of
Council not support the approval of the development. Ms. Longworth answered
questions from the Members of Council.
