2. BACKGROUND
2.1 On December 20, 2013, Staff received applications to amend the Clarington Official
Plan and Zoning By-law 84-63 along with an application requesting approval of a Draft
Plan of Subdivision for the development of 82 single detached dwellings.
2.2 The subject lands were previously approved as Public Elementary School and Separate
Elementary School sites within Draft Plan of Subdivisions 18T-89037 and 18T-95023.
Both the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board and the Peterborough Victoria
Northumberland Catholic District School Board had determined that the lands would not
be needed to accommodate students within this area of Courtice.
2.3 On March 26, 2014 a revised Draft Plan of Subdivision (Attachment 1) was received to
address comments provided at the Public Meeting and by departments and agencies.
The revised plan reduces the number of lots from 82 to 80; increases the park block
adjacent to Rosswell Park from 0.07 ha to 0.15 ha; and adds a walkway block to
connect bike/pedestrian pathways in Rosswell Park to the Stormwater Management
Pond to the south of the proposed development, consistent with Map `A' Land Use of
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 5
the South-West Courtice Secondary Plan. This will also provide a connection to
Fenning Drive.
2.4 The applicant proposes to grade on external lands at the south east end of the
proposed development. On May 7, 2014, the owner of those lands provided the
applicant with permission to grade.
2.5 The applicant has submitted a Planning Justification Report, Geotechnical Report,
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment and a Functional Servicing Report in support of
the subject applications.
3. LAND CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING USES
3.1 The subject site is currently vacant. A large amount of topsoil was stockpiled on site
from development of earlier phases of the subdivisions. The topsoil has been removed
over recent months.
3.2 The surrounding uses are as follows:
North - Residential
South - Residential and a Stormwater Management Pond
East - Rosswell Park and Residential
West - Residential

4. PROVINCIAL POLICY
4.1 Provincial Policy Statement
4.1.1 The Provincial Policy Statement encourages planning authorities to create healthy
liveable and safe communities by accommodating an appropriate range and mix of
residential; employment; recreation, park and open space; and other uses to meet long
term needs.
4.1.2 Policy related to Settlement Areas, states that new development shall occur adjacent to
built up areas and shall have compact form, a mix of uses and densities that allow for
the efficient use of land, infrastructure and public services. Development should support
active transportation and transit.
4.1.3 The Housing Policies state that Planning authorities are required to provide for a range
of housing types and densities with a ten year supply of lands which are designated.
New housing is to be directed to locations where infrastructure and public services are
or will be available. A full range and mix of housing types and densities shall be
provided to meet projected requirements of current and future residents of the regional
market area.
4.1.4 The Public Spaces, Recreation, Parks, Trails and Open Space policies encourage
healthy, active communities through the promotion of planning safe streets that meet
the needs of pedestrians, foster social interaction and facilitate active transportation and
community connectivity. A full range of built and natural settings for recreation
including parks, open space areas, trails and linkages are to be provided.
4.1.5 Infrastructure and public service facilities shall be provided in a coordinated, efficient
and cost effective manner that considers impacts from climate change while
accommodating projected needs. Planning for these shall be integrated with land use
planning so that they are financially viable over their life cycle, which may be
demonstrated through asset management planning; and available to meet current and
projected needs.
4.1.6 The proposal is consistent with the 2014 Provincial Policy Statement as it provides for
residential intensification within the settlement area on lands both the Public and
Separate School Boards determined were not necessary to accommodate students
within this area of Courtice. The proposal will accommodate low density residential
units in a neighbourhood that is planned to accommodate a mix of densities. The
proposal will make use of existing sanitary and water services and is in close proximity
to a Durham Region Transit Route, Rosswell Park, and the South Courtice Arena. The
proposal will also provide active transportation connections to existing pathways through
Rosswell Park and to the stormwater management pond to the south for connections to
Fenning Drive and a future pathway through the Robinson Creek Valley lands
connecting to Prestonvale Road.
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 7
4.2 Provincial Growth Plan
4.2.1 The Provincial Growth Plan encourages municipalities to manage growth by directing
population growth to settlement areas. Municipalities are encouraged to create
complete communities that offer a mix of land uses, employment and housing options,
high quality open space, and access to stores and services.
Growth is to be accommodated in transit-supportive communities to reduce dependence
on the automobile through the development of mixed use, pedestrian-friendly
environments. Growth shall also be directed to areas that offer municipal water and
wastewater systems. Municipalities should establish an urban open space system within
built up areas.
The subject lands are within the 'built-up' area. By 2015, a minimum of 40% of new
development is intended to be directed to the built up area annually, measured across
the Region of Durham.
4.2.2 The proposal provides additional housing within the existing settlement area and
contributes additional parkland for Rosswell Park, as well as pedestrian connections
through the park and to future open space trail connections. Therefore, the proposed
applications meet the objectives of the Provincial Growth Plan
5. OFFICIAL PLANS
5.1 Durham Regional Official Plan
The Durham Region Official Plan designates the subject lands as Living Areas which
shall be used predominantly for housing purposes that provide a range of housing
types, sizes and tenures to satisfy the diverse housing needs of the community. The
proposed subdivision is permitted in the Living Areas designation.
5.2 Clarington Official Plan
The Clarington Official Plan designates the subject lands as Urban Residential Area
subject to a Public Elementary School and a Separate Elementary School symbol. The
lands are within the South-West Courtice Secondary Plan which also identifies the site
of a Public Elementary and Separate Elementary School.
The lands are within the Bayview Neighbourhood, which has a population allocation of
4500 and a housing unit target of 1625, including 1150 low density units. The applicant
is requesting to amend the land use schedules to delete the Public Elementary and
Separate Elementary School symbols and retain only the urban residential area
designation and to increase the population allocation to 4750, and increase the low
density units to 1250.
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 8
The goals of the South-West Courtice Secondary Plan are to provide a residential living
environment that promotes a desirable quality of life and social interaction; and to
provide a broad range of housing to meet evolving needs of current and future
residents.
Southfield Drive and Fenning Drive are both designated as collector roads which serve
to funnel traffic from the subdivision and park out to Bloor Street, Townline Road, and
Prestonvale Road all of which are designated as arterial roads.
The Residential Neighbourhood policies encourage a Grid Street design which provides
multiple routes and connections to neighbourhood facilities by walking, cycling and
driving. The Transportation policies state further that the grid system may be modified
only where there are physical constraints and that cul-de-sacs are generally not
permitted.
The Growth Management policies require new development in established
neighbourhoods to be designed to respect and reinforce the physical character
having regard to the pattern of lots, streets and blocks, the size and configuration of
lots, building types of nearby properties, the height and scale of buildings and the
setback of buildings from the street, rear and side yards.
To become a more sustainable community, the Growth Management policies look to
minimizing the consumption of energy and resources to lessen the impacts of residents
on the natural environment. The Municipality will promote energy efficiency and
conservation in new development. This can be achieved in part, by implementing green
development standards incorporating energy efficiency, water conservation, enhanced
indoor air quality, use of non-toxic and recycled content building products, renewable
energy sources, green roofs, landscaping and tree planting programs and low energy
appliances.
The proposal is consistent with the policies of the Clarington Official Plan.
6. ZONING BY-LAW
6.1 Zoning By-law 84-63 zones the subject lands Urban Residential Exception (R1-42)
which only permits a public school as defined in the by-law. A Zoning By-law
amendment will be required in order to implement the proposed amendment to draft
approval.
7. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND STUDIES
7.1 The Planning Justification Report states that the proposed low density development is a
compatible addition to the existing neighbourhood as it is predominately low-density,
single detached.
The existing municipal infrastructure, which includes an adjacent neighbourhood park
and stormwater management pond, will be utilized by the residential development.
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 9
Townline Road is a Type B Arterial Road designed to handle high traffic volumes and
will provide efficient access to the future residential use. Traffic from the development is
not expected to have any significant impact on the adjacent road infrastructure. Bus
transit and a future GO Train station are located close by.
It is noted that the subject site is well suited for the development of an infill low-density
residential project. It generally complies with Residential Density Standards set out in
Table 9-1 of the Clarington Official Plan. The proposed density is within the 10-30 unit
per net hectare range for the low density category. The location is consistent with the
general location criteria internal to neighbourhoods.
7.2 The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, prepared by Geo-Logic Inc. concluded
that there are no potential environmental concerns with the subject lands.
8. PUBLIC SUBMISSIONS
8.1 A Public Meeting was held on February 24, 2014. Public Notice was given by mail to
each landowner within 120 metres of the subject property and a public meeting notice
was installed on the property in the centre of each street frontage.
8.2 As of the writing of the report, and during the Public Meeting, the following concerns
were identified:
• Overcrowding of Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School.
• Potential increase in traffic in the neighbourhood. It was noted that Bloor Street
backs up at Harmony Road.
• Speeding on Southfield Avenue and Bingham Gate to Townline Road.
• Request for the installation of all way stops at the intersection of Rosswell Drive
and Southfield Avenue.
• Preference for homes fronting Southfield Avenue with no additional street
accesses.
• Requests for a pathway for residents to access the park and Fenning Drive.
9. AGENCY COMMENTS
9.1 The Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority, Canada Post, Enbridge, Rogers
Cable Communications Inc. and Bell Canada, have no objections to the proposal.
Requested conditions have been added to the Conditions of Draft Approval (Attachment
5).
9.2 The Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board advised that the proposed subdivision
would generate 21 elementary students and up to 9 secondary students. Students
would attend Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School (JK to Grade 6), Courtice Intermediate
School (Grades 7 and 8) and Courtice Secondary School (Grades 9 to 12).
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 10
The school board requires public sidewalks for all proposed streets to facilitate
pedestrian access to Dr. G.J. MacGillivray Public School.
9.3 The Region of Durham Planning and Economic Development Department advised that
the subject lands had previously been screened for delegated Provincial Plan Review
responsibilities, as part of the related subdivision approval process.
The Phase One Environmental Site Assessment, prepared by Geo-Logic Inc., dated
August 2013, reported that there is no further site contamination on the subject lands,
and no further site investigation is required. The Region has reviewed the reliance letter
and proof of insurance submitted by the applicant and is satisfied that the site
contamination requirements have been met.
Municipal water supply is available to service the proposed development from an
existing 300 mm watermain on Fenning Drive and from an existing 300 mm watermain
on Southfield Avenue. All internal watermains are to be designed to provide maximum
day flows plus fire protection. The existing services that are no longer required must be
removed at the Developer's expense.
Municipal sanitary sewers are available to the proposed development from the existing
sanitary sewer on Fenning Drive. The existing sanitary sewer is very shallow; therefore
the engineering drawings must show the minimum basement elevations.
The proposed amendment conforms to the Regional Official Plan and is exempt from
Regional approval.
The Region has no objection to the approval of the proposed draft plan of subdivision
and provided conditions to be fulfilled prior to clearance by the Region for the
registration of the plan.
10. DEPARTMENTAL COMMENTS
10.1 Engineering Services
Clarington Engineering Services have reviewed the revised plan and advised that all
previous comments have been addressed and they have no objection to the
applications being approved subject to conditions.
11. DISCUSSION
11.1 Through a detailed review it was determined that the appropriate parkland dedication for
these lands has been provided through the previously approved plans of subdivision
(18T-89037 and 18T-95023). However, 2001544 Ontario Limited has other lands within
the Bayview Neigbourhood that will require development approvals and subsequent
parkland dedication. Staff met with the applicant and came to an agreement that the
applicant will contribute additional parklands through this proposal to increase the ,
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 11
frontage of Roswell Park along proposed Street A. The parkland dedication provided
through this development will be deducted from the required cash-in-lieu of parkland
dedication to be provided for the future development of the southeast corner of
Townline Road and Bloor Street. The applicant also agreed to provide bike/pedestrian
connections from Rosswell Park to Street A and through the Stormwater Management
Pond lands to the south. The addition of the bike/pedestrian connections was done in
part to address concerns raised at the Public Meeting regarding the loss of the informal
pathway currently bisecting the applicant's lands by residents to access Rosswell Park.
11.2 Through correspondence and discussions with residents, increase in traffic and
speeding through the neighbourhood were identified as the primary concerns. This was
also expressed during the Public Meeting. Engineering staff have scheduled
undertaking traffic counts this spring to determine if traffic volumes warrant the
installation of all way stops at the intersections of Southfield Avenue and Rosswell
Drive, and Southfield Avenue and Fenning Drive. The Durham Regional Police have
been requested to watch speeds in the neighbourhood and speed display boards are
planned for the area. Staff also discussed the Road Watch program with residents.
11.3 Staff have passed along concerns regarding the overcrowding of Dr. G.J. MacGillivray
Public School to the School Board as part of this application and through the review of
other development applications within the Southwest Courtice area.
In September 2013 the School Board implemented program changes at the school
which includes relocating grade 7 and 8 students to Courtice Secondary School.
Although this reduced the number of students at the school, it still requires portables.
On April 22, 2014, a site plan amendment application was approved for Dr. G.J.
MacGillivray, permitting a 504m2 addition consisting of 8 additional classrooms, bringing
the total number of classrooms from 27 to 35. The School Board expects to occupy the
addition in 2015. As part of site plan amendment, there will be a dedicated bus lane
added to the site which is intended to improve traffic flow in and around the school at
pick-up and drop-off times.
11.4 During the Public Meeting and through correspondence, residents expressed a
preference for homes fronting Southfield Avenue with no additional street accesses to
Southfield Drive. The resident's suggested that this would alleviate traffic on Southfield.
However, this would just displace all traffic travelling to and from the site onto Fenning
Drive. The addition of a window street would be in contradiction with the residential
neighbourhood and transportation policies of the Official Plan which encourages a grid
street design and discourages cul-de-sacs. The grid street design provides multiple
efficient connections to neighbourhood facilities by walking, cycling and driving.
11.5 The applicant has provided concurrence with the attached Conditions of Draft Approval.
11.6 All taxes payable to the Municipality of Clarington have been paid in full.
12. CONCURRENCE — Not Applicable
REPORT NO.: PSD-033-14 PAGE 12
13. CONCLUSION
13.1 In consideration of the findings of all supporting studies, comments received from
circulated agencies and area residents, and based on review of the proposal, staff
recommends that the proposed Clarington Official Plan Amendment (Attachment 2),
Zoning By- law (Attachment 4) be approved and Conditions of Draft Approval
(Attachment 5) be supported.
