Report Overview
A 23 unit draft plan of subdivision in Bowmanville is recommended for approval. This
greenfield development proposal by Zemer Developments contains predominantly street
townhouses and 4 semi-detached units along the future extension of Cotton Street. A total of
4.3 ha of Soper Creek valleylands and non-developable lands will be dedicated to the
Municipality. The plan of subdivision will implement the Official Plan, will provide for the logical
extension of existing development to the south, and will assist Durham and Clarington in
achieving population and housing targets.

9. A public meeting was held on September 23, 2013 for the purposes of seeking input on
the subject applications. No one spoke to the applications at the public meeting however
staff are in receipt of one written letter of objection and several residents have spoken to
staff with concerns about the applications.
10. Since the original submission, the draft plan of subdivision has been revised as follows:
• Revised location of Street 'A' to increase setback to Soper Creek tributary
• Reduced width of Street 'A' from 20 metres to 18 metres to reduce encroachment
into buffer to Soper Creek tributary
• Adjusted limits of draft plan of subdivision to include "Other Lands Owned By
Applicant" as "Open Space" to be dedicated to the Municipality of Clarington
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 4
• Adjusted unit mix along the east side of Cotton Street extension from a block of five
street townhouse units to two semi-detached lots (four units) to be consistent with
the existing units on Cotton street
11. The subject applications would allow for the lands to the south on Cotton Street to be
developed. The adjacent rezoning application ZBA 2014-0014 proposes to rezone lands
to accommodate 8 units versus the approved 6 units along Cotton Street in the current
location of the temporary cul-de-sac. The application is summarized in recommendation
report PSD-048-14. The lots to be rezoned by the application ZBA 2014-0014 are frozen
until Cotton Street is extended upon development of the lands subject to this report.
12. The applicant submitted the following studies in support of the application and are
summarized in this report:
• Planning Justification Report;
• Environmental Impact Statement;
• Conceptual Stormwater Drainage and Servicing Report;
• Environmental Noise & Vibration Feasibility Study;
• Traffic Impact Study;
• Archaeological Background Study;
• Energy Efficiency and Sustainability Plan;
• Environmental Screening Assessment;
• Soper Creek Tributary Floodplain Report;
• Meander Belt Width Assessment; and
• Geotechnical Investigation Report.
Land Characteristics and Surrounding Uses
13. A single detached dwelling and an accessory building are located on the subject lands
with access via Cotton Street. The lands are otherwise vacant and have been used for
agricultural purposes. The main branch of the Soper Creek and a tributary cross the site
(see Figure 2).
14. The surrounding uses are as follows:
North - Soper Creek tributary, CP Railway, stormwater management pond
South - Existing residential development (townhouse, semi/links, single detached
dwellings)
East - Soper Creek and valley system
West - Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision 18T-95030

Report PSD-047-14 Page 6
18. Natural features and areas shall be protected for the long term. Development shall not be
permitted in, or adjacent to, significant woodlands and valleylands unless it has been
demonstrated that there will be no negative impacts.
19. The applications are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement.
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
20. The Growth Plan requires municipalities to manage growth, and encourages the creation
of complete communities that offer a mix of land uses, employment and housing options,
high quality open space, and access to stores and services. Natural heritage features
that complement, link or enhance natural systems shall be identified and protected.
21. The subject lands are within the greenfield area, and outside of the built-up area. In
greenfield areas, growth is to make efficient use of services and infrastructure and be
compact and transit-supportive. Reducing dependence on the automobile through the
development of mixed use, pedestrian-friendly environments contributes to achieving
complete communities.
22. The Growth Plan requires municipalities to achieve a minimum density target that is not
less than 50 residents or jobs per hectare in the designated greenfield area and is
measured across the Region of Durham. The subject development would generate
approximately 55 residents per hectare.
23. The applications conform to the objectives of the Growth Plan.
Official Plans
Durham Regional Official Plan
24. The Durham Regional Official Plan designates the subject lands as Living Area, with an
indication of Key Natural Heritage and Hydrologic Features. Lands designated as Living
Area permit the development of communities with defined boundaries, incorporating the
widest possible variety of housing types, sizes and tenure. The natural environment,
including Key Natural Heritage and Hydrologic Features, shall be given paramount
consideration in light of their ecological functions and scientific, educational and health
values.
25. Mearns Avenue is identified as a Type C Arterial Road.
26. The subject applications conform to the Durham Regional Official Plan.

15. Settlement areas shall be the focus of growth. Land use patterns shall be based on
densities and a mix of land uses which efficiently use land, resources and infrastructure
and other public services. A full range of housing types and densities are to be provided
to meet the projected requirements of current and future residents of the regional market
area.
16. The PPS encourages a compact built form which supports the development of
transportation systems that minimize the length and number of vehicle trips and also
supports the development of viable choices and plans for public transit. Compact built
form minimizes negative impact to air quality and climate change and promotes energy
efficiency.
17. Healthy, active communities should be promoted by planning public streets, spaces and
facilities to be safe, meet the needs of pedestrians, foster social interaction and facilitate
active transportation and community connectivity.
Municipality of Clarington

Clarington Official Plan
27. Within the Clarington Official Plan, the subject lands are designated Urban Residential
and Environmental Protection Area. The lands are within the Apple Blossom
Neighbourhood which has a current population allocation of 4,750 and a housing unit
target of 1650.
28. The subject lands are within 120 metres of natural heritage features including a
watercourse and significant valleyland. An Environmental Impact Study is required to
assess any development proposals within 120 metres of a natural heritage feature and to
define the development limit.
29. Mearns Avenue is a Type C Arterial Road and Cotton Street is a local road.
30. The subject applications conform to the Clarington Official Plan.
Zoning By-law
31. Zoning By-law 84-63 zones the subject lands Agricultural (A) Zone. A rezoning
application is required to place the lands in appropriate zones to permit the development
as shown on the proposed draft plan of subdivision.
Summary of Background Studies
Planning Justification Report prepared by Michael Smith Planning Consultants Development
Coordinators dated July 16, 2013
32. The justification report finds that the applications are consistent with the Provincial Policy
Statement and conform to the Greenbelt Plan, Growth Plan for the Greater Golden
Horseshoe, Region of Durham Official Plan and Clarington Official Plan.
33. The proposed development will add to the range and mix of housing types while being
compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood and exemplifies residential
intensification. The compact form and orientation of the development conserves lands,
encourages energy efficiency and minimizes servicing and housing costs. The
development is proposed to be serviced using municipal water and sewer once the
expansion to the Bowmanville water pollution control plant has been completed.
34. It is the consultant's opinion that the applications conform to all applicable policies,
represent good planning and are in the public interest.
Environmental Impact Statement prepared by Beacon Environmental dated March 2013 and
Addendum dated April 9, 2014
35. The objectives of the EIS were to:
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 8
• Identify natural features on and adjacent to the property that pose development
constraints;
• Determine appropriate buffer requirements for said natural features; and
• Identify required mitigation measures in order to reduce any potential impacts.
36. The assessment identified a number of natural heritage features on the subject property
that will be maintained and protected with an appropriate buffer. The report notes the
property consists primarily of agricultural land that is actively farmed. The proposed
residential development will require the removal of approximately 1.63 hectares of
vegetation that is not considered significant. No trees require removal.
37. Development is not proposed within the staked top of bank for the main Soper Creek
branch. Given the gentle slope at this location, the required 6.0 metre safe access can
be located within top of bank.
38. The proposed development will occur entirely outside of the natural hazard area
associated with the Soper Creek tributary. The development allows for a 6.0 metre safe
access outside of the hazard lands for the tributary.
39. From a stormwater management perspective, runoff volumes should be reduced by
implementing low impact design measures to promote natural infiltration across the site.
40. Sediment and erosion control fencing must be installed prior to site preparation and
regularly inspected to ensure that erosion and sediment movement does not occur
during construction.
41. Should vegetation removal be required within the cultural meadow community
immediately east of the residential yard area, removals are to be undertaken outside the
breeding season for birds which is generally between mid-April and July 31St
42. The development has provided a 30 metre buffer to the Soper Creek and its tributary
with the exception of a portion of Street `A' and Lot 1. Through the review of the
applications, the plan was revised to reduce lots widths of the townhouse blocks by 0.5
m, reduce road width from 20 metres to 18 metres and to revise the geometry of the road
elbow. The area of intrusion is approximately 0.12 hectares.
43. The consultant believes the small intrusion can be justified and have noted the
landowners cleanup of the tributary through the Community Stream Stewardship
Program and a proposed planting program within 10 metres of the stream (0.48 hectares
in area) to provide a continuous planted corridor along the tributary to provide a
connection to the wetland/woodland features and the main branch of Soper Creek to the
east. The proposed native species will promote woodland development, function as a
seed source for species to colonize in the open field area to the north, and will provide
shading to improve water quality and habitat.
44. Lot 1 will be fenced as noise attenuation required to the railway. This will assist in limiting
intrusion.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 9
45. The reports find the development is in compliance with the relevant natural heritage
policies.
Conceptual Stormwater Drainage and Servicing Report prepared by D.G. Biddle & Associates
Limited dated May 2013 and addendum dated January 2014.
46. The report identifies the servicing opportunities and design parameters, including the
following conclusions:
• The existing sanitary main can be extended from Cotton Street;
• While there is gravity sewer capacity, the existing sewage treatment plant is at
capacity. Additional plant capacity will be available in the spring 2015;
• A watermain can be extended northerly and westerly from Cotton Street to provide
for domestic water and fire protection;
• A storm main can also be extended from Cotton Street
• On-site storm sewers will be sized to accommodate a 5-year return frequency post-
development event
• Temporary sediment controls during construction can be managed by the use of
perimeter enviro fence, construction vehicle access route, catchbasin filtration and
good engineering practices
• Proposed development will be located outside the Slope Stability Setback;
• A 6.0 metre access allowance separate from the development has not been
provided adjacent to the road extension as the road itself provides access
Environmental Noise & Vibration Feasibility Study prepared by HGC Engineering dated
February 11, 2013
47. The assessment addresses noise generated by vehicular traffic on Mearns Avenue and
railway noise and vibration from the CP Railway corridor.
48. Typically, CP Railway policies require the provision of a safety berm and sound barrier
totaling 5.5 metres in height. However, the railway is approximately 4 metres of above
the grade of the townhouse units, therefore the report recommends clarification from CP
Railway be obtained on this matter. All units will satisfy the minimum 30 metre setback
from the railway.
49. Noise attenuation fencing is required around the four units on the east side of the Cotton
Street extension. Central air conditioning units are to be installed in each unit so that
window may remain closed.
50. All exterior walls require brick construction to maintain indoor noise levels. Certain
windows may require additional glazing which will be determined when detailed floor
plans and elevations are available for the various units.
51. Vibration levels have been assessed and since the units are located a minimum of 65
metres from the railways, vibration mitigation measures are not required.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 10
52. The report recommends several warning clauses for the development, specific to the
presence and possible future expansion of the railway and maintenance of noise
attenuation fencing and air conditioning installed to mitigate noise impacts.
Traffic Impact Study prepared by Tranplan Associates dated April 2013
53. The study concludes that the present road network operates at a good level of service
during peak periods and there is considerable capacity for growth. The traffic generated
will have an acceptable level of impact on the road network. The existing road network
can accommodate the extension of Cotton Street and the additional units without
implementing mitigation measures or improvements to the adjacent road network.
Stage 1 Archaeological Background Study prepared by Amick Consulting Limited dated April
24, 2013, revised November 27, 2013 and Stage 2 Archeaological Assessment dated October
14, 2013
54. The Stage 1 report determined that the study area has archeological potential on the
basis of proximity to water, elevated topography, and the location of an early historic
settlement road adjacent to the study area.
55. The Stage 2 assessment reported on the physical assessment of the ploughed field and
test pits. The report concludes that no archaeological resources were encountered and
recommends no further assessment.
56. The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport has filed both the Stage 1 and Stage 2
Archaeological reports and finds the fieldwork and reporting consistent with Ministry
standards and guidelines.
Energy Efficiency and Sustainability Plan dated April 9, 2013
57. This report addresses the developers' preliminary commitment to energy efficiency,
management of air quality, protection of water quality and quantity, reduction of solid
waste, protection of the natural environment and education of future homeowner's
through a homeowner's guide.
Environmental Screening Assessment prepared by Geo-logic Inc. dated May 9, 2013
58. Based on observations, information collection and present land use, the report
determined the site has a low level of concern from an environmental perspective and is
suitable for residential lot development based on the screening assessment.
_Soper Creek Tributary Floodplain Report prepared by D.G. Biddle Associates Limited dated
April 13, 2012, revised May 24, 2013
59. The report established the regulatory floodline limits of Soper Creek in accordance with
provincial guidelines and in correlation with existing floodplain mapping and
hydrogeological modelling of the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority. The
analysis assists in establishing the development limit for the subject lands.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 11
Meander Belt Width Assessment prepared by Parish Geomorphic dated May 2012 and
addendum dated September 27, 2013
60. The purpose of this report was to establish the hazard limits from a geomorphic
perspective. The report identifies the erosion hazard limits and meander belt width along
the tributary of the Soper Creek which assists in establishing the development limit for
the subject lands.
Geotechnical Investigation Report prepared by Geo-logic Inc. dated January 2014
61. The geotechnical report provides recommendation regarding earthwork construction,
reuse of existing soils as backfill material, dewatering, serving installation, foundation
and pavement design, and slope stability analysis.
Public Submissions
62. Prior to the public meeting, two individuals contacted staff regarding the application with
concerns about the townhouse development moving forward, including compatibility with
existing semi/link units, impact to property values, and traffic.
63. A letter of objection was received September 15, 2013 by residents of Cotton Street. The
residents would prefer Cotton Street temporary cul-de-sac to become permanent without
being extended and propose that the lands be accessed via Mearns Avenue. Other
concerns include:
• Children's safety
• Increase vehicle traffic
• Impacts to property values
• Ground disruption in vicinity of railway and potential for derailment
64. A public meeting was held September 23, 2013. Other than the applicant, no one spoke
in objection to or in support of the applications. Since the public meeting, one individual
has requested to be added as an interested party to the file.
Agency Comments
Durham Regional Planning
65, Durham Regional Planning recognizes that the proposed subdivision is permitted under
the current designations of the Durham Regional Official Plan. The Region confirms the
development is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and highlights the need to
consider overall density targets for the greenfield area.
66. The subdivision agreement must include the recommendation of the Noise Impact Study.
Clearance from the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport regarding the archeological
potential of the site is required prior to final approval. The Region also highlight CLOCA's
role in the review of the environmental reports. The Region accepts the Phase 1 ESA
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 12
findings and recommends the dug well be filled, sealed and abandoned in accordance
with the provincial regulations.
67. The development can be suitably serviced, and accommodated by the existing road
network without significant impacts.
68. The Region has no objections and has provided conditions to include in the final
conditions of draft approval.
Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority
69. Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority provided a number of comments relating to
the review of the Environmental Impact Study, Conceptual Stormwater Drainage and
Servicing Report, Tributary Foodplain Report, Meander Belt Width Assessment and the
Geotechnical Report.
70. Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority reviewed the proposed planting plan for the
tributary corridor and accepts the plan.
71. Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority has now accepted the finding of the
supporting technical studies and is satisfied that the development can proceed. Central
Lake Ontario Conservation Authority provided conditions to include in the final conditions
of draft approval.
Canadian Pacific Railway
72. To ensure the safety and comfort of adjacent residents and to mitigate as much as
possible the inherent adverse environmental factors, CP Railway requests that the
following comments be considered when drafting the Conditions of Subdivision Approval:
• Typically, railways request that a suitable safety berm be constructed on adjoining
property, parallel to the railway right-of-way. With the closest residential units being
proposed at a set-back of close to 75m from the CPR right-of-way, CP has
confirmed a berm will not be required in this instance.
• Dwellings must be constructed such that the interior noise levels meet MOE criteria.
We have reviewed the Environmental Noise & Vibration Feasibility Study as
prepared by HGC Engineering on February 11, 2013 and support the
implementation of the recommendations contained therein. CP Railway notes the
lack of acoustic barrier for the westerly unit of Block 3 adjacent to Mearns Avenue.
Because of the track curvature, CP Railway believes there will be a flanking
exposure for the rear outdoor living area
• As noted in the Environmental Noise & Vibration Feasibility Study, a clause should
be inserted in all offers to purchase, agreements of purchase and sale or lease and
in the title deed or lease of each dwelling within 300m of the railway right-of-way,
warning prospective purchasers or tenants of the existence of the Railway's
operating right-of-way; the possibility of alterations including the possibility that the
Railway may expand its operations, which expansion may affect the living
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 13
environment of the residents notwithstanding the inclusion of noise and vibration
attenuating measures in the design of the subdivision and individual units, and that
the Railway will not be responsible for complaints or claims arising from the use of
its facilities and/or operations.
Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board
73. Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board has reviewed the proposed applications and
indicates that the development may generate up to 6 elementary pupils to attend John
M. James Public School and up to 3 secondary pupils to attend Bowmanville High
School.
Other Agencies
74. Veridian Connections, Canada Post, Durham Region Transit, Enbridge Gas, Bell and
Rogers Communications have no objections to the proposed applications.
Departmental Comments
Clarington Engineering Services
75. Clarington Engineering Services accepts the findings of the Traffic Impact Study. The
department has no objection to the approval of the applications, and has offered
conditions of approval and technical comments to be addressed during the detailed
design of the subdivision.
76. The owner will be responsible for the construction of an emergency access between
Mearns Avenue and the cul-de-sac on the west end of Cotton Street. As part of the
engineering works, the owner must also remove the existing temporary turning circle at
the present limit of Cotton Street and reconstruct that portion of the street accordingly.
77. The street has units along the south side only; there is sufficient on-street parking along
the north side of Street 'A'.
78. The Conceptual Stormwater Drainage and Servicing report has provided adequate
justification that the lands can be suitably serviced by existing municipal water and
sanitary services in the area, and that storm water drainage can be accommodated.
79. Conditions of draft approval will require the owner to install fencing along the railway and
adjacent to open space blocks.. The conditions of draft approval will require warning
clauses specific to the nearby railway and proposed rear yard catch basins.
Clarington Emergency & Fire Services
80. Emergency and Fire Services have requested an emergency access route, they also
request that it be signed.
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 14
Other Departments
81. Clarington Operations and Clarington Building Division have no concerns or objections
with the proposed applications.
Discussion
82. The subject lands are within the urban area and designated for residential development.
However, the site is highly constrained and difficult to develop due to:
• Fixed alignment of Cotton Street;
• Inability to obtain a full secondary access along Mearns Avenue given the future
grade separation of the railway at Mearns Avenue;
• Watercourses/valleylands crossing the site; and,
• Proximity to the CP Railway.
83. Much of the overall site is designated Environmental Protection Area, including the Soper
Creek valley and a minor tributary which traverses the lands. The limits of the subdivision
have been increased to include "Other lands owned by applicant" as an "Open space"
block to be dedicated to the Municipality of Clarington. These lands lack development
potential and including them as part of the Municipality's open space system is the best
use of the lands. The lands would be able to accommodate a trail connection between
the Soper Creek Valley and Mearns Avenue in the future.
84. The street townhouses proposed are 6 metres in width. In recent years, the Municipality
has been requiring 7 metre townhouse lots due to parking concerns. The single loaded
road in this proposal provides for sufficient on-street visitor parking and the 6 metre wide
units can be supported.
85. The proposed draft plan provides a mix of units that complies with the density and
population targets of both the Durham Regional Official Plan and the Clarington Official
Plan. The development would be a sequential and logical extension of existing
development to the south, and would make efficient use of servicing and road
Infrastructure that exists in the area.
86. The parkland dedication, or cash-in-lieu thereof, is based on the limit of the original draft
plan of subdivision would be nominal at 0.084 hectares. Given the plan has been revised
to dedicate 4.3 hectares of open space to the Municipality of Clarington, part of which
can be used for a future trail connection, staff support waiving the parkland dedication
requirement for this subdivision.
87. The EIS and supporting technical studies derived a development limit that takes into
account the many constraints of the site and provides a development plan that generates
an appropriate unit yield. While the development encroaches into the required 30 metre
buffer from the tributary (blue dashed line on Figure 3 below), the applicant proposes an
extensive planting plan for the area illustrated in the orange hatching below. The
approved planting plan includes over 800 native tree and shrub species to mitigate the
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 15
encroachment by shading the watercourse, improving water quality and habitat, and by
providing a seed source for the vacant open space lands to the north.

Figure 3: Extract from Environmental Impact Study
88. The written and verbal public comments received were in objection to development. The
principal concerns relate to traffic, safety and property values. However, the lands are
designated for urban residential development. Cotton Street has always been planned
to extend northerly. Lots were draft approved in the vicinity of the existing temporary cul-
de-sac and frozen until the extension of Cotton Street is completed. Extending Cotton
Street and development of the lots will have an acceptable level of impact to the
neighbourhood and the concerns raised are not reasons, from a planning perspective, to
deny the applications. The site will enhance the area with publicly accessible open
space.
89. Conditions of Draft approval are included as Attachment 1 and reflect the comments and
conditions provided by staff and agencies. The applicant has provided concurrence with
the attached proposed conditions of Draft Approval.
90. It is recommended that the subject lands be placed in urban residential zones to allow for
the layout of the street townhouse and semi-detached lots. The zones applied reflect
current standards seen in newer subdivisions with respect to lot coverage and setbacks
and consistent with the surrounding neighbourhood. The Holding provision will be utilized
Municipality of Clarington
Report PSD-047-14 Page 16
to ensure adequate access and services are in place prior to development and will be
lifted by Council when the appropriate conditions are met. The proposed Zoning By-law
Amendments are included as Attachment 2.
91. All taxes owing to the Municipality of Clarington have been paid in full.
