The applicant noted that the wished to discuss two of the subdivision draft approval conditions and an aspect of the rezoning with staff. 2.0 DISCUSSION 2.1 On November 23, 2004, the Director of Planning Services met with Mr. Mario Veltri. The applicant stated his primary concem was with respect to the proposed zoning for the nitrate dilution area. The nitrate dilution area (Block 41) is comprised of a woodlot and an open field (see Attachment 2). He did not want all development excluded from the open field portion of the nitrate dilution area and proposed to have either an RH-18 Zone (residential on full urban services) or retain the "Agricultural (A)" zoning on the same area. The RH-18 zone is inappropriate as municipal sanitary sewer services will never be extended to Newtonville under Regional Official Plan or Provincial Greenbelt Plan. The Director recommended the permitted uses for the nitrate area be restricted to those that did not have the potential to impact the area's nitrate dilution function. The applicant was advised that if there were any uses that the Durham Regional Health Unit would permit in this location these would be considered. 2.2 The applicant's engineer, Semas Associates, faxed a letter to staff on November 26, 2004, stating the nitrate dilution area should remain zoned "Agricultural (A)" with a limitation of restricting a residence on the residential property. Staff considered most of these A zone uses to have a potential impact on the nitrate dilution function. Crop farming with its fertilizers, livestock farming with its manures, riding and boarding stables with their manure were considered inappropriate for the nitrate dilution area. A wayside pit is not appropriate for a hamlet residential area. A seasonal farm produce sales outlet would require public road access, which is not available. Forestry is another use mentioned and staff considers that use to be appropriate for the portion of the nitrate dilution area that is currently an open field. 2.3 Staff telephoned the Regional Health Department on December 1, 2004, and received verbal confirmation from Health Department staff that forestry use without buildings is appropriate for the open field portion of the nitrate dilution area. Furthermore, it was confirmed that limitation of uses through zoning rather than a condition of draft approval is appropriate. Staff notes that the few uses permitted in the previously proposed "Environmental Protection Exception (EP-9r plus forestry is reflected in the "Environmental Protection Exception (EP-7) Zone" and therefore, recommends the open field portion of the nitrate dilution area be zoned as such. The zoning by-law amendment has been modified accordingly and is attached to this addendum as Attachment 3. L.luJ . ' REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM TO PSD-138-04 PAGE 4 3.0 CONCLUSION 3.1 In consideration of the comments contained in this report, staff respectfully confirms the recommendations made in PSD-138-04 with the exception of the zoning by-law amendment which has been modified as attached and the modified version is recommended.

The legal description is Part Lot 7, Concession 1, former Township of Clarke. 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 On November 29, 2002, the Planning Services Department received the last of the revision documents required to circulate the revised proposed plan of subdivision and related zoning by-law amendment application. The subdivision application proposes to create 39 lots for single-family detached dwellings, a storm water management block, a block reserved by the owner and local roads. 2.2 A public meeting for the proposed plan of subdivision and rezoning was held on January 6, 2003. Three neighbours spoke with concem for aspects of the subdivision proposal. 2.3 One neighbour was the organizer of a petition that was signed by eight households from Jones Avenue to oppose the proposal due to pre-maturity regarding lack of community services. To the signers it appeared Jones Avenue would be the sole access to the entire subdivision placing an inappropriately large traffic burden on this street and imperilling emergency access. They foresaw approximately 80 vehicles per day using the street from the proposed subdivision. They said this figure would increase when the developer started building on Block 41 and that the Veltri lands plus the Quadrillium lands could generate as much as 250 vehicles per day travelling on Jones Avenue. It was noted these vehicles would be generally travelling past Newtonville Public Elementary School making the traffic situation at the school much worse. A second access was suggested using either the road allowance extending north to Paynes Crescent or a westerly extension to Street "B" to connect to Newtonville Road. ti10 1 ;} (j " REPORT NO.: PSD-138-04 PAGE 4 They stated septic systems for all of the above-mentioned houses would, in total, be an environmental nightmare. They suggested this housing was on the "Ganaraska Forest Watershed". Concern was expressed as to what the storm water runoff "would do" to Highway 401 and lands and wells to the south. They argued more houses in the area will necessitate more policing and taxes to pay for it, and specifically, additional youth from the new housing would generate a further policing problem given the area's relative lack of transit and-recreational opportunities. 2.4 The other two neighbours agreed with the petitioners and one claimed approval of the proposal would double Newtonville's population. 2.5 No one spoke in support of the applications. The agent for the owners, G.M. Semas & Associates, noted that the lands are designated residential and that a detailed hydrogeological analysis has been undertaken. Half-acre lots will be in the northem and western portions of the site and the owner is willing to use the unopened road allowance between Part Lots 6 and 7. 3.0 LAND CHARACTERISTICS AND SURROUNDING USES 3.1 The topography of this now vacant property is relatively flat, with a gentle incline toward the southeast where the Bouchette Point Creek and its valleylands are situated. The property is almost completely within the Lake Iroquois Beach/Shoreline. A little over half the site - its east-central and southem portions (Block 41, reserved by the owner and the subdivision's nitrate dilution area) are generally covered with tableland woodlot. The subdivision's 39 dwellings are proposed for the northem portion of the property. 3.2 The surrounding land uses are as follows: North: South: East: West: Hamlet Residential with frontage on Paynes Crescent Highway 401 Valleylands, Tableland Woodlot and Meadowlands 28 unit Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision on Valleylands, Tableland Woodlot and Meadowlands 4.0 OFFICIAL PLAN CONFORMITY 4.1 The Durham Regional Official Plan designates the property Hamlet. In Policy 13.3.5, new municipal water service to a Hamlet is intended for only the hamlet area delineated in the Area Municipal Official Plan. Municipal water service waS extended to Newtonville in 1989. The application subject to complying with the relevant portions of Policy 13.3.9 would conform to the Regional Plan. Regional staff will be providing comments on these matters. 611 l;';Ub . , , ' REPORT NO.: PSD.138-04 PAGE 5 4.2 The Clarington Official Plan designates the south em portion of the property Environmental Protection Area and the remainder Hamlet Residential. A significant valleyland runs along the southem edge of the property and a tableland woodlot is located on the north side of the valleylands. Policies within the Plan stipulate an Environmental Impact Study is to be undertaken for any development applications located within or adjacent to any natural features identified in the Plan's Natural Features and Land Characteristics Map. An Environmental Impact Study is required and it is now complete. The draft Plan of Subdivision as submitted meets the policy requirements of the Official Plan. 5.0 ZONING BY-LAW COMPLIANCE 5.1 Within Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63 of the former Town of Newcastle, the subject property is zoned in part "Agricultural (A)" and in part "Environmental Protection (EP)". The proposed development does not conform, hence, the rezoning application. 6.0 AGENCY COMMENTS 6.1 The application was circulated to various agencies and other departments. Comments and requested conditions of draft approval received to date are as follows. 6.2 The Regional Police Service and Hydro One Networks Inc. had no concerns. 6.3 The separate school board requested that adequate provision for sidewalks be made. 6.4 The public school board requested that adequate provision for sidewalks be made. Specifically, a hard surfaced walkway is requested from the westerly boundary of 18T- 89048 at Jones Avenue to the easterly limit of the existing Jones Avenue. This walkway shall stay in place until Plan 18T -87083 is developed. Maintenance of the walkway is to be provided year round at no cost to the Board. This request has been included in the Conditions of Draft Approval. 6.5 The Clarington Emergency and Fire Services Department noted that the maximum length of a dead end street without a tum-around is 90 metres. 6.6 The Engineering Services Department offered no objections to the application and provided a list of requirements which have been included in the list of Conditions of Draft Approval in Attachment 2. 6.7 The Regional Planning Department commented the subject property is in the Hamlet of Newtonville and hamlets shall be the predominant location for rural settlement. Hamlet settlement shall have a potable water supply and soil that is satisfactory for private sewage systems for each proposed lot, all in compliance with the standards of the Region and the Ministry of the Environment. The Department further noted that a 612 LHJ;; , ~ REPORT NO.: PSD-138-04 PAGE 6 hydrogeological report was provided by the owner and peer reviewed to the satisfaction of the Region. A site servicing plan and a final subdivision grading plan are to be submitted to the satisfaction of the Regional Health Department in accordance with Policy 13.3.9. The proposed plan of subdivision appears to conform to the Regional Official Plan. Regarding the Region's delegated review responsibilities for provincial interests, there may be a noise problem for the subdivision due to the proximity of Highway 401. A Noise Impact Study should be submitted to address noise from this highway, in accordance with provincial criteria and regional policy. The Region noted the preparation of the Environmental Impact Study (jointly coordinated by Clarington and the Ganaraska Conservation Authority) that examined the proposed subdivision's impact on the various environmental features and functions found in the woodlot and associated environmental protection area in the south portion of the property. Also noted was the proposed storm water management facility that was intended to mitigate impacts on the above environmental features and functions. The Region commented that the conservation authority must be satisfied in regards to the above issues. Regional water service was to be accessed from the Jones Avenue watermain and the Paynes Crescent watermain. For the latter watermain the Owner will be required to extend it south on the Lots 6 & 7 unopened road allowance to the extended Jones Avenue and then westerly to the Jones Avenue watermain including through the future development of the Plan of Subdivision on the west (18T-87083). A 6.0 metre watermain easement will be required from the existing Jones Avenue through the future development of 18T -87083. Regarding regional development charges and water supply capacity charges, through agreement with the Region, the owner has a credit for 33 housing units. With the proposed 39 unit plan, the Owner will be required to purchase 6 units of water supply capacity at $6,000 per unit, and pay development charges at current rates, for the 6 units. Regional sanitary sewer service is not available to the Hamlet of Newtonville and there are no plans to make it available. Private sanitary service is the only feasible method of servicing. The Regional Health Department has stated that the necessary geo-technical information, including a peer review from the Region'S hydro-geological consultant, confirmed that this proposed development can be serviced on the basis of private sewage disposal systems and a municipal water system. The Region has provided nine (9) conditions of draft approval, all of which are contained in Attachment 2. 6.8 The Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority has reviewed the revised plan and noted their concerns for Lots 26 to 30 and Block 40 have been met. The Authority's five (5) conditions of draft approval are included in Attachment 2. 613 1a1U " REPORT NO.: PSD-138-04 PAGE 7 6.9 The Ministry of Transportation - Ontario (MTO) noted in preliminary comments, a Ministry Permit is required for all signs visible to Highway 401. A condition of draft approval was requested and subsequently induded in Attachment 2, stating that prior to final approval, the owner was to submit to the Ministry for approval, a copy of a drainage/storm water management plan/report showing intended treatment of the calculated runoff. 6.10 Enbridge Consumers gas requested four (4) conditions be included in the list of Draft Conditions and subsequent entry in the Municipality's subdivision agreement (see Attachment 2). 6.11 Bell Canada noted that after detailed review of the plan, it was concluded that adequate telecommunication facilities exist in the area and therefore, Bell Canada does not require any easement or lease. Two conditions were requested for inclusion in the draft conditions (see Attachment 2). 6.12 Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Canada Post Corporation, the French- language public school board, the French-language separate school board and the Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee did not send any comments. 7.0 STAFF COMMENTS 7.1 The concerns raised by residents have been addressed as follows: a) Jones Avenue - Sole access to the Subdivision and overloaded with vehicular traffic. The Veltri Subdivision proposes 39 dwellings. The Quadrillium Subdivision is draft approved for 28 dwellings. Each draft plan complies with the Official Plan designation and development density for the Hamlet of Newtonville. In the short term, all access for the Veltri subdivision will be accommodated through the use of the road allowance between Lots 6 and 7. The opening of the road allowance between the existing and proposed segments of Jones Avenue will be provided for through the development of the Quadrillium Subdivision. While traffic will obviously increase, it is not significant and well within the traffic levels appropriate for a residential street. b) All the Seotic Systems would be a niahtmare in the "Ganaraska Forest Watershed". This area is not part of the Ganaraska River watershed. An Environmental Impact Study has been done for the Subdivision and the draft plan modified accordingly. A hydrogeological study, a peer review of this study, a Regional Health Department review of the peer review, and related conditions of draft approval are all designed to ensure that the septic systems will not endanger human health. 614 Ldl REPORT NO.: PSD-138-04 PAGE 8 c) ADDroilina the Veltri Subdivision would double Newtonville's DODulation. The application as submitted complies to the Official Plan designation and the Official Plan density provisions for the lots. This growth has been anticipated and should have been understood by all residents of Newtonville because it was the funding mechanism that enabled water services to be extended to existing residents. 7.2 This plan of subdivision will be constructed to a semi-urban standard due to drainage constraints which would otherwise be problematic. 7.3 The Veltri Subdivision is abutted on the west by draft-approved plan of subdivision 18T- 87083 (Quadrillium). This plan was approved in 1992 and it has 28 single detached units and a park that is bordered by the school, Regional Road 18/Newtonville Road, Jones Avenue, and Street "A" of 18T-87083. This park, when built, will provide recreational opportunities for the residents of both subdivisions. 7.4 The Environmental Impact Study determined there are no features of special significance within the area proposed for development. To the south of the development area, the existing woodlot includes upland, lowland and wetland environments and two small drainage features. Discharge and seepage areas are within the woodlot feature, which has a slope break along its northerly perimeter adjacent the development area. The woodlot habitat is in excellent condition, forming a large, contiguous block of natural vegetation and providing excellent deer habitat. It is also connected to wooded and wetland features east and west of the property and if these connections are maintained interior forest habitat conditions may be possible. The condition of the vegetation, the limited disturbance of the woodlot and the general absence of invasive species support the need to protect the woodlot. Clearly the woodlot is linked to the headwaters of Bouchette Point Creek a coldwater stream, and is protecting a discharge area to the creek. 7.5 At the time of the Study, the subdivision proposal impacted on the existing woodlot in a number of ways such as: . The proposed stormwater pond outleted into the cedars to the south, likely excessively watering them and causing them to decline; and . The above pond, Lots 26 and 27 encroached into the woodlot. 7.6 The Study concluded the proposed development could be accommodated within the environmental constraints of the site provided the environmental protection measures the proponent has agreed to are made conditions of approval, including: . Revising the conceptual stormwater management design to address not the 1994 but the 2003 version of the MOE Stormwater Management Best Management Practices Manual (now Condition 36); 615 ~_ . .~j 'J .Jo. . ~ -"_ (.of REPORT NO.: PSD.138-04 PAGE 9 . Providing storm water infiltration within the pond and in the swales that convey runoff to the pond thereby generating protection from: ~ Downstream erosion, increased stream water temperatures that harm coldwater fish, decreased base flows in Bouchette Point Creek and decreased water table elevations (now Condition 37); . Adhering to 39 lots as the maximum number for the site as evidenced by nitrate and water balance calculations (now Condition 1); . Modifying the stormwater management pond, Lots 26 and 27 to protect the woodlot (now in the plan referenced in Condition 1); and . Fencing the north edge of the woodlot across the entire width of the property, or as a minimum, the edge along the stormwater management pond and Lots 27-30 inclusive (now Condition 38). 7.7 The Applicant has verbally indicated that he does not agree with two conditions, one being a Regional Health Department condition - Condition 33. f), and specifically, the final clause in the condition that states: "... Block 41, shall become a part of the subdivision and may not be developed for any purpose." Approximately 10.85 ha (65%) of Block 41 is a woodlot. The remaining 5.84 ha (35%) is open field. Planning Staff is of the opinion that use of the nitrate dilution area, even for agricultural use, may impact the nitrate dilution function and/or diminish the residential atmosphere of the subdivision, whether by the use of crop planting, grazing cattle or a golf course /driving range. To this end, zoning that would protect the nitrate dilution function and permit enjoyment of the use of the residential lots has been adopted for Block 41 and Block 40 (stormwater management pond). The zoning is "Environmental Proteation (EP- 9)" and it permits only "conservation, bird sanctuaries, wildlife reserves or other similar uses which provide for the preservation of the natural environment, and flood and erosion control works". As well, staff will not alter a condition set down by the Regional Health Department. Staff notes Regional Health, through Regional Planning, circulated, copies of their draft conditions, including the disputed clause, in early February 2004 to the Applicant and the Applicant's consultant. 7.8 The other disputed condition, one that was drafted by Planning and Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority Staff, is Condition 38, and specifically, the second sentence in the condition which states: "Furthermore the north edge of the woodlot across the entire width of the property is to be fenced to the satisfaction of the Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority." The Applicant has expressed particular concern with fencing the woodlot across the entire width of the property and notes that the related recommendation's wording in the Environmental Impact Study is not exactly the same, that is: "the north edge of the woodlot across the entire width of the property should be fenced, or as a minimum, the edge along the stormwater management pond and Lots 27 - 30 inclusive." Planning Staff is of the opinion that access from the subdivision to the ti16 ldJ ,. ~ . . REPORT NO.: PSD-138-04 PAGE 10 woodlot needs to be minimized, the fencing requirement is consistent with the Study recommendations. Staff concur with the Ganaraska Region Conservation Authority. 7.9 The Finance Department advises that there are no taxes owing on the subject lands. 7.10 The northern and central portions of the property are designated for Hamlet Residential uses and the requisite background studies such as the Peer-reviewed Hydrogeological Study and the Environmental Impact Study have been completed and found satisfactory. The proposed plan of subdivision appropriately implements the Municipality's Official Plan policies. 8.0 CONCLUSION 8.1 Prior to scheduling a recommendation report to Committee and Council on a draft Plan of Subdivision application a list of the proposed conditions of draft approval are submitted to the Applicant for their review and concurrence with same. The Applicant had signed the letter concurring with the Conditions of Draft Approval, but as discussed, two conditions are now being challenged. 8.2 The applications have been reviewed in consideration of the comments received from area residents, the circulated agencies, the Clarington Official Plan and Zoning By-law 84-63. The owner has agreed to the conditions of draft approval as contained in Attachment 2. In consideration of the comments contained in this report, staff respectfully recommends the proposed plan of subdivision, as contained in Attachment 1, be APPROVED subject to the conditions of draft approval as contained in Attachment 2; and that the re-zonings as contained in Attachment 3 be APPROVED.
