City of Pickering
CFN 40223.03
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) staff has reviewed an application to amend the
zoning by-law on the above referenced lands and offer the following comments.
Background
The subject lands are located at Pine Grove and Woodview Avenue in the City of Pickering. It is our
understanding that the applicant is requesting permission to amend the zoning by-law in order to permit a
minimum lot frontage of 15.0 metres. This proposal will connect both the north and south portion of
Rockwood Drive.
Site Specific Comments
TRCA staff has reviewed the zoning amendment application and have determined that proposal does not
appear to affect any of TRCA's programs or policies. Further, the subject property is not located within a
Regulated Area pursuant to Ontario Regulation 166/06 (TRCA Regulation of Development, Interference
with Wetlands and Alteration to Shorelines and Watercourses).
Recommendations
In light of the comments above, we have no objections to the approval of zoning amendment Al 1/08.
We trust that this is of assistance. Please contact me should you have any further questions.
