FILE: SPA 2001-021
Recommendations:
It is respectfully recommended to Council the following:
1. THAT Report PD-071-01 be received;
2. THAT Council pass a by-law to authorize the Mayor and Cleric on behalf of the
Municipality to enter into an agreement with Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and
Clarington Roman Catholic Separate School Board respecting the transfer in escrow of
lands required for the portion of the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road shown in Attachment 1
which is located on lands acquired or to be acquired by the School Board in order to
implement this report;
3. THAT all interested parties listed in this report and any delegations be advised of Council's
decision.
1. BACKGROUND
1.1 During the review of the Municipality of Clarington Official Plan, staff of the Planning and
Development Department worked together with the Separate School Board in selecting a
future site for a Separate Secondary School. Lands located in Part of Lot 29, Concession 2,
former Township of Darlington were selected as the site for a future Separate Secondary
School in Courtice.
1.2 In the spring of 2001, representatives of the Planning and Development Department and the
School Board met to discuss developing the subject lands and the need for access to the
REPORT NO.: PD-071-01 PAGE 2
proposed new school site. Section 18.4.4 of the Clarington Official Plan states that
secondary schools shall have access to an arterial road. The subject lands have frontage on
Farmington Drive, and will have frontage on the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road shown on
Attachment 1, when this road is built. Vehicle access for a secondary school to Farmington
Drive, a collector road, would not conform with the provisions of the Official Plan.
Currently,the timing of construction of the Future Type'C'Arterial Road is unknown.
1.3 It was agreed by staff that temporary access to the proposed school could be located within
the alignment of the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road until the road is constructed. The
alignment for this road crosses through the School Board's land holdings and intersects with
Courtice Road just north of a residence located at 2252 Courtice Road (Attachment 1). It
was recommended by staff to the School Board to proceed with arrangements to acquire the
lands needed to gain access to Courtice Road, including completing an application to the
Land Division Committee to sever the subject lands. The entrance to the school from
Courtice Road will be abandoned when the Future Type'C'Arterial Road is constructed.
1.4 The School Board must secure immediate access to their site, and the Municipality must be
confident that the lands for the portion of the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road located on the
lands acquired or to be acquired by the School Board will be available to the Municipality
when the road is required to be constructed.
2. CONCLUSIONS
2.1 In order to provide immediate access to the School Board site, an access driveway will be
constructed on part of the alignment for the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road pursuant to site
plan approval and a site plan agreement.
2.2 In order to protect the Municipality's interests, it is recommended that the lands required for
the Future Type 'C' Arterial Road, to be located on lands acquired or to be acquired by the
School Board, as shown on Attachment 1 (including any interest of the School Board in the
storm water channel to be located on the future alignment of the Future Type 'C' Arterial
REPORT NO.: PD-071-01 PAGE 3
Road), be transferred in escrow to the Municipality for a nominal consideration free and
clear of all encumbrances and restrictions, prior to the approval of the site plan for the
proposed high school. The transfer will be delivered to the Municipality's solicitor to be
held by him in escrow until the Director of Public Works gives written notice to the School
Board that the lands described in the transfer are required for the construction of the Future
Type 'C' Arterial Road at which time delivery of the transfer to the Municipality will be
completed.
2.3 It is recommended that the Municipality will not require any financial contribution for the
Future Type 'C'Arterial Road in addition to the transfer of land referred to in paragraph 2.2.
It is also recommended that the Municipality engage a surveyor to prepare and deposit the
necessary reference plan describing the portion of the Future Type'C' Arterial Road referred
to in paragraph 2.2.
2.4 This report has been reviewed by the Public Works Department who concur with the
contents of this Report.
Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by,
Bin Newell, M.C.I.P., R.P.P. Franklin Wu,M.C.I.P., R.P.P.
