Mr. Maurice O'Neill, the applicant, appeared in support
of this application. No other person appeared in support of
or in opposition to this application,
As a matter of record the Committee visited this property
on Wednesday, June 11, 1969 accompanied by Mr. O'Neill, The
topography of the land was more evident than on a former visit
as weather conditions in February did not permit a complete view
of the property.
Page 2
Meeting of Committee of Adjustment, June 30, 1969;
The land proposed to be sold is bottom land and creek
valley and has limited agricultural use, but could be used
as land on which a resort dwelling could be constructed.
The creek mentioned is ever flowing with clear water.
Information learned from lifetime neighbours of Mr. O'Neill
verified that this land has never been worked for croppind,being
a rough wooded area.
The Committee noted that the applicant has applied
to sever non -arable land in an Agricultural Area, which lands
are apparently to be sold to a person interested in acquiring
a lot for a "resort dwelling". Groups of children would
apparently hold picnics there under the supervision of the pro-
posed purchaser. The creek winding through the property and the
tree growth on the lands would indicate that this was suitable
for such land use.
'The Committee of Adjustment is not, under The Planning Act,
intended in any way to replace either the Council or the Planning
Board. The Planning Board present their ideas in the form of
draft or proposed by-laws to the Council who, as the elected re-
presentatives of the people may either approve of them as they
are presented; or make certain amendments or reject them entirely.
Usually the whole future of a Planning Area, in this case,
a Township, is indicated by way of an Official Plan. 'While such
a plan is under consideration in the Township of Clarke, it is
not presently in existence. The sole guide to what direction the
Committee of Adjustment should take is the intent in restricted
area by-laws 1592 and 1613 with amendments thereto which by-laws
are now before the Ontario Municipal Board for approval,
It is quite obvious that the Committee of Adjustment would
have a much easier task if they could look to an Official Plan
for some guidance. This will be the case at some future date,
but now The Committee must act on the information available and
the law as it now exists.
Mr. O'Neill and others, however, should be clearly warned
that this Committee has no jurisdiction whatsoever in the grant-
ing of building permits and the fact that the land is severed
does not automatically entitle the purchaser to a building permit.
The question as to the entitlement to a building permit is a
matter between the applicant and the Township authorities.
As stated in previous minutes, the applicant's lands
of approximately 100 acres is zoned in three categories.
(a) Development Zone;
(b) "Rl";
,(c) Agricultural;
The lands to be severed are definitely in an Agricultural
Zone.
The Committee.
(1) Referred to the minutes of meetings February 10,
March 11, March 12, March 18, April 149 May 51
June 2, 1969;
(2) Recalled their former inspection of the property
on Saturday February 22, 1969; and
were of the opinion that the land was non -arable land that was
suitable for a resort dwelling.

Meeting of Committee of Adjustment, June 30, 1969;
The applicant was instructed to complete his application
by submitting a prqar plan of survey, prepared by an Ontario
Land Surveyor.
The Committee explained to Mr. O'Neill that they would
require a condition be inserted in the deed as follows:
"that unless and until the land is re -zoned by due legal
process to some other use; the land be used for recreational
purposes only"

As business arising from minutes of past minutes this application
was brought forward for further consideration.
Mr. John Perdue, the proposed purchaser appeared in support
of this application. No other person appeared in support of, or
in opposition to this application.
As a matter of record the Committee visited the property on
Wednesday June 11, 1969 and determined from neighbors the exact
location of the lands in question.
The following facts were noted:.
(1) A large mobile home was erected on the property and a
pole had been erected to bring hydro to the trailer,
but no wires were connected;
(2) _Mr. and Mrs. Lambier owned the abutting land which
the purchaser had apparently worked the year before
for one Maurice Decoutre of Delhi;;
(3) Some cattle and horses were at pasture on the
lands concerned; -
Based on these observations and the enquiries made, and the'
evidence given by the'proposed purchaser at a former hearing, the
Committee were satisfied on the following points:
(1) The proposed purchaser formerly sharecropped
on -abutting land to the land he proposes to
purchase and -is apparently staying in the area
where he believes�he can be gainfully employed
in agriculture;
(2) There,is no topographical reason why the lands would
not be suitable for the construction of a house;
The question then arises as to whether or not, onthesefacts,
a severance should.be granted.
The applicant's agent, Mervyn B. Kelly Esq., of Messrs.
Strike & Strike, Barristers & Solicitors, Bowmanville, Ontari0
did not appear, due to absence on holidays.
The Committee were of the opinion that this application should
be adjourned awaiting Mr. Kelly's return and the Secretary was

The Secretary -Treasurer presented the followina material
to the meetingx
T1) Correspondence from Mr. T.C. McKnight, 26
'Cataraqui Cres. Scarborough, Ontario, dated
June'17, 1969. The Committee noted the
contents thereof;
(2) A Plan of Survey, prepared by M.D. Brown, OLS.,
Bowmanville, Ontario, dated June.12, }969
and numbered 69076;
As a matter of record the Committee visited the property
on Wednesday June 11, 1969 and observed the following::
(1) The property abutts the East limits of'the
Village of Newcastle and is located in a cul-de-sac
abutting the south side of Highway #401 and on
the East by the Canadian Pacific Railway right-of-
way and on the west by the dividing line between
the Village of Newcastle and the Township of Clarke;
(2) Two foundations were erected in the area and a
completed house is on one foundation and the other
foundation is ready to have a house built on it;;
(3) The character of the area has nothing to discourage
the construction of houses except a noise factor
from the Railway and Highway 4401;
(4) Drainage and other features appeared adequate•,
The Committee:
(1) Perused the Plan of Survey presented and noted
the area shown to be 0.85 acres.MraMcKnight explained
that in making his calculation of 98.13 acres
as presented in his application, he had made an
arithmetical error. To obtain the square footage
on the angled portion of the property, he had
doubled the triangle to make it a rectangle, then
forgot to halve it when figuring the total per-
centage.
Mr. McKnight requested permissiork to amend the application
accordingly and this was granted.
The Committee considered all the facts presented and were
of the opinion that relief from the by-law was not required
insofar as the proposed dwelling was concerned, as the dimensions
met the requirements of Table 2 "R" 2 in respect to the total
floor area. The minor variance of,0.85 acres as opposed to
the required 1 acre minimum lot size for Estate Lots was the
matter under considerationl
The Committee referred to a Decision in The Municipal World
April 1969, "John Pfeffer and the Committee of.Adjustment of
the Borough of North York, O.M.B. P7673-68, 19th February,1969
"If you define a minor variance mathematiclly you must
inevitably reach the same conclusion as the Committee
of Adjustment that this is a major and not a minor
Variance.
"In the Boards view however there is a good deal to be
said in a case such as the present to look at the overall
picture and consider whether, if the variance is granted,
the general intent and purpose of the by-law would be
mainta"ined."

to the meeting:
(1) Correspondence from W. Kay Lycett B.A., Barrister
& Solicitor, Orono, Ontario, dated June 18, 1969.
The Committee noted the contents thereof.
The Committee instructed the Secretary to send a.copy of
the following interim_decigion,to:
W. Kay Lycett B.A.,'Barrister & Solicitor,
Orono.,. Ontario,
Dr. Charlotte Horner, Northumberland & Durham
Health Unit, Box 337,
Cobourg, Ontario,
Mr. Horace Best, Building Inspector for the
Township,of Clarke.
Mrs. Dorothy Holmes, an abutting land owner to the
South East of the lot in question appeared and expressed some
concern over the fact that from her observation a flood plain
exists in the general area,of the subject land. Wilmot Creek,
otherwise known as Baldwin's Creek, runs through this property.
She expressed some concern that residences in the*area with the
necessary sanitary affluent facilities might create a contamination
problem in the area.
The Committee referred to Section 31 subsection 7 of by-law
�
1592: Lands Subiect to Floodino-
-In all zones the erection of buildings or structures
for residential or commercial purposes shall be
prohibited on land that is subject to flooding or,
on land where by reason of its rocky, low-lying,
marshy or unstable character, the cost of satisfactory
waterworks,sewage, or drainage facilities is pro-
hibitive. Nor shall any building or structure
or appurtenance thereto (other than conservation or
flood control projects) be installed within (1001)
one hundred feet of any stream or river bank, or_in the
flood plain of any water course, as determined by an
Ontario Land Surveyor.”
Q
Page 10
Meeting of Committee`of Adjustment June 30, 1969;
This iscfurther substantiated by Section 309 subsection
3 of the Planning Act, Chapter 296 Revised Statutes of
Ontario which subsection would apparently indicate that the
legislature of the Province of Ontario have some concern in
matters such as this.
The prime concern of the Committee at this time, of course,
is simply whether or not a minor variance in the matter of
reduction of frontage from 120, to 100' should be allowed.
The Committee felt that under the circumstances they
should request the applicant to.contact the officials of the
Northumberland and Durham Health Unit at Cobourg to request
from them an opinion as to the suitability of the area for the
installation of septic facilities..
The Secretary was also instructed to ask Dr. Horner, if,
in her opinion, this is a matter that should be referred to
the Ontario Water Resources Commission.
.The Committee noted that there were approximately 5 or 6
lots in the area which were held under separate deeds.
