4. Public Notice and Submissions
Page 6
4.1 Pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, the appropriate signage
notifying of the application was installed on the subject lands. In addition, a public
notice was mailed to each landowner within 60 metres of the subject lands.
4.2 At the time of writing this report, Staff have received no inquiries or objections
from members of the public for the consent application. No written letters of
opposition have been received regarding the proposal.
5. Provincial Policy
Planning Act
5.1 Section 53(12) of the Planning Act requires that the criteria set out under Section
51(24) shall be given regard for matters such as: health, safety, convenience,
accessibility for persons with disabilities and welfare of the present and future
inhabitants of the municipality when considering an application for consent. For
the purposes of this review, it is the opinion of the Planning and Infrastructure
Services Department that the proposed application is consistent with the criteria
(a) — (m) of Section 51(24) under the act.
Provincial Planning Statement (2024)
5.2 Section 2.2 Housing: Planning authorities shall provide for an appropriate range
and mix of housing options and densities to meet projected needs of current and
future residents of the regional market area by: permitting and facilitating all
types of residential intensification, introduction of new housing options within
previously developed areas, and redevelopment, which results in a net increase
in residential units in accordance with policy 2.3.1.3.
5.3 Section 2.3 Settlement Areas: Settlement areas shall be the focus of growth
and development. Land use patterns within settlement areas shall be based on
densities and a mix of land uses. Land use patterns within settlement areas shall
also be based on a range of uses and opportunities for intensification and
redevelopment application is consistent with the criteria within the PPS.
5.4 The subject application will facilitate the intensification of a previously developed
area and assist in meeting current and projected housing needs. It is the opinion
of the Planning and Infrastructure Services Department that the proposed
application is consistent with the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P.13, and
Provincial Planning Statement (2024).
6. Official Plan
6.1 The subject property is entirely designated Urban Residential within the
Clarington Official Plan. The predominant use of lands designated Urban
Residential is for housing purposes.
Municipality of Clarington
Committee of Adjustment Page 7
B-2024-0037
6.2 Clarington's Urban Structure mapping (Map B) consists of Priority Intensification
Areas including `Built-up Areas', 'Greenfield Areas', and corridors. Development
shall be focused within the delineated `Built-up Areas' and `Priority Intensification
Areas'. The 'Priority Intensification Areas' have been identified as the primary
locations to accommodate growth, and the greatest mix of uses, heights and
densities. The subject lands are located within the built-up area of Bowmanville
and Liberty Street North is designated as a local corridor on Map B within the
Clarington Official Plan.
6.3 As per Section 9.4.6 in the Clarington Official Plan, the Municipality recognizes
that established neighbourhoods are stable but not static, the Municipality
encourages limited intensification in accordance with the criteria in Section 5.4.1
to ensure intensification projects are compatible with the adjacent
neighbourhood. Section 5.4.1 requires that redevelopment in established
neighbourhoods shall be designed to respect and reinforce the physical
character of the established neighbourhood having regard to the pattern of lots,
streets, blocks and the size and configuration of lots. Planning staff are satisfied
that the creation of a new residential lot at 53 Liberty Street North is consistent
with the lot fabric of existing lots in the neighbourhood and can support the
construction of a future apartment building as the primary use, which will meet
the planning objectives of Clarington's local corridor policies to see priority
intensification along Liberty Street North.
6.4 Liberty Street North is designated as a Type B Arterial Road which is indicated
on Map B and Map J3 within the Clarington Official Plan. Liberty Street North is
a Regional Road and Durham Region Works comments on this application are
supportive of the proposed common access off Liberty Street Road for entry and
exit of motor vehicles to both the retained and severed lands. A new entrance is
not proposed off Liberty Street North, and a shared private easement (Parts 3
and 4) are proposed over the severed (Part 3) and retained (Part 4) lands to
provide vehicular access to the severed and retained lands. Both Clarington's
Development Engineering Division and the Durham Works Department are
supportive of the proposed private shared easement.
6.5 The proposed consent application is subject to policies within Section 23.7 -
Severances of the Clarington Official Plan.

6.6 The subject property is identified as Secondary on Clarington's Cultural Heritage
Resources List. It is subject to the Celebrating our Cultural Heritage policies in
Chapter 8 of the Clarington Official Plan. Preserving the Secondary heritage
resource on the property will be dealt with during the Zoning By -Law Amendment
application process.

6.7 For the purposes of this review, it is the opinion of the Planning and Infrastructure
Services Department that the consent application conforms to the Clarington
Official Plan policies including the severance policies under Section 23.7 a) — k).
7. Zoning By -Law 84-63
7.1 The subject property is zoned Urban Residential Type One (R1) within Zoning
By-law 84-63. A semi-detached dwelling interior lot within the (R1) zone requires
a minimum lot area of 550 square metres and a minimum lot frontage of 18
metres. An interior lot for a single detached dwelling within the (R1) zone
requires a minimum lot area of 460 square metres and a minimum street frontage
of 15 metres. The retained parcel complied with the minimum required lot
frontage and lot area requirements for a semi-detached dwelling since the
proposed lot area and lot frontage with the "R1" zoning provisions when
combined with 51 Liberty Street North The severed parcel will require a rezoning
to be approved to support the creation of the parcel fabric and proposed built
form, and zoning deficiencies with the built form for the retained parcel will be
addressed through the rezoning application.
7.2 It is staff's opinion that the proposed lots conform to the use permitted within
Zoning by-law 84-63. The rezoning application will be a requirement as a
condition of the severance application to seek approval from Municipal Council to
support this development proposal.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this application is consent to sever a vacant 766
square metre residential parcel of land (Parts 1 — 3 on the Draft
40R Plan), retaining a 286 square metre residential parcel of
land (Parts 4 — 5) with an existing semi-detached dwelling. The
application includes a shared easement (Parts 3 and 4). The
application includes an easement.
2. PLANNING ANALYSIS
Regional Official Plan (ROP) Conformity
The subject site is designated "Community Areas" in Envision
Durham, the new ROP which was approved by the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and Housing on September 3, 2024.
Community Areas are to be planned for a variety of housing
types, sizes and tenures within connected neighbourhoods
that include population -serving uses.
The application appears to conform to the new ROP.
However, in accordance with Policy 11.3.10 of Envision
Durham, severances cannot be granted that are contrary to
the new ROP and/or any area municipal official plan. As such,
full conformity to the new ROP will be determined once a final
decision has been issued by the area municipality confirming
that the retained and severed parcels comply with the
requirements of the area municipality's zoning by-law.
Provincial Planning Statement, 2024
The 2024 Provincial Planning Statement (PPS) took effect on
October 20, 2024, repealing and replacing the Provincial
Policy Statement, 2020 and the Growth Plan for the Greater
Golden Horseshoe.
The PPS states that Planning authorities shall provide for an
appropriate range and mix of housing options and densities to
meet projected needs of current and future residents by
promoting densities for new housing which efficiently use land,
resources, infrastructure and public service facilities, and
support the use of active transportation, and by requiring
transit -supportive development and prioritizing intensification
in proximity to transit.
The subject site is located within the Bowmanville Urban Area,
-2-
LID 117/2024
which is intended to accommodate infill development and will
take advantage of existing infrastructure and any public
service facilities. As such, the application is consistent with the
policies of the PPS.
3. PROVINCIAL PLAN REVIEW RESPONSIBILITIES
We have reviewed this application for delegated Provincial
plan review responsibilities.
Soil and Groundwater Assessment Protocol
In accordance with the Region's Soil and Groundwater
Assessment Protocol, the proponent submitted the Region's
Site Screening Questionnaire (SSQ), signed by a Qualified
Person under the meaning of the Environmental Protection
Act, to our satisfaction.
As such, the Region is satisfied that all matters related to
potential site contamination have been addressed.
Archaeological Potential
The Region's composite archaeological resources tool
identifies the subject site as an area of archaeological
potential. Since most of the subject property appears to be
undisturbed, a licensed archaeologist will need to complete an
Archaeological Site Assessment.
A Stage 1 & 2 Archaeological Assessment, prepared by
Archaeological Consultants Canada, dated September 29,
2023, was submitted in support of the application. The
assessment indicated that no artifacts or other archaeological
resources were identified during the assessment. It
recommended that no further archaeological assessment of
the subject site is required.
A letter, prepared by the Ministry of Citizenship and
Multiculturalism, dated July 5, 2024, was submitted in support
