Description
The applicant is requesting to sever a residential property to create a new parcel with an approximate area of 369.2 m² (3,974 ft²) and 8.5 m (27.8 ft.) frontage along Union St N. The retained parcel is proposed to have an approximate area of 366 m² (3,939 ft²) and 8.5 m (27.8 ft.) frontage along Union St N. The severance will result in two buildable lots for residential. The applicant is proposing to construct a two-storey semi-detached home on the retained portion and severed parcel. The property is currently vacant. This application was originally approved in 2017 under file numbers B28/17, B29/17; however, the conditions were not fulfilled and the applications lapsed.
What this kind of application is
The Committee of Adjustment decides minor variances (small exceptions to the zoning by-law, such as a reduced setback or an extra unit) and consents (severing a lot, or adding an easement). Nearby owners are mailed a notice and can speak at the hearing.
