property to be surplus property and setting out the reason why it should be
declared to be surplus property; and

transfer the real property, unless an appraisal is not required under the Act.

1.2 The property subject to this report is located on the west side of Haines Street south of the
Bowmanville Cemetery (Attachment 1) and is part of a 4.9 hectare (12.2 ac) property
owned by the Municipality. It has 50 metres (164 ft) of frontage on Haines Street and has
a depth of 100 metres (328 ft) for a total lot area of approximately 0.50 hectares (1.24 ac).
1.3 In 1999 Council endorsed, through report ADMIN-23-99, applications for official plan
amendment, zoning amendment and site plan approval being filed on the property in order
to permit a crematorium, chapel and ancillary uses. On December 6, 1999, the applications
were submitted by Dale & Lessmann on behalf of Ontario Independent Crematoriums
Limited. The Region of Durham approved the application for official plan amendment on
January 12, 2001. The rezoning application has been approved in principal subject to the
site plan agreement being registered.
1.4 Ontario Independent Crematorium Limited was originally proposing to lease the property
from the Municipality but has recently requested to purchase the lands. Before the subject
lands can be sold they must be reviewed in accordance with By-law 95-22 to determine if
they can be considered surplus.
2. COMMENTS
2.1 In consultation with the Director of Public Works and the Director of Planning and
Development, it was concluded that the entire land holdings are not required for Municipal
purposes. Although there are no immediate plans to expand the cemetery, the Director of
Public Works has advised that the balance of the lands (4.40 ha) could be used as an
expansion to the Bowmanville Cemetery when such need arises. The Director of Planning
and Development concludes that the lands have not been identified for any facility or
municipal purpose in the Clarington Official Plan. The lands had been designated for
General Industrial use but were recently designated Green Space. Section 14.5.2 permits a
crematorium, chapel and ancillary uses.

which have previously been declared surplus but not sold to date. These properties are as
follows:

· 4763 Highway 2, Part 1, lOR-2797 (former Newtonville Motel site)
. vacant lot on west side of Solina Road, Part Block 43, 40M-1897 (Westlake
subdivision)
The advertising of these properties will be in accordance with Municipal procedures and
a report will be presented to Council after all tender bids are received. Central Ontario
Appraisals has been engaged to appraise the property subject to this report to determine
the fair market value. The appraisal report will be completed prior to the tender bids
being closed.
3. CONCLUSION
3.1 It is recommended that a 0.5 ha portion of the lands at 1200 Haines Street be declared
surplus and offered for sale.
