THAT the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing be advised that the Town of Newcastle has no objection to the extension of draft approval for Subdivision 18T-76021 for a further one (1 ) year period to December 30, 1987. BACKGROUND ANU COMMENT: On September 22, 1986, the Planning Department received a copy of a letter (attached) from the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing addressed to Mr. Greg Mitchell of Matthews Group. The letter indicated that the draft plan approval of Subdivision 18T-76021 would lapse on December 30, 1986 unless an extension to said approval is obtained prior to the expiry date. As Council may recall , on May 12, 1986, Council approved Resolution #GPA-461-86 requesting Staff review and report on the procedure for extending draft plans. In that regard, when a Plan of Subdivision is submitted for consideration, the various authorities; one being the Town of Newcastle, in reviewing the proposal provide, where applicable, a recommendation for approval and a list of draft conditions for the consideration of the . . .2 gyp) REPORT NO.: PD-233-86 Page 2 approving authority, be it the Ministry of Municipal Affairs or the Region of Durham. Should draft approval be subsequently issued, conditions of approval are to be carried out prior to the expiry date, in this particular case (18T-76021), the original approval was for three (3) years from the date of issuance. Staff would note the conditions as issued by the Town for approval are consistent with the Town' s policies and criteria as evaluated at the time of submission of the draft plan of subdivision. by advising the approving authority, in writing (Ministry of Municipal Affairs) , that the conditions of approval could not be met prior to the expiry date, the applicant requests an extension to the draft approval . Staff in reviewing the request would, upon conferring with the appropriate Town Departments, re-evaluate the conditions of draft approval to ensure conformity with the present policies of the Town , or the need to add conditions to any extension. Staff would note, by way of example, the question of parkland dedication requested through draft approval . Staff, in considering same, would review the relevancy of the condition of approval in the context of present policies; i .e. the submission of a park plan illustrating landscaping, plantings, grading and any park facilities that need to be provided. Additionally, Staff in reviewing each draft extension request, would review all relevant Official Plans and Neighbourhood Plans to ensure continued conformity. Should a concern be raised or a change identified as appropriate, Staff would, through Committee and Council , request consideration for a revision of the original draft conditions of approval . As Committee may recall , draft extensions in the past have been requested for numerous reasons. i .e. economic times, cost of services, public awareness, housing market conditions etc. Staff, in reviewing an application are, however, primarily concerned with the status of the previously imposed conditions of approval relative to the current policies and criteria used by Staff in evaluating Plans of Subdivision. . . .3 REPORT NO.: PD-233-86 Page 3 In this instance, after reviewing the draft extension , as requested, and the present conditions of draft approval , Staff see no need for change and accordingly, would have no objection to the extension of same for a further period of one (1) year to December 30, 1987.
