SUBJECT: Application for Rezoning Number A-3-9-2
Part Lot 28, Concession 5, Village of Orono,
former To-unship of Clare - Lora May McLaren
(Map attached)
BAC:GROUND:
The subject application: requests an amendment to the Clarice
Zoning By-late- to rezone a 214 square metre 1'2303 square feet) parcel
of land fronting on Station Street in the Village of Orono.
The subject parcel of and, C,7hich is presently zoned "Industrial',
forms part of a lot which is zoned "Residential" in the Clarice Ey-la-;i.
r l2e applicant intends to rczona this parcel of land i-, or ie ''=flat
entire lot laTv be appropriately zoned for Residential purposes.
The site 1s design nte( ''r'??:ll in the Region of Durham 01 1C12i
Plan. The proposed residential use is pe=itted under this designation
in the Regional Official Plan. SecEion 10.4.1.-' or the Plan permits
residential development in the f orm of minor i n_er.al inr zll-,<g or ao'L-t
_c:-s
to existing development, therefore, the proposal would conform., with th.e
policies of the Official Plan.
The aoDlicat-on was circulated to the Durham Planning and Wor1:s
Departments, the Durham Health Unit, Orono Public tit .lines Co?m2ss-3ft,
NeWCastle and Building Departments, and tl.?e Loii'- -Range Pla:xar for
the Town of Newcastle for coFduea t.
The Durham Planning and Works DeLartmants submitted the following
comments'.
"The subject site is located in Orono, a designated "Hamlet"
in the Durham Regional Official Plan. Development is limited
to minor internal infilling andifor minor additions to existing
development. The proposed razoning which would facilitate the
creation of two additicon! residential lots appears to conform.
With respect to the prevision of Regional Services, municipal
water supply is available to the frontage of the subject land
abutting Station Street. There are no sanitary sewer services
in Orono.''
The Orono Public Utilities Commission submitted the following:
"The Commission did not object to the closing of these streets
as long as an easement was given where Hydro Utilities existed.
At poesent, a Hydro line is located on the unnamed street be-
tween Cobbledick Street and the rear property live of the M20-
cal Centre or the extension of Victoria Street.
The Commission also felt that this rezoning might help to
straighten out the street line on Station Street which has
been a source of controversy for a number of years".
Tho Ncwcastle Works Department stated the following:
"Q! There are no objections to the proposed rezoning, from
industrial to residential use.
(b) it has already bean agreed that the road allowances -
Victoria Street and the unnamed street - will be closed
by by-law and conveyed to the abutting owners. This is
in lieu of land conveyed to the Town for proper ownership
of Station Street.
There is unccrtainsy as to whether the Plan, as presenned,
is correct. Upon the closure and conveyance of Victoria
Street, the Act requires that it be apportioned, and offered
equally, to each abutting owner. Should the owner to nha
south of Victoria Street wish to exercise his option to pur-
chase his share, then the Plan, as shown, would be incorrect".
The following agencies had no objection to the proposed rezoning:
The Durham Health Unit
The Newcastle Buildins Do artment
The Lon Range Planner for the Town of Newcastle
M=ENTS:
Staff, have reviewed the application and would have no
objection to .4-t-s approval provided that the closure and conveyance
of Victoria and the "unnamed`' street is comipleted. Uzi have
been advised b- the Public WorL;.s Department that they are ir. t-lie
process of closing and conveyi--n-, 3�hese streets and that this will
be com.pleteC, in the near future.
Pla,rar-ing Staff recommend that this file ra-,-,qa-Lr-, "inactive"
until this has been resolved.
