REPORT NO. : 15 P-192-80
SUBJECT: Request for referral to the Ontario Municipal Board
of proposed plans of subdivision 18T-79038 and
18T-77001, Town of Newcastle, owned by Remlark Hold-
ings,_4,nd__GoJd n_„H 1 d __r spectively, oft't`eYTa1 f

of the Planning Act.
Request for Municipal comments on the subject referral
request
BACKGROUND:
On October 3, 1980, the Newcastle Planning Department received
a copy of the attached correspondence from Mr. P. G. Rimmington of the
Ministry of Housing to Mr. P. R. Walker (on behalf of Durcourt Develop-
ments Ltd.) concerning the above noted matter. By copy of that letter,
dated October 1, 1980, Mr. Rimmington requested the Town of Newcastle
to "respond to your (Mr. Walker's) client's objections regarding the
conformity issue.” Mr. Rimmington is making reference to Mr. Walker's
letter of August 28, 1980 to the Honourable C. F. Bennett, Minister of
Housing regarding the conformity of the above mentioned subdivision plans
to the Official Plan of the Township of Darlington as amended by Official
Plan Amendment No. 12. A copy of Mr. Walker's letter to the Minister of
Housing is also attached.

COMMENT:
Amendment Number 12 to the Darlington Official Plan was
approved by the Minister of Housing on June 6, 1980. Amendment 12
defines land uses and policies related to future development within
and in the vicinity of the Courtice Major Urban Area. The Amendment
provides a guide for Council in governing land use and the construction
of public works. Under Section 6.8 of the Amendment policies are set
out in respect of "servicing and staging". It is suggested in Mr.
Walker's letter to the Minister of Housing that the two subdivision
plans do not conform to subsection 6.8.2(iii) reproduced herein in its
entirety:
"6.8.2 iii) Policies in respect of the staging of develop-
ment in the Courtice Major Urban Area shall be
incorporated into this Plan by amendment. In
considering such policies the Town of Newcastle
shall have regard for the potential financial
implications of development as may be determined
by a "Financial Impact Analysis" to be undertaken
by the Town. In considering staging policies,
the Town shall consider development of the Courtice
Community Central Area as described in Section 6.5.2
as a first priority in the development of the Courtice
Major Urban Area."
Staff have reviewed the objection filed on behalf of Durcourt
Investments Ltd. and feel that Town Council should in the strongest terms
possible, urge the Minister of Housing to:
- 3 -
1) consider the requested referral as for the "purposes
of delay" and
2) proceed to grant approval of proposed draft plans of
subdivision 18T-77001 and 18T-79038.
Staff offer the following comments in support of the above:
1. Policies in respect of staging are not a prerequisite
of the draft plan approval or registration of any sub-
division plan in the Courtice Urban Area.
Subsection 6.8.2 (iii) indicates that policies in res-
pect of the staging of development in Courtice shall be
incorporated by Official Plan Amendment. The preparation
and/or the adoption of staging policies is not a precondition
of subdivision approval. It is noted that in other sections
of Amendment 12 qualifications are explicitly made as to
the timing of the approval of plans of subdivision, sub-
section 6.1.2 iii) b) for example.
2. Policies in respect of staging (copy attached) have been
adopted by Town Council and forwarded to the Region of
Durham for inclusion in Amendment 12 by a further Official
Plan Amendment. Those policies themselves do not prohibit
Council from recommending draft plan approval of any sub-
division plan in the Courtice Urban Area.
The proposed staging policies in keeping with Council's
intent, speak to the final approval of subdivision plans
and introduce a flexible mechanism by which the municipality
may further reinforce the development of the Community Central
Area if and when such further reinforcement is considered
necessary.
- 4 -
3. Given that the Municipality is not bound to adopt
policies in respect of staging prior to the approval
of subdivision plans nor prohibited from approving
subdivision plans within any portion of the Courtice
Urban Area and given that the Town has and continues
to endeavour to promote the development of the Courtice
Community Central Area and the development of the Courtice
Urban Area generally; staff feel that the subject referral
request can only serve to delay the development of Courtice
and to impede the Municipality in the fulfillment of its
obligations in the Courtice Area.
As noted in the following lengthy proposed Council resol-
ution, the Town has undertaken to ensure that the develop-
ment of Courtice takes place in an orderly and reasonable
fashion. The approval of subdivision plans 18T-79038 and
18T-77001 are in keeping with Council's actions in Courtice.
The approval of these plans has been viewed as complementary
to the development of the Courtice Central Area and does not,
in the opinion of staff, in any way represent a departure
from the provisions of Amendment No. 12 to the Darlington
Official Plan. The detailed resolution enumerates those
actions of Council in respect of the Courtice Area and it
is felt that any delay in the approval of the subdivision
plans might actually jeopardize the development of Courtice
because of the inability of the proponents of the subdivis-
ions to enter a highly competitive residential housing market.

Dear Mr. Bennett :
Re : Request for Referral to the �1
Ontario Municipal Board pursuant to
Section 44 of the Planning Act in the matter ' 'y ' �,$
of Applications for Plan of Subdivision
18T-79038 and 18T-77001 approved by the
Council of the Town of Newcastle on
23 Ju.1y, 1980 —
Our client' s own lands in Concession 3 , Part of Lots 32 and 33
in the Town of Newcastle formerly the Township of Darlington ,
Region of Durham.
On instructions from our client, Durcourt Developments Limited
we are hereby requesting that the matter of the favourable
recommendation for draft approval of plans of subdivision
18T-79038 and 18T--77001 by the Town of Newcastle on 28 July, 1980
be referred to the Ontario Municipal Board in a hearing pursuant
to Section 44 of the Planning Act of Ontario , R, S ,O. 1970 ,
Chapter 349 .
The reason for this request is that the action by the Town of
Newcastle is not, in our opinion, in conformity with the Official
Plan of the Township of Darlington as amended by Official Plan
Amendment No. 12 approved by the Minister on 6 June , 1980 .
. . . . Continued 2

The Honourable --2_ 28 August , 1980
Claude F. Bennett
Section 6 . 5 , 2 of Official Plan Amendment No . 12 establishes the
Courtice Community Central Area as the main focal point of
activities for the Courtice Urban Area . Section 6 , 8 . 2 (iii) of
Amendment No . 12 states :
"In considering stagi.ng policies, the Town shaZZ
consider deveZopment of the Courtice Community
Central Area as described in Section 6 . 5 . 2 as a
first priority in the development of the Courtice
Major Urban Area ".
Plans of subdivision 18T79038 and 18T77001 approved by the
Town of Newcastle 28 July, 1980 are located in what is known as
the Courtice West Neighbourhood , more than 1 . 5 kilometres to
the west of the Courtice Community Central Area . In our opinion
the development of those plans of subdivision and other lands
in the Courtice West Neighbourhood would not be supportive of the
development_ of the Community Central Area . There is much land
suitable for development in close proximity to the Community
Central Area which should be allowed to develop prior to land in
the Courtice West Neighbourhood , if indeed the future development
of the Community Central Area is to receive first priority as
suggested in Section 6 , 8 . 2 (iii) .
It has always been our contention that the development of the
Courtice West Neighbourhood should not receive development
priority. Submissions have been made to the Town of Newcastle
in support of this position and discussions have been held
with Staff and Council in an attempt to resolve our differences .
No solution could be found and the Town has proceeded to recommend
draft approval of the two subdivisions in the Courtice West
Neighbourhood which are the subject of this request.
A formal lettex of objection to the Town ' s 'favourable
recommendation of these subdivisions was submitted to Council
in a letter dated 21 July, 1980 . The letter was received by
Council and the subdivisions were approved 28 July, 1980 . We.
are .continuing to pursue a negotiated settlement, however , it
appears that such is unlikely to be achieved and for this
reason we feel the matter would be best resolved at a hearing
before the Ontario Municipal Board .
. . . . Continued 3
fqr
The Honourable 28 August, 1980
Claude F. Bennett
We trust that the above highlights the substance of our
request. Further information in support of this request will
be provided as required .
Thank you for your consideration of this matter .
