Catherine Rose, Chief Planner, appeared before the Committee to act as facilitator for the Statutory Public Meeting portion of the meeting, explaining t he process for discussion purposes as well as the order of speakers. 3.1 Information Report No. 01-21 City Initiated: Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment Infill and Replacement Housing in Established Neighbourhoods Draft Amendment 40 to the Pickering Official Plan Draft Zoning By-law Amendment Files: OPA 20-006/P and A 11/20 A statutory public meeting was held under the Planning Act, for the purpose of informing the public with respect to the above-noted application. Margaret Kish, Principal Planner-Policy, provided the Committee with an overview of Official Plan Amendment Application OPA 20-006/P, and Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 11/20. Through the aid of a PowerPoint presentation, Ms. Kish outlined the recommendations of the Infill and Replacement Housing in Established Neighbourhoods Study, the planning approval process, the planning policy framework, and the meeting notification process. Ms. Kish outlined the comments received for further review and consideration and the next steps for the applications. Chair Brenner advised Members of the Committee that Lisa-Lynne Robinson, who had previously registered as a delegate for this item, was no longer able to delegate and that she would be submitting written comments to the City Development Department on this matter. Moved by Councillor McLean Seconded by Councillor Pickles That the rules of procedure be suspended in order to add Michael Mandarello and Nick Dimovski as delegations to the agenda. Carried on a Two-Thirds Vote Glenn McLeod, 151 Twyn Rivers Drive¸ joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and inquired whether the Twyn Rivers Drive was included in the woodlands neighbourhood precinct as identified in the Report. Mr. McLeod noted that perspective buyers were eager to purchase homes in his neighbourhood, and 2 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner introducing restrictions on home sizes would be detrimental to the sale price and equity of the houses. He added that the majority of the homes within his neighbourhood consist of larger homes with smaller homes being the minority. He concluded his delegation by asking Members of the Committee to reconsider the proposed 33 per cent footprint lot size noting that that 40 per cent was more realistic. Sana Moumani, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that she currently resides on Rosebank Road and that majority of the houses in the neighbourhood consist of larger homes and that the proposed changes would be unfair to owners of smaller homes in the neighbourhood. Diane Seeley, 597 Nomad Rd, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and inquired about the rational to exempt certain streets within a precinct from the proposed changes, specifically Dunn Street from the Rosebank Neighbourhood precinct. Ms. Seeley concluded her delegation by noting that while she was in support of the Report she was not in support of exempting certain streets as this was defeating the purpose of what had been initiated two years ago. Chair Brenner advised delegates that the purpose of the statutory public meeting was to listen to the comments and feedback which would be incorporated into the recommendation report that would come back before the Committee. Chair Brenner confirmed with City Development staff that when the recommendation report was brought back to the Committee, it would provide answers to the questions posed by delegates. Paul White, Fairport Beach Neighborhood Association, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted the Association’s involvement in the planning process of the proposed changes. Mr. White stated that consistent legislation is important and required to maintain the existing character of neighbourhoods. He further stated that a tree protection by-law and a by-law to regulate the width of driveways is needed, highlighting concerns regarding expansion of driveways causing water runoff and drainage issues. Mr. White concluded his delegation by thanking SGL and City Staff for the Report. Mike Borie, 1044 Escott Court, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that on April 23, 2019, City Council passed a resolution for Staff to proceed with Phase 2 of the Infill and Replacement Housing in Established Neighborhoods Study and to incorporate into the Study the inclusion of a vision for the Nautical Village and noted that Information Report 01-21 does not reference the Nautical Village. Mr. Borie inquired why the vision for the Nautical Village was not included in this report, given the upcoming LPAT hearing and the concerns 3 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner expressed by Pickering Residents. He added that there had been a survey that had been conducted pertaining to the infill study and asked whether residents could obtain a complete copy of this survey as the survey was not included in Report 01-21. Mr. Borie concluded his delegation by noting that while the proposed by-laws were necessary, also vital was the inclusion of the Nautical Village Vision as was requested by Council. Paul Weppler, 417 Woodgrange Avenue, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that the existing by-laws and processes were working well to allow the appropriate replacement of older homes. Mr. Weppler noted that the new homes comply with the existing zoning by-laws and satisfy the market demand for larger family homes, adding that these neighbourhoods were transitioning from small dwellings to new larger family housing. He further noted that the study unfairly vilifies large family houses, while larger homes provide the space and amenities needed for today's families including home offices and accommodations for senior family members. Mr. Weppler raised concerns regarding the design standards, adding that the 'Urban Design Guideline Checklist' is arbitrary and subjective, and would create a new layer of municipal approval that would further create delays and increase costs in obtaining approvals for redevelopment. He added that he owns a property on Park Crescent, between two large replacement houses, noting that the proposed changes would only allow him to replace the existing house with one half the size of his neighbours. He further raised concerns regarding the limit of the precincts, adding that it is unnecessary to single out neighbourhood precincts as all areas should be governed equitably with the same by-laws and the official plan. He further raised concerns regarding the proposed side yard setbacks, restrictions on the width of an attached garage, and driveways, noting that the City and ratepayers would incur significant financial consequences should the proposed changes be approved. Mr. Weppler concluded his delegation by asking the Members of the Committee to oppose the proposed changes. Dana Saccoccio, 417 Woodgrange Avenue, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and read a letter dated January 3, 2021, which was emailed to the Members of the Committee prior to the meeting. The letter noted concerns regarding the proposed changes to lot coverage, width of attached garages, side yard setbacks, and the subjective preferences of the Design Guideline Checklist. Ms. Saccoccio concluded her delegation by asking Members of the Committee to oppose the proposed changes and to provide Pickering property owners with equal respect for property values related to development potential and current lifestyle needs. Garry Winsor, 600 West Shore Boulevard, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that the Federal Government had recently budgeted over 4 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner three billion dollars to plant two billion trees, and advised that the City should establish or adopt a by-law similar to the City of Vancouver and the City of Toronto to prevent builders from cutting down healthy mature trees and to provide protection during construction. He further noted the need for permits to remove trees of 20 centimeters or larger in diameter, and the removal of such trees only be allowed under certain circumstances such as outlined in the City of Vancouver’s By-law. Elizabeth Italiano, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that the Study was now out of date as the world had changed due to COVID-19. Ms. Italiano noted that there is more need to work from home resulting in more individuals needing larger homes to accommodate home offices. She advised that as a consultant, working from home, she was required by her employer to meet a number of demands which require additional space, adding that such requirements are becoming more stringent. She added that the proposed changes would discourage desirable demographic groups, such as working professionals, in moving to Pickering. Ms. Italiano noted that lot coverage of 40 to 45 per cent would be more realistic and that eight foot ceilings are no longer the standard. She further added that the proposed changes would affect older homes that are in need of reconstruction, and that the proposed changes do not consider the need for space for virtual learning, multi-generational living to care for elderly family members, and property equity potential. Ms. Italiano concluded her delegation by noting her objection to the proposed changes. Lewellyn Pereira, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that early on in this process, he had presented the need to protect established neighbourhoods which included variables that define the character of neighbourhoods, adding that he had formed these conclusions based on research, the various studies conducted in Ontario, and feedback from residents and the community. He added that he was pleased to see that SGL had reached similar conclusions, noting that their recommendations were not restrictive enough or ideal. Mr. Pereira asked for the implementation of temporary restrictions for tree protection until the studies were completed adding that trees in the West Shore and the Fairport Beach neighbourhoods were being cut down frequently. He concluded his delegation by asking Members of the Committee to endorse the recommendations of the Report noting that the involvement by the community is unprecedented and should not be ignored. Sarab Kaur, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection in opposition to the recommendations of Information Report 01-21. Ms. Kaur raised concerns regarding the impact on the real estate market, population demographic, and streetscape. 5 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner Andrew Simanovskis, 1868 Fairport Road, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection to discuss a land severance application he had submitted to the City. Chair Brenner requested that Staff follow up with Mr.Simanovskis after the meeting as the subject matter of the delegation was not directly related to Information Report 01-21. Jackie Reynolds, 604 West Shore Boulevard, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection in opposition to Report 01-21 and noted that the proposed amendments would affect the sale of her home. She asked the Committee to remove areas from West shore to Sunrise from the Study, as they were prime waterfront property, and that these restrictions should be implemented for more applicable areas. She added that now more than ever, people were looking for larger homes and that this Study was outdated. Ms. Reynolds raised further concerns regarding the vagueness of the meeting notification she had received in the mail, and al so noted that the residents of the smaller homes in the community were parking on the streets due to the small driveways and that the proposed changes would worsen these conditions. John Lambert, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that a conflict existed since more homes were being built which translated to more driveways, and an increase in the amount of concrete and people. Mr. Lambert raised concerns regarding the change to the Zoning and noted that this could potentially mean more families living in small areas. Tony Harold, 1023 Lytton Court, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that the Study was robust and encompassed critical areas that are of concern to residents and developers. He stated that revising existing neighbourhood standards to allow for greater density does not preserve the character of the neighbourhood nor would it be in the best interest of the residents in that neighbourhood. Mr. Harold referred to the Centreville planning application, noting that it highlighted the concerns that the infill study raised. He noted that there are two solutions to the Centreville application which both included working with the builder to reduce the number of homes. Mr. Harold also made reference to the Oak Hills planning application adding that the City and the applicant worked collaboratively to arrive at a solution, he noted that this should be done for this study as well. Eileen Higdon, 852 Fairview Avenue, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection in support of the Information Report 01-21 and asked why the Nautical Village was not included in the study. Ms. Higdon further noted that while the study was not perfect, and is in need of adjustments, it is a step forward. 6 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner David Steele, Pickering West Shore Community Association (PWSCA), joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that the PWSCA’s support for the recommendations in the Report, adding the need for tree preservation implementation. Mr. Steele noted that the proposed changes would result in keeping the character of the West Shore community neighborhood intact as the City changes. Mr. Steele inquired whether the rules on established community precincts had been changed and when the R4 boundaries of West Shore would be included in the established neighborhood precincts. Mr. Steele further raised concerns regarding the unfair position young professionals are in when placed in a bidding war with developers over older houses. He concluded his delegation by requesting that the Nautical Village study be included in the final report before it is presented to Council. Michael Mandarello, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that many residents in Pickering do not understand the proposed changes. Mr. Mandarello noted his disagreement with the changes to the lot coverage, adding that the changes would not allow people to build what they desire. He inquired whether minor variances were given to allow for height restrictions and over building. Mr. Mandarello concluded his delegation by noting that the current rules in place were effective and the need to inform people of the proposed changes and the effects to their property value. Nick Dimovski, 1923 Spruce Hill Road, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that he and his wife were in the planning stages of building their dream home in Pickering and have spent money on preparing the plans for a permit. He added that he had bought a bungalow home on Spruce Hill Road which they planned to demolish and build a newer home, noting that most cottage homes in the area were in need of repair and some had even been abandoned. He noted that the proposed changes would restrict Pickering residents from competing in the real estate markets within their own neighbourhoods, as most of the areas identified in the Report are made up of newer homes. Mr. Dimovski concluded his delegation by noting his objection to the proposed changes and asked Members of the Committee to reconsider the report. Moved by Councillor McLean Seconded by Councillor Ashe That the Committee take a short recess. Carried The Committee recessed at 9:24 pm and reconvened at 9:34 pm. 7 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner The City Clerk conducted a roll call after the recess and confirmed that all Members of the Committee were present save and except Councillor Pickles.

Cody Morrison, Planner II, provided the Committee with an overview of Official Plan Amendment Application OPA 20-001/P, Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 05/20, and Draft Plan of Subdivision Application SP-2020-01. Through the aid of a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Morrison outlined the subject lands, previous proposals, and the planning policy framework, noting that the applications propose to facilitate a high-density residential condominium development within the developable portion of the subject lands, consisting of a 20-storey apartment building c ontaining 307 dwelling units, nine s treet townhouse units and 64 stacked townhouse units. Mr. Morrison outlined the c omments received for further review and consideration, and the next steps in the applications. Dana Anderson, MHBC, Planning, Urban Design & Landscape Architecture, and Elyse Snyder, Kohn Architects, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted Sean Lawrence, Kohn Architects, and Michael Linton, Crozier Consulting Engineers, were also connected via audio and were available for questions. Through the aid of a PowerPoint presentation, Ms. Anderson noted that in relation to area context the lands were approximately a total of 5.047 hectares, and as noted in the Report, 3.7 hectares of the lands were l ocated in a natural heritage area, and that these lands would be conveyed to the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA). She provided an overview of the subject property, access points provided, policies and the regulatory framework pertaining to the subject lands, site history, applications and the current status of the applications. Elise Snyder outlined the design strategies incorporated in the proposal, noting the findings of a Sun/Shadow study which found that the proposed location of the building would minimize shadowing and overlook impacts to the Mosque and the neighbourhoods to t he north. 8 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner Ishtiaq Ahmed, 2123 Saffron Drive, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and highlighted concerns regarding the proposed development. Through the aid of a PowerPoint presentation, Mr. Ahmed noted that while residents were in favour of development in Pickering, they do not feel that the subject lands were the correct location for the proposed development. He further advised that a petition had been submitted against the proposed development, with 358 signatories from area households in immediate vicinity. He added that the subject lands were already dense and raised concerns regarding access points and relating traffic and safety concerns. He further added that the traffic generated by the mosque should be considered when considering any development in the area, as there is only one exit from the neighbourhood, and that the proposed development would add to already existing traffic concerns. He further noted that the proposed development would compromise the privacy of area residents and that an additional parkette would be needed as Usman Park is already experiencing a high volume of traffic. He discussed the existing character of the neighbourhood and the requirements outlined in the Pickering Official Plan, adding that new development should reflect this. Mr. Ahmed concluded his delegation by asking Members of the Committee to only consider development that would be in keeping with the existing character of the neighbourhood. Shihab Zaman-Apu, 2189 Sunflower Road, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted concerns regarding the hyper density, and the flow of traffic generated by the Islamic Centre that would be inflated by the proposed development. Mr. Zaman-Apu noted that there were many other lands in the area suitable for the proposed development, and asked Members of the Committee to keep the density in the area at a manageable level. Mr. Syed, Pickering Resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and raised concerns regarding traffic congestion, and added that Usman Park was already experiencing a high volume of traffic. Mr. Syed further outlined the adverse impacts to the environment due to the close vicinity of Duffins Creek. Mr. Syed concluded his delegation by asking Members of the Committee to reconsider the proposed development. Maureen Schorn, Pickering resident, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that she had sent a photograph of the subject lands to the Members of Committee portraying the natural beauty of the lands. She further commented on the adverse impact to the already existing traffic concerns if the proposed development was approved. She noted that the 2018 proposal which provided the option to area residents to upgrade to larger townhomes, would have been the ideal proposal. She added that the proposed tower should be reversed, so that the townhomes were facing greenery and not the road. Ms. Schorn 9 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner concluded her delegation by asking Members of the Committee to oppose the proposed development. Muhammad Naeem, 2131 Saffron Drive, joined the electronic meeting via audio connection and noted that he had been a long time Pickering resident and that he was also a board member of the Pickering Islamic Centre (PIC). Mr. Naeem noted that subject lands were not the suitable location for the proposed development, as the proposal would worsen the existing traffic conditions on Usman Road. He added that the proposed development would also be unfair for those who moved into the area believing it to be a low rise area. Mr. Naeem noted that the PIC, in addition to being a place of worship, was a day time school, and served as a community center. He added that the PIC had submitted a zoning amendment application to accommodate a three storey school building and a multi-level parking space, and that Usman road is the only entrance for the PIC. He further inquired whether the proposed building would be a rental building. Rafia Tazeen, 2123 Saffron Drive, joined the electronic meeting v ia audio connection and raised concerns regarding high density, traffic, noting only development proposals containing the existing density level would be suitable for the area. Ms. Tazeen further noted that there should be open space provided to the residents of any new development as Usman Park was already experiencing a high volume of traffic. She concluded her delegation by asking Members of the Committee to only consider development that is suitable to the existing character of the subject lands. A question and answer period ensued between Members of the Committee, Dana Anderson, Elyse Snyder, and Staff regarding: • whether the sun/shadow study conducted by the applicant considered the impact of shadows for the entire year; • the necessity of traffic signalization for Usman road; • whether the City was pursuing open park space with the developer for residents of the proposed development; • whether the lands being dedicated to the TRCA had reduced over the course of time and whether the lands located behind Saffron Drive were ever intended to be dedicated to the TRCA; • whether the reference to “greenbelt” in the Report was in relation to the Ontario Greenbelt or greenbelt space generally and the rational for removing that component; • clarification on moving the subject lands from a commercial site to a residential space as there had been previous discussion on allowing for commercial development on the subject lands; and, 10 -Cift;of­ p](KERJNG Planning & Development Committee Draft Meeting Minutes January 4, 2021 Electronic Meeting – 7:00 pm Chair: Councillor Brenner • whether Durham Regional Police were included as a commenting agency on the application. 3.3 Information Report No. 03-21 Draft Plan of Subdivision Application SP-2020-02 Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 10/20 Medallion Developments (Pickering Finch) Ltd.
