REPORT
Meeting: General Purpose and Administration Committee File # sx_15 r
Date: Monday, June 5, 1995 Res. # Ca
Report #: PD -59 -95 File #: By -law #
Subject: CLARINGTON DRAFT OFFICIAL PLAN
1 PUBLIC MEETINGS
PERTAINING TO SUBMISSIONS TO THE DRAFT OFFICIAL PLAN
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and
Administration Committee recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD -59 -95 be received for information.
1. The Clarington Official Plan Review process has now progressed
to a stage where Staff is ready to bring forward a report to
deal with all the public submissions to the Clarington Draft
Official Plan.
2. In order to conform to the requirements of the Planning Act,
a public meeting must be held and those who made submissions
and other persons be given the opportunities to speak at the
public meeting. Prior to the public meeting being held,
notices must be served 30 days in advance. This effectively
will cause the public meeting to be held at the earliest, in
the early part of July. However, scheduling any public
meeting in prime vacation months of July and August would not
be convenient to a fair number of individuals involved in the
process. In addition, there is a real concern that there may
not be a quorum as the matter is further complicated by the
possibility of the loss of a Council member as a result of the
Provincial election.

3. Having considered the above, and subsequent to consultation
with the Chief Administrative Officer and the Chairperson of
Planning, it was concluded that the public meeting should be
held over to September. In this regard, we have selected
September 14 and 15. Public notice will be sent out prior to
August 14, 1995.
4. The postponement of the public meeting will most likely delay
the delivery of the Official Plan before year end.
Respectfully submitted,
