ContextWhy are we updating the Secondary Plan?
Bowmanville West
• Clarington recently updated its Official Plan
• The Official Plan identifies the need to update a number of secondary plans across the Municipality

ContextWhat is a Secondary Plan?
• A Secondary Plan provides more detailed plans and policies beyond the Municipality’s Official Plan for a specific area
• They include plans/policies that are adopted into the Official Plan and have status under the Planning Act
1. Vision, Goals/Objectives
2. Land Use
3. Transportation
3. Urban Design
5. Implementation Tools

ContextHistory and Policy Context
• The Bowmanville West Urban Centre Secondary Plan was approved in 1993 and subsequently updated in 2002
• The original Plan was prepared to capitalize on opportunities for shopping and commercial development
• The Plan always envisioned that at some point in the future, there would be potential for intensification and mixed-use development
• The current Plan needs to be updated to align with Provincial Policy and capitalize on the opportunity for a new GO station in Bowmanville West

ContextHistory and Policy Context
• In December, 2018 Metrolinx released a new approach to building new GO stations:o Partner with private developer/municipalities to build the stations;o Providing developers opportunities to build commercial and residential development at
stations as an incentive; and,o Improve new stations through transit-oriented development at GO stations.

• For Bowmanville West, this means there may be potential to partner with developers to help build the new station in exchange for transit-oriented development rights

ContextWhy is Planning Around Station Areas Important?
• A number of municipalities are leveraging transit investment to drive growth• The required investment in Clarington presents us with an opportunity to proactively
plan land use, transportation networks and infrastructure around the station areaBowmanville West

ContextWhy is Planning Around Station Areas Important?
• The Province’s Growth Plan directs municipalities to plan for intensification around GO stations
• Transit stations and the surrounding lands serve an important function by connecting our communities, providing equity of access and support affordable housing options
• Planning for density will ensure that the stations are well-used and justify more frequent service

1) Development of remaining vacant lands 3) Redevelopment of lower-density uses
4) Redevelopment of high value lands
