Study concluded that no changes are necessary to the urban/rural
boundary as currently identified in the Durham Regional Official
Plan and the Picketing Official Plan, and that minor additions
should be made to the ecological system boundary identified in the
Picketing Official Plan.
The Town of Pickering Official Plan be amended by:
Deleting text policy 3.20, Rural Study Areas (Rural
Lands) which reads as follows:
3.20
Town Council shall recognize as a Rural Study Area
on Schedule I, lands on the west side of the West
Duff'ms Creek, and,
shall eliminate the Study Area boundary upon
completion of an appropriate study that
reviews the boundary between the ecological,
rural, and urban systems in relation to the
area, considering current environmental, open
space and wildlife linkages, agricultural, social,
and economic conditions.
