Description
The applicant is requesting a minor variance from Zoning By-law 150-85 in order to permit an extension to a legal non-conforming semi-detached dwelling in an R4 single detached residential zone. The proposed one storey addition is 27.32 m² (294 ft²) and meets all other site development provisions for the R4 zoning. The applicant is also requesting that 2.91 m (9.5 ft.) of the required parking stall be located in front of the established building line whereas the by-law requires the parking stall to be located completely behind the established building line. This request will facilitate the creation of an entry courtyard where the current parking stall is located. The subject property received a minor variance (file A09/04) for a previous addition to the semi-detached dwelling.
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.
