REPORT NO. PD- 134 -91 PAGE 2
consist of an irregular shaped parcel which is traversed on the
south east boundary of the property by the Harmony Creek. The
lands are generally located one lot depth south of Lawson Road,
and one lot depth east of Townline Road. Access to the site is
limited to a 20.0 metre frontage on Townline Road.
3. BACKGROUND
3.1 Report PD -95 -91 dealing with the subject application for Proposed
Draft Plan of Subdivision was presented to the General Purpose
and Administration Committee on Monday April 22, 1991. Committee
resolved to refer the report back to Staff to allow for the
concerns raised by Mr. David Brazier in his letter dated April
22, 1991 to be fully addressed and for clarification of Section
7.7 of the report. A copy of Report PD -95 -91 is attached.
3.2 Mr. Brazier presented a letter to the Committee outlining his
points of concern. Mr. Brazier was of the opinion the road
allowance proposed being 20.08 m (65.87 ft) was not of sufficient
width, and that a full 66 ft (20.117 m) was required to
accommodate a proper road allowance. The letter advised that
both Mr. Brazier's and Mr. Brown's properties front on Townline
Road and abut the proposed road allowance on the north and south
side respectively. They claim to have used the lands subject to
the proposed Plan of Subdivision for access to the rear of their
lands for a number of years and feel they should continue to
enjoy such access. Thirdly, Mr. Brazier was of the opinion that
the design of the subdivision would landlock the rear of his
property with a triangular block (block 45) to be retained by the
developer for future development.
3.3 Staff from both the Town Public Works Department and Planning
Department met with Mr. Brazier, Mr Jeffery (the applicant) and
the applicants agent following the Committee meeting. At the
meeting it was explained to Mr. Brazier that a 20.0 m road
allowance was the Town standard for local roads, therefore the
....3
REPORT NO. PD- 134 -91 PAGE 3
proposed 20.08 m road allowance is in conformity. On the
question of access to the rear of Mr. Brazier's and Mr. Brown's
properties, the applicant, the Town and Mr. Brazier agreed to
leave 6.0 m openings in the 0.3 m (1 ft) reserve. The openings
provide access to Mr. Brazier's and Mr. Brown's properties from
the proposed street. This satisfied the concern of access to the
rear of the two adjacent properties. In response to the third
concern, it was explained to Mr. Brazier that the development of
the rear of his property must be in accordance with the Town's
Comprehensive zoning By -law requirements. In order for Mr
Brazier to develop the rear portion of his lands he must meld his
lands with his neighbour to the north and block 45 of the
proposal in order to achieve appropriate lot depth and area for
the construction of dwellings.
3.4 Section 7.7 of the report, which Council requested to be further
clarified summarized the Public School Board's comments on the
proposed subdivision. The school board had advised that as a
condition of approval pedestrian access from the development to
Old Varcoe Road will be required to facilitate passage of
students. Mr Adamkovics, whose property fronts on Old Varcoe Road
and abuts the development on the south side expressed concern
regarding the request for a paved walkway and creek crossing.
3.5 The condition of approval to have the developer construct a paved
pedestrian access from the site to Old Varcoe Road, including a
creek crossing was further discussed with Public School Board
Staff following the Committee meeting. The school board staff's
concern revolved around the distance the students must walk to
get to S. T. Worden Public School via Townline Road and Nash
Road. The paved walkway and creek crossing was to provide a
shorter route to the school, therefore eliminating the need for
school busing.
3.6 Subsequent to further review, the School Board Staff has agreed
F �.r) ....4
REPORT NO. PD- 134 -91 PAGE 4
to withdraw the walkway and creek crossing condition and replace
it with a condition requiring a clause be registered on title of
all lots created through the subdivision application. The clause
to be registered on title would advise all future home buyers
that the nearest Public School is S. T. Worden and the children
will not be bused to the school.
3.7 The applicant while addressing the above concerns and undertaking
the revisions, has also increased the unit count by one unit to
39 units from the original submission of 38 units. This has been
reviewed by Staff and would comply with the 12.0 m minimum zoning
requirements which were utilized to review the balance of the
subdivision proposal.
4 CONCLUSION
4.1 In consideration of the comments contained herein and the
previous report presented to Committee April 22, 1991, Staff
recommend approval of the proposed application as submitted
subject to conditions of approval. The conditions of approval
contained in attachment No. 1 to PD -95 -91 are amended to reflect
the comments contained in this report, and are attached hereto as
attachment No. 1.

5 OFFICIAL PLAN POLICIES
5.1 Within the Durham Regional Official Plan the subject property is
designated Residential and Major Open Space with Hazard Lands. The
residential designation permits a variety of housing type, style
and tenure. The goals of the major open space policies is to
preserve and protect the unique attributes of the Region's
landscape including the valleylands. The Hazard Land policies are
primarily for the preservation and conservation of the natural land
and /or environment and shall be managed to compliment adjacent land
uses. and protect such uses from any physical hazards or their
effects. The policies further state that the extent and exact
location of such Hazard lands shall be determined in the respective
zoning by -laws in accordance with floodline and contour mapping in
consultation with the respective conservation authority. The
application appears to comply.
5.2 Within the Town of Newcastle Official Plan the subject property is
designated on Schedule 6 -1 as Residential and Major Open Space with
Hazard Lands. Schedule 6 -2 (Environmental Sensitivity) illustrates
the lands associated with the Harmony Creek as Major Open Space
System and Environmentally Sensitive Areas. The Residential
designation permits various forms of housing type style and tenure.
Neighbourhood "lA" within which the application is located permits
up to a maximum of 4300 people. The application would appear to
comply with this target.
The Major Open Space system recognizes those lands below the
topographic break in slope of the creek systems. The precise
boundaries of this system shall be delineated in the zoning by-
law. As noted within the Official Plan policies, Council shall
encourage public acquisition of and access to, for passive
recreational purposes the valley lands of the Creek systems. The
Hazard Lands policies state these lands shall be primarily for the
preservation and conservation of natural land and /or environment
and managed to compliment adjacent land uses. The development or
....4
redevelopment of such lands shall be subject to the regulations of
Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority and the Ministry of
Natural Resources and the relevant sections of the Durham Regional
Official Plan. The application would appear to comply.
5.3 In September of 1990, Town Council approved an amendment to the
Courtice West Neighbourhood Development Plan. The amendment
expanded the boundaries of the neighbourhood to include the lands
west of Varcoe Road and north of Nash Road consistent with the
Official Plan boundaries of the Courtice Urban Area. The proposal
would appear to comply.
6 ZONING
6.1 Within the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By -law the
subject lands are zoned "Agricultural (A) " and "Environmental
Protection (EP) ". The 'EP' zoning recognizes the lands associated
with the Harmony Creek system and would not permit development
thereon. The 'Agricultural' zoning would not permit the
development of a plan of subdivision as proposed. A zoning by-
law amendment is required.
7 AGENCY COMMENTS
7.1 The subject application was circulated by the Region of Durham
Planning Department to a number of commenting agencies. The Town
Planning Department in turn undertook a circulation of the
applications to the departments within the Town. The Peterborough
Victoria Northumberland and Newcastle Separate School Board
provided no objection to the application as submitted. The
following summarizes the balance of the responses received.
7.2 The Town of Newcastle Public Works Department Staff have reviewed
the application and provided the following comments. Should the
application be approved a temporary turning circle must be
constructed at the east limit of street "A". Accordingly building
permits would not be available for lots 30 and 31 until development

redevelopment of such lands shall be subject to the regulations of
Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority and the Ministry of
Natural Resources and the relevant sections of the Durham Regional
Official Plan. The application would appear to comply.
5.3 In September of 1990, Town Council approved an amendment to the
Courtice West Neighbourhood Development Plan. The amendment
expanded the boundaries of the neighbourhood to include the lands
west of Varcoe Road and north of Nash Road consistent with the
Official Plan boundaries of the Courtice Urban Area. The proposal
would appear to comply.
6 ZONING
6.1 Within the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By -law the
subject lands are zoned "Agricultural (A) " and "Environmental
Protection (EP) ". The 'EP' zoning recognizes the lands associated
with the Harmony Creek system and would not permit development
thereon. The 'Agricultural' zoning would not permit the
development of a plan of subdivision as proposed. A zoning by-
law amendment is required.

proceeds to the north. The owner is to contribute 50% of the cost
of upgrading street lighting and sidewalk construction on Townline
Road. The applicable 0.3 metre reserves are to be dedicated to the
Town. The applicant is to bear the costs (100 %) of any works on
Townline Road which are necessitated as a result of this
development and that all the standard conditions of subdivision
agreement be incorporated.
7.3 The Community Services Department advised they have no objection
to the application subject to five percent (5%) cash -in -lieu of
parkland dedication; block 48 and 49 being dedicated gratuitously;
and block 48 being paved and fenced from the street to the valley
floor.
7.4 The Fire Department has advised the subject lands fall within the
recognized response area of station # 4, Trulls Road. The
department is concerned that the Town's current fire standards may
not be adequate, given the continuous trend of rapid urbanization.
However, new development will generate lot levies to assist the
Town to improve its fire protection service, therefore the Fire
Department has no objection.
7.5 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority Staff have reviewed
the application and advise as follows. The site is traversed by
the Harmony Creek and its valley system occupies the southern
portion of the plan. Author -Ity Staff have concerns for potential
erosion /stability problems along the valley wall, which could
affect the proposed abutting tableland lots. Central Lake Ontario
Conservation Authority Staff further advised that restoration of
the 'normal' stream channel or selective erosion protection may be
necessary to ensure the future stability of the valley wall. Block
48 (walkway) encourages pedestrian access to the valley, some form
of erosion protection would be appropriate from this access point
at the top -of -bank, over the slope to the valley floor.
r -7 1 ....6
REPORT NO. PD -95 -91 PAGE 6
7.6 The Ministry of Natural Resources have advised that they have no
objection to the development although they do have resource
concerns. The Harmony Creek, which forms the south eastern
boundary of 'the subject site flows into the Oshawa Second Marsh,
which is considered to be provincially significant. The Ministry
is concerned that unless proper stormwater management techniques
and erosion control measures are employed on site, negative impacts
on the marsh and its fish and wildlife habitat could result. The
Ministry Staff have therefore recommended various conditions to be
fulfilled prior to registration with regards to on -site drainage
and grading, as well as on site preparation prior to any works
being undertaken.
7.7 The Public School Board's review of the application advised some
concerns were raised. The proposal will generate approximately 12
students at S.T. Worden Public School. The School Board has
advised that as condition of approval pedestrian access from the
development to Varcoe Road will be required to facilitate passage
of students. Staff have reviewed this issue at some length and
will require a pedestrian creek crossing and walkway connecting the
subdivision to Varcoe Road.
7.8 The Regional Public Works Department has reviewed the application
and advised municipal water supply and sanitary sewer services can
be provided to the subject lands by way of extensions of existing
services from Townline and Varcoe Road. The applicant will be
responsible for the necessary easement. The proposed access to
Townline Road is considered acceptable as long as the location
conforms to Regional Road and Entranceway Policy. In consideration
of the future Adelaide Avenue extension and resulting Lawson Road
closure at Townline the proposed access is considered the only
viable entrance for the proposal.
7.9 The City of Oshawa Planning Department forwarded a copy of their
report to Planning and Development Committee. The report
....7
REPORT NO. PD -95 -91 PAGE 7
recommended no objection to the application subject to being
advised of plans for reconstruction or alteration of storm drainage
facilities on Townline Road North necessitated by this development.
8 STAFF CObMNTS
9.1 The application is proposing to create 38 single family dwelling
lots on lands bounded by Townline Road to the west, Lawson Road to
the north and a branch of the Harmony Creek valley on the south.
The lands are currently zoned "Agricultural (A) " and "Environmental
Protection (EP)". The Environmental Protection zone would appear
to generally relate to the top -of -bank of the proposal and
therefore is not subject to rezoning. The tablelands currently
zoned "A" will require a zoning by -law amendment prior to
development taking place. All the lots proposed provide a minimum
13.0 m (42 ft) frontage .
8.2 As noted in the report the subject proposal includes lands
associated with the Harmony Creek. The applicant has proposed
placing all the lands below top -of -bank in a separate block to be
dedicated to the Town. Prior to dedicating said block to the Town,
the applicant /owner will be required to undertake work associated
with the creek to the satisfaction of Central Lake Ontario
Conservation Authority.
8.3 The applicant has proposed a road pattern in keeping with the
approved neighbourhood plan. The design would allow for the future
development of the rear yards of lots fronting on Lawson Road. In
