Description
The applicant is requesting a minor variance from Zoning By-law 150-85 to permit a reduced interior side yard setback to 5.2 m (17.0 ft.) whereas 7.5 m (24.6 ft.) is required under s.4.1.274. The site specific provision permits the zoning regulations to be applied to the whole site and not the individual units. Therefore, an interior side yard variance as opposed to a rear yard variance is required to accommodate the proposed design of one townhouse unit. The subject property is currently undergoing site plan review (file SP23/17) and has been subject to a previous minor variance (file A19/17) to recognize the other townhouse blocks in the development. The southern portion of subject lands is located in GRCA regulated areas; however, this minor variance does not fall within the regulated limits.
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.
