3. Applicant's Proposal
• the applicant proposes to rezone the subject property from a rural agriculture
zone to a residential zone to facilitate the creation of two new detached lots
fronting Rosebank Road and Broadoak Crescent, and the extension of
Broadoak Crescent
• the applicant also proposes the creation of five part lots intended to be
combined with the adjacent lands to the north (1716 Broadoak Crescent) and
to the south (1793 Rosebank Road) for future residential lots fronting onto
Rosebank Road and Broadoak Crescent as shown on Applicant's Submitted
Plan, Attachment#2
• the overall concept plan proposes a total of nine lots for detached dwellings;
five fronting Broadoak Crescent and four fronting Rosebank Road
• the lands immediately to the north and to the south are not part of the subject
application
• the applicant is also requesting Council's authorization to create the lots
through land division instead of through a plan of subdivision, since more than
three lots are intended to be created
4. Policy Framework -
4.1 Durham Regional Official Plan
• the Regional Plan designates the subject property as "Living Area" and shall
be used predominately for housing and related uses
• the plan states that "Living Areas" shall be developed in compact form
through higher density and by intensifying and redeveloping existing areas
• the applicant's proposal will be assessed against the policies and provisions
of the Durham Regional Official Plan
4.2 Pickering Official Plan
• the Official Plan designates the lands as "Urban Residential Areas - Low
Density Areas" within the Amberlea Neighbourhood
• this designation is intended primarily for housing and related uses
• the Official Plan states that in establishing performance standards regard
shall be had for protecting and enhancing the character of established
neighbourhoods by considering matters such as building height, yard
setbacks, lot coverage, access to sunlight, parking provisions and traffic
implications
Information Report No. 02-13 Page 3
• Low Density Areas permit a density of up to 30 units per net hectare; the
ultimate proposal of nine lots would have a net residential density of
approximately 20 units per net hectare
• Section 15.26 (b) states that City Council shall limit the creation of lots for
residential purposes by land severance to a maximum of three, and require
that an ownership of land capable of being divided into more than three
additional lots be developed by a plan of subdivision, except where it is
demonstrated to Council's satisfaction that a plan of subdivision is neither
appropriate nor necessary in which case Council may authorize the
development to proceed by land severance
• the application will be assessed against the policies and provisions of the
Pickering Official Plan during further processing of the application
4.3 Zoning By-law 3036
• the property is currently zoned "A" — Rural Agriculture Zone, within Zoning
By-law 3036, as amended which permits various agriculture uses as well as
