Rose, Chief Planner, appeared before the. Committee to act as facilitator for the public portion of the meeting, explaining the process for discussion purposes as well as the order of speakers. 1. Information Report No. 01-18 City Initiated Official Plan Amendment: Information & Communication Technology Proposed Amendment 31 to the Pickering Official Plan OPA 17-003/P A public information meeting was held under the Planning Act, for the purpose of informing the public with respect to the above -noted application. D. Bhatt, Planner II, appeared before the committee and with the aid of a power point presentation provided information with regards to the City initiated Pickering Official Plan Amendment for Information and Communication Technology (ICT). He outlined the factors which led to this amendment when the CRTC declared that access to broadband Internet was a basic service. The City of Pickering was recognized as a top 21 Smart Community, therefore Council adopted a "Dig Once"standard, which established that conduit be included within all municipal rights-of-way for fiber optic cable. The proposed amendment supports the development of a robust information communication technology network and ensures that new development is able to connect to the ICT network. There were no comments from members of the public. A discussion period ensued with Members of Council seeking clarification to the installation of the new fiber optics cable and whether this would enhance the current services. P. Bigioni indicated that -this does not directly provide new provisions to the current services, but rather is the new standard for installation of broadband network cabling for all new subdivisions. It was noted that this is a land use policy required for any new draft plan of subdivisions and included in all Site Plan applications. 2.

McNeil, Planner, appeared before the committee and with the aid of a power point presentation provided an outline of the proposed application, indicating the location of the subject lands as well as the current land uses. The subject lands are currently zoned "M1-4" which permits uses such as light manufacturing plants; laboratory; and a warehouse. The applicant is requesting to rezone the areas subject to these applications to "S4", the same residential zone category as the abutting properties for a residential development of 9 detached dwellings. Mark Yarranton, KLM Planning, appeared on behalf of the applicant and noted their support of the report and that they would be available to respond to any questions raised. Ralph Vanderwel, 1545 Marshcourt Drive, appeared before the Committee to note his concerns regarding the previous environmental issues in this area. He stated that he has lived in the area for 29 years and is an original property owner. He mentioned that 3 months after they moved in, the residents on Marshcourt received a letter from the Ministry of Environment detailing environmental problems with the site where the homes were built and stated that it had undergone a contamination clean up. He stated he was concerned this could occur again with the new development and wanted to make the City aware. He noted many other concerns from the neighbouring aggregate gravel plant, such as noise and soil dust. He also collected and brought a sample of soil from the proposed development site which contained remnants of batteries from the previous auto wrecking yard. Discussion ensued with regards to MOE's clean up of the contaminated site, follow ups on compliance issues and full disclosure clauses for potential buyers. M. Yarranton mentioned that the applicant is working with the Region of Durham to complete the Phase 1 Environmental Assessment (EA) as well as undergoing a Phase 2 Environmental Soil Assessment (ESA) due to concerns expressed by surrounding property owners. He noted that the current EA and ESA standards have improved from 1988 and that the soil will be remedied to comply. He further noted that noise and air quality will also be reviewed to be within acceptable levels as per the approved standards of the City of Pickering and Region of Durham. The consultant noted that the applicant will complete his due diligence on the site and provide full disclosure in the purchasing agreements. C.
