BACKGROUND: On March 9th, 1982 the owner of the lands affected by By-law 83-69 applied for an amendment to Restricted Area (Zoning) By-law 2111 , as amended of the former Township of Darlington. The subject application for rezoning requested a zone change on a one thousand and thirty square metre (11 ,087 sq.ft. ) triangular parcel of land forming part of an existing commercial /residential lot . This lot has frontage on the south side of Highway No. 2, east of Darlington Boulevard South. The requested by-law amendment would rezone this parcel of land "Special Purpose Commercial" . The subject lands are designated "Residential " by the Region of Durham Official Plan and "Special Purpose Commerical " by the Courtice Urban Area Plan. The inclusion of this triangular parcel of land within the proposed Special Purpose Commercial zoning is in conformity with all applicable Official Plan policies. Accordingly, the General Purpose and Administration Committee at their meeting of June 14th, 1982 endorsed the following resolution : "#GPA-733-82 THAT e recommendations in Report PD-98-82 be endorsed; AND THAT 1 . The Report PD-98-82 be received; . . .3/ REPORT NO. : PD-133-83 Page 3 ��,) 2. The application for rezoning Z-A-1 -6-10 (DEV 82-9) be approved and that the By- law be forwarded to Council for approval at such time as By-law 81 -123 has received Ontario Municipal Board approval ." The proposed By-law was then forwarded to Council for approval on May 9th, 1983 and circulated in accordance with the appropriate procedures as contained within the Planning Act. COMMENTS: As a result of the Clerk's circulation of By-law 83-69, two * letters of objection were received (see attached). Both Mr. Dawson and Mr. Asadoorian 's letters of objection indicated concern with respect to not only the use of the property, but the types of equipment located thereon. (ie; dump trucks, portable air compressor, flatbed low trailer, front-end loaders, mobile crane) which in their opinion , was not applicable to the welding operation on site. It is noted for Committee' s consideration, that staff in view of the objection and particularly in reference to the enforcement of the "Property Standards By-law" inspected the subject property. It is staff's opinion that no apparent contravention of the "Property Standards By-law" exists. Furthermore staff notes that Section 13(bb)II(k) of By-law 81 -123 states as follows : "Notwithstanding any provision of this by-law to the contrary, nothing in this by-law shall prevent the use of any land, building or structure for any use not specifically permitted by this by-law, if such land, building or structure was legally used for such purpose on the date of passing of this by-law." By-law 81-123 was approved by Council on September 21 , i 1981 . The parcel of land for which the rezoning was requested was found to be vacant when staff inspected the i same in July. It is noted for Committee 's information that . . .4/ REPORT NO. : PD-133-83 Page 4 a conversation with the applicant at that point in time, did reveal that the Ministry of Transportation and Communication had been parking their vehicles temporarily within the rear portion of Mr. Moase's property during the work on Highway No. 2 this past summer, however this use has discontinued. Staff did confirm with Mr. Asadoorian, that should Mr. Moase wish to expand his present facilities ie; through an addition to the existing structures, a site plan agreement with the Town would be required, however, noting that the provisions of By-law 81 -123 did permit the continuation of the existing use. In light of the above comments, staff would therefore recommend that By-law 83-69 be forwarded to the Ontario Municipal Board for approval . Resp , T.T. Edwards, M.C. I.P.
