BACKGROUND
the existing convenience store began operating during 2003, the subsequent
non-compliance with the current Zoning By-law was brought to the attention
of the City, which lead to the submission of the Zoning By-law amendment
application.
OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING
Durham Reqional Official Plan
the Durham Regional Official Plan identifies the property as being within the
'Main Central Area' designation;
'Main Central Areas' should be developed as the main concentrations of
urban activities within area municipalities providing a fully integrated array of
community, office, service and shopping, recreational and residential uses;
Pickerinq Official Plan
- the Pickering Official Plan identifies the subject property as being designated
'Downtown Core' within the Town Centre Neighbourhood;
- this designation, among other uses, permits the retailing of goods and
services;
- land uses, including limited retailing of goods and services, are intended to
take place at the greatest scale and intensity in the city, serving Citywide and
regional levels;
Zoning By-law 373/76
the subject property is currently zoned "ClS"- Local Commercial Specific by
By-law 373/76;
the current zoning only permits an eating establishment use;
an amendment to the Zoning By-law is therefore required in order to
implement the applicant's proposal to add a convenience store to the subject
property.

We acknowledge receipt of the above noted applications and offer the following comments.
A review shows plans to construct a Townhouse Development on the subject lands. The lands

Regional Storm Event. Under the SPA policies new development is permissible within the
Regional Storm Floodplain subject all structures being floodproofed and the development
being design to withstand the flood depths and velocities associated with a Regional Storm.
We note that a permit would be required under Ontario Regulation 158 for construction within
the Regional Storm Floodplain.
In support of the application, TRCA staff have received a hydrogeological report, an
environmental report and a functional servicing report. The reports are currently being
reviewed by technical staff and given the volume of reports currently under review, we request
additional time to review the reports. Given this, we are not in a position to provide detailed
comments at this time.
We trust that this is satisfactory. If you have any questions please contact the undersigned at

Supermarket) located in Units 1 and 2 of Building B on the subject property;

under the current zoning, and this Zoning By-law Amendment Application was
submitted;
further to a site check done of the subject property, the owner was notified

the uses permitted under the current zoning by-law;
the owner has recently included 'Retail Store' as another additional use to be
included as part of this application.
