North Part of Lot 18, Concession 1
Part 1, Plan 40R-11779
(South-east corner of Brock Road and Finch Avenue)
Recommendation:
1.
That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 20/00, be APPROVED as set out
in the draft by-law attached as Appendix I to Report No. 21-03, to amend the
existing zoning of the lands to an appropriate commercial zone to accommodate
the expansion of the currently permitted vehicle sales and rental establishment,
on the lands being Part of Lot 18, Concession 1, Part 1, 40R-11779, City of
Pickering.
2.
That the amending zoning by-law to implement Zoning By-law Amendment
Application A 20/00, as set out in Appendix I to Report Number PD 21-03 be
FORWARDED to City Council for enactment.
Executive Summary: The applicant's total land holdings are currently dually zoned
'CA3' - Commercial Automotive and 'A' - Agricultural. The applicant proposes to amend
the agricultural zoning of the subject lands (known as Part 1, 40R-11779), to extend the
existing 'CA3' zoning in order to accommodate additional vehicle storage and/or display
associated with the existing vehicle dealership (see Location Map and Applicant's
Submitted Site Plan, Attachments #1 and #3).
Approval of this application will establish a zoning for the subject lands which is identical
to that of the existing Sheridan Chevrolet vehicle dealership. As this application was not
pursued by the applicant between August 2000 and early this year, a resident meeting
was held in April 2003 to update the community, and notice of this Planning Committee
meeting was circulated to residents within 120 metres of the subject lands. Concerns
from surrounding residents regarding such issues as landscaping, site lighting, access
from Finch Avenue, noise, and stormwater management were raised at the resident
meeting. Measures to address these matters were discussed and will be implemented
through the site plan approval process.
It is recommended that the application be approved, and the draft by-law be forwarded
to Council for enactment.

Discussion
2.1
Subject lands are to be zoned the same 'CA3' zoning as the existing vehicle
dealership
Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 20/00 was submitted in May 2000. At
the time of the original submission, the applicant was proposing to amend the
current "A" Agricultural zoning of the subject lands to an appropriate commercial
zone to accommodate the expansion of the existing vehicle dealership. The
proposal outlined that the expansion was intended to accommodate the
relocation of the used car sales component, and a site plan was submitted
proposing the construction of a 200 square metre sales building to be located on
the subject lands (see Attachment #2). A Public Information Meeting for Zoning
By-law Amendment Application A 20/00 was held on August 10, 2000.
Since the Public Information Meeting held in August 2000, the applicant has
revised the proposed site plan, and is no longer proposing a building at this time.
The applicant now proposes to use the lands for the storage and/or display of
vehicles only. The vehicles to be stored on this site will be associated with the
existing Sheridan Chevrolet vehicle dealership (see Attachment #3).
It is recommended that the subject lands be zoned the same 'CA3' zoning as the
existing vehicle dealership. Even though the applicant is currently proposing to
use the subject lands for the storage and/or display of vehicles only, the
proposed 'CA3' zoning would allow for the future development of the lands in
accordance with provisions outlined in the implementing by-law. However, any
future proposals regarding the development of subject lands would require a
revision to the site plan.
2.2
Resident concerns regarding landscaping, tree preservation, site lighting,
noise, access from Finch Avenue, and stormwater management have been
addressed
At the Statutory Public Information Meeting held in August 2000, residents
expressed comments and concerns regarding such issues as stormwater
management, site lighting, tree preservation, and the use of Finch Avenue for the
testing of vehicles. Several residents wrote letters prior to the meeting stating
many of the same issues as being of concern to them as well.
After the Information meeting, Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 20/00
was temporarily put on hold by the applicant, but has recently been reactivated.
Despite the deletion of the initially proposed sales outlet building, surrounding
residents continued to express similar concerns to those voiced in 2000.

In order to update residents of the changes that have been made to the proposed
site plan, and to further address previous concerns and comments made
regarding this application, Planning & Development Department staff, along with
the applicant and agent, met with residents at a Resident Working Group
Meeting held on April 10, 2003. Below is a list of the issues that were discussed
at the April 2003, meeting and the ways in which the applicant/agent propose to
address each issue through the site plan approval process:
Issues
Tree Preservation and Landscaping
Issue Resolution
- submitted Landscaping Plan indicates that
most trees located along the north lot line
(along Finch Avenue) are to be preserved;
and that some trees from other parts of
the property are to be relocated to help
fill in any gaps;
- hoarding is to be placed around the
trees while the site is being constructed
in order to protect trees;
- lot paving will be set back from north lot
line to avoid damaging the tree roots;
- applicant to replace trees if any die;
- some landscaping will be introduced on
the south side of the subject lands.
Stormwater Management
- the flow of water from the site will
remain consistent before and after
development through the implementation
of stormwater management measures;
- drainage from site is to be directed to
the east side of the subject property,
then north to an existing ditch;
- proposal will not add to the current
stormwater problems that are being
experienced by some of the surrounding
residents.

Site Lighting
- lights from the existing vehicle
dealership located along Kingston Road
are to be relocated onto the subject
lands;
- low level of lighting is proposed, and
lights are to be directed toward the
subject lands, away from residential
properties along Finch Avenue;
- trees to be preserved along Finch
Avenue will help to buffer light;
- proposed lighting is for security only, not
for the display of vehicles.
Noise from Paging System
- no intention of servicing the subject
lands with outdoor speakers.
.
Loading/Unloading of Vehicles Along
Finch Avenue
- the entrance on Finch Avenue is not to
be used as a main entrance for the site;
- this entrance is to provide access for
emergency vehicles and limited
movement of vehicles for sale;
- the proposed entrance along Finch
Avenue is not to be used as a staging
area to load/unload vehicles onto the
site, vehicle deliveries to the site are to
be from Kingston Road.
Staff are satisfied that the matters raised by the community can be satisfactorily
addressed through the site plan approval process.
2.3
By-law to be Forwarded to Council
The attached by-law, included as Appendix I to this report, implements Staff's
recommendation to approve the requested 'CA3' zoning. It is further
recommended that the attached by-law be forwarded to Council for consideration

1.
Tyler Barnett, Planner 1, provided an explanation of the application, as outlined in
Infonnation Report #19-00.
2.
Henry Kortekaas, agent acting on behalf of applicant, advised that a number of
existing trees will be preserved along the northern border of the site. He further
advised that the building to be constructed will be a low profile building and that
the lights will be low and directed away ITom the neighbours to the north.
Smaller trees on the site will be relocated to the southern border.
3.
Gerald Lepard, 1766 Finch Avenue, resident across ITom Sheridan Chevrolet for
the last 15 years advised that he has found this dealership to be a good neighbour
and is pleased that they will be the ones developing this site. His concerns
include the present paging system being expanded to include this site and the
testing of cars along Finch Avenue. He requested that better technology be
implemented to page staff. He stated his pleasure with the planned tree
preservation.
4.
Jim Mason, 1734 Finch Avenue, advised that he lives directly north of the
property. He concurs with the comments made by Mr. Lepard. He requested that
consideration be given by the Police, the Post Office and Sheridan to consider
stonn drainage.
5.
John Bentley, 1770 Finch Avenue, also advised that he concurs with the previous
statements. He stated his concern with the access point onto Finch Avenue ITom
this site and questioned if this will be a major access or will there be an access
onto Kingston Road through the present site.
6.
Jerry Gazarek, applicant, advised that he will investigate a better paging system.
They have attempted not to be intrusive on the neighbours and staff are well
aware that testing of the vehicles is not to take place on Finch Avenue. Access
will be both ITom Finch Avenue and the present site. There will be no sump
pumps on this site.

North Part of Lot 18, Concession 1
Part 1, Plan 40R-11779
City of Pickering
Dear:.Mr. Barnett,
TIus letter is in regard to infonnation stated in Information Report No. 19-00 as well as
items discussed at the public information meeting on August 10, 2000, pertaining to the Zoning
By-law Amendment Application cited above.
We will address each issue that is of particular importance to us:
Landscap& fencing and tree preservation: :Mr. Jeny Gazarek has graciously promised
that the existing bamer of trees will be maintained and even enhanced, particularly in areas where
the present haIrier is sparse. We are very grateful for this as these evergreens provide a pleasant
green vista which we find preferable to a parking lot and which is much more compatible with a
residential neighbourhood. As well these trees absorb some of the noise generated by the ever
increasing traffic on Kingston Rd. and Brock Rd. It is our understanding that it is the
responsibility of the landowner to provide consistent and continuous maintenance of all aspects of
a site plan. \~l e would appreciate being advised as to whether we may assume that this
responsibility applies to this important and much valued tree barrier.
StomH'vatecmanagement: The area to be developed serves as a drainage basin for much of
tiu; adjoining land. At times, particularly tills year, the depth of water h..1s been so significant that it
has been impossible for the postal workers who park along Finch Ave. to gain access to the post
Gñ1ce property by waUci.ng across the vacant area.. I'a\-ing the new parking lot and diverting the
water to the ditch areêl along Finch Ave win further complicate drainage issues for the residents
along the north side ot' Finch. Jv!any of us hmre sump pumps which already work overtÎ111e during
wet seasons. Please consider our need.s deciding on stormVl.later ntanagemf;:nt for this site,
PleaRe adè.;ise us regm'ding this decision.

Zoning: :Mr. Gazarek has been a considerate and approachable neighbour for years. We
are quite comfortable '\-'\I1th the concept of the expanded car dealership as presented by ~1r.
Gazarek. We understand that it is likely that the amended zoning would match the zoning
designation on the existing dealership. It is also our belief that this zoning 1'3 very specific and
limits use of these lands to a vehicle dealership. We are sure that you can understand our
reluctance to contemplate any zoning designation that is more open. We must be protected by the
City in the event that at some point in the future the owner of these lands decides to sell. We must
know that should that possibility arise we would again have all of the protection and involvement
that citizens are given by the planning process. Please let us know if we are in enor regarding any
of the ahove wOlmation.
V./e are very grateful that the process allows us to be heard. Thank you for your time and
consideration.
Sincerely,

PICKERING, ONTARIO
Regarding: A20jOO
Sheridan Chevrolet
Dear Mr. Barnett,
The residents at 1764 and 1766 Finch Avenue would like the city
to consider implementing a "traffic calming zone" for Finch
Avenue in light of the recent proposal from Sheridan Chevrolet.
As you are aware our street, Finch Avenue east of Brock, is a
dead end. This does not however appear to register with some
motor vehicle drivers who attempt to link to Highway 2 and once
cognizant that there truly is no exit, register their frustration
by driving back out at excessive speeds.
Additionally, our street is presently utilized as a parking lot
by neighbouring institutions who have not supplied sufficient on
site parking for their employees. This narrows our "two lane" to
just one during business hours.
