Minutes - 2 - July 4, 1994 • PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D Before proceeding with this matter, the Chairman asked the Clerk to advise on the manner of notice. The Clerk advised that public notice for the rezoning application was sent by first class mail on or before June 3, 1994, 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 by June 7, 1994. This notice procedure is in compliance with Ontario Regulation 404/83. The Chairman announced that the Director of Planning and Development would describe the purpose and effect of the proposed amendment, then the objectors would be heard, followed by the supporters and the applicant. (a) Report PD -72 -94 - 970973 Ontario Limited - the purpose and effect of the application is to rezone the subject lands to an appropriate zone to permit the development of 123 residential units comprised of 40 single family dwellings, 3 triplex dwelling units, 20 quadruplex dwelling units, 60 on- street townhouse dwelling units and a 1.24 ha park. Roy Bruce, 17 Loscombe Drive, Bowmanville, L1C 3S8 - indicated that when development was previously considered on this site a petition with approximately 1000 signatures was submitted and that petition is still • relevant today. He stated that he is vehemently opposed to any development in this area - he opposed it in 1986, 1993, 1994 and will continue to oppose development on this site in the future. He requested that Council obtain the property for the creation of a park area. Dennis Kavanagh, 68 Spry Avenue, Bowmanville, L1C 3Y3 - addressed Committee in opposition to the proposed rezoning. Mr. Kavanagh quoted from the Draft Official Plan dated May 1994 which states in part: "the main purposes of this plan are: a) to foster the ... physical and social wellbeing of the residents of Clarington;" and indicated that destroying this area, the only green space area in downtown Bowmanville, is not conducive with fostering the social wellbeing of the residents. He stated that this is a small parcel of land for the large population which is being suggested in the proposal and represents irreversible encroachment on this environmental sensitive area. After quoting various sections of the Draft Official Plan, Mr. Kavanagh reiterated that the application fails to meet the guidelines of the plan and urged Council to stay within those guidelines. Nancy Armstrong, 19 Loscombe Drive, Bowmanville, L1C 3S8 - indicated that there is little green space left within the urban centre of Bowmanville and requested that the Municipality attempt to purchase the property for park land. She stated that the many animals, trees and fish living in the area should be respected and protected. Our children are being taught to be environmental friendly in the schools and she asked what type of example would be set for the children if this application is . allowed to go ahead. Luz, G.P.& A. Minutes - 3 - • PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D July 4, 1994 Marc Battle, 25 Hunt Street, Bowmanville, L1C 2W8 - submitted a petition signed by business people in Bowmanville who are opposed to the development. He stated that this is an important spot for the people of Bowmanville and requested that Council attempt to purchase the property and create a park area that all residents could enjoy. Evylin Stroud, 89 Little Avenue, Bowmanville, L1C 119 - questioned why a public meeting was being held when, as stated in Section 6.3 of Report PD- 72 -94, the Environmental Impact Analysis is still being reviewed by commenting agencies. Dwayne Tapp, 5 Spry Avenue, Bowmanville, L1C 3T2 - addressed Committee in support of the proposed development. He indicated that high density and mixed uses can assist the Municipality with planning its residential areas and, if not allowed, sprawled development will ensue. He stated that the proposed development provides an opportunity for compromise between residential areas and leisure areas. The development is a good example of the development which is envisioned in the Draft Official Plan as only 20% of the land is being developed. He indicated that there is no proof as to how density affects the environment. Rosemarie Humphries, Weston and Associates, 64 Jardon Drive, Unit 7, Concord, L4K 3P3 - addressed Committee on behalf of applicants. She • indicated that since the proposal was originally submitted the number of units has decreased but the density on the property has increased. She advised Committee that 75% of the land (totalling 23 ha) will be acquired by the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority for public open space use. A storm water management study has been completed which addresses the flooding concerns which some residents have raised. In referring to the Draft Official Plan, Map A3, Mrs. Humphries indicated that the proposal is a medium density range being 25 to 60 units per net residential hectare. She also indicated that the Regional Official Plan identifies the subject area as a living space area. Resolution #GPA- 424-94 Moved by Councillor Dreslinski, seconded by Councillor Hannah THAT Committee recess for 15 minutes. "CARRIED" The meeting reconvened at 10:55 a.m. Resolution #GPA- 425 -94 Moved by Councillor O'Toole, seconded by Councillor Scott • THAT the delegations of Brent Lavictoire and Penny -Ann Davidson be combined to allow for one 20 minute delegation.

Ms. Rowan spoke on behalf of Save the Oak Ridges Moraine (STORM) coalition which represents 15 citizen groups from across the moraine and for SAGA. Ms. Rowan submitted detailed comments and questions pertaining to the draft strategy for the Oak Ridges Moraine. (b) Brent Lavictoire, 12 Brown Street, Bowmanville, L1C 2P9 and Penny - Ann Davidson, 55 Church Street, Bowmanville, L1C 1S8 - addressed Committee with respect to Report WD40 -94, reconstruction of Church Street, Bowmanville. They showed a video which they have prepared comparing Church Street to both Queen and Prince Streets which indicated that the proposed width of Church Street will be greater than both of those streets. Also the distance between the houses and the sidewalk on Church Street will be much less then the houses on Queen and Prince Streets. A petition was submitted outlining several areas of concern, namely: 1. Sidewalks - on the north and south side of the road the margins of the sidewalk nearest the houses should remain at their current locations and be widened to a maximum of 1.2 metres (4 ft); 2. Four Way Stop Sign at George and Church Streets - a four way stop is requested for the safety of pedestrian traffic; 3. Width of Road - the proposed width (34 ft) curb to curb is grossly exaggerated and they urged Council to maintain Church Street as a two lane road; 4. Trees - requested that as many mature trees as possible be preserved; 5. Boulevards - requested that the boulevards be level with the sidewalks, not sloping to the curb; and 6. Hydro - they requested that the hydro lines be relocated under ground. Mayor Hamre left the meeting at this point and Councillor O'Toole assumed the Chair. (c) David Wing, 79 Church Street, Bowmanville, L1C 1S9 - addressed Committee with respect to Report WD- 40 -94. He indicated that it has been difficult to reach a consensus on the issue of the reconstruction of Church Street and it has caused a rift between neighbours. He stated that the road is in desperate need of repair and it is his opinion that property values will probably increase following reconstruction of the street. Mr. Wing advised that a lot of compromise has taken place already between the department of Public Works and the neighbours and he wishes to see this project completed in one form or another. (d) Dorothy James, 85 Church Street, Bowmanville, L1C 1S9 - addressed Committee with respect to Report WD -40 -94 and indicated support of Mr. Wing's presentation. L�� G.P.& A.
