The drawings indicate it will be a single storey building containing the main church, two smaller chapels, a gift shop, two classrooms, gathering room and associated church offices. In the future, a manse (rectory) will also be constructed in a separate building. 9.2 The applicant has also concurrently submitted an application for site plan approval (SPA2002/047), indicating number and location of parking spaces, landscaping, signage and entrance location. 9.3 The applicant has provided a detailed storm water management plan, prepared by Marshall, Macklin and Monaghan, reviewing both storm water quality. Central Lake Ontario Conservation, Clarington Planning Services and Engineering Services Departments have reviewed this report and are satisfied that storm water has been adequately addressed and will be implemented through the site plan approval process. 9.4 An Environmental Impact Study (EIS) is generally required for development occurring within 50 metres of top of bank for cold water streams. An on-site meeting in October with Central Lake Ontario Conservation, Clarington Planning Services Department, Marshall, Macklin & Monaghan Consultants, a representative of the church and the agent was conducted to assess visually the Tooley Creek tributary. The tributary was dry and there is no discernible creek bed or top-of-bank. The site plan for this property indicates that development will generally occur on the western portion of the property, a minimum of 41 metres 653 ....

Municipal and Conservation Authority staff are satisfied that an EIS is not warranted in this instance. 9.2 The Municipality shall require, through the site plan process, the dedication of the tributary lands. As there is no discernible creek bank (or top of bank) the land dedication shall include lands from the eastern property limits to 5 metres west of the drip line of the established tree line.
