Description
The applicant is requesting a minor variance from Zoning By-law 150-85 to permit: 1. A minimum exterior side yard setback of 4.73 m (15.5 ft) for a below grade staircase, whereas the bylaw requires a 6 m (19.69 ft) setback for corner lots. The minor variance will help facilitate the construction of a secondary dwelling unit entrance on the exterior side yard of the home. The zoning by-law requires a 6.5 m (21.33 ft) setback for exterior side yards, but allows for a 0.5 m (1.64 ft) projection for below grade stairs.
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.
