Mr. Harper advised that the proposal includes private medical services that are complimented by recreational facilities, an on -site dolor's residence, and a 45-unit apartment building. Mr. Harper reviewed the contents of the report, advising .that the proposed amendments would change the planned land use on the subject lands from a low density residential land use to a mixed use development containing residential, institutional, and commercial components. Mr. Harper reviewed the location of the property and current uses of the subject and surrounding lands which are predominantly existing orfuture low density residential homes. Mr. Harper explained that planning staff have identified that the following matters need to be addressed in greater detail prior to making a final recommendation to Council on the applications: • the incorporation of public input into the review of the subject applications; • continued review of existing and revised technical studies, • conformity of the applications to applicable Provincial, Regional and Town policies; and • consideration of the subject application relative to existing and future surrounding land uses to assess the compatibility and appropriateness of the proposed amendments Mr. Harper further advised that there are several outlying concerns expressed by other departments and external agencies which include, but are not limited to: • the entire development requires 309 parking spaces based on Zoning By-law parking rates whereas 246 are proposed (63 space shortfall); • Landform Conservation Report (LCR) submitted by the application fails to provide adequate reasoning for proposed disturbances to the site; • concerns with respect to hydrogeology cover matters such as assumptions outlined in the water balance methodology and calculations; • potential water quality issues, addressing wellhead protection policies of OPA #48, and the need for discussion on the potential interference with private wells in the vicinity of the subject lands; • proposed setbacks do not conform with the minimum standards expressed within the secondary plan. Mr. Harper concluded by advising Council of its options with respect to these applications and recommended that any issues expressed at the Public Planning Meeting or In writing be addressed in a comprehensive report to a future Public Planning Meeting and that staff continue working with the applicant in processing and evaluating the applications. 9 COUNCIL - FEB2UA`�Y 1Q, dZgQ� dPu�///��lic Planing Minutes 09-02 - 3 pecra ounct — u I c tanning Minutes No. 9-D1 Wednesday, January 28, 2009 Page 3 of 5 Applicant/Agent Ms Kim Taylor -Galway, Sites Ambassador for the applicant, and Mr. Peter Smith, Planning Consultant, presented a promotional video which provided a conceptual look at the project entitled the "Aurora Wellness Village and Spa" which would feature a community approach to health and well-being in the theme of a French chateau.

Public Comments Ms Susan Walmer, representing the Aurora Yonge South Ratepayers Group, advised that a previous application proposing a higher density was proposed for the lands adjacent to the subject property several years ago and that the application was appealed at the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB), resulting in a decision from the OMB to deny the application and retain the original density at 2 units per acre. Ms Walmer advised that the Aurora Yonge South Ratepayers Group has numerous concerns and is opposed to this application. Ms Walmer expressed many concerns on behalf of the Ratepayers Goup which included, but were not limited to: • various aspects of the applications do not meet Town standards; • parking deficiencies are proposed to be mitigated by adding an underground parking component to the application, which could be unstable due to the softness and sand content of the soil in that area; • lack of proper consultation with the affected residents; • these applications conflict with the integrity of the Official Plan. Ms Walmer concluded by requesting that Council reject this application outright. Mr. Tony Murphy of Frankfield Estates Inc., advised that he represents the developers of the estate homes directly to the North of Elderberry Trail. Mr. Murphy explained that his development company has agreed to provide full water and sewer servicing for the surrounding area under the assurance that the system will.be accommodating residential dwelling units only, as the Zoning By- law specified. Mr. Murphy expressed his concerns with respect to the scope and density of the proposed project on the grounds that it will require a much higher level of servicing than that which the pumping system was designed for. Mr. Murphy expressed concern regarding the lack of consultation with respect to the proposed zoning and Official Plan amendments considering the direct impact they will have on his and future development in that area. Mr. Murphy also advised that the commercial component of the application is a concern, as this may have a negative impact on current and prospective home buyers in the Frankfeld Estates subdivision.

Hammond advised that he recently moved into one of the homes directly to the north of the subject lands, and he was told upon purchasing that the subject lands would be used for more estate homes. Mr. Hammond advised that OPA #4B specifies 25% land use for that area and the proposed development is requesting 49%, far exceeding the originally specified capacity. Mr. Hammond expressed concern regarding, the visual impact and traffic increase resulting from the commercial aspects of this resort type facility. Mr. Ed O'Brien addressed Council again to add that numerous new and prospective home owners who aren't aware of the proposal have not been notified and haven't had the opportunity to review the application.

From: Neil Garbe Re: Donation of Naming Rights — Southlake Regional Health Centre Foundation Gala The Town has been asked to participate in a live auction donation at a Gala for The Southlake Foundation, which is being held to support the new Regional Cancer Care Program. The proposal is to auction off the opportunity to name the new Parkette in the subdivision located at the northeast corner of Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad, subject to the compliance with the Town of Aurora Naming Policy (attached). The "On the Red Carpet' Gala will be held on Saturday, October 17, 2009 . In the past, convention has had developers of subdivisions suggest names of parks or parkettes to the Town, and then the Town Council would approve or refuse the name in accordance with the Policy. The same process would be used in this case other than the successful bidder would suggest the name rather than the developer. The recommendation is to•allow the naming opportunity to be auctioned in support of the Regional Cancer Care Program.

The 2007 Gala was in support of our new Regional Cancer Care Program and in donating the naming. rights of a parkette in the Brookvalley subdivision to the live auction, there was a great deal of money generated directly for this Program. As we are now in the midst of planning the 2009 Southlake Gala, we are asking once again that the Town of Aurora generously consider and provide the opportunity to auction off the naming rights to the future Town park in the approved plan of subdivision located at the northeast corner of Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad. The "On the Red Carpet" Gala will be held on Saturday, October 17, 2009 and this signature event will once again benefit the Southlake Regional Cancer Care Program. We are anticipating over 1000 guests from our community and we are proud that this event enjoys the largest participation of any single fundraiser in support of Southlake. The citizens of Aurora and Aurora Council have been very supportive of the Southlake Regional Cancer Program and we hope that this support will be continued in the form of Council once again granting a parkette naming opportunity to benefit the Cancer Program.

The proposal is to auction off the opportunity to name the new parkette in the subdivision located at the northeast corner of Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad, subject to the compliance with the Town of Aurora Naming Policy (attached). The "On the Red Carpet" Gala will be held on Saturday, October 17, 2009. The Town Council is responsible for the approval of names of parks and parkettes. The same process would be used in this case other than the successful bidder would suggest the name rather than the developer. The recommendation is to allow the naming opportunity to be auctioned in support of the Regional Cancer Care Program. Neil Garbe Chief Administrative Officer NG:lak
