TO: Chairman and Members of the REPORT N0, P-54-78
Planning and Development Committee DATE: June 20, 1978
SUBJECT: Report on Application for Plan of Subdivision,
No. S-A-1-13-5, (Preliminary) Part of Lots 25
and 26, Concession 6, Darlington - Ralph Davis
1. Purpose of Application
On May 26, 1978, an application was submitted for approval of
a plan of subdivision proposed for a 21 acre site immediately west
of the Ashton subdivision in Solina. The applicant proposes to
subdivide the land into 13 single family residential lots and to
dedicate a 6.2 acre open space block to the Municipality. We
estimate -the total population of the proposed subdivision to be
39 persons.
2. Official Plan Provisions
(a) Darlington Official Plan
The site is designated "Residential-Suburban" and "Greenbelt"
in the Darlington Official Plan. The development of the portion
designated "Residential-Suburban" for residential purposes is
permitted at a density of 10 persons per acre. The Plan states
that the predominant use in areas designated "Greenbelt" shall
be for "conservation and recreational purposes". Development
of lots totally within the Greenbelt area for residential purposes
would not be permitted.

Amendment No. 10 to the Darlington Official Plan, which has
been approved by Regional Council and is currently under review
by the Minister of Housing, would delete the land use designations
applied to Solina in the Darlington Official Plan and replace
them with the land use designations and policies of the Solina
District Plan.
(b) Solina District Plan
The Western portion of the proposed subdivision is designated
"Area Subject to Development Restrictions" in the Solina District
Plan. No permanent structures or septic tanks are permitted
within this area.
The north-east and south-east portions axe designated "Area
Proposed for Expansion" and "Hamlet Plan Area" respectively.
The Plan allocates a maximum of 14 residential units to Area
B of the "Area Proposed for Expansion", which includes the
north-east quadrant of the subject plan and the Ashton Sub-
division. Since the Town has recommended approval of a
12 lot subdivision on the Ashton property, only 2 lots would
be permitted on north-eastern portion of the Davis property
without an Official Plan amendment. Such an Official Plan
Amendment could only be considered once the 14 permitted lots
have been developed.
The portion of the site delineated as an axea for infilli.ng
may be developed on the basis of 3/4 acre lots, and no limitation
is placed on the number of units permitted annually.
3. Other Comments
Part of the site lies within the floodplain of the Farewell Creek.
The Plan should therefore be circulated to the Central hale Ontario
Conservation Authority and Ministry of Natural Resources for their
comments.
i
4@ Recommendation
It is recommended that staff be authorized to circulate the
subject application and to prepare a formal report. Since it
appeaxe unlikely that more than 10 lots will be permitted on
the site, we would recommend that no further application fees
be collected.
Respectfully submitted,
Norma J. Forrest,
Planner - Current Operations
