1.0 BACKGROUND
In a report to Council, WD-20-01 dated May 22, 2002, Council approved in
principle the expansion of the parking facilities at 26 Beech Avenue in the area
south of the tennis courts (see Attachment No.1).
In that report, staff recommended ongoing discussions with all tenants and the
Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association (OBNA) to review on-site parking
opportunities and design tender specifications. Two meetings were held on June
22nd and August 16th, with invitations being extended to all tenants of the Beech
Centre and property, as well as the OBNA.
ISSUES AND CONCERNS:
Clarinaton Emeraencv and Fire Services:
The Clarington Emergency and Fire Services Chief attended the meeting of
August 16th and explained the concerns about restricted access to the residential
homes on Beech Avenue and the restricted use of emergency vehicles due to
the width of the street. In the interest of safety and liability, and with the present
street design, the Chief is against permitting any on street parking as a solution
to the parking concerns of the Beech Centre which would restrict the use and
operation of emergency vehicles to the site. There were suggestions to create
bump-ins for parking which could be considered at the time of the reconstruction
of Beech Avenue in consultation with the residents.
Old Bowmanville Neiahbourhood Association:
The Association is still opposed to the increase of parking spaces at the Centre.
They are also opposed to anyon-site hard top parking that results in the
elimination or minimization of the green space at the rear of the building. The
representatives felt that the new location was a generous compromise to the
702
'.
REPORT NO.: OPD-02-01

problem and that it did preserve the rear green space for passive recreational
use.
ClarinQton Community Care:
Community Care is concerned about a safe and accessible passage to the
building. With the addition of the overflow parking area and clear markings on
the pavement, this should alleviate some of the problems. There has to be an
overall coordination within the Centre to avoid major events occurring at the
same time.
Bowmanville Tennis Club:
They have reviewed the proposed parking lot expansion and have no concerns
about it. They have rlilquested further information if and when the paving will
occur since it will impact on their tennis program.
2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the discussions over the summer, Staff is recommending the following:
1. That the expansion of 30 parking spaces be approved at the south side of
the Centre and along the west side of the driveway (see Attachment No.
2).
2. That consideration be given to incorporating up to nine spaces in the front
of the building property as bump-in spaces (see Attachment No.4).
3. That an alternative hard surface material be considered in lieu of asphalt
for the driveway leading into the proposed parking area.
It is still the intention of Staff, from the earlier report, to improve the overall
circulation of vehicles on the site. By creating a one-way entrance and a one-
way exit, the overall vehicular accessto the building will be improved.

REPORT NO.: OPD-02-01
PAGE 4
3.0 CONCLUSION
The recommendations contained in this report address most of the issues that
were raised by the various groups and agencies. The Clarington Older Adult
Association will get an additional thirty new spaces, with the potential expansion
of another nine spaces when the road is reconstructed with the bump-ins. Also,
during the reconstruction of Concession Street in 2002, there will be provisions
for bump-outs, which would create some parking spaces that could be utilized for
visitors at the Beech Centre.
The proposed parking area will not affect the green space immediately west of
the building. Staff will ensure that additional plant materials will be included in
the contract to help buffer the hard surface from the passive play area.
Concerns by the other tenants will be addressed when the parking lot is repaved
with the new pavement markings. Communications with all tenants to deal with
the peak demands will have to be dealt with regularly to ensure a safe and easy
access and exit from the building. The Clarington Older Adult Association must
playa leadership role in ensuring the safety of all patrons at the Centre.

No. 10: Correspondence from Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association, dated April
21,2001
2.0 BACKGROUND
2.1 Early last year, the Clarington Older Adult Association (COAA) appeared before Council
expressing concerns about the number of parking tickets given to patrons who were parked
on Beech Avenue and were using the Claringron Beech Centre.
2.2 Since the opening of the Centre, and prior to the Municipality purchasing the building, cars
were allowed to park on either side of Beech Avenue while attending events at the building.
2.3 The existing parking lot otTers 52 parking spaces (Attachment No.2). With Community
Care, the Clarington Older Adult Association and the Lions day care staff, approximately 15
parking spaces are utilized daily. The daily programs of the COAA and Community Care
arc putting an additional demand of 40 to 50 parking spaces. Tuesdays and Thursdays are
the busiest days for seniors' activities and membership over the past two years has doubled.
According to the COAA, some seniors are not participating due to the parking difficulties on
the site. As can be seen, when a special function is scheduled during the day, in conjunction
with the regular daily programs. the existing parking facilities are inadequate.
2.4 As a result of the need for parking, and until a solution can be found, it was agreed that
parking would be allowed on the east side of Beech Avenue only. "This allows
approximately 15 parking spaces,
2.5 Staff met with By-Law, Traffic, the COAA and the Fire Department to determine if a
solution could be found. It was reported that, upon investigation, the Clarington Fire
Department raised concerns about the utilization of the pumper if vehicles werefarked on
, . 70

REPORT NO.: WD-20-01

either side of Beech Avenue (Attachment No.1). As a result, Staff initially only
investigated on-site alternatives to accommodate the parking demands of the building.
2.6 Staff met with representatives from the Old Bowmanvi:\e Neighbourhood Association,
Bowmanville Tennis Club, Clarington Older Adult Association and the two Councillors
representing this area on Friday, May 11, 2001. Many questions were raised and further
discussion is required in terms of the number of proposed parking spaces, on-street parking
and alternative surface treatments. All parties agreed to meet further to discuss the
requirements and location of additional parking.
3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT
3.1 The goal to resolving the parking problems at the Clarington Beech Centre is to create an
additional 40 parking spots to meet existing programming needs. There is no suitable
location to accommodate the parking on any nearby streets or parking facilities. The south
radius of the driveway along the west side can be utilized to add approximately 7, parking
spots with little difficulty (see Attachment Nos. 2, 3 and 5). If parking was allowed to
continue on one side of Beech Avenue, an additional 15-17 spots would be available,
however, the concerns of the Fire Department have to be addressed. Further discussions
will be held with the Fire Department to review their special equipment needs.
3.2 Staff would also recommend reconfiguration of the existing parking lot, to allow for a more
accessible route to the building in case of emergency. Staff, in consultation with the Fire
Department, would remove four (4) parking spaces near the tennis court to access the rear of
the Centre.
3.3 Staff became aware in mid April of several vehicular incidents in the parking lot at the
Centre. The parking space between the south row and the first row to the north is very
limited. It is recommended that we reassign the five parking spaces along the south of the
lot and eliminate three spots to accommodate a bigger aisle size. Staff would also
recommend one-way entry and one-way exit to accommodate the traffic concerns at this
location.

REPORT NO.: WD-20-01

3.4 Options Under Consideration:
I) The widening of Beech Avenue is not possible to allow parking on both sides of the
street.
2) Expansion of parking areas on the existing property:
i) West of the existing tennis court - As shown in Attachment No.4, parking
for an additional 33 cars can be accommodated by eliminating the existing
garage unit located immediately north of the tennis court. The garage is '
being used for some storage by the tennis club and the COAA. A connection
to Elgin Street was considered but due to the shallow sewers, this would
include a significant amount of sewer and road reconstruction. The play
structure would be relocated to immediately west of Beech Avenue, with
appropriate walkways, landscaping, benches etc.
ii) South of the existing tennis courts - As shown in Attachment No.5, parking
for an additional 39 cars can be accommodated in the existing open space
area. This area is not used for any purpose and would not inconvenience the
programming of the building. Special consideration to landscaping would
certainly provide adequate buffer to the adjacent residents. This area would
be secured by the COAA and used only when overflow conditions are
required. This area has been known to be a gathering area for youth and may
pose additional problems.
iii) Expand parking into the existing tennis court - The COAA assumed the
lease that was made between the Bowmanville Lions Club and the
Bowmanville Tennis Club. The lease expires in 2008; however, notice can
be given one year in advance. The courts have existed at the Beech Centre
since the 1940's and the Tennis Club has fmanced the court resurfacing,
fencing, lighting, equipment etc. There is no question that the Bowmanville
Tennis Club offers a high quality program to Clarington. By utilizing the
tennis courts, an additional 47 parking spaces can be created (Attachment
No.6).

REPORT NO.: WD-20-01

iv) The COAA may consider discontinuing various programming opportunities.
This will impact on the fmancia11edger at the Beech Centre. If this option is
approved. they will be definitely requesting increased support from Council
to offset their daily operations.
3.5 Clarington Older Adult Association
The Association has worked with staff in reviewing the various alternatives. At their Board
meeting of Friday, April 6, 2001, the option to develop the property directly behind the
building on the south side was selected as the best alternative (see Attachment No.8). They
are requesting that a roadway connection between the proposed parking and the existing
front driveway be made to allow for improved circulation. Staff are not recommending this
due to the two mature trees that may be damaged or destroyed from the construction of the
roadway.
3.6 Bowmanville Tennis Club
The Tennis Club has reviewed the alternatives and is in support of the recommendations to
increase parking other than utilizing the tennis court areas. The Bowmanville Tennis Club
is opposed to the altemative of utilizing the tennis courts for parking and if that is the
preferred option, they would like to appear before Council to discuss why this should not be
considered.
3.7 Old Bowmanville NeiclIbourhood Association
Staff met with representatives of the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association. They
are opposed to anyon-site hard top parking that would result in the minimization of green
space at the Beech Centre. They have suggested parking on the street and parking on the
lawns at the Beech Centre. Liability is a concern, as presented in the letter from the
Clarington Fire Depanment, with regard to continued on-street parking (see Attachment No.
I), and the second suggestion is not recommended due to ongoing grounds repairs that may
be required and the possible confusion with informal parking.
3.8 Existing Parking Lot
If Council approves the proposed parking lot expansion, staff are recommending that the
existing parking lot be repaved since it IS m poor condition. The expansion and
705
710
REPORT NO.: WD-20-01
PAGE 6
reconstruction of the parking lot would be recommended in the 2002 Capital Budget. The
estimated cost for this project is $225,000. Parking would be allowed at least on the east
side of Beech Avenue until the expansion is completed.
4.0 CONCLUSION
4.1 In review of all the options identified in this report, the alternative that best accommodates
the needs of the Clarington Older Adult Association to meet their programming
requirements is to incorporate additional parking on the south side of the existing tennis
courts. The COAA, with municipal staff, will coordinate meetings throughout the next three
months with the Bowmanville Tennis Club and the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood
Association to review on-site parking opponunities and design tender preparation. The
COAA will be appearing before Council in September to ask for approval and to establish a
tender work schedule in order to minimize their programming inconvenience and the
potential loss of revenue.
4.2 In Addendum to Report TR-22-01, Public Works set out its reasons for inclusion of the
Beech Avenue and Lowe Street storm sewers. Recognizing that this report, WD-20-01,
recommends approval in principle of the expansion of parking facilities at the Clarington
Beech Centre, Public Works recommends that Council approve the Beech Avenue and
Lowe Street storm sewers as a provisional item. The proposed storm sewer works on Beech
Avenue provide a potential outlet for any drainage works that may be required at the
Claringron Beech Centre. Should the works be constructed independently, or as part of a
smaller contract for the Clarington Beech Centre, it is estimated that the costs could be
increased by up to 25% ($10,000 - $12,000).
4.3 Representatives of the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association continue to question
the need to disturb Beech Avenue twice with respect to trench construction. It is estimated
that the construction for this single leg of storm sewer will last I to 2 days, certainly no
longer than I week, including the minor pavement restoration, which is necessary. In
addition, it is noted that tree roots will not be disturbed more than once for the shallow storm
sewer installation, restricted to the west side of the Beech Avenue road surface.

To: Fred Horvath
Property Manager
This letter is in follow-up to our discussion that we had at the Beech Centre on May II th regarding parking
on Beech Ave.
After viewing the simation. I had some concerns with the overall width of the road and the parking of
vehicles on either SIde. On May IS" I took both our Pumper:md Aerial from station I down to Beech Ave
and positioned them 10 see exactly how much space would be required to adequalely ser up for fighting a
fue on Beech Ave should the need arise. I took some pictures and attached them to this letter for your
viewing.
Picture # I shows you exactly how much clearance is available for our Pumper when we stop beside a
vehicle parked on the Easl Side of the road. (Approximately 30 inches per side)
Picture # 2 shows you how much room is needed for us to sel up our Aerial. The distance required to set
up the outriggers. which allows us to sel up the ladder is 17ft 4 V. inches. This picmre clearly shows you
that we need the whole road.
Picmre # 3 shows you the Aerial truck semp with the view of a parked car in the background. As you c:m
clearly see. we could not semp our Aerial truck if thaI car was parked immediately beside us.
Picmre # 4 shows you a rear VIew of picmre # 3.
I trusl thaI this infonnanon will aid you with your parking matter.
Yours truly

BE: CLJUUNGTON BEECH CENTRE - PARKING
Fred, at the Board of Directors meeting on Friday April 6'h, they requested I
contact you concerning the above (parking). The Board has discussed the
following options and has picked the option they feel meets the needs of the
Centre and will have the least impact on the Tennis Club and neighbors.
· First Choice- Develop the property directly behind the building and on the
south side. Vehicles will enter the lot on the northwest corner of the facility
beside the tennis court and leave through a new exit at the southend of the
building. This location along with parking on Beech Avenue will provide the
spaces required at this time. This option requires the doors having some type
of locking system on them that will allow them only to be opened in an
emergency:
· Second Choice- Develop the site west of the tennis court. To do this the
playground would have to be relocated and this location will not provide
enough spaces to meet our requirements. If this option was considered the
storage building on the north side of the tennis courts would have to be
removed and that space would be an entrance to the parking lot. Like our first
choice, we would still require parking on Beech Avenue to meet our needs.
· Third Choice- Develop the location where the tennis courts are located. Like
o,1?' other options. we would still require parking on Beech Avenue.
With all of the above options we would like to have more spaces provided on the
circular driveway as well. The safety of our members and all others using the

facility could be improved if all traffic entered via the north entrance and exited at
the south driveway.
The parking issue was known when the Municipality purchased this site and would
have to be addressed at some time. The Older Adult Association is growing, more
members are participating in activities all the time and the need for more parking
spaces has increased as well. It is very important to have parking spaces available
on site, as some of our participants are not able to walk very far and some have
refused to participate due to the problem, we do not always have parking
available. .
Fred, my letter of November 13th 2000 to you provides our best estimate of the
parking spaces needed for this year. The Board of Directors realizes it is not
practical or possible to always have enough spaces on site, but with option one,
we could meet the daily needs on most days.
The existing lot needs resurface since this was not done at the time of construction
and renovations in 1997.

The Board would be pleased to meet with you at any time Fred to discuss this if
you have any questions or concerns. They would like to resolve the parking issue
as soon as possible. We understand the neighbours have concerns about the
parking at the Centre and we would be pleased to meet with them and the Tennis
Club as well.

Fred, enclosed is a copy of the dates the Centre is open ln 2001 and what our
parking requirements will be. The boxes highlighted in ted are dates and times
we have a shortage of parking spaces.
Please note the following:
· The number of places required for Nursery School Staff, Community Care Staff
and COM employees is approximately IS.
. The Centre is very busy on Tuesday and Thursday.
· We have not considered parking needs for the Tennis Club in this report.
· Now on some occasions when Community Care Staff return from lunch, alllhe
parking spaces are occupied.
· The weekends shown for next year are booked firm. December is the only
month not booked firm at this time.
Fred, 1 know there is no quick fix and I hope this will help and give you an
overview of the parking needs. Please feel free to call me if you have any
questions or conc,erns.

21 April 2001
Mr. Fred. Horvaeh
~r. operaeiolUl
Municipality of Clarington
penr Mr. Horvath:
In rcasponse to the m_ting this past Tl.1escia.y between YOUrs.lf ancl
-=ers of the olel BOllR1\anville Neighbourhoocl Association (0IlHA1, I
aID WZ-iting 1:0 indicate our concerns, cbserval;10%1s aucI.
recommenciations about parking a~ the Clarington Seech Centre.
We rB1ll&in COlllllli.ttacl to the retention of gnen space at the
Clarington Seecn Centre ancl are Opposed to any plans to pave over
thD aroa behinel the Centre for aclditional parking.
Green space ia at an absolute premium in the neighbourhood. The
only oCher comparable space in the area is Central Public School
aad it is not unreasonable to expect it to come under development
PZCSBU:Z:-S in the future.
Tho cnanging interests and. requirement:s of the ageing baby boOlll
goneration will likely transform their expectation of services at
the Clu1ngton Baech Centre in the years ahead. The need for
outdoor spacElS for active recreation, 6uch as 'that currently
Providecl by the tennis CCU~6, will only increase.
On the matter of the Centre's increased Use, residents on the
atrcec have made thair own observ~tions that there appears little
difference in the actual parking associated lIiith the currel:l.e cenere
Use and its past history as the Lions Centre, W. believe that :his
view should be respected because, though they are admittedly
;anecdotal conclusions, residents have witnessed both uses. 'l"hey
hava littla reason to mis-state the increased parking on their
street if such exists.
Several residents haVe undertaken their own survey of parking in
the areA and their gene:z:-al cbservation i. that the problem is
concentrated in certain time periods. leading to the possible
conclusion that :he issue may be one of event and servicss,
schedUling at the centre, or of a conflict between the needs of
staff and OCcaSional visitors. We believe this warrants additional
study.

The obvious solution 1:1 for Centra pal:rons to p~k on S8ech Avenue
IUICi neighbouring sereet:s. This idea however has ceen brouqht into
question 'ay conclusions in the r1Icently released Old. Bowmmvilla
NeigllbourJ::.cod Streeeacape and. Infrll.str=ture Implementa.Uon Pl&ll. (&
March 2001) .,lUch concludes that parkil1q on Beech. Avenue poses a
potent:ial firefightinq problem by prevantil1q pumper trucka from
satting up aerial lacid.ars in the event of a residential fire,
OUr response to this Report (attached) has raised. tnazl.y conce:tnJI
with this conclusion. The essence of our argument 1. that such a.
conclusion fails to recogtU.ze that an old ne1gbbourhQod. requires
firefighting strategies, resources aud technclogy appropriate to
ita Condition.
We strcln!ily celieve that fer a variety of reasona cited in CUJ:'
reoponse to ths ~ve Report, that parking on Seech. Avenue, without
tha consequent widening of the street, is absolutely 8.sent1al.
AcCordingly we recommend that,
1. Overflow parking needs at the Centre be met. 'ay on-street parking
on Beech AvenUE! and. cm Surrcund.iug streets.
2. The issue of appropriato fire fighting' on Beech Avenue b8
Ual~lld in a mare cClllprehensive faahien than is fOWld in the above
Report.
:1. OBNA review in concert with the MUnicipality minor design
alt:erat.ions to the southeast aide of the building to accOllllllOdate
perhaps eight new paJ:'king sites.
~. The Centre consider the occasional use of the grassed. aUJ:'face
bGind the Centre as a telllporary parking site for staff housed in
the Cantre at such time as an overflow need. is predicted..
5. The Centre study it.ll own schGdulinq and. bOOking po11ciea for a
maro even distribut.ion of building use ami review with the
MUnicipality any impact this may have on the Centre's ability to
maet its financial needs.
6. This issue be deferred for action to next year (2002) to allow
time to review ope ions and develop a solution that meees both the
C8r1tre' S and the local residents' needs.
Wo are concerned that the Centre may view residents as overly
obatructionist and not supportive of their interests. In response
we note our active and sUccessful effort :0 restere parking' on
Beech Alrenue last year after Cantre patrons ware unfa.irly ticketed.
