Durham Regional official Plan and the Town of Newcastle Official Plan.
Section 8.2.2.1 of the Regional Official Plan, states the uses that
would be permitted within the Central Areas and it would appear that the
use would conform to the intent of the Regional official Plan.
4.2 Within the Town of Newcastle Official Plan, the subject lands are
designated as "Low Density Residential". Limited commercial and/or
professional office space is permitted within said designation, and
inasmuch as the existing building will remain, the general character of
the area will be maintained.

5.4 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority offered no objection to
the rezoning application, however have concerns with respect to the
drainage of the lands. The Authority suggested that the proponents
contact the Authority to resolve these concerns. In addition, the site
is subject to Ontario Regulation 161/80, whereby written permission is
required prior to any filling or grading on the site.
6 COMMENTS
6.1 Staff have reviewed the proposal with the intent of the Official Plan
policies, and would note that limited professional office space is
permitted within a Low Density Residential designation. In that regard,
Staff would note that the building will be maintained and will retain the
appearance of a single family dwelling, the use will not significantly
alter the character of the existing neighbourhood.
6.2 The applicants have proposed that the second storey will only be used for
storage of goods and materials as required for the practice.
Notwithstanding that the zoning category will be an exception to the
existing R1 zoning, the amending by -law will only recognize the
dental clinic and facilities for storage.
6.3 A preliminary site plan has been submitted by the applicants and Staff
would note that ample parking has been provided on the site. Through
various similar applications for doctor /dental clinics, the issue of
adequacy of parking has been a concern. It is noted that the Town's
By -law requires 5 spaces per doctor, whereas this particular application
would provide 8 spaces per doctor well in excess of the By -law
requirements. The applicants will also be required to provide fencing
and landscaping along the lot lines, particularily the west side were the
property abuts a residential use.
