Chair: Councillor Pickles
Edith Montgomery, 104 Invergordon Ave. Scarborough, appeared before the
Committee in opposition to Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 28/05,with
respect to an amendment to permit an increase in the floor area of an existing body
rub parlour. Ms. Montgomery stated that parking would be an issue with the
expansion of the business because it already was an issue on the site. She stated
that people were parking along the curb, in the fire route and that all the spaces
were usually full and felt an expansion would increase these problems. She further
noted that the condominium owners were concerned with how much water was
being used for this business. She advised that the Jacuzzi was emptied and refilled
after each client and that clients were told to shower before and after their sessions.
She noted that the condominium had a single meter for the entire building and that
all owners were having to pay for this large amount of water usage. Ms.
Montgomery advised that the owners were not informed of this expansion by the
Condominium Board and that they were in opposition to the letter supporting the
expansion from the Board. She requested that no decisions be made with respect to
the application until they had an opportunity to discuss their cancerns with the
Condominium Board (Durham Condominium Corporation 105).

REPORT TO
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Report Number: PD 25-06
Date: May 8, 2006
Subject: Signing authority for documentation required to release easements
File: L4300
Recommendation:
That the Mayor, City Clerk and City Solicitor be authorized to execute all documentation
necessary to release easements from title that are registered in favour of the City of
Pickering for storm drainage or vehicle / pedestrian access purposes where it has been
determined by the Director, Planning & Development and the City Solicitor that the
easements are no longer required.
Executive Summary: Not Applicable
Financial Implications: There are no new financial implications to the City as a
result of this recommendation.
Background: Past City practice has dictated that, in order to release easements
from title to lands wherein the City has such an interest, documentation must be
forwarded to Council together with a full report explaining the history of the easement, a
site sketch showing its location and a by-law to authorize its release from title.
This process is onerous, time consuming and costly for both the developer/applicant
and the municipality.
In order to increase administrative efficiencies and to enhance customer service in
these situations, it is recommended that a resolution be passed to authorize the Mayor,
City Clerk and City Solicitor to execute all documentation necessary to release from title
easements that are registered in favour of the City of Pickering for storm drainage or
vehicle / pedestrian access purposes where it has been determined by the Director,
Planning & Development and the City Solicitor that the easements are no longer
required. In making this determination, consultation will be undertaken with appropriate
City staff.

- Blocks 26, 27, 28 and 29, Plan 40M-1774, Pickering
- Transfer of Landlocked Blocks to Stonebridge Lane Residents
- File: L4650-019

Report PD 31-06
Date: May 8, 2006
Subject: Disposal of Surplus Lands Page 2
Background: In 1993 the City entered into a Subdivision Agreement with Stolp
Homes regarding the development of Plan 40M-1774. That Agreement provided for the
conveyance of Blocks 26 to 30 to the abutting owners (residents fronting Stonebridge
Lane — Plan M-1017) within 30 days of the registration of the Plan of Subdivision. The
City was provided with copies of the Agreements of Purchase and Sale between Stolp
Homes and the abutting owners, however the conveyances were never finalized by
Stolp, leaving these blocks landlocked and undevelopable (see Location Map,
Attachment #1).
In 2000, Blocks 26 to 29 were acquired by Roni Excavating (a creditor of Stolp Homes) and
Block 30 was acquired by a private individual through a Sheriff's sale. All five (5) blocks
remained in these ownerships until early 2005 when they were processed through the City's
property tax sales procedure. Block 30 was sold to the owner of 591 Stonebridge Lane
through that tax sales process. Blocks 26 to 29 were not sold, and transferred to the
ownership of the City.
On November 7, 2005, Resolution 203/05 was passed by Pickering Council concurring
with the recommendation of the Chief Administrative Officer to proceed with declaring
Blocks 26 to 29 surplus to the needs of the Corporation and conveying them to the
abutting owners fronting Stonebridge Lane as set out in the Subdivision Agreement
entered into in 1993 (see Resolution, Attachment #2).
City staff have been in contact with the landowners on Stonebridge Lane and all parties
are interested in the acquisition of these blocks, for nominal consideration. It should be
noted that the owners of 721 Sandcastle Court have submitted correspondence
Expressing an interest in acquiring Block 29, 40M-1774 and merging it with their
easterly-abutting property (see Attachment #3).
Accordingly, to implement the direction provided through Resolution 203/05, a
Resolution should be passed to:
(a) declare the lands described as Blocks 26, 27, 28 and 29, Plan 40M-1774 surplus
to the needs of the Corporation for the purpose of sale, for nominal
consideration, to the abutting owners fronting Stonebridge Lane; and
(b) authorize the Mayor, City Clerk, Director, Planning & Development and the City
Solicitor to obtain all relevant documentation and execute all documentation
required to effect the sale of Blocks 26, 27, 28 and 29, Plan 40M-1774, subject
to any required easements.

neighbourhood [MG_1948.]P9 (220
plan.pdf (1 MB) KB)
Mr. Taylor,
My wife and I have owned the property adjoining east of block 29 (roll '
no. 010029231050000, see attached pdf reference map) for 12 years.
Over that period the City has sold through bankruptcy proceedings, been
owed taxes on, and is now in the process of declaring the land surplus.
In short, the City has been unable to attract`interest to buy this
land from any of the adjoining properties, untii now. Council is now
in the process of declaring the land surplus, and has advised City
: staff to convey this block to the adjoining property on Stonebridge Dr.
Council's direction to staff was to return the properties to the
Stonebridge residents as intended in the original subdivision plan.
This rationale is not entirely correct. My recollection in speaking
with the property owners on Stonebridge and with the Sandcastle
`subdivision developer representative (Stolp Homes) was that a large
retaining wall along this'strip would have provided a terraced, leveled
extension to the properties on Stonebridge. Stolp Homes reneged on
this plan, and obtained permission from the city to grade the lots to a
2:1 slope. This decision made it acceptable for'my wife and I to by
tlie adjoining property at 721 Sandcastle Crt, as the steep block
provided a sufficient privacy buffer from the extreme difference in
elevation between the two properties (see photo below). Subsequent
actions by the City to sell block 29 in order to manage the issues
arising over the ownership of this block was ignored by both ourselves
and the property owner on Stonebridge because the property has no
useful function, and we believed that the City resolution would
encompass all of the adjoining properties. Given the City is now
proceeding to convey block 29 to the property on Stonebridege, we have
since acquired an interest in joining block 29 to 721 Sandcastle Crt.
Consistent with our written requests over the past year we request that �
the City:'
1. convey block 29 to us, the owners of 721 Sandcastle Crt., (for
which we would be willing to pay the legal costs), or
2. allow us to purchase block 29 at a reasonable cost.
In closing, I would ask that the City reconsider its decision to convey
block 29 to the adjoining property on Stonebridge, as it does not
satisfy the original intent of the subdivision. I believe that the
appropriate action for Council is to direct the City to offer block 29
for sale to all of the adjoining lots.
Yours sincerely,
Lawrence Servos, P.Eng.
Beverly Hendry, M.Sc.

REPORT TO
COUNCIL
Report Number: CAO-01-06
Date: May 8, 2006
Subject: Proposed Transfer/Conveyance of Portions of Old Taunton Road
- Between Brock Road and Taunton Road
- Files: L-4650-004, L-4640-011 and L-4640-012
Recommendations:
1. That Council authorizes staff to effect the transfer of that part of Old Taunton Road
identified as Part 1, Plan 40R-23354 to the City of Pickering from the Region of Durham.
2. That Council deems that part of Old Taunton Road identified as Parts 1 and 2, Plan 40R-
24188 as surplus to the needs of The Corporation for the purpose of conveyance to the
Region of Durham, and authorizes staff to effect the transfer of those lands back to the
Region of Durham from the City of Pickering.
3. That Council authorizes staff to effect the transfer of the appropriate east portions of Old
Taunton Road, currently identified as Parts 1 to 5, Plan 40R-15548, to the City of Pickering.
Executive Summary: The Region is prepared to transfer to the City a central portion of
Old Taunton Road that is still under Regional ownership between Brock Road and the new
Taunton Road. The proposed lands to be transferred are identified as Part 1, Plan 40R-
23354. It is recommended that Council authorize staff to effect the transfer of this portion of
Old Taunton Road into City ownership.
Through the Region's detailed review and design of the underpass alignment at the Brock
Road/Old Taunton Road intersection, they have determined that a small western portion of Old
Taunton Road previously transferred to the City in 2001 is required to be transferred back into
their ownership. The portion of Old Taunton Road being requested from the City is identified
as Parts 1 and 2, Plan 40R-24188. It is recommended that Council deem these lands surplus
to the needs of The Corporation, and authorize staff to effect the conveyance of this small
portion of Old Taunton Road back to the Region for nominal consideration.
There still remains an eastern portion of Old Taunton Road that the City requires to complete
the transfer of ownership for all of Old Taunton Road (between Brock Road and the new
Taunton Road) into City ownership. It is recommended that Council authorize staff to effect
the transfer of the remaining desired portions of Old Taunton Road to the City at no cost.
Report CAO-01-06
V��
Date: May 8, 2006
Subject: Transfer/Conveyance of Portions of Old Taunton Road Page 2
Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the
proposed land transfers.
Background:
Old Taunton Road (between Brock Road and the new Taunton Road) is intended to function
as a City-owned and maintained local road. The City currently owns a western portion of this
road, and the Region of Durham and Province of Ontario currently own other portions.
Following the successful transfer of all of the remaining portions of Old Taunton Road into City
ownership, staff will be recommending to Council the renaming of this road allowance.
Western Portion of Old Taunton Road
In 2001, the Region of Durham transferred a western portion of Old Taunton Road to the City
as Phase 1 of the contemplated ownership transfer of all of Old Taunton Road to the City (see
Location Map - Attachment #1).
Through the Region of Durham's detailed review, design and current implementation of the
underpass alignment at the Brock Road/Old Taunton Road intersection, they have determined
that a small portion of Old Taunton Road previously transferred to the City of Pickering in 2001
is now required to be transferred back into their ownership (see Location Map — Attachment
#1). The portion of Old Taunton Road being requested from the City is specifically identified
as Parts 1 and 2, Plan 40R-24188. The west portion of these lands will remain in Regional
ownership to support the realigned road infrastructure. The east portion of these lands may
ultimately be transferred to the adjacent private landowners to provide them with more road
frontage following completion of the road realignment/underpass works.
City Staff has confirmed that these lands are not required by the City, and should be
transferred back to the Region of Durham for the prescribed nominal fee as agreed upon
between the City and the Region through an existing reciprocal agreement for road widenings.
It is recommended that Council deem these lands surplus to the needs of The Corporation,
and authorize staff to effect the transfer of these lands back to the Region of Durham for
nominal consideration.
Central Portion of Old Taunton Road
The Region of Durham is now prepared to transfer to the City a central portion of Old Taunton
Road as Phase 2 of the contemplated ownership transfer of all of Old Taunton Road to the
City. These lands are identified as Part 1, Plan 40R-23354 (see Location Map — Attachment
#1). City Staff has confirmed that these lands, as described, are appropriate to transfer into
City ownership. It is recommended that Council authorize staff to effect the transfer of this
portion of Old Taunton Road into City ownership.
Eastern Portion of Old Taunton Road
In order to complete the third and final phase of the ownership transfer of Old Taunton Road, it
is recommended that Council authorize staff to effect the transfer the remaining east portion of
Old Taunton Road to the City. These lands are currently identified as Parts 1 to 5, Plan 40R-

Report CAO-01-06
Subject: Transfer/Conveyance of Portions of Old Taunton Road
Date: May 8, 2006
Page 3
15548 (see Location Map — Attachment #1) and are owned by the Province of Ontario. A
preliminary review by City Staff has confirmed that portions of this remaining part of Old
Taunton Road are needed to complete the City's ownership between Brock Road and the new
Taunton Road. The process to transfer the lands to the City will include a detailed review of
the extent of actual lands needed to be transferred, land title searches and updated survey
work. It is the responsibility of the Region of Durham to coordinate the transfer of these lands
into City ownership, in consultation with the City.
It is recommended that Council authorize staff to effect the transfer of the remaining eastern
part of Old Taunton Road to the City of Pickering. The exact extent of the lands to be
transferred are to be determined through a detailed review by Region and City Staff, and will
not include lands beyond those currently described as Parts 1 to 5, Plan 40R-15548.

PICKERING Report Number: CS 24-06
Date: May 8, 2006
From: Gillis A. Paterson
Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer
Subject: 2006 Annual Repayment Limit for Debt and Financial Obligations
Recommendation:
That this report be forwarded to Council for information.
Executive Summary: Not applicable
Financial Implications: Not applicable
Background: Recently, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH)
provided information regarding the City's 2006 Debt and Obligation Repayment Limit.
Debt for these purposes includes all forms of loans, leases and other long term financial
obligations and commitments. The 2006 Annual Repayment Limit (ARL) was
calculated based on 25 percent of 2004 net own-source revenues as reported in City of
Pickering's 2004 Financial Information Report (FIR) submitted to the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH). The FIR was prepared in conjunction with the
annual financial statements. Own-source revenues represent generally the
discretionary revenues of a municipality including property taxes, user fees, licenses
and fines and exclude all grants, internal transfers and extraordinary items such as the
one time sale of land or other fixed assets and non-discretionary items such as
development charges.
The calculated 2006 ARL based on 25% of net revenue fund, after taking into account
net debt charges reported to MMAH is $11,875,565. This is based upon the 2004
Financial Information Return. Based on the 2006 Budget, the total annual principal and
interest charges and all other financial obligations as recorded in the City's books are
$3,391,447 out of which $1,806,294 for external debt has been reported to the MMAH
as required. Taking into account the difference of $1,585,153 ($3,391,447 -
$1,806,294), being the amount included in the City's books for additional annual
charges pertaining to 2005 borrowings ($765,617), estimated committed annual
charges for 2006 budgeted loans and debentures ($633,317) and the balance for
photocopiers contracts, internal telephone lease, and dealer financing of small
vehicles, the net ARL available for 2006 would have to be reduced to $10,290,412.
Report CS 24-06 Date: May 8, 2006 �� 4�
Subject: 2006 Annual Repayment Limit for Debt
and Financial Obligation
Page 2
The net ARL of $10,290,412 for 2006, as adjusted, represents the maximum additional
principal and interest payment for the year that could be undertaken without Ontario
Municipal Board approval. This calculation does not measure affordability nor take into
account other commitments the City may have and the need to change levels of service
or raise property taxes to maintain the debt repayment amount. This limit represents the
maximum amount which the municipality has available for approval and certification by
the Treasurer as of December 31, 2004 to commit to payments relating to debt and
financial obligations. The limit is effective January 1, 2006.
For illustration purposes, if the City could borrow at 7%, the rate used by MMAH in the
calculation, the net ARL of $10,290,412 would allow it to undertake additional long
term borrowing as follows:
Terms
a) 5 years
b) 10 years
c) 15 years
d) 20 years

CORP0228-2/02
3. Comments from Members of the Public
Cy Durdle
1497 Altona Rd.
Mr. Durdle is a 20 year resident of the subject area. He agrees with the development,
but expressed concerns in the area of:
. Water drainage — there are problems now, will they be addressed properly.
• Lots sizes are too small for the existing neighborhood.
• If new road is built, will it be private.
• Service, i.e. snow removal for new road.
• Proposed access will create traffic problems.
• Safety for school in the area.
• Fencing — on Altona Rd.?
David Goulding
283 Richardson St.
Mr. Goulding expressed concerns that if the applicant makes changes to his original
proposal that the public will not be notified of these changes. In addition he
expressed the following concerns:

• Proposed access will create traffic problems.
• Safety for school in the area.
Len Scavuzzo
1478 Altona Rd. Rd.
Mr. Scavuzzo had grave concerns with respect to water run-off. He is now
experiencing major problems on his property and has hired an independent firm to
check out the foundation of his home to see if water has structurally damaged his
foundation. He stated that in his opinion the builder of the new subdivision will not
properly address the water run-off issues and his property will be in a"valley" with
water draining directly onto his property. Mr. Scavuzzo brought pictures of his
property and was invited to speak with members of the Planning Department after the
meeting.
Anna Agraso
307 Tomlinson Crt.
Ms. Agraso expressed concerns as follows:
. Lots sizes are too small for the existing neighborhood.
• Property values will decrease.

• Proposed access will create traffic problems.
• Safety for school in the area.
• City will change by-law without notifying anyone in the area.

Monica' s Separate School due to increased traffic pattern.
Debbie & Jim Coughlin
278 Richardson St.
Mr. & Mrs. Coughlin did receive notification of the proposal and of the meeting,
however, their written comments are not noted. They do agree with the development

clarification whether the access will be from Altona Road or Richardson St. The
height of any fencing that would go up was also a concern and asked staff for
clarification of the fencing height restriction by-law.

• If a new road is built will it be private or public.

• If new by-law is passed what are the boundaries it will effect.
Mr. & Mrs. Seres
306 Sheppard Ave.
Mr. & Mrs. Seres are very concerned with the lot sizes of the subdivision. The
esthetics are not compatible with the existing large homes. They requested that the
builder re-size the lots. They also expressed safety concerns about placing a house
on Plan site # 10.

commitment with respect to widening Altona Road and the continuation of Richardson
Street.

work very closely with the School Board to address safety issues regarding access
road and also address esthetic issues raised this evening, i.e.: fencing, trees. She
further assured that new signs would be erected.

to widen Altona Road notification of that proposal will go out to the public to advise of

notification will be expanded from the present radius.

1. Planner Comments
Rick Cefaratti, Planner II provided an overview of the property location, applicant's
proposal and City's Official Plan policies pertaining to this site, as outlined in the
Information Report # 06-06. He stated that to date no comments/concerns have been
received from outside agencies or the public.
2. Applicant Comments
lan McCullogh, authorized agent for Marshall Homes, explained the proposal as
outlined in the Information Report # 06-06. He stated that the owner would construct
a windmill on these lands to conform to the esthetics of the Waterfront Place.
3. Comments from Members of the Public
Sylvain Trepanier
1218 Monica Cook PI.
Mr. Trepanier was not sure whether or not he supported the recommended rezoning
as he felt to date there has not been enough information available to the public to
make a proper assessment. He further expressed a concern that the Statutory Public
Information Meeting was of no value as he felt the recommended by-law would now
go before Executive Committee for the recommendation to be enacted.
Mr. Trepanier had additional concerns as follows:
• Road ownership, public or private?
• Ownership of the land is fragmented, some public some private-how will that
be addressed?
• What is passive recreation use?
• Will the proposed windmill block the view from the Bay?
• Which Official Plan does the proposal conform to Durham or Pickering?
• Middle is a public road, will this remain public and if so will a fence be erected.
Lastly, Mr. Trepanier asked for reassurance from The City of Pickering that additional
information will be forthcoming and that the residents will be kept informed as this
aoes forward.
Page 5
CORP0228-2/02
4. Response from Applicant
lan McCullogh, authorized agent of Marshall Homes confirmed that at present there is
fragmented ownership of the lands and that ownership consolidation is being
addressed and will be finalized very shortly. He further stated that before this project
goes forward, there would be conceptual drawings submitted to The City of Pickering.
5. Staff Response
Rick Cefaratti advised that the proposed plan conforms to the Durham Official Plan
which permits a mix of uses including marina, parks, recreational, tourist, cultural and
community uses.
6. Comments from the Chair
Councillor Brenner assured Mr. Trepanier that the purpose of the Statutory Public
Information Meeting was to gather information from the public on the proposal and
that no proposal will be put before Executive or Council until all interested parties are
heard and that all concerns are addressed. He further stated that for this particular
proposal there is not sufficient information to make a recommendation either for or
against and that a Site Plan which addressed issues such as road access and
conformity to the Waterfront Plan, needs to be approved before this proposal can go
forward. He further suggested that Planning and Development, Lynda Taylor, should
follow-up with the Waterfront Coordinating Committee and host an open meeting to
address all issues raised this evening. Lastly, he stated that a second Statutory
Public Information Meeting may be needed before a decision to approve or deny this
application can be made.
The meeting adjourned at 9:15 pm.
