PD-162-91 PAGE 2 2 . BACKGROUND 2 . 1 In January of 1991 the Planning and Development Department received an application submitted by Kennedy Youth Services Inc . to amend the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 in order to permit the development of a Youth Detention Facility. 2 .2 In February of 1991 the Planning and Development Department was advised by the Region of Durham of an application to amend the Durham Regional Official Plan in order to permit the aforementioned development. However, the Regional Planning Department determined that the information submitted with the application was incomplete and did not proceed with the circulation process . The additional information was provided by the applicant in June of 1991 and the circulation process proceeded shortly thereafter. 2 . 3 The subject property is a rectangular shaped parcel, 20 . 078 hectares (49 . 6 acres) in size and is located approximately 200 metres (656 feet) east of Rundle Road and 1 kilometre ( . 62 miles) north of Nash Road but is more formally described as Part Lot 22, Concession 3, in the former Township of Darlington. 3 . PUBLIC NOTICE AND SUBMISSIONS 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 121. 92 metres (400 feet) of the subject property as required by the Planning Act. 3 .2 As a result .of the public notification process the Planning and Development Department has received numerous telephone and counter inquiries at which time concerns were expressed regarding the nature of the application, the security of the building and number of persons to be housed. In addition, the Planning and 3 ' 10 . . . . REPORT NO. PD-162-91 PAGE 3 Development Department has received two letters of objection from .area residents who objected to the applications on environmental, social and economic grounds . 4 . OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY 4 . 1 Within both the existing Durham Regional Official Plan and the recommended plan, the subject property is designated as Major Open Space with an indication of Environmentally Sensitive Area and Hazard Lands. 4 .2 Section 12 .2 . 2 of the existing Regional Official Plan states that the predominant use of lands so designated shall be for agricultural and farm related uses and other similar uses such as reforestation, cemeteries, allotment gardens, nursery gardening, golf courses, camp grounds, riding and boarding stables, dog kennels, mink farms and fair grounds . 4 . 3 As the applicant is proposing to develop the subject property with a Youth Detention Facility, the applicant has applied to appropriately amend the Durham Regional Official Plan. 5 . ZONING BY-LAW COMPLIANCE 5 . 1 Within the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63, the subject property is zoned in part Agricultural (A) and in part Environmental Protection (EP) . The current zone categories do not permit the development of the subject property as proposed and the applicant has therefore applied to amend the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 . 6 . AGENCY COMMENTS 6 . 1 The application for Official Plan Amendment was circulated to various agencies by the Durham Regional Planning Department. Concurrently, the Town of Newcastle Planning and Development f? 4 .� . . . . L REPORT NO. PD-162-91 PAGE 4 undertook a circulation of the proposed zoning by-law amendment. However, as the applications were only recently circulated, the Planning and Development Department has not as yet received any agency comments . 7 . STAFF COIMNTS 7 . 1 The applicant is seeking approval to amend both the Durham Regional Official Plan and the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law in order to permit the development of a Youth Detention Facility. 7 .2 Staff note that the Durham Regional Official Plan indicates that a substantial portion of the subject property is an Environmentally Sensitive Area. In addition, this sensitivity is reflected in the Town of Newcastle Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 which zones a substantial portion of the subject property as Environmental Protection (EP) . Therefore, prior to the final consideration of the application, the Planning and Development Department will require the applicant to submit a detailed environmental impact report for review and approval by the Town, the Ministry.of Natural Resources and the local Conservation Authority. Nevertheless, the Planning and Development Department will continue to process the application in the usual manner pending the receipt of all outstanding comments . 7 . 3 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 and the preparation of a subsequent report.
