Pursuant to the Planning Act, the Council of the Municipality of Clarington,
through its General Purpose and Administration Committee, is holding a Public
Meeting for the following applications:
(a) Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment - Part Lot 35, Concession 2,
Darlington - Robert Fu on behalf of 1205386 Ontario Limited; and
(b) Proposed Official Plan Amendment - Municipality of Clarington - Deferral
No. 14 Regarding Right-of-Way Widths within Hamlets and Central Areas.
The Deputy Clerk advised that the Clerk's Department sent publ ic notices for the
rezoning application by first class mail on or before September 19, 1997 to all
property owners within 120 metres of the subject property in accordance with the
latest municipal assessment record. In addition, notices were also posted on the
site prior to September 19, 1997. This notice procedure is in compliance with the
Ontario Regulation made under the Planning Act.
Public notice for the official plan amendment application was placed in the local
newspapers on or before October 1, 1997. This notice procedure is in
compliance with the Ontario Regulation made under the Planning Act.
The Chairman announced that the Director of Planning and Development would
describe the purpose and effect of the proposed applications, then the objectors
would be heard, followed by the supporters and the applicant.
(a) Report PD-143-97 - Robert Fu on behalf of 1205386 Ontario Limited - the
purpose and effect of the application is to rezone the existing plaza in
order to permit the development of an eating establishment in addition to
the other permitted uses within the (C2-1) Zone.
Alan J. Wilde, 83 Pinedale Court, Courtice, L 1E lC4, advised that he
lives directly behind the plaza and the balconies and decks of all of the
split bungalows are on the same level as the roof of the plaza. The large
exhaust fans located on the roof of the restaurant generate undesired
fumes and grease. Two bright spotlights also affixed to the side of the
plaza light up the residents' backyards during the night. He advised that
the residents have been in this location longer than the applicant and that
the approval of the application will totally take away from the residents'
quality of life.
No one spoke in support of the application.
Robert Fu, #401 - 3601 Victoria Park Avenue, Scarborough, M1W 3Y3,
advised that, due to customer demand, he will be applying for a licence
from the Ontario Liquor Control Board. He will not be operating a
restaurant, not a cocktail lounge. His hours of operation are 10:30 a.m.
until 11 :00 p.m.
