CITY POLICY Cost-Benefit Analysis of Possible Regional Airport 2.20 Before the development of a regional airport in Pickering, Ctiy Council shall request the proponent of any such airport to submit, to the City’s satisfaction, an analysis of the environmental, social and economic costs and benefits to the City of developing such an airport. PICKERING OFFICIAL PLAN EDITION 6: Chapter Two -- Planning Framework 34
Pickering’s Rural System Like urban systems, rural systems involve people doing a variety of things. Yet, transactions between and amongst people of the rural area, differ somewhat from those in the urban area. They usually directly or indirectly require, stem from, or are grounded in “land” as a viable, productive and lasting resource. Farming, forestry, golfing, bird watching, aggregate extraction, hiking and many other rural activities all require or use land as a resource. To exist, they all directly depend upon land, or upon the natural systems that support and flow from the land. Protecting land, as a finite resource, is therefore of vital importance to ensuring a healthy rural system. Rural Pickering comprises approximately, 15,200 hectares, which is roughly two-thirds of the City’s total land area. As depicted on Map 10: Pickering’s Rural System, found at the end of this Chapter, the City’s rural system includes lands situated south of the Township of Uxbridge, and north of the C.P. (Belleville) rail line, excluding Seaton and the Potential Airport Site. A vision statement for rural Pickering, developed in 1994 by residents of the City, forms an excellent starting point for the formulation of rural policy. In part, this vision statement describes rural Pickering as: “...a healthy countryside working in tandem with healthy communities ... an ecosystem of farms, forests and streams, aquifers and wetlands: lands which support viable agricultural production, which maintain and enhance wildlife habitat and will provide recreational opportunities for the people of Pickering” “... a vibrant community: one which supports farms and preserves the history and heritage of existing hamlets, while accommodating the diverse needs of a growing population and making a significant economic contribution to the region" PICKERING OFFICIAL PLAN EDITION 6: Chapter Two -- Planning Framework 35
