2. Background
2.1 On November 16, 2023, a pre-consultation meeting was held jointly for two proposals
within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan (one to the north of the hydro corridor and one
to the south). Applications were received on December 12, 2024, and deemed
incomplete. The outstanding materials were submitted, and the applications were
subsequently deemed complete on March 13, 2025.
2.2 The proposal shows a medium density block which will consist of an apartment building
and back-to-back townhouse ranging in height between 2 to 6 storeys. The proposal
also shows a park block, a 5.0 metre road widening along Bennett Road, and a future
public road which is proposed to connect to the abutting lands to the north, through the
hydro corridor.
2.3 The supporting documents submitted with the applications have been circulated to
various departments and agencies for review and comment. They are available upon
request and will be summarized in a subsequent recommendation report.
2.4 The subject lands are located within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan Area and are
proceeding concurrently with the subject lands to the north. The lands to the north are
under separate ownership and are separate applications.
3. Land Characteristics and Surrounding Uses
3.1 The subject lands are located at the northeast quadrant of Bennett Road and the CN
Railway, within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan Area. The site consists of vacant
agricultural lands and is approximately 2.55 hectares.
3.2 Surrounding uses are as follows:

4. Provincial Policy
The Provincial Planning Statement (2024)
4.1 The Provincial Planning Statement, 2024 (PPS) encourages planning authorities to
create healthy, livable, and safe communities by accommodating an appropriate range
and mix of housing types, including affordable housing and shall promote development
patterns that efficiently use land and infrastructure. Opportunities for redevelopment and
intensification are to be promoted where it can be accommodated.
4.2 The PPS policies direct growth to settlement areas and promote compact development
forms. The subject lands are located within the Newcastle Urban Settlement boundary.
Planning authorities are to facilitate a variety of housing forms and promote residential
intensification to achieve efficient development patterns, especially along public transit
and active transportation routes.
4.3 The PPS encourages a minimum density target of 50 residents and jobs per gross
developable hectare in designated growth areas.
4.4 The PPS also states that land uses within the vicinity of rail facilities shall be undertaken
so that their long-term operation and economic role is protected. Major facilities and
sensitive land uses, such as residential, shall be planned and developed to avoid, or if
avoidance is not possible, minimize and mitigate any potential adverse effects from
noise and other nuisances to minimize risk to public health and safety, and to ensure
long term operational and economic viability of the major facility. A Land Use
Compatibility Study and Noise and Vibration Study have been submitted in support of
the application.
4.5 The proposal is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement.
5. Official Plan
Durham Region Official Plan (Envision Durham)
5.1 The Durham Region Official Plan (Envision Durham) designates the subject lands as
“Community Areas.” Community Areas are to be planned for a variety of housing types,
sizes, and tenures, including townhouse dwellings. These areas can also include
population-serving uses and shall be developed in a compact form through higher
densities and by intensifying and redeveloping existing areas.
5.2 Envision Durham provides a long-term policy framework that is used to manage Durham
Region’s growth and development. The intent of Envision Durham is to manage
resources, direct growth and establish a basis for providing Regional services in an
efficient and effective manner
Municipality of Clarington Page 6
Report PDS-033-25
5.3 Development within this area shall be planned to achieve a minimum density target of
53 people and jobs per hectare. The density proposed is estimated to be around 107
people per ha which is meeting this target.
5.4 The application conforms with Envision Durham.
Municipality of Clarington Official Plan
5.5 The Clarington Official Plan designates the property “Urban Residential” and is within
Newcastle Urban Area. The area is also identified as Special Policy Area B2. Area B2
includes the lands located north of the CN railway which are subject to a Secondary
Plan. A variety of housing forms, which may include retirement and assisted living
facilities, are encouraged subject to the Secondary Plan.
5.6 The Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan area includes a Neighbourhood Centre.
Consideration shall also be given to locate high rise residential uses and commercial
uses on a public road system within a plan of subdivision. A portion of the lands may be
developed with private leasehold arrangements and private streets.
5.7 Bennett Road is identified as a Local Corridor north of Highway 401. Given that the
subject lands are south of Highway 401, this portion of Bennett Road is not identified as
a Local Corridor. Bennett Road is also identified as a Type C Arterial Road on Map J4
and a proposed grade separation is shown at the CN railway intersection.
5.8 Table 4-3 in the Clarington Official Plan states that areas at the edge of neighbourhoods
and adjacent to arterial roads are to have a minimum density of 19 units per net hectare
and a height ranging from 1 to 3 storeys. It also provides for limited apartments,
townhouses, semi-detached dwellings, and detached dwellings.
5.9 Multi-unit residential development will be developed on the basis of the following site
development criteria, as per policy 9.4.5:
Suitability of the size and shape of the site;
Compatibility with the surrounding neighbourhood;
Minimize impact of traffic on local streets;
Multiple vehicular accesses from a public street shall generally be provided for each
townhouse block and each apartment block;
Each condominium corporation block shall have direct street frontage and direct
vehicular access to a public street without reliance on easements through another
condominium corporation block;
Municipality of Clarington Page 7
Report PDS-033-25
In order to achieve a mixture of housing types, adjacent multi-unit residential unit
types shall not replicate the same built form;
Townhouses sited on blocks shall generally not exceed 50 units and apartment
blocks shall not exceed 2 buildings; and
Where multiple mid-rise and high-rise residential developments are planned for a
given area, a phasing plan shall be required to identify common amenity areas and
shared pedestrian and/or vehicle access.
5.10 The Clarington Official Plan also ensures the continued viability and ultimate capacity of
the rail corridors are protected. Development shall minimize or alleviate wherever
possible, the conflicts of railway infrastructure and ensure appropriate studies are
undertaken by the proponent . All proposed development adjacent to railway corridors
shall ensure that appropriate safety measures such as setbacks, berms and security
fencing are provided. Warning clauses would also be registered on title for new
residential developments.
5.11 The proposal conforms with the Clarington Official Plan.
Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan
5.12 The subject lands are within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan which was adopted by
Clarington Council on April 24, 2023, and approved by the Region of Durham on
September 26, 2024.
5.13 Within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan the subject lands are designated Medium
Density Residential and Parkette. A local road connection is shown south of the hydro
corridor and connecting to the north, as well as a trail that runs parallel to the local road
and connecting through to the parkette.
5.14 Development within the Secondary Plan Area shall provide a distribution of land uses by
providing a mix of uses, heights, and densities to support a complete community. Taller
buildings are to be directed close to Highway 401 and Bennett Road.
5.15 The Medium Density Residential Designation permits a mix of housing types and
tenures in mid- and low-rise building forms. Apartments and back-to-back townhouses
are permitted building types within the Medium Density Residential Designation. The
height of buildings shall be a minimum of two storeys and a maximum of six storeys.
5.16 The minimum density within the Medium Density Residential designation is 40 units per
net hectare. The proposal would facilitate a development of 62 units per gross hectare
and 103 units per net hectare.
Municipality of Clarington Page 8
Report PDS-033-25
5.17 The Municipality will ensure, through the Implementing Zoning By-law, Conditions of
Draft Plan Approval, Site Plan Agreement, and/or any other legally binding agreement
acceptable to the Municipality, that potential adverse noise impacts from Highway 401
and the CN Railway shall include appropriate construction techniques and/or building
materials that will mitigate potential adverse noise impacts. As a minimum, the dwellings
should be constructed of brick veneer or masonry exterior wall construction and be
provided with central air conditioning.
5.18 Physical noise mitigation measures (e.g., acoustic barriers) for residential and/or
sensitive land uses adjacent to Highway 401 and the CN Railway line can be used. The
height and design of any noise mitigation measures shall be determined by the Noise
Feasibility Study to the satisfaction of the Municipality.
5.19 The proposal conforms with the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan.
6. Zoning By-law 84-63
6.1 The property is zoned “Agricultural (A)” in Zoning by-law 84-63. The Agricultural Zone is
a common zone category for underdeveloped lots located within Settlement Areas. The
Agricultural zone does not permit the proposed development, and as such, the rezoning
application was required.
6.2 The draft zoning by-law amendment proposes the lands be rezoned to a Medium
Density Exception Zone and Urban Residential Zone with a Holding provision to
facilitate the development of an apartment building and back-to-back townhouses, as
well as a park block within the Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan Area.
6.3 Finalization of appropriate zone uses and provisions will be determined after all public
and agency comments have been received and will be brought forward in a subsequent
recommendation report. A Holding (H) Symbol will be implemented as part of the Zoning
By-law Amendment to ensure the conditions of the draft plan of subdivision and site
plan approval (for the medium density block) have been fulfilled. The parkette will also
be rezoned to an urban residential zone and will have a hold until the lands are
transferred to the Municipality.
6.4 The draft Zoning By-law Amendment submitted by GHD Limited is included in
Attachment 1 of this report.
7. Summary of Background Studies
7.1 The applicant has submitted the required supporting plans and studies which have been

Park and Trails
Municipality of Clarington Page
10
Report PDS-033-25
10.4 The Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan indicates that parks shall be provided as part of a
connected parks and open space system. Wherever feasible, lands designated Green
Space shall incorporate parks and leisure uses for passive recreational uses. Schedule
A to the Secondary Plan shows a parkette within the subject lands. Parkettes are
smaller scale parks and shall be between 0.5 to 1.0 hectare in size. The proposal
reflects the Secondary Plan by providing a park block of 0.55 hectares. A Facility Fit
Plan was also provided which shows a trail connection from Street A, through the park
and connecting further east to the open space lands.
Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment
10.5 A rezoning is required to rezone the lands from “Agricultural (A) Zone” to an appropriate
“Holding - Urban Residential Exception Zone” to facilitate the proposed development.
The parkette would be zoned to an “Urban Residential Type One (R1) Zone”, with a
Hold until the lands for the parkette are dedicated to the Municipality. A Zoning By -law
Amendment has been prepared by the applicant and appears to align with the approved
vision for the Wilmot Secondary Plan Area.
Affordable Housing
10.6 The Wilmot Creek Secondary Plan has specific policies to facilitate affordable housing.
And the Clarington Official Plan encourages a minimum of 30% of the proposed units to
be affordable. The Planning Act also requires the adequate provision of a full range of
housing, including affordable housing as a matter of Provincial interest.
10.7 The Secondary Plan policies encourage the development of affordable housing within
the Secondary Plan boundaries. Staff will work with the applicant to encourage the
inclusion of affordable housing units.
10.8 The application currently does not mention any intention to provide affordable or rental
housing. Further discussions with the Owner in this regard will be required and would be
discussed further in a future recommendation report.
11. Financial Considerations
11.1 Not applicable, as this is a public meeting report to gather public input on the proposal.
Financial considerations will be addressed in the subsequent recommendation report.
12. Strategic Plan
12.1 The proposed development will be reviewed against the three pillars of the Clarington
Strategic Plan 2024-27. Staff will give special attention to the priorities of growing
