REPORT TO EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Report Number: PD 14-05 Date: March 24, 2005 From: Nell Carroll Director, Planning & Development Subject: Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 16/04 Renata Trent 905 Dillingham Road Part of Lot 19, B.F.C Range 3 (Durham Condominium Plan 105) City of Pickering Recommendation: That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 16/04, be APPROVED as set out in the draft by-law attached as Appendix I to Report PD 14-05, to amend the existing zoning on the subject lands to add a body rub parlour as a permitted use on lands being Part of Lot 19, B.F.C. Range 3, (Durham Condominium Plan 105) City of Pickering. That the amending zoning by-law to implement Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 16/04, as set out in Appendix I to Report PD 14-05 be FORWARDED to City Council for enactment. Executive Summary: The applicant requests a change to the zoning by-law to add a body rub parlour as a permitted use to the lands located at the south-east corner of Quigley Street and Dillingham Road (see Location Map, Attachment #1). No alterations are proposed to the multi-tenant industrial condominium to accommodate the requested use (see Applicant's Submitted Plan, Attachment #2). The property is located in the area of the City, defined by Municipal By-law 5764/00, as an area where a body rub parlour use may operate, subject to obtaining zoning approval. The applicant has advised that they have operated from this property for the past five years and through discussions with Municipal Law Enforcement Services and Durham Regional Police Services, the City is not aware of any documented complaints respecting the use. It is recommended that the application be approved and that the draft by-law be forwarded to Council for enactment. Renata Trent (A 16/04) March 24, 2005 Page 2 Financial Implications: proposed development. No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the Background: 1.0 Comments Received 1.1 At the January 20, 2005 Information Meeting (see text of Information Report, Attachment #3) Public Comments tenants from the industrial condominium where present, but did not speak; - tenants submitted a list of issues and concerns with an attached petition signed by 11 tenants (see Attachment #4); 1.2 Agencies Applicant's Comments - no specific comments; applicant's solicitor spoke on their behalf; solicitor provided a written statement (see Attachment #5); Durham Region Planning Department Veridian Connections conforms with Regional Official Plan; municipal water supply and sanitary sewer are available; no Provincial interests identified; (see Attachment #6); no objection (see Attachment #7); 1.3 City Departments - no specific comments. 2.0 Discussion 2.1 Use and Compatibility 2.1.1 Proposed use conforms to the Pickering Official Plan The applicant is proposing to add a body rub parlour as a permitted use. The subject property is designated "Employment Area - General Employment" in the Pickering Official Plan. This designation permits the proposed use to be considered. Approval of the rezoning would conform with the Pickering Official and the Region of Durham Official Plan. Renata Trent (A 16/04) March 24, 2005 Page 3 ,9 2.1.2 2.1.3 2.2 2.2.1 2.2.2 The site is suitable for the proposed use The proposed use is compatible with the surrounding land uses. The industrial condominium building site currently provides a total of 66 parking spaces. Based on our parking calculation of 1 space per 56 square metres of gross leasable floor area for industrial uses (3010 square metres), the building requires 54 parking spaces. Therefore, due to the surplus of 12 parking spaces and offsetting hours of operation from regular business hours, the ability to share parking is possible. Furthermore, the application has received authorization from Durham Condominium Corporation 105 Manager, Joe Ross, allowing the submission of Zoning By-law Amendment - A 16/04, and Mr. Ross advises that he does not object to the rezoning (see Attachment #8). The proposed body rub parlour use will have minimal impact The proposed use is located in an area of the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood that has no visual presence along the major transportation corridors of Brock Road, Clements Road or Bayly Street. Rezoning the property to include a body rub parlour as a permitted use would recognize an existing non-conforming use and bring it into compliance. Furthermore, the applicant has advised that the proposed use has operated from 905 Dillingham Road for the past five years (see Attachment #9), and through discussions with Municipal Law Enforcement Services and Durham Regional Police Services, the City is not aware of any documented complaints respecting the use. Zoning By-law Performance Standards The proposed by-law will limit the gross leasable floor area The by-law will limit the gross leasable floor area of the body rub parlour use to a maximum of 160 square metres. The information report dated January 20, 2005, indicated the floor area to be 85 square metres, representing the ground floor area only. However, the unit contains a mezzanine level with a floor area of approximately 68 square metres for a total floor area of approximately 160 square metres. The intent of limiting the gross leasable floor area is to ensure that the proposed use does not occupy a significant amount of floor space within the condominium complex, thus becoming the primary use. A mix of uses will be maintained. The existing by-law will govern all other zoning requirements No further amendments to the current 'M2' zoning are proposed or required. The current by-law requirements will continue to apply to the property. Renata Trent (A 16/04) March 24, 2005 Page 4 2.3 2.3.1 3.0 Municipal By-law 5764/00 - Body Rub Parlours The proposed body rub parlour complies with the Municipal By-law & licensing requirements On October 16, 2000, City Council passed Municipal By-law 5764/00, which provides requirements for the licensing and regulating of body rub parlours within the City of Pickering. The by-law includes a provision that restricts the location in which body rub parlours may be considered to operate. The restricted area is within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood, subject to a zoning by-law amendment application being approved by the City. The subject property is located within the designated area as per Municipal By-law 5764/00 (see Attachment #10), and the business has been issued a 2005 Body Rub Parlour License from Municipal Law Enforcement Services. At the time of passage of Municipal By-law 5764/00 the City provided existing body rub parlours a "grandfather status" which permitted the business to obtain a license even though zoning 'was not approved. This special status expires December 31, 2005. Consequently the applicant is requesting rezoning of the subject property to permit the continuance of the existing business. Applicant's Comments The applicant is aware of the contents of this report, has reviewed the draft zoning by-law, and concurs with the recommendations.

TO The owners.and tenants of 905 Dillingham Road have a wide range of problems with the operation of the body rub parlor 1. The late operating hours bring a lot of traffic to om- building very late at night there is constantly beer cans and trash left behind and on many occasions customers have been seen urinating on and arom~d the building. 2. The parking in the building doesn't allow for the amount of cars there business brings. The employees and customers park in areas not designated to parking and in the spaces assigned to the other units. 3. It is also the belief of the owners that the values of our properties are compromised by having this type of business in the building. There is always a ~oup of scantly clad women out front smoking. As an owner who was recently selling one of my unit~ I can tell you first hand that two potential buyers were turned off the unit because of the presence of this type of massage parlor.

Re: Zoning Amendment Application A1 9OS DIIlingham Road, Unit #3 ' ' .... I act far the Owner/Applicant, Ms. Renata Trent. Please accept and put forward for consideration by Council these Wdtten submissions, which are provided Jn accordance with subsection 34(t4.1) of the Planning Act. The Applicant seeks an amendment to the current zoning by-taw governing 905 Dillingham Road to allow for a body-rub Parlour'as a permitted use at the said premises. The Applicant has operated a duly licensed body-rub parlour at 905 Dillingham Road, Unit #3 for approximately five years, Body-rub padours are governed under City of Pickering By-taw 5764/00, In addition to setting out various requirements for the obtaining of a body. rub parlour licence, the By- law. sets out the area or areas in which body-rub padours may operate within the geographic iim~ of the Otty of Pickering. The 'Municipality did not enact a corresponding zoning by. law at the time of the passage of its licensing by-I~w, thus creating a situation where operation of the business under the iioence results in a zoning violation (please see Treesann Management Inc. v, Town of Richmond Hill, · where an adult entertainment parlour by-law was quashed on that basis).' The City has, after five years of licensing the activity at the subject location, put the Applicant on notice that it must seek an 'amendment to the zoning by-law to allow for its continued lawful operation. The subject premises already falls within the licensing zone'established by By-taw 5764/(::)0. By granting this appiicatbn for a zoning amendment, Council would,simply be correcting the omission that was made in faiting to enact a corresponding zoning by-law at the time of the passing of.By-law 5764/00. it Js presumed that Council already considered the' planning related implications of allowing the use at the subject premises when it passed By-taw 5784/00. The subject premise is located in what is primarily an industrial zone, away from residential uses. The parking provided at the site is sufficient to support all of the uses carried on in the. various industrial/commercial condominium units, Qther impaling factors, such as hours of operation and signaga are operational in nature and jurisdictionally ~Ouid fall under the rubric of licensing as opposed to planning or zoning, From a planning perspective, it is respecffuliy submitted that there would be no reason to deny the application. I have had an opportunity to review the petition letter submitted by some owners and residents of 905 DiIlingham Road. In response t~ the concerns raised please note the following:' 1. Hours of operation are regulated through licensing by-laws and not an appropriate consideration for this. application; 2. Parking Js sufficient to support the amount of cu'stomers that attend the business. Disputes over designated parking spots are an inl~emal matter for the condomini~Jm corporation. 3, The alleged negative effect on property values is unproven and irrelevant to the zoning amendment application. 4, The reference to 'this type of massage parlor'" is curious, My client is operating a licensed body-rub parbur which by statutory definition is an adult entertainment establishment_ tt has been'~uly licensed as such for five years and my client makes no pretense that it is anything else but what it holds itself to be, Considerations of the morality of my'client's business are cleady not relevant to this application. 5. A representative of the condominium corporation provided' a letter permitting the ,application. 6. The signatories of the petition do not comprise fifty, percent Of the overall unit holders in the condominium corporation.. -3- It is submitted that from beth a legal and planning perspective, allowing the application for an amendment to the current zoning by-law would be sound and prudent. All of which i.4 respectfully submitted along wi~h the letter of Ms. Renata Trent dated January 6, 2005. 2.8. The Regional Municipality of Durham Planning Department 1615 DUNDAS ST.

As you are aware, we are applying for an amendment to the existing zoning by-law applicable to the premises to allow for the specific use of a body-mb parlour. My establishment has been fully licensed for the past 5 years (we just received the Iicence for the year 2005) and I am the owner of the condominium unit in which the business is located. The location of my eStablishment is within the defined m'ea where body-rub parlours may be licensed pursuant to Schedule "B" of City of Pickering By-law 5764/00 and all that is now required is site specific permission for the contemplated use to allow for future compliance with the City's zoning by-laws. I take great pains to ensure that all the regulations applicable to body-rub parlours outlined in By-law 5764/00 are complied with on a regular basis. All of my employees are licensed, legally permitted to work in Canada and over the age of eighteen. There are no minors allowed in the premises, either as customers or attendants. As -well, all of the employees have provided the licensing department with a criminal background check and proof of a medical examination upon obtaining their body-mb iicences. I take pride i'n the fact that we have a good record with the police and City by-law enforcement officers and in the fact that we are on good terms with our fellow condominium owners. My staff and I run this business in a quiet, clean, discreet and respectful manner and I personally promise to ensure that that trend continues, if you see fit to vote in favour of this application. ' If you have any questions or concerns in respect of this application, please feel free to contact me directly. Otherwise, I thank you in advance for taking the time to consider these comments. Yours very truly, Renata Trent 3 3 OFFICE CONSOLIDATION BODY RUB PARLOUR BY-LAW BY-LAW NUMBER 5764/00 Passed by Council on October 16, 2000 Amendments: By-law date passed section amended 5783/00 December 18, 2000 Schedule "B" December 18, 2000 Schedule TIlE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PICKERING BY-LAW NUMBER 5764/00 Being a by-law to licence and regulate body-mb parlours in the City of?ickering.

Executive Summary: The Province has released a draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe following public consultation on its earlier P/aces to Grow - Better Choices. Brighter Future. Discussion Paper. In the draft Growth Plan, growth is directed as infill and redevelopment to built-up areas especially the urban growth centres, such as downtown Pickering. New greenfield development is directed to designated growth areas, such as Seaton. The Province is proposing to support the Growth Plan by investing significantly in public infrastructure, public transit, assuming stronger Provincial authority, and providing new fiscal and regulatory tools for municipalities to implement the Growth Plan. A summary of the draft Growth Plan is provided as Attachment #1 to this Report and the specific provisions of the Growth Plan for Pickering are discussed in Section 1.1 of this Report. Comments have been made on the draft Growth Plan relating to: the shift in responsibility for land use planning matters from municipalities to the province; the need for municipalities to be equal partners in the preparation of the sub-area growth strategies; the need to extend the timeframe from 2015 to a longer timeframe in order to achieve the minimum intensification targets; the need to increase the employment forecast for Durham Region; and the need for further information on possible new fiscal and regulatory tools to implement the Growth Plan. Report PD 12-05 Subject: Draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Date: March 31,2005 Page 3 It is recommended that the Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal incorporate Pickering's comments into the final Growth Plan. Further, the Province should release a comprehensive package of all of its Greater Golden Horseshoe initiatives for further consultation, prior to finalizing the Growth Plan. Financial Implications: There are no financial implications to providing comments on the draft Growth Plan. However, significant staff time will be required in order to have meaningful participation in the Provincial process. Background: 1.0 Discussion 1.1 The specific provisions of the Growth Plan relating to employment projections, intensification targets and transportation system components are problematic. A summary of the provincial draft Growth Plan is provided as Attachment #1 to this Report. A full copy of the draft Growth Plan was previously provided under separate cover to members of Council. Specific provisions of the draft Growth Plan for Pickering are identified in the chart below. Comments are also noted. Key issues are discussed in more detail in the remaining sections of this Report. Draft Growth Plan Schedules Schedule 3 (see Attachment #2) indicates an employment forecast of 350,000 jobs for Durham Region at 2031 (36.5% jobs to population ratio). Schedule 4 (see Attachment #3) identifies Downtown Pickering as an 'urban growth centre'. · Schedule 4 shows a built-up area (generally) for south Pickering. · Schedule 4 shows a designated growth area for Pickering (Seaton). Staff Comments · Disagree. A more balanced live-work relationship of one job for every two persons is required for Durham Region, particularly for urban lands within the GTA and Hamilton sub-area (50% jobs to population ratio). · Support identification of downtown Pickering. · Actual limit of centre to be identified in sub-area growth strategy. · Actual limit of built-up area to be identified in sub-area growth strategy. · Support identification of Seaton. Actual limit of growth area to be identified in sub-area growth strategy. · Add the Cherryvvood Community to the 'designated growth area' for Pickering. Report PD 12-05 Subject: Draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Date: March 31,2005 Page 4 Draft Growth Plan Schedules · Schedules 4 and 7 (see Attachment #6) shows the 'draft' greenbelt lands. · Schedule 4 identifies the 'designated non-urban area' in northeast Pickering. · Schedules 5 and 6 (see Attachments #4 & #5) shows the future proposed Pickering airport. · Schedule 5 shows the CP Havelocl~ Railway to Peterborough as a proposed higher order transit to 2031. Schedule 6 shows Highway 407 East of Brock Road as Future Economic / Transport Corridors. Schedule 8 (see Attachment #7) shows Pickering within proposed Sub-area 1 - GTA and Hamilton. Staff Comments · Lands associated with the agricultural assembly, the former Lake Iroquois Shoreline and the East Duffins Creek are within the greenbelt lands; final Growth Plan should include updated Greenbelt Plan map. · Transfer the Cherrywood Community from the Greenbelt Plan to the Growth Plan. · Lands within a 'designated non-urban area' would not be considered for urban purposes until after 2031. · Consistent with the Places to Grow Discussion Paper. · Add a proposed higher order transit route along an easterly extension of Highway 407 before 2031. · Add a proposed higher order transit route along Taunton Road and Kingston Road. · Add CP Belleville Railway as existing higher order transit. · Add a proposed higher transit route from the Pickering GO Station to the Highway 407 transitway. · Clarify that the higher order transit route for the CP Havelock railway is of lesser priority than other transit and transportation projects within Pickering. · Extend Highway 407 corridor easterly to Highway 35/115 and clarify the priority of the 407 extension within the 2031 planning horizon. The Growth Plan downplays the importance of extending Highway 407 through Durham Region. · Support the inclusion of Picketing in the GTA and Hamilton sub-area. · Extensive area consisting in total of 43 municipalities, regions, and conservation authorities. Report PD 12-05 Subject: Draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Date: March 31,2005 Page 5 1.2 1.3 1.4 The provincial Growth Plan and sub-area growth strategies for the Greater Golden Horseshoe create a new higher level planning document to which all municipal official plans will have to conform. The provincial Growth Plan's vision of managing growth and developing stronger transit-supportive communities is generally supported. The preparation of a sub-area growth strategy for the GTA and Hamilton provides an opportunity to directly engage the Province in maximizing infrastructure investments and attracting investment in downtown Pickering, which is recognized as a 'urban growth centre' in the draft Growth Plan document. As well, the 'urban growth centre' designation provides an opportunity to enhance Pickering's downtown as a strategic gateway between Durham Region and Toronto. Previously, the Places to Grow discussion paper identified downtown Pickering as an 'emerging urban centre'. However, the provincial Growth Plan appears to represent a significant shift in responsibility for land use planning matters from local and regional levels to the provincial level. A new tier of plans crossing both local and regional boundaries will be created for each of the sub-areas. The Growth Plan notes that sub-area growth strategies are not intended to duplicate local official plans and policies. However, official plans will be required to conform to the Growth Plan. The Province should ensure that municipalities are equal partners in preparing the work program for their respective sub-area growth strategy and as members of their respective sub-area growth strategy working team. Although the Growth Plan notes that the Province jointly with municipalities will prepare sub-area growth strategies, the municipal role in this process must be strengthened. Local municipalities must be provided with the authority to determine the way in which intensification is to be achieved in their respective areas. To ensure that municipal issues are brought forward for consideration, it is requested that the Province engage municipalities as full participants both in the preparation of a work program for their respective sub-area growth strategy and in the sub-area growth strategy working team. As a minimum, lower-tier municipalities identified as urban growth centres and upper-tier municipalities should be active participants in the Provincial exercise. The sub-area growth strategy should focus on the broader cross-boundary issues instead of detailing local level matters. The growth strategies are intended to be comprehensive in scope addressing a wide range of topics for each sub-area. A more strategic focus on the broader cross-boundary issues such as infrastructure, transportation, economic development, transit and urban boundary expansions is recommended. There should be less emphasis on the agricultural system, rural areas, and mineral aggregate resources outside of urban areas as these matters are more appropriately addressed through local official plans. Without refining the scope of sub-area growth strategies, staff is concerned that the process could take several years from initial inception to approval for the large geographic sub-areas. Report PD 12-05 Subject: Draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Date: March 31,2005 Page 6 1.5 1.6 The timeframe to achieve the minimum intensification requirements in the draft Growth Plan should be extended from 2015 to a more realistic timeframe. The draft Growth Plan requires a phased increase in the amount of residential intensification occurring within existing built-up areas, such that by 2015, 40% of all new residential development occurring annually shall be within today's build-up area. It is our understanding that Durham Region will be responsible for increasing the current intensification target of 20% incrementally until it reaches 40% by 2015 and that all municipalities will be required to meet the 40% target. Considering the high residential growth rates anticipated for Seaton (outside the built-up area) over the next 15 years, a 40% annual intensification rate for Pickering would be hard to achieve by 2015. This means that if we have 2,000 new residential units constructed annually by the year 2015 in Pickering, 40% or 800 units would have be constructed in today's built-up area. Our concern is that there may not be sufficient land and adequate infrastructure within the built-up area to accommodate the 40% intensification target on annual basis. As well, intensification areas are to be generally planned to achieve not less than 200 residents and jobs per net hectare. Staff is concerned that this level of intensity cannot be achieved in such a short time. As an example, the newly constructed OPG building on Brock Road is approximately 16,150m2 (6-storey building) on 4 hectares of land with a projected 750 jobs being accommodated. This translates into 187.5 jobs per hectare, which is below the Growth Plan density. Although infill and intensification within the existing built-up areas is supported, it should be recognized that municipalities can only provide opportunities for higher densities but no landowner can be compelled to develop. Intensification and redevelopment is not a one-time process, but rather an ongoing evolution of a community. A more gradual implementation of the density over 20-30 years, rather than 10 years, would provide a more realistic timeframe for the market to respond with higher density development. The employment forecasts for Durham Region should be increased to achieve jobs to population ratio of one to two rather than one to three, to be consistent across the GTA-Hamilton sub-area. Schedule 3 of the draft Growth Plan indicates an employment forecast of 350,000 jobs (36.5% jobs to population ratio) for Durham Region at 2031. This is lower than the employment forecast presented in the Durham Regional Official Plan Review (423,000 jobs or 40.1% jobs to population ratio for 2031), and less than Durham's current jobs to population ratio target of 50%. A lower employment forecast is not supportive of Durham Region's direction to balance population growth with employment. A more balanced live-work relationship of one job for every two persons is required in Durham Region if it is to achieve the Growth Plan's objective of creating compact, transit-supportive communities that make more efficient use of existing and proposed infrastructure. Report PD 12-05 Subject: Draft Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe Date: March 31,2005 Page 7 1.7 Public consultation should be included as an integral part of the preparation sub-area growth strategies in the Growth Plan. 1.8 1.9 1.10 The preparation of a sub-area growth strategy includes no public consultation process. To ensure that the Province undertakes a meaningful consultation process, it is recommended that the Province enshrine a public process in the Growth Plan to inform and obtain comments from residents in all parts of each sub-area as a component of the sub-area growth strategy process. Details on implement document. fiscal and regulatory tools to support municipal efforts to the draft Growth Plan are lacking in the draft Growth Plan Details on fiscal and regulatory tools referenced in the original Discussion Paper, are not provided in the draft Growth Plan. A representative of the Ministry of Public Infrastructure Renewal has advised that information relating to a wide variety of fiscal tools that may be used to implement the Growth Plan is currently being prepared but these tools will not be finalized prior to the Growth Plan being approved. An appropriate financial toolbox is essential to enable implementation of the Growth Plan in municipalities and to assist the public in making appropriate housing choices. It is essential that the Province provide further information on these fiscal and regulatory implementation tools for municipal review and comment, prior to finalizing the Growth Plan. More information on the role and structure of the Greater Toronto Transportation Authority (GTTA) is required. No details are provided on the role and structure of the previously announced establishment of a Greater Toronto Transportation Authority (GTTA) with sub-area growth plans, provincial funding ministries and municipal transit operators. Although there is merit in provincial coordination of broader transit planning and funding, the Province is requested to provide further information on the GTTA's relationship to local transit providers. Staff will continue to monitor the Growth Plan and advise Council of significant events or information. Staff will follow-up with the Province respecting Council's comments on the Plan, and will advise Council of significant matters about the final Growth Plan.

The Plan should also be considered in conjunction with other provincial plans, including the Niagara Escarpment Plan, the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan, and the Greenbelt Plan. · The Growth Plan provides more detailed strategies and policy directions that: · direct growth to built-up areas where the capacity exists to accommodate the expected population, household and employment growth; · promote transit-supportive densities and a healthy mix of residential and employment land uses; · identify and supports a transportation network that links urban centres through an extensive multi-modal transportation system anchored by efficient public transit and highway systems for moving people and goods; · ensure sustainable water and wastewater services are available to support future growth; · identify a natural system and an agricultural system, and enhance the conservation of these resources and connect with the Greenbelt Plan; and · coordinate inter-municipal planning for sub-area issues such as urban structure, economic development, resource management, infrastructure requirements and environmental protection. · The Growth Plan includes Schedules that identify: · urban growth centres and settlement areas - where growth will be directed; · a transportation network - for moving people and goods and connecting urban growth centres; and · the proposed Greenbelt, which is protected from development. There 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. are five main topic areas in the Draft Growth Plan: Where and How to Grow Infrastructure to Support Growth Protecting What is Valuable Sub-area Growth Strategies Implementation and a Provincial Multi-Year Infrastructure Strategy 1. Where and How to Grow This section promotes efficient land use by directing growth away from greenfields and into urban growth centres, brownfield sites, greyfields, intensification corridors and other areas with excess infrastructure capacity. Intensification and re-urbanization will improve opportunities to balance employment and residential uses; make transit, walking and cycling options convenient; and maximize the use of existing infrastructure capacity. The polices and strategies include: ATTACHMENT# 1 TO REPORT # PD 12-05 Summary of the Draft Growth Plan Page 2 · population, household and employment growth forecasts as the basis for the Growth Plan, which will also be used to update official plans and any related municipal growth studies; · all municipalities will establish policies and strategies to facilitate and promote intensification within their built-up areas; · upper-tier municipalities will plan for a phased increase in the yearly percentage of intensification, such that by the year 2015 a minimum of 40 percent of all residential development occurring annually will be within built-up areas; · intensification areas such as urban growth centres and intensification corridors will provide a focus for development to accommodate growth; · intensification areas will generally be planned to achieve a density of development not less than 200 residents and jobs per hectare. · municipalities will establish policies in their official plans to implement appropriate intensification targets and a range and mix of housing types including minimum affordable housing targets; · urban growth centres and intensification corridors will be planned to attract a significant portion of growth, to have a diverse mix of land uses, to serve as major employment centres, and to accommodate employment activities; · urban growth centres will also be planned to serve as regional transit hubs and as focal areas for investment in cultural, institutional, recreational, entertainment and regional-level public infrastructure; · municipalities may permit conversion of lands within employment areas to non-employment uses or major retail uses only through a comprehensive review; · municipalities are encourage to designate and preserve lands in the immediate vicinity of existing major highways, railyards and international airports as areas for manufacturing, warehousing, and associated retail, office and ancillary facilities; · major office development will be located in areas where higher order transit services exist or are planned; · the gross density of development in designated growth areas will generally not be less than 50 residents and jobs per hectare; · new development must be designed in a manner that encourages street configurations that support early integration of transit services and encourage easy access to stores and services by alternate transportation modes including cycling and walking; · sub-area growth strategies will assess the need for and phasing of the amount of designated growth areas within a municipality; and · settlement area expansions will generally not be permitted prior to the completion of a sub-area growth strategy. ATTACHMENT # 1_~._ TO REPORT # PD 12-05 Summary of the Draft Growth Plan Page 3 = = Infrastructure to Support Growth This section provides the framework for infrastructure investment that will support and emphasize compact urban form; identify, optimize and expand the capacity of existing infrastructure, establish a more integrated transportation network; and coordinate long-range infrastructure plans across the GGH. As well, the Province is promoting the integration of land use and transportation within the GGH by facilitating residential and employment intensification through transit-supportive development within intensification areas; promoting intensification generally throughout the urban areas; requiring greenfield development to be transit supportive in both form and densities; and restricting development within non-growth areas. The efficient movement of people and goods will be accomplished by: · expanding service areas and facilitating improved linkages to urban growth centres within and between sub-areas; · making transit the first priority for investment to meet the Growth Plan's objectives of increasing transit ridership, managing congestion, reducing commuting time, improving levels of transit service, and providing alternative transportation choices; · requiring municipalities to establish polices to ensure that pedestrian and bicycle networks are integrated into community design; · requiring municipalities to establish priority truck routes to facilitate the movement of goods into and out of areas of significant activity; and · requiring municipalities to ensure that land-use activities along or in the vicinity of inter-modal facilities, truck routes, railway corridors, etc. are compatible with the movement of goods. Protectinq What is Valuable This section provides the framework for directing growth pressures away from the places and systems we need to protect such as natural and agricultural systems, rural areas, mineral aggregate resources and cultural heritage resources. The Plan builds on other provincial initiatives such as the PPS, the Greenbelt Plan, planning reform, and the Ontario Heritage Act reform. · the natural system of the GGH will be identified and mapped in conjunction with municipalities, conservation authorities and other affected stakeholders; · the natural system will be incorporated into municipal official plans; · the expansion of a settlement area boundary will not be permitted in the natural system; · the agricultural system of the GGH will be identified and mapped in conjunction with municipalities and other affected stakeholders; · the agricultural system will be incorporated into municipal official plans; · municipalities are encouraged to maintain, improve and provide opportunities for farm-related infrastructure; ATTACHMENT# 1 TO REPORT# PD '12-05 ._ Summary of the Draft Growth Plan Page 4 · a long-term strategy for mineral resource management will be developed in conjunction with municipalities and other stakeholders in the GGH; · energy and water demand management initiatives that reduce consumption and improve resource use efficiency and review the design of new urban developments in the context of managing the total urban water cycle are encouraged to be developed; · sustainable energy and air quality management plans that include energy conservation strategies are encouraged to be developed; and · municipal cultural heritage plans, heritage citizen committees, and plans that conserve significant cultural heritage resources are encouraged to be developed. Sub-Area Growth Strateqies This section provides details for implementing the general policies of the Growth Plan through sub-area growth strategies. The Province, together with municipalities, will address the specific needs of each sub-area. There are five distinct sub-areas in the GGH. · the elements of a sub-area growth strategy will: · refine population, household and employment allocations to upper and single-tier municipalities; · distribute population, household and employment growth to all municipalities; · identify intensification areas to accommodate more compact growth; · establish intensification targets for each municipality; · establish built boundaries within each municipality; · establish affordable housing targets for the whole sub-area; · complete a sub-area economic analysis and infrastructure planning needs assessment; · determine the phasing of expansions to designated growth areas and/or settlement areas; · review transportation requirements and transportation demand management plans to service the forecasted growth; · review water supply, wastewater treatment and solid waste disposal capacities; · identify and delineate natural and agricultural systems and protection measures; and · establish waste diversion targets; · each sub-area growth strategy will be approved by the Minister of Public infrastructure Renewal and incorporated as an amendment to the Growth Plan. ATTACHMENT# 1 TO REPORT # PD 12-05 Summary of the Draft Growth Plan Page 5 Implementation and a Provincial Multi-Year Infrastructure Strategy This section provides the mechanisms to ensure that effective implementation of the Growth Plan takes place. Key mechanisms include providing a legislative framework - the proposed Places to Grow Act, 2004, an appropriate range of tools, and monitoring and review. The Province will also develop infrastructure plans, including asset management strategies that will prioritize infrastructure investments and set out a comprehensive plan for delivering infrastructure priorities. · Municipal official plans must be amended to conform to the Growth Plan. · Decisions under the Planning Act or the Condominium Act or other acts must conform to the Growth Plan. · Only the Minister of Public Infrastructure Renewal can initiate an amendment to the Growth Plan. · The Growth Plan including the sub-area growth strategies will be reviewed by the Province at least every 10 years. · A set of indicators will be developed by the Province to measure the implementation of the targets and policies of the Growth Plan. · A 10-year infrastructure strategy will be developed by the Province to ensure that future infrastructure investments support provincial priorities, including growth and development in the GGH.

The proposed sign is three metres high and five metres wide and will be mounted three metres aboVe the ground. Billboard signs are defined in By-law 2439/87 (Signs) as any sign used to advertise a business, product or service not necessarily found or sold on the premises on which it is. located. This sign proposed by John Byberg is considered a billboard because it is advertising a business that is located in the hamlet of Brooklin. Also, billboards are only allowed in commercial, mixed commercial and industrial areas. The Sign By-law specifically prohibits billboards in agricultural and residential areas which is where the sign is purported to be located. Staff are not able to approve this Sign Permit Application because the Sign By-law prohibits billboards in agricultural and residential areas. However, Section 99(5) of the Municipal Act states: The municipality may authorize minor variances from the by-law (sign by- law) if in the opinion of the municipality, the general intent and purpose of the by-law are maintained. I have attached for your information the following documentation: An E-Mail dated November 3, 2003 from John Byberg submitting an application for a variance from the Sign By-law.

I have applied for a sign to be put on Mr. Lees property east of Greenwood, and I have been turned down from the city of Pickering. MTO is on side with the signage. Mr Lee has agreed to the'sign as well. There are other large fully lit billboard signs on the Kings Highway. One near the Paddock garage, and another on Dutchmasters land east of Greenwood. Another is just west of Hwy 23 which has been put up within the last 4 years. My sign will be well maintained as our restaurant has a standard to uphold.

Since Nov. 3, 1999, in partnership with Durham Region Health Department, our group has supported people across Durham Region living with/affected by this insidious, blood-borne virus and have helped to educate the public. As of March 24, 2005, 1,881 cases of Hepatitis C have been reported by Durham Region Health Department. As a volunteer member of the Planning Committee for the Community Track 3 section of the 2nd Canadian Conference on Hepatitis C, in Vancouver, B.C. March 27-30, 2004, I was honoured to have spoken at the session on Community Group Development: Successes and Challenges. Also, I co-ordinated the speakers and moderated the session on "Nutrition, Exercise & Complementary & Alternative Therapies." It is estimated that between 300,000 and 400,000 Canadians are living with Hepatitis C (2/3 undiagnosed as yet) and are at risk for developing cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer and a wide variety of Hepatitis C mediated autoimmune diseases. This life-threatening disease is the number one reason for liver transplants in North America. Hepatitis C may take ten to thirty years to destroy its host. In the absence of a vaccine or effective treatment therapy, only public awareness and education can halt the spread of the disease. May 1st as Hepatitis C Awareness Day and the month of May as Hepatitis C Awareness Month has been proclaimed in many communities across North America. The proclamation is an opportunity to enhance awareness, education, tolerance, understanding, and to be a beginning point for healing of the grief for those who have succumbed to Hepatitis C. Please assist me in furthering my mission to spread the word about this silent, misunderstood epidemic by proclaiming May 1st as Hepatitis C Awareness Day and May, 2005 as Hepatitis C Awareness Month in the City of Picketing.
