Harry Gerlach
2050 Dixie Road
(South Part of Lot 25, Concession 2)
City of Pickering
Recommendation:
1.
That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 25/03 be APPROVED, subject to
conditions outlined in Appendix I to Report PO 16-04, to amend the zoning of the
subject property from 'A' - Rural Agricultural Zone to 'S2' - Single Detached
Dwelling Zone in order to permit future residential development with minimum lot
frontages of 13.5 metres, on lands being, South Part of Lot 25, Concession 2,
City of Pickering, submitted by the owner/applicant Harry Gerlach.
2.
That the amending zoning by-law to implement Zoning By-law Amendment
Application A 25/03, as set out in Appendix II to Report PO 16-04 be
FORWARDED to City Council for enactment.
Executive Summary: The subject property is located on the north-west corner of
Dixie Road and Colonial Street and currently supports a one-storey detached dwelling
and frame shed (see Attachment #1 - Location Map). The applicant proposes to
amend the existing 'A' - Rural Agricultural Zone, which requires a minimum lot frontage
of 60 metres and a minimum lot area of 0.8 hectares, to 'S2' - Single Detached
Dwelling Zone which requires a minimum lot frontage of 13.5 metres and a minimum lot
area of 400 square metres. The lands are proposed to be redeveloped in conjunction
with the southerly abutting City owned lands, for future residential development fronting
Colonial Street (see Attachment #2 - Applicant's Submitted Plan).
Approval of this zoning by-law amendment will establish a zoning for the subject
property which is consistent with the existing zoning established for properties fronting
Colonial Street (see Attachment #3 - Zoning Map). Proposed development is
compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood and conforms to the Pickering Official
Plan.

The main concerns expressed by the residents included:
. the subject property could be used for an alternate land use, such as a
park (see Attachments #6 and #7, Resident Comments);
. traffic issues;
. tree removal;
. safety concerns regarding construction of homes; and
. ensuring that the proposed development is compatible with
surrounding existing residential development.
Resident Comments in Support

such as a park. They would prefer to see the subject property be used for
residential purposes (see Attachments #8 and #9 - Applicant's Comments, and
Attachment #10 - Resident Comments).

Discussion
2.1
The proposed development is compatible with surrounding development,
and the subject property is to be zoned 'S2'
It is recommended that the subject property be zoned the same 'S2' residential
zoning as the existing development located on the north and south sides of
Colonial Street (see Attachment #3). This zoning would permit future residential
development with minimum lot frontages of 13.5 metres and minimum lot areas
of 400 square metres.
The applicant has also submitted a request to purchase the City owned lands
immediately south of the subject property to enable creation of up to four lots by
land severance (see Attachment #2). The City owned lands are zoned 'S2' -
Single Detached Dwelling Zone and were pre-zoned 'S2' when the original
abutting plan of subdivision was approved. This zoning was established in
anticipation of the subject property and the City owned lands being developed
together in a coordinated fashion for residential purposes.
It is anticipated that the applicant or future owner will submit a land severance
application to the Region of Durham Land Division Committee. This land
severance application will have the potential to create a maximum of four lots
with minimum lot frontages of 13.5 metres. A site plan showing the anticipated
future severances is provided for reference (see Attachment #2).
The proposed zoning of the subject property is identical to that of the City owned
lands and to the properties located on the north and south sides of Colonial Street.
This zoning provides the opportunity for future development that is compatible
with surrounding lands, and maintains the design and character of the area.
2.2
Request by area residents for the City to purchase the subject property and
construct a park in combination with the City owned lands
Area residents have requested that the City purchase the subject property and that
it be developed in conjunction with the City owned land for park purposes. The
Municipal Property and Engineering Department has reviewed this request and
does not support a park at this location (see Attachment #15 - Municipal Property
& Engineering Division Comments). Given the close proximity of Lynn Heights
park, the residential zoning of the City's land, and the clear intention since the
registration of Plan 40M-1350 to develop this land for residential purposes, it is not
appropriate to pursue this property for park purposes.
Report PO 16-04
Subject: Harry Gerlach (A 25/03)
Date: March 26, 2004
Page 5
Council declared the City owned lands as surplus on March 22, 2004, and
sanctioned the sale of the lands to the northerly abutting land owner.
Future development of the subject property is conditional upon the owner receiving
approval from City Council to purchase the City owned lands, and consolidating
them with the subject property. It is appropriate to rezone the subject lands at this
time, to allow for future residential development of the lands in a consolidated
fashion.
2.3
All matters of development can be addressed through a '(H)' Holding
Symbol provision within the zoning by-law and as conditions through any
associated future land severance application
In order to protect the City's interests and address appropriate development, it is
recommended that the implementing zoning by-law include an '(H)' Holding
Symbol restricting the use of the land to its current single detached dwelling use
while the '(H)' is in place. The '(H)' Holding Symbol provision will remain in place
until the applicant or future owner receives approval from City Council to purchase
the City owned lands (Block 114, Plan 40M-1350), consolidates the parcel with the
subject property and enters into an appropriate development agreement with
the City.
These conditions, in addition to others, are generally outlined in Appendix I, and
will address requirements of the Planning and Development Department, the
Municipal Property & Engineering Department and the Region of Durham. The
conditions address matters such as, but not limited to: prohibiting future access
onto Dixie Road, Dixie Road widening, grading, architectural design, and
securities.
2.4
By-law to be forwarded to Council
The attached by-law, included as Appendix II to this report, implements Staff's
recommendation to approve the requested 'S2' residential zoning. It is further
recommended that the attached by-law be forwarded to Council for enactment
(see Appendix II).

HARRY GERLACH
2050 DIXIE ROAD
.(SOUTH PART OF LOT 25. CONCESSION 2)
Perry Korouyenis, Planner 1, provided an overview of property location,
applicant's proposal and City's official plan policies pertaining to this site, as
outlined in Information Report #04/04.
Murray Mawson, 1019 Colonial Street, advised that he forwarded a letter to the
Director, Operations & Emergency Services on January 21/04 requesting that
an amount of $400,000 be included in the 2004/05 budget to purchase the
property known as 2050 Dixie Road to be used for park purposes. He advised
that there are many advantages to this which include the elimination of the
need to relocate fire hydrant, Canada Post Superbox and newspaper pads, no
need to dig up roads for hydro, water and cable connections, no curb cutting.
This is a high profile location with a 4-way stop sign, a perfect location for a
park. This provides Hydro One with an opportunity to donate to the purchase of
this land in a good will gesture to pay back the community for the spill last
summer. There would be little or no crime in the park as the residents are good
observers. This park is supported by the residents, Councillors Holland,
McLean and Ashe.
David Burton, 1025 Colonial Street, echoed Mr. Mawson's comments and
advised that he wished Mr. Gerlack all the best. He requested the City act
quickly in order that Mr. Gerlack could move ahead with his life. He distributed
and discussed the parks and facilities in surrounding area's pointing out the
lack of facilities and equipment in their neighbourhood. He suggested that Mr.
Mawson has come up with an excellent idea that the entire neighbourhood
could enjoy.

Deborah McLeod, 1007 Colonial St., advised that this is the first time she has
heard of Mr. Mawson's and Mr. Burton's suggestion but is in total support.
Colonial Street is a very congested street and this would just create more
traffic. She advised that she is not looking forward to the construction and does
not want to see the trees removed from the site. She also is concerned that the
homes would not be similar to those in the area, therefore, decreasing the
value of the properties and destroy the character of the area. She further
advised that children use Colonial Street as their route to school.
Mr. Gerlack, applicant, advised that the proposed homes would enhance the
area and that the spacing is adequate as the lots are long.
Lynda Taylor, Manager, Development Review, advised that the disposition of
the land will be dealt with separately and will be handled by Economic
Development. She suggested that residents call Mr. Ron Taylor, Economic
Development Officer to find out the timing of this item. She further advised that
land disposition will be dealt with in March and zoning in April.

Re: 2004/05 Budget Inclusion
PROPOSAL TO PURCHASE PROPERTY KNOWN AS
2050 DIXIE ROAD - CITY OF PICKERING
Dear Mr. Buntsma,
This letter is to request formally that you write into your 2004/05 operating budget plan,
an amount of $400,000.00 to purchase the property known as 2050 Dixie Road, City of
Pickering.
The present owner has an application registered with the City's Planning Department to
rezone the agricultural property. The plan is to sub-divide to construct four homes. The
sale of land allows him to move to British Columbia in retirement.
The City of Pickering has a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to purchase this high profile
property and turn it into a beautiful park that present and future generations living in our
City can appreciate and enjoy.
To date, I have spoken with Councillors Holland, McLean and Ashe. All are in favour
and recommended that I make this request.
Many thanks in advance for your support.
Sincerely,
,::;-::.::::J7, ," .' ."-e<,,,,':;' ,""

PROPOSAL
THAT THE CITY OF PICKERING PURCHASE THE PROPERTY
KNOWN AS 2050 DIXIE ROAD WITH THE INTENT OF
CREATING A BEAUTIFUL PARK
ADVANTAGES
. High profile, well situated to the location. Northwest corner of Dixie
Road (regional road) and Colonial Street (City), 4 way stop signs.
. Presently zoned Agricultural should reflect in the purchase price.
Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as infills disappears in Pickering.
. No need to dig up roads for hydro, water and cable connections. No
cutting of curbs for driveways.
. No potential requirement to relocate a fire hydrant, Canada Post
Superbox and newspaper pads
. Finally, the City of Pickering can exercise easement rights on Dixie
Road. Also, the City will not need to sell a strip of property on
Colonial Street. Already, the City cuts grass and ploughs snow on
Colonial Street.
. An opportunity for Hydro One to contribute to this park as it is on
the way to their transfer station. This financial gesture of goodwill
can help defray the Pine Creek oil spill and the tree planting failure
on Dixie Road boulevards. The trees were to deflect the eye from the
heavy configuration of hydro lines and poles flanking both sides of
Dixie Road. Good PRo
. Little or no crime in the park as residents are good observers as are
motorists who stop at the four-way stop signs. Colonial Street is a
direct school route with a crossing guard hired to help children to
cross Dixie Road. The rectangular property can be seen from all
sides.
. This park will encourage a greater sense of "community" as many
tax-paying neighbours have offered verbal support and are willing to
sign a document if requested.
. Councilors Holland, McLean and Ashe are favourable to this
proposal
Murray Mawson resides at 1019 Colonial Street and has lived in Pickering
since 1970. He is the owner of Whites Road Physiotherapy and Sports
Injury Clinic, 720 Sheppard Avenue since it's inception in 1988.

2. Letter of Mrs. Dale Weir
1027 Maury Cres.
March 2/04
3. Re-appraisal of city owned parkland strip
alongside our southern property border.
Dear Mr. Korouyenis;
I sympathise with Mrs. Weir's concerns and objection to Mr. Mawson's parkland proposal. We
too have had first hand experience of having lived adjacent to the city owned parkland for over
20 years. For many years there were noisy drinking teenagers using abusive language
and throwing beer bottles and garbage over our fence, fully aware of disturbing the peace in the
area. Attempts to reason with them were met with insults and further abusive language. Police
surveillance was scarce and when notified, usually too late to apprehend offenders,
When we moved to Pickering in 1978 we had planned this property to become our retirement
home since natural beauty and a peaceful quiet was all around us. The parkland strip was the
result of development around us in 1984. In spite of the expected negative impact on our privacy
we opted to stay and adapt to the change. We refrained from any complaints to the city when the
negative impact began to manifest itself.
Currently, as a result of my wife's passing a year ago I wish to join my daughter in British
Columbia. I feel that economic development of our property in compliance with zoning
parameters around us and, with buildings of equal Of better valueplanned, neighbouring real
estate values can be maintained or even increased.

ATTACHMENT fI .._TO
REf (¡AT # PO ._l1e~ :~?;;L '~O~'"'" ,
I therefore request of the Mayor and Council, as well as the economic development manager
Ron Taylor, and the planning department to consider the overall plan to be of mutual benefit to
both the city and to myself. And in order to render the sale of this property attractive to a quality
builder I respectfully request that the city refrain from requiring a substantial increase in the
appraisal value of the parkland strip adjacent to our property.
Thanking you for your consideration,

Re: Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 25/03

Harry Gerlach
Dear Mr. Korouyenis:
My husband and I own the property located directly behind Mr. Gerlach's property. It was our
intention to attend the public meeting held February 19th, however we were unable to attend due to his
mother's sudden passing.
Today I had the opportunity to review the minutes of said meeting and, afterwards, I spoke with Mr.
Ron Taylor, Economic Development Officer to discuss the raised issue of constructing a park On the
property. Mr. Taylor suggested that I send a letter stating our objections to this suggestion.
As the property owner, most affected by this change, we would like to go on record that we object to
the construction of a park on the property. We were aware, at the time we purchased our property, that
the time would come when additional homes could be built behind us, however never to our
knowledge was the property considered or zoned for parkland. Had it been, we definitely would not
have purchased our property, having backed onto parkland in the past. We know first hand the
negative impact a park can have backing onto a residential property. Garbage thrown over the fence,
kids climbing the fence ,causing damage to our property, as well as elevated noise levels and the
infringement on our privacy.
We do not want to appear unreasonable regarding this matter, and we wish Mr. Gerlach only the best,
however we feel that when the time comes to sell our home, it will be more attractive to a potential
buyer to have other homes, of the same caliber, behind our property.
We would like to thank you for taking the time to consider our opinions.
Yours very truly,
Dale & Gary Weir.

Subject:
Zoning By-law Amendment Application (A25/03)
-Harry Gerlach
-North-west corner of Dixie Road and Colonial Street
The Municipal Property & Engineering Division is in receipt of the above noted zoning
application to permit four residential lots within minimum lot frontages of 13.5 metres.
This Division provides the following comments.
1. The owner of northerly abutting lands, known as South Part of Lot 25,
Concession 2 (Assessment Roll # 010-018-02900) must provide the proper road
widening for Dixie Road.
2. The City property has been landscaped with many trees that are mature and of
value. These trees would have to be relocated to other City lands using a tree
spade. The cost to relocate should come from the proceeds of the sale of City
lands or be a requirement of zoning.
3. The Colonial Street frontage has many above ground utilities and street furniture
that would encumber lot frontage and driveway location. The developer should
be made aware that it is their responsibility to relocate them.
4. Creating 3 lots on Colonial Street would result in a lot depth of only 20 metres on
Dixie Road. Planning and Development should comment on the viability and
conformity of the lotting proposal. Will the existing lot on Dixie Road revert to a
driveway on Colonial Street. Driveway from both streets is not allowed.

2050 Dixie Road
South Part of Lot 25, Concession 2
I have read the minutes from the Statutory Public Information Meeting held February
19, 2004 regarding the above noted application. Three residents on Colonial Street
suggested that the City purchase the private lands and develop a park in conjunction
with the City owned lands.
Please be advised that the Municipal Property & Engineering Division has considered
this opportunity and has determined that another neighbourhood park in the vicinity
would not be beneficial and is cost prohibitive. Currently, there are three parks (Lynn
Heights, Forestbrook and Maple Ridge) that are in the neighbourhood, and this is
sufficient.
Dixie Road is a Class "C" Arterial Road and Colonial Street is a residential collector
road and a main road into and out of the subdivision to the west. Developing a park at
the corner would create more of a traffic impact and be more of a pedestrian safety
concern than the development of four residential lots.
At this time, it is not economically feasible for the City to purchase four potential lots
and a house to be demolished as well as incur costs to develop a park, or to purchase
three vacant lots and develop a park between existing residential homes.
This has been discussed with the Director, Operations & Emergency Services who
concurs that the purchase of the land and development of a park is not recommended.
