From: Sent: To: Subject: Ralph Sutton [ralphsutton@sympatico.ca] Tuesday. April 08, 2008 11 :26 AM Yearwood, Ashley 2330 Dixie Road ( Dog Kennels) Hi Ashley..... Thanks for the call back re the Dog Kennels... My questions would include but not limited to the following, re the proposed dog kennel facilities. Question. 1) Will there be a noise study requirement before the permit is issued? ( Barking dogs make considerable noise, especially a night, if startled by the close proxsimity of the trains passing by at night.) 2)What are the requirements for waste diposal. ( Dogs poop about 2-3 times daily). Depending on the number of animals on site this could amount to a significant pile. 3) Oder control.. ( If waste is not handled properly the oder can become overpowering. 4) Site Inspection ... How often will the facility be inspected, and who will be inspecting? 5) What services will be provided at this facilitiy? 6) Will the dogs be housed inside at night? fhese are just a few questions off the top, please keep me posted...

PN-12 Citlf ()~ REPORT TO PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Report Number: PO 18-08 Date: May 5, 2008 I · ':'i. From: Neil Carroll Director, Planning & Development Subject: Request from Toronto and Region Conservation Authority Respecting 541 Rodd Avenue File: 0-8000-015 Recommendation: 1. That the Toronto Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) be advised that the City of Pickering has no municipal interest in the building located at 541 Rodd Avenue, and, 2. That should TRCA permit the current tenant at 541 Rodd Avenue to dismantle and relocate the existing dwelling to 547 Rodd Avenue, the City requests that any agreement between the Authority and the tenant require that: a. such relocation comply with the City of Pickering Zoning By-law requirements, b. a building permit be obtained for the proposed construction, and 3. Further, that following removal of the building at 541 Rodd Avenue, a 1.2 metre high chain link fence be erected by the Authority, on TRCA lands, adjacent to the rear lot line of 537, 537 A, 545, and 547 Rodd Avenue, to delineate the boundary between TRCA ownership and private residential ownership. Executive Summary: The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) has requested the City to provide comments with respect to any potential interest it may have for use of the residential dwelling situated on 541 Rodd Avenue, upon expiry of the Authority's current lease with the existing tenant. The Authority intends to demolish the building unless the City expresses an interest, and is considering a request of the current tenant to dismantle the building and reassemble it at 547 Rodd Avenue (neighbouring property). Should relocation be supported, the Authority has requested that the City advise of any conditions and/or concerns it may have (see Location Map, Attachment #1 and TRCA letter, Attachment #3). Report PO 18-08 Date: May 5,2008 Subject: 541 Rodd Avenue Page 2 ) /- " When TRCA purchased these lands (0.35 acres) in April 1999, it was their intent to demolish the dwelling and restore the lands to a natural state upon termination of the ten year lease. Staff supports the objective of the TRCA to bring the shoreline area into public ownership and reduce stress on the fragile shoreline area. Considering this objective, the dwelling's location within the hazard limit of the Lake Ontario shoreline, the age of the dwelling, and the property's location and isolated setting, staff do not recommend municipal use of the building. Consequently it is recommended that TRCA be advised that the City has no municipal interest in the building located at 541 Rodd Avenue, and that TRCA proceed with removal of the dwelling through either demolition or relocation. Should the Authority permit the current tenant to relocate the building to 547 Rodd Avenue, it is requested that such relocation comply with all applicable City zoning by-law requirements, and that a building permit be obtained for the proposed construction. In addition, following removal of the dwelling at 541 Rodd Avenue, it is requested that a 1.2 metre high chain link fence be erected on TRCA lands, adjacent to the rear lot line of 537, 537A, 545, and 547 Rodd Avenue, to delineate the boundary between TRCA ownership and private residential ownership (see Attachment #2). Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the proposed demolition or relocation of the building situated on 541 Rodd Avenue. Sustainability Implications: Removal of the dwelling at 541 Rodd Avenue will contribute to a healthy and green environment by bringing the shoreline area into public ownership, reducing stress on the fragile shoreline area, and providing opportunity for site restoration. Background: TRCA acquired 541 Rodd Avenue in 1999 and leased the building back for 10 years In 1997 the property at 541 Rodd Avenue fell within TRCA's approved master plan for acquisition of properties along the Lake Ontario shoreline. The property is adjacent to other Authority holdings. At the time, the property represented one of the few remaining shoreline residential properties along the reach within the Rosebank Neighbourhood, along Lake Ontario. The property is located within the hazard area of the Lake Ontario shoreline, and is zoned 'R4' - Detached Dwelling Residential Zone by By-law 2511. Report PO 18-08 Date: May 5,2008 Subject: 541 Rodd Avenue Page 3 ..-) / (; ...~ The 0.35 acre property was part of a land exchange between TRCA and G. Dean, J. McCarten and J_ Pitino, involving parcels of surplus Authority lands on the north side of Rodd Avenue. The Authority leased back 541 Rodd Avenue to G. Dean, J. McCarten and J_ Pitino for a 10 year period (with a one year option). The acquisition of 541 Rodd Avenue helped consolidate the Authority's holdings into a more meaningful and useful form, and assisted in ensuring that the long term vision of a public open space system along this reach of shoreline was achieved. As the lease is approaching expiry, the Authority requests that the City advise of any potential use the City may have for this improved property The term of the lease for 541 Rodd Avenue expires on April 26, 2009 (not including a one year extension option) TRCA is in receipt of a request from the tenant, J. Pitino, to consider allowing him the opportunity to dismantle and relocate the existing dwelling at his expense, to 547 Rodd Avenue, prior to or at the expiry of the current lease term. While TRCA past reports are silent regarding what was to happen to the building at 541 Rodd Avenue at the end of the lease term, their overall objective was to acquire this property to bring the shoreline area into public ownership and reduce stress on the fragile shoreline area both which would be achieved through demolition. In the late 1990's TRCA had an aggressive acquisition strategy in the Rosebank Neighbourhood. Since that time TRCA conducted a rationalization process for their land holdings and acquisition plans which altered TRCA's program for this general area. Surplus lands were sold to the private sector, but acquisition of Lakefront properties continued to be a priority_ Other improved properties have been acquired by TRCA along the waterfront In the Rodd Avenue area over the past several years. The two storey residence on 541 Rodd Avenue is considered to be 'secure' and not in immediate danger of being impacted by unstable ground or bank erosion. However, if a long term use of the building was to be considered, TRCA would want to have their technical staff conduct a review of the property. The dwelling is located within the hazard limit of the Lake Ontario shoreline. Given the proximity of the structure to the shore, TRCA considers removal of the building at the end of the lease to be in the public's best Interest. However, before pursuing this action, or discussing relocation options with the eXisting tenant, TRCA has requested that the City advise as to any potential use It may have for this improved property upon expiry of the current lease. Should the City not express an interest in the building on the property, TRCA would appreciate receiving any conditions that the City would like to be applied to the tenant's proposal to relocate the building to 547 Rodd Avenue. Report PO 18-08 Date: May 5, 2008 Subject: 541 Rodd Avenue Page 4 ~) r,i City staff conclude that the building at 541 Rodd Avenue is not suitable for municipal purposes and should be demolished by TRCA or relocated by the current tenant City staff recently visited the property and building. Considering the age and condition of the building (constructed in 1967 with an addition in 1992, for a total floor area of approximately 300 square metres), the property's location and isolated setting, and the very limited parking accommodation, it was concluded that the building is not suitable for a municipal purpose. Further, staff support the objective of TRCA to bring the shoreline area into public ownership and reduce stress on the fragile shoreline area. Removal of the building will help achieve this overriding objective. Returning the property to its natural state will provide value to the community and the environment by increasing public accessibility and views to the waterfront, providing opportunity for restorative measures, and securing the slope edge from environmental risks. This action aligns well with the City's sustalnability objectives. Consequently It is recommended that TRCA be advised that the City has no municipal interest in the building located at 541 Rodd Avenue, and that TRCA proceed with removal of the dwelling through either demolition or relocation. Conditions should be imposed to any relocation of the building from 541 Rodd Avenue to 547 Rodd Avenue Staff have no objection to the disassembly and relocation of the dwelling to 547 Rodd Avenue (other land owned by the current tenant). Should TRCA agree to the relocation, it is required that such development be in full compliance with the provisions of the R4-10 -- Residential zone (By-law 5526/99) currently applicable to the site. The current zoning limits building height to 9.0 metres (see Attachment #4). A building permit must also be obtained for the proposed construction. Further, following removal of the dwelling at 541 Rodd Avenue, it is requested that a 12 metre high chain link fence be erected by the Authority, on TRCA lands, adjacent to the rear lot line of 537, 53?A, 545, and 547 Rodd Avenue, to delineate the boundary between TRCA ownership and private residential ownership (see Attachment #2).

The lease term expires on April 26, 2009, however, provided the tenant is not in default under the terms of the lease the tenant will have the right to renew the lease for a further term of one year (but with no further right to renew). In consideration of same, Mr. Pitino is also prepared to make an additional monetary donation towards the restoration of the existing Rodd Avenue site, on behalf of the late John McCarten. The above-captioned property was part of a land exchange between the TRCA, Mr. Joseph Pitino, Mr. John McCarten and Mr. George Deane, involving parcels of surplus Authority lands situate in the Rodd Avenue area in the City of Pickering. For your reference, we are enclosing a copy of the Minutes of Executive Meeting #9/97 regarding the above noted land exchange. This was adopted by the Authority at Meeting #10/97 on November 28, 1997 under Resolution #A258/97 without amendment. The transaction was completed on April 26, 1999, in accordance with the Authority Resolution. While the reports are silent regarding what would happen to the building at 541 Rodd Avenue at the end of the term, TRCA's overall objective was to acquire this property for public use and enjoyment. Given the location of the structure to the shoreline we think it would be in the best public interest to demolish the on-site improvements at 541 Rodd Avenue at the end of the term, unless the City has an interest. In this respect it would be appreciated if you would circulate this request to all applicable City departments and provide us with your comments with respect to any potential use the City of Pickering may have for this improved property upon the expiry of the current lease. If, however the City of Pickering has no future interest for this site, what, if any conditions and/or concerns would the City have with regards to the relocation and the reassembly of the existing structure to the neighbouring property.

J IB"-08' - r ,) ~) BACKGROUND Staff have had a number of meetings with area residents and officials of the Town of Pickering regarding amending the Authority's acquisition project boundary in the Rodd Avenue/Bella Vista Drive area. A plan was brought forward reflecting the community and Town of Pickering's input on the revised acquisition boundaries and process for disposal of the resulting surplus Authority lands. At Meeting #4/96 held on May 31, 1996, the Authority adopted Resolution #A99/96, declaring that various parcels of Authority-owned tablelands, including 5 lots improved with single family homes, and three vacant parcels, be surplus to the future requirements of the Authority and recommending that preference be given whenever possible, to sales or exchanges being made at market value to former owners, tenants, remaining private owners and abutting owners within the amended acquisition boundary" In accordance with the provisions of Resolution #A99/96, and as outlined in the staff report regarding the disposal process adopted by the Executive Committee at Meeting # 12/96, held on January 10, 1997, under Resolution #B205/96, staff in consultation with the Authority's solicitor and an independent appraiser has initiated the disposal process as follows: The priority of potential purchasers be: 1) Former owners (Phase I) 2) Tenants (Phase I) 3) Remaining Private Owners situate within the amended boundary which included abutting property owners (Phase II) 4) General public (Phase III) The former owners were either contacted directly if an address could be found or best efforts were made to contact them through the solicitor who acted on their behalf at the time of the purchase by the Authority. None of the former owners that we were able to contact has expressed interest in repurchasing their former property. The five tenants have been contacted and two of them have expressed an interest in acquiring the property. The Authority approved the sale of 531 Rodd Avenue at Meeting #4/97, held on May 30,1997 and the sale of 554 Rodd Avenue at Meeting # 5/97, held on June 27, 1997. Phase II of our disposal process required the Authority to offer the remaining surplus properties for purchase at current market value to the private property owners, situate within the amended acquisition boundary. The Authority advised the private owners within the amended boundary about the availability of our surplus lands, excluding the two properties of interest to our tenants, by letter on March 13, 1997. The Authority received notice of interest from two private owners. The Authority approved the sale to Siragusa the owners of 537 Rodd Avenue at Meeting #9/97 held on October 31, 1997. An agreement, to exchange lands has now been reached with the owners of 541 Rodd Avenue. The offer at hand is in accordance with the appraised value of an independent evaluation obtained by the Authority. Staff has had some preliminary discussions with officials at the Town of Pickering regarding the acquisition of the unopened road allowance adjacent to 535 and 541 Rodd Avenue. George M. Deane, John B. McCarten and Joe Pitino are also the registered owners of 535 7~ ", ~. b .3 I B (if; Rodd Avenue and through the agreement have waived their rights to the ravine portion of the road allowance. A map showing the location of the subject lands is appended. The subject Authority parcels consists of fragments of tableland acquired from; A. & G. Taylor in December 1981, Ernest Loader in October 1973 and Community Lifecare Inc. in January 1992, under the Waterfront Component of the Land Acquisition Project. RA TIONAlE The subject Authority land has been declared surplus by the Authority. The property at 541 Rodd Avenue falls within the Authority's approved master plan for acquisition along the Lake Ontario shoreline and is adjacent to Authority holdings. It represents one of the few remaining shoreline residential properties along this reach and is within the hazard area of the Lake Ontario shoreline. The acquisition of this property helps consolidate the Authority holdings into a more meaningful and useful form and should ensure that the long term vision of a public open space system along this reach of shoreline will be achieved. FINAN CIAl DETAILS It is proposed that the proceeds from land sales will be used in the funding of the purchase of this property. TAXES AND MAINTENANCE The taxes and maintenance for the property will be paid for by George M. Deane, John B. McCarten and Joseph Pitino during the term of the lease.

That Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 9/07, submitted by Canadian Property Holdings Inc. on Part of Lots 27, 28 and Lot 29, Plan M-1040, be approved, subject to the Recommended Conditions of Approval included with Report PD 20-08 as Appendix I, and; 2. Further, that the implementing zoning by-law, included with Report PD 20-08 as Appendix II, be forwarded to Council for enactment at such time as the Director, Planning & Development is satisfied that the environmental concerns outlined in the Region of Durham's letter of January 8, 2008 have been addressed. Executive Summary: The property is currently zoned for a warehouse use only. A zoning by-law amendment application has been submitted to permit a broader range of industrial uses and limited commercial uses including light manufacturing, food preparation plant, assembly plant, research laboratories, and retail sales as a minor component to an industrial or commercial operation on the property, located on the west side of Squires Beach Road, north of McKay Road within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood (see Attachment #1 - Location Map). As the existing building is partially vacant, the addition of a broader range of uses would provide the owner with greater leasing flexibility to attract employment uses consistent with other properties located within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood. These uses are generally compatible and appropriate for the subject lands and conform to the Pickering Official Plan. The continuance of a warehouse operation with the introduction of additional uses on the property is supported by staff. Based on the operational character and layout of the site and limited parking availability, unlimited retail sales are not recommended, however, limited sales outlets as ancillary components to permitted industrial uses are supported (see Attachment #2 - Applicant's Submitted Plan). Report PO 20-08 Date: May 5, 2008 Subject: Canadian Property Holdings Inc. (A 9/07) Page 2 ;:1 . It is recommended that this application be approved, subject to restrictions on the maximum floor area permitted for retail sales outlets, and that the draft by-law be forwarded to City Council for enactment at such time as the Director, Planning & Development is satisfied that the environmental concerns outlined in the Region of Durham's letter of January 8, 2008 have been addressed. An appropriate draft amending zoning by-law is attached to this Report as Appendix I. Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of introducing the proposed additional uses on the property. Sustainability Implications: The applicant's request embraces the principles of adaptive reuse and the concept of smart growth as it utilizes the existing warehouse building for new purposes while taking advantage of existing infrastructure within the City's Employment Area. The expansion of allowable uses on the property protects the viability of the City's employment lands and provides additional employment opportunities within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood. Background: 1.0 Comments Received 1.1 At the January 7, 2008 Public Information Meeting (see text of Information Report and Meeting Minutes, Attachments #3 & #4) - no comments were received; 1.2 Written Public Submissions on the application - no comments were received; 1.3 Agency Comments Regional Municipality of Durham permitted uses in Employment Areas include manufacturing, assembly warehousing, business parks, storage of goods, limited commercial and retail uses; the Region does not support commercial recreational uses on the property due to its location in proximity to the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant (see Attachment # 5); -'-""""."''''''"''''''''''~~_''''''"_'''''''''''-''''''_''''''''''''''''-''~'-;_'''.''''''''"'-___''''''',.h'""""'~""'""'-"~""'_"""""'''''"'_;';.~~''''',.;"",,,,,,o,,,,,,~,'.-.,~.~~,"",,,",,~_____",,_,~, Report PO 20-08 Date: May 5, 2008 Subject: Canadian Property Holdings Inc.

Permitted uses within this designation include manufacturing, assembly and processing of goods, warehousing and limited retailing of goods as a minor component to industrial operations. The subject property is designated Employment Area - General Employment in the Pickering Official Plan. This designation permits manufacturing, assembly, research and development, warehousing, storage of goods and materials and retail sales as a minor component to an industrial operation (i.e. sales outlets). Approval of the zoning by-law amendment to permit a broader range of employment uses on the property would conform with the land use policies of the City's Official Plan. Report PD 20-08 Date: May 5, 2008 Subject: Canadian Property Holdings Inc. (A 9/07) Page 4 11. i C ,j. ,-' 2.1.2 Commercial Recreational uses no lonqer beinq pursued The applicant originally requested that commercial recreational establishments be added as a permitted use for the property. Ministry of Environment (MaE) Guideline D-2 - Compatibility Between Sewage Treatment and Sensitive Land Uses provides recommended separation distances for all development or redevelopment applications for sensitive land uses adjacent to sewage treatment facilities. The Region of Durham Planning Department advises that the subject property is located close to the recommended separation distance from the Duffin Creek Water Pollution Control Plant for sensitive land uses. Based on this location and potential impact, the Region does not support the inclusion of commercial recreational uses in the amended zoning (see Attachment #5). The applicant has been made aware of the MaE Guideline and the Region's concern and has decided not to pursue commercial recreational uses for this property. 2.1.3 The proposed uses are appropriate and compatible within the Brock Industrial Neiqhbourhood The existing building on the site has a gross floor area of 26,643 square metres, The initial warehouse building was constructed on the property in 1981 and comprised 17,818 square metres. An 8,825 square metre addition to the rear of the building was constructed in 2005 and remains vacant. Walker Logistics, a warehousing operation, currently occupies approximately the front two-thirds of the building. The existing zoning for the property is dated and restrictive as it only permits warehousing operations. It is recommended that this property benefit from updated zoning provisions to include such uses as a food preparation plant, manufacturing operations, scientific, medical or research laboratories and retail sales outlets as minor components to permitted uses, as requested by the applicant. Staff further recommend that other employment uses be added as permitted uses for the property including a merchandise service shop, a printing establishment and a rental establishment. The above-noted uses requested by the applicant and recommended by staff would implement the land use policies for Employment Areas in the Pickering Official Plan. These additional uses would also provide the owner with greater leasing flexibility to attract employment uses consistent with other properties located within the Brock Industrial Neighbourhood. Report PO 20-08 Date: May 5,2008 Subject Canadian Property Holdings Inc. (A 9/07) ) i, Page 5 2.1.4 Owner to address Environmental Issues to the satisfaction of the Reqion of Durham and the City of Pickerinq A Phase 1 Environmental Assessment conducted for this property identified two environmental matters which should be addressed. The Region makes note of these matters in its letter of January 8, 2008 (see Attachment #6) and recommends that they be addressed through this application. An existing diesel fuel generator and battery charging exhaust station constitute air emission sources and require a Certificate of Approval from the MOE. Further, documentation is required that a spillage from leaking or overcharged forklift batteries onto a concrete floor has been properly cleaned. These matters are not considered to be of sufficient magnitude to prevent approval of the zoning amendment application. However, it is recommended that they be addressed prior to Council's consideration of the implementing zoning by-law. A reliance letter must be submitted to the Region of Durham respecting the Phase 1 ESA, and satisfactory measures taken to address the two environmental concerns, through direct action or potentially through the submission of a letter of undertaking. 2.1.5 Sales Outlets to be permitted on a limited basis and associated with specific uses The addition of a Sales Outlet use on this property is supported. A Sales Outlet is not a retail store as retail sales would operate only as an ancillary component of a permitted industrial use on the property. It is recommended that the area for a sales outlet component be limited to 25 percent of the gross floor area in association with the following industrial uses, up to a maximum of 150 square metres: assembly plant food preparation plant light manufacturing plant merchandise service shop rental establishment warehouse This approach is similar to other site specific zoning by-laws for industrial properties within the City's Employment Areas. 2.1.6 Site Functioninq and Desiqn Limits Amount of Non-industrial Uses Based on the current site functioning, layout and context, it is recommended that all non-industrial uses on the property occupy no greater than 50 percent of the aggregate floor area for the existing building. This restriction would also ensure that operations on the property are compatible with the existing industrial neighbourhood. Report PD 20-08 Date: May 5,2008 Subject: Canadian Property Holdings Inc. (A 9/07) Page 6 i_) -I ~ I 2.1.7 Increased Parkinq Requirements for All New Uses on the Property It is recommended that a site specific parking ratio of 3.0 spaces per 100 square metres of floor area be provided for all new uses on the property. It is further recommended that a minimum of 50 parking spaces continue to be required for a warehouse operation. 2.2 Additional uses will require Site Plan approval The introduction of new uses on the property will require Site Plan approval to address the following site constraints: the north wall of the existing building consists of 40 loading doors and some site modifications may be required to accommodate non-industrial uses on the property; should some of the loading docks be removed, there is sufficient room to accommodate additional parking that may be required for non-industrial uses; there is only one access/egress for the site; there is no separation of automobile, truck and pedestrian traffic; Through the Site Plan approval process, the applicant will also be required to demonstrate, among other matters, that safe access and appropriate lighting design is provided. 2.3 Text Amendments to Zoning By-law 2511 should be enacted It is recommended that any additional uses and associated zone requirements approved for the lands be regulated by way of text amendments to the existing "W_1" Warehouse Zone, to add the following uses: dry cleaning establishment food preparation plant light manufacturing plant manufacturing plant merchandise service shop printing establishment rental establishment sales outlet scientific, medical or research laboratory The recommended conditions of approval for the implementing zoning by-law are described in Appendix I to this report. 3.0 Applicant's Comments The applicant is aware of the recommendations of this report.

The Works Department has indicated that the Ministry of the Environment (MaE) Guideline 0-2 - Compatibilitv Between Sewaqe Treatment and Sensitive Land Uses provides recommended separation distances for all development or redevelopment applications for residential or other sensitive land uses adjacent to sewage treatment facilities. The proposed commercial recreational uses at 1050 Squires Beach Road are within the recommended separation distance requirements of MaE Guideline 0-2. The guideline also advises that a separation distance of greater than 150 metres may be required on an individual basis. The proposed commercial recreational uses at 1100 Squires Beach Road are outside of the recommended separation distance but are within the vicinity of the Duffin Creek WPCP approaching the recommended separation distance. As the proposed commercial recreational uses are within or approaching the recommended separation distance of MaE Guideline 0-2, the Region does not support the proposed commercial recreational uses at 1050 and 1100 Squires Beach Road. The proposed industrial and office uses may be permitted. 6P de -Of' Please contact me should you have any questions or require any additional information regarding this matter.

We have now had an opportunity to review the notice and wish to provide you with the following comments. We understand that the purpose of the application is to amend the zoning by-law in force for the subject lands. It is further understood that the present 'W-1' Wareho,use zoning is to be changed to add industrial and limited commercial uses for the subject lands. Based upon our review of the subject lands and the surrounding area, we advise that there are no significant environmental features of concern to the TRCA on the subject lands. In addition, the subject lands are not within a Regulated Area pursuant to Ontario Regulation 166/06 (TRCA Regulation of Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses). A permit would therefore not be required prior to any development taking place on the subject lands. Given the comments above, we have no objection to the approval of the application. We trust that this is of assistance. Please contact the undersigned jf you have any questions regarding ~his letter, Yours truly, ~~ Chris Jones, B.U.R.P1.
