PD- 133 -94 PAGE 2 1.5 Area: 3.297 hectares (8.14 acres) 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 In June of 1989, the Municipality's Planning and Development Department was advised by the Region of Durham of a proposed plan of subdivision located in Part Lot 31, Concession 2, in the former Township of Darlington. 2.2 In August of 1989, the applicant applied with the Municipality to amend Comprehensive Zoning By -law 84 -63 of the former Town of Newcastle in order to implement the proposed plan of subdivision. In addition, the applicant was informed by the Region that a portion of the subject lands were outside of the urban area and that an Official Plan Amendment would be required. The applicant subsequently filed the application and the Region circulated Official Plan Amendment application OPA 89- 067 /D /N to the Town. 2.3 The Municipality has recently received correspondence from the Region advising that the subject lands are now considered to be in the urban area and therefore, can be considered to be in conformity with the Regional Official Plan. Therefore, the Official Plan Amendment application is no longer required. 2.4 Public Meetings with respect to the proposed plan of subdivision and the proposed zoning amendment were held on January 8, 1990 and February 1, 1993 at which time both the applicant and his agent addressed the General Purpose and Administration Committee. Although no area resident addressed the Committee at the Public Meetings, Staff were of the opinion that it would be prudent to hold a third Public Meeting given the substantial changes to the proposal and the amount of time which has lapsed from the original Public Meetings. ....3 5,9 REPORT NO.

PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 3.1 Pursuant to Council's resolution of July 26, 1982 and the requirements of the Planning Act, the appropriate signage acknowledging the application was installed on the subject lands. In addition the appropriate notice was mailed to each landowner within the prescribed distance. 3.2 As of the writing of this report, no written submissions have been received. However, the Planning and Development Department did receive one counter inquiry and one phone inquiry from an area resident requesting more detailed information regarding the proposal. In addition, Staff have previously met with the agent of an abutting property owner. 4. OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY 4.1 Within the Durham Regional Official Plan the subject property is designated as a Living Area. The primary use of lands so designated shall be for residential purposes. Therefore, the application would appear to conform with the Durham Regional Official Plan. 4.2 The Official Plan of the former Town of Newcastle establishes a target population of 4300 for the 112B Neighbourhood. The proposed plan of subdivision has been reviewed within the context of the target population and Staff have determined that the approval of the application would not offend the intent of the target population. 5. ZONING BY -LAW COMPLIANCE 5.1 Within Comprehensive Zoning By -law 84 -63 of the former Town of ...4 510 REPORT NO. PD- 133 -94 PAGE 4 Newcastle, the subject property is zoned in part "Agricultural (A)" and in part "Holding - Urban Residential Type One ((H)R1)". As the applicant is proposing to develop a portion of the lands with street townhouses, the applicant has applied to amend the zoning by -law. 6. AGENCY COMMENTS 6.1 The proposed plan of subdivision was circulated to various agencies by the Durham Regional Planning Department. Concurrently, the Municipality of Clarington Planning and Development Department undertook a circulation of the proposed zoning by -law amendment. The following provides a brief synopsis of the comments received to date. 6.2 The Community Services Department has advised that they have no objection to the proposal subject to the parkland dedication requirement being accepted as cash -in -lieu on the basis of 1 hectare per. 300 dwelling units, with the funds realized being credited to the Parks Reserve Account. 6.3 The balance of the circulated agencies which provided comments were the Clarington Fire Department and the Regional Planning Department. Neither of these agencies provided objectionable comments with respect to the subject application. Clarington Public Works Department, Regional Works Department, Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority and Ministry of Natural Resources have all yet to respond to the circulation. 7. STAFF COMMENTS 7.1 As the purpose of this report is to satisfy the requirements of the Planning Act with respect to a Public Meeting and in consideration of the outstanding comments, it would be in order to have the application referred back to Staff for further processing and the preparation of a subsequent report. i ...5 i REPORT NO.
