DATE: Monday, November 3, 1986
REPORT #: PD-261-86 FILE #: DEV 86-53
SUBJECT: REZONING APPLICATION - BARRY WESTERMAN
PART LOT 31, CONCESSION 2, DARLINGTON
OUR FILE: DEV 86-53
RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee
recommend to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-261-86 be received; and
2. THAT the application for rezoning (File: DEV 86-53) be denied without prejudice,
as the proposal does not conform to the servicing requirements of the Durham
Regional Official Plan.
BACKGROUND AND COMVE-NT:
On September 11, 1986 the Planning Department received an application from Mr. Barry
Westerman to rezone a 0.25 hectare parcel of land to pe rmi t the development of two (2)
additional lots. The present zoning is "Holding-Urban Residential Type One ( (H)R1) ". The
site is located within the Courtice Urban Area of the Town of Newcastle and is designated
for Low Density Residential development. At this time, the site would have to be
developed on private services.

REPORT NO.: PD-261-86 Page 2
in accordance with departmental policy, the application was circulated to
various agencies/departments for comments. At this time the following
agencies have responded with no objections to the proposal :
- Town of Newcastle Building Department
- Town of Newcastle Fire Department
- Town of Newcastle Community Services Department
- Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority
- Ministry of Agriculture and Food
- Ministry of Natural Resources
- Ontario Hydro
The Newcastle Community Services also made note that the 5% cash-in-lieu of
parkland will be a requirement of this development.
In order to permit the removal of the "Holding" symbol from this site, the
soil and groundwater conditions must be suitable for private services and
this must be established by the Regional Health Services Department. The
comment from the Health Unit was:
". . .and insofar as health matters are concerned, approval is not
recommended as lot sizes are insufficient for on-site sewage
disposal ."
The Courtice Urban Area Plan permits infilling prior to the availability of
full municipal services in the same manner as the Zoning By-law, so long as
such development is in accordance with the Durham Regional Official Plan.
The Durham Plan permits, as an exception, the development of lots on private
services provided that:
a) the private wasate disposal system complies with the standards
of the Ministry of the Environment as amended and as administered
by the Medical Officer of Health;
b) the drilled well does not detrimentally affect adjacent
properties;
c) the development is in accordance with any relevant provisions
which may have been incorporated in the respective district plan
and/or zoning by-laws; and
d) such other conditions as Council deems necessary have been met."

REPORT NO.: PD-261-86 Page 3
This proposal is to create three (3) lots. The two (2) new lots were to be
approximately 60' x 130' . This size of lot would conform to the lot
frontage and lot area requirements of the zoning by-law, but not to the
provisions regarding services.
At this time, Staff would recommend denial of the application as the
proposal is premature. When full services are available, Staff will be in a
position to review the application.
This area is intended to be developed for Low Density Residential uses and
shall be so developed once the proper servicing is made available. After
review of the proposed development plan for Courtice, it is apparent that
this proposal will not interfere with the future development of lands to the
rear. The proposed lots are of similar depth to those surrounding the site,
to both the north and south. The possibility of double frontage is not an
issue since these lots are only 130' to 135' in depth.
The servicing requirements of each of the Planning documents is explicit
that the Regional Health Services Department must approve any private septic
and/or water systems in an Urban Area. If such an approval is not granted,
the intent of neither the Official Plan, or the Zoning By-law are being met.
Until a servicing proposal , which conforms to the Official Plan , is brought
forward, Staff is not in a position to approve the application.
Respectfully submitted,
T.T. Edwar s, M.C.I .P.
