PD-63 -92 PAGE 2 1. 4 Area: 3 .77 hectares (9. 3 acres) 2 . BACKGROUND 2 . 1 On July 5, 1988, the Town of Newcastle Planning and Development Department received an application from Ridge Pine Park Inc. to amend By-law 84-63 . Subsequently, the Town was advised by the Regional Planning Department of an application submitted by Ridge Pine Park Inc. to amend the Durham Regional Official Plan. 2 . 2 The proposal is situated on a 3 .77 hectare (9. 3 acre) parcel of land located on the west side of Wilmot Creek Road north of the Canadian National Railway but is more formally described as Part Lot 3 , Broken Front Concession in the Former Township of Darlington. 2 . 3 A Public Meeting was held on Monday October 3 , 1988 at which time four area residents expressed concerns regarding the proposed development with respect to the impact the proposal may have on the existing mobile home park. Since a substantial amount of time has lapsed since the original Public Meeting and since the applicant has added a recreation centre to the proposal, Staff were of the opinion that a second Public Meeting was warranted in order to ensure that the requirements of the Planning Act were satisfied. 3 . PUBLIC NOTICE 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, the Planning and Development Department has not received any written submissions or telephone inquiries with respect to the proposal. . . . . 3 REPORT NO. PD- 63-92 PAGE 3 4. OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY 4. 1 Within the existing and recommended Durham Regional Official Plans the subject property is designated as Permanent Agricultural Reserve and therefore, the predominant use of land shall be for agricultural and farm-related uses. Since the applicant is proposing to develop the site with non-agricultural uses, an amendment to the Durham Regional Official Plan is required. 5. ZONING BY-LAW COMPLIANCE 5. 1 Within the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63, the subject property is zoned "Agricultural (A) " which permits the use of the subject property for agricultural and farm related uses. Since the applicant is proposing to develop the subject property with non-agricultural uses, an amendment to the By-law is required in order to permit the development. 6. AGENCY COMMENTS 6. 1 In accordance with departmental procedures, the zoning by-law amendment application was circulated to obtain comments from other departments and agencies. In addition , the Regional Planning Department has undertaken a circulation of the related Official Plan Amendment application. However, since the revised plans have only recently been circulated, the Planning and Development Department has not received any agency comments, as of the writing of this report. 7 . STAFF COMMENTS 7. 1 As the purpose of this report is to satisfy the requirements of the Planning Act with respect to the 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. �� . . . .4 REPORT NO.
