Report PD 46-05 Subject: Gabriela Kepinski (A 20~05) Date: November 10, 2005 Page 3 1.2 Agencies Durham Region Planning Department Toronto & Region Conservation Authority - conforms with Regional Official Plan; - municipal water supply and sanitary sewer are available; no Provincial interests identified (see Attachment #8); located outside of the Fill Regulated Area; no permits are required from the authority; no natural features of concern are on the property; - no objections to the zoning amendment (see Attachment #9); 1.3 City Departments Pickering Fire Services no objection with the applicant's proposal with the understanding that the building meets the requirements of the Ontario Building and Fire Codes (see Attachment #10). 2.0 2.1 2.1.1 2.1.2 Discussion Use and Compatibility Proposed use conforms to the Pickering Official Plan The applicant is proposing to add a body rub parlour as a permitted use. The subject property is designated "Employment Area - General Employment" in the Pickering Official Plan. This designation permits the proposed use to be considered. Approval of the rezoning would conform with the Pickering Official Plan and the Region of Durham Official Plan. The site is suitable for the proposed use The proposed use is compatible with the surrounding land uses. The industrial condominium building site currently provides a total of 248 parking spaces at 1895 Clements Road. Based on City parking requirements of I space per 56 square metres of gross leasable floor area for industrial uses (1895 Clements Road - 11,052.08 square metres), 198 parking spaces are required. Report PD 46-05 Subject: Gabriela Kepinski (A 20/05) Date: November 10, 2005 Page 4 2.1.3 2.2 2.2.1 2.2.2 2.3 2.3.1 Therefore, due to the surplus of 50 parking spaces and offsetting hours of operation from regular business hours, the ability to share parking is possible. There is also the opportunity to share parking with 1885 Clements Road. Furthermore, Durham Condominium Corporation 112-Diamond Swan Ventures Corp. c/o Fred T. Reisman and Associates Limited, has authorized the submission of Zoning By-law Amendment - A 20/05, and advises that they do not object to the rezoning. The proposed body rub parlour use will have minimal impact The proposed use is located in an area of the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood that has no visual presence along the major transportation corridors of Brock Road, Clements Road or Bayly Street. The unit that this business occupies is internal to the site and the signage for the business is within the existing sign band and is similar to the signage of the other units. Rezoning the property to include a body rub parlour as a permitted use would recognize an existing non-conforming use and bring it into compliance. The applicant has advised that the proposed use has operated from 1895 Clements Road for the past five years and through discussions with Municipal Law Enforcement Services and Durham Regional Police Services, the City is not aware of any documented complaints respecting the use. Zoning By-law Performance Standards The proposed by-law will limit the gross leasable floor area It is recommended that the by-law limit the number of body rub parlours at this site to one and that the gross leasable floor area of the body rub parlour use to a maximum of 110 square metres. The intent of limiting the number and size is to ensure that the proposed use does not occupy a significant amount of floor space within the condominium complex, thus becoming a primary use. A mix of uses will be maintained. The existinq by-law will govern all other zoning requirements No further amendments to the current 'MC-12' zoning are proposed or required. The current by-law requirements will continue to apply to the property. Municipal By-law 5764/00 - Body Rub Parlours The proposed body rub parlour complies with the Municipal By-law & licensinq requirements On October 16, 2000, City Council passed Municipal By-law 5764/00, which provides requirements for the licensing and regulating of body rub parlours within the City of Pickering. The by-law includes a provision that restricts the location in which body rub parlours may operate. The restricted area is within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood, subject to a zoning by-law amendment application being approved by the City. Report PD 46-05 Subject: Gabriela Kepinski (A 20/05) Date: November 10, 2005 Page 5 3.0 The subject property is located within the designated area as per Municipal By-law 5764/00 (see Attachment #11). At the time of passage of Municipal By-law 5764/00 the City provided existing body rub parlours a "grandfather status" which permitted the business to obtain a license even though zoning was not approved. This special status expires December 31, 2005. Consequently the applicant is requesting rezoning of the subject property to permit the continuance of the existing business. Applicant's Comments The applicant is aware of the contents of this report, has reviewed the draft zoning by-law, and concurs with the recommendations.

Zoning By-law Amendment Appiication A 20/'05 (Body Rub Parlour) CITY OF PICKERING PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Dear Ms. Bentley: Scripture Union's national offices are at 1885 Clements Road, Units '~' ' ,.,;6 and 227. Sharing our offices are three other organizations: The Shantymen's Christian Association of Canada, Athletes in Action and The Mustard Seed Mission. Two of these organizations work with children and youth and employ female staff and volunteers. It is not unusual for these female staff and volunteers to be on the premises alter business hours. My concern is that the presence of a "bodv rub parlour" in the immediate area may' attract clients that ma5' intimidate our female staff and volunteers. They currently come to the premises and work without any concern for their safety. I do not believe that it is good public policy to amend the by-law to permit this type of operation in the vicinity. I urge the CiD' Council to deny the application. You may be interested to know that in a recent article in the Toronto Star the reporter wrote: "75% of ~_ 0 citT-licensed holistic centres actually operated as brothels or body-rubs" (Toronto Star, July 28, 2005, p. A20). The implication is clear: body-rub parlours are associated with brothels and prostitution and often masquerade as legitimate businesses. I am confident that the Ci~' of Pickering does not want to encourage this type of activity within its boundaries or be associated with such practices. I will attend the meeting on September 15t~' and will be happy to answer any questions related to our concerns. '~:~_.~e_', Sincerely, / The Rex,.

Staff has had an opportunity to review the submission and offers the following comments. Background The subject property is located at 1895 Clements Road, at the southwest corner of Squires Beach Road and Clements Road, in the City of Pickering. It is our understanding that the applicant requests a zoning amendment to permit a body rub parlor as a permitted use. Site-Specific Comments The subject property is located outside the Fill Regulated Area, pursuant to Ontario Regulation 158. Therefore a permit is not required from the TRCA as part of the approval of this application. Furthermore, the building on the subject property already exists and this application represents a change in use only. Th. erefore no natural features of concern to the TRCA wilt be impacted through this zoning amendment application. Recommendations In light of the above, the TRCA has no objections to the zoning amendment application, as submitted. We trust these comments are of assistance. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Susan RoDer~son, Piannir~g Technician at extensiu~ 5370, o~ the undersigned.
