Executive Committee Meeting Minutes Monday Septem ber 11, 2006 7:40 pm Council Chambers Chair: Councillor Johnson Gardner Church, a representative for the applicant, appeared before the Committee in support of the application. Mr. Church stated that the development would infuse the local economy with almost a fifth of a billion dollars in the coming two or three years. He noted that it would provide high quality construction jobs and high quality homes. He stated that the Bay Ridges Plaza is no longer viable and stated that this proposal would revive the retail services in the area. Mr. Church noted that he had further comments with regards to the Planning report but request to address the Committee after the delegations. John Collins, 849 Darwin Drive, Pickering, appeared before the Committee in support of the application and stated that the development would Improve the existing plaza and attract people to the area. Tim Dobson, Chairman, Pickering East Shore Community Association (PESCA), Bay Ridges Plaza (BRP) Redevelopment Committee and Susan Carlevaris, President, PESCA, appeared before the Committee in opposition to the subject application. They advised that PESCA was opposed to the application based on the following key points; building heights; traffic and parking congestion in the area; the environmental impacts on the Douglas Ravine and Frenchman's Bay; inadequate retail space allocation and the affect the increase of traffic in the area would have on emergency evacuation routes. They further stated that a food store was needed in the area but did not feel there would be enough commercial space to attract a food store. Concern was expressed with respect to the existing retail merchants and what would happen to them. PESCA was of the opinion that there was too much of a residential component to the application and that employment lands were being lost. They noted that PESCA recommended a 7 storey building and not a 16 and 18 storey building. They felt there was inadequate parking for the site and felt on street parking would become worse. They stated that they wanted a development that would complement the community and felt this development did not. In summary, they noted that PESCA, BRP Redevelopment Committee disagreed with recommendation #'s 1 to 3 of the report and further noted that recommendation #4 should be set aside pending a proposal which is better suited to address the concerns of the residents. John Blue, 4730 Thornton Road, appeared before the Committee in opposition to the subject application. Mr. Blue stated that he owned the car wash and the laundromat in the plaza located at 1235 Bayly Street and represented some of the tenants. He advised that the merchants had not been asked for their input into the project. Mr. Blue further noted that he felt there was a lot less retail space for the development and that retail services were important for the area. He noted that he Executive Committee Meeting Minutes Monday September 11, 2006 7:40 pm Council Chambers Chair: Councillor Johnson agreed that the plaza had to be improved but felt that the concerns of the existing tenants in the plaza had not been addressed. Doris Hopper, 204-1210 Radom Street, appeared before the Committee in opposition to the subject application. She noted that this area was the gateway to the City's waterfront and the City should be more creative in what they build in this location. She noted that the land needed a public component to the development and suggested that a museum for migratory birds would attract people to the area. She felt that the City should look at a private/public partnership for the area and noted that residential and retail could be worked into the concept. She further stated that the residential component was too high. Frances Hanna, 599 Liverpool Road, appeared before the Committee in support of the application and advised that the development would bring more people to the area. He also noted that an 18 storey building already existed in the area so this would not be something new. Mr. Hanna felt that most people would be commuters so traffic would not be an issue. Bob Varga, 1210 Radom Street, Board of Director for DCC #19, appeared before the Committee and expressed concerned with making sure there was enough water, electricity and sewer capacity for the development. He stated that the commercial component was very important for the development and noted that retail services would come into the area if the market could sustain them. Wendy Johnson, 1210 Radom St., appeared before the Committee and stated that her concerns were with the retail services. She stated that retail services were needed in the area for the senior residents and that they needed to economically suit the clientele of the area. She further stated that the current business owners had not been kept very well informed on what was happening. Ms. Johnson stated that she was surprised to learn that DCC #19 sent a letter supporting the development and in summary advised that she understood that redevelopment was necessary, but not at this level. Paul Crawford, 1867 Antonio Street, appeared before the Committee and expressed concern with the short review period of the report, prior to being presented to Committee. He noted that he would like to see the developer, Council and residents sit down and go over the report point by point. He requested that consideration be made to reduce the amount of residential on the development in the event that the report was to be approved and further, the report should be sent back for further discussion due to the density and height of the proposed development. In summary he stated that he would like to see the plaza redeveloped but would like to see more jobs created. Mr. Crawford submitted a Executive Committee Meeting Minutes Monday September 11, 2006 7 :40 pm Council Chambers Chair: Councillor Johnson petition from residents of Bayshore Towers (DCC #19) in disagreement with the letter of July 31, 2006 from the Board of Directors, which supported the subject application and further noting the petition was in opposition to the subject redevelopment application. Ed Fulton, 1210 Radom Street, appeared before the Committee and stated that residents needed more time to review a report of this size. He advised that the community had been poorly served through this application and that much of the application had relied on the availability of transit. He further advised that in his opinion transit was bad in the area and that it usually took two buses to get anywhere. Mr. Fulton stated that he did not support DeC #19 letter of support and noted that the Board did not notify residents of this letter. He also stated that this development would increase the traffic and parking in the area and felt that the developer was misleading by focusing on transit use. Mr. Fulton noted that he would like to see a larger commercial component and less residential development in the subject application. Charmaine Shaw, 1294 Radom Street, appeared before the Committee in opposition to the development. She noted that she did not agree with the high rise and felt this was not keeping with the existing community. She noted that she was concerned with the increase of traffic and questioned how shadowing tests were completed. She stated that there was only a few ways of exiting this area and felt the development would really affect traffic flow. In summary, she advised that she understood that redevelopment was needed but not a high rise development. Pasquale Malandrino, 633 Dunn Crescent, appeared before the Committee in opposition to the application. Mr. Malandrino stated that he was a tenant in the plaza and felt that Council had not supported the tenants and residents in the area with this development. He further stated that he did agree the plaza needed to be redeveloped but would have like his concerns addressed and more support from the City. Barb Vannen, 1210 Radom Street, appeared before the Committee and stated that this was one of the oldest communities in Pickering and felt that more consideration should be given to the redevelopment of the area. She noted that she would like to see a full park, not just a parkette in the middle of the development with housing facing all four sides. She stated that soft services like daycares, schools, senior services and Doctor's offices were required in order to make it a place that the community would want it to be. Stephanie Newitt, 1001 Albacore Manor, appeared before Committee and expressed concern with the subject application. Executive Committee Meeting Minutes Monday September 11, 2006 7:40 pm Council Chambers Chair: Councillor Johnson Linda Rehel, 1009 Albacore Manor, appeared before the Committee and noted that she agreed the old plaza needed to be redeveloped and that the proposed development would improve the area. Mark Willis, 1866 Fairport Road, appeared before the Committee and stated that he was in support of the application and noted that he had been dealt with fairly by the developer. He stated that change was always hard to accept but felt the development would bring a new economy to Pickering and hopefully bring new families to the area. Byron Palmer, 1294 Radom Street, appeared before the Committee and noted that he was not against the subject development but expressed concern with the increase in traffic the development would create. Eileen Higden, 852 Fairview Drive appeared before the Committee and questioned if any agreements with developers had been made based on the proposed recommendations.

Executive Committee Meeting Minutes Monday Septem ber 11, 2006 7 :40 pm Council Chambers Chair: Councillor Johnson Carmen Montgomery, 239 Lupin Drive, questioned what part of the proposed development could the Ontario Municipal Board over ride (ie: Go Transit and/or CN comments). She further stated that meaningful negotiations with all parties could allow for a good resolution for everyone. She further stated that she did not want to lose the environmental issues noted within the report. Abdul Prenji, owner of the pharmacy within the plaza requestedthatthe statutory meeting minutes of June 1, 2006 be amended to more closely reflect his comments. He expressed his appreciation to the residents for the support of his pharmacy over the years. Gardner Church, a representative for the applicant expressed appreciation for a very thorough staff report. He stated that the vast majority of the staff comments were consistent with the plan, however, four key issues remained, being; dead end streets - the request to create three dead end road with only one vehicle exit from each has not been thought through; commercial space phasing - the requirement that the new commercial facilities be built in the first stage is economically impossible; parking - City staff is recommending 4.5 parking spaces per 100 sq. metres of commercial area, which is 80% of the parking required where land conservation, sustainability and transit orientation were not issues; and, holding by- law - staff proposal to place a holding by-law on the entire property after approval of the rezoning while the site plan is developed is considered redundant. He outlined in detail the four key issues and the specific concerns of the applicant. A question and answer period ensued. RECOMMENDATION Moved by Councillor Pickles Seconded by Councillor Ashe 1.
