BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: On May 28, 1986, the Planning Department received an application for rezoning, submitted by Mrs. Judy Mintz, to permit the development of a Day Nursery. Within the Region of Durham Official Plan and the Courtice Urban Area Official Plan, the subject property is desigiiated within the "Residential" designation. Section 8.1.2.1a) within the Durham Plan stipulates that Day Care Centres may be permitted in "Residential " . . .2 A REPORT NO.: PD-209-86 Page 2 areas subject to the inclusion of appropriate requirements in the respective Zoning By-law. 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. Staff would note, furthermore, that three (3) Letters of Objection were submitted as a result of the Public Notice signs, however, upon clarification 3f the location of the proposed Day Care facility, the three (3) Letters of Objection were withdrawn at the request of each individual . In accordance with department procedures, the application was circulated to obtain comments froin other departments and agencies as noted within Staff Report PD-166-86. Staff would note the following departments/agencies, in providing comment, ffered no objections to the application as filed: 1. Ontario Hydro; 2. Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority; 3. Ministry of Agriculture and Food; 4. Town of Newcastle Community Services; 5. Peterborough-Victoria-Northumberland and Newcastle Roman Catholic Separate School Board. 6. Town of Newcastle Building Department "The proposed use is an "A2" occupancy as defined in the Building Code. As no construction is proposed, the Building Code Change of Occupany provisions do not a ply. Should the garage be renovated in the future, it is possible that a permit will be required at that time." 7. Town of Newcastle Fire Department "This Department haS no objections to the above-headed application. Emergency fire response would be from Fire Station #4 which is within an acceptable travel distance. Municipal water is available for fire fighting in this area. Any building renovation is to comply with the Ontario Building Code and t e Ontario Fire Code. The Day Nursery shall comply with the standard for fire safety established by Durham Region Social Services and the Ontario Standard for Day Care Nurseries. . . .3 REPORT NO.: PD-209-86 Page 3 7. Town of Newcastle Fire Department - (Cont'd) Further to our comments of June 10, 1986 and after reviewing the proposed plans I would note the following: 1. Exit lighting is required. 2. Emergency lig ting is required for below grade areas. 3. Two (2) fire axtinguishers are required to be installed; 1 BC 51b. at kitchen entra ce and 1 ABC Multi-purpose 51b. in basement area. 4. Smoke alarms are required on the first and basement floor areas and are to be int rconnected so that the activation of one alarm will cause all ala ms within the building unit to sound. 5. For future ex ansion, garage area is not to be used until plans are submitted and approved for its use. Building construction and renovation is to be in accordance with the Ontario Building and Ontario Fire odes." 8. Region of Durham Planning Department "In response to you^ request for comments, we note that the subject property is designated "Resi enti al" in both the Durham Regional Official Plan and the Official Plano the Town of Newcastle. Section 8.1.2.1a) of the Durham Plan stipulates tha Day Care Centres may be permitted in "Residential" areas subject to th inclusive of appropriate requirements in the Zoning By-law. Accordingl , the proposed Day Care Centre may be permitted in this designation. Regarding Regional ervices, water supply and sanitary sewer services are not currently avail able to the subject property. Existing facilities are located approximate y 150 feet to the east, but the Region has no plans to extend such service;. Accordingly, the proposal may be permitted to proceed on the basis of pri ate services provided that the following requirements of Section 8.1.3.1 of he Durham Plan are satisfied: a) The private w ste disposal system complies with the standards of the Ministry of E vironment as amended, and is administered by the Medical Office of Health. b) The drilled well does not detrimentally affect adjacent properties. c) The deveiopme t is in accordance with any relevant provision which may have been incorporated in the respective District Plan and/or Zoning By-laws. . . .4 REPORT NO.: PD-209-86 Page 4 8. Region of Durham Planning Department - (Cont'd) d) Such other conditions as Council deems necessary have been met." Staff note that inasmuch as this is not a residential use the development of same on private services is not permitted. In this regard we are not in agreement with the comments of Regional Planning Staff. 9. The Region of Durham Health Unit "The above application for rezoning has been investigated by this Health Department and insofar as health matters are concerned, there are no objections to its approval . I would, however, stress that the applicant should be advised that the existing sewage system is not of sufficient size to handle the sewage which would be generated by the Day Nursery. Should the existing system malfunction, it must be replaced-in accordance with current regulations." (underlining added by Staff) 10. Newcastle Wor s Department "We have reviewed tie above-noted application and have no objections in principle to the pr posed change. However, Staff would request that a cash contribution for tha reconstruction of Nash Road, fronting the proposed Day Care facility, be provided and that an appropriate vehicular access and parking area arrang ment be provided." STAFF COMMENTS In addition to the bove-noted agencies to which Staff circulated the application , the Mi iistry of Community and Social Services, pursuant to the licencing requireme is for the proposed facility, was requested to provide comment. Staff was advised that the Ministry does not offer comment upon the appropriateness of the Day Care facility inasmuch as the "rezoning" of the property is of ocal jurisdiction. However, Staff was advised that Ministry Staff, in onsideration of the Ministry regulations; pending the completion of the rezoning application, could licence for twenty-one (21) children based upon their criteria of thirty (30) square feet of unobstructed floor area/play area per child. As noted within Section 8.1.2.1 of the Regional Official Plan, certain public recreational and community uses such as Day Care Centres are permitted to be established in "Residentially" designated areas subject to . . .5 f REPORT NO.: PD-209-86 Page 5 the inclusion of appropriate requirements in the respective Zoning By-law. Furthermore, the provisions of Section 8.1.3.1 state that the "residential " areas shall be fully serviced by municipal water and sewage systems being a necessary condition before "residential " development is permitted in any of the designated areas. However, as an exception prior to the availability of sanitary sewers and/or municipal water supply, development may be permitted as infilling on existing lots of record on private services. It is Staff's opinion that this e ception, when taken in the context of the relevant section, is directed towards residential development rather than the additional uses per itted in a "residentially designated area" as noted above within Sectio 8.1.2.1. The comments of the Durham Regional Health Unit would substantiate this position noting that the existing sewage system is not of sufficient size to handle the sewage w ich would be generated by the Day Nursery operation. It is Staff's understanding, following discussions with both Regional and Town Works Staff, t at full services, water, storm and sanitary are proposed along Darlington Boulevard North to service the next phase of development within Plan of Subdivision 18T-77001 (Schleiss and Holland). Furthermore, this system would b designed to accommodate sufficient capacity to service the subject lands t rough an extension of services, easterly along Nash Road. This extension of services would be the responsibility of the applicant pending the necessary financial arrangements with Regional and Town Works Department. In addition to the ezoning application, Staff would note that Site Plan approval for the pr posed Day Care Centre would be warranted thereby addressing the faci ities associated with the use i .e. parking areas, provision of play areas, fencing etc. Staff, in reviewing the proposal , would consider the site appropriate for use as a Day Care facility. The location and availability of direct access to a minor collector - Nash Road, is superior to that of a location within a residential subdivision on a "Local " road. Staf would note the proximity of the Courti ce Public School on the north side o Nash Road and noise levels associated with same . . .6 REPORT NO.: PD-209-86 Page 6 would generally be onsistent with those generated from the Day Care facilities i .e., st dent activity time outdoors, vehicular traffic activities within the school property. In consideration of the above-noted comments and concerns, it is Staff's opinion that by pla ing the subject property within the appropriate zoning category, and being subject to the (H) Holding symbol provides the applicant with the assurances that a Day Care facility may be operated from the site subject to the remo al of the (H) Holding symbol pending the provision of services and completion of a Site Plan Agreement for the Day Care facilities. Staff Would note for the Committee' s information that the applicant has been advised of Staff's position and recommendation to be submitted to Committee for consideration. In closing, Staff w uld note that, should the applicants not be in a position to agree with Staff's recommendations and the avenue proposed to permit the use as a Day Care Facility, Staff would not be in a position to support the applica ion and would respectfully recommend that the application be denied without prejudice as being premature until services are available to permit the use of the site for a Day Care Facility.
