BACKGROUND 1.1 By letter dated June 7, 1989 (copy attached), Mr. Worboy, on behalf of Mr. & Mrs. Hills, requested the Town to remove the One Foot Reserve on his 25.3 acre property located in Lot 22, Concession 7, former Township of Darlington 599 24 REPORT ______________________________________________________________________________ NO.: � PD-191-89 PAGE 2 1.2 This 35.3 acre parcel was separated from the ocyioul farm holding due to expropriation by Ontario Hydro of lands surrounding this property in 1980. At the time of expropriation, a One Foot Reserve in favour of the Town was placed along the entire frontage of this 25.3 acre property. Staff cannot ascertain ooto the reasons why this One Foot Reserve was imposed. 2. COMMENTS 2.1 Section 3.6 of the Tzvnz'o Comprehensive Zoning By-law states as "Notwithstanding any other provisions of this By-law to the contrary, where a lot having a lesser lot area and/or frontage than required herein was legally conveyable prior to the date of passing of this By-law, or" where such a lot is created as a result of an expropriation or a conveyance to an authority with expropriation -Powers, such smaller lot may be used and a building or structure may be erected, altered or used on such smaller lot, provided that all other applicable zone provisions of this By-law are complied with." 2.2 Inasmuch as the Zoning By-law recognizes the principle of development of a smaller lot as a result of expropriation, Staff is of the opinion such One Foot Reserve is contrary to this principle and would recommend such reserve be removed.

BOX 21 153 SIMCOE STREET NORTH OSHAWA, ONTARIO L1H 7K8 June 7, 1989 Department of Planning and Development Corporation of the Town of Newcastle 40 Temperance Street BOWMANVILLE, Ontario LIA 3A6 Dear Sir /Madam: Re: Wesley A. HILLS Part Lot 22, Concession 7 Newcastle (Darlington) Our File: 8182/85 Please be advised that the writer is solicitor for Mr. and Mrs. Wesley A. Hills. Mr. Hills is the owner of approximately 25.3 acres located on the south half of Lot 22, Concession 7, formerly: Geographic Township of Darlington, now designated as Part 2, Plan 10R -1219. A photocopy of the said reference plan is enclosed for your records. You will notice that the hydro expropriation surrounds this 25.3 acres of land and accordingly, it has been somewhat difficult farming the 25.3 acre parcel. Pursuant to Deed dated December 5, 1980, and being registered in the Registry Office, Part 3, Plan 1OR -1219 was conveyed to the Town of Newcastle. A copy of the first page of this Deed is enclosed for your records. I am writing on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Hills to request that the Town of Newcastle release Part 3, Plan 10R -1219 as shown on the copy of reference plan enclosed. In view of the fact that Ontario Hydra owns the abutting property which completely surrounds the 25.3 acres, we submit that it is only reasonable for the Town of Newcastle to release and re- convey the one ( 1 ) foot reserve back to Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Hills.
