That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 27/02 submitted by Silver Lane Estates Inc. on behalf of E. Williamson, on lands being Part of Lot 32, Concession 1, City of Pickering, to establish performance standards to permit the development of a plan of subdivision for semi-detached and townhouse dwelling units, be APPROVED.

Executive Summary: The applicant proposes to develop a draft plan of subdivision consisting of 53 dwelling units (6 semi-detached dwellings and 47 street townhouse dwellings). The semi-detached lots will front onto Treetop Way, while the townhouse lots will front onto a new municipal street being the extension of Calvington Drive. The draft plan also proposes the creation of blocks for open space and stormwater purposes. The applicant proposes to amend the current zoning to allow the proposed dwelling units with appropriate performance standards, to permit the implementation of the draft plan. 0 1 8 Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 3 1.1 2.0 2.1 Additional Lands Added to the Development The applicant has added additional land to the development along the southern boundary of the original draft plan. The additional lands are proposed to be used for a stormwater management facility and for open space purposes. Since these lands have been added following the Statutory Pubic Information Meeting, they can not be included in the recommended amending zoning by-law as these lands have not been the subject of a formal public meeting. The consideration for amending the zoning for these lands must first be the subject of a public meeting that has had the required circulation of notification of the public meeting. Similarly the application for approval of the draft plan approval cannot consider these additional lands as no public meeting was held on them. Given that these additional lands are intended to be dedicated to public authorities this can occur as part of the conditions of approval for the subdivision. The following chart outlines the proposed development detail: Details of the Applications Total area of draft plan Residential area Future residential development blocks Open space blocks Stormwater pond block Municipal street Detached dwellings Semi-detached dwellings Townhouse dwellings Total dwelling units Density Original Plan Revised Plan (see Attachment #2) (see Attachment #3) 3.94 ha - 5.47 ha 1.26ha -- 1.14ha 0.20 ha -- 0.21 ha - 1.78 ha - 0.12 ha - 0.45 ha -- 30 -- 10 -- 0 - 40 - 32 units/ha - 2.92 ha - 0.74 ha - 0.45 ha - 0 -- 6 - 47 - 53 - 46 units/ha Comments Received At the February 20, 2003, Public Information Meeting One abutting property owner appeared at the meeting to voice their concern with issues related to functional servicing, stormwater management, storm sewers and property access (see text of Information Report and Meeting Minutes, Attachments #4 and #5). Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 4 0 1 9 2.2 2.3 Agency Comments Region of Durham The proposal is permitted by the policies of the Durham Region Official Plan; Municipal water supply and sanitary sewer service can be provided; The applications have been screened in accordance with Provincial Interests and Delegated Review and there is no concern with the applications; The Region has no objection to the applications and has provided condition of approval (see Attachment #6); Toronto and Region Conservation Authority No objections to the applications subject to the applicant fulfilling certain conditions of approval and concluding certain technical design matters (see Attachment #7); No other agency that provided any comments has any objection to the subject applications. Certain technical issues and requirements related to the proposed use of the site can be addressed during the subdivision approval process, if this application is approved. City Departments Development Control Has provided detailed comments on the submitted material noting that certain technical matters will have to be addressed during the detailed design if this application is approved (see Attachment #8); Municipal Property & Engineering Cash in-lieu of parkland dedication is required. Certain technical design matters will need to be advanced during the detailed design if the applications are approved; Open space blocks are to be conveyed to a public authority (see Attachment #9); 3.0 Discussion The Proposed Density/Number of Dwelling Units is Appropriate The developable portion of the subject property is designated Urban Residential Area - Medium Density Area in the Pickering Official Plan. Lands designated Urban Residential Area - Medium Density Area permits, amongst others, a varie[y of residemiai u~uu i~[uiudi,,9 ~,,,-u~,,,~u uvv~,,,,,uo o,,'-' ,,.,,v,,, dwelling units. 020 Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 5 The Pickering Official Plan establishes a density range of over 30 and up to and including 80 dwelling units per hectare for development within an Urban Residential Area - Medium Density Area. Development proposed by the applicant reflects a density of 46 units per hectare. The introduction of a variety of housing types, as recommended by staff to improve vehicle parking accommodation, will reduce the overall density for the subdivision but still fall within the required density range. The recommended applications comply with the Official Plan and represent appropriate development for the subject lands. Vehicle Parking A moderate increase in housing units is brought about by the introduction of a townhouse housing form on Calvington Drive on the applicant's revised plan. Temporary on-street vehicle parking will be very limited. Special consideration must be given to house design, house siting, and sidewalk placement to maximize off-street parking opportunity. A specific condition of approval has been included in Appendix I (Recommended Conditions of Approval) to address this matter. It is noted that any freehold development at the medium density scale will bring vehicle parking challenges. By introducing flexible zoning that allows either detached, semi-detached or townhouse housing forms on blocks in the plan, additional opportunity will be provided to help maximize on-street and off-street parking. The draft plan should be revised, prior to the issuance of formal Conditions of Approval, to incorporate other dwelling types that will improve opportunity for on-street and off-street parking. Natural Open Space Lands being Conveyed to Public Authority Lands that are designated Open Space Systems - Natural Area are intended to be used primarily for conservation, environmental protection, restoration, education passive recreation and similar uses. The land that are part of the subdivision that are designated Open Space Systems- Natural Area are proposed to be conveyed to a public authority and used for natural area and for stormwater management. This complies with the intent of the City of Pickering Official Plan. Townhouses are Compatible with Existing Neighbourhood The proposed form of residential land use complies with the Official Plan. The proposed townhouses and semi-detached dwellings are compatible with the surrounding forms of residential dwellings which is a mix of detached, semi-detached and townhouse dwelling units. The introduction of a greater mix of dwelling types on the extension of Calvington Drive will further improve the mix of dwelling types. Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 6 021 3.1 The issue of urban design is an important consideration that must be addressed. This matter deals with massing and design of the buildings. While detailed building designs have not been undertaken (which is common for this stage of the development process) the applicant will be required to prepare an architectural design statement. If this application is approved, it will be a requirement that the buildings facing a public view be designed with a high order of urban design. The proposed development is considered compatible with the surrounding land uses. Technical Matters Fencing of the Site is Required The subject draft plan will require the residential lands to be fenced were they abut open space lands. Fencing of the entire open space blocks will be considered during the detail design phase. Prior to the installation of the permanent fence, a temporary construction fence will be erected and maintained. Conditions of Approval recommended in Appendix I to this Report include provisions to ensure that both temporary and permanent fencing will be installed as per approved plans. Subdivision Agreement will be required to Address Development A future subdivision agreement between the City and the owner of the lands will be required to ensure that all matters of interest to the City are protected. This required agreement, and several other development implementation matters, are incorporated into the recommended conditions of approval for this application and are found in Appendix I to this Report. The subdivision agreement will specifically address the requirement for the conveyance of the land for the stormwater management block that is located outside of the proposed draft approved plan of subdivision and for the applicant to be responsible for the construction of the stormwater facility. Cash-in-Lieu of Parkland As no park blocks form part of the draft plan, the City will accept cash-in lieu from the subdivider in order to satisfy Section 42(1 ) of the Planning Act. Edge Management/Open Space Restoration An edge management plan will be required where the residential development abuts open space lands. As part of the detailed design for the subdivision the owner will be required to prepare an edge management plan to the City's satisfaction. The edge management plan may result in planting of appropriate species and the removal of dead or declining trees. 022 Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 7 Amending Zoning By-law The amending zoning by-law that is being recommended only covers the lands that were subject to the original application. The revised application incorporates additional land that has not been the subject of a formal public meeting. Therefore the rezoning of these lands cannot be considered until the required public meeting has occurred. A draft of the implementing zoning by-law is attached as Appendix II and is recommended for adoption by Council. The applicant has requested special consideration in the amending zoning by-law for some of the proposed dwelling units. The reduced standards relate to rear yard depths and side yard widths, both interior and flanking side yards. The applicant has requested a reduced rear yard depth of approximately 5.5 metres for numerous dwelling units whereas the City's general standard is 7.5 metre rear yard depth. For one specific lot the minimum rear yard depth of 2.0 metres has been requested. The requests are a result of the lotting fabric of the draft plan that does not proposes traditional rectangle shaped lot. For the semi-detached lots proposed to front onto Treetop Way, the zoning should be the same as the zoning for the existing semi-detached lots on Treetop Way. Further, the zoning for Blocks 12, 13 and 14, should match the zoning that presently applies to the abutting blocks of lands that will be merged to form building lots. The performance standards for these future lots should be consistent. The recommended zoning incorporates provisions that allow flexibility to incorporate detached and semi-detached dwelling types in addition to townhouses. This will help to resolve the issue of lack of on-street parking. By recommending this flexible multi-residential zone the subdivision can be revised and finalized without further modifications to the zoning by-law. The applicant requests a special reduced rear yard depth provision for specific townhouse units. The City's standard rear yard depth is 7.5 metres. This is the standard that has been established in the neighbourhood. Special consideration is requested for two proposed lots that have irregular configurations and therefore require special building designs. The applicant should demonstrate that all possible house designs have been explored for these lots prior to any special zoning being granted. This information has not been presented, therefore staff are recommending the standard rear yard depth. If issues remain following the completion of a full investigation of house design, then consideration can be given to these unique situations through an application to the Committee of Adjustment. Report PD 36-05 Subject: Draft Plan of Subdivision S-P-2002-06 Date: August 29, 2005 Page 8 023 4.0 Formal Conditions of Draft Plan of Subdivision Prior to the issuance of the formal conditions of draft plan of subdivision the owner shall submit a revised draft plan of subdivision that addresses the issues identified in this report. The revised draft plan of subdivision should incorporate some alternative dwelling types that address the issue of lack of on-street parking. The revised draft plan of subdivision should also consider the lotting fabric in order to overcome the irregular lots that resulted in difficult house sittings in terms of zoning by-law compliance. Applicant's Comments The applicant has been advised of the recommendations of this report. The applicant prefers to receive approval of the revised draft plan of subdivision as submitted by them (6 semi-detached dwellings and 47 street townhouse dwellings).

The Owner shall name road allowances included within this plan to the satisfaction of the Regional.Municipality of Durham and the City of Pickering. The Owner shall obtain and grant to the Region, all easements required to provide Regional services for this development and these easements shall be ,n locations and of such widths as determined by the Region and shall be granted with the execution of the subdivision agreement. The Owner shall submit plans showing any proposed phasing to the Region and the City of Pickering for review and approval, if this plan is to be developed by more than one registration. The Owner shall provide for the extension of such sanitary sewer and water supply facilities which are external to, as well as within, the limits of this plan that are required to service this plan. In addition, the Owner shall provide for the extension of sanitary sewer and water supply facilities within the limits of the plan which are required to service other developments external to this subdivision. Such sanitary sewer and water supply facilities are to be designed and constructed according to the standards and requirements of the Regional Municipality of Durham, All arrangements, financial and otherwise, for said extensions are to be to the satisfaction of the Regional Municipality of Durham and are to be completed prior to the release 'of the final approval of this plan. Prior to entering into a subdivision agreement, the Regional MUnicipality of Durham shall be satisfied that adequate water pollution control plant and Water supply Plant capacities are available to for the proposed SubdivisiOn. The Owner shall satisfy all requirements, financial and otherWise, of the Regional MuniciPality of Durham. This shall include, among others, the execution of a subdivision agreement between the Owner and the Region concerning the 052 10. page 2 provision and installation of sanitary sewers, water supply, roads and other Regiona services. The Owner shall submit to the Regional Municipality of Durham for rewew and approval, a noise report prepared by an acoustic engineer, based on proj'ected traffic volumes provided by the Region's Planning Department, recommending any necessary noise attenuation measures. The Owner shall provide the Region with a copy of the subdivision agreement containing such provisions prior to the final approval of the plan. Prior to final approval, the proponent shall engage a qualified professional to carry out, to the satisfaction of the Ministry of Culture, an archaeological assessment of the entire development property, and mitigate, through preservation or resource removal and documentation, adverse impacts to any significant archaeological resources found. No demOlition, grading or other soil disturbances shall take place on the subject property prior.to the Ministry of Culture confirming that all archaeological resource concerns have been met including licensing and resource conservation requirements. Prior to final approval, the Owner is required to sUbmit a signed Record of Site Condition (RSC) to the Regional Municipality of Durham, the City of Picketing, and the Ministry of Environment (MOE).

We note that the comments on the Water Balance Analysis, although significant, do not impact the layout of the draft plan. Given this, we also provide conditions of draft approval but by way of this letter, request that the applicant work with TRCA staff to resolve the outstanding water balance issues as follows, Please be advised that the proposed development across the study area is about 47 % (2.55 ha, table 4 on page 5) with average impervious cover about 74% (the same table, column 4 - % Impervious). This means that about 35% of the entire parcel of land will be impervious surfaces at the post-development scenario. Therefore, this parcel of land will be losing about 35% of existing infiltration. However, the report states that in the "worst case" scenario (Scenario 1, Section 4.3) 3.0 % groundwater recharge will be lost. Staff disagree with this assumption as the percentage of imperviousness is straightly related to groundwater infiltration percentage loss. In other words development will decrease the post-development infiltration based on an extension of impervious surfaces. Therefore, the post-development groundwater recharge loss should be reassessed. More hydrogeological data would be required to assess a level of this connection (baseflow ,4~,,-,~,-,~ ......... ,4,,,o+~. ~ .... ~,).Th¢. °"'"':"~"' m~,o*" ~: ,~... ......... on u ...., .......

"~ .,~;~.,,..,.,,, ,,,..., ~.on,,r,,, that,,..,,,~,~,.~'*' ,'-"~".'° dod',.'d~, .. from T~,o, ,..~,~ 3 Water Balance - Existing Conditions estimate pre-development infiltration component as 141 mm/year, which is not completely adequate for this type of soils. Please confirm with the MOE guidelines infiltration for fine sand and recalculate pre-development and post-development Water Balances. The applicant must provide mitigative measurements, which will be able to eliminate any potential groundwater infiltration loss. Disconnection of roof leaders from sewer system, soakaway pits, infiltration trenches should be considered as mitigative practices that will promote and maintain groundwater infiltration at post-development scenario. TRCA staff agrees with the consultants that a "third pipe" facility may not be feasible for this type of surficial stratigraphy. Staff note that given the conditions observed across the site (soils underlain the entire parcel consist of sandy silt with K equal to 10-5 m/s, and existing groundwater table is about 4-6 meters below the ground surface, which creates just most preferable conditions for groundwater natural F:\Home\Rublic\Development Services\Durham Region\Pickering\340'tT.wpd ...... /cont_d 5 Shoreham Drive, Downsview, Ontario M3N 1S4 (416) 661~6600 FAX 661-6898 www. trca.on.ca 054 Ross Pym -2- June14,2005 infiltration) there is potential to promote post-development infiltration and meet pre-development rate requirements. We request that these measures be incorporated into the design of the subdivision. We note that perhaps only about 50% of roof leaders may be actually connected to grassed swales due to a final grading. However this adjustment should be used for further post-development Water Balance recalculations. In addition, direct connection between the stream flow rates and groundwater infiltration across the site should be reconsidered. Stormwater Mana.qement Strate.qy and Facility Desi_qn The report indicates that the proposed SWM pond will provide water quality and erosion control. An emergency overflow from the pond must be provided to convey the proposed inflows. Major system flows should be conveyed around the SWM facility via a safe outlet from the site to the watercourse. The applicant must provide justification for the 35% impervious value used to size the SWM facility. Figure 8 indicates that a reversed slope pipe as the outlet structure. Further details on the outlet structure (i.e. cross-section drawings, plunge pool calculations) can be provided at the permitting stage. As indicated in previous comments, the applicant must confirm the groundwater elevation at tt~e proposed pond location and submit borehole information for review. Please note that the borehole should be drilled to the pond bottom depth, at a minimum. Notwithstanding the above issues to be addressed, we provide conditions of draft approval as follows: Prior to the initiation of grading and prior to the registration of this plan or any phase thereof, that the owner shall submit for the review and approval of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, (TRCA), the following: (A) a detailed report that describes the storm drainage system for the proposed development of the subject lands.

Ross Pym -3- June 14,2005 That prior to the final registration of this plan, the owner enter into an agreement with either the TRCA or the City of Pickering with respect to the acquisition of Blocks 16, 17 and 18. That Blocks 16, 17 and 18 the open space blocks, be placed in the appropriate designation that would have the effect of limiting the placement of fill, the removal of vegetation or regrading other than required for stormwater management and/or erosion control purposes. That the applicant finalize the water balance requirements for the subject lands to the satisfaction of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority and prior to the issuance of building permits for the subject development. That the owner agree in the subdivision agreement, in wording acceptable to the TRCA: (A) to carry out, or cause to be carried out, to the satisfaction of the TRCA, the recommendations referred to in the reports, as required in the above noted conditions. (B) to obtain a permit under Ontario Regulation 158 for the works described 'n Condition 1 above. (c) prior to the initiation of any grading or construction in the site, to erect a temporary snow fence or other suitable barrier between the open space lands and the proposed development area to the satisfaction of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. This barrier shall remain in place until all grading and construction on the site are completed. (E) to not place fill, grade, construct any buildings or structures or interfere with the channel of the watercourse without prior written approvals being received from the TRCA. 6.

Require confirmation that Block 17 and Block 18 will be conveyed to City of Pickering or TRCA. The Servicing Report refers to Clarington Drive and should be changed to Calvington Drive. The report also indicates in Section 5.2 that the minor storm is released into Rosebank Tributary, but preliminary design indicates an outfall that will connect across Part 4, Plan 40R-10744 to Petticoat Creek. 3. The functional design for the pond does not correspond to the recommendations in the report, specifically 5:1 side slopes recommended Draft Plan of Subdivision SP2002-06 November 15, 2004 Page 2 but typically 3:1 side slopes in Figure 8. This may affect the size of Block 16. The section of Block 16, between Block 6 and Block 7, as minor/major storm water route and pond access will not be aesthetically pleasing to the streetscape, and would be best suited along either west of Block 5 or east of Block 7. 5.

Executive Summary: To advise of a request from the owner of the Brock Spa at 1600 Alliance Road to expand the permitted area for body rub parlours to include Alliance Road. Financial Implications: Not applicable Background: A request has been received from Ms. Anna Trojanowska, owner of the Brock Spa located at 1600 Alliance Road, Pickering, to expand the permitted area for body rub parlours to include Alliance Road. A copy of the request has been included as Attachment 1 to this report. On October 16, 2000, Council passed By-law 5764/00, being a by-law to licence and regulate body-rub parlours in the City of Pickering. The by-law restricted the location of these establishments to the Brock Industrial Area. Body rub parlours that were operating at the time By-law 5764/00 was enacted were grandfathered for five years so 0'~ 2Report CS 56-05 Expansion of Permitted Area for Body Rub Parlours September 1,2005 Page 2 enacted were grandfathered for five years so that they could continue to operate their establishment until December 31, 2005, at which time they would have to relocate their establishment to the permitted area. Extensive review of the licencing of body-rub parlours was undertaken in 2000 with the Police, Health and By-law Enforcement officials and therefore, from our perspective there is no compelling reason to amend our by-law at this time. Further, this location is in contravention of By-law 5764/00 and has been provided appropriate time to relocate the business into the permitted area.

Pickering, Ontario, LIW 3~2 905-831-0526 073 March 21, 2005 Dear Mr. Bruce Taylor and Mrs. Kimberly Thompson, My Grandfathered status is about to expire. This letter serves to request that the permitted area where body rub parlours may operate as set out in Schedule 'B' of BY-LAW 5764/00 be expanded. It would be my intention to apply for an amendment to the current BY-LAW given your permission in this matter. The reasons for my request are listed below. Firstly, my proximity to the current line, the west most line in the permitted area runs through a hydro corridor which ends at my parking lot meaning that the actual line can be no more than 120 ft. from my premises. I also feel that I have been in full cooperation with the city since I established my business there over 4 years ago and have always been respectful of its policies and practices. I think it should also be mentioned that I feel that I have the full backing of my landlord, neighbours and peers in this request and am willing to attain documentation to support my feeling. There are also the issues of employees and suppliers who depend on my business to support them and given the costs of moving I may be forced to close if the area cannot be expanded. Another question would be the possibility of extending the grandfathered status, if this would be acceptable it would at least provide for further exploration of my options and the possibility of relocation which is improbable at this time but may be available to me in the future. :[ would like to open channels of discussion for any concerns or questions that you may have, my cellular phone number is 416-910-4266. Please feel free to call me on this matter at your convenience. Anna - O~nef-/Brock Spa 074 NOEL D.

SYSTEMS LEGAL SERVICES LIBRARY MUN. PROR & ENG. oPERATIONS i .... PLANNING & DEV. PROJ. & POE .SUPPLY & SER~/, s CLERK'S DIVISION FiLE NO.: L ....... FORWARD COPY ~'O: : ':'::': I have been formally retained by Ms. Anna Trojanowska to act on her behalf in respect of her application for an amendment to By-law 574/2000 to expand the permitted area for the licensing of Body-rub Parlours to include the lands and premises municipally known as 1600 Alliance Road, Pickering, Ontario. I would be grateful if you could put this correspondence before the Executive Committee of Council for their consideration prior to the meeting of September 12, 2005. Ms. Trojanowska operates Brock Spa - a licensed Body-rub Parlour at 1600 Alliance Road in the City of Pickering. The establishment existed prior to the passage of By-law 574/2000. It is located just outside the western boundary of the area established by By-law 574/2000 as the permitted area for the licensing of body-rub parlours. The establishment lies approximately 120 feet fi'om the western boundary line which runs through a hydro corridor. Notwithstanding that the tact that the establishment is located just outside the boundary established in By-law 574/2000, the City granted it "grandfathered" status and licensed the activities therein for a period of five years. This grandfathered status is set to expire on December 3 t, 2005. 075 My client is respectfully requesting that you amend By-law 574/2000 so that the grandfhthered status it currently enjoys becomes permanent. In support of the request, my client requests that you kindly consider the following: 1. The establishment has been licensed and operating at its present location for a period exceeding five years; 2. There have been no charges relating to the operation of the business; 3. The premises are zoned industrial and directly abutt the area already designated for the licensing of body-rub parlours; 4. The premises abutts a hydro corridor; 5. There are no schools, daycare centres, recreational centres, parks or places of worship within 120 metres of the premises; 6. The owner of the unit supports this application. Please see attached letter; 7. Seven other unit holders support this application. Please see attached Acknowledgments; 8. The business employs six persons; 9. The proprietor and employees of the business rely on the income earned at the establishment to support themselves and their families. As the business has been operating and licensed lbr approximately five years, the proposed by- law amendment would effectively be a ratification of the status quo. If the by-law amendment is not granted, my client would face the untbrtunate circumstance of closing a viable business and losing her investment therein. We understand that there is an element of discretion in your consideration of this request and graciously request that such discretion be exercised in favour of the applicant. In return, my client promises to continue abiding by By-Jaw 574/2000 and all other relevant rules and regulations and to continue providing quality service and employment in the City of Pickering. We thank you for taking the time to consider these comments. Yours very truly .......... , ' Noel D.

Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer Subject: Cash Position Report as at June 30, 2005 Recommendation: It is recommended that Report CS 64-05 from the Director, Corporate Treasurer be received for information. Services & Executive Summary: The attached schedules provide the City of Pickering's cash position, continuity of taxes receivable, outstanding investments, development charges collected and other development contribution information for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Financial Implications: The cash position of the Corporation for three months ended June 30, 2005 was a net decrease in cash of $2,603,847 to $1,331,796. Sources of Funds totalled $48,350,917 and Use of Funds totalled $50,954,764. Background: The discussion below describes the purpose and the information contained in each of the attached schedules. Statement of Cash Position: Attachment 1 reflects the sources and uses of funds for the second quarter of 2005. Subcategories have been identified to highlight those cash transactions that are significant in nature or large dollar value transactions for the City of Pickering. Continuity of Taxes Receivable: Attachment 2 summarizes the tax related transactions from April 1 to June 30, 2005 and provides the outstanding taxes receivable as at June 30, 2005. This balance represents all three levels of taxes billed, such as City, Region and School Boards. Outstanding Investments: Attachment 3 reflects the short-term and long-term investments for both the Current Fund and the Reserve Funds outstanding as at June 30, 2005. Report CS 64-05 Subject: Cash Position Report as at June 30, 2005 Date: September 1,2005 Page 2 095 Development Charges Collected: Attachment 4 indicates the total development charges for the City, Region and School Boards, as the City is responsible for collecting development charges on behalf of all levels of government. The total amount collected of $679,505 agrees with the balance indicated under Sources of Funds on Attachment 1. However the remittance of development charges to the Region and School Boards indicated under the Use of Funds is different than the total collected on Attachment 4. This variance is a result of timing differences because payments to the Region and School Boards are due 25 days following the month collected. Other Development Contributions: Attachment 5 is provided to show other significant development contributions that have been received. Attachments: 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

PICKERING REPORT TO EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Report Number: CS 69-05 Date: August 31, 2005 From: Debi A. Bentley, CMO, CMM III City Clerk Subject: Application for Minor Variance to Sign By-law 2439/87, as amended Shell Canada Products Limited 935 Liverpool Road, Pickering Recommendation: THAT the application for minor variance to Sign By-law 2439/87, as outlined in Clerks Report 69-05, submitted by Walker, Nott, Dragicevic Associates Limited on behalf of Shell Canada Products Limited, for property municipally known as 935 Liverpool Road, Pickering, BE APPROVED. Executive Summary: An application for a minor variance to Sign By-law 2439/87, as amended, has been submitted by Walker, Nott, Dragicevic Associates Limited on behalf of Shell Canada Products Limited for property municipally known as 935 Liverpool Road, Pickering. Financial Implications: Not applicable Background: An application has been received by Walker, Nott, Dragicevic Associates Limited on behalf of Shell Canada Products Limited, who are the owner and operator of the existing gas bar facility at the southeast corner of Liverpool Road and Bayly Street in the City of Pickering. Applications for minor variance and site plan have been submitted by the applicant in order to facilitate the redevelopment of the site with a new-format Shell gas bar, which includes larger paypoint facilities that offer convenience items in association with the gas bar facility. Report CS 69-05 Application for Variance to Sign By-law August 31, 2005 Page 2 115 As part of the redevelopment, Shell Canada Products Limited is seeking permission to install two pylon signs on the site, one along the Bayly Street frontage and one along the Liverpool Street frontage. A minor variance is required for the two pylon signs that are being requested by the applicant. Pylon signs as defined in By-law 2439/87, as amended, means any sign the surface of which is at least three metres from ground level and supported by one or more poles or other structures. The first variance requested is in relation to Section 10 (5) (b) of By-law 2439/87, wherein it states that no pylon sign shall be located within three metres of any street line. The applicant is requesting that the location of the base of the Bayly Street sign be 1.5 metres from the street line. In their request, the applicant states that this request arises from the proximity to the required hydro transformer, which is located within the same landscaped open area. The applicant further states that due to the depression of Bayly Street, after meeting with Liverpool Road, the grade changes as you move from west to east along the site. This necessitates a guard rail and retaining wall for the Bayly Street portion where the sign is located. The applicant further states that adequate distance is provided so as not to interfere with the road or sidewalk. The second variance requested is in relation to Section 10 (1) (b) of By-law 2439/87, wherein it states that no sign operated electrically shall be facing within 15 metres of those parts of the City of Pickering zoned 'residential'. The applicant states that in this instance the site is zoned Commercial but the surrounding south and east lands are zoned as Multiple Family Residential (RM1). It should be noted that the lands to the south have commercial exception and are currently occupied as a business office. Therefore, the Liverpool Street sign is located approximately 1.5 metres from the south property line and the Bayly Street sign is located approximately 5.0 metres from the east property line. The applicant further states that both signs are located so that they are easily accessible from the paved driveways and parking areas for maintenance by vehicle, as well as adequate space should a ladder be required. Both pylon signs are to be internally lit, and there will not be any adverse lighting effects on the neighbouring properties. The canopy and building have been designed with lighting that directs light downwards and internal to the site. The Director, Planning & Development has reviewed the request submitted by Shell Canada and has no objections. In summary, the municipality is authorized to permit minor variances to their respective sign by-laws in accordance withy Section 99 (5) of the Municipal Act, which states as follows: 'The municipality may authorize minor variances from the by-law if in the opinion of the municipality the general intent and purpose of the by-law are maintained.'

We have recently submitted applications for minor variance and site plan in order to facilitate the redevelopment of the site with a new-format Shell gas bar, which includes larger paypoint facilities that offer convenience items in association with the gas bar facility. As part of that redevelopment, Shell will be seeking permissions to install two pylon signs on the site, one along the Bayly Street frontage and one along the Liverpool Street frontage. We have reviewed Sign By-law 2439-87, as amended, and have determined that we will require variances to construct the proposed signs as requested. The first variance requested is from Section 10 (5) b, where a pylon sign is to be located 3 metres from any street line. In this instance, the location of the base of the Bayly Street sign is proposed 1.5 metres from the street line. This partially arises from the proximity to the required hydro transformer, which is located within the same landscaped open area. Due to the depression of Bayly Street after meeting with Liverpool Road, the grade changes as you move from west to east along the site. This necessitates a guard rail and retaining wall for the Bayly Street portion where the sign is located. This provides adequate distance so as not to interfere with the road or sidewalk. The second variance requested is from Section lO (1) b, where "no sign operated electrically shall be facing within fifteen metres of those parts of the Town of Pickering zoned 'Residential'". In this instance, the site is zoned Commercial, but the surrounding south and east lands are zoned as Multiple Family Residential (RM1). As a result, the Liverpool Street sign is located approximately 1.5 metres from the south property line, and the Bayly Street sign is located approximately 5.0 metres from the east property line. 172 St. George Street Toronto, Ontario M5R 2M7 Tel. 416/968-3511 Fax. 416/960-0172 e-mail: admin@wndplan.com web: www.wndplan.com Peter R. Walker, FCIP, RPP Wendy Nott, FCIP, RPP Robert A. Dragicevic, MCIP, RPP Principals Jason C. Wu, MRAIC, OAA Gregory J. Daly, MClP, RPP Associate Principals Martha Coffey Controller Ms. Debbie Bentley Clerk 118 July 15, 2005 The 15.0 metre separation requirement protects for adequate access, both to repair and alter the signs, and so that the signs do not cast light onto the neighbouring properties. In the proposal, both signs are located so that they are easily accessible from the paved driveways and parking areas for maintenance by vehicle, as well as adequate space should a ladder be required. Fuel pricing is controlled internally from the associated retail building, so any sign alteration would be very limited. Both pylon signs will be internally lit, and there will not be any adverse lighting effects on neighbouring properties. The canopy and building have been designed with lighting that directs light downwards and internal to the site. All these components ensure the goals of the separation distance are maintained. Also of note is the neighbouring dwelling to the south operates as a daytime professional office (doctor) through an exception to the RM1 zone. To the east of the site is a walkway to Poprad Avenue, and the nearest house on Poprad Avenue is rear-lotted to Bayly Street so that it is located further south away from the proposed sign location. In addition, there are large trees on both the eastern sloped area of the site, and within the walkway that provides an additional buffer. We have been advised that the process for the variance is that the Clerk passes a by-law which will bring the necessary variances into force. We have discussed the var;lances with Planning Staff, in particular Geoff Romanowski, who is copied on the letter and is aware of the variances. We have also copied Veera Dimopoulos, who we have been advised enforces municipal by-laws, including the sign by-law. We have enclosed a copy of the site plan, with the sign locations highlighted. Please contact the undersigned or Christian Huggett of this office at your earliest opportunity if you require anything further. We would also request notification if the variances are granted.

PICKERING REPORT TO EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Report Number: CS 70-05 Date: September 1, 2005 Gillis A. Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer Subject: Outstanding Recovery of Water Bomber Costs Recommendation: 1. It is recommended that.Report CS 70-05 of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be received and that: 2. the outstanding account receivable billed to Christopher Burkholder in the amount of $42,532.10 be written off in 2005; and, 3. the appropriate officials of the City of Pickering be authorized to take the necessary action to give effect hereto. Executive Summary: Report CS 47-04 "Outstanding Recovery of Water Bomber Invoices" was presented to Council on December 13th, 2004 and Council decided to refer this issue to the former Solicitor for the City. In August, 2005 upon the hiring of the new City Solicitor this file was passed to him for his consideration and review. In summary he has concluded that: "In my opinion, there is no legal basis upon which the City can recover from Mr. Burkholder the monies paid to the Ministry of Natural Resources for the service of the water bomber fleet." Therefore, it is recommended that Recommendation 2 be adopted and the amount be written off in 2005. Financial Implications: If Council decides to write-off this amount, the expense will be charged to the City for the 2005 fiscal year (Account 2136 - Provision for Accounts Receivable Write-off). The additional expense will be accommodated through unanticipated under expenditures or higher revenues throughout the Corporation during 2005. 122 Report CS 70-05 Subject: Outstanding Recovery of Water Bomber Costs Date: September 1, 2005 Page 2 Background: A bailing machine caught fire in Mr. Burkholder's field located in the City. The fire spread throughout the field and the City's Fire Services Division called the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) air water bomber fleet to control and extinguish the fire. The officer in charge of the firefighting efforts, observed flames approximately 20 feet high and considered there to be a threat to a house, barn and large combines. The fire was extinguished and the City was invoiced by MNR in the amount of $42,532.10 for the services of the water bomber fleet. (The water bomber fleet consisted of: one spotter plane, one water bomber and one helicopter). When the City received the invoice from MNR, the City obtained a legal advice from Mr. Reble as to whether the City should pay the outstanding invoice. Mr. Reble advised that the City should pay the invoice and that the City could recover its costs. Collection Activity.. During the last few years, the City has pursued the collection of the outstanding invoice. The insurance adjuster representing Mr. Burkholder (Kellow & Associates) has been questioning the City's legal authority to bill for the additional costs. The City has provided the documentation supporting the City's position that it has the authority to collect or recovery the costs. The insurance adjuster and Mr. Burkholder's insurance company are resisting payment and basically are stating that the City has "no jurisdiction to recover payment". Using Alternative Collection Avenue Early in 2004, the Director, Corporate Services asked the City's insurance adjuster to assist in the collection of the outstanding invoice. The City's insurance adjuster spoke several times with David Kellow of Kellow & Associates trying to effect a settlement of the outstanding invoice. David Kellow's last position on this issue was that they were not interested in settling and that they were prepared to pursue a legal defence of the claim. Exploring The Fire Protection and Prevention Act (FPPA) as a Collection Tool After the unsuccessful attempt by the City's insurance adjuster, staff wanted to explore alternative non-legal court cost options. One alternative explored was reviewing the Fire Protection and Prevention Act and using the legislative powers through the Fire Marshal's Office. FPPA does allow the Fire Chief to issue an "ORDER" to recover costs incurred by the Municipality. However, the ORDER is issued based on Section 15 of the FPPA. Section 15 provides that if the Fire Chief has reasonable grounds to believe that a risk of fire poses an immediate threat to life, he or she may enter any land or premises for the purpose of removing or reducing the threat and may under 15 (1)(g), do anything he or she has reasonable grounds to believe is urgently required to remove or reduce the threat of life. Staff discussed using this section of FPPA with the City's Fire Chief Mr. Bill Douglas. However, it is the Fire Chief's opinion that Section 15's Report CS 70-05 Subject: Outstanding Recovery of Water Bomber Costs Date: September 1, 2005 1~. ~,.,~ Page 3 intent is to be used to remove a fire threat or possibility of a fire starting and not as a retroactive collection tool. In other words, if there was an unsafe situation such as a huge pile of tires mixed with empty gas cans - the Fire Chief could have an outside contractor clean-up the area and then issue an invoice for the cost of the clean-up to the property owner. The Fire Chief also stated that the Fire Marshall Office has issued very few orders for cost recovery. Conclusion In conclusion this matter has been outstanding for a long time. Several opinions have been provided on the inability to recover beyond the attempts already taken therefore, it is time to bring the matter to a close by writing off the amount of $42,532.10.
