2. Background
2.1 On July 12, 2017 an application was submitted requesting that the Holding (H) Symbol be
removed from the property located at 3430 Trulls Road in Courtice.
2.2 The Holding Symbol on the subject property has been in place since the adoption of the

implementation, the Holding (H) Symbol was placed on all urban residential properties
zoned for development that had yet to be serviced.

3. Staff Comments
3.1 The Holding (H) symbol is a provision enabled by the Official Plan to ensure that certain
obligations have been considered prior to development and redevelopment of the lands.
This includes: servicing, access, protection of natural areas, measures to mitigate the
impact of development, submission of required studies, execution of agreements and any
other requirements as may be deemed necessary by Council including the
implementation of the policies of this plan.
3.2 The subject lot is an existing lot of record which had a single detached dwelling built in
1973. The single detached dwelling has recently been demolished and the property
remains vacant. In 2015, the applicant received approval from the Region of Durham to
divide the property into two parcels for single detached dwellings. The subject property is
adjacent to a newly developing community in Courtice however, is not within the limits of
the draft approved and registered subdivision.
3.3 There are no significant environmental impacts and the property is now fully serviced and
has frontage on Trulls Road which has been reconstructed to an urban cross-section.
3.4 Staff supports the removal of the Holding (H) Symbol.
3.5 All property taxes have been paid in full.
4. Concurrence
Not applicable.
5. Conclusion
In consideration of the comments noted above, approval of the removal of the "Holding
H)" symbol for the property located at 3430 Trulls Road in Courtice, as shown on the
attached By-law and schedule (Attachment 1) is recommended.
6. Strategic Plan Application
The recommendations contained in this report conform to the Strategic Plan.
