Council Referral
A15/03 - Sunoco
(Block B, Plan M-1024)
Southwest corner of Brock Road & Pickering Parkway
1800 Brock Road North
City of Pickering
At the March 8, 2004 Council meeting, Resolution #36/04(a) referred Council's
consideration of Zoning By-law Amendment Application A15/03 (Sunoco) to
April 5, 2004. Staff were directed to coordinate discussions between the
applicant and the Region of Durham to explore possible funding by the applicant
toward the cost of introducing an additional southbound traffic lane on Brock Road
running south from Pickering Parkway to the 401 'on-ramp'.
The Region of Durham advise that the Environmental Study Report for
Brock Road is currently in its commenting period, and closes on April 5, 2004. A
third southbound lane on Brock Road is included in this study, however
construction is currently not within the Region's five year forecast. The proposed
future works are a Regional Development Charge project. The Region has
confirmed that no works can be done until the completion of the Environmental
Study Report. Further, should partial project construction be considered, a
minimum improvement section would consist of the full length of Brock Road
from Pickering Parkway to Highway 401.
The Region clarified that the development of an additional southbound lane
would cost approximately $75,000 for only that section of road directly fronting
the Sunoco property. This estimate does not include design works, relocation of
utilities, or road improvement south of Sunoco to Highway 401.
OO8
Council Referral A15/03 - Sunoco
March 29, 2004
Page 2
The proposed third southbound lane must be extended in its entirety from
Pickering Parkway to Highway 401 as one project and cannot be limited to the
Sunoco property frontage.
The Region has advised that a very rough estimate of the cost to extend the
southbound lane from the Sunoco site to the Highway 401 ramp is approximately
$400,000 for road works only.
City staff have also discussed this matter with the applicant. A representative of
Sunoco acknowledges the concerns of Council, but feels strongly that the
proposed additional retail space on the site will not exacerbate current traffic
issues on Brock Road, as supported by their traffic report. Further, Sunoco
noted that their business operation is not the only commercial facility that
contributes to Brock Road traffic.
It is Sunoco's position that the Region of Durham and City of Pickering are
responsible for required road improvements as identified through the Regional
Environmental Study Report. Consequently, Sunoco is not prepared to
financially contribute toward Regional / City projects.
City staff continue to support the recommendation contained in Report PD 12-04.

to City Council for enactment.
Executive Summary: The applicant is requesting a change to the existing
CA/A-Commercial Automotive zoning on the subject lands to permit the establishment of
a convenience retail use, associated with the existing gas bar facility, as an additional use
on the site. The subject property is located on the southwest corner of Pickering Parkway
and Brock Road (see Location Map, Attachment #1).
The proposed convenience retail use associated with the gas bar will be compatible
with the existing development of the subject property and consistent with the
development of service stations with associated retail throughout the City of Picketing.

Written submissions following the Information Meeting
Residents in the neighbourhood west of the subject property and business
owners' directly abutting the property expressed objection to the application.
Along with individual submissions, a petition was submitted with approximately
300 signatures opposing the application (see Attachment #5).
All submissions received cited variations of the following reasons for opposing
the proposal:
Large volumes of traffic already associated with Sunoco Service Station and
Tim Horton's;
Safety issues associated with increased traffic volumes;
On-site pedestrian danger associated with cars queuing at the Tim Horton's;
Already severe traffic issues caused by the redevelopment of the Metro East
Trade Centre.

2.0 Discussion
No objection;
No objection.
The proposal complies with the City's Official Plan designation
The City's Official Plan designates the subject property "High Density Area",
within the Village East Neighbourhood. This designation permits, amongst other
uses, retailing of goods and services.
The proposed by-law amendment to add retail use (which would permit a
convenience store) implements the City's Official Plan policies and contributes to
the retail / commercial nature of the designation.
Modernizing and Updating the service station to current standards
Current zoning on the property limits the permitted use to an Automobile Service
Station - Type 'A' and Restaurant Drive-Thru Take Out. This zoning was
established in 1984 and does not fully implement the current Official Plan
designation or provide appropriate flexibility of uses.
Within the City of Pickering and throughout Ontario, service stations have
evolved to now include an associated convenience store as a standard
component of a gasoline retail outlet.
Proposed development will not further disrupt existing traffic movements
on or off the site
A traffic report, prepared by the applicant's consultant, supports the proposal and
concludes that the addition of an associated convenience store use will not
further impact the already congested site. The report was reviewed by Municipal
Property & Engineerin9 staff who concur' with the findings of' the report. A retail
use will not generate sufficient additional traffic to merit the refusal of the
application based on safety and traffic requirements. A retail use, though minor',
at approximately 50 square metres, is currently operating from the gas station

proposed expanded faci!i(y, bu( should no( worsen.
The Site Plan Review process will address appropriate site functioning
A Site Plan Application has recently been received by the City and has been
reviewed at a Development Application Review Team (DART) meeting. Through
the DART meeting it has been determined that the proposed site reconfiguration
will assist in improving internal traffic problems by clearly defining drive-thru
lanes, relocating the garbage enclosure, and generally formalizing traffic flow
routes (see Attachment #2).
The existing By-law requires that the site provide a minimum of 5 parking spaces.
The applicant does not propose to provide additional parking spaces for the
increased retail floor area. The consultant report indicates that additional parking
is not required due to minimal increase of customers attending the site solely for
shopping needs. Staff concurs with this position.
On-site movement of vehicles may be improved through a reVised site plan which
the proposed 120 square metre development. However, any floor area increases
over 120 square metres may result in traffic flow issues. As such, the By-law
should restrict the area Of any retail / convenience use to 120 square metres.
It is recommended that the application be approved and the amending by-law be
forwarded to Council for enactment.

SUNOCO INC.
1800 BROCK ROAD NORTH
BLOCK B, PLAN M-1024
Mike Duff, Planner II, provided an explanation of the application, as outlined in
Information Report #19-03.
Steve Lerner, Suncor Energy Products Inc., advised that the items to be added
would be those similar to what is sold in most service stations. He further
advised that new pumps are being installed that will provide the convenience of
paying at the pump rather than having to enter the store, this speed up the
process and alleviate some of the traffic problems.
Paul Hill, Traffic Consultant, advised that a traffic study ahs been completed
which concludes that 85% of the traffic is due to Tim Horton's. Reorganization of
the site should help the traffic flow and lessen the traffic on Pickering Parkway.
Preet Singh, 25 Rotherglen Road North, advised that this development will create
more traffic congestion on Brock Road which will inevitably cause more accidents
and back-up. Another convenience store is not required in the area and with the
build-up of businesses across the street all needs are addressed.
CarolYn Oliver, 1655 Pickering Pkwy., Unit 514, advised that there is a solid
stream of traffic on Brock Road now and another convenience 'store is not
needed which will just increase the problem.
Raymond Ada, 1655 Pickering Parkway, advised of his opposition to the
convenience store stating that the service station will loose business if the traffic
congestion gets any worse.
Percell Thompson, 1566 Alwin Circle, stated his opposition to the application
adding that the traffic is already overly congested.
Lynda Taylor, Manager, Development Review, advised that comments are still to
024
Your proposed store
is not a
"convenience"!!
We, the undersigned, oppose the construction of a convenience store by
Sunoco on their property at Brock Road and Pickering Parkway because:
· there are already tremendous traffic congestion problems at the site
involving both Sunoco and Tim Horton's customers;
· this congestion akeady sometimes endangers other motorists and
pedestrians using Pickering Parkway and other adjacent streets;
· customers will face potential danger while entering and departing the
convenience store by being forced to navigate between automobiles
awaiting service at Tim Horton's drive-through service;
, construction of the larger retail complex at the site of the former
Metro East Trade Cen'~re already exaggerates traffic problems Ln the
community, and this store wilt simply contribute to difficult/es
w/thom delN-ermg a:~.y substantial be~.efit to customers or the
neighbom-hood;

Road and Picketing Pa~flcway will contribute to £urther major traffic
,,~ongesuun and endanger pedestrians and drivers alike as a result.
Safety will continue to be further compromised, with the potential for
personal injuries and property damage escalating greatly. It is not'a question
of if accidents will happen but, as with the redesigned nearby intersection
dealing with much greater traffic volumes and changes, only a question of
how man.y accidents and how bad.
Residents in the immediate area emotionally oppose the expansion of the
retail cluster because there is no apparent advantage and numerous
dangerous and frustrating results that will evolve from the development.
Local politicians also oppose the development and police voice personal
concerns about growing traffic hazards in the immediate area.
It is time that politicians and business leaders in the community recognize
the cause-and-effect results that follow decisions' permiting development that
everyone wants ... but which must meet the needs and desires of the larger
community.
The residential streets streaming off Pickering Parkway already suffer from
higher traffic flow and dangerous driver complacency that is a result of the
growing truck and automobile flow that accompanies growth.
The Tim Horton's retail outlet already on the site daily creates stand-still
overflow ~affic ar alt hours of the day that unpredictably (1) stops U~affSc
a ~o~,,,tn,,~ on ?~cl~ermg Parkway. ~I?,, bloctcs traffic flow as a result; (3) often.
backs up traffic turning fi'om Brock: Road and (4) has repeatedly caused
accidents and near-accidents that som. etirnes has invo!ved pedes~ians.

I could not attend the hearing last Thursday £~out the rezoning application
submitted by Sunoco for construction of a convenience store at Pickering
Parkway and Brock Road.
Any suggestion, as stated by a consultant on behalf of the company, that
there are no traffic problems associated with the property due to the Tim
Hortons outlet other than peak periods is absOlutely wrong.
The congestion, and resulting accidents and potential to personal injury, can
and do occur at all hours of the day due to the existing traffic volumes.
Th/s neighbourhood is also enduring traffic problems brought about by the
development of the First Pro shopping centre on the northeast comer of
Brock Road and Pickering Parkway. These problems will be expanded by
the Sunoco construction.
There is also no visible need for the Convenience store, other than great
profit for the company.
The neighbourhood must come first.
