This zoning would permit the development of lots with minimum frontages of 13.5 metres and minimum areas of 400 square metres. The applicant proposes to sever the subject property in order to allow for the future development of two detached dwellings. A site plan showing the proposed severance is provided for reference (see Attachment #2). The applicant has recently submitted land severance application LD 35/04 to the Durham Region Land Division Committee. Zoning the property a category identical to that of the properties located on the east side of Fawndale Road provides the opportunity for future development that is compatible with surrounding lands, and maintains the design and character of the area. All matters of development, of concern to the City, can be addressed through the land severance process In order to ensure appropriate development, all requirements of the City will be included as conditions of approval for the related land severance application LD 35/04. These conditions are generally outlined in Appendix I, and will address requirements of the Development Control, Municipal Properly & Engineering, and any other additional comments received. These conditions will address matters such as frontage onto Fawndale Road, grading, architectural design and securities. The City's interests can be appropriately addressed and protected through the conditions of land severance approval, as outlined in AppendiX I to this report. By-law to be forwarded to Council The attached by-law, included as Appendix II to this report, implements Staff's recommendation to approve the requested 'S2' residential zoning.

(Block B, Plan M-1024) Southwest corner of Brock Road & Pickering Parkway 1800 Brock Road North City of Pickering Recommendation: That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 15/03, be APPROVED to add 120 square metre accessory retail store to the existing commercial automotive use, on lands being Block B, Plan M-1024, City of Pickering, submitted by Sunoco Inc. That the amending zoning by-law to implement Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 15/03, as set out in Appendix I to Report PD 12-04, be FORWARDED to City Council for enactment. Executive Summary: The applicant is requesting a change to the existing CNA-Commercial Automotive zoning on the subject lands to permit the establishment of a convenience retail use, associated with the eXisting gas bar facility, as an additional use on the site. The subject property is located on the southwest corner of Pickering Parkway and Brock Road (see Location Map, Attachment #1). The proposed convenience retail use associated with the gas bar will be compatible with the existing development of the subject property and consistent with the development of service stations with associated retail throughout the City of Pickering. Financial Implications: proposed development. No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the F;eport PD '~ 2-04 Subject: Sunoco inc. (A 15/03) Date: February20,2004 Page 23 Background: 1.0. Comments Received 1.1 At the November 20, 2003, Public Information Meeting Numerous residents appeared at the meeting to raise concerns regarding traffic safety issues associated with the proposed By-law amendment (see text of Information Report and Meeting Minutes, Attachments #3 and #4). 1,2 Written submissions following the Information Meeting Residents in the neighbourhood west of the subject property and business owners directly abutting the property expressed objection to the application. Along with individual submissions, a petition was submitted with approximately 300 signatures opposing the application (see Attachment #5). All submissions received cited variations of the following reasons for opposing the proposal: · Large volumes of traffic already associated with Sunoco Service Station and Tim Horton's; · Safety issues associated with increased traffic volumes; · On-site pedestrian danger associated with cars queuing at the Tim Horton's; · Already severe traffic issues caused by the redevelopment of the Metro East Trade Centre. 1.3 Agency Comments Veridian Connections No objections subject to the applicant fulfilling certain conditions prior to receiving a building permit (see Attachment #6); Region of Durham - The proposal is permitted by the policies of the Durham Region Official Plan; - Municipal water supply and sanitary sewer service are connected; - The Region has no objection to the proposal, but may impose further access control as a condition of future site plan approval (see Attachment #7). 24 Report PD 12-04 Subject: Sunoco inc. (A 15/03) Date: February 20, 2004 Page 3 1.4 City Departments Deveiopment ControE Municipal Property and Engineering - No objection; Fire Services - No objection; 2.0 Discussion No objection. The proposal complies with the City's Official Plan designation The City's Official Plan designates the subject property "High Density Area", within the Village East Neighbourhood. This designation permits, amongst other uses, retailing of goods and services. The proposed by-law amendment to add retail use (which would permit a convenience store) implements the City's Official Plan policies and contributes to the retail / commercial nature of the designation. Modernizing and Updating the service station to current standards Current zoning on the property limits the permitted use to an Automobile Service Station - Type 'A' and Restaurant Drive-Thru Take Out. This zoning was established in 1984 and does not fully implement the current Official Plan designation or provide appropriate flexibility of uses. Within the City of Pickering and throughout Ontario, service stations have evolved to now include an associated convenience store as a standard component of a gasoline retail outlet. Proposed development will not further disrupt existing traffic movements on or off the site A traffic report, prepared by the applicant's consultant, supports the proposal and concludes that the addition of an associated convenience store use will not further impact the already congested site. The report was reviewed by Municipal Property & Engineering staff who concur with the findings of the report. A retail use will not generate sufficient additional traffic to merit the refusal of the application based on safety and traffic requirements. A retail use, though minor, at approximately 50 square metres, is currently operating from the gas station 'kiosk' and does not appear to be impacting the function of the property. increasing the retai! / convenience floor space to 120 square metres will not ?nera~e sufficienf additio,~a! traffic to impact sits: fu,~ctio;~in¢. RepoK PD I2-04 Subject: Sunoco inc. (A 15/03) Date: February 20, 2004 Page 4 2,5 Both the Region of Durham and City Staff acknowledges that the current site conditions are not ideat in terms of traffic congestion and pedestrian and vehicle interaction. However, introduction of an expanded retail facility will require the reconfiguration of buildings on the site. This change will require site plan approval and will provide the opportunity to better address existing traffic conditions. Existing high traffic volumes will remain after construction of the proposed expanded facility, but should not worsen. The Site Plan Review process will address appropriate site functioning A Site Plan Application has recently been received by the City and has been reviewed at a Development Application Review Team (DART) meeting. Through the DART meeting it has been determined that the proposed site reconfiguration will assist in improving internal traffic problems by clearly defining drive-thru lanes, relocating the garbage enclosure, and generally formalizing traffic flow routes (see Attachment #2), The existing By-law requires that the site provide a minimum of 5 parking spaces. The applicant does not propose to provide additional parking spaces for the increased retail floor area. The consultant report indicates that additional parking is not required due to minimal increase of customers attending the site solely for shopping needs. Staff concurs with this position. On-site movement of vehicles may be improved through a revised site plan which the proposed 120 square metre development. However, any floor area increases over 120 square metres may result in traffic flow issues. As such, the By-law should restrict the area Of any retail / convenience use to 120 square metres. It is recommended that the application be approved and the amending by-law be forwarded to Council for enactment. APPENDIX: Appendix I: Draft By-law 26 , ,..po~ ~. PD 12-04 Subject: Sunoco inc.

Steve Lerner, Suncor Energy Products Inc., advised that the items to be added would be those similar to what is sold in most service stations. He further advised that new pumps are being installed that will provide the convenience of paying at the pump rather than having to enter the store, this speed up the process and alleviate some of the traffic problems. Paul Hill, Traffic Consultant, advised that a traffic study ahs been completed which concludes that 85% of the traffic is due to Tim Horton's. Reorganization of the site should help the traffic flow and lessen the traffic on Pickering Parkway. Preet Singh, 25 Rotherglen Road North, advised that this development will create more traffic congestion on Brock Road which will inevitably cause more accidents and back-up. Another convenience store is not required in the area and with the build-up of businesses across the street all needs are addressed. CarolYn Oliver, 1655 Pickering Pkwy., Unit 514, advised that there is a solid stream of traffic on Brock Road now and another convenience 'store is not needed which will just increase the problem. Raymond Ada, 1655 Pickering Parkway, advised of his opposition to the convenience store stating that the service station will loose business if the traffic congestion gets any worse. Percell Thompson, 1566 Alwin Circle, stated his opposition to the application adding that the traffic is already overly congested. Lynda Taylor, Manager, Development Review, advised that comments are still to come from Property & Engineering, Development Review and various agencies. Ne~ghbourhood Memo 'Sunoco Your proposed store is not a ~COll ' ven ence"! ! We, the undersigned, oppose the construction of a convenience store by Sunoco on their property at Brock Road and Pickering Parkway because: · there are already tremendous traffic congestion problems at the site involving both Sunoco and Tim Horton's customers; this congestion already sometimes endangers other motorists and pedestrians using Pickering Parkway and other adjacent streets; · customers will face potential danger while entering and departing the convenience store by being forced to navigate between automobiles awaiting service at Tim Horton's drive-through service; · construction of the larger retail complex at the site of the former Metro East Trade Centre already exaggerates traffic problems in the community, and this store will simply contribute to difficulties without delivering any substantial benefit to customers or the neighbourhood; ~, ~ ? ,~ T "-' ~- aCF-~ ~-,'~ T~--r.~: N-EI~HBOLFRHOOD . ~,,.xn~ STATr__,MENT 37 f* :~ time to see d~k, pm.,n~ ant ns affects on nmgnbom-hooas in a .rial! perspective that includes cause-and-effect consideration in ~ * gr~a~, detail. Sun Oil/Sunoco's proposed convenience store on their property at Brock Road and Pickering Parkway will contribute to further major traffic congestion and endanger pedestrians and drivers alike as a result. Safety will continue to be further compromised, with the potential for personal injuries and property damage escalating greatly. It is not a question of if accidents will happen but, as with the redesigned nearby intersection dealing with much greater traffic volumes and changes, only a question of how many accidents and how bad. Residents in the immediate area emotionally oppose the expansion of the retail cluster because there is no apparent advantage and numerous dangerous and frustrating results that will evolve from the development. Local politicians also oppose the development and police voice personal concerns about growing traffic hazards in the immediate area. It is time that politicians and business leaders in the community recognize the cause-and-effect results that follow decisions permiting development that everyone wants ... but which must meet the needs and desires of the larger community. The residential streets streaming off Pickering Parkway already suffer from higher traffic flow and dangerous driver complacency that is a result of the growing truck and automobile flow that accompanies growth. The Tim Horton's retail outlet akeady on the site daily creates stand-still overflow traffic at all hours of the day that unpredictably (1) stops traffic altogether on Pickering Parkway, (2) blocks traffic flow as a result, (3) often backs up traffic turning from Brock Road and (4) has repeatedly caused accidents and near-accidents that sometimes has involved pedestrians. 38 The o, " . r,~m.~ expansion, already underway in the expanding plaza property that once was the Metro ?' ~ ~ ~as~, Tracte Centre and Picketing Flea Market has created am~ flows ' * · tna~ move three lanes or" traffic westbound into ~o lanes coming eastboun~ ozT Pickering ParkWay. Completion of the construction on the site and the opening of the retail outlets will only expand these problems. 3g 40 PET[T[ON~ , .. AGAINST CONSTRUCTION.

Any suggestion, as stated by a consultant on behalf of the company, that there are no traffic problems associated with the property due to the Tim Hortons outlet other than peak periods is absOlutely wrong. The congestion, and resulting accidents and potential to personal injury, can and do occur at all hours of the day due to the existing traffic volumes. This neighbourhood is also enduring traffic problems brought about by the development of the First Pro shopping centre on the northeast comer of Brock Road and Pickering Parkway. These problems will be expanded by the Sunoco construction. There is also no visible need for the convenience store, other than great profit for the company. The neighbourhood must come first.

As it pertains to the application to place another convenience store at the aforementioned intersection, I humbly submit my disapprove. ~ have resided at my cra-Tent address for the iast five years and m the last two years, i have seen the Iraffic situation =orow to an tmm~ageable impediment. Oftentimes, it takes minutes to ieave the circle to go north unto Pickering ParkwaY. Outside of the inconvenience, the increased traffic poses a considerable risk to pedestrians, many of which are small children. Within the last six months I have heard of two accidents, involving motor vehicles, one involving a small boy, and have witnessed several close calls. I am wary of the safety of my own children, in regards to the seemingly growing vehicle abundance in the area. A~'~other convcnicnt store in the area would surely worsen the problem.

ORIGIN: Treasurer, Ajax Pickering Transit Authority AUTHORITY: The Municipal Act, 2001, as amended, and Regulations thereunder Report to Board 01-04 Subject: 2004 Interim Capital Spending Authority Date: February 16, 2004 Page 2 FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Adoption of interim capital expenditure appropriations does not constitute approval of a formal budget, but rather is required to provide funding authorization for the payment on such routine capital repair and maintenance accounts as may be necessary to maintain APTA's existing assets in a state of good repair for normal day-to-day operations of the Transit Authority. At the conclusion of the Budget process, all interim capital appropriations are nullified and replaced with the detail appropriations as apprOved by the Board and Councils. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Not applicable BACKGROUND: Each year, pending approval of the annual Capital Budget, it is necessary to provide expenditure authority respecting the payment of repair and maintenance capital accounts for the interim period from January 1 until the Budgets are adopted. Such authority is in the form of interim capital appropriations to meet estimated expense requirements of the authority. We are seeking approval to provide for interim capital spending authority for up to the first six months of 2004 or when the 2004 Budgets are approved, whichever occurs first. The amounts below represent 50% of the proposed capital amounts for 2004. Capital accounts that require interim spending authority to maintain APTA's existing assets in a state of good repair include the following: Street Signage and Concrete Pads: Midlife Vehicle Refurbishing: Replace Drivers' Seats: Transmission and Engine Rebuilds: Urgent Body Repairs: $ 5,000 100,000 * 13,000 80,000 30,000 Total 2004 Interim Capital Spending Authority: $ 228,000 * The Midlife Vehicle Refurbishing interim request of $100,000 provides for two of three proposed bus refurbishings being completed prior to 2004 Capital Budget approval. APTA requires the flexibility to send these buses at times that coincide with lighter demand for general fleet maintenance and at times that can accommodate a prompt turnaround by our suppliers. ?$ Report to Board 01-04 Subject: 2004 Interim Capital Spending Authority Date: February 16, 2004 Page 3 At the conclusion of the budget process, all interim capital appropriations are nullified and replaced with the detailed capital appropriations as approved by the Board and Councils of Ajax and Pickering.

Origin: AS the attached activity report indicates, PAW can boast that for the second. consecutive year no adoptable pets had to be euthanised. With the assistance of the general public and the local animal rescue organizations PAW was successful in finding a home for every adoptable pet taken in at the Animal Services Centre in 2003. Analysis: The adoption success of PAW is in no small measure attributable to a number of InltlaUves introduced by the PAW Committee to, ' promote and develop responsible pet ownership; and, o adopt out as many homeless animals as possible. The initiatives include, customer service training and development for the animal services staff to equip them with the skills required to provide qualib/animal services; the development of an animal services website to better promote and publicize animal services available to the citizens of the three communities; an advertising program to promote the importance of responsible pet ownership, publicize the plight of homeless pets~, find good, loving homes for unwanted pets and seek the public's assistance in combatting pet overpopulation; exploring new ways and means of improving communication and working relationships with local pet fanciers such as veterinarians,, pet store owners, animal shelter operators, rescue groups, etc.; to fine! good, iovino homes for nomeiess mots and to oromote ov~'F~ers~i:x establisi~in_~; -: pet foster program ~wc years, With the invaiuabie nejd ano snc~ [ocli an~ma, ressue groups PAW nas ~eer~ abie tc fino z nome ever~' homeless: adoptabie DeC taker, N/A Financial Considerations= N/A RECOMMENDATION OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE DATE MOVED BY SECONDED BY That Clerk's Report CL 11-04 regarding the proposed 2004 Animal Services Budget, be received; and That the Council of the Corporation of the City of Pickering hereby approves the 2004 Animal Services Budget as recommended by the Pickering-Ajax- Whitby Joint Animal Services Committee at its meeting of February 10, 2004. ?ICKE NG F POP T TO EX:EC T ¥ Report Number: CL i t-04 Date: February 20, 2004 ~ rorF~: Bruce Taylor, AMCT, CMM City Clerk Subject: 2004 Animal Services Budget Recommendation: That Clerk's Report CL 11-04 regarding the proposed 2004 Animal Services Budget bet received.

Executive Summary: The PAW Joint Animal Services Committee is recommending the approval of the Year 2004 Capital and Operating Budget for the Animal Services Centre in the amount of $753,300.00 of which Pickering's share is $249,244.84.

The City of Pickering entered into an Agreement with .Ajax and Whitby respecting the operation of the Animal Services Centre that allocates operating expenses on a per capita basis and capital expenses on an equal basis. Therefore, in 2004, Pickering is responsible for 33.08% of the total operating costs of $732,300.00 being $242,244.84 and is responsible for 33.33% of the total capital costs of $21,000.00 being $7,000.00 for a total of $249,244.84. The 2004 Animal Services budget, including current and capital expenditures is an increase of 6.3% over 2003.

That the draft by-law to licence and regulate hawkers and peddlers that is attached to Clerk's Report CL 13-04 be forwarded to Council for enactment. Executive Summary: The purpose of the proposed by-law is to ensure that hawkers and peddlers are operating safely and are not causing an unfair competition for permanent shop owners. Financial Implications: Approximately $1,500.00 in revenue from the issuance of licences. Background: Please be advised that Council passed By-law Number 4437/94 on June 6, 1994 to licence and regulate hawkers and peddlers. This By-law was passed at that time in an effort to control the establishment of "chip trucks" that were proliferating in various locations at that time. Although the goal of the By-law was accomplished at that time, over the years, conditions have changed and it is has now been proven that By-law Number 4437/94 does not provide sufficient regulations to govern the various types of hawkers and peddlers that are selling goods in the City today. Report CL 13-04 Hawkers and Peddlers February 27, 2004 Page 2 95 With respect to refreshment vehicles that are established at one location such as "chip trucks" and "hot dog carts", this by-law will restrict such operations to the following instances: to locations where the zoning by-laws permit the sale of food from that location where the operator of the "chip truck" or "hot dog cart" have the written permission of the property owner to locate their vehicle. · the vehicle and equipment within it that is used to sell the foodstuffs from complies with the regulations of the Regional Department of Health and Fire Department. · the licencee pays a fee of $250.00 per calendar year. This proposed by-law exempts catering trucks and other mobile vehicles such as the "Dickie Dee" that stop for very short periods of time because they are regulated under the Parking By-law which prohibits any food vehicle stopping on a road allowance for a period longer than 15 minutes. The proposed by-law will also restrict the sale of non-food items such as flowers, etc. to privately owned lands that are zoned to permit the sale of such items, where the permission of the property owner has been given in writing and upon the payment of a licence fee of $20.00 for each day of operation. Council will recall that the City has Special Legislation that prohibits the sale of goods from the road allowance and allows a Municipal Law Enforcement Officer or Police Officer to confiscate the goods being sold from a road allowance. Again, the main goal of the proposed by-law is to ensure that permanent restaurants and retailers do not face unfair competition from individuals who are able to purchase refreshment vehicles at very little cost and set them up at locations were they are able to attract customers that would normally patronize the permanent location. This by-law will also ensure that the owners of refreshment vehicles and.the sellers or retail goods such as flowers that are able to sell from a particular location are paying a licence fee that will be somewhat comparable to a property tax. The following hawkers and peddlers will be exempted from this by-law: · door-to-door salespersons · vendors in a flea market · persons raising money for a charitable organization · farmers who are selling their produce from their property · permanent businesses who are holding a sidewalk-type sale · vendors of fireworks because they are regulated under a separate by-law Like all licensing by-laws, the fine for contravening this by-law is up to $25,000.00 for individuals and up to $50,000.00 for corporations. 96 Report CL 13-04 Hawkers and Peddlers February 27, 2004 Page 3 Attachments: 1.
