City of Pickering
1.0 Background
the Central Pickering Development Plan (CPDD) identifies 15 separate
residential neighbourhoods and a large employment area along both sides of
Highway 407 together with an extensive Nature Heritage System (NHS)
within the Seaton Urban Area
the City was in the process of undertaking the Seaton Neighbourhood
Planning Review during 2010 when the major developers (the Seaton
Landowners) appealed their neighbourhood plan, subdivision plan and
rezoning applications to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB). Subsequently,
the Office of the Provincial Development Facilitator became involved
the facilitation resulted in the execution of Minutes of Settlement between the
Seaton Landowners, the Province of Ontario (including Ontario Realty
Corporation (ORC)), the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA)
and the City of Pickering. The Minutes of Settlement resulted in the
preparation of a Conformity Amendment to the Pickering Official Plan. This
amendment would bring the POP into Conformity with the CPDP
the Seaton Conformity Amendment (which is the subject of an upcoming
Ontario Municipal Board hearing for approval) established new boundaries for
the purpose of preparing Neighbourhood Plans; these new boundaries
combined the smaller residential areas, together with the employment area
and the NHS; six urban neighbourhoods are identified (see Seaton Urban
Area Neighbourhoods —Attachment #1)
as part of the Minutes of Settlement ORC agreed to submit Neighbourhood
Plans for their lands within Seaton, being Neighbourhoods 17, 20 and 21

"Natural Heritage System", "Mixed Corridor Type 2" and "High Density Area"
• other symbols shown on the neighbourhood plan include a "Village Green".
located within a development block southeast of Taunton Road and Brock
Road; three "Gateway" sites at the northwest, northeast and southeast
corners of Brock Road and Taunton Road; a "Stormwater Management Pond

range of between 141 to 250 units per net hectare that would permit a
combination of low-rise walk-up apartments and mixed-use residential
apartments

neighbourhood proposes a density range of between 40 to 80 units per net
hectare
