REPORT NO. : PD-5-85 Page 2
BACKGROUND:
One of the earlier proposals submitted to the Town by Per.
Pollard for the development of 26.1 hectares of land in Part
of Lots 29 & 30, Concession 3, Darlington proposed the
construction of a medium density townhouse development on a
3.5 hectare parcel (indicated in the proposal as Block C) to
provide a buffer between the high density component of the
development north of the watercourse and existing single
family residences to the south. Such a buffer was required
by the Courtice Urban Area Plan which stated that high
density uses must be separated from low density areas by a
transition through the medium density range.
As a result of public input received with respect to the
development proposal , it became apparent that area residents
were concerned regarding the landuse designation and
densities of Block C.
On July 25, 1984, Council approved a Neighbourhood
Development Plan for Courtice Neighbourhood 3B. The
Neighbourhood Plan as approved designated the area to the
north of the watercourse for high density development.
Block C was designated low density and medium density which
provided the medium density buffer for the approval of the
high density component as required by Official Plan policies
in effect at that time. However, the designation of Block C
was further indicated as "deferred" and therefore subject to
further review.
At the July 25, 1984 meeting, Council also approved By-law
84-89, which approved the high density component of the
Pollard proposal and zoned Block C as "D-Deferred
Development". The provisions of the by-law were
...3

subsequently incorporated into By-law 84-63, with Block C
being zoned "N(Rl )". The R1 zone would permit small lot
single family, as well as semi-detached and duplex
dwellings, uses which would be in the lower end of the range
for medium density development.
In Report PD-2-85, which was considered by Committee earlier
in this meeting, Staff present a draft Amendment No. 20 to
the former Darlington Township Official Plan. The amendment
proposed that Open Space and/or Parkland be permitted as a
buffer between high density and low density uses. The
Amendment further proposed that this requirement be
eliminated if the high density and low density developments
are both proposed as part of a comprehensive development
scheme which is covered by a Site Plan Agreement with the
Town.
In Report PD-3-85, Staff presented Amendment No. 2 to the
Neighbourhood 3B Development Plan which removed the deferred
designation from Block C and designated it for low density
residential development.
COMMENT:
Mr. Pollard has indicated to Staff that he would like to
develop Block C for single family lots with frontages and
areas greater than required by the R2 zone. With reference
to Amendment No. 20, Staff note that there is Open Space
associated with the intermittent watercourse between the
high density component and Block C. As well , Staff would
consider the development of Block C as being part of a
larger comprehensive development scheme. In Staff's
opinion, the approval of low density single family dwelling
for Block C would be in conformity with the Courtice Urban
Area Plan, as amended by Amendment No. 20, and the amended
. . .4
REPORT NO. : PD-5-85 Page 4
Neighbourhood Development Plan and much more compatible with
the character of the adjacent existing development.
* Staff have therefore drafted a by-law (attached) to rezone
Block C to "(H)R2-3". This zone designation would permit
the construction of single family homes with a requirement
for larger frontages and areas than required by the R2 zone.
The applicant could apply for the removal of the (H)Holding
provision at such time as full municipal services are
available to the property, and the necessary Servicing and
Subdivision Agreements have been executed with the Region of
Durham and the Town respectively.
It is respectfully recommended that the by-law attached to
this report be approved.
