DELEGATIONS Janice Jones addressed Council concerning Item 5 of Report #1- PSD- 022 -13 - Proposed Official Plan, Rezoning, and Amendment to Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision and to Permit a 261 Unit Residential Plan of Subdivision. Ms. Jones stated that eight years ago, her family moved to Beckett Crescent in Courtice and were very happy with their choice of home and neighbourhood which consisted of mainly single detached homes with a few proposed semi - detached and townhomes to be built. She noted the neighbourhood had a public elementary school within walking distance and a proposed high school next door. Since then, the school board has decided not to pursue a high school and the land that was supposed to be used for the school was changed to include 90 single- detached homes and 66 townhomes. Ms. Jones stated that last year, she received a letter proposing another change to the zoning from medium to high density residential to allow for 192 garden flat apartments in 16 three - storey buildings with 12 units each. Ms. Jones stated area residents started a petition in opposition to the rezoning last year and to date, have collected over 750 signatures. Ms. Jones questioned the rationale for the development at this location. She stated the Courtice main corridor would be a more appropriate location for high density residential. Ms. Jones is concerned with the impact on traffic and safety with the addition of 261 units and the need for more parks. She suggested the applicant revise the plan to include more single- detached homes and greenspace with a plan that fits with their community. Ms. Jones urged Council not to amend the existing zoning for the property. Richard Aubry, Architect, Preston Group, addressed Council concerning Item 5 of Report #1- PSD- 022 -13 - Proposed Official Plan, Rezoning, and Amendment to Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision and to Permit a 261 Unit Residential Plan of Subdivision. Mr. Aubry stated the Preston Group is committed to Clarington having been in the community for over 15 years developing over 350 single, semi - detached and townhomes creating the best possible communities. Through use of a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Aubry reviewed the proposal which creates a neighbourhood that achieves a higher level of density with three - storey small floor plate designs which respond to and complement the existing community in both use and form and creates a pedestrian - friendly and transit - friendly community. Council Meeting Minutes - 5 - April 15, 2013 Mr. Aubry highlighted parkette areas that will allow the public to connect to different spaces providing alternative pedestrian environments. He stated there has been a number of meetings with staff and consultation with the public to address concerns with respect to traffic, form and fit, parking and pedestrian safety. Mr. Aubry stated the proposal conforms to the Provincial Policy Statement and the applicant is following the rules and guidelines set out by the regulatory authorities. Mr. Aubry acknowledged that residents are fighting for the quality of their community and for its future noting the applicant played a significant role in creating the community and will continue to fight for this proposal.

Veridian has confirmed that the road banner will be replaced at no cost to the Committee. Overall, the event, was a success and planning for Heritage Week 2014 will commence in August. CORRESPONDENCE and COUNCIL REFERRAL Letter from MTO in response to the Council Resolution on timing of advertising the relocation of homes and also the inclusion of out - buildings in the relocation - Confirmation that salvage of materials and delivery will be provided at no cost to the Municipality. 3 Update from MTO In response to the Committee's questions and requests it was indicated that: - A heritage home relocation consultant assignment has been initiated for priority properties. - They are working to advertise these properties for relocation later this month - MTO will consider the merit and feasibility of each relocation proposal, including those which include outbuildings. - They are open to allowing the relocation of a smoke house from one of the properties which was discussed at the last meeting and will work with the Museum if there is interest. - They will not be offering 1930's -50's houses for relocation or salvage aside from regular recycling /reuse efforts that coincide with demolition such as Habitat for Humanity. - MTO is awaiting the CHC review of completed CHER documents and a municipal salvage plan including a database of requested materials. MTO's heritage consultants review the database and coordinate the salvage of materials. MTO would like this to be done before the Committee breaks for the summer. - MTO have requested to attend another CHC meeting as soon as possible. It was determined that a special meeting should be held for MTO to attend. Staff will make arrangements with MTO. It is anticipated that Planning Staff will receive many inquiries regarding the- properties once they are advertised. Staff will, look into preparing a resource such as a Q &A sheet upon which to refer interested persons. Invitation from MTO to an Archeological Findings Session Municipal Heritage Committee members are invited to attend an archaeology presentation on the 407 East project on Monday May 6 from 7pm to 9pm at 407EDG Offices located at 400 Dundas Street in Whitby. A few members of the Committee indicated interest in attending. CI Letter regarding Heritage Trees David Pearl from Alliston, who is involved in Heritage Tree Treasure Hunts in Southern Ontario contacted Angela in response to the newspaper article. He indicated that the tree on the Heritage Week Treasure Hunt Map would not be as old as previously thought. He would be interested in working with the Committee to promote any information regarding Heritage Trees in - Clarington. It was agreed that providing information on Heritage Trees on the Heritage Website would be something of interest for the Committee to pursue. He is specifically interested in a heritage tree that was referenced in another document at the Sam Powell house as it was planted for the 1937 coronation of King George V1 and Queen Elizabeth. Angela has spoken with the Bowmanville Horticultural Society, and they will follow this up. The BHS has also indicated an interest in partnering with CHC in a Heritage Tree project.. . Committee members noted a large oak tree on Old Scugog Road and the beech trees on Beech Avenue. Trees can be individually designated but Clarington has not pursued individual tree designation. PROJECT REPORTS Inventory Photographs — No update. Barns —MTO has offered to assist with this project by providing a list and locations of the, barns that are in the 407 path. Staff have been able to map barn structures using the codes-from MPAC; additional work will be needed to refine the way in which this information is extracted to get to the age of barns and types that would meet "heritage ". NEW BUSINESS Liberty Bowl The Committee reviewed photos of Liberty Bowl taken by David and Karin. David provided a commentary. The owners have sold most everything inside; much of the equipment, lanes and materials will be re- purposed /reused. 407 Heritage Bridges, Scenic Roads, and Rail Corridors The MTO has asked that any bridges, scenic roads, and rail corridors identified as heritage resources in the Municipality's heritage resource inventory be relayed to their 5 heritage consultants. Since Clarington is so large, this type of resource has not been inventoried to date. Additional staff and resources to complete such an inventory would be necessary. Reference to the protection of historical structures, streetscapes, landscapes, vistas and ridge -lines are included in the Cultural Heritage objectives of the Clarington Official Plan. The Committee reviewed the listing and photos of affected bridges, roads, and rail corridors provided by the MTO from the 2009 Environmental Assessment. It was suggested that current photos be taken so that they can be compared with the 2007 photos. Staff will request the digital photograph files from the MTO. Karin and David will take photos of the features. Photographic documentation is the proposed strategy for recognizing these heritage features. Heritage Plaques As a solution to the problem of theft and the high cost of the bronze heritage building plaques, Planning staff are exploring different options to replicate the bronze plaques using materials that will not be subject to theft but are aesthetically appealing and will stand up to weathering. A sample plaque using plastic material was reviewed at the meeting however Committee Members agreed that they would like to continue exploring other options. Tenzin Gyaltsan moved the meeting be adjourned. Next meeting: May 21, 2013, 7:00 p.m., at Clarington Municipal Offices, Room 1A Attachments Attachment #1 — Heritage Week Update 0 Heritage Week 2013 Working Group Report to C.H.0 April 16, 2013 The group met on Thursday, March 21 to review the various activities held during Heritage Week 2013. Representatives from the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario(Clarington), Bowmanville Business Improvement Association, Bowmanville Museum, Clarington Heritage Committee, Clarington Older Adults Association, Newcastle Village District Historical Society, Visual Arts Centre and Planning Services staff were in attendance. Bowmanville B.I.A: Bowmanville B.I.A did support the week and approximately five merchants participated with Heritage window displays. It was generally expressed that this represented a good starting point for future years. Bowmanville Museum: This year, the Museum didn't field any dedicated Heritage Week Events The group welcomed the Museum's newly appointed Executive Director, Julia Fielding, who expressed her support for the Museums participation in Heritage Week 2014. A.C.O: Ten people attended the ACO /Museum Walking Tour and several more had been expected, but were probably deterred by the extremely cold weather. C.H.C: The Orono Old Home Movie Night was very successful, with approximately fifty people attending. Everyone was most appreciative, and also enjoyed the display of Heritage Panels supplied by the Planning Department. The Banner was erected across Highway 2 by Veridian at the beginning of February, but unfortunately fell victim to very high winds on Heritage Day. It seems likely that improper installation played a part in this loss, and Veridian has kindly agreed to assist with its replacement Books were sold at the Apple Blossom Flower Shops (3), Orono Home Movie Night (1), VAC Closing Ceremonies (1) Hoopers Jewellers (3) and the C.O.A.A (12), for a total of 20 sold with $380 generated. Twelve people visited the Open House at 107 Beaver Street in Newcastle on Saturday February 23. C.O.A.A: All events held at the Beech Centre were well attended. Fifteen people came out to the Heritage Photo Day in costume, 132 people attended the Legend of Dan McGrew theatre event, nine people were at the Geneology session and the Cozy Cafe Old Tyme Pricing event brought in good crowds all day. NVDHS: Twelve people attended the Family Day event held in the Historical Room, which featured an archeological dig, and model train display. The Society was very pleased by the public's interest. V.A.C: There were very few additional visitors to the VAC during Heritage Week, and attendance at the Closing Ceremonies was also sparse. Treasure Hunt: Participation in the Treasure Hunt was disappointing. Some comments were received that the Hunt was too long, and there also seemed to be difficulty with pick up locations for the map. On the positive side, there was feedback that people were enjoying the map as a map, and were planning to use it for sightseeing in better weather. It is also permanently available on the Municipality's Heritage Website. Publicitv and Promotion: The considerable time and effort put into publicity and promotion enjoyed varying degrees of success. Posters and postcards were widely distributed, but there was feedback that quantities of postcards were not used. The Website enjoyed a significant increase in traffic during January (approximately 20 visitors /day) and while Clarington Communications Department estimated that the number of people who saw their social media and electronic messages was in the tens of thousands, some problems were encountered with intergroup social media promotion. Radio KX 96 gave some coverage to Heritage Week, and there was also good support from Orono Weekly Times ( two articles) photo op, editorial and two articles in Clarington This Week and SNAP published a photo and write up of the Closing Ceremonies. Conclusions: Overall, members were very satisfied with the outcome of Clarington's first Heritage Week. All indications were that the Week achieved its prime objective — that of raising public awareness of the importance of local Heritage As the weather undoubtedly played a part in the low turnout to outdoor activities, there was a suggestion that the group consider moving the week to later in the year. It was noted that, although the third week in February is provincially recognized as Heritage Week, there was no appreciable promotion or support from the Province or the Ontario Heritage Trust. After discussion, it was decided to retain the February dates, and concentrate on more indoor activities. Efforts will be made to involve the School Board and Library, and it was suggested that a partnership with Ontario Power Generation be explored. In light of the success of the Orono Home Movie Night, it was decided to include a screening of a local heritage film during Heritage Week 2014, and a partnership with the local Cineplex Odean will be pursued. The V.A.0 will look into reserving space in the library and /or the ground floor hallway of the Municipal Administration Centre for Heritage Week Art displays. These will be installed for the entire month of February. Next Meeting: The next meeting will be held in August.

Arrangements have been finalized with the farms. There are about 25 attending at this point. Looking forward to tomorrow. CLOCA Stewardship Programs — Response received from Russ Powell, CAO at CLOCA was circulated. Council has endorsed the resolution; it has yet to be discussed by CLOCA Board. Agricultural Advisory Committee of Clarington April 11 th 2013 Terms of Membership — Council approved the resolution. The intention is to implement after the next election when appointments are made, half would be for 2 years and the other half for 4 years and then appointments would be made mid -term. Species at Risk — the representatives from MNR were invited but they wanted it to be clear to the committee that they have no input on the policy discussion, formulation or direction. They are the researchers; they would not be able to attend the June meeting. Committee determined that it would be more beneficial to speak to the policy writers. Revisions to the Pet By -law - there had been some concern that the role of working dogs had not been accurately captured. Working dogs are the same as employees but they stay with the herd /flock 24/7. Faye checked with Anne Greentree and let the committee members know that this had been addressed in the by -law. Correspondence and Council Referrals Covanta and their PR person, Amy Bonni ingt n'called to offer a tour of the EFW site to the Committee members, most likely in the "`fail=:.

Other ideas were to have someone attend on Biosolids, Mike Kapansky from Miller Compost and someone on alternative energy project (solar, wind) and Green Energy Act approvals. Agricultural Advisory Committee of Clarington April 11th, 2013 Other Business 1) Natural Heritage Systems Discussion Paper for the Official Plan Review was issued on April 8th, also issued was the Parks, Open Space and Trails Discussion Paper. Faye distributed the public information session notices and encouraged all to attend. The impact of the Natural Heritage System (NHS) is that in the valleys and where natural features exist the system has been more accurately mapped in the rural areas, in the urban areas it better defines what is developable and what is not. The map that Faye had to display the system makes it obvious where the Long Sault and Ganaraska Forests are, Enniskillen valley and Lake Iroquois Shoreline (many of the PSW's are in this location). MNR will be at two of the Public Information Sessions, the NHS includes all the PSW's and ANSI's that have been determined by MNR and provided to Clarington. These features were protected through policy but not as accurately mapped in the 1996 Official Plan. As we move to next steps it will be important to determine how the NHS will be shown in the Rural area because of the policies of the Greenbelt that protect agriculture. 2) Countryside Discussion Paper can now be'completed as it fits together with the NHS. The paper will include a discussion on Secondary-. ses; however the proposed changes to the PPS define accessory and 'secondary uses as being agriculture - related. In the past committee ,,has always supported this definition and when Clarington submitted comments of th'e ,,PPS this w' asp „reflected in the comments. Eric Bowman moved-for Adiournnment.

MINUTES 1.1 Motion by S. DeJong, seconded by B. Carmichael That minutes of January 2013 be accepted as presented. "Carried" BUSINESS ARISING 2.1 C. Abraham and G. Bell met with Tom Ujfalussay and members of the Lions Club to discuss whether it would possible to have the Lions be the hall board's exclusive bartenders (see attached). In the discussions it became apparent that the Lions were thinking of a set up much like what COAA has with the Lions for bartending. They have exclusive access to bar room; alcohol and mix are kept in the hall. C.Abraham has let Tom know that the hall board is not interested in this type of set up. Members have agreed they would like to continue as we have — no alcohol or mix is left in the building each client is responsible for bringing this in the day of their event. We are looking for the Lions Club to do the bartending for each client not to necessarily run the bar room. C. Abraham and G. Bell will continue to work with Lions to this end. 2.2 Councillor Woo met with receptionist at Apple Dentistry it is understood that the Hall Board does not tell our clients to park anywhere but in our lot and the public parking spots. It is also noted that our parking lot is used by clients using the strip mall on a regular basis. The strip mall has now marked their apartment client's spots with signage. This should eliminate anyone causing problems for their tenants in the future. 2.3 G. Bell has met with Geek Girl and started plans for website video. Lisa will be attending 3 events and filming throughout the building over the next few months. C. Abraham has volunteered to star in the video. 2.4 The kitchen has had tiles put into all cupboards by Steve. Rona Hardware donated 3 boxes of tiles for this project. Steve will purchase trim for flooring and cupboard handles from Rona. Thank you letter to be sent to Rona 2.5 C. Abraham will coordinate moving of furniture for office.

Discussed future of bowling alley i.e. Liberty Bowl teams would like to become part of this bowling alley. Secretary will look back in minutes to report on the history of the bowling i.e. is this a sub committee or does the association own the lanes. 8.3 C. Abraham brought up subject of board making decisions on email. Does not feel this is suitable when not all members are on email and not everyone reads their email on a daily basis. When issues arise as much as board would like to deal with them we are not obligated to make decisions immediately. Board meets on monthly basis if issue arises with client they should be informed of this and that their concerns will be addressed when board meets. There was further discussion but a consensus was not reached. 8.4 Village Concerts have been booked with the exception of July 2 2013 as we have a paying client using the auditorium for a free concert on this day. Board agreed Village Concert should be cancelled for this evening as the doors may be open for this event. 8.5 Events Coordinator spoke with Mark Lathangue on Feb 12 2013, who has booked wedding for Sept 14 2013. He was asking for paperwork for booking of Sept 13 for set up of his wedding. Apparently, events coordinator had told him he could have this date via email conversation. He had re- forwarded the emails but they have never reached our inbox. Normally, coordinator would enter date into calendar and do up paperwork prior to deleting email. She does not have any record of doing this. Unfortunately, the date of Sept 13 has been booked for another wedding so is no longer available for set up. Coordinator apologized for this oversight and offered to give them extra time the day of the set up and to bring items in to hall earlier in the week to be stored. Also indicated that we have word ed with their decorator many times and there would no problem for them to get decor done in the morning on the day of their wedding. Mark asked that fee for set up of 180 chairs in gazebo be waived for error. At first coordinator said she could not do this, but in second conversation asked Mark to "leave this with her" with the intent of referring to board at Feb 19 meeting. On Feb 13 bride (not on our contract) contacted Councillor Partner with complaint (see attached email). Mark followed up with phone call to Councillor Woo. Motion by S. Rogers, seconded by S. DeJong That Mark Lathangue wedding will have the fee for set up of 180 chairs in the gazebo waived. Rehersal may be done on Thursday evening prior to wedding. Items for set up of the wedding may be brought in on Thursday or Friday and stored in room upstairs. Hall will be open 1 hour earlier 7 am on Saturday to give them more time for set up. "Carried" They would also like to return on Sunday to do clean up. No decision was made on this until we know exactly what it is they would like to return for i.e. removal of d6cor can be arranged by our office and decorator, alcohol and empties may not be left in the hall overnight. 8.6 Colin Rowe of Clarington Concert band has contacted office — would like to put on concert May 26 with proceeds going towards. fundraising campaign for hall. This could be incorporated into our 901h anniversary. Payment to band of $400.00 would come out of ticket sales. Colin will take care of promoting event via flyers and will do up tickets. Motion by W. Woo, seconded by P. DeJong That we work with Clarington Concert Band to put on concert May 26 2013. "Carried" 8.7 Motion by B. Carmichael, seconded by P.

Amend Map H1 by changing the population of the Penfound Neighbourhood from 3950 to 4040. Proposed amendment to Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision From: A total of 156 units, consisting of 90 lots for single detached dwellings and a block for 66 townhouse units. To: A total of 261 units, consisting of 59 lots for single detached dwellings and 10 semi detached lots (20 dwelling units); and 4 blocks for 192 "garden flat" apartment units. Rezoning To appropriate zones to permit the development of 3 storey, 12 unit "garden flat" apartment buildings, semi detached dwellings on 18.0 metre lots and single detached dwellings on 11.3 metre and 12.0 metre lots. 1.3 Area: 6.66 ha 2. LAND CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING USES 2.1 The subject site is currently vacant. 2.2 The surrounding uses are as follows: North - Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School South - Residential and a newly constructed commercial plaza East - Agricultural and single detached dwellings West - Residential REPORT NO.: PSD- 022 -13 PACE 4 2.3 Location: The subject lands are located on the west side of Prestonvale Road, north of Bloor Street and east of Meadowglade Road. (Attachment 1). Figure 1: Location 3.1 The subject property was originally draft approved as a secondary school block which the Kawartha Pine Ridge School Board opted not to pursue. In 2007, the applicant submitted Official Plan Amendment, Rezoning and Plan of Subdivision applications for Draft Plan of Subdivision S -C- 2007 -0007. The plan of subdivision was approved in October 2008 for 90 singles and a block for 66 townhouse units. 3.2 In July 2009, the applicant submitted a site plan application (SPA 2009 -0014) for the townhouse block. The proposal consisted of 66 block townhouses with units fronting onto Bloor Street and Meadowglade Road with garages at the rear of the units. It also incorporated three amenity areas totalling 0.13 hectares, including a landscape feature at the corner of Bloor Street and Meadowglade Road. The relevant departments and agencies had completed their review of the application. Aside from minor revisions to the Landscape Plan, all agencies were satisfied with the proposal and approval of the application was imminent. The proposed townhouses were three storeys in height to a maximum of 10.5 metres (see Attachment 15). 3.3 On September 7, 2011, Prestonvale Heights Limited submitted new applications to amend Zoning By -law 84 -63 and Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision S -C -2007 -0007. Through the public meeting report, staff identified concerns with the proposed revised subdivision layout. In order to address urban design concerns identified by Staff, the applicant submitted a revised plan, accompanied by an Official Plan Amendment application on April 18, 2012. 3.4 The following chart illustrates the differences between the Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision of October 2008 (Attachment 2) and the current proposal (Attachment 4).

The studies are summarized in Section 7 of this report. 4. PROVINCIAL POLICY 4.1 Provincial Policy Statement 4.1.1 The Provincial Policy Statement encourages planning authorities to create healthy liveable and safe communities by accommodating an appropriate range and mix of residential, employment, recreational and open space uses to meet long term needs. 4.1.2 New development in Settlement Areas shall occur adjacent to built up areas and shall have compact form, a mix of uses and densities that allow for the efficient use of land, infrastructure and public services. 4.1.3 Planning authorities are required to provide for a range of housing types and densities with a ten year supply of lands which are designated. New housing is to be directed to locations where infrastructure and public services are or will be available. A full range of housing types and densities shall be provided to meet projected requirements of current and future residents of the regional market area. 4.1.4 Infrastructure and public service facilities shall be provided in a coordinated efficient and cost effective manner. Planning for these shall be integrated with planning for growth so that they are available to meet current and projected needs. The use of existing infrastructure and public service facilities should be optimized where feasible before considering developing new infrastructure and public service facilities. r ! 4.1.5 Transportation systems should be provided which are safe, energy efficient, facilitate the movement of people and goods, and are appropriate to address projected needs. A land use pattern, density and mix of uses should be provided that minimize the length and number of vehicle trips and supports the development of viable choices and plans for public transit. 4.1.6 The applications are consistent with the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement as a mix of low and high,density housing is proposed. The subject lands are adjacent to the existing built -up area and will make use of existing infrastructure and public service facilities. 4.2 Provincial Growth Plan 4.2.1 The Provincial Growth Plan encourages municipalities to manage growth by directing population growth to settlement areas. The subject lands are outside of the 'built boundary' and are considered 'greenfield area'. Growth is to be accommodated by building compact, transit - supportive communities in designated greenfield areas and by reducing dependence on the automobile through the development of mixed use, pedestrian - friendly environments. Growth shall also be directed to areas that offer municipal water and wastewater systems. 4.2.2 Urban areas are encouraged to develop as complete communities with a diverse mix of land uses, a range and mix of employment and housing types, high quality public open space and easy access to local stores and services. The definition of a complete community states that it will meet "....people's needs for daily living throughout an entire lifetime by providing convenient access to an appropriate mix of jobs, local services, a full range of housing and community infrastructure including affordable housing, schools, recreation and open space for their residents. Convenient access to public transportation and options for safe, non - motorized travel is also provided." 4.2.3 The Provincial Growth Plan has set a minimum density target that is not less than 50 residents and jobs per hectare in the designated Greenfield areas. 4.2.4 Approval of the applications would meet the objectives of the Provincial Growth Plan. 5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan The Durham Regional Official Plan designates the subject lands as Living Area within the Durham Regional Official Plan. Lands designated as Living Area permit the development of communities with defined boundaries, incorporating the widest possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure to provide living accommodations that address various socio- economic factors. Further, Living Areas shall be developed in a compact form through higher densities and by intensifying and redeveloping existing areas, particularly along arterial roads. Regional Council shall support the review of development proposals currently in the approval process, to encourage higher densities where appropriate and promote area municipal official plans to maximize permissible densities for vacant lands. Regional Official Plan Amendment 128 (Growing Durham), as approved on January 9, 2013 by the Ontario Municipal Board, has identified Bloor Street as a Regional Corridor and Transit Spine. Corridors are to form the key connections between Centres and are considered the main arteries of the Region's urban structure. They provide for the movement of people and goods between the Centres to support their vitality. This designation was established to promote public transit ridership through well designed developments that have a mix of uses at higher densities. Development shall be sensitive to urban design considerations and shall be oriented to the corridor, complemented by the consolidation of access points. A long term density target of 60 residential units per gross hectare and a floor space index of 2.4 are to be supported within the Regional Corridor. The built form should include a wide variety of building forms, generally mid -rise in height with some higher buildings. The proposed uses conform to the Regional Official Plan and Amendment 128. 5.2 Clarinqton .Official Plan In the Clarington Official Plan the subject lands are designated as Urban Residential with a Medium Density Residential Symbol. The lands are within the Penfound Neighbourhood, which has a population allocation of 3950 and a housing unit target of 1400, including 150 medium density units. The applicant is requesting to amend the land use schedule to replace the medium density symbol with a high density symbol, increase the population allocation to 4040, reduce the medium density units to 75 and add 200 high density units. Table 9 -1 from the Official Plan outlines the residential density standards. The Medium Density designation would permit 4 storey low rise apartments within 100 metres of arterial /collector Road intersections. The proposal meets the criteria for Medium Density with the exception of the Net Density. The proposal will exceed the maximum net density criteria of 60 units. Medium and high density residential development will be reviewed on the basis of the following site development criteria: The site is suitable in terms of size and shape to accommodate the proposed density and building form; The proposed development is compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood in terms of scale, massing, height, siting, setbacks, shadowing, and the location of parking and amenity areas; Adequate on -site parking, lighting, landscaping and amenity areas are provided; and The impact of traffic on local streets is minimized. The Housing policies encourage a minimum of 30% of all new housing to be affordable. Affordable housing means that annual housing costs do not exceed 30% of the gross annual household income for households of low or moderate income levels. The Official Plan seeks to achieve a mix of housing types within each of the urban communities of Courtice, Bowmanville and Newcastle Village: ® 70% Detached and Semi - detached and similar housing forms; ® 20% Townhouses, walk -up apartments; and ® 10% Apartments. The goals of the South -West Courtice Secondary Plan are to provide a residential living environment that promotes a desirable quality of life and social interaction; and to provide a broad range of housing to meet evolving needs of current and future residents. Clarington Official Plan Amendment 77, approved by Council on March 26, 2012, introduced Urban Design policies for Corridors. The built form in part, is to be designed to: • Have buildings sited near the street line to contribute to a sense of enclosure and a strong street edge; • Locate main building entrances that are visible and directly accessible from the public sidewalk of the main street; • Enhance the built environment with attention to massing, building articulation, architectural detail, the use of local materials and styles; and • Enhance the pedestrian environment. Policies for Sustainable Design have also been introduced which promote higher densities to efficiently utilize existing infrastructure. Integration of transit into the early stages of new development is also promoted. The proposal generally conforms to the Clarington Official Plan with the exception of those items which are the subject of the application. 6.1 Within the Comprehensive Zoning By -law 84 -63, as amended, the lands are zoned a mix of residential zones to implement the 2008 Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision. A Zoning By -law amendment is required in order to implement the proposed amendment to draft approval -• - 7.1 Planning Justification Report Prepared by Sernas Associates, the Planning Justification Report states that the proposed development will have a high quality appearance facing Bloor Street, Prestonvale Road, Meadowglade Road, and the internal streets. The buildings will be paired with shared underground parking which allows for generous landscaping in the front, back and many of the sides of the buildings. The height and -form of the proposed apartment buildings would be classified as Medium Density. However, because the development utilizes below grade parking, the unit yield per hectare is higher than the maximum 60 units per hectare for medium density. The proposed net density is 90 units per hectare. The proposal will introduce high density units to the Penfound Neighbourhood. The apartment blocks will contain amenity areas in each block. Public walkways will connect the balance of the development to the intersections at Bloor and Meadowglade and Bloor and Prestonvale. The outdoor amenity area proposed is 22.3 m2 /unit which exceeds the Amenity Guideline requirements of 4m2 /unit. The guidelines recommend 2 m2 /unit of indoor amenity area although none is provided due to the size of each building and their unique design. The front doors of the apartment buildings will be connected to the sidewalk via short walkways similar to a single detached home, creating a pedestrian oriented environment (see Attachments 13 and 14). 7.2 Noise Impact Study Update Prepared by YCA Engineering Limited, the Noise Impact Study Update recommends 1.8 metre barriers for Lot 1, the Amenity Nodes within Blocks 60, 61 and 62 and for the Central Parkette between Blocks 61 and 62. A combination of noise fencing, berms and alternative "living wall" construction is proposed. Air conditioning will be required for the south unit in Block 60 and for all units within Blocks 61 and 62. Provisions for air conditioning will be required for lots 1, 20, 21, remaining units in Block 60 and for all units within Block 63, 7.3 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Prepared by Golder Associates, the Phase I Environmental Site-Assessment concluded that there are no issues of potential environmental concerns with the subject lands. 7.4 Traffic Impact Study GHD submitted a Traffic Impact Study in October 2012 and subsequent revision in December 2012 to address comments from the Engineering Services Department, The Traffic Impact Study provided the following conclusions and recommendations: During the weekday am and weekday pm peak hours, the proposed site traffic can be accommodated by the abutting road network; ® Based on the results of the analysis, there are no current or future queuing issues at the signalized intersections; ® The weekday pm peak hour of traffic does not coincide with the operating hours of Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School and therefore it is unlikely that commuter traffic will be negatively affected by the drop -off and pick -up of students; ® It is possible that the weekday am peak hour of traffic may overlap with activity at Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School due to the narrower margin of time separating the peak hours of commuter and school traffic; ® Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School has instructed parents that students are not to be dropped off at the school prior to 9:00 am. Education and enforcement may be required to ensure compliance with this directive; The school board is reviewing options such as, reducing the school population and providing additional parking, to address the pick -up /drop -off congestion on Meadowglade Road; ® Traffic generated from future development in the area is not related to the current traffic issues resulting from the pick -up and drop -off activities at the school; ® Based on the road network within the study area, traffic utilization of Cale Road by drivers from the surrounding developments will not be an issue; and ® The projected future 2020 volumes for Meadowglade Road are 3,400 to 5,300 vehicles per day which is below or well within the lower limit of the Regions criteria for a Type C Arterial roadway. All intersections under current and future conditions will function at acceptable levels with the exception of the eastbound left -turn movement at the intersection of Prestonvale Road and Meadowglade Road. The study suggested that the Municipality consider implementing higher levels of traffic control such as an all -way stop or signalization. • 8.1 A Public Meeting was held on May 28, 2012. Public Notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject property and a public meeting notice was installed on the property in the centre of each street frontage. 8.2 A Public Information Centre (PIC) was held on November 29, 2012 at Faith United Church. Notice for the PIC was mailed to landowners within 250 metres of the subject property. The PIC was well attended by over forty residents. 8.3 A number of submissions have been received by the Planning Services Department, including written comments collected at the PIC on November 29, 2012. Below is a summary of the main concerns: Traffic and Safety at Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School ® Traffic congestion in general, and specifically within the area surrounding Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School will be made worse by an increased population. -4 • Construction will make the roads unsafe for kids and /or traffic. Where will construction workers park? They are currently double parking on Partner Drive and sometimes blocking the street to hold conversations. • Concerned with young children's safety crossing Bloor Street to get to school and Rosswell Park. Bloor Street will be busier with 261 additional units. • Not enough enforcement of parking on local streets and student drop -off at Dr. G:J. MacGillvray Public School. • School Board should buy the parcel for expansion and additional parking. School Overcrowding • Dr. G.J. MacGillivray is already overcrowded, adding more population to the area will only worsen situation at the school. • Questioned population statistics and the number of students projected to be generated by the development. Parking • Concerned that 1.25 parking spaces per apartment unit is not adequate in an area without good transit. Little arrangement for street level parking. • Most single car garage homes cannot park two vehicles in their driveways and garages leaving one on the street most of the time. The one on the street will fill up with spaces for visitors. Desiqn • Apartments do not "mesh" or are "inconsistent" with the current neighbourhood. • Expected a suburban or hamlet environment over an urbanized "City" environment. • General appearance of the development is unappealing, "Looks like a fortress." Amenities and Transit ® Prefer a high school or open space / park to develop on the site. Area is not readily accessible without a personal vehicle. Transit only runs at peak times. Proposal would be better for Bloor and Townline, or Trulls Road and Highway 2, where commercial area and better transit is available. ® There are no grocery stores, banks or medical offices within walking distance. ® Taxes should be spent on building more community services in the neighbourhood. ® There are not enough parks north of Bloor Street. Property Values and Standards • Property values of surrounding residential area will be impacted negatively by the construction of apartments. • Lower quality of homes will attract crime and vandalism. • Residents in high density developments are less likely to care about the appearance of their dwellings. • Concerned that even though the applicant is proposing to market the apartments as condominiums they will become rental units or a social housing project. Other • Notification of the application was inadequate, The 120 metre radius is not far enough to notify all who will be impacted by this development, Notification signs on site were not noticeable or believed to be missing, • The developer doesn't care about the community. They will make their money and leave. • Concerned that if this is approved, what would stop applicant from pursuing even higher density in future. • Safety concern with the proposed walkway onto school property from the development, 8.4 The following comments were also received in support of the proposal: • Prefer the current proposal over the previously approved plan, provided the apartments will be'condominiums. • A resident expressed interest in the proposed condominiums as she wishes to downsize in the near future and would like a smaller unit within the community she lives in. One resident indicated a preference of one 10 storey high rise surrounded by more green space over the proposed 16 three storey buildings. 8,5 A petition was submitted on May 29, 2012 with 715 signatures in opposition to the proposed amendment from medium density to high density residential. 9. AGENCY COMMENTS 9.1 Rogers Cable Communications Inc., Bell and Enbridge Gas Distribution Inc. have no objections to the proposal. Conditions requested by the utility companies have been included in Conditions of Draft Approval. 9.2 On May 24, 2012, the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board advised that the proposal will generate up to 19 elementary students for Dr. G, J. MacGillvray Public School and up to 12 secondary students to Courtice Secondary School. Minor and Major overland stormwater drainage flows from the subject draft plan are to be self- contained and are not to enter the adjoining elementary school site, The existing 1.8 metre high galvanized chain link fence around the elementary school site is not to be altered or removed prior to, during and post any construction of the subject subdivision, In consideration of the number of units proposed, the Municipality of Clarington should investigate proposed traffic levels, turning movements and peak times and if necessary require traffic control sign(s) and /or traffic calming measures at the proposed intersection of Meadowglade Road /Partner Drive /Cale Avenue and along Meadowglade Road. Meadowglade Road has: 17 -yeltm A curvilinear design with four existing street intersections between Prestonvale Road and Bloor Street; A signed student crossing at Meadowglade Road and Robert Adams Drive; and Dr. G. J. MacGillivray Public School is our largest elementary school in terms of enrolment (2011/2012 Average Daily Enrolment is 777.25, and is projected to increase in enrolment). In December 2012, Superintendent Shelly Roy had discussions with Municipality of Clarington staff indicating that a walkway connection from Cale Avenue to the school was supported, provided,the walkway was dedicated to the Municipality. Board staff agreed that any pedestrian path changes to the existing Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School site to connect any municipally owned walkway block to the school building would be implemented by the Board. The Board does not object to the walkway. Further comments were provided on January 16, 2013 indicating that the proposed easement shared by Lots 7 and 8 for stormwater purposes is acceptable. The School Board requested the Municipality of Clarington to financially secure for the cleaning of the storm system alongside the proposed development on Dr. G. J. MacGillivray Public School lands. 9.3 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority ( CLOCA) have no objections to the proposed revisions. CLOCA conditions of draft approval from October 2008 remain applicable. 9.4 The Region of Durham Planning Department advised that the proposed amendment to the Clarington Official Plan would be permitted by the policies of the Regional Official Plan as the proposal promotes higher densities and is consistent with the intensification and transit oriented development policies. The Region of Durham Works Department does not have any objection to the further processing of the applications. The application has been screened in accordance with the terms of the provincial plan review responsibilities. The following issues are applicable: A Noise Impact Study — Update was submitted by YCA Engineering Ltd. in relation to this revised proposal. Appropriate attenuation measures (1.8m high barriers) are recommended for amenity areas and a central parkette along Bloor Street and'along the side and rear of proposed Lot 1 adjacent to Meadowglade Road. Appropriate warning clauses are recommended to make future occupants aware of the potential noise situation in the affected Outdoor Living and Amenity Areas and Parkette. Also, appropriate warning clauses are recommended with respect to the ventilation requirements for Indoor Noise for the affected units. The Subdivision Agreement prepared for the related draft approved plan of subdivision should contain the appropriate provisions to ensure that the recommendations and the warning clauses of the Update are implemented; A Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment was prepared by Golder Associates. The assessment indicated that there are no potential sources of environmental contamination in association with the site; and •' �, �, ® Any issues concerning stormwater management, grading and servicing are to be addressed to the satisfaction of the Conservation Authority. Municipal services are available. Previous conditions with respect to water supply and sanitary sewer service on the related draft approved plan of subdivision are still applicable. The proposed development does not present any significant impacts on Durham Region Transit. The application is considered to have no significant Regional or Provincial concerns. In accordance with Regional By -law 11 -2000, this application is exempt from Regional approval. • z., 10.1 Clarington Emergency and Fire Services, Clarington Operations and the Clarington Building Division have no concerns or objections with the proposed application. Should the application be approved, detailed comments relating to the high density blocks will be forwarded to the applicant to address through a subsequent site plan application. 10.2 Clarington Engineering Services have no objections with the applications. The applicant has submitted a Traffic Impact Study, Parking Plan, Grading and Drainage Plans, and a stormwater management brief to address previous concerns. The Traffic Impact Study has been peer reviewed and accepted by an independent Traffic Consultant on behalf of the Engineering Services Department. The Municipality will be pro - active in the spring of 2013 by installing an all -way stop control at the intersection of Prestonvale Road and Meadowglade Road, 11. DISCUSSION 11.1 The applicant has prepared additional details on the proposal to address planning related residents concerns. A review of the concerns and how they have been addressed by staff and the applicant are outlined in Section 11.2 to 11.8 below. 11.2 Traffic and Safety at Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Pubic School Neighbourhood concerns with traffic congestion associated with Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School, which is the largest school in the Kawartha Pine Ridge School Board system, were apparent prior to this application. Municipal staff have met with the Kawartha Pine Ridge School Board to discuss potential solutions. This included adding lands from the proposed development to reconfigure on -site parking and /or student pick -up and drop -off. Unfortunately the School Board does not have the funds to develop an on -site solution for the number of vehicles dropping off and picking up children from school. It should be noted that school parking lots are designed for employees and some visitors, although the school has retrofitted an area for a kiss and ride. Busing is provided for students living a prescribed distance from the school, while the School Board considers the balance of the student population to be,walkers. The School Board has advised that they have no jurisdiction to deal with traffic congestion issues that occur on the roadway, which is municipal property. However, they are prepared to assist the Municipality by educating students and parents about safe crossing protocols. The Dr. G.J. MacGillivray monthly newsletter regularly contains articles informing parents as to the expectations for dropping off and picking up students both on site and on the street. Reminders to obey the traffic rules and to respect the neighbours and crossing guards are present. During discussions with Municipal staff, the School Board suggested introducing a walkway between Lots 7 and 8 from the school grounds to Cale Avenue to alleviate traffic congestion on Meadowglade Avenue. This will provide alternate access to the school for pedestrians walking to the proposed development from the south and for those choosing to drive students to the school. The future residents of Cale Avenue will share some of the problems associated with school operations. Although in 2008 the School Board had requested that a walkway to the school site not be established due to safety concerns, they are now open to its inclusion. The School Board advised that they will implement on -site pedestrian path changes to the existing Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School site to connect any municipality owned walkway block to the school building. The School Board will be responsible for safety on their school site. The proposed walkway is 6 metres in width to accommodate a 3 metre wide walkway and enhanced plantings and fencing between the walkway and the residential area. Municipal Staff, through the Engineering Services Department, will be conducting a Public Information Centre in late spring of this year with respect to concerns and suggestions around the drop -off and pick -up of students at Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School. 11.3 Traffic Impacts of Proposal The Traffic Impact Study concluded that traffic from the development can be accommodated by the existing road network. It indicated that traffic from existing and future developments is not related to current traffic issues surrounding the school. Projected volumes for Meadowglade Avenue are well within the lower limits for a Type C Arterial Road. There may be some overlap of morning commuter traffic and morning student drop -off. 11.4 Parking for Garden Flats and On- Street Parking Zoning By -law 84 -63 requires 29 parking spaces for each pair of buildings, with eight pairs proposed, 232 spaces are required in total. The Planning Services Department typically requests an additional 0.25 spaces for visitors per unit, adding an additional 6 spaces for each pair and 48 spaces in total. Six surface parking spaces are available for visitors at each pair, two in front of each amenity node and four at the entrance of the underground parking area. There are 240 spaces for occupants, 15 spaces under each 12 unit building. The Engineering Services Department requires one on- street parking space for every four single and semi detached units. Eighteen on street spaces are required for the development while the applicant has illustrated 36 are available, doubling. the requirement (see Attachment 7). Typical Subdivision Agreements require developers to include a clause in the agreement of Purchase and Sale that sets out the Municipality's Traffic By -law 91 -58 pertaining to on- street parking. 11.5 School Overcrowding The School Board has advised that the proposed development will add up to 19 students to Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School, The School Board will be implementing program changes at the school which includes relocating grade 7 and 8 students to Courtice Secondary School in September 2013. Although this will reduce the capacity of the school, it will still be overcrowded necessitating portables. The School Board is undertaking a review of the boundaries for Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School. 11.6 Design Many residents expressed a concern that the development would appear as a fortress. To address this concern the applicant prepared streetscape views for Prestonvale Road and Meadowglade Road which depicts the 2008 approved plan compared with the current proposal (Attachments 13 and 14). As depicted in the Meadowglade streetscape view, the proposed garden flat apartments have a similar height to the previously proposed block townhouses. There is 12.2 metres between the proposed buildings where the townhouse blocks depict a maximum of 3.24 metres. The previously approved single detached homes on Prestonvale Road had a separation between dwellings of 1.2 metres on one side and 2.4 metres on the other. Although the building mass is larger than the singles, it is smaller than the townhouses. In addition, the current proposal provides more landscaped open space between buildings which will help minimize the appearance of an enclosed streetscape. The applicant has enhanced the elevations of the Garden Flats by providing three (3) different models (see Attachment 6). The applicant intends to provide variations of materials, colours and elements such as roof lines, windows and architectural details to ensure a varied streetscape. The proposed elevations compliment the architecture of the neighbourhood. Wei 3 11.7 Amenities and Transit The site is located within two Durham Transit Bus routes which operate at peak times. One route travels to Highway 2 between Courtice Road and Townline Road which provides access to a number of commercial uses. The other route travels along Bloor Street and accesses the GO Train Stations in Oshawa and Whitby. The Region has designated Bloor Street as a Regional Corridor and Transit Spine. Most of the Corridor is not serviced with transit at this time, however, this will improve as development continues. The Clarington Official Plan establishes a park system, comprised of District Parks, Community Parks, Neighbourhood Parks and Hamlet Parks. The neighbourhood parks in the area meet the established standard for the amount of parkland required. There are a number of parks both north and south of Bloor Street (see Attachment 8). There is a commercial plaza located directly to the south of the subject lands which is zoned to permit a wide range of commercial uses such as restaurants, retail, office, medical and dental, personal service uses, laundry mat and dry cleaning distribution. The plaza is occupied with a convenience store, dental office and optometrist. Two units are remaining to be leased. As the area matures, additional commercial uses are anticipated along the Bloor Street corridor. 11.8 Property Values and Standards Planning recommendations are based on the principles established by provincial, regional and local policies. Analysis is focused on compatibility of the built environment and land uses. Speculation on the value of properties or character of future residents is not a land use issue. The Municipality has Property Standards By- law 2007 -070 which established maintenance standards for all properties within the Municipality, including higher density developments. 11.9 Planning Comments The applicant has submitted the current proposal, in part, to address staff concerns with the 2011 proposal (Attachment 3) compared with the 2008 Draft Approved Plan (Attachment 2) which were: Increased infrastructure with fewer housing units. The road network increased by an additional 383 metres while the unit count dropped by 10; Addition of a window street parallel to Bloor Street would set back the housing from the arterial street and would act as a primary visitor parking area leading to a less attractive street edge; and 2.1 metre high noise fence with a 0.3 metre berm for units flanking Bloor Street. _ 1 The current proposal addresses the above by: ® The road network increases in length over the 2008 Draft Approved Plan due to the deletion of the block townhouses but has decreased by 204 metres from the 2011 proposal. ® Removal of the Window Street and provision of a built form that addresses the streets on all sides of the development. ® The siting of the proposed 3 storey, 12 unit garden flats has allowed for a reduction in the height of the noise barriers. There is no need for a barrier at the corner of Bloor and Meadowglade. This area is now open for a landscaped Amenity Area. The applicant is proposing to incorporate a living wall into the required noise barriers which will add to the landscape elements (See Attachment 5). 11.10 The Corridor polices of the Durham Region Official Plan support an overall, long -term density target of at least 60 residential units per gross hectare and a floor space index of 2.5. The proposed garden flat high density blocks achieve a density of 74 units per gross hectare and a floor space index of 0.93. The overall plan achieves a density of 39 units per gross hectare. The proposed plan supports the density objectives of the Provincial Policy Statement, the Growth Plan and the Regional Official Plan. Developments that support higher densities are encouraged in appropriate locations in order to develop communities that are both pedestrian and transit oriented. The proposed plan will increase the population by 111 persons from what was approved in 2008. 11.11 The Clarington Official Plan has been amended through OPA 77 to introduce Urban Design 'Policies for Corridors. The proposal has adhered to these policies by: Siting the buildings close to the street edge; and Providing public walkways through the apartment blocks to provide pedestrian access to the internal lots. , Staff met with the applicant in July to discuss the Urban Design policies and provided the following comments: • Ensure massing and heights are compatible with the existing community; • Lower the apparent height through the use of design elements; • Provide pedestrian connectivity and a generous central amenity area; • Consider covered parking area and utilize the top for private amenity areas (decks, gardens); and • Design the facade with similar rhythm and proportions to the existing community. The applicant has considered these comments in the refinement of their elevations (see Attachment 6). The comments will continue to be considered during the review of a future site plan application for the High Density Blocks should the Official Plan Amendment and Rezoning be approved. REPORT NO.: PSD- 022 -13 PAGE 19 11.12 The Residential Density Standards contained in Table 9 -1 of the Clarington Official Plan permits low rise apartments up to 4 storeys in height within the Medium Density Designation, Low rise apartments are permitted, provided the net density does not exceed 60 units per net hectare. The current application accommodates 90 units per net hectare. The higher density can be attributed to the efficient use of space through the provision of underground parking. If surface parking was provided instead the garden flats would comply with the medium density residential designation. Low rise apartments within the Medium Density Designation are encouraged to locate within 100 metres of arterial /collector road intersections. Both Meadowglade Road and Bloor Street are Arterial Roads, while Prestonvale Road is a Collector. 11.13 Complete communities have a variety of housing choices to accommodate their diverse population base. Traditionally, Courtice's residential development has been predominantly composed of single and semi - detached homes. A shift is underway to create more diverse neighbourhoods that provide a range of housing choices at varying levels of affordability, tenure and amenity. With an aging population, Clarington will need to accommodate developments suitable for seniors. The Official Plan has encouraged the provision of a diverse housing stock in terms of type, tenure, density and cost to meet the need of all residents. To achieve this, a mix of housing types has been targeted within each urban community. , In the last ten years, 412 apartments were built in Clarington. Only eight of those units were constructed in Courtice. These units were constructed above the plaza located at 15 Roswell Drive, immediately to the south of the subject lands. Courtice is significantly lagging in the provision of apartment units, given the rapid growth it has experienced, The applicant has developed the mixed use project on Roswell Drive. The two bedroom units are similar in size to the units proposed on the subject lands. The units currently rent for a minimum of $1,350.00 per month. As noted in Section 5.2, the Clarington Official Plan encourages a minimum of 30% of all new housing to be affordable. Affordable housing would not exceed 30% of the gross'annual household income for households of. low or moderate income levels. The Durham Housing Review Background Report (May 2011) indicated that according to the 2006 Statistics Canada Census, the income threshold for low or moderate income renter households is $43,031. Based on this income level, an affordable monthly rent or mortgage payment (including taxes) would be $1,076.00. It is unlikely that the proposed units would be considered "affordable" based on the above criteria. 11.14 The Municipality of Clarington "Amenity Guidelines for Medium and High Density Residences" requires 4m of outdoor amenity area per dwelling unit. The High Density blocks will require a total of 768M2, which is exceeded by the East, West and Central Parkette areas (see Attachment 5). An addendum to the Noise Study may be required as part of the Site Plan Approval for the High Density Blocks to ensure the appropriate mitigation measures are in place for the final layout of the amenity areas. NEPORT _ - _1V 11.15 Originally the subject land was approved as a Secondary School Block as part of Plan of Subdivision 18T- 95026. The conditions of approval for this subdivision required the owner to contribute five per cent of the value of the land proposed for development in lieu of parkland dedication. The conditions also required the applicant to contribute to the construction of Rosswell Park which was not considered part of the parkland contribution. The Clarington Official Plan requires either five per cent of the land, or 1 hectare for every 300 dwelling units, or an appropriate cash contribution in lieu of the land. Originally the applicant was required to contribute the value of 1.06 hectare. As the proposal will add 261 units to the 232 units already approved, the requirement for parkland would be 1.64 hectares, a difference of 0.58 hectares cash in lieu of parkland. 11.16 The applicant has provided concurrence with the attached Conditions of Draft Approval 11.17 All taxes payable to the Municipality of Clarington have been paid in full. 12. CONCURRENCE — Not Applicable 13. CONCLUSION 13.1 The proposal for amendments to Prestonvale Heights Limited draft approved plan of subdivision provides for a new housing type for Clarington. The garden flat units are a new way to deliver higher densities required by current planning policies in a modest three- storey format. This may be one of the more effective ways for Clarington to control sprawl and develop transit- supportive, walkable communities. The lands are located adjacent to or near a regional corridor that will develop incrementally over time. 13.2 Many of the existing traffic issues in this area are due to Dr. G.J. McGillivray School running at excess capacity. There are currently 11 portables on -site with plans to add a two room addition to implement full -day kindergarten in 2014. The School provides both the regular and French Immersion programs. The French Immersion program is popular and accounts for the majority of the students at the school drawing from a large catchment area. There is no significant difference between the existing approved draft plan of subdivision and the proposed revisions on this issue. Solutions are currently being implemented or considered to mitigate some of traffic issues in this area. 13.3 In consideration of the findings of all supporting studies, comments received from circulated agencies and area residents, and based on review of the proposal, staff recommends that the proposed Clarington Official Plan Amendment (Attachment 9), Zoning By -law (Attachment 11) and Conditions of Draft Approval (Attachment 12) be approved.
