(a) Reports PD-86-98 and PD-87-98 - Claret Investments Ltd. & Uvalde
Investments Co. (Courtice Heights Developments) - the purpose and effect:
. the proposed zoning by-law amendment would change the zone category of
the north plan of subdivision (DEV 94-067 and l8T-94027) from
"Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" to appropriate
zones to permit the development of a 151 unit plan of subdivision
containing 79 single detached units and a portion ofthe land required for a
parkette;
. the proposed zoning by-law amendment would also change the zone
category of the south plan of subdivision (DEV 92-033 and 18T-92014)
from "Agricultural (A)" and "Environmental Protection (EP)" to
appropriate zones to permillhe development of a liD unit plan of
subdivision containing 80 single detached units, 30 semi-detached units and
a portion of the land required for a public elementary school and a
neigh bourhood park.
.
Chris Conti, Conti Environmental Services, 10 King Street, Port Hope,
LIA 2R4 appeared before Committee as the Environmental Consultant representing
Friends ofthe Farewell. He stressed the importance of the FarewelllBlack Creek
Systems, a habitat for many species of plants and animals, and requested a
comprehensive review of the environment in this system and the impacts of all
potential development on that system. He indicated that upsetting one part of the
system will throw everything out of balance. Mr. Conti questioned the impact this
development will have on the water table and the differing viewpoints of the reports
submitted by Gibson and Golder. Mr. Conti contends that the applicant for the
proposal should be requested to provide information guaranteeing that the
mitigating factors will be successful. He noted that between this development and
the Birchdale site which was previously approved, 11 uncommon species will be
threatened and he questioned when will we stop threatening uncommon species,
The servicing of this area is not included in the municipality's 10 year forecast,
therefore, Mr. Conti holds that the development is premature.
Libby Racansky, 3200 Hancock Road, Courtice, LIE 2M] requested
clarification of the surrounding land uses as outlined in Reports PD-86-98 and
PD-87-98. She indicated that the location of the outflow from the future water
quality pond is still outstanding and voiced concerns with some aspects with Report
PD-23-93 and PD-25-95. Mrs. Racansky also questioned whether a Noise Analysis
Study had been completed as these subdivisions are in close proximity to the
proposed Highway 407 !Highway 40 I link. Section 6.2 of Report PD-86-98 states
that water temperature monitoring in the adjacent stretch of Black Creek has
indicated conditions too warm for brook or brown trout and Mrs. Racansky is
questioning why that is. She also questioned who will oversee the activities of this
development and urged that the concerns raised be addressed prior to any approvals
being given. Environmental consideration should be balanced with all other
considerations when review of this application is made. She questioned whether it
is fair to the residents south of Nash Road if flooding is to occur.
No one spoke in support of the application.

Bill Manson, 20 Clematis Road, Willowdale, M2J 4X2, Project Manager for
Claret Investments Limited & Uvalde Investments Co. indicated concurrence
with the recommendations contained in Reports PD-86-98 and PD-87-98. He stated
that staff confirmed that because this area is within the 1976 urban boundaries
outlined in the Official Plan it is not subject to Watershed Studies but additional
Environmental Impact Studies are required. To date a great amount of studies has
been completed on the area i.e., Comprehensive Environmental Studies,
Enviromnentallmpact Statements and Hydrogeological Studies. In answer to
Mrs. Racansky's questions, Mr. Manson indicated that the water quality and
detention pond will be located in the southeast corner of Nash and Courtice Roads
with the outfall continuing to be a small tributary running across Courlice Road and
meeting up with Black Creek near the Nantucket Development. The wet meadow
complex is not located on either plan of subdivision, however, Mr. Manson has
been advised that because of natural growth this area would be lost even if no
development were to occur. Because of the proximity to the proposed north/south
link of Highway 407/Highway 401, a Noise Study was completed which indicated
that the northern plan of subdivision will not be affected, however, in the southern
plan, some homes will require noise buffers to be installed. Any water concerns by
nearby residents will be addressed through the Regional Water Interference Policy.
