2. Background
2.1 On November 21, 2016 an application was submitted requesting that the Holding (H)
Symbol be removed from the property located at 3440 Trulls Road in Courtice.
2.2 The Holding Symbol on the subject property has been in place since the implementation
of the Corporation of the Town of Newcastle Zoning By-law 84-63 in 1984. At the time of
its implementation, the Holding (H) Symbol was placed on all urban residential properties
that had yet to be serviced.
3. Staff Comments
3.1 The Holding (H) Symbol is a provision enabled by the Official Plan typically used 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 since been demolished and the lot has been
vacant for more than 16 years. The applicant has applied to construct a semi-detached
dwelling which is permitted within the “Urban Residential (R1) Zone”. The subject
property is zoned "Holding-Urban Residential ((H) R1) Zone ". The lot conforms to the
minimum lot area and frontage requirements of the “R1” zone for a semi-detached
dwelling. The lot is at the edge of a newly developing community by the same owner.
However, the lot was not within the limits of the draft approved and registered
subdivision.
3.3 In this situation, there are no significant environmental impacts, 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 3440 Trulls Road in Courtice, as shown on the
attached By-law and schedule (Attachment 2) is recommended.
