RECOPgNIENDATIONS:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-233-87 be received for information.
BACKGROUND Af'dD CU(u1MENT:
At the General Purpose and Administration Committee P+leeting of July 6, 1987 the Committee
approved Resolution #GPA-607-87 to request the Director of Planning to revieva the
implications of rezoning the area east of the West Beach Area betvaeen Cove Road and
Simpson Avenue and report back.
* The attached map illustrates the present zoning of the area. Most of the lands are
presently zoned "Shoreline Residential Special Exception One (RS-1)" with the balance of
the lands zoned "Environr~ental Protection (EP)". These zoning categories were put in
place with the approval of By-law 84-63 in September of 1984 following extensive public
involvement of the area residents. The previous zoning, contained in 6y-law 1587 o~f the
former Town of Bowmanville, was "Rural" (A) which limited uses to those existing at the

date of passing of said By-law (August 2, 1955). The present zoning has
the same effect but perr;iits conversions of cottages subject to satisfying
the numerous requirements of the by-law. In addition, a portion of the
area was rezoned to "Environmental Protection (EP)" thus further
restricting activities and land uses in the area.
As noted, there was considerable public involvement in the zoning of this
area. This was due to the fact that the first draft of the Zoning By-law
proposed to place the entire area in an "Environmental Protection" zone
due to the comments of both the Central Lake Ontario Conservation
Authority and the f~linistry of Natural Resources. The present zoning,
therefore represents a compromise and was intended to permit upgrading of
this area but at the same tir,~e address concerns related to flooding and
lake erosion due to vvave uprush.
The area in question has also been identified for public acquisition by
Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority as part of the long term
development of the Bowmanville Barbour Conservation Area (extract of map
* attached). The Town supported this plan and assigned a priority to it by
Resolution #GPA-152-83 on February 21, 1983.
The implications of rezoning this area must be reviewed in the context of
the Town's present position, bdhile the Town supports the development of
a Waterfront Conservation Area it has further entrenched existing uses
through the zoning compromise reached in 1984. This may affect the
implementation of the waterfront plan inasmuch as the zoning can have a
positive effect on property values.
Staff have assumed that we were to review the implications of rezoning
the area to "Environmental Protection (EP)". In that regard, there is a
basis for doing so given the Harbour Master Plan and the flooding
concerns. However, if rezoned, the existing residents would continue to

enjoy a legal non-conforming status until such time as the use was
discontinued or the properties acquired by a public agency in order to
implement the Harbour Plan. The most significant impacts, therefore,
would be the impact, if any, on property values and the legislated
requirement to seek Committee of Adjustment approvals for any changes to
existing uses and structures.
If Council wishes to pursue a change to the zoning of this area,
appropriate public notices avill have to be published and a public meeting
scheduled.
