specific exception to the Council Adopted Development Guidelines for the
Rosebank Neighbourhood for the subject property located at 447 Toynevale
Road be received;
2. That should Council determine that there is merit in proceeding with
consideration of the request for a site specific exception to the Development
Guidelines for the Rosebank Neighbourhood, that the Planning & Development
Department be authorized to give notice of the request to property owners within
a 150 metre radius of the subject property, the neighbourhood Ratepayers
Association and applicable external agencies impacted by the proposal, and to
hold an Information Meeting at the December 7, 2009 Planning & Development
Committee Meeting; and
3. Further, that the Planning & Development Department prepare a.
Recommendation Report, following the public consultation process, for the
Planning & Development Committee's consideration early in 2010.
Executive Summary: The Planning & Development Department has received a
request from James Micklewright, the owner of 447 Toynevale Road, located at the
southeast corner of Toynevale Road and Oakwood Drive, (see Location Map -
Attachment #1), for a site specific exception to the Rosebank Neighbourhood
Development Guidelines for the subject property. The proposal is not associated with
another development application requiring Council consideration. The owner is seeking
approval from Council for a site specific exception prior to applying to the Durham
Region Land Division Committee to sever the rear portion of his property to create a
new building lot, and prior to applying to the Committee of Adjustment for relief from
various zoning requirements. Planning Staff is seeking direction from Council to
address the owner's request.
Report PD 28-09 October 5, 2009
Subject: Request for Site Specific Exception to the Council Adopted
g Development Guidelines for the Rosebank Neighbourhood Page 2
Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the
proposed development
Sustainability Implications: The proposed Development Guideline Amendment will
provide the opportunity to create an additional lot from the subject lands, utilizing
existing services.
Background and Proposal Description:
The Planning & Development'Department has received a request from James
Micklewright, owner of 447 Toynevale Road, for a site specific exception to the
Rosebank Neighbourhood Development Guidelines within Design Precinct No. 2 to
permit the creation of an additional building lot from the property, having a depth of
approximately 15 metres (see Location Map - Attachment #1 and Rosebank
Neighbourhood Design Precinct Map - Attachment #2). The provisions of Rosebank
Neighbourhood Guidelines applicable to these lands require new lots to provide a
minimum lot depth ranging between approximately 30 to 36 metres.
The subject property is a corner lot, located at the southeast corner of Toynevale Road
and Oakwood Drive. The lot currently supports one detached residential dwelling, with
a frontage of 15 metres on Toynevale Road, and a depth of approximately 61 metres
along Oakwood Drive (see Location Map - Attachment #1 and Applicant's Submitted
Current Site Plan - Attachment #3). The property is currently zoned `R4' by Zoning
By-law 2511 which requires a minimum lot frontage of 15 metres and lot area of 450
square metres.
The existing lot provides significantly greater depth than the minimum required by the
Development Guidelines. The proposal is to create an additional lot from the surplus
rear yard area, with a wide (30.48 metres) frontage on Oakwood Drive, but a shallow
depth (15.24 metres). The new lot configuration would be similar to a corner flankage
lot, but at an internal location (see Applicant's Proposed Plan - Attachment #4). Both
the proposed severed and retained lots would comply with the R4 zoning with respect to
lot area and frontage, but the new proposed lot fronting Oakwood could not be
developed without variances from current zoning requirements (including but not
necessarily limited to front yard and rear yard depth).

Subject: Request for Site Specific Exception to the Council Adopted
Development Guidelines for the Rosebank Neighbourhood Page 3 89
Discussion:
Requests of this nature are typically considered in conjunction with associated
development applications (zoning by-law amendments/draft plans of subdivision).
However, there are no associated Planning Act applications respecting this
development proposal that will come before Council for consideration.
Should this Development Guideline exception request be approved, the owner intends
to apply to the Durham Region Land Division Committee for severance to create a new
lot, and to the City's Committee of Adjustment to vary multiple zoning performance
standards necessary to accommodate the proposed development.
Staff are bringing this matter forward to the Planning & Development Committee as the
requested exception is a significant deviation from the guidelines and thereby warrants
Council's consideration. The applicant has requested Councils' opinion on this request
prior to submitting other related applications. This is a unique, site specific proposal
and reflects a development scenario that was likely not contemplated at the time the
Development Guidelines were prepared. Consequently, prior to staff preparing
comments on the request, we are seeking- Council's authorization to notify area
residents of the request and seek comments on the matter. Should Council decide
there is merit in considering an exception to the guidelines, we recommend that an
Information Meeting be held for this site specific exception request at the
December 7, 2009 Planning & Development Committee Meeting, and that a
Recommendation Report be forwarded to Planning & Development Committee in early
2010.
As a request for a site specific exception to the Development Guidelines is not an
application under the Planning Act, Council's decision respecting the request is not
appealable to the Ontario Municipal Board. However, if the applicant proceeds with this
development proposal through severance application to the Durham Region Land
Division Committee and variance application to the City Committee of Adjustment, these
related applications will be appealable to the Ontario Municipal Board. It is through
these associated applications that deviation from the Development Guidelines may be
addressed by the Board. A letter submitted by the applicant outlining his proposal is
attached to this report (see Attachment #5).

Attention to: Ashley Yearwood
Address of interest: 447 Toynevale Road, Pickering, ON
This proposal, put forth on this day is to ask for relief of Design Precinct Number 2 and allow for a lot
depth of 15 meters, whereas the normal or regulatory guideline calls for a minimum lot depth of no less
than 30 meters.
My indication here is to request for a lot severance and propose a new frontage of approximately 18 ft
that would face Oakwood Avenue. And furthermore to have a 5 ft rear clearance and a functional
sideyard outdoor activity area of approximately 25 ft by 50 ft.
I have attached a drawing of my intentions and interpretations on my proposal for future reference.
If you have any questions you can reach me at (416) 568-0199.
Sincerely,
~4es Micklewright
