The following response was provided by the School Board - "The Durham District School Board planning staff assess the needs of the board on an annual basis. At this time the development needs within the Township of Scugog do not justify the construction of a school on the Union Avenue site. Board staff will continue to maintain ownership of the site. When a school can be justified for construction a Funding submission to the Ministry of Education will be submitted. DDSB staff will continue to work with Township of Scugog staff to examine development needs and future school site needs in the Town of Port Perry."
There will be improvements made to the existing stormwater management (SWM) pond behind Earl Cuddie/Greenway Blvd (known as the Perryview SWM Pond) in order to accommodate the draft approved subdivisions on the west side of Union Avenue, being the Ribcor and Chieftan subdivisions. These improvements will also accommodate this proposed subdivision by Delpark. The Township is currently working with the developers to finalize the detailed plans for the pond and works on the Perryview SWM Pond are anticipated to start later this year.

The townhouse units were relocated to balance the policies of the Scugog Official Plan that directs townhouses be dispersed and integrated throughout new developments, with the desire to keep the townhouse units more central and closer to the Robin Trail/King Street intersection. It was Delpark Home’s intention to not back townhouses onto existing lots that front onto Union Avenue and Perryview Drive. Delpark Homes will review the plan with respect to any proposed townhouses that back onto existing lots on Union Street.
The noise study reviewed the potential for traffic noise from King Street to impact the residents in the new houses near King Street (including the medium density townhouse units). Noise studies do not review the noise impacts from residential buildings on other residential uses as the buildings themselves do not generate excessive noise.

This switch makes more sense re emergency vehicles and avoiding present residential areas. asked about 4 years ago

A Virtual Public Meeting has now been scheduled for November 16, 2020 at 6:30 pm. Residents can watch the meeting livestreamed via the Township's official YouTube channel or participate electronically by contacting the Township.
The most recent subdivision plan proposed maintains the road connection to Mead Drive. The traffic work submitted by the applicant's traffic consultant notes that the proposed road network provides a sufficiently direct route for most of the units in the development to use the Robin Trail/King Street intersection. The Mead Drive connection provides an alternative route for new and existing residents to use, but, at the same time, the route is discontinuous enough that it is anticipated that this will not be used as a “cut-through” on a regular basis.
