ORIGINAL AMENDMENT NO. 26 TO THE CLARINGTON OFFICIAL PLAN PURPOSE: To allow a 9 hole golf course, club house and necessary maintenance buildings on Part Lot 3, Concession 4, former Township of Darlington, Part 1 on 40R-14585 and Part 1 on 40R-19013 BASIS: An application to amend the Official Plan to permit a golf course on lands designated "Green Space" and "Environmental Protection Area" and further described as Part 1 on 40R-14585 and Part 1 on 40R-19013 in Part Lot 3, Concession 4, Former Township of Darlington was received. An amendment to the Clarington Official Plan is necessary to allow the proposed golf course, club house and necessary maintenance buildings. A number of studies including hydrogeological, turf management and environmental impact studies were prepared in support of this application.

The studies conclude that the proposed 9 hole golf course will have no significant impacts on the natural heritage features.
