CANADA
905-668-7711 The Regional Municipality of Durham (The Region) has reviewed the above"
Fax: 905-666-6208 noted application and offers the following comments for your consideration.
Email: plan ning@durham. ca
www.durham.ca The purpose of this application is to amend the zoning by-law on the subject
lands to permit the expansion of an existing shopping centre with additional
A.L. Georgieff, MCIP, RPP commercial uses. The expansion includes the reconfiguration of one existing
Commissioner of Planning building and the addition of several new buildings, both in the existing developed
portion of the lands and in the vacant portion.
Regional Official Plan
The subject lands are currently designated `Living Area' in the Durham Region
Official Plan (ROP). The ROP states that Living Areas shall be used
predominantly for housing purposes. The ROP also states that limited retailing
of goods and services, in appropriate locations, may be permitted in Living
Areas, and states that Living Areas shall be developed in a compact form
through higher densities and by intensifying and redeveloping existing areas,
particularly along arterial roads.
Portions of the subject lands are identified as containing a "Key Natural Heritage
and/or Hydrologic Feature", as per Schedule B - Map B1d in the ROP. The
ROP states that any proposal for development or site alteration shall
demonstrate that there will be no negative effects on key natural heritage or
hydrologic features or their functions.
A Scoped Environmental Impact Study, prepared by Beacon Environmental and
dated April 2008, was submitted with this application. The report concludes that
the proposed development would result in the loss of small areas of woodland,
marsh wetland and cultural meadow on the subject property. The report also
states that mitigation measures have been identified that support the City of
Pickering Design with Nature policies. It is suggested that the City of Pickering
obtain comments from the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority regarding
the study.

The subject property abuts Pickering Parkway and Notion Road, which are both
designated as Type 'C' Arterial Roads, and Brock Road, which is designated as
a Type 'A' Arterial Road; in the ROP. Brock Road is also designated as a Transit
Spine in the Durham ROP. Development adjacent to Transit Spines shall
provide for complementary higher density uses and buildings oriented towards
the street.
The proposed amendment is consistent with the Region's policies stated above.
Provincial Policies & Delegated Review Responsibilities
This application has been screened in accordance with the terms of the
provincial plan review responsibilities.
i
Potential Site Contamination
A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA), dated January 24, 2006 and
prepared by Jacques Whitford Inc,, was submitted with this application, despite
the fact that the Screening Questionnaire for Identifying Potentially Contaminated
Sites did not identify any potential contaminants. The report concluded that
there was no evidence of potential environmental contamination associated with
the subject site. The scope of the above ESA, however, included only the
developed portion of the subject lands with the civic address of 1755 & 1805
Pickering Parkway. It did not include the undeveloped portion of the subject site
with the civic address of 1856 -1842 Notion Road.
Further, the Archaeological Assessment detailed below identified that the
undeveloped portion of the subject property contained industrial fill, including one
industrial building foundation and some shed debris, as well as soil full of old
tires.
Due to the age of the above ESA, and the contradictory information provided by
the Site Screening Questionnaire and the Archaeological Assessment report, the
Region requires that a new Phase I ESA be completed for the entire subject
lands covering the municipal addresses of 1755 & 1805 Pickering Parkway, and
1856 - 1842 Notion Road. Also, in accordance with Regional procedures, a
Reliance Agreement Letter and Certificate of Insurance are to be submitted with
all Phase 1 ESAs and prior to the Region relying on the information.
Archaeological Potential
A Stage 1 and 2 Archaeological Assessment report, dated July 2007 and
prepared by Archaeologix Inc., was submitted with this application. The scope of
this report included the undeveloped portion of the subject lands, but not the
developed portion. This report found no archaeological resources, and has been
filed with the Ontario Ministry of Culture for their review and acceptance.
Regional Services
Municipal water supply and sanitary sewer service are available to the subject
property. The Regional Works Department has no objection to the above
application.

Durham Region Transit & Transportation
Durham Region Transit (DRT) operates two bus routes, the 108 and 122
services, on Pickering Parkway in the vicinity of the subject property. A bus stop
is currently located on the south side of Pickering Parkway, where the proposed
major access to the site will be located.
As a result, DRT will relocate the bus stop approximately 20 metres to the west
of the current location. The new bus stop should include a hard surface adjacent
to the roadway, a transit shelter and a hard surface connection to the sidewalk
along the south side of Pickering Parkway.
When the current bus stop needs to be relocated, it is suggested that an on-site
meeting be held between appropriate Pickering and DIRT staff to finalize the new
bus stop location.
Please contact David Perkins at 905-668-4113 ext. 2571 should you have any
questions or require additional information.

Dear Ms. Wylie:
The ministry has completed its review of the above Zoning By-law Amendment Application and offers the
following comments.
The applicant should be made aware that Ministry building/land-use permits are required prior to any
grading or construction taking place on these lands that are within the Ministry' Permit Control. This
Ministry will require a minimum 14m setback from the Highway 401 right-of-way to any new
buildings/structures above and below ground. Further, any feature deemed essential to the operation and
viability of the site (including parking spaces required by municipal by-law, fire routes, driveway aisles,
loading docks and access to loading docks, garbage access, underground structures, municipally
assumed/private roads and/or servicing, stormwater management pond access roadway, etc.) must be
setback a minimum of 14 metres from the Highway 401 right-of-way.
The driveway aisle shown immediately adjacent to the Highway 401 Right-of-Way in this proposal within
the 14m setback, should be relocated outside the 14m setback if it is essential to the operation and
viability of this development. Stormwater Mangement Facilities,, such as the stormwater pond access,
should also be located outside the 14m setback. Any parking shown within the 14m setback must be
surplus to the site requirements and so noted on the Site Plan.
In general, the applicant should be made aware that no direct access shall be permitted to Highway 401.
All access shall be via the existing internal municipal streets.
As part of the permit application process, prior to the issuance of any permits, the applicant will be
required to submit a Traffic Impact Study indicating the existing and future projected traffic volumes and
pattems as it impacts the Highway 401 and Brock Road Interchange, for this Ministry's review and
approval. The applicant will also be required to submit full scale (1:500) site plans, site servicing and
grading plans and detailed storm-water management plans and reports indicating the changes in drainage
run-off caused by the developments, and the intended treatment of this calculated runoff as it impacts on
the Highway 401 Right-of-way, for this Ministry's review and approval. Illumination Plans and details will
also need to be reviewed and approved by this ministry. All Plans should dearly show the Highway 401
ATWHN, WWO-4-S-0
lNFC' ATE ' P '
Right-of-Way and the 14m setback. The Ministry will provide more detailed comments when a formal site
plan is submitted.
Further information on our Building and Land Use Permit requirements is available from our office by
contacting Mr. Ken Sherbanowski, Permits Officer (416-235-5560) at the above-captioned address.
Sign permits may be required as well.

Attention: Deborah Wylie
RE: The Shops at Pickering Ridge (Proposed Expansion)
Town staff have reviewed the application and supporting documentation for The Shops at
Pickering Ridge expansion proposal.
Our Engineering Department had the following comments:
1) The consulting engineer for the owner must ensure they are using the most current
regional flood model for this area of Duffins Creek. The consultant must contact TRCA
to verify.
2) The displacement of the regional flood plain as described in section 3.1 of the
stormwater management report must reviewed and approved by the TRCA.
3) In section 2.2 and 4.2.3 of the SWM report the existing storm sewer was designed for
the minor event only (based on Appendix B). The major event would be overland.
4) Section 4.2.3 of the SWM report should reference section 2.1, 3.1 and 4.1.1 for
floodplain management. Quantity control is required for displacement of the regional
storm volume.
5) Table 1.1 should be revised to include the regional event.
6) Please forward TRCA comments.
Please note that a portion of this development maybe within the Regional Flood Plain. Please
verify with TRCA for regional flood limits. Landforms have been established in the Town of Ajax
and the City of Pickering in this area to help with the management of regional storm events.
1 W#4,
16 INFORMA-P
Any negative disturbance in this sensitive flood management balance could create future private
and public property damage due to flooding during a regional event.
Overall, Town of Ajax Planning Staff have no significant objection to the proposed expansion of
the shopping centre. However, this expansion will inevitably result in increase traffic along
Notion .Road and therefore the Town would like to see the condition of Notion Rd. improvement
from the intersection of'.Notion Rd. and Pickering Parkway south to the dead end. We have
attached pictures of the current road condition for your information.
Town of Ajax staff would like to thank you for the opportunity to review The Shops at Pickering

City of Pickering
Please be advised that the Transportation Engineering Staff has reviewed the Traffic Impact Study
prepared by Lea Consulting Limited, dated July 2010. Our comments related to Transportation
Engineering include the following:-
• The Traffic Impact Study indicates that two full access driveways will be provided on
Pickering Parkway; however there is no mention of dimensions for spacing of the
access/driveway on the site plan. It needs to be labelled.
• The Traffic Impact Study Report does not address transportation effects due to proposed
Notion Road Overpass on both Notion Road and Pickering Parkway and its implications (if
any) associated to the proposed development on the subject roads. This needs to be
addressed in detail.
• The Traffic Impact Study indicates that all outbound movements from the proposed
development will be under stop control. It is suggested to plot the same information either
on the site plan or on separate future/proposed lane configuration sheet.
• The study report does not include information about Pedestrian Traffic Movement at all
intersections. It is suggested to provide pedestrian traffic volume counts in the detailed
analysis reports of each intersection.
• The proposed site is a future commercial development (as per the Traffic Impact Study)
therefore the proposed daily truck trips, their types, along with their planned accesses to
the proposed site needs to be clearly addressed/summarized.
• The following information is missing on the Site Plan which needs to be addressed
accordingly:-
(i) Existing and future lane configuration on Brock Road, Pickering Parkway, Notion
Road and other minor intersections
(ii) Provide internal traffic circulation plan for the proposed development including
directional arrows and signs (if any) indicating traffic
(iii) Provide truck turning paths along with turning radii, truck lengths and widths 23
• Minor Issues:
(i) Section 2.1(Page 3): Please correct the name of the road to Brock Road instead of
Brock Street
(ii) Section 2.3 & 6.1 (Page: 4 & 15): Please correct the survey days/dates according to
its actual days/dates.
Trusting that the above is satisfactory, should you have any questions please do not hesitate to
contact me.

I have reviewed the submissions for the above-noted zoning by-law application and offer the
following comments:
1. Given the development will be displacing approximately 12,000 m3 of flood storage during
the Regional Storm, TRCA must approve the recommended approach to provide the
equivalent flood storage prior to site plan stage as this could affect the design of the
development. TRCA should also confirm if the SWM criteria is still valid for the site.
2. Please resubmit an updated storm water management report at the site plan stage that
addresses the following items:
• The site servicing design should include roof runoff to infiltration trenches and/or
pervious pipes with overflows to the storm sewer (per TRCA LID Manual).
• As well, please ensure that the inlet of the stormwater pond is located as far from the
outlet as possible in order to avoid short-circuiting, please include forebay berming to
distinguish between the forebay and the main cell of the pond. The current design does
not satisfactorily meet the MOE criteria.
• Please provide hydrogeological information and the geotechnical requirements for any
proposed pond liner in the SWM pond design and ensure that they are included in the
SWM report.

Re: Zoning Amendment Application: A 6/14
Part Lot 24 & 26, Concession 6
Highway 7 & 7/12, Township of Whitby, Region of Durham
Dear Ms. Shields:
The ministry has completed its review of the above zoning amendment application and offers the following
comments.
The applicant should be made aware that Ministry building/land-use permits will be required prior to any
grading or construction on this site.
This Ministry will require a minimum 14m setback from the Highway 7 right-of-way to any new .
buildings/structures above and below ground. Further, any feature deemed essential to the operation of
the site (including parking spaces required by municipal by-law, fire routes, underground structures or
servicing, etc.) must be setback a minimum of 14 metres from the Highway 7/12 right-of-way. In addition,
any parking within the 14m setback must be surplus to the site requirements and so denoted on the Site
Plan. The proponent should be aware that Highway 7 is being improved, and that the setback will be
measured from the new property limit.
The Ministry's permit review process includes (but is not be limited to) the review and approval of a
detailed Site Plan and Site Grading/Drainage Plan. Further information on our permit requirements is
available from our office by contacting Mr. Bryan Porter, Permits Officer, at (416-235-5559). Sign
permits may be required as well. Permits must be obtained from Mr. Bryan Porter, Permits Officer
(416) 235-5559, at the above-captioned address.

Subject: Zoning Amendment Application - A 6/10
C. Bollmann
3325 Highway No. 7
Part Lot 2, Concession 5, City of Pickering.
Authority File No. A 6/10.
Purpose of Application:
To permit the extension of a temporary use of a dog day care and boarding facility with accessory retail use onsite.
Authority staff has reviewed the subject application and has no objections to the extension of the temporary use
being requested. While there is a tributary of Lynde Creek with associated floodplain passing through the subject
lands, it is located well away from the on=site building (approximately 270 metres south) and therefore there should
be no risk to the structure or inhabitants as a result of this hazard.
We thank you for the opportunity to comment on this application. If you have any questions regarding these
comments, please contact the undersigned.

PICKERING Report Number: PD 01-11
52 Date: January 4, 2011
From: Neil Carroll
Director, Planning & Development
Subject: Proposed Wireless Cell Tower Installation
Rogers Wireless
5025 Sideline 8
(Part of Lot 7 & 8, Concession 9)
City of Pickering
Recommendation:
1. That Report 01-11 of the Director, Planning & Development be received;
2. That Rogers Wireless be advised that City Council has no objection to the
proposed 60 metre high cell tower installation at 5025 Sideline 8; and
3. Further, that the City Clerk advise Rogers Wireless accordingly.
Executive Summary: On February 25, 2010 Rogers Wireless submitted a proposal
to the City Clerk proposing to construct a 60 metre high self supported free standing cell
tower at 5025 Sideline 8. By Resolution #42/10, the council correspondence
(CORR 19-10) was referred to the Director, Planning & Development for a report.
Since the submission of the initial proposal, Rogers Wireless completed their public
consultation process, in accordance with Industry Canada's requirements. Rogers has
advised that no public comments were received and are requesting that City Council
provide a statement of concurrence in support of the installation.
City staff are supportive of the proposed installation.. There do not appear to be other
opportunities to co-locate this installation in the immediate area. The proposed siting of
the tower and equipment compound appears to minimize any disturbance to existing
vegetation while utilizing the existing vegetation to screen the equipment compound. It
is recommended that Rogers Wireless be advised that City Council has no objection to
the proposed cell tower at 5025 Sideline 8.
Financial Implications: No direct costs to the City are anticipated as a result of the
proposed development.
Report PD 01-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Wireless Cell Tower Installation Page 2
53
Sustainability Implications: Enhancement to the wireless coverage at this location
will improve business and community communication capability.
The proposed tower and associated equipment compound has been sited to minimize
disturbance of existing vegetation.
1.0 Background:
On February 25, 2010, Rogers Wireless submitted a proposal to the City Clerk
outlining its intent to construct a free standing cell tower on the lands municipally
known as 5025 Sideline 8 (see Applicant's Proposal and Sample Notification
Package - Attachment #1 and Location Map - Attachment #2).
1.1 The Proposal
Rogers Wireless proposes to install a 60 metre high self supporting
communication tower and related ground cabinets. The base of the proposed
tower is approximately 7.0 metres wide. The two ground cabinets, which house
the radio equipment, occupy an area of 2.2 metres by 5.0 metres and are located
at the base of the tower. The tower and ground cabinets will be located in a
fenced compound measuring approximately 16.5 metres by 18.0 metres. The
compound is proposed to be set back approximately 50 metres from Regional
Road 5 which will provide the principal access (see Applicant's Submitted Plan -
Attachments #3 & #4).
1.2 Property Description
The lands known as 5025 Sideline 8 are currently zoned W- Rural Agriculture
and `ORM-EP' - Oak Ridges Moraine Environmental Protection in By-law 3037
as amended by By-laws 6577/05 and 6640/06. The area of the property where
the cell tower facility is proposed is entirely within the W- Rural Agriculture
Zone. The subject property currently supports a residential dwelling with a
number of accessory buildings.
The subject lands are surrounded by agriculturalVesidential uses in all directions
from the proposed cell tower with the closest residential dwelling located
approximately 280 metres to the south of the site.
2.0 Discussion:
2.1 Required Public Notification has been completed
Planning & Development staff are currently in the process of developing a
protocol respecting the installation of cell towers for City Council's consideration.
In the absence of a City protocol, applicants must follow Industry Canada's
requirements as outlined in Spectrum Management and Telecommunications
CPC (Client Procedures Circular) 2-0-03 Issue 4.
Report PD 01-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Wireless Cell Tower Installation Page 3
The Industry Canada requirements for public consultation require the proponent
to consult with the land use authority, and the public within a radius of three times
the tower height, measured from the tower base or the outside perimeter of the
supporting structure. For structures greater than 30 metres in height, proponents
are required to place a notice in the local community newspaper.
Based on the proposed 60 metre tower height, the proposed installation required
notification to three adjoining property owners. Rogers has indicated that they
have provided written notification to the three adjoining property owners and
placed a notice of the proposed installation in the April 9, 2010 edition of the
News Advertiser (see Applicant's Proposal and Sample Notification Package -
Attachment #1 and Newspaper Notice - Attachment #5).
Rogers Wireless confirmed that no public comments were received as a result of
the public notification process (see Applicant's Notice of Completion of Public
Consultation - Attachment #6).
2.2 Co-location opportunities have been examined
The installation and creation of separate, stand alone, radio communication
towers and broadcasting facilities is discouraged unless all other co-location
options have been explored and are considered unfeasible. Rogers Wireless
and City staff have reviewed the options of co-locating on existing towers,
locating on hydro transmission towers, using alternative tower structures and
buildings and clustering of the facilities with existing installations, and have
concluded that there are no existing structures in the immediate area that could
be utilized to provide adequate wireless coverage.
2.3 Proposed Tower Location is acceptable
Staff support the proposed location of this cell tower facility. The portion of the
site where the tower and compound are to be located is entirely within the Rural
Agriculture zone and does not impact the portion of the lands within the Oak
Ridges Moraine.
The applicant has proposed to access the site from Regional Road 5. The
proposed tower and equipment compound are to be located in a clearing behind
existing vegetation. The proposed location minimizes disturbance to existing
vegetation and provides adequate screening for the compound from Regional
Road 5. No additional screening is recommended for this installation.
Staff recommend that City Council approve the recommendations in this report
as the proposed installation minimizes disruption to natural features, is not
located in proximity to incompatible and\or sensitive land uses and is located with
appropriate setbacks and screening from Regional Road 5.

Dear Ms Shields:
Re: Rogers Site "9th Concession & 6th Sideline", C3673
Proposed Telecommunications Tower - 9th Concession and 6th Sideline
Part of Lot 7, Concession 9
On behalf of Rogers Wireless ("Rogers"), I would like to submit a site information
package concerning a proposed wireless site located at the above noted location as
required by Industry Canada Directive CPC 2-0-03. This directive requires the applicant
to make our submission to Council, but going forward we will address this issue with
planning staff.
Project Description & Proposed Location
Rogers is constantly improving and expanding its infrastructure to meet the ever-growing
demand for high-quality reliable wireless and data services. The proposed site is needed
to improve our wireless and data services in and around the vicinity of Athens.
The following is a brief overview of the site:
1. Tower type: Self Supported/Free standing, 60 metres in height.
2. Equipment Cabinets: 2 mechanical. equipment cabinets are to be located at the
base of the tower. These cabinets will house the radio equipment used to operate
the site.
3. Notification forms: A copy of the standard public notification form and
newspaper notice is attached.
Municipal Consultation Process
Rogers Wireless is regulated and licensed by Industry Canada to provide inter-provincial
wireless and data services. As a federal undertaking, Rogers is required by Industry
Canada to consult with land-use authorities in siting tower locations. The consultation
process established under Industry Canada's authority is intended to allow the local land-
use authorities the opportunity to address land-use concerns while respecting the federal
I
- r -
IS
S
ATTACHMENT # i TO
REPORT # PD D/^~ c 7
government's exclusive jurisdiction in the siting and operation of wireless and data J
systems.
As the provisions of the Ontario Planning Act and other municipal by-laws and
regulations do not apply to federal undertakings, Rogers is however required to follow
established and documented wireless protocols or processes set forth by land-use
authorities. In instances where those established and documented processes do not exist,
Rogers must follow Industry Canada's Default Consultation Process,, a copy of Industry
Canada's CPC-2-0-03 (Issue 4) is attached describing such default consultation
processes.
In accordance with Industry Canada's CPC, please provide us with a list of property
owners within 180 metres from the tower location as illustrated in the site information
package. For your reference a map showing the properties that fall within the 180 metre
radius is contained in the top left corner of the site plan. Rogers will in turn issue
notification letters (see standard notification letter) for circulation. Rogers will also post
a notice (see standard newspaper notice) in the local newspaper.
Once circulation efforts and notice periods end, Rogers will prepare a summary report for
the municipality's review.
Collocation
Co-location is not possible in this particular situation as there are no other suitable
existing or proposed tower structures in the vicinity that would provide adequate wireless
coverage.
Conclusion
Rogers feels that the proposed site is well located to provide and improve wireless and
data services in the targeted area. The proposed site is also situated and designed so as to
have minimal impact on surrounding land uses.
Rogers looks forward to working with City in providing better service. Kindly review
the site information package; please contact me at 416-402-1169 or
matthew.milligan~rci.rogers.com if there are questions.

Dear Mr. Barnett:
Re: Tower Application
Rogers Site "9th Concession & 6th Sideline", C3673
Proposed Telecommunications Tower - 9th Concession and 6th Sideline
Part of Lot 7, Concession 9
Please find our enclosed application which we have made to the Clerk as required by
industry Canada's directive. Enclosed are multiple copies of the site plan for your
review, along with a draft of the newspaper notice and public notification document.
These documents were drafted in order to comply with Industry Canada's requirements.
In our initial discussion there were some questions about tower height and co-location.
Please consider the following with respect to these issues:
Collocation
There are no co-location options to provide service in the targeted area. The closest
tower is owned by Telus and is located on the Uxbridge/Pickering Townline just west of
Lakeridge Road. Its location, height and existing loading prevent this location from
providing service in the targeted area near to the 9th concession and 6th sideline. Rogers
is looking to co-locate on this tower, but to provide coverage on the local ski resorts.
This location on the Townline will not provide coverage in the targeted area of 9th
concession and 6th sideline.
The next closest tower is on Brock Road just north of Webb Road. This is an existing
Rogers tower which does not provide coverage in the targeted area at 9th concession and
6th sideline.
Tower Heiaht.
I
The proposed tower height is 60 metres. This height is required to ensure, adequate
wireless coverage will be provided in the targeted area and to ensure seamless coverage
with our existing network infrastructure. The tower height is similar to other tower that

have been built in recent years in rural areas of Pickering and other areas around the
GTA.
I trust that we have addressed your initial concerns. If further questions arise prior to the
public notification or if YOU vv'is h io address our application in person, please let rile
know. Rogers looks forward to working with City on this matter.

Purpose
Background & Coverage Requirement
The selection of a wireless telecommunications site works similarly to fitting a piece into
a puzzle. In this case, the puzzle is a complex radio network, situated in a rural setting.
Client demand, radio frequency engineering principles, local topography and land use
opportunities working in concert with one another direct the geography of our sites. In
order to achieve a reliable wireless network, carriers must provide a seamless
transmission signal to alleviate any gaps in coverage. Gaps in coverage are responsible
for dropped calls, and unavailable service to clients. Rogers would utilize the following
proposed site locations in order to provide high quality network signal for its 3G high
speed wireless voice and data network.
Wireless carriers constantly strive to improve coverage and network quality for the sake
of their clients. In the recent past, due to subscriber feedback, our Network Planning
and Engineering departments have become aware of coverage deficiencies new to
Athens
The proposed site is situated in a topographically challenging rural area and the wireless
coverage deficiencies are recognized by the Rogers network. Unfortunately, there were
no existing structures which could have been utilized in the area.
Proposed Site Location
Rogers proposed to build a new telecommunications site approximately 125 metres west
of the intersection of the 9th Concession and Sideline No. 6.
The property's legal description is: Part of Lot 7, Concession No. 9
The geographic coordinates for the site are as follows;
Latitude (NAD 83) 43-59-10N Longitude (NAD 83) 079-04-23
Health Canada's Safety Code 6 Compliance
Rogers attests that the radio antenna system described in this notification package will
comply with Health Canada's Safety Code 6 limits, as may be amended from time to
time, for the protection of the general public including any combined effects of additional
carrier collocations and nearby installations within the local radio environment.
Control of Public Access
The site facility would include a locked, alarmed and electronically monitored mechanical
equipment shelter. Fencing would be installed around the base of the tower and
equipment shelter and would include one locked gate access point.
Canadian Environmental Assessment Act
Rogers attests that the radio antenna system described in this notification package will
comply with the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act as this facility is exempt from
assessment.

Dear Mr. Barnett:
Re: Rogers Site "9th Concession & 6th Sideline", C3673
Proposed Telecommunications Tower - 9th Concession and 6th Sideline
Part of Lot 7, Concession 9
(North Side of the 9th Concession west of the 6th sideline.)
I am writing to follow-up on the public consultation that has taken place for our proposed
telecommunications site at the above reference location and to request a statement of
concurrence from Council. This statement of concurrence will be provided to Industry
Canada to conclude the consultation.
Rogers Wireless is regulated and licensed by Industry Canada to provide inter-provincial
wireless and data services. As a federal undertaking, Rogers is required by Industry
Canada to consult with land-use authorities in siting tower locations. The consultation
process established under Industry Canada's authority is intended to allow the local land-
use authorities and the public the opportunity to address land-use concerns while
respecting the federal government's exclusive jurisdiction in the siting and operation of
wireless and data systems.
The provisions of the Ontario Planning Act and other municipal by-laws and regulations
do not apply to federal undertakings, Rogers is however required to follow established
and documented wireless protocols or processes set forth by land-use authorities. In
instances where those established and documented processes do not exist, Rogers must
follow Industry Canada's Default Consultation Process; CPC-2-0-03 (Issue 4) which was
previously supplied to the Township.
Public Notification
In accordance with Industry Canada's CPC a circulation was undertaken with owners
within three times the height of the tower ((60m x 3) = 180 metres) from the site as
illustrated in the site information package supplied in our package dated February 25,

2010. In addition a public notice was placed in the Pickering News Advertiser on April
9, 2010. As a result of the public notification there were no responses.
Conclusion and Request For Concurrence
Rogers feels that the proposed site is properly located on the subject lands to provide
improved wireless voice and data services in the targeted area. In order to conclude this
landuse consultation and meet Industry Canada's requirements, Rogers Wireless is
requesting that that Town Council issue a Statement of Concurrence that Rogers will
provide to Industry Canada. If you require further information about this matter, please
feel free to contact me at anytime. We look forward to providing enhanced wireless
services in the City of Pickering.

Report To
Planning & Development Committee
PICKERING Report Number: PD 02-11
Date: January 4, 2011 71
From: Neil Carroll
Director, Planning & Development
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands
Recommendation:
1. That Report PD 02-11 of the Director, Planning & Development respecting the
proposed demolition by Transport Canada of nine structures listed on the Heritage
Register, be received for information;
2. That the Federal Minister of Transportation be advised that the City of Pickering is
concerned about the destruction of cultural heritage resources on the Pickering
Lands Site;
3. That the Federal Minister of Transportation be requested to refrain from demolishing
seven listed structures of heritage value, and particularly the two structures at 635
Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road and 5245 Sideline 28 noted within this report as
having a high level of cultural heritage significance, until a decision regarding future
plans for the Pickering Lands Site has been made and the potential for preservation
of these structures can be fully considered;
4. That the Federal Minister of Transportation be requested to fully reimburse the City
for its costs to undertake detailed heritage assessments of the nine buildings which
are the subject of this report, and to fund future assessments required for the
additional (100) buildings identified on the City of Pickering Heritage Register that
are located on the Pickering Lands Site;
5. That Transport Canada be asked to reconvene the Local Heritage Steering
Committee to complete its mandate to develop a heritage strategy for buildings
deemed locally significant; and
6. Further, that the City Clerk forward a copy of Report PD 02-11 and resolution to the
Federal Minister of Transportation, the Regional Director, Programs and Pickering
Lands Branch, Transport Canada, the Region of Durham, the Region of York, the
Towns of Markham and Uxbridge, MP Mark Holland and MPP Joe Dickson and the
MPs and MPPs for Markham and Uxbridge.
Executive Summary: In August 2010, Transport Canada informed the City of its
intention to demolish 41 structures on the federally owned lands within the Pickering
Lands Site (see Attachment #2).
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 2
72
Nine of the 41 structures identified for demolition are listed on the City of Pickering
Heritage Register as being of cultural heritage value or interest (see Location Map -
Attachment #1). At the City's request, Transport Canada agreed to refrain from
demolishing the nine historical structures until the end of January, 2011 to allow staff to
undertake a detailed assessment of the structures, and to allow City Council the
opportunity to review the assessment and provide further direction to staff (see
Attachments #3 and #4). Staff appreciate the cooperation of Transport Canada in
notifying the City of its demolition plans, and agreeing to delay the demolition of
buildings of local heritage interest.
In November 2010, the City retained a consulting team consisting of Martindale
Planning Services in association with John Sabean and Gordon Zimmerman, to
undertake an assessment of the nine heritage structures to identify their structural and
historical significance. The assessments concluded that two of the nine buildings listed
on the Heritage Register do not warrant preservation, but that seven buildings merit
preservation. The original sections of the remaining seven houses are considered
sound and could still be restored. Two houses in particular (635 Uxbridge Pickering
Townline Road and 5245 Sideline 28) are considered to be of sufficient cultural heritage
significance to warrant in-situ preservation.
Given the level of cultural heritage. significance of these seven buildings, and particularly
the two noted buildings, staff recommend that the Federal Minister of Transportation be
advised of Council's concern regarding the destruction of local cultural heritage
resources and request that Transport Canada refrain from demolishing the buildings
until a decision regarding the future plans for the Pickering Lands Site has been made.
In addition to the nine properties considered in this report, there are approximately 100
more structures within the Pickering Lands Site that are listed on the City's Heritage
Register as buildings of heritage interest. Staff recommend that the City request that
Transport Canada reinstate the Local Heritage Steering Committee or equivalent, and
fully fund future assessments necessary to gain a greater understanding of the cultural
heritage resources existing on the Pickering Lands Site.
In the meantime, it is recommended that Heritage Pickering continue with the ongoing
assessment of the heritage buildings on the Pickering Lands Site, as resources permit,
so that notification of any future demolitions can be dealt with by Council in a timely
manner.
Financial Implications: Consultants were retained to undertake a cultural heritage
assessment of the nine properties identified for demolition by Transport Canada that are
included on the City's Heritage Register. The study was funded from the Planning &
Development Department's 2010 general consulting budget as approved by Council,
and in accordance with the City's purchasing standards. Staff recommend that
Transport Canada fully reimburse the City for the costs it incurred to undertake detailed
heritage assessments of these nine buildings.
I
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 3
73
Additional costs will be incurred by the City should it undertake assessments for an
additional 100 identified heritage properties within the Pickering Lands. Staff
recommend that Transport Canada be requested to fully fund the City's costs for these
assessments.
Sustainability Implications: This Report provides information relating to the
objective of preserving buildings having cultural heritage value as an integral part of a
sustainable City. In addition to the historical physical value of the buildings, the
buildings also have a social value in that they form part of the community of northwest
Pickering. Preservation and re-use of the buildings would also divert materials from
landfill sites.
1.0 Background:
1.1 Nine structures of heritage interest situated on the federally owned
Pickering Lands Site property have been identified by Transport Canada for
demolition
In August 2010, Transport Canada informed the City of Pickering of its intention
to demolish 41 structures on the. federally owned lands within the Pickering
Lands Site. The Pickering Lands Site consists of lands in north Pickering that
are being reserved by the federal government for a possible future airport. It is
staff's understanding that this demolition contract is one of a series of demolitions
to be undertaken in the future.
Nine of the 41 structures identified for demolition are listed on the City of
Pickering Heritage Register. Transport Canada's position with respect to the
treatment of heritage structures is that they are bound to recognize only buildings
having federal historical significance. For buildings with local heritage
significance, Transport Canada will allow the documentation of the structures,
and the removal of parts or all of the structures for preservation elsewhere (e.g.
Pickering Museum), with the understanding that any of these strategies for
preservation would be undertaken by municipalities or local interest groups at
their cost. Vacant heritage buildings not removed by others are scheduled for
demolition even if found to have local heritage value.
At the City's request, Transport Canada agreed to refrain from demolishing the
nine historical structures until the. end of January, 2011 to allow staff to undertake
a detailed assessment of the structures, and to allow City Council the opportunity
to review the assessment and provide further direction to staff. Demolition
permits were recently issued for the 32 non-heritage structures. Staff appreciate
the cooperation of Transport Canada in notifying the City of its demolition plans,
and agreeing to delay the demolition of buildings of local heritage interest.
I~
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 4

The nine heritage structures are located at the following addresses:
• 429 Eighth Concession Road _
• 140 Seventh Concession Road
• 5165 Sideline 22
• 5050 Sideline 24
• 1095 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road
• 840 Eighth Concession Road
• 5245 Sideline 28
• 635 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road
• 5413 Sideline 30
1.2 Heritage assessments have been undertaken
In November 2010, the City retained a consulting team consisting of Martindale
Planning Services in association with John Sabean and Gordon Zimmerman, to
undertake an assessment of the nine heritage structures to identify their
structural and historical significance. The consultants were asked to provide the
following for each of the properties having heritage interest:
• a description of the property
• a statement of the Cultural Heritage Attributes of the property including:
o Historical and Associative Value
o Contextual Value
o Physical Value
o Significant Architectural Attributes
• a map showing the context of the property
• photographs of the structure within its setting and
• photographs and descriptions of the interior as appropriate
Site visits took place during the last week of November, 2010.
2.0 Discussion:
2.1 Two of the nine buildings listed on the Heritage Register do not warrant
preservation
The buildings identified for demolition at 425-429 Eighth Concession Road and
5413 Sideline 30 do not warrant preservation. Two houses are located on the
single property at 425 - 429 Eighth Concession Road. The structure identified
for demolition (429 Eighth Concession Road) was found to have no heritage
value (see Attachment #5). The house at 425 Eighth Concession Road is the
structure identified in the Heritage Registry as being of heritage interest. It is
currently tenanted and is not proposed to be demolished at this time.
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 5 75
With respect to 5413 Sideline 30, the investigation concluded that significant
external and internal renovations and high levels of internal mould and physical
damage have made the house unworthy of preservation (see Attachment #6).
2.2 Seven of the nine buildings listed on the Heritage Register merit
conservation and potential future designation
The remaining seven buildings were found to merit preservation and potential
future designation. Two of the seven (635 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road
and 5245 Sideline 28) were found to be of high cultural heritage value.
The following are summaries of the assessments for each property. The
complete assessment reports are available at the Planning & Development
Department.
635 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road
This house is one of a set of six "workers" houses that together form the eastern
gateway into the hamlet of Altona. The houses are rumored to have been built
for the six sons of the original settler. The set of houses together form a cultural
heritage landscape of a type that is very rarely found in rural Ontario and that is
identified in architectural heritage resource documents as warranting further
research and evaluation. The original part of this house is still sound. The later
one-storey addition to the rear is in disrepair and for safety reasons and longer
term preservation of the original structure, should be removed. This house is very
important as an integral part of this cultural heritage feature (see Attachment #7).
5245 Sideline 28
This house is of plank-on-plank construction, a construction form that was
infrequently employed in North America in the mid 19th Century. It is quite large
for the style of construction and although all of the cladding has been removed
from the exterior, only a small section of the exterior lumber wall is showing signs
of rot. Although the front of the house is of a centre hall (three bay) plan, the rear
was originally divided into two rooms (two bays). Two doors, possibly original,
led to a side veranda. Very early renovation of the main floor resulted in changes
to the rear partition wall locations, but the interior finishes and trim are quite
unique in design and profile, and remain very largely intact. The uniqueness of
the structure, its original high quality construction and current soundness
underscore its tremendous value as a permanent structure in the community.
This building should be retained and restored (see Attachments #8 and #9).
1095 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road
This small residence may have been the home of the local blacksmith. The
original building is still structurally sound. A later back addition is in disrepair and
should be removed for long term preservation of the original structure and for
safety reasons (see Attachment #10).
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 6
76 5050 Sideline 24
A building of very significant heritage value with high quality exterior and interior
finishes and few alterations affecting the heritage elements of the structure is
located on this property. This building sustained fire damage in recent years.
The rear kitchen addition is in extremely poor shape and should be removed and
preferably replaced, but areas of the original main house are still sound and the
structure could be restored despite the fire damage. Valuable salvageable
material may be removed from the structure for use at the Pickering Museum if
the building is to be demolished .(see Attachment #11).
5165 Sideline 22
A unique construction technique and floor plan were discovered in the house at
this location. The building was originally built as a one-storey plank-on-plank
house (see Attachment #9) having two doors located in the centre of the north
and south facades each of which were connected to vestibules leading into two
large rooms on the east and west sides of the house. The house was
subsequently modified with a second storey and back kitchen additions. Due to
structural compromises occurring through the renovation process, the exterior
walls are considerably bowed. Restoration to the original house would still be
possible, however. The Pickering Museum may also find some useful
salvageable materials in this structure for display and maintenance purposes
(see Attachment #12)..
840 Eighth Concession Road
This residence has only recently been vacated. It has floor to ceiling front room
windows and a less than common fan light window above the front door. The
cellar stairs have been removed and the interior rear of the house has undergone
significant renovation, but the house is still considered sound and could be
restored with a relatively small.financial investment (see Attachment #13).
140 Seventh Concession Road
The house at this location is in good condition with the exception of later front
and side deck additions. The interior has undergone some renovation.
Attractive, possibly original barge boards and a centre gable finial as well as
original interior trim still speak to its former quality. Still structurally sound, this
building could be restored (see Attachment #14).
Given the level of cultural heritage significance of these seven buildings, and
particularly the two buildings at 635 Uxbridge Pickering Townline Road and 5245
Sideline 28, staff recommend that the Federal Minister of Transportation be
advised of Councirs concern regarding the destruction of local cultural heritage
resources and request that the Transport Canada refrain from demolishing the
buildings until a decision regarding the future plans for the Pickering Lands Site
has been made. Delaying demolition of heritage structures until the land needs
of a future airport are known would prevent the unnecessary destruction of
valuable heritage resources if the properties are ultimately returned to private
ownership.
Report PD 02-11 January 4, 2011
Subject: Proposed Demolition of Listed Heritage Structures on Federal Lands Page 7

2.3 Proposed strategy for assessing additional heritage structures on the
Pickering Lands Site
In addition to the nine properties considered in this report, there are
approximately 100 more structures within the Pickering Lands Site that are listed
on the City's Heritage Register as buildings of heritage interest. While some are
still occupied, a number of the buildings are vacant and boarded and are not
being maintained.
The City does not currently have a strategy for dealing with these buildings.
Although Heritage Pickering is working through the properties listed on the
Heritage Register to identify those worthy of designation under the Ontario
Heritage Act, funding and resources are limited. In addition, the current
Transport Canada position regarding certain demolition of locally significant
heritage structures limits the City's strategy to documentation and salvage only,
in the absence of funding and alternative sites for relocation of the building.
Transport Canada, in response to concerns from local heritage groups and
Municipalities in 2005, had indicated a willingness to work with municipalities
through the creation of a Local Heritage Steering Committee to develop a
strategy for structures determined to have local heritage significance. This action
resulted from the proposed demolition of the Tullis Cottage (also known as the
Barclay House) in Pickering at the time. The Steering Committee had
representation from the City of Pickering and the Towns of Markham and
Uxbridge. Transport Canada provided funding at that time to undertake the
assessments of some of the identified structures. Although a working
sub-committee met on several occasions to prioritize a list of heritage resources
and begin to undertake evaluations, the work was never completed, and the
Steering Committee has never re-convened.
Staff recommend that the City request that Transport Canada reinstate the Local
Heritage Steering Committee or equivalent, and fully fund future assessments
necessary to gain a greater understanding of the cultural heritage resources
existing on the Pickering Lands Site.
In the meantime, it is recommended that Heritage Pickering continue with the
ongoing assessment of the heritage buildings on the Pickering Lands Site, as
resources permit, so that notification of any future demolitions can be dealt with
by Council in a timely manner.

Dear Ms. Shields:
Please be advised that Transport Canada intends to.undertake demolition activity on numerous
structures situated on the federally owned Pickering Lands Site property, located within the municipal
boundaries of the City of Pickering.
The structures in question are all currently vacant, each having access restriction barriers in place to
prevent vehicle access, however, each remains accessible by foot. The structures pose obvious
hazards to individuals who frequently, whether authorized or illegally, attempt to access the properties
or view them from close proximity.
Transport. Canada is committed to ensuring that structures on the Pickering Lands Site do not
compromise the safety of tenants, members of the general public, Transport Canada's employees or
agents. For this reason, I recently had the opportunity to meet with the City's Chief Administrative
Officer as well as the City's Director of the Planning & Development Department, to discuss the
aforementioned, as well as our intentions of proceeding with this imminent demolition undertaking. It
is our understanding that seven (7) locations may be of local interest to the City. As a result we will
delay the removal of these structures until the latter stages of the project this fiscal year, thereby
allowing the City the opportunity to undertake any internal assessments it deems necessary.
Transport Canada continues to support information sharing and working in a collaborative manner
with our neighbouring municipal partners such as the City of Pickering. To this end I have enclosed a
listing (Annex "A"), outlining each location where structures are scheduled for removal this fiscal year.
Should you require any further information. please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours truly, D~ r

Subject: Transport Canada Notification of Intention to Demolish 41 Structures
- File: A-3300-005
We have had an opportunity to review your letter of August 19, 2010, advising the City
Clerk of Transport Canada's intention to demolish 41 structures situated on the federally
owned Pickering Lands Site property. The letter also indicates that the demolition of
seven structures identified as being of local interest to the City will be delayed until the
latter stages of the demolition project, in order to give the City time to undertake any
necessary assessments.
Nine of the 41 structures listed in your August 19, 2010 letter are included in the
Pickering Heritage Register. These nine properties are identified on the listing attached
to this letter. At our meeting on August 12, 2010, Transport Canada advised that it
would be applying to the City for demolition permits for all structures, to be demolished,
and would follow Provincial legislative protocol with respect to notification prior to
demolishing the structures listed on the Heritage Register.
The Ontario Heritage Act provides for a 60 day notification period to allow municipalities
to review demolition requests. In this case, the 60 day notification period would lapse in
mid-October 2010. We respectfully request that Transport Canada refrain from
demolishing the nine structures in question until the end of January 2011 in order for
City staff to undertake a detailed assessment of the nine structures, and to allow City
Council the opportunity to review the assessment and provide further direction.. Due to
the upcoming municipal election, City Council will not have the opportunity to formally
comment respecting these nine structures until mid-January 2011.

Should retention of the structures in their original state not be a viable option, we further
request permission for City staff or its agents to enter onto the lands in order to
document the structures and to be granted salvage rights so that significant structural
and decorative elements that may be identified be made available to the Pickering
Museum.
We thank you for your consideration and look forward to your response.
Yours truly

Dear Mr. Carroll,
Thank you for your correspondence of September 29, 2010, regarding Transport
Canada's plan to demolish 41 vacant structures situated on the Pickering Lands within
the City of Pickering. We are happy to comply with your request to delay the demolition
of the nine structures identified in the Pickering Heritage Register until the end of
January, 2011. However, as it will not be possible to delay the demolition beyond this
point, we' would urge you to move forward with your assessment of the properties well
before this time. Demolition or removal of these structures must take place before March
31, 2010, therefore appropriate lead time. must be set aside to complete preparatory
work.
Transport Canada is certainly amenable to allowing City staff or City agents on to
federal property to inspect the structures in order to document and salvage materials if
desired. Again, please proceed with any inspections well before January 2011. Please
contact Perry Papadatos, Regional Manager, Pickering Site Operations, at 416-952-
4068 for all questions or concerns related to accessing these structures.
Yours sincerely,
Rob Berge '
