SUBJECT: Application for Rezoning, Part Lot 28, Concession
5, former Township of Clarke (Orono) - A. Mangar
Our File: Z-A-5-10-4

BACKGROUND:
in December of 19789 the applicant, Mr. M. Mangar applied
to the Committee of Adjustment for permission to erect an extension,
to a legal non-conforming use, a public garage on the east side of
Mill Street in Orono. The Cc:vittee of Adjustment granted the appli-
cation, . hick was subsequently appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board.
The Ontario Municipal Board, copy of decision attached, set
aside the decision of the Committee of Adjustment on the grounds that
the nor.-conforming use did not include an auto-body repair business
and that the proposed extension for such a purpose, therefore, did not
qualify finder the legislation, (please refer to page S of the decision) .
in December of 1979, Mr. Mangar filed an application for res_m."_nv
for the purposes of removing Lhe non-conforming status from the subject
property and Co allow for additional uses to be undertaken within the
existing building. The additional uses include, "used car sales" and
"body work for safety purposes".
IV
Staff have circulated the application to the following
agencies, (comments received are included) :
Durham Regional Planning and Works Departments
"Further to your request for comments, please be advised
that the subject property is located within Orono, a
designated hamlet in the Durham Regional Official Plan.
The applicant proposed to have the property rezoned in
order to carry on the existing commercial use in the
residential zone. in this regard, Section 16.6.5 of
the Durham Plan permits the area municipality to zone
land to permit the continuation, expansion or enlarge-
ment of existing uses provided that such uses have
no adverse effect on the present uses of the surrounding
lands or the implementation of the provision of the Dur-
ham Plan. The proposed rezoning conforms.
With regard to services, municipal water supply is avail-
able. There is no sanitary sewer in Orono and the Region
has no plan to introdaco this service into the village."
Ministry of the Environment Approvals and Planning Technical
Support Section''
"As requested, we have reviewed the proposeS re-zoning
application; the purpose of which is to permit the contin-
uation of an existing land use. Our investigation determined
that although we arc pncparcd to recognize that Lhcre is a
potential for complaints if specific uses are allowed no
develop on this site. We therefore recommend that if this
re-zoning application is approved that it not permit the
development of an auto body repair shop on these premises.
Emissions to the atmosphere associated with such an operation
in such close proximity to residences would cause insurmountable
problems.
Provided that auto body repair facilities are not permitted
by this re-zoning application or can be excluded from permitted
use on this site, we would not object to she approval of this
re-zoning applica;ion,"

COMMENT:
The application in its present form requests that the existing
non-conforming use be rezoned from "RY Residential to a commercial
zoning category, thereby removing the legal non-conforming status by
recognizing the existing uses. it is the feeling of staff that the
application should not be approved as the existing use is within an
established residential area, it being the purpose of the legal non-
conforming status to ultiman1y have the existing Public garage rcver -
to a use permitted under the "R!" zoning category. Ultimately, therefore,
the land use "conflict" as it now exists would bG removed.
Staff note that the application includes a request to have the
sale of used cars" and "light auto body work" included in a zoning
by-law amen6nanv. Staff do noo feel that these uses are compatible wiun
neighbouring uses and draw the Committee's attention to the comments re-
ceived from the Hinistry of the Enviroment.
REMEENDATIeON.,
Than the Planning and Development Committee recommend to ToW_/_
Council that rezoning application Z-A-3-10-4 be denied and the file
closed.

There are two buildials on the subject Property - a
detached singie familY dwelling at the north Side , and a
building us eO as a public gLrage a& the South sjje it 0;
ttis latteP building for whiat the extension is Proposed.
A 79107 2 .
The &nragw buildin, was constructed about 195&.
According to Me evidencu an :his huarin&, Me uae of one
buildiny fcw� the ime of its .... .... .
time Of the passing of ✓y-law 1653 in 1959 was similar to
that of a public garage as definid in the by- law , or ptrhaps
more closely , to that of a small service station; the building
at that tit s was used for Me sale of gas and oil and for
mechanical or running repairs to vehicles , with an apartmenz
on the second floor. No part of the building was used at
that time as an auto body repair shop or for the painting of
vehicles .
BY-law 1653 Permits a service staWiOn in either a
Commercial Zone or a EigtwaY Commercial Zone , ant a pubin;
garage in a HQhway Commercial Zone , The definition of "public
garage" specifically exclujus from its meaninL for the purposes
of By-law ju&3 "an auto body repair shop" .
The una of the bui3di3'q for the sale of gas and oil an,j
mechanical repairs became a iegal non-conforming use when
By-law 1553 has passed, The bulldinL is still being used for
those purpus&s , but in addizion it i6 being uynd for auto ouny
repairs and Me painting of motor vehicle, . The owner alsi
buys used cars , and repairs and resells them, he acquired the
property i2 1977 , and testified that auto body repairs and
painting wern being carried on by Me previous of when ne
purchased une property; U appears mese usus would noc enjoy
the status of legal non-conforming uses as they did no exist
at the time uf the passing of By-law 1653 .
The purpose of the proposed addicion is to reduce fire
hazards and provi I de more and better space for auto body repairs
and paintinE of vehicles . The subject property is surrounued
by residential properties as shown on the plan filed as
Exhibit 1 and in the Photographs filed as Exhibit 2 . The
appellant and other residents object to the Proposed addition
