5 PUBLIC MEETING AND RESPONSE
5. 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.
As of the writing of this report, no written submissions have been
received, although counter enquiries have been received.
6 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES
6 . 1 Within the Durham Regional Official Plan the subject property is
designated "Residential" . The residential policies encourage
development with a variety of housing mix and type. The
application appears to conform.
6 .2 Within the Town of Newcastle Official Plan, Bowmanville Major Urban
Area the subject property is located in Neighbourhood 112C" and is
designated "Low Density Residential" . Said neighbourhood has a
population target of 5500 people. In addition, there is a park,
school symbol and collector road within proximity of the subject
lands . The applicant is proposing an over dedication of parkland.
6 . 3 The low density residential designation permits a maximum
development of 30 units per net residential hectare. The
application as submitted proposes 56 townhouse units which would
have a density in excess of 30 units per net Ha. The applicant has
submitted an Official Plan Amendment as a result of the density
issue. The collector road which affects the subdivision lay out
has a fixed point on the west side of Liberty Street, through Draft
Approved and partially registered plan of subdivision ( 18T-82037) .
Through the Durham Regional Review process, the status of this road
is proposed to be revised to a 'minor arterial' . In light of this
proposal Staff have requested the applicant to amend the plan to
reflect the upgraded road standard. This would include no direct
access from individual lots .

was circulated to a number of agencies and departments for comment.
Todate comments remain outstanding from the following
agencies/departments: Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority,
the Public School Board, the Separate School Board, Regional Public
Works, the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Ministry of the
Environment.
7 .2 The Town of Newcastle Public Works Department has advised that they
have no objection in principle, but would recommend that it not
proceed until such time as the Draft Plan is revised to provide
direct access to Regional Road 14, at a minor arterial road status
(26m) . The alignment of said road is fixed on the west side of
Liberty Street due to previous approvals. In addition, the Works
Department has requested that the following issues/concerns be
addressed. That the applicant provide a Master Drainage and Lot
Grading Plan to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works,
that various lots be held from receiving building permits until
such time as the temporary turning circles are no longer required,
and that the applicant be subject to the standard conditions of
approval with respect to services and the subdivision agreement.
7 .3 The Community Services Department advised they have no objection
to the application as filed subject to Block 184 being accepted as
the park block, the applicant enters into a cost sharing agreement
with abutting land owners regarding the development of the park
site and the park being completed in its entirety prior to
receiving 25% of the building permits from the land owners
contributing towards the park site.
7 .4 The Fire Department has advised that this application in
conjunction with others in the area, will put a strain on the
existing services supplied by Station #1 Bowmanville. However, it
is hoped that a second station will be constructed in time to meet
the development needs . Therefore the Department has no objection.

7 .5 Ontario Hydro has provided comments on the subject applications
advising they have no objection to the proposed lay out as
submitted, however, will require conditions with respect to Hydro
services be included in the conditions of the approval. Newcastle

8 STAFF COHMENTS
8. 1 The applicant has filed applications for Official Plan Amendment,
Zoning By-law Amendment and Proposed Plan of Subdivision in order
to develop 96 single family dwelling units, 67 semi-detached/link
lots ( 134 dwelling units) and 55 on-street townhouse units. The
Official Plan Amendment application relates to the density
provisions as it relates to the proposed townhouse units.
8 .2 Staff have reviewed the proposed applications with the applicant
and have identified concerns with the proposed design of the
subdivision. These concerns stem from the proposed changes to the
status of the collector road as identified through the Durham
Regional Official Plan Review. The revisions contemplated will
introduce service type roads abutting the proposed arterial and
eliminate a number of the cul-de-sacs now proposed. When the
revisions are submitted Staff will undertake a recirculation of the
applications .
9 CONCLUSION
9 . 1 The purpose of this report is to facilitate the Public meeting as
required by the Planning Act, to provide Committee and Council with
some background on the application submitted and for Staff to
indicate areas of concern regarding the subject application. In
consideration of the above-noted comments it is recommended that
the applications be referred back to Staff for further processing
and subsequent recirculation and report if necessary.
