11 RES.#B109/04 - Moved by: Seconded by: THE CITY OF VAUGHAN Conveyance of Land for a Partial Cul-de-Sac for the Reconstruction of Canada Company Avenue Humber River Watershed, City of Vaughan, CFN Receipt of a request from the City of Vaughan for the conveyance of land for a partial cul-de-sac, north end and east side of Canada Company Avenue, east of Islington Avenue (north of the Boyd Field Centre entrance driveway), Humber River Watershed, City of Vaughan, Regional Municipality of York. Rob Ford Frank Dale THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT WHEREAS The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) is in receipt of a request from the City of Vaughan to convey certain lands for the reconstruction of Canada Company Avenue, north end and east side of Canada Company Avenue, east of Islington Avenue (north of the Boyd Field Centre entrance driveway), Humber River Watershed, City of Vaughan, Regional Municipality of York; WHEREAS it is in the best interest of the TRCA in furthering its objectives as set out in Section 20 of the Conservation Authorities Act to cooperate with the City of Vaughan in this instance; THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED THAT a parcel of TRCA-owned land containing 0.05 hectares (0.12 acres), more or less, be conveyed to the City of Vaughan for the reconstruction of Canada Company Avenue, said land being Part of Lot 19, Concession 7, City of Vaughan, designated as Part 1 on a draft Plan of Survey prepared by Rady-Pentek & Edward Surveying Ltd., Ontario Land Surveyors, under their Job No , dated March 16, 2004; THAT consideration be the nominal sum of $2.00, plus all legal, survey, and other costs; THAT the City of Vaughan is to fully indemnify and absolve the TRCA from any and all claims from injuries, damages, or costs of any nature resulting in any way, either directly or indirectly, from this sale or the carrying out of construction; THAT an archaeological investigation be completed, with any mitigative measures being carried out to the satisfaction of TRCA staff, at the expense of the City of Vaughan; THAT all TRCA lands disturbed by the proposed works be revegetated / stabilized following construction and, where deemed appropriate by TRCA staff, a landscape plan be prepared for TRCA staff review and approval in accordance with existing TRCA landscaping guidelines; THAT in addition, the developer, Lakeview Homes Inc., the primary beneficiary of the servicing, agrees and undertakes, at its expense, to extend the municipal watermain to TRCA property and construct a valve chamber no later than November 11, 2005, for future connection to the Boyd Field Centre offices; 383

12 THAT said sale be subject to approval of the Minister of Natural Resources in accordance with Section 21(2) of the Conservation Authorities Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter C.27, as amended; AND FURTHER THAT the appropriate TRCA officials be authorized and directed to take whatever action may be required to give effect hereto, including the obtaining of necessary approvals and the execution of any documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND The City of Vaughan has formally requested the conveyance of a small fragment of TRCA-owned land needed to create a cul-de-sac at the north end of Canada Company Avenue as part of the reconstruction of this roadway. As part of the on-going development of the Kortright Ravines subdivision (19T-99V11) located between Canada Company Avenue and Islington Avenue, five (5) lots of these lands front onto Canada Company Avenue. The Kortright Ravines Subdivision Agreement includes an undeveloped block of land owned by Lakeview Homes Inc. and a 0.3 metre road reserve conveyed to the City of Vaughan that front onto Canada Company Avenue. Block 50 on Registered Plan 65M-3532, which contains the five residential lots, is restricted from development pending a resolution of municipal servicing which includes the reconstruction of Canada Company Avenue. Presently, Canada Company Avenue is a gravel road serving local traffic to three driveway entrances, including the Boyd Field Centre, with access onto Islington Avenue. The rural character of the road will be maintained and Lakeview Homes Inc. has provided a lump sum payment to the City of Vaughan for annual maintenance for a duration of 20 years after assumption of the road. Canada Company Avenue will be maintained with a "Double Stone Chip" surface treatment; all local soft spots will be excavated, refilled, and compacted as part of the road reconstruction. The increase in local traffic will require a turning circle (i.e. cul-de-sac) at the north end of Canada Company Avenue for garbage collection, snow ploughing, and emergency vehicle turn-around. The five residential lots within Block 50 will be serviced by the municipal watermain and sanitary sewer already in place within the developed portion of the Kortright Ravines subdivision. Lakeview Homes Inc. is the primary beneficiary of the road improvements and, as a result, TRCA staff has negotiated and entered into an agreement for Lakeview Homes Inc. to extend, entirely at its expense, the municipal watermain and valve chamber onto TRCA lands immediately adjacent to Canada Company Avenue which will be eventually connected to the Boyd Field Centre building. The Council of the City of Vaughan approved a staff recommendation to provide municipal services to Block 50 and to reconstruct Canada Company Avenue as outlined above at a meeting of the Committee of the Whole on September 22, In addition to the fee simple conveyance, temporary working easements are also likely required to complete the proposed works. TRCA staff will be discussing this matter with the City of Vaughan and Lakeview Homes Inc.

13 Plantings: All lands disturbed by construction will be stabilized and, where deemed appropriate by TRCA staff, revegetated with native woody and herbaceous plant material in accordance with existing TRCA landscaping guidelines. The subject lands were acquired from Thomson Groceries Ltd. on January 26, 1961 under the Boyd Conservation Area Project. A plan illustrating the fee simple conveyance location is attached. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS The City of Vaughan and Lakeview Homes Inc. has agreed to assume all legal, survey, and other costs involved in completing this transaction.

16 (d) (e) Toronto Golf Club agrees and undertakes, at its expense, to improve fish passage through the existing dam presently used to impound water for irrigation of the golf course within the Etobicoke Creek or remove the dam in its entirety within two (2) years of implementing the new water taking system from Lake Ontario; any additional conditions as deemed appropriate by the TRCA solicitor; THAT the granting of this easement is subject to receipt of written approval from the City of Toronto Economic Development, Culture & Tourism Department who manage these lands on behalf of the TRCA; THAT an archaeological investigation be completed, with any mitigative measures being carried out to the satisfaction of TRCA staff, at the expense of the Toronto Golf Club; THAT all TRCA lands disturbed by the proposed works be revegetated / stabilized following construction and, where deemed appropriate by TRCA staff, a landscape plan be prepared for TRCA staff review and approval in accordance with existing TRCA landscaping guidelines; THAT a permit pursuant to Ontario Regulation 158 be obtained prior to commencement of construction; THAT said easement be subject to approval of the Minister of Natural resources in accordance with Section 21(2) of the Conservation Authorities Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter C.27, as amended; AND FURTHER THAT the appropriate TRCA officials be authorized and directed to take whatever action may be required to give effect hereto, including the obtaining of necessary approvals and the execution of any documents. CARRIED BACKGROUND The Toronto Golf Club is located on the east side of the Etobicoke Creek, north of Lakeshore Boulevard in the City of Mississauga. The golf club currently draws water from an on line pond located on the Etobicoke Creek just north of the CNR tracks, per their existing Permit-To-Take-Water from the Ministry of the Environment. The Club needs an alternate water supply for quantity and quality reasons. The TRCA has been encouraging golf clubs to reduce their dependency on surface water takings from watercourses. These takings have major impact on watercourses, particularly during low flow periods. As in this case, to create a large enough supply of water for irrigation on smaller creeks, a dam is required. These dams create barriers to fish passage. The Toronto Golf Club initiated discussions with TRCA technical staff to complete and extend an existing irrigation water main to Lake Ontario for the purpose of utilizing water from the lake for irrigation purposes. 388

17 An existing water main and easement in favour of Toronto Golf Club runs on the east side of Etobicoke Creek, south from the CNR tracks, approximately 200 meters through Enfield Park, (City of Toronto property), under Lakeshore Boulevard and then 450 meters through Marie Curtis Park to a point in the Etobicoke Creek 180 meters from Lake Ontario, (TRCA property), as shown on the attached sketch. The section of water main under the CNR railway and the Etobicoke Creek to the golf course was never completed and the Toronto Golf Club has been irrigating from the on line pond on Etobicoke Creek. The Toronto Golf Club is proposing to abandon a small section of water main and intake to the Etobicoke Creek and extend the main/intake and easement to Lake Ontario. In addition they are planning to complete the missing link in the water main under the CNR and Etobicoke Creek to the golf course which impacts a small parcel of TRCA property in Enfield Park north of the CNR. In order to address TRCA's fish passage concerns the Toronto Golf Club have agreed and undertaken, at its expense, to improve fish passage through the existing dam presently used to impound water for irrigation of the golf course within the Etobicoke Creek or remove the dam entirely. Whichever proposal is undertaken, it will be subject to TRCA approval, and done within two (2) years of implementing the new water taking system from Lake Ontario. The Toronto Golf Club has formally requested a permanent easement over certain TRCA lands through Enfield Park and Marie Curtis Park for the construction of a 150 mm diameter irrigation water main. Staff feel that a net environmental gain will be achieved by eliminating the water taking from the Etobicoke Creek together with the proposed fish barrier improvements and as a result are recommending the permanent easements. In addition to the permanent easement, a temporary working easement may be required for construction access; staff is presently working with the project consultant to determine if a temporary easement is required. The subject property in Marie Curis Park was acquired from The Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto on July 29, 1974 and February 21, 1990 and Her Majesty the Queen represented by the Ministry of Natural Resources on November 14, 1991 under the Waterfront Acquisition Project - Etobicoke Sector. The subject property in Enfield Park north of the CNR was acquired from the Toronto Golf Club on July 25, 1979 under the Etobicoke Creek Flood Plain Lands Acquisition Project, and reserved the rights in the transfer to construct a water main. The entire length of the easement is located within the Regional Storm flood plain and Fill Regulated Area of the Etobicoke Creek. Development Services Section staff is reviewing a permit application submitted under Ontario Regulation 158 for all proposed works situated within the regulatory flood plain and regulated area. A report for the permit application submission is also included in this agenda. Plantings: Through the permit application review process, a landscape plan will be prepared for TRCA staff review and approval in accordance with existing TRCA landscaping guidelines. A plan illustrating the permanent easement location is attached. 389

18 FINANCIAL DETAILS The Toronto Golf Club will pay $10,000 as compensation for granting of this permanent easement and will assume all reasonable costs (i.e. legal, survey, landscaping, etc.) involved in completing this transaction. The Toronto Golf Club is also responsible for all costs associated with the fish passage or dam removal.

The proposed stormwater pond will service the adjacent subdivision, consisting of 170 residential lots. The proposed road into the valley is required to access and service the proposed stormwater pond. The subject property is 433

62 approximately 21.4 ha (52.9 acres) in size, while the stormwater pond will be located on a parcel approximately 1.6 ha (4.0 acres) in size. The subject property is located on the east side of Highway 27, south of Kirby Road. The proposed stormwater pond is located on the valley floor, but outside of the Regional Storm Flood Plain of the Humber River. The pond is adjacent to an Environmentally Significant Area # East Humber River. There are also wetlands located on the north and south side of the proposed pond. The proposed location of the pond was accepted by TRCA staff after an extensive review of technical documents including the Wycliffe-Humberplex Development Master Environmental Servicing Plan and hydrogeological reports. After a lengthy negotiation process, TRCA technical staff was satisfied with the location of the proposed SWM pond and was confident that geotechnical, hydrogeological, ecological and engineering issues were satisfactorily addressed. As such, conditions of draft approval were issued by Authority staff on June 3, The proposed SWM pond is consistent with the approved MESP for the Wycliffe-Humberplex Development. This permit application for servicing fulfills a condition of draft approved issued by TRCA staff. Authority staff received and reviewed a Stormwater Management Plan - Design Brief, dated January received January 26, 2004 and has provided comments. The agent, URS Canada Inc., on behalf of the applicant has provided revisions and resubmissions in order to address TRCA staff comments. At this time, minor issues relating to stormwater management and landscape plans remain and TRCA technical staff is confident that these issues can be resolved. The permit will not be released until such time as these issues are resolved. Control of Flooding: The proposed works are located outside of the Regional Storm Flood Plain of the Humber River and therefore will not impact the storage or conveyance of flood waters. Pollution: A sediment and erosion control plan, reviewed and approved by staff, will be implemented for the proposed works. Silt fencing will be maintained for the duration of construction to prevent sediment from entering the wetlands and watercourse. Conservation of Land: A construction/maintenance access road will be constructed on the valley slope to service the proposed stormwater pond. Technical staff has reviewed plans for the associated access road is generally satisfied that there are no geotechnical/slope stability issues. The access road was accepted as part of the approved Wycliffe-Humberplex MESP. The residential lots for the adjacent subdivision are set back 10 metres from the staked top of bank. All valleylands including the 10 metre development setback will be recognized in an open space designation which will restrict future development within these lands. The valleylands are to be conveyed to the Authority while the City of Vaughan will assume maintenance of the SWM pond once completed. Planning ecology staff has also reviewed plans and associated reports and is satisfied that the pond will not adversely impact the function of the nearby wetlands. 434

63 There are no in-water works associated with the proposal, however, a Letter of Advice will be issued for the outlet from the stormwater pond to the wetland to the south. No other significant natural resource features will be impacted by the proposed development. Plantings As a condition of draft approval for the associated subdivision, a comprehensive open space masterplan is to be submitted to City of Vaughan and TRCA staff. The master plan is to include restoration plantings within the currently un-vegetated portions of the valley lands and setback areas. The masterplan will be required prior to the issuance of the above permit. Furthermore, restoration plantings for the proposed pond will be submitted and reviewed to TRCA staff's satisfaction. Policy Guidelines: This proposal complies with Section Infrastructure and Servicing, of the Authority's Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

67 TOWNSHIP OF KING, TOWN OF RICHMOND HILL REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF YORK To alter a waterway, construct in a flood plain, place fill within a regulated area on Lot 68, Concession 1 WYS, Lot 8, Concession 2, (Bathurst Street, from King Side Road northward to north of Bloomington Side Road), in the Township of King, Town of Richmond Hill, Humber River Watershed as located on the property owned by Regional Municipality of York. The purpose is to excavate and place fill (to remove existing twin Corrugated Steel Pipe Arch (CSPA) culverts [at Sta ] {39m length x 3.7m width x 2.2m height} and replace with twin box culverts {37m length x 3m width x 2.7m height} and {37m length x 3m width x 2.4m height}; to place fill behind 4 new retaining walls in 4 quadrants of box culverts; to install 375 and 400mm storm sewers; 2 storm outfall channels; oil grit separator all on east; to widen road from 2 lanes to 4 lanes; ) in a Fill Regulated Area; construct structures ( twin box culverts, 4 retaining walls, storm sewers and 2 storm sewer outlets, oil grit separator on east, asphalt paving) within a Regional Storm Floodplain; to alter a watercourse ( East Humber River ) during the warmwater timing window (July 1 to March 31) via a coffer dam method in order to work in the dry. The permit will be issued for the period of June 4, 2004 to June 3, Letter of Undertaking (to provide minor revisions to engineering drawings and restoration plans); dated June 2, 2004; received June 2, 2004; prepared by the Region of York. The application was reviewed by staff on the basis of the following information: Proposal: The proposal consists of the widening of Bathurst Street from King Road in the south to just north of Bloomington Side Road in the north at The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority/ Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority watershed divide. The widening will involve the removal of the existing 39m twin Corrugated Steep Pipe Arch (CSPA) culverts and replacement with twin 37m box culverts along the same alignment. Although the roadway will need to be widened to accommodate 2 more lanes, the length of the proposed box culverts will be only 2 metres less than the existing culverts. In anticipation of the widening, the ultimate grading platform was established in 1981 with culvert installation at that time. The northern box culvert will be embedded and will become the wet cell with water flowing through this culvert under low flow conditions. The southern cell will become the dry cell and will be available to terrestrial wildlife for migration and will serve as an overflow route during heavier, less frequent storms. At present the culverts are heavily sedimented and the steel multi-plates are cracked. The installation of the new culverts will provide an opportunity to remove the sediments and alleviate the cracked situation. 439

68 The location of the culvert replacements is within a Fill Regulated Area and a Regional Storm Floodplain of the Humber River. Another recently submitted permit file associated with a watermain Environmental Assessment is CFN 34000, the Newmarket Aurora 1200mm watermain. This watermain has a route from Teston and Keele, northwards on Keele, eastwards on King- Vaughan Road, and northwards on Bathurst to the watershed divide north of Bloomington. This watermain will be installed prior to the roadworks and a report on the watermain will be prepared for the July Executive Committee. The road project (CFN 30039) and the watermain (CFN 34000) were reviewed by TRCA staff during the Environmental Assessment process. Control of Flooding: The profile of the road will remain approximately the same and the opening of the proposed culverts will be slightly larger than the existing culverts, therefore the hydraulic capacity will remain approximately the same. The Region of York has provided a Letter of Undertaking to complete the minor modifications to the hydraulic model. The storm outfalls will not have any implications to flooding. Pollution: Standard erosion control measures (rock check dams, silt fence, pea gravel bag coffer dam) will be implemented to ensure that the construction-generated sediments do not enter the watercourse. The east side of the road will be serviced by curb and gutter and the west side will maintain a rural cross section (grassed swales). Water quality will be addressed with an oil and grit separator. Conservation of Land: There will be in stream works associated with this project. The watercourse will be diverted temporarily by a coffer dam method (pea gravel filled sand bags) to the existing north and subsequently south culverts in order to remove the existing culverts ½ at a time from the 4 quadrants while maintaining traffic flow. With erosion and sedimentation plans in effect, the potential for a harmful alteration, disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat will be mitigated and a Letter of Advice will be written by TRCA staff on behalf of the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO). The proposed works will impact no significant terrestrial resource features. This section of Bathurst Street from King Road in the south to Bloomington Side Road in the north is located on the Oak Ridges Moraine. On the west the area is designated as Settlement Area and on the east Natural Linkage Area. All watercourses on the Oak Ridges Moraine have been identified as hydrologically sensitive features. There is one watercourse in this project. Section 41 of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan indicates in Subsection 5 that transportation and infrastructure may be permitted to cross hydrologically sensitive features (i.e. watercourses) subject to the tests and best management practices described in section 41(5)(a to e). This project has been reviewed under the Environmental Assessment Act, Ontario Regulation 158 and under the Fisheries Act for the tests and best management practices. Plantings All disturbed areas will be restored with native/non-invasive species following construction. 440

69 Policy Guidelines: The proposal complies with Section 4.3 -Infrastructure and Servicing of the Authority's Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program. CFN: Report Prepared by: June Murphy, extension 5304 For information contact: June Murphy, extension 5304 Date: May 25, 2004 Application #: 327/03/KING TOWN OF AJAX STUART & CAROLYN CLAGUE To construct in a flood plain, place fill within a regulated area on Lot 38, Plan 372, (2954 Seabreeze Road), in the Town of Ajax, Carruthers Creek Watershed as located on the property owned by Stuart & Carolyn Clague. The purpose is to excavate within a Fill Regulated Area and construct in the floodplain of Carruthers Creek in order to facilitate the construction of an at-grade, rear yard swimming pool at 2954 Seabreeze Road, in the Town of Ajax. The permit will be issued for the period of June 4, 2004 to June 3, Swimming Pool Proposal, prepared by DCM Co. Landscape Designs+, dated February 27, 2004, date received March 12, Letter of Undertaking for Restoration Plan, prepared by owner, dated June 1, The application was reviewed by staff on the basis of the following information: Proposal: The purpose of this proposal is to excavate within a Fill Regulated Area and construct in the Regional Storm Floodplain of Carruthers Creek in order to facilitate the construction of an at-grade, rear yard swimming pool at 2954 Seabreeze Road, in the Town of Ajax. An open drainage channel, which connects to the main Carruthers Creek, traverses the rear yard of the property and has a relatively wide, shallow floodplain. A previous Ontario Regulation 158 permit (C-98196) was issued in 1998 for the construction of a single family dwelling on the subject property. While the property was partially located within the Regional Storm Floodplain of Carruthers Creek in 1998, the TRCA recognized that the existing lot of record was under a backwater effect from the main Carruthers Creek and that poor drainage resulting from improper piping of the existing drainage channel resulted in the property being located within the floodplain. Subsequently, the TRCA determined that a cut and fill balance could be undertaken across the site in order to create a development envelope for the house without impacting neighbouring properties. 441

70 The current proposal involves the construction of an at-grade pool and the restoration of the drainage channel through the planting of native, woody materials. TRCA staff has reviewed the current proposal and determined that the pool is consistent with TRCA policy and will not further aggravate the drainage problem. Through the restoration of the drainage channel, TRCA staff is satisfied that a net environmental gain will be achieved through the approval of this application. Control of Flooding: Though the proposed pool is located within the Regional Storm Floodplain of Carruthers Creek, the pool will be constructed at-grade, with no fill placement required. TRCA water management staff has reviewed the engineering submission for this proposal and is satisfied that there will be no impacts on the storage or conveyance of floodwaters as a result of the proposed development. Pollution: Sediment and erosion control measures will be erected and maintained between the construction area and the edge of the drainage channel in order to prevent any construction-generated sediment from entering the drainage channel and impacting downstream fisheries resources. Conservation of Land: There are no geotechnical or fisheries concerns related to this proposal as the pool is located on tableland approximately 3 m from the edge of the drainage feature. There are no significant natural heritage features that will be negatively impacted as a result of the proposed development. That said, TRCA staff has sought to achieve a net environmental benefit from the proposed works and as such, has reviewed and approved a restoration plan for the channel. The restoration plan includes the planting of woody (tree and shrub) native, non-invasive plant species along the length of the drainage feature, resulting in the re-creation of natural habitat associated with the open channel. The TRCA is satisfied that an overall net environmental gain will be achieved through the approval of this proposal. Plantings All disturbed areas will be restored following construction. An extensive planting plan has been submitted for the restoration of the drainage channel which involves the planting of acceptable densities of native, non-invasive tree and shrub plant materials. Policy Guidelines: This proposal is consistent with Section E Property Improvements and Ancillary Structures of the Authority's Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

This section of trail is proposed south of Kingston Road, north of Jacwin Crescent, within the City of Pickering, and will be an extension of the existing Pickering Village Greenbelt Trail system. The trail extension is proposed to consist of a combination of limestone fines and asphalt sections with some minor grading and low retaining walls. The trail will be located within the Regional Storm Floodplain of Miller Creek and is merely the formalization of an existing beaten path currently used by pedestrians. Minor tree removals will be required, but a comprehensive restoration plan has been submitted and approved by TRCA ecology staff. The trail will link to existing bridge crossings over the watercourse, which have been approved as part of a previous TRCA Ontario Regulation 158 permit. Control of Flooding: Though the proposed trail is located within the Regional Storm Floodplain of Miller Creek, the disturbances to the floodplain will be minimized such that there are no impacts on the conveyance or storage of floodwaters. Pollution: Sediment and erosion control measures will be erected and maintained between the construction area and the watercourse in order to prevent any construction-generated sediment from entering the watercourse. 443

72 Conservation of Land: There are no geotechnical or fisheries concerns related to this proposal. There are some tree removals required to accommodate the trail extension, but a comprehensive restoration plan, including woody and herbaceous native, non-invasive species plantings, has been submitted and approved by TRCA ecology staff. All disturbed areas will be stabilized following construction. Plantings The submitted restoration plan indicates that trees, shrubs and herbaceous plant materials are proposed along the trail extension. TRCA ecology staff is satisfied that the proposed planting plan more than offsets the vegetation removals required to accommodate the trail extension and will result in a net environmental benefit within this reach of Duffins Creek. Policy Guidelines: This proposal is consistent with Section New Resource-based Uses of the Authority's Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

The purpose is to excavate and place fill (for 1800mm Concrete Pressure Pipe (CPP) feedermain installation ) in a Fill Regulated Area; construct a structure ( Chamber Y8 at Sta ) within a Regional Storm Floodplain; temporarily alter a watercourse (Humber River) during the coldwater timing window (July 1 to September 15) through a flume method in order to work in the dry for the open cut crossing. 455

84 The permit will be issued for the period of June 4, 2004 to June 3, 2006 in accordance with the following documents and plans which form part of this permit: Letter of Undertaking (to provide minor revisions to engineering drawings and restoration plans); dated February 19, 2004; received February 20, 2004; prepared by the Region of York. The application was reviewed by staff on the basis of the following information: Proposal: This proposal consists of the installation of an 1800mm diameter feedermain to the north of Rutherford Road and east of Highway 27. The crossing of the watercourse will be conducted via open cut with a flume method in order to work in the dry. The watercourse does have an upstream drainage area greater than 125 hectares, therefore a Regional Storm Floodplain is associated with the Humber River. The site is located with a Fill Regulated Area. The York Peel Feedermain project was reviewed by TRCA staff during the Environmental Assessment process. The proposed York Peel Feedermain, an 1800mm watermain, will supply water from the future Airport Reservoir and Pumping Station (on Airport Road, south of Castlemore Road) in Peel Region to the Maple Reservoir (near Keele Street and Teston Road) in York Region. This permit is one of a total of 19 permits associated with the Feedermain Installation and Road Reconstruction along the Airport Road, Castlemore Road, Rutherford Road, Weston Road and Teston Road route. Fifteen reports have been taken through the Executive Committee to date for the York-Peel Feedermain. There are 4 culvert extension/replacement files remaining. Three will require a report to the Executive Committee and the fourth will require a revision. Control of Flooding: The proposed elevation over the feedermain within the Regional Storm Floodplain will match the existing elevation therefore; there will be no impact on the storage or conveyance of floodwaters. Pollution: Standard erosion control measures (silt fence, coffer dam, flume, pump, filter bag) will be implemented to ensure that the construction-generated sediments do not enter the watercourse during the open cut crossing. Trench plugs have been identified on the profile and plan view to ensure that the proposed feedermain does not act as a conduit for contaminants to the watercourse. The distance from the invert of the creek to the obvert of the pipe has been reviewed by staff and is satisfactory. 456

85 Conservation of Land: There will be in stream works associated with this project. The watercourse will be crossed via an open cut method. All works will be conducted in the dry with a flume method. With erosion and sedimentation plans in effect, the potential for a harmful alteration, disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat will be mitigated and a Letter of Advice will be written by TRCA staff on behalf of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO). The Environmentally Significant Area is on the south side of Rutherford Road, therefore, the proposed works will impact no significant terrestrial resource features. Plantings All disturbed areas will be restored with native/non-invasive species following construction. Policy Guidelines: The proposal complies with Section 4.3-Infrastructure and Servicing of the Authority s Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

88 REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF YORK To construct in a flood plain, place fill within a regulated area on Lot 30, Concession 7, (McCowan Road - Major MacKenzie Drive northwards to Stouffville Road), in the Town of Markham, Rouge River Watershed as located on the property owned by Regional Municipality of York. The purpose is to excavate and place fill (at approx. Sta to install a 1050mm diameter watermain ) in a Fill Regulated Area; to construct structures ( Valve Chamber No. 8 at approx. Sta and No. 6 at Sta ) within a Regional Storm Floodplain. Flows will be maintained within the existing culverts with the 3 open cut crossings (Sta , 3+960,1+275) and the 2 tunnel crossings (4+060, 3+280). The permit will be issued for the period of June 4, 2004 to June 3, 2006 in accordance with the following documents and plans which form part of this permit: Letter of Undertaking (to provide minor revisions to engineering plans and restoration plans); dated June 2, 2004; received June 2, 2004; prepared by Region of York. The application was reviewed by staff on the basis of the following information: Proposal: The proposal consists of the installation of a 1050 mm diameter watermain along the west side of McCowan Road from Major Mackenzie Road in the south to Stouffville Road in the north. This application deals only with the watermain. A reservoir will be constructed on the south-east quadrant of McCowan and Stouffville Roads which does not require a permit from the TRCA. There are 5 watercourses along this section of McCowan Road. In all instances the watermain will be installed underneath the existing culverts and flows during installation of the watermain will be maintained by the existing culverts. Four of the five culverts are corrugated steel pipes and one at the Little Rouge is an open boxed culvert. The two largest crossings with Regional Storm Floodplains, at the Little Rouge, (Sta ) and a tributary south (3+280), will be conducted via a tunnel method. The other three crossings (Sta , 3+960, and 1+275) with less than 125 hectares of drainage upstream will be crossed via an open cut method. Only the Little Rouge crossing and Crossing are located within the Fill Regulated Area. The project was reviewed by TRCA staff during the Environmental Assessment process. Control of Flooding: Three of the crossings (most northerly and southerly and in the middle) are not located within the Regional Storm Floodplain, therefore; there will not be any impacts to flooding. For the other two crossings, fill placement will be minimized within the Regional Storm Floodplain with this infrastructure project and staff does not anticipate concerns with loss of storage or conveyance. 460

89 Pollution: Standard erosion control measures ( silt fence) will be implemented to ensure that the construction-generated sediments do not enter the watercourse. Borehole pits for tunnelling will be encircled with sediment fencing. The watercourse will be protected with sediment fencing during the open cut crossings. Trench plugs have been shown on the profile at either side of the watercourses to ensure that the watermain does not act as a conduit for contaminants to the watercourse. Conservation of Land: As there will be no in stream work associated with the project there will be no concerns related to fish habitat loss. With all five watercourses, the watermain will be installed underneath the existing culverts. With erosion and sedimentation plans in effect, the potential for a harmful alteration, disruption or destruction (HADD) of fish habitat will be mitigated and a Letter of Advice will be written by TRCA staff on behalf of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) to ensure that works are conducted during the coldwater window (July 1 to September 15). The proposed works will impact no significant terrestrial resource features. The provincially significant wetland in the south end will be protected with a sediment fence during construction. Plantings All disturbed areas will be restored with native/non-invasive species following construction. Policy Guidelines: The proposal complies with Section 4.3- Infrastructure and Servicing, of the Authority's Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

The purpose is to The purpose is to place fill (road, stormwater management pond) in a Fill Regulated Area; construct a structure (road, conspan and culvert) within a Regional Storm Floodplain; alter a watercourse (installation of conspan and culvert) during the cool water timing window (June 15-March 31). The permit will be issued for the period of June 4, 2004 to June 3, 2006 in accordance with the following documents and plans which form part of this permit: 461

90 Letter of Undertaking to provide details related to liner requirements for the pond bottom; confirmation of the hydraulic capacity of the crossing structure and bypass culvert based on review of the calculations and modelling results; details crossing designs including alignment, skew and stone protection for the crossing structure; confirmation of the method of construction of the watermain via either tunneling or open cut, depending on the recommendations of the required geotechnical report, and associated construction details; confirmation of the site restoration details; confirmation that the EA for the stormwater management pond; confirmation of hydrogeology information regarding groundwater interference associated with the stormwater management pond; and details regarding dewatering requirements for bore pit, tunnels and any other excavations dated June 2, 2004; received June 2, 2004; prepared by the Town of Markham. The application was reviewed by staff on the basis of the following information: Proposal: The proposal consists of the extension of Rodick Road across he Rouge River, installation of storm sewers, installation of a watermain and a retrofit to an existing storm water management pond. Rodick Road will be extended by 800 metres from Miller Avenue to York Tech Drive. A four lane divided roadway is proposed currently which is planned to be expanded to 6 lanes in the future. A 17 metre (span) by 4.8 metre (rise) conspan and a 8 metre (span) by 4.8 metre (rise) elliptical culvert is proposed to be installed at the crossing of the Beaver Creek (Rouge River). A new section of a 400 mm watermain will be installed. The preferred method of construction is to tunnel under the watercourse. Pending review of the geotechnical report, staff are concerned that this may not be possible and that an open cut crossing may be required. The stormwater flows from Miller Avenue to the Highway 407 overpass will be conveyed within a new closed storm sewer system. Two stormceptors (STC-2000 and STC-750 will provide enhanced level of treatment to the storm runoff from the roadway. The stormwater flows from the Highway 407 overpass to York Tech Drive will be conveyed within a new closed storm sewer system and outlet to an existing 1200 mm diameter storm sewer from the existing section of Rodick Road section. A water quality retrofit of the existing flood control facility will be constructed with this project. The proposed retrofit will provide upstream industrial/commercial areas and the proposed four land extension north of Highway 407 with a Level 1 quality control and extended detention. The project was reviewed by TRCA staff during the Environmental Assessment process and conforms to our requirements. Control of Flooding: A minor increase in flooding is expected under the Regional Storm Flood event as a result of the proposed culvert structures and the presence of the SWM quality pond. Flood elevations are estimated to increase by 0.01 metres at and upstream of York Tech Drive. This will be contained on property owned by the Town of Markham. 462

91 Pollution: Standard erosion control measures (rock check dams, silt fence, filter bags, biodegradable erosion control mats) will be implemented to ensure that the construction-generated sediments do not enter the watercourse. Conservation of Land: All filled and disturbed areas will be revegetated / stabilized following construction. Plantings All disturbed areas will be restored with native/non-invasive species following construction. Policy Guidelines: The proposal complies with Section 4.3-Infrastructure and Servicing of the Authority s Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program.

92 RES.#B115/04 - Moved by: Seconded by: REQUEST FOR DISPOSAL OF TRCA-OWNED LAND Adjacent to 1 Jennifer Court, CFN The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) is in receipt of a request from the City of Toronto Encroachment Review Committee to explore the possibility of the sale of a small fragment of land adjacent to 1 Jennifer Court, City of Toronto (North York Community Council Area), Humber River Watershed Maria Augimeri Rob Ford THAT the potential disposal of a small fragment of land at 1 Jennifer Court, City of Toronto (North York Community Council Area) be referred to staff for review and discussion in accordance with established Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) policies; AND FURTHER THAT a report be brought forward to the Executive Committee at a future date recommending further action. CARRIED BACKGROUND This request is being brought to the attention of the Executive Committee in accordance with Resolution #26, adopted by the Members of the TRCA at the meeting held on February 22, The subject encroachment consists of a pie-shaped piece of swimming pool deck area and a small portion of the swimming pool at the rear of 1 Jennifer Court, measuring approximately 55 square metres (492 square feet). The present owners, Armando and Rafella Cosentino, have had a License of Occupation for this encroachment since The City of Toronto Encroachment Review Committee (ERC) considered a request from the owner's son (Tony Consentino) for his parents to purchase the lands subject to the encroachment. On December 1, 2003, the ERC recommended approval of this request, as the sale would be of mutual benefit to the City and the property owners in resolving a long term, minor encroachment as well as eliminating the related on-going administration of the License of Occupation, without significantly affecting public access and enjoyment of parkland. The North York Community Council recommended to City of Toronto Council the resolution of this encroachment on the basis as set out above at its meeting of January 29, 2004, and the Council of the City of Toronto, at its meeting held on March 1, 2, and 3, 2004, adopted, without amendment, the same recommendation from the ERC. The area of encroachment is located entirely on tableland and is situated outside the Fill Regulated Area of the Black Creek. However, Development Services staff will be circulated the land sale proposal for review and comment in relation to our Valley and Stream Corridor Management Program policies. 464
