a) revise the timeline for municipalities to bring their official plans into conformity
with the revised Growth Plan, to only take effect after the Ministry has approved
and released the standard methodology for the assessment of land needs and
that the process for developing the standard methodology for the assessment of
land needs include proper ground:-truthing and consultation with municipalities,
conservation authorities and other key stakeholders;
b) maintain the intensification target at 40 percent for the 905 region;
c) identify a mechanism to prevent strategic growth areas (e.g. high density
residential or high intensity mixed-use) from being down designated to support
intensification opportunities that may not be realized within the time horizon of
the Growth Plan;
d) consider the potential long-term development and intensification of its major
transit station sites by:
• introducing policies that require the introduction of alternative station designs that
are more compact, diversified and integrated with their surroundings; and
• expediting investment in alternative modes of transportation (i.e., local transit,
cycling, walking, carpooling) to access such locations in order to limit the amount
of surface parking in the future;
e) remove the words "or stop" within the revised definition of the term "Major Transit
Station Area", so that only high order transit station areas are included in the
intensification calculation;
f) revise Schedule 5 (Moving People-Transit) in the Growth Plan to reflect the
proposed CP-Belleville rail connection to the new Seaton community, and the
"possible" rail extension (CP-Havelock line) towards Peterborough;
g) identify employment lands of provincial significance within the Growth Plan, such
as the Seaton Employment Lands, and actively facilitate the marketing, servicing
and development of those lands in concert with other development contemplated
by the Growth Plan;
h) maintain the current Greenfield area density target of 50 residents and jobs
combined per hectare, or consider developing a more context sensitive approach
for 905 communities, with particular attention to factors such as urban structure,
availability of public transit and other amenities, built form character, place-
making, housing mix and affordability;
i) conduct a financial analysis of the impact of the intensification and density
targets on municipal infrastructure and service delivery;

certain criteria, to include existing cultural.and educational uses;
k) move forward with the development of the Transportation Planning Policy
Statement outlined in the Greater Toronto Transportation Authority Act, to clarify
the role of the Big Move in relation to the Growth Plan, and to include a
statement that acknowledges this relationship within the Growth Plan. This
would help ensure that the integration and coordination of transportation
infrastructure planning and land use planning at local, Regional and Provincial
levels are properly acknowledged in the Plan;
I) as part of supporting the new Growth Plan, investigate financial tools (e.g.
parking space levy, fuel tax, sales tax, payroll tax, vehicle kilometers travelled
tax, highway tolls, development charges, land value capture, property tax,
development charges, fare increases, etc.) and funding opportunities to enable
the timely implementation of transportation and other municipal infrastructure and
services;
m) base the mapping of the "natural heritage system" upon approved watershed
plans, and that the Province collaborate with conservation authorities to develop
a standard methodology for mapping of the "natural heritage system";
n) build on the Land Evaluation and Area Review (LEAR) analysis that was
completed by the Region of Durham for mapping the "agricultural system", and
that the mapping process include the application of standard methodology,
proper ground-truthing and consultation with municipalities, conservation
authorities, the agricultural community and other key stakeholders;

documents listed as Supplementary Directions to the Growth Plan;
p) revise the timeframe for municipal official plan conformity to commence upon
completion of the documents listed as Supplementary Directions to the Growth
Plan; '
q) as part of the Supplementary Direction for implementing the Growth Plan, identify
and develop programs to attract and retain workers and businesses to achieve
the growth plan targets, and to foster the development of balanced communities
(for example, such measures could include, investing in, or subsidizing training
programs that will ensure that municipalities have the resident labour force to
attract new businesses in targeted sectors; eliminating or reducing tolls for trucks

and promoting further employment growth in the 905 Region);
r) provide more guidance regarding the type and extent of buffer planning
necessary to protect existing agricultural practices, by minimizing and mitigating
impacts of new adjacent urban development on the Agricultural System;
s) retain the existing policy in the Greenbelt Plan that permits the minor rounding
out of hamlets at the time of municipal conformity, and modify the policy to read
as follows: .
"Outside of specialty crop areas, minor expansion of Hamlet boundaries may be
permitted only through a municipal initiated study, that must address matters
such as the merits and appropriate scale and form of development; the
protection and enhancement of key natural heritage and hydrologic features and
functions; the impact on agricultural lands and agricultural operations; soft and
hard servicing needs, constraints and solutions; and the rationale for any minor
expansion to the hamlet boundary";

Greenbelt Plan (policy 3.4.5.2a) that prohibits the consideration of a municipally
initiated settlement area expansion proposal to proceed on the lands bounded by
the CP Belleville Line in the south; the York-Durham Town line to the west; and
West Duffins Creek to the east (referred to as the Cherrywood Area Lands);
v) retain the existing policy in the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan that
permits the minor rounding out of rural settlements, and modify the policy to read
as follows: ·
"New lots may be created in Countryside Areas for the following purposes only,
and subject to Parts Ill and IV:
Minor expansion of Rural Settlements designated in the applicable official plan
as appropriate for this type of lot creation, only through a municipal initiated
study, that must address matters such as the merits and appropriate scale and
form of development; the protection arid enhancement of key natural heritage
and hydrologic features and functions; the impact on agricultural lands and
agricultural operations; soft and hard servicing needs, constraints and solutions;

2015 Coordinated Review of Ontario's Land Use Plans
City of Pickering Comments on the Proposed Changes to the
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, the Greenbelt Plan, and the
Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan
Recommendation
1. That the comments in Report PLN 15-16 on the proposed changes to
Ontario's Land Use Plans be endorsed, and that the Province be
requested to:
a) revise the timeline for municipalities to bring their official plans into
conformity with the revised Growth Plan, to only take effect after the
Ministry has approved and released the standard methodology for the
assessment of land needs and that the process for developing the
standard methodology for the assessment of land-needs include proper
ground-truthing and consultation with municipalities, conservation
authorities and other key stakeholders;
b) maintain the intensification target at 40 percent for the 905 region;
c) identify a mechanism to prevent strategic growth areas (e.g. high density
residential or high intensity mixed-use) from being down designated to
support intensification opportunities that may not be realized within the
time horizon of the Growth Plan;
d) consider the potential long-term development and intensification of its
major transit station sites by:
• introducing policies that require the introduction of alternative station
designs that are more compact, diversified and integrated with their
surroundings; and
expediting investment in alternative modes of transportation (i.e., local
transit, cycling, walking, carpooling) to access such locations in order to
limit the amount of surface parking in the future;
e) remove the words "or stop" within the revised definition of the term "Major
Transit Station Area", so that only high order transit station areas are
included in the intensification calculation;
f) revise Schedule 5 (Moving People-Transit) in the Growth Plan to reflect
the p'roposed CP-Belleville rail connection to the new Seaton community,
and the "possible" rail extension (CP-Havelock line) towards
Peterborough;
g) identify employment lands of provincial significance within the Growth
Plan, such as the Seaton Employment Lands, and actively facilitate the

marketing, servicing and development of those lands in concert with other
development contemplated by the Growth Plan;
maintain the current Greenfield area density target of 50 residents and
jobs combined per hectare, or consider developing a more context

move forward with the development of the Transportation Planning Policy
Statement outlined in the Greater Toronto Transportation Authority Act, to
clarify the role of the Big Move in relation to the Growth Plan, and to
include a statement that acknowledges this relationship within the Growth
Plan. This would help ensure that the integration and coordination of

address matters such as the merits and appropriate scale and form of
development; the protection and enhancement of key natural heritage and
hydrologic features. and functions; the impact on agricultural lands and
agricultural operations; soft and hard servicing needs, constraints and

.Memo
July 6, 2016
Plan-of Subdivision 40M-1390 provided for the future development of six blocks. These blocks
were to be merged with the adjacent lands to the south to form fully developable lots fronting onto
what would become the extension of Gablehurst Crescent.
The registration of Plan of Subdivision 40M-2565 provided the lands required to complete these
lots, however two of the lots within Plan 40M-2565 were larger than what was originally proposed
when Plan 40M-1390 was registered.
Accordingly, Block 115, Plan 40M-1390 requires exemption from the part lot control provisions of
the Planning Act, so that:
(a) Part Block 115, Plan 40M-1390 being Parts 2 and 3, 40R-28952 can be conveyed with Block
114, Plan 40M-1390 to create a fully developable lot when consolidated with Block 19, Plan
40M-2565; and
(b) Part Block 115, Plan 40M-1390 being Parts 1 and 4, 40R-28952 can be conveyed with Block
116, Plan 40M-1390 to create a fully developable lot when consolidated with Block 20, Plan
40M-2565.
Attached is a location map and a draft by-law, enactment of which will exempt Block 115, Plan
40M-1390 from the part lot control provisions of the Planning Act thus permitting the division of
Block 115 for the purpose of merging Parts 1 to 4, 40R-28952 with adjacent lands to create two
developable lots. This draft by-law is attached for the consideration of City Council at its meeting
scheduled for September 19, 2016.

Blocks 117 and 118 are reserves located at the southerly and westerly limits of Gablehurst
Crescent within Plan 40M-1390. It was intended that these reserves remain in place until such
time as the adjacent lands were developed.
As the plan of subdivision relating to the adjacent lands has now been registered (Plan 40M-2565)
and the works within Plan 40M-2565 have commenced, it is appropriate to establish the reserve
blocks as public highway.
