I°ir, Proctor t!as in-rited to make his submissi .rns and h,; stated: (1) He i.n` ndcd to buy a 10 acre parcel of land but had to tak 19.8 acres in order to complete the transaction, which took place in the first week of May, 1963.

Mr. Vanderspruit, an abutting land owner, stated that the southern portion was covered with water in the Spring, but a good culvert would correct this situ::tion. In fact thete is a nc.tural watt -3 -course across the southerly portion of the 19 acres of land. Z.s a matter of record this property was visited by the Committee on September 26th, 1968. The Committee iaere of the opinion that the matter of the enter course was not critical in thi; c,?se ,,s the anplicstinn is property dealt with on other grounds. This applic-tion eras set over for written reasons and judgement. 'CLASS]:FIC_,TION I-lceti.ng adjourn:=d at 12:00 p.m. aecretiry-Troasu`rer October 2, 1968: A decl� .;az _iven on the following aq_C11c '.tion: 146-68 p} 1i_ca'.ti n F _le IQo. 1,7-68 John D. McLaughlin Esq.,Agent, Barrister & Sold.citor, 35 -'King Street E., Oshawa, Onta.r_i_o, Wi.11i:lm Purvis Proctor Owners, Fern Proctor, 325 Kent Street, Whitby, Ont.rio, for part of Lot 31, Con V1, To,;lnshi r of Cl_.r1-e, Submission No. B146-68_127 Phe acplic•_Mts _viilliarn Purvis Proctor and Fen; P�oetor urcBTsed68-128 pro::erty being part of Lot 311 Concession 6 on the Leskard Road, Page 2 October 2, 1968: in the Townshi_p'of Clarke, containing approximat.cly 19.8 acres. They presently h>--vc before the Committee of -'adjustment two separate applications to sever 5 acre parcels from this property. Since the Committee could not see any difference in the properties to be severed the same reasons for judgement shall a,ply in both cases. The applicant stated that he had originally int^nded to buy a 10 acre lot but the only It°.nd that he could find which suited his renuirements is the subj_ct lend. The basic reason for his applic_-tion, therefore, would appear to be that he wished to sell land surplus to his needs. It is noted that the lands to be severed are shown on the survey prepared by an OnL-aria Land Surveyor, Donovan & Fleischmann, 11 Ontnrin Street, Oshawa, Ontario, September 10, 19687 Job No. 17115. Thcre is no allegation, therefore, that the -ropos,�d severance had been commenced before it was prohibited by legislation and that unregistered deeds or similar_ documents were in e,i_stence. As the result of the evidence presented, the Committee concluded that the applicant knew or ought to have known that legally he could not subdivide this land as of right. He was aware that consent would be necessary and hoped that this consent would be forthcoming. In the absence of any special circumstances to grant the applicant permission to divide the land as he wishes would be to create a situation where a ,:person with less than 20 acres would be given con- sent to create 3 separate parcels of land. In the opinion of the Committee this is directly in conflict with the present policy regarding land seharatioh'as laid down by relevant Provincial Legislation 'which would require an application for a Plan of Subdivision. The only real argument advanced by the appli_'tant was that the property opposite this property had been subdivided into small lots. This does not, in the Committee's opinion justify further division of land. Application refused on motion by K. Schoenmaker, seconded by E.R. Love -kin. Carried.
