BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: On August 20, 1986, the Planning Department received an application from Mr. R. Bruynson on behalf of Mr. John Rice to permit the development of a seventy-seven (77) unit condominium apartment building. The Bowmanville Urban Area Plan requires a number of studies to be completed. These studies are especially critical when examining a proposal of this scale. In the past, servicing for this site had been an issue. From verbal comments from the Region, the . . .2 e REPORT NO.: PD-252-86 Page 2 capacity apparently exists for this site. It also must be determined whether the increase in scale on this site will adversely impact the development potential of other sites in the drainage area. The other Study required by this plan is a Noise and Vibration Study. This site is relatively close to the Canadian Pacific track, therefore, the impact and attenuation measures must be examined. This Study must be completed and the Ministry of Environment will have to comment upon the Study. Staff would note for the Committee' s information that pursuant to Council ' s resolution of July 26, 1982 and the requirements of the Planning Act, the appropriate signage acknowledging the application was installed on the subject lands. In accordance with departmental procedures, the application was circulated to obtain comments from other departments and agencies as noted within Staff Report PD-167-86. At this time there are a number of comments which are outstanding. Staff wishes to have responses from a number of these agencies before coming forward with a recommendation. At this time the following are the only responses the Planning Department has received. Newcastle Community Services Department has requested that 5% cash-in-lieu of parkland be paid. The Town's Building Department and the Regional Health Department have no objections to the proposal . The Newcastle Fire Department has raised concerns regarding the access to the main entrance from Scugog Street, the parking areas for emergency vehicles, and the lack of turn around facilities in the parking area accessed from Wellington Street. These concerns can be addressed through minor changes to the site concept. . . .3 1v 1P REPORT NO.: PD-252-86 Page 3 In addition, Staff are concerned with the potential impact of a structure of this bulk and massing upon this site, neighbouring sites and the development potential of the entire area. Until all of the impact studies have been completed, Staff is not in a position to present a recommendation to Council . At such time as all required studies and comments have been received, a further report will be submitted. Respect s pitted, T.T. Edwards, M.C. I.P. Director of Planning r� TFC*T1'E*j i p *Attach.
