PUBLIC MEETING
(a) Subject: Application to Amend the Zoning By-law 84-63
Applicant: Republic Live Inc.
Report: PSD-045-13
Anne Taylor Scott, Planner, made a verbal and PowerPoint presentation to the
Committee regarding the application.
Susan Lloyd Swail, Principal, Planit Connections Consulting Services, spoke in
opposition to the application. She made a verbal presentation to accompany a
PowerPoint presentation. Ms. Swail reviewed her understanding of the proposed use,
the relevant portions of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan (ORMCP), and the
definition of an unserviced campground which does not conform with the uses outlined
in the application. She also noted that the application does not conform with the
Clarington Official Plan. Ms. Swail suggested that the 2015 review of the ORMCP
would be an appropriate time for the Municipality to provide input for changes.

Minutes
September 9, 2013
Ken Kerrigan, local resident, spoke in opposition to the application. He stated that the
application was for a temporary use, but in reality it is not a temporary use. Mr.
Kerrigan explained that the event was already too large and will impact the Oak Ridges
Moraine. He stated that the by-law should be aligned with existing agricultural uses and
should conform to decent behaviour. Mr. Kerrigan provided other examples, of a
temporary use application, within the province. He noted that Republic Live has not
addressed the use after the three years, yet Republic Live has an agreement with
Canadian Tire Motorsports Park (CTMP) to run the Festival for 15 years. Mr. Kerrigan
stated that he is disappointed with CTMP and the Municipality of Clarington for its
continued misuse of properties on the moraine.
Leslie Kerrigan, local resident, spoke in opposition to the application. She made a
verbal presentation to accompany a PowerPoint presentation. Ms. Kerrigan provided
the Committee with her definition of camping as compared to the density of camping
that took place at the Boots & Hearts Musical Festival. She informed the Committee
that washroom facilities were provided, but not always used. Ms. Kerrigan displayed
photos showing garbage on the site. She noted,that dangerous activities, such as mud-
bogging, took place during the Festival which harmed the soils of the moraine. In
conclusion, Ms. Kerrigan stated that these activities are not conducive to the spirit of the
Oak Ridges Moraine Act and the concept of camping. She urged the Committee to
deny the zoning by-law application.
Justin Oliver, local resident, spoke in opposition to the application. He expressed
concerns regarding the concert, traffic, drinking, and garbage. Mr. Oliver informed the
Committee that his family picked up the garbage on the street after the Festival. He
stated that the police officers stationed at his property shone lights into his house all
weekend. Mr. Oliver added that he felt like his family was held hostage in their own
home. He was particularly concerned with the traffic delays. Mr. Oliver noted that he is
not against the event in the community, but that he feels that some respect must be
paid to local residents with regard to traffic and drinking issues. He confirmed that a
system of special identification for the local residents, in order to get in and out of their
homes, would have mitigated the traffic situation.
Carolyn Molinari, CM Planning, representing Fourteen Estates, local property owner,
spoke in support of the application. She stated.that this application is an opportunity to
enhance an important tourism node in Clarington. Ms. Molinari quoted a section from a
letter submitted to the Planning Services Department, by Fourteen Estates. She added
that the proposed use is well suited to the property. Ms. Molinari stated that there is
considerable demand for camping without impacting the agricultural use of the land.

Minutes
September 9, 2013
Kevin Anyan, local business owner, spoke in support of the application. Mr. Anyan
noted that the vision statement of the Oak Ridges Moraine Act (Statement#3) includes
references to sustainable tourism development, to which he believes this application
conforms.
Valerie Cranmer, representing Republic Live, spoke in support of the application. Ms.
Cranmer informed the Committee that the applicant submitted an application for a
temporary use by-law to indicate that there is a commitment, by Republic Live, to make
the appropriate planning applications and to identify the lands to be used for camping.
She added that a temporary use by-law was applied for in order to develop a longer
term Official Plan Amendment, which, in her estimation, would take approximately two
years. Ms. Cranmer noted that it was only recently that the Planning Services
Department confirmed that an Official Plan Amendment application would definitely be
required. She addressed the question of conformity by noting that the proposed
camping conforms to the provincial policy statement within the context of recreational
and tourism context. Ms. Cranmer noted that the property is only used for two weeks
and there is no agricultural impact. She added that she attended the site on the
Tuesday following the event and witnessed people cleaning the camping property. Ms.
Cranmer noted that the use on private property is similar in use to those on public
property. She informed the Committee that the application conforms to the Region of
Durham's Official Plan. Ms. Cranmer noted that she will be meeting with the Planning
Services Department regarding the Official Plan Amendment application.
(b) Subject: Application for a Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision and

paper deals with major recreational uses in agricultural areas including golf courses.

minor hamlet rounding out may be approved as part of the Official Plan Review. Ms.
Langmaid noted that urban/rural fringe and Whitebelt lands are addressed in the
discussion paper. She added that it is the decision of the Region of Durham to extend
urban boundary expansions. Ms. Langmaid illustrated, using the PowerPoint

expansion. She informed the Committee the next Public Information Session is

1999 and 2002. The.dwellings on lots to the south are completed, except for two lots (4
semi-detached/link units) frozen at the end of Cotton Street in the location of a temporary
cul-de-sac. This was approved and built with the expectation that Cotton Street would be
extended in the future.
2.3 The proposed draft plan of subdivision includes the extension of Cotton Street (192
metres) and the creation of four (4) blocks for 24 street townhouse units. The plan also
includes Open Space blocks that include environmental protection lands, a road widening
and an emergency access.

with access via Cotton Street. The lands are otherwise vacant and have been used for
agricultural purposes. The main branch of the Soper Creek and a tributary cross the site
(see Figure 3).

3.2 The surrounding uses are as follows:
North - Soper Creek tributary, CP Railway, stormwater management pond
South - Existing residential development (townhouse, semi/links, single
detached dwellings)
East - Soper Creek and valley system
West - Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision 18T-95030
4. PROVINCIAL POLICY
4.1: Provincial Policy Statement (PPS)
The PPS identifies settlement areas as the focus of growth. Land use patterns shall be
based on densities and a mix of land uses that efficiently use land, resources and
8-5
REPORT NO.: PSD-052-13 PAGE 6
infrastructure. Natural features, surface water features and ground water features shall
be protected.
4.2 Provincial Growth Plan
The subject lands are within the greenfield area as defined by the provincial Growth Plan.
The Growth Plan establishes the target of 50 jobs and residents combined per net
hectare in the greenfield area. This target is measured across the Region of Durham.
The Growth Plan encourages the creation of complete communities that are compact and
transit-supportive, offering a diverse mix of land uses, a range and mix of employment
and housing types, high quality public open space and easy access to local stores and
services. The Growth Plan supports the identification and protection of natural heritage
features and areas that complement, link, or enhance natural systems. The proposed
development will result in approximately 53 residents per hectare.
5. OFFICIAL PLANS
5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan
The Durham Regional Official Plan designates the subject lands Living Area. Key Natural
Hydrologic and Heritage Features and High Aquifer Vulnerable areas exist in the area.
Lands within this designation shall be used predominantly for housing purposes
incorporating the widest possible variety of housing types, sizes, and tenure. Living Areas
shall be developed in a compact form through higher densities and by intensifying and
redeveloping existing areas, particularly along arterial roads. Key natural heritage and
hydrologic features are to be protected. Greenfield areas in the Lake Ontario Shoreline
municipalities shall develop at a minimum gross density of 50 persons and jobs
combined per hectare.
5.2 Clarington Official Plan
Within the Clarington Official Plan, the subject lands are designated Urban Residential
and Environmental Protection Area. Lands are within the Apple Blossom Neighbourhood
which has a current population allocation of 4,750 and a housing unit target of 1650.
The subject lands are within 120 metres of natural heritage features including a
watercourse and significant valleyland. An Environmental Impact Study is required to
assess any development proposals within 120 metres of a natural heritage feature and to
define the development limit.
Mearns Avenue is a Type C Arterial Road and Cotton Street is a local road.
6. ZONING BY-LAW
6.1 Zoning By-law 84-63 zones the subject lands Agricultural (A) and Environmental
Protection (EP). A rezoning is proposed to permit the 24 townhouse units.
8-6
REPORT NO.: PSD-052-13 PAGE 7
7. PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS
7.1 Public notice was given by mail to each landowner within 120 metres of the subject
property and two (2) public meeting signs were erected; one along Mearns Avenue and
at the end of Cotton Street.
7.2 At the time of writing this report, two (2) individuals have contacted staff regarding the
application with concerns about the townhouse development moving forward, including
compatibility with existing semi/link units, impact to property values, and traffic.
8. AGENCY COMMENTS
8.1 Region of Durham
At the time of writing this report, comments from the Region of Durham have not been
received.
8.2 Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority
CLOCA has no objection to the principle of development however several items need to be
addressed prior to providing support of the proposed subdivision, including:
• Defining hazard lands;
• Eliminating encroachment into slope stability setback;
• Avoiding and assessing encroachment into 30 metre setback from watercourse
through the Environmental Impact Study; and,
• Addressing technical comments regarding stormwater management and the
meander belt width assessment.
8.3 Other Agencies
Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board, Durham Region Transit, Bell and Rogers
have no objections. Comments from other agencies are outstanding at this time.
9. DEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
9.1 Engineering Services
Prior to final approval of the subject subdivision, the applicant will be required to
satisfactorily address comments relating to traffic, grading and drainage, servicing and
stormwater management. The submitted traffic study is satisfactory and intersections in the
vicinity will continue to operate with a Level of Service A/B which is excellent.
The Owner will also be required to address items relating to future use of other lands
owned by the applicant, future service connections, construction of an emergency access
8-7
REPORT NO.: PSD-052-13 PAGE 8
to Mearns Avenue, payments relating to front ending agreements, and dedication of a 5
metre wide trail to connect to the Soper Creek trail.
9.2 Fire & Emergency Services
The emergency access route must be signed appropriately.
9.3 Operations Department
The Operations Department has no objections.
10. DISCUSSION
10.1 The subject lands are within the urban area and designated for residential development.
However, the site is highly constrained and difficult to develop due to:
• Fixed alignment of Cotton Street;
• Inability to obtain a full secondary access along Mearns Avenue given the future grade
separation of the railway at Mearns Avenue;
• Watercourses/valleylands crossing the site; and,
• Proximity to the CP Railway.
10.2 Much of the overall site is designated Environmental Protection Area, including the Soper
Creek valley and a minor tributary which traverses the lands. The applicant is proposing to
dedicate a portion of these lands through this application and the plan shows the balance
as "other lands owned by applicant". All lands that are associated with the Soper Creek
valley and the tributary should be incorporated as open space blocks for dedication.
Additional discussion with the applicant is required on this matter.
10.3 The street townhouses proposed are six (6) metres in width. In recent years, the
Municipality has been requiring 7.5 metre townhouse lots due to parking concerns. The
single loaded road in this proposal provides for sufficient on-street visitor parking, provided
the use of the "other lands owned by applicant" can be determined.
10.4 Technical comments raised by departments and agencies will continue to be reviewed and
addressed by the applicant and their consultants.
11. CONCURRENCE — Not Applicable
12. CONCLUSION
12.1 The purpose of this report is to provide background information on the proposed draft plan
of subdivision and rezoning submitted by Zemer Holdings Ltd. for the Public Meeting under
the Planning Act. Staff will continue processing the application including the preparation of
a subsequent report upon resolution of the identified issues.

2. BACKGROUND
2.1 On August 23, 2013 an application was submitted requesting that the (H) Holding
Symbol be removed from Part 1 to 7 on Registered Plan 40R 27997. Parts 1 to 6 were
approved through applications to the Land Division Committee for the creation of semi-
detached/link lots with 24 metre minimum lot frontages. The consent application for Part
7 (LD075-2012) was tabled by the Land Division Committee until it could be determined
that these lands would not be required to access the balance of the retained lands.
3. STAFF COMMENTS
3.1 The (H) Holding Symbol is a provision enabled by the Official Plan to ensure that certain
obligations have been considered prior to development and redevelopment of the lands.
This includes: servicing, access, protection of natural areas, measures to mitigate the
impact of development, submission of required studies, execution of agreements and
any other requirements as may be deemed necessary by Council including the
implementation of the policies of this plan.
3.2 The subject property is zoned "Holding — Urban Residential ((H)R1) Zone".
Council must be satisfied that the provisions of the Official Plan are met prior to
removing the Holding Symbol and building permits can be issued. The applicant has
entered into an agreement with the Municipality and there are no concerns with lifting
the `H' Symbol for Parts 1 –6.
3.3 Staff have met with the applicant to discuss a proposal for the development of the
balance of these lands. At the time, the applicant had a concept for a multiple unit
residential development. Details with respect to the access for the future development
were undetermined at the time; as such staff recommended to the Land Division
Committee to table LD075-2012 until such time as the relevant planning applications
were submitted with all supporting documentation and access to the site could be
evaluated by Staff. Therefore, Staff are not recommending the removal of the (H)
Holding Symbol on Part 7.
3.4 A Zoning By-law Amendment to remove the (H) Holding Symbol cannot be appealed
and shall be deemed final and binding upon Council's approval.
3.5 All property taxes have been paid in full.
4. CONCURRENCE - Not applicable
5. CONCLUSION
5.1 In consideration of the comments noted above, approval of the removal of the (H)
Holding Symbol for Parts 1 to 6 on 40R-27997, as shown on the attached By-law and
schedule (Attachment 1) is recommended. Furthermore, staff recommend that a by-law
8-12
REPORT NO.: PSD-053-13 PAGE 4
to remove the (H) be forwarded directly to Council, if and when the approval for consent
application for Part 7 on 40R-27997(LD075-2012) is granted and the applicant has
entered into the appropriate development agreement with the Municipality of Clarington
in keeping with Official Plan policies.

1.4 Location: . All lots and blocks in Plan 40M-2497, being Part Lot 13, 14, & 15,
Concession 3, former Township of Darlington (see Figure 1).
2. BACKGROUND
2.1 On June 12, 2013 an application was submitted requesting that the (H) Holding Symbol
be removed from Plan 40M-2497, registered on August 7, 2013.
2.2 Draft Plan of Subdivision S-C 2007-0004 was initially draft approved in 2008 with minor
amendments in 2009 and 2011 (see Figure 1). Registered Plan 40M-2497 is the first of
many phases in Draft Plan of Subdivision S-C 2007-0004 to be registered (see Figure
2). There are lands in 40M-2497 that were not part of the first registration because of
sanitary sewer capacity constraints at the Port Darlington Water Pollution Control Plant.
It is likely that these lots will be registered in the next phase once capacity is available,
Spring 2015. Also the lots fronting on the west side of Edwin Carr Street cannot
develop as they fall within the area of influence of Abe's Auto Wrecking Yard to the
east, and must await the auto wrecking use to cease.

3. STAFF COMMENTS
3.1 The (H) Holding Symbol is a provision enabled by the Official Plan to ensure that certain
obligations have been considered prior to development and redevelopment of the lands.
This includes: servicing, access, protection of natural areas, measures to mitigate the
impact of development, submission of required studies, execution of agreements and
any other requirements as may be deemed necessary by Council including the
implementation of the policies of this plan.
3.2 The subject site is currently zoned:
"Holding-Urban Residential Exception ((H) R1-75) Zone ", "Holding-Urban Residential
Exception ((H) R2-65) Zone", "Holding-Urban Residential Exception ((H) R2-66) Zone",
"Holding-Urban Residential Exception ((H) R2-67) Zone" , "Holding-Urban Residential
Exception ((H) R2-68) Zone", "Holding-Urban Residential Exception ((H) R2-69) Zone",
and "Holding-Urban Residential Exception ((H) R3-35) Zone".
Council must be satisfied that the provisions of the Official Plan are met prior to
removing the Holding symbol and no building permits can be issued. The applicant has
entered into a subdivision agreement with the Municipality and there are no concerns
with lifting the `H' symbol for Phase 1.
3.3 A Zoning By-law Amendment to remove the (H) Holding Symbol cannot be appealed
and shall be deemed final and binding upon Council's approval.
3.4 All property taxes have been paid in full.
4. CONCURRENCE - Not applicable
5. CONCLUSION
5.1 In consideration of the comments noted above, approval of the removal of the (H)
Holding Symbol for lots and blocks in 40M-2497, as shown on the attached By-law and
schedule (Attachment 1) is recommended. In addition, a by-law to remove the (H)
Holding Symbol on subsequent phases of S-C 2007-0004 will be forwarded to Council
once all conditions contained in the corresponding subdivision agreement and as
outlined in the Clarington Official Plan with respect to the removal of the (H) Holding
Symbol are satisfied.

ATTACHMENT 2
TO REPORT PSD-056-13
Description of Activities/Achievements of
Frank Stapleton
The Clarington Heritage Committee (CHC) is pleased to nominate Mr. Frank Stapleton for the
Lieutenant Governor's Ontario Heritage Award for Lifetime Achievement. As the fifth generation
of Stapleton's in Newtonville, Frank is motivated by his deep-rooted commitment to heritage
conservation and the community. Mr. Stapleton has been a highly active advocate for many
decades and a number of heritage projects have benefitted from his involvement.
Three of these stand out as major contributions to the conservation of history and built heritage in
the Municipality of Clarington and the Province of Ontario. The first is the conservation of The Old
Grist Mill property which came into the Stapleton Family,when Frank's parents bought it in 1944.
When milling operations ceased a few decades later, this beautiful site was reborn as a part-time
auction centre and continues as the original location of Stapleton Auctions, a 42 year family-run
business.
The second is the restoration of the former Burley B/A Gas Station property. The property was
purchased in 1980 by the Stapleton's and the structure has been rejuvenated by careful
refurbishment to its original 1955 retro look. This 'Art Deco 'gas station/garage is a fine example
of the corporate B/A template built across Canada by British American Oil throughout the fifties.
Moreover, it is believed the Newtonville B/A Station may be the last of its kind still standing.
Today, the location serves as Stapleton's on-site Auction Centre, keeping the B/A theme as the
centre of local heritage attraction.
The third is the identification and conservation of the Newtonville School House.This building,
was one of the first school houses in the area. Today, the school house structure has been
repurposed as another facility for Stapleton Auctions.
Locally, before, during, and after his years as a former councillor, Frank Stapleton has been
providing leadership and dedication to his community throughout his entire adult life. He has
served on numerous community boards and routinely acts as a volunteer auctioneer at
community fundraisers benefitting local heritage sites and agencies. Along with his wife, Betty,
Frank has contributed historic photos and articles on local heritage for print and publication
including a commemorative book, celebrating the 150th anniversary of Newtonville Community
Hall. The Stapleton's helped to co-ordinate and lead the Newtonville Walking Tour as part of
Doors Open Clarington in 2011. Most recently, both co-chaired a fundraising drive to build a
gazebo on Ina Brown Parkette in Newtonville. This little parkette is on the property of the original
school built in 1883, unfortunately it was later destroyed by fire.
This combination of Frank's passion for the place he lives and loves and his lifelong service as a
key member of his community have contributed greatly to heritage conservation in Clarington.
Frank is an inspiration of how heritage and the creativity of entrepreneurship thrives in the finest
citizens in our province.
Mr. Stapleton has gone above and beyond to ensure that the rich heritage of his homestead in
and community of Newtonville is.conserved and protected for future generations.

Description of Activities/Achievements of
Garfield Shaw
The Shaw family has been in Bowmanville and Port Darlington for many generations, The Shaws
married into the Morrison family and Garfield is a descendent of David Morrison Sr. who was also an
avid local historian and wrote the Bowmanville column in the Orono News for many years, His son
David Morrison Jr. worked at Goodyear but was also interested in local history. He was one of the
authors for the 1958 book"Bowmanville:A Retrospect" and was the official historian of the
Bowmanville Rotary Club (George Vice succeeded him).
Garfield Shaw inherited this love of local history. No doubt enhanced by his youthful memories of happy
summers in Bowmanville (Gar grew up in Toronto). He has collected and maintained in-depth files on
all facets of Bowmanville history. In 1980 he provided all the historical captions for the book"Picture
the Way We Were: A Pictorial History of Darlington and Clarke Townships". His captions are superior in
scope and depth to the usual ones seen in this kind of project and greatly enhance the historic value of
the book. In the last twenty-four years Gar has been a reliable and accurate resource for many local
history projects. He has provided historical information for many private researchers as well as many
museum projects. Many a museum journal and newspaper article has benefitted from his expertise.
He was a research and editorial assistant for the book"Bowmanville: An Architectural and Social
History" by Diana Grandfield.
Through family connections and his own collecting Gar had amassed a sizeable collection of
Bowmanville photographs and memorabilia. Almost all of it has been donated to the Bowmanville
Museum. An enormous research project he undertook a number of years ago was to collect information
on a variety of subjects on Bowmanville. The result is almost eighty binders of which some of the topics
covered are; businesses, sports, churches,community organizations, notable people and local
industries. He has also donated these books to the Bowmanville Museum and they are consulted daily
for many diverse historical questions. Recently, his three binders on the Bowmanville Boys'Training
School contributed information on Camp 30,which would have otherwise remained unknown.
Gar remains a valued colleague and is always on hand, usually via e-mail,to provide insight, input and
information on any research requests I need assistance with. His knowledge of Bowmanville Main
Street merchants is particularly comprehensive. Gar's contribution to local history is very significant and
much of the Museum's success with historical articles and generation of enthusiasm for local history can
be traced back to him. Often his contribution is"behind the scenes" so it would be nice to see him
recognized with an Ontario Heritage Award. I can think of no one more deserving.

Description of Activities/Achievements
Karin Murphy& David Reesor
Karin Murphy and David Reesor are both long-serving members of the Clarington
Heritage Committee (CHC), and have supported its activities enthusiastically throughout
several appointed terms. But that is not why the CHC has nominated there for
recognition by the Ontario Heritage Trust, under the Heritage Community Recognition
Program in the Built Heritage category.
Clause 27. (1) of the Ontario Heritage Act states; "The clerk of a municipality shall keep
a register of property situated in the municipality that is of cultural heritage value or
interest" and further(1.2) "In addition to the property listed ...the register may include
property that... the Council of the municipality believes to be of cultural heritage and
value"... The listing of all such properties must include a description"that is sufficient to
readily ascertain the property.."
These very short clauses describe a herculean task. Clarington is a large geographical
area covering 612 sq. km., it formerly was two townships Clarke and Darlington in the
County of Durham. The area was first settled in the very 1700's when the forests were
cleared, homesteads sprung up and farming and forestry were the major enterprises.
Today, agriculture is still the major economic driver of Clarington and many of the
stately homesteads and barns have survived. In addition the Municipality has four urban
areas each with historic homes and structures and 12 hamlets, all of which were centres
during the settlement of the area.
The Municipality began compiling Clarington's Heritage Inventory in 1986, a heritage
consultant was hired to review and plot the municipality's wealth of interesting buildings.
These were graded as Designated,Primary, Secondary or Merit, and heritage structure
maps for Bowmanville, Clarke,Darlington,Newcastle and Orono were produced. Some
860properties were identified at that time. However, due to time and financial constraints,
many structures in outlying areas were never fully documented. The inventory has been
updated periodically over time but it has not been photographed and documented in a
comprehensive way.
In 2007, Karin Murphy and David Reesor stepped in. For the past six years, Karin and
David have worked as a team, scouring the far-flung reaches of Clarington to document
houses, farm buildings, crumbling railway bridges— the many and varied features of
Clarington's disappearing history. With camera and white-board at the ready, they've
searched out hidden architectural gems and tumbled-down tobacco sheds, undeterred by
wind, rain or unfriendly dogs. Their years of dedicated work have resulted in
8-31
photographic records of all the buildings listed in the Heritage Inventory and many
additional structures. Today, the Municipality has a priceless photographic record of
many hidden rural and urban treasures.
Karin and David methodically plotted their plan of attack,working in the spring and fall
when the leaves were off the trees, they worked their way through the municipal address
book maintained for the Fire and Emergency Services. This required scouting out all the
back roads of the municipality in a grid pattern to ensure that they had checked each
address for heritage structures. Karin and David were also careful to not enter onto
private property or impinge on owners' privacy. However, they were often invited in by
curious house-proud owners.
The photographic inventory is housed within the Planning Services Department and
invaluable for the verification of various structures and buildings. Many of the photos
from Karin and David's inventory were used to populate the heritage website at
heritage.clarington.net Karin and David continue to update the photographic records as
additional issues are discussed by the Heritage Committee, such as the impeding loss of
many rural streetscapes due to the 407 construction.
Although typically it is an individual nominated each year, for the Built Heritage
category under the Heritage Community Recognition Program, the Clarington Heritage
Committee is nominating the team of Karin Murphy and David Reesor for this honour, in
light of their outstanding collective contribution to Clarington's Heritage Inventory.

1. PURPOSE OF REPORT
1.1 At its May 13, 2013 meeting, Council considered the minutes of the January 22, 2013
meeting of the St. Marys Cement Community Relations Committee (CRC). The minutes
indicated that the nitrogen oxide and sulphur dioxide emissions for the St. Marys plant in
2012 exceeded their allowances for the year as set by the Government of Ontario, and
that St. Marys had used banked allowances from previous years to cover their 2012
emission exceedances. (This practice is permitted by the cap and trade regulations
discussed in Section 2 of this report).
1.2 Council resolved (Resolution # C-164-13) to refer the minutes to staff for the preparation
of a report regarding St Marys' expected levels of emissions for 2013, the number of
exceedances they have experienced in the last five years, and the amount of
allowances purchased in the last five years. This report has been prepared in
response to Council's resolution.
2. EMISSIONS CAPS AND TRADING
2.1 Nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulphur dioxide (S02) are universally recognized as
significant smog-causing pollutants, and many governments have initiated various
actions to reduce the industrial emissions of these two air pollutants. One of the
initiatives adopted by the Province of Ontario to reduce NOx and S02 pollution is
"emissions trading", also known as "cap and trade".
2.2 Emissions cap and trade uses a market-based approach to control pollution by
providing economic incentives to achieve reductions in the emission of pollutants. The
amount of a pollutant that a facility can emit is capped and the limit of the cap is
gradually reduced over a number of years. A company that emits fewer pollutants than
permitted by its cap for a particular year can "bank" its unused allowance to meet its
future reduction requirements or "sell" the unused allowance to another emitter. This
allows a facility to bank unused allowances during an economic downtown and then tap
into these banked allowances as the economy improves.
2.3 The value of any unused allowances increases as the limit of the cap is reduced. As a
result, the cap and trade system is, designed to financially reward companies with high
environmental performance, while requiring companies with lower environmental
performance to pay to exceed their emissions caps.
2.4 Through the issuance of regulations issued under the Environmental Protection Act, the
Government of Ontario has adopted a cap and trade approach to control and gradually
reduce the amount of NOx and S02 emitted by industries in Ontario. Seven large
industrial sectors, including the cement sector, became subject to the regulations in
2005, with 2006 being the first year of implementation.
8-34
REPORT NO.: PSD-057-13 PAGE 3
2.5 Regulation 194/05 established the emissions caps for NOx and S02 for each industrial
sector with the permissible caps decreasing in stages over a number of years. The NOx
and S02 caps for the cement sector set by Regulation 194/05 are shown in Figure 1.

19,872 19,1361 17,835 14,875 22,3391 21,8201 20,773 16,139
As indicated by Figure 1, the allowable NOx emissions for the cement sector in Ontario
are intended to decrease by approximately 25% from 2006 to 2015, while the allowable
S02 emissions are intended to decrease by approximately 28%.
2.6 The Regulation also establishes emission caps for specific facilities within each sector,
recognizing that each company will have varying levels of production. The permissible
emissions limits are based on an "intensity rate" (tonnes per unit of regulated product)
using formulas provided in the Regulation. Each "capped" emitter is required to monitor
its actual emissions throughout the year and report the emission amounts to the
government. At the end of the year, if a capped emitter's emissions are equal to or less
than the number of allowances it is permitted for that year, the emitter is considered to
have achieved compliance.
2.7 Figure 2 shows the NOx and S02 emission intensity rates for the St. Marys Bowmanville
plant set out by Regulation 194/05.

As noted above, formulas provided in the Regulation allows a company to determine its
annual emission allowances for NOx and S02. Based on its production in 2012, the St.
Marys' Bowmanville plant was permitted to emit 2,808 tonnes of S02 and 2,553 tonnes
of NOx (discussed in Section 3 of this report).
2.8 The Ontario Emissions Trading Registry for NOx and S02 created by the Government of
Ontario tracks the creation, transfer and use of allowances and emission-reduction
credits. The provincial emission targets for each pollutant apply to the combined total

REPORT NO.: PSD-057-13 PAGE 4
emissions for all sectors, thereby allowing a company to purchase or sell emission
allowances with another sector if necessary.
3. ST. MARYS CEMENT BOWMANVILLE PLANT
3.1 Figure 3 shows the total NOx emissions and allowances for the St. Marys' Cement
Bowmanville plant for the years 2006-2012, while Figure 4 shows the NOx data for
2012. These two figures indicate that the plant had 1,381 tonnes of banked NOx
allowances for the years 2006-2011, plus an allowance of 2,553 tonnes for 2012,
providing a total NOx allowance of 3,934 tonnes. This allowance was sufficient to cover
the 2012 emissions, leaving 643 tonnes of unused NOx allowances that can be applied
against NOx emissions in future years.

3.2 Similarly, Figure 5 shows the total S02 emissions and allowances for the St. Marys plant
for the years 2006-2012, while Figure 6 shows the S02 data for 2012. These two
figures indicate that the plant had 3,421 tonnes of banked S02 allowances from 2006-
2011, plus an allowance of 2,808 tonnes for 2012, providing a total S02 allowance of

REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 2
1.0 BACKGROUND
At its December 10, 2012 meeting the General Purpose and Administration
Committee recommended to Council:
"THAT staff be directed to organize a public meeting including area residents
regarding traffic issues near Lydia Trull Public School and Dr. G. J. MacGillivray
Public School;
THAT Municipal Law Enforcement Staff, Clarington Fire and Emergency
Services, The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board (KPRDSB), and
Durham Region Police Services (DRPS) be invited to participate in the meeting;
and;
THAT the standard public meeting notice protocol be followed to provide notice
of the public meeting."
The Committee's recommendation was ratified by Council on December 17,
2012.
2.0 PURPOSE
The purpose of this report is to:
• update the Committee with respect to the outcome of the Public Meeting
• outline previous meetings/discussion between the Municipality and
KPRDSB on this matter
• advise the Committee what other measures have been taken by Municipal
staff in an effort to relieve congestion and encourage students to walk to
school
• update the Committee on the Board's upcoming site plan application
3.0 PUBLIC MEETING
At Counci!'s direction engineering staff, in consultation with KPRDSB, DRPS and
Municipal Law,Enforcement set May 29th for the Public Meeting and extensively
circulated the date, time and location:
• in each of the school's newsletter
• on the Municipality's web-site
• on Facebook
• by letter mailed to 289 homes in the vicinity of each school
Further a questionnaire was posted on the Municipality's web-site in which
residents and parents could express their concerns/comments.
On May 29th, engineering staff, along with representatives of the School Board,
Durham Regional Police Services and Municipal Law Enforcement held the
9-23
REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 3
Public Meeting at Faith United Church in Courtice. Thirteen individuals
(representing twelve addresses) attended the meeting and seven Comment
Sheets and e-mails were received before, during and after the meeting.
3.1 LYDIA TRULL PUBLIC SCHOOL
Only one individual associated with Lydia Trull Public School attended the Public
Meeting, and that individual had no particular concerns. Staff have never
received any traffic-related complaints associated with this school, and in
conversation with the principal, she stated that she had never received any
complaints regarding traffic around the school. Staff have reviewed the
parking/stopping restrictions and signage around the school and found them to
be appropriate.
3.2 DR. G. J. MACGILLIVRAY PUBLIC SCHOOL
Twelve individuals attended the meeting who lived in the vicinity of Dr. G. J.
MacGillivray Public School.
The traffic congestion during morning drop off and afternoon pickup around Dr.
G. J. MacGillivray has been long documented and the KPRDSB, DRPS and
Municipal Law Enforcement, Engineering staff, Planning and Emergency
Services have all received complaints. The types of the complaints are:
• significant traffic congestion during morning drop-off and afternoon pickup.
• violations in the No Parking and No Stopping areas (adding to congestion
and decreasing visibility as one exits the school property).
• blockage of private driveways by those, generally, waiting to pick up their
child in the afternoon.
• lack of a properly designed Kiss and Go lot (the current Kiss and Go was
a later retrofit in the staff parking lot).
4.0 DR. G. J. MACGILLIVRAY PUBLIC SCHOOL ISSUES
4.1 The number one complaint around this school, as stated, is significant traffic
congestion and concern for pedestrian safety. The school was opened in
September 2002 with an English curriculum and a French Immersion stream.
The school was designed for an enrollment of 600 students with no Kiss and Go
lot.
At a meeting on May 31, 2012 with representatives from KPRDSB, municipal
staff were informed that it was anticipated that 951 students would attend this
school in 2013 and 990 the year after that (not including the upcoming full-time
kindergarten students).
Because the French Immersion students come from a large area, many parents
drive their children even though busing is available. This is the one factor that
makes this school different from others.
9-24
REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 4
4.2 . Staff started to receive significant complaints regarding traffic in this area early in
2012. Engineering staff reviewed the crossing guard location, No Parking and
No Stopping zones with DRPS and Municipal Law Enforcement as early as 2008,
and after improvements were made at that time, staff could not see where any
additional improvements could be made within the municipal right-of-way. A
detailed memo was sent to Mayor and Council on April 30, 2012 outlining the
problem of severe congestion and the resultant problems associated with the
issue of over capacity. The memo concluded by stating:
"Staff feel that this matter is a joint safety issue between the Municipality and the
KPRDSB. Staff will be meeting with representatives from the Board, including
the school principal and the school council, along with Durham Regional Police
Services and By-law staff, to develop a solution which is efficient and which
places safety as a priority. As previously stated, it is the opinion of the school,
DRPS, By-law and Engineering staff that the No Parking and No Stopping zones
should remain unchanged in order to allow for adequate visibility and safe
passage on Meadowglade Road for pedestrians and the travelling public. The
objective of the meeting will be to investigate all options to alleviate congestion;
however, the main focus will be to find on-site solutions, including an improved
design of the on-site Kiss and Go service."
4.3 In July 2012, Municipal staff retained an expert in traffic circulation to investigate
on-site potential improvements to the school site. Five alternatives were
presented in concept to staff. All required alterations to the school site to:
• expand and improve the operation of the Kiss and Go program.
• increase on-site parking.
In the meantime, KPRDSB employed a new Superintendent of Education-
Western Area (which includes former Darlington Twp.) and the Board hosted a
Public Meeting at Dr. G. J. MacGillivray "to discuss and obtain public comment
on a proposed program change at MacGillivray to reduce enrollment pressure."
The report from the Superintendent of Education and the Superintendent of
Business and Corporate Services to the Kawartha Pineridge District School
Board Resource Committee concluded with the recommendation "That the Grade
7 and 8 English and French Immersion Program be moved from Dr. J.
MacGillivray Public School to Courtice Secondary School (CSS) effective
September 2013." Since that time, KPRDSB has stated that it will not consider
any on-site modifications, despite numerous suggestions from engineering staff,
until the impact of moving the Grade 7's and 8's is fully realized. It has been
municipal staff's opinion that these older students are not the ones being driven,
but representatives from the Board disagree with that assertion and are of the
opinion that there will be some relief to the traffic congestion once these students
move to CSS.
9-25
REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 5
4.4 In response to questions from residents in the area, through Councilors Woo and
Hooper, the Director of Planning e-mailed staff comments to Mayor and
Members of Council on April 15, 2013 which stated:
Resident Question:
The overcrowding of the school and the impact it has on the neighbourhood. The
accommodation of packing the students into one location has stretched the
resources which has a negative impact. Lack of green space for the children to
play. Shortage of equipment i.e. band equipment, which was fundraised, for the
large student population.
Director of Planning Response:
The overcrowding of the school does have an impact on the neighbourhood.
Staff have tried to engage the school board on a number of occasions (meetings
and conference calls) to address the problems around the overcapacity of Dr. G.
J. MacGillivray School. The Board admits that the school is over 50% over
capacity. Despite work done by Engineering Services to look at options to
improve on-site parking and Kiss-n-Ride, the School Board has indicated that
there are no funds available for site improvements.
The Municipality does not have any control over the number of portables placed
on the property. The Municipality approved the school site plan in 2001. The
approved site plan provided for 4 portables. I believe at present there are 11
portables on site. Under the Planning Act, any school existing prior to January 1,
2007 is exempt from site plan control for portables. There are no legal
impediments that would allow the Municipality to refuse a building permit.
However, the school board will need to apply for additional kindergarten space
which would be a permanent addition.
Starting next fall, Grade 7 and 8 of the French stream will be attending at
Courtice Secondary School. 'The 7's and 8's are not the ones typically, being
driven. Additionally, the school will have a fulltime kindergarten in, I believe
2015, and many of those younger kids will be driven. Secondly, in conjunction
with the new Duke of Cambridge School in Bowmanville, the district boundaries
are being redefined.
As noted in the report, MacGillivray is the largest school in the KPR system.
Council could put the KPR on notice that due to the continuing overcrowding of
the school site, we would not consider expansion of the school with new
kindergarten classrooms until this matter is addressed.
5.0 AREA IMPROVEMENTS IMPLEMENTED BY STAFF
5.1 Throughout this period of time, staff continued to look at ways in which safety
could be improved and walking to school could be encouraged. In some of the
comments and e-mails received, parents expressed concerns about allowing
9-26
REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 6
their child to walk to school due to heavy traffic congestion. Ironically, the
parents' solution was to drive their child to school which, obviously, adds to that
congestion.
An all-way stop warrant analysis was conducted at the intersections of
Prestonvale Road/Meadowglade Road and Prestonvale Road/Glenabbey Drive.
All-way stop control is warranted where certain thresholds of total intersection
volume, traffic split and pedestrian volumes are met. Staff determined last winter
that these two intersections are close to meeting warrants, and all-way stop
controls were installed in June of this year.
5.2 Additionally, staff can advise that sidewalks on the east side of Prestonvale Road
from Meadowglade Road to Claret Road are being designed this year, and their
construction is being considered in the 2014 Capital Budget and Forecast.
53 Further, the residential subdivision to the south of the school was draft approved
without a walkway from Cale Avenue to the school block at the request of the
Board in 2008. Recently, staff have consulted with the Board and the developer,
and a 5.5 wide pedestrian connection will be constructed when the Huntington III
Subdivision proceeds. This walkway is wider than typical walkways in order to
provide enhanced landscaping and a more attractive pedestrian connection than
is typically constructed.
5.4 Municipal Law Enforcement and DRPS have been very attentive to the issues in
the vicinity of the school, and they attend this area as often as resources permit.
6.0 UPCOMING SITE PLAN
On August 8, 2013 staff convened a preconsultation meeting with
representatives from KPRDSB regarding the Board's upcoming site plan
application to construct an addition to the school to accommodate full-time
kindergarten students. The meeting was attended by Engineering staff, Planning
staff, Conservation Authority staff and three members of the KPRDSB.
A new addition is proposed to the public school to accommodate six classrooms
of full-time kindergarten students in September 2014. Engineering staff clearly
stated their concerns regarding the existing traffic congestion on Meadowglade
Road. Staff do not anticipate that the transfer of 180 Grade 7 and 8 students
plus the addition of six classes of full time kindergarten students will result in any
improvement to the existing problem.
The Board was informed that this site is premature for any additional
development and staff recommended that the Board retain the services of a
transportation engineer to investigate opportunities (including additional
accesses) to improve on-site circulation and the operation of pick up and drop
off.
9-27
REPORT NO.: EGD-032-13 PAGE 7
7.0 CONCLUSION
The Municipality is very aware of the significant congestion around Dr. G. J.
MacGillivray Public School particularly during morning drop-off and afternoon
pick-up. Staff have made the following improvements to the area to increase
pedestrian safety and to promote students walking to school:
• all-way stops are now warranted and have been installed at the
Prestonvale Road/Meadowglade Road and Prestonvale Road/Glenabbey
Drive intersections.
• sidewalks on the east side of Prestonvale Road are being designed this
year and will be considered in the 2014 Capital Budget and Forecast.
• a pedestrian connection from future Cale Avenue to the school block has
been successfully negotiated with the developer.
• The Municipality is continuing to work with the KPRDSB regarding on-site
improvements to help relieve congestion on the municipal road to the
satisfaction of the Director of Engineering Services and Director of
Planning Services through the site plan process.
Staff will continue to monitor the traffic at MacGillivray Public School and will
work with the School Board, parents and area residents to improve the traffic
concerns relating to the school site.
8.0 CONCURRENCE
This report has been reviewed by the Director of Planning Services who concurs
with the recommendations.

Subject: PARKING ON DRIVEWAY APRONS
RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report EGD-033-13 be received; and
2. THAT the Municipality continue its practice of prohibiting parking on a municipal
boulevard in accordance with Sect. (6) of By-law No. 91-58 being a by-law "To
Regulate Traffic on Highways, Municipal and Private Property in the Municipality
of Clarington".

9-30
REPORT NO.: EGD-033-13 PAGE 2
1.0 BACKGROUND
1.1 From time to time municipal staff are requested to consider parking prohibition as
it pertains to parking on driveway aprons. Aprons are that part of the driveway
between the edge of the pavement and the property line. The driveway apron is
part of the boulevard.
1.2 Section (6)- Parking Restrictions and Prohibitions in the Municipality's By-law No.
91-58 being a by-law "To Regulate Traffic on Highways, Municipal and Private
Property in the Municipality of Clarington" (Traffic By-law) states:
"No person shall on any highway park any vehicle:
(J) on or over any boulevard [unless the boulevard has been improved
specifically for that purpose]."
1.3 The reason that this prohibition was included in the Traffic By-law is because the
presence of a vehicle parked on the boulevard obstructs the vision of a driver
backing out of an adjacent driveway. The presence of a vehicle in the boulevard
also blocks a driver's vision when one is backing out, and they both are parked
side-by-side in their driveway. This results in reduced sight lines and potentially
impairs visibility. Specifically:
- A driver backing out of their driveway may not be able to see oncoming traffic
due to the presence of vehicles parked on the boulevard.
- A driver may not be able to see pedestrians, particularly children, where the
boulevard is not clear of parked vehicles.
Further:
- Vehicles parked in the boulevard can obstruct and interfere with access to
utilities located in the boulevard (e.g. gas, water mains, water connections,
sanitary connections, foundation drain connections to the storm sewer,
telephone, cable, hydro, and overhead wires).
- Vehicles parked in the boulevard are subject to damage by winter control
activities due to their proximity to the travelled portion of the road.
1.4 Generally, this section of the Traffic By-Law is only enforced on a complaint
basis. In other words, cars parked on aprons may cause visibility issues which
are reported to the Municipality.
2.0 OTHER MUNICIPALITIES' PRACTICES
2.1 Staff have communicated with By-law staff from each municipality in Durham
Region. Each municipality prohibits parking on a boulevard in the same manner
as the Municipality's current by-law does.
9-31
REPORT NO.: EGD-033-13 PAGE 3
3.0 AVAILABILITY OF PARKING IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS
3.1 In the late 1990's, smaller lot sizes and frontages than those that had been
typically created in the past were being approved, and at the same time,
households were acquiring more vehicles per household and more recreational
vehicles such as boats, trailers, snowmobiles, etc. Staff were receiving
increased complaints of illegal parking, particularly on the street. In response, in
1998 staff submitted a report to Council recommending that policies be reviewed
and appropriate strategies be developed to address the problems encountered in
newer residential areas. One of the recommendations which was implemented
was to "require a minimum of two outdoor parking spaces on all lots [except
townhouses]", since garages are often used for storage as opposed to parking
vehicles. This strategy would ensure that even if a homeowner's garage were
full of stored items, there would be at least two parking spots available on-site. A
corresponding amendment to the Zoning By-law was made in 1999.
3.2 Another strategy implemented at that time was to require developers (at the draft
plan of subdivision stage) to submit an on-street parking layout to ensure that
sufficient on-street parking is provided. The plan must provide one on-street
parking spot for every four single/semi-detached homes and one spot for every
three townhouses. While on-street parking has its own prohibitions, this strategy
is intended to ensure sufficient on-street parking for visitors and the like.
3.3 As well, at the same time, staff reviewed that section of the Traffic By-law
prohibiting parking on the boulevard in consideration of making that area
available for parking. Ultimately staff did not recommend a change to the By-law
out of concern for safety, and Council concurred with staff's recommendation.
4.0 SUBDIVISION AGREEMENT
4.1 In an effort to effectively communicate the Municipality's parking policies and
restrictions to new homeowners, it has been a longstanding Municipal policy to
require developers to include clauses in all Offers of Purchase and Sale advising
purchasers of parking restrictions. The potential purchaser can then make an
informed decision with respect to whether or not the on-site parking is sufficient
for their needs.
5.0 CONCURRENCE:
Manager of Municipal Law Enforcement concurs.
6.0 CONCLUSION
6.1 In conclusion, it is staffs opinion, for reasons of public safety, that parking on
driveway aprons continue to be prohibited as outlined in By-law 91-58, and that
current policies are sufficient to provide on-site parking and on-street parking to
residential areas.

ITEM 20(a)
Mr. David J.Crome
Director of Planning Services
Municipality of Clarington
40 Temperance Street
Bowmanville, ON
L1C 3A6
RE: Appeal to application by Zemer Holdings Limited for a proposed Draft Plan of a Subdivision and
Zoning at/on Part of Lot 8,Concession 2, Former Town of Bowmanville,247 Mearns Avenue,
Bowmanville
Dear Mr. Crome,
My fiancee and I are writing to appeal the application by Zemer Holdings Limited for a proposed Draft
Plan of a Subdivision and Zoning at/on Part of Lot 8, Concession 2, Former Town of Bowmanville, 247
Mearns Avenue, Bowmanville.
We purchased our home on Cotton Street in Bowmanville in April of this year. We were extremely
proud of the detached home we were able to purchase as first time home buyers. All of our hard work
had finally paid off. We chose Bowmanville because we loved the "small town"feel, cleanliness,
quietness, and friendly environment. My fiancee and I chose a 40 minute commute back and forth to
Ajax everyday where we teach in order to live in our preferred setting and community. Our plan was to
get married and commence a family in this home. This idea will have to be reconsidered if Cotton Street
became a through street to this new subdivision. Everything we dreamed of for our first home would be
gone as a result of this subdivision.
We understand why the City of Bowmanville would need and want the development of new housing
and would greatly appreciate it if you took our wants, needs and desire into consideration as well. We
disagree and are upset with this proposal for three main reasons, listed below;
1. Our Street is home to a number of children and maybe one day ours. These children are always
on their bikes, playing hockey, chasing one another and finding grass hopers. By making Cotton
Street a through street we are putting these children's safety at risk. The construction of 24
townhouses would increase vehicle traffic by a minimum of 24 cars.
2. Building townhouse units would devalue the value of my detached home. The strength of the
investment we thought we were making as first time home buyers would no longer exist. One
may argue that more homes increase the value of a home. In our eyes, this is not the case. We,
as do many others, enjoy living away from the hustle and bustle of a large city and purchased
our homes for the green space the property afforded us.
20-1
3. Building this subdivision in the proposed location can potentially disrupt the ground in which the
Via Rail train track lies. This train track is busy in terms of train traffic and the last thing we want
to see is a tragedy occur(i.e. derailment) due to settled land being disturbed in our
neighbourhood. We sincerely hope that all protocols are followed and that necessary parties
are notified of the plan to develop the land near this train track. Please note, we will ensure of
this for our safety.
At best, my fiancee and I do not want this subdivision to be developed. A number of our neighbours, if
not all of them, feel the same way. Please consider the following option if the need for development on
this specific piece of land is an absolute must. We would appreciate it if Cotton Street became Cotton
Court or Circle. In other words, not a through street. The new subdivision can then easily be accessed
from Mearns Avenue. The "Fire Route or Lane"that was long used and accessed off of Mearns Avenue
served well for the.previous owner. It can therefore easily become a street to this new subdivision.
Then, on Cotton Court or Circle, you can build new detached homes(more money for the City of
Bowmanville). As a result,the value of our home is not devalued and a minimum of 6-8 additional cars
would be accessing the street instead of the minimum of 24 cars that would result with a through street.
We would appreciate it if this letter is read at the Public Meeting on Monday September 23rd 2013.
Unfortunately, my fiancee and I will not be able to attend as we will be at work at that time.
Thank you,
Michael Loscavo &Sarah Chippior
