Home My WebLink AboutPD 17-11 Cis p~ Report To Planning & Development Committee PICKERING Report Number: PD 17-11 Date: June 6, 2011 53 From: Neil Carroll Director, Planning & Development Subject: Request for Council's Permission to Develop through Land Severance Almont Homes Inc. 1790 Rosebank Road (Part Lot 31, Concession 1) City of Pickering Recommendation: 1. That the request made by Almont Homes Inc., to permit the division of the subject lands being Part Lot 31, Concession 1 (municipally known as 1790 Rosebank Road) through land severance rather than by draft plan of subdivision, be approved. Executive Summary: Almont Homes Inc., is requesting Council approval for the creation of six residential lots through land severance on a 2.5 hectare property located between Rosebank Road and Silver Maple Drive north of Foxwood Trail (see Location Map - Attachment #1). The proposal is to create six 13.4 metre residential lots, three fronting onto Silver Maple, Drive and three fronting onto Rosebank Road (see Applicant's Submitted Plan - Attachment # 2). The Pickering Official Plan requires that land capable of being divided into more than three additional lots be developed by a draft plan of subdivision rather than through severance, except where it is demonstrated to Council's satisfaction that a subdivision plan is neither appropriate nor necessary. A plan of subdivision is not necessary for the proposed development as the proposed lots will have frontage on fully serviced public. roads and no further roads are required as part of this development. It is recommended that the applicant's request to develop the subject lands through land severance be approved, as all requirements of the City can be appropriately addressed through conditions of severance approval. Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of this authorization to develop by land severance. Report PD 17-11 June 6, 2011 Subject: Request for Council's Permission to Develop Lands 5 through Land Severance Page 2 Sustainability Implications: No sustainability implications are anticipated as a result of this authorization to develop by land severance. 1.0 Background: Almont Homes Inc., is requesting Council approval for the creation of six residential lots through land severance on a 2.5 hectare property located between Rosebank Road and Silver Maple Drive north of Foxwood Trail (see Location Map - Attachment #1). The proposal is to create six 13.4 metre residential lots, three fronting onto Silver Maple Drive and three fronting onto Rosebank Road (see Applicant's Submitted Plan - Attachment #2). The, Pickering Official Plan requires that land capable of being divided into more than three additional lots be developed by a draft plan of subdivision rather than through severance, except where it is demonstrated to Council's satisfaction that a subdivision plan is neither appropriate nor necessary. 1.1 The applicant has submitted the required Land Severance application The applicant has submitted Land Severance Applications to the Region of Durham Land Division Committee (LD 032/11 to LD 036/11) to create the six proposed 13.4 metre lots, three fronting onto Silver Maple Drive and three fronting onto Rosebank Road. Staff has requested that the severance applications be tabled until Council has made a decision regarding the appropriate process for lot creation. 2.0 Discussion: 2.1 Creation of the proposed lots through severance is considered appropriate The proposed lots appear to comply with the minimum lot area and frontage requirements of the zoning by-law. A plan of subdivision is not necessary for the proposed development as the proposed lots will have frontage on fully serviced public roads and no further roads are required as part of this development. Any City requirements for developing the subject lands can be addressed through the Land Division process through conditions of approval. Among other conditions, the owner would be required to enter into an appropriate development agreement with the City to address matters typically included in subdivision agreements, such as above-ground and underground hardware relocation and/or installation, stormwater management, grading and drainage, road widening, access and entrances, fencing, parkland dedication, easements, and provision of securities. Report PD 17-11 June 6, 2011 Subject: Request for Council's Permission to Develop Lands through Land Severance Page 3 55 Although the creation of the proposed lots through Land Division is supported, staff reserve judgment on the proposed lot configurations until such time as the detailed review of the Land Division applications has occurred. It is recommended that the division of the lands proceed through severance. Attachments: 1. Location Map 2.
