FOR PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING OF
April 19, 2001
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PUBLIC MEETING REQUIREMENTS
OF THE PLANNING ACT, R.S.O. 1990, chapter P.13
SUBJECT: Draft Plan of Subdivision Application SP 2000-04
Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 02/01
Sean Michael Greene
Part of Lot 3, Plan 282
(Rockwood Drive, north of Hogarth Street)
City of Pickering
1.0 PROPERTY LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
the site consists of land assembled from nine developed large lot residential properties
located between Pinegrove Avenue and Woodview Avenue, north of
Rockwood Drive which runs north from Hogarth Street (see Attachment #1 for the
location map);
this site has an area of approximately 1.5 hectares, and includes one existing dwelling
in the north-west corner;
the site is generally level, currently occupied by rear yards maintained by the existing
residential property owners, one detached dwelling and various fencing, accessory
buildings, hedges, trees and other vegetation;
the site is situated between deep lots occupied by detached dwellings fronting onto
Woodview Avenue to the east and Pinegrove Avenue to the west. The site is situated
immediately north of detached dwellings located on the north side of Hogarth Street
and Rockwood Drive.
2.0 APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL
the applicant proposes to develop the subject site with detached dwellings on 15 Lots
with minimum frontages of 15 metres, minimum side yards of 1.2 metres, minimum
front yards of 4.5 metres and maximum lot coverages of 38% of lot areas;
the proposed lots are to have lot depths of between 36 and 67 metres;
the proposed lots are intended to front onto a northerly extension of Rockwood Drive;
the applicant's submitted plan is included as Attachment #2;
new homes would be constructed on all of the proposed lots, with demolition of the
dwelling on the north-west corner required to accommodate new dwellings at that
location.
3.0 OFFICIAL PLAN AND ZONING
3.1 Durham Regional Official Plan
- designates the site as "Living Area" where lands are to be used predominantly for
housing purposes;
Information Report No. 12-01
Page 2
009
3.2 Pickering Official Plan
designates the site "Urban Residential — Low Density Area", located within the
Highbush Neighbourhood;
this designation permits residential uses at a net residential density up to and
including 30 dwellings per net hectare;
- this development proposes a net site density of approximately 12.5 units per hectare,
which is within the permitted density range;
the Official Plan contains a policy that development shall maximize the efficiency of
existing infrastructure and minimize the consumption of vacant land by the addition
of residential units within the South Pickering Urban Area;
the site is within the Highbush Neighbourhood, and is subject to neighbourhood
policies. Those policies include:
• a proposed road connection of the northern part of Rockwood Drive to the
southern part of Rockwood Drive;
• provision of a new local road connection between Woodview and Pine Grove
Avenues through the review of development proposals and in consultation
with land owners;
• encourage development in this area to be compatible with the character of
existing development and preserve significant vegetation. The character to be
considered includes low lot coverage, existing lotting pattern, style and siting
of dwellings and significant mature vegetation. New dwellings and lots
fronting new internal streets are to create density and lot frontage gradients
with development fronting the existing older roads by use of buffering
between the new and existing development, careful establishment of lot lines
and siting of new dwellings to reflect existing building setbacks and yard
depths, and to protect significant vegetation.
all new lots created by this application are to have minimum lot frontages of
approximately 15 metres, and minimum lot depths ranging between 36 and 67 metres;
this proposal will extend Rockwood Drive further north with potential further
extension in the future, if and when similar back -lot infill development proceeds in
the area to the north between this proposed development and the draft approved
Molinaro subdivision.
3.3 Zoning By-law 3036
the site is zoned "R4" — One -Family Detached Dwelling Fourth Density Zone in
By-law 3036;
this zoning permits detached dwellings on lots with minimum frontages of 15 metres
and minimum lot areas of 460 square metres;
amendment to the standard provisions for front yard setback, side yard setback and lot
coverage of the "R4" zoning is required in order to permit this proposal. Table 1, at
the end of this Information Report, shows the standard "R4" provisions and the
applicant's proposal for zoning these lands.
4.0 RESULTS OF CIRCULATION (see Attachments # 3 - 10)
4.1 Resident Comments
- No written comments have been received to date.
4.2 Agency Comments
Durham District School Board - has no objections to the proposal, and indicates that the
eight elementary pupils that could be generated by this development can be
accommodated within existing school facilities (see Attachment #3).
Information Report No. 12-01
010
Page 3
Canada Post - indicates that the existing Community Mailbox site in the area can be
reconfigured to accommodate the new lots in this plan of subdivision (see
Attachment #4).
Durham Catholic District School Board - advises that the Board has no objection to this
plan of subdivision, that these lands fall within the catchment area of St. Monica Catholic
Elementary School and that this development can be expected to yield three elementary
school students (see Attachment #5).
Veridian Connections - advises that electric service is available on the road allowance
touching this property; that a servicing agreement must be signed with the Corporation in
order to obtain servicing; and that the applicant's civil consultant must forward a first
submission civil design so that a preliminary design and estimate can be completed (see
Attachment #6).
Enbridge Consumers Gas - requests a number of conditions be included in the
subdivision agreement. The applicant must agree to co-ordinate preparation of an overall
utility distribution plan, construct streets to municipal standards and satisfy Enbridge
respecting grading of streets and provision of field survey information. Since the natural
gas distribution system will be installed within the proposed road allowances, no
easements will be required (see Attachment #7).
Le Conseil Scholaire de District du Centre-Sud-Ouest - advised that they have no
comments or objections to the proposed subdivision plan (see Attachment #8).
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority - indicates that the subject lands are not
impacted by any natural features under their jurisdiction and that TRCA has no
objections to approval of this application (see Attachment #9).
Hydro One Networks Inc. - indicates that they have no objections to the proposed plan as
presently laid out (see Attachment #10).
4.3 Staff Comments
4.3.1 Preliminary Review of the Draft Plan
a similar subdivision is proceeding to final approval farther to the north (the Molinaro
subdivision that will result in the construction of a further portion of the Rockwood
Drive connection (see Attachment #1). When further development occurs on the
other block north of the Molinaro subdivision, and similar back -lot infill subdivision
occurs between the subject development and the Molinaro subdivision, the northern
and southern parts of Rockwood Drive can be connected;
options for a suitable location for an east -west connection between Pinegrove and
Woodview Avenues will be reviewed, along with the issue of whether it should occur
through the subject lands;
the reasons why the rear lot lines at the eastern edge of the proposed subdivision are
staggered and whether this is appropriate will be evaluated;
the draft plan will be reviewed to ensure that orderly development occurs that is
compatible with the character of the area;
an appropriate use of the 7.62 metre right-of-way currently providing access to the
existing dwelling in the north-west corner of this subdivision will be recommended;
the relationship of Block 55 to the west and this subdivision will be examined;
the proposed variations from the "R4" zoning standards for front yards, side yards
and lot coverage will be evaluated;
appropriate treatment for the rear yard of the lot fronting onto Pinegrove Avenue that
is not part of this subdivision (between proposed Lots #4 and #5) will be evaluated;
a cul-de-sac will have to be constructed at the northern end of the extension of
Rockwood Drive with appropriate setbacks from a new road bulb.
Information Report -No. 12-01
Page4
011
4.3.2 Technical Matters
a tree inventory and preliminary preservation plan, along with a preliminary grading
plan, will be required prior to preparation of Planning recommendations for Council's
consideration;
location of existing buildings and structures on the subject lands must be identified by
the applicant prior to preparation of Planning recommendations for Council's
consideration;
no noise report will be required because this site is sufficiently distant from the
C.N.R. railway line south of Hogarth Street, the high berms along most of the north
side of the railway and the intervening houses provide sufficient noise attenuation for
the subject site.
5.0 PROCEDURAL INFORMATION
written comments regarding this proposal should be directed to the Planning &
Development Department;
oral comments may be made at the Public Information Meeting;
all comments received will be noted and used as input in a Planning Report prepared
by the Planning & Development Department for a subsequent meeting of Council or a
Committee of Council;
if you wish to reserve the option to appeal Council's decision, you must provide
comments to the City before Council adopts any by-law for this proposal;
if you wish to be notified of Council's decision regarding this proposal, you must
request such in writing to the City Clerk.
