During the review of plans submitted for a building permit, it became apparent that portions of the building, Parts 1 and 2, Plan 40R-19050, were encroaching onto the road allowance on King Street and Division Street (Attachment No.1). Permits were issued, dated July 8, 1998, on the condition that the applicant apply for and obtain an encroachment agreement. The application to permit an encroachment was received on May 7, 1999. 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3.1 The existing encroachments are on both King Street (part 1) and Division Street (part 2) shown on Reference Plan 40R-19050 (Attachment No.1). The King Street encroachment (part 1) consists of the eves of the building overhanging the road allowance. The front of the building is on the property line. The extent of the encroachment is 1.33 feet. On Division Street, the eves overhang on the road allowance for the entire length of the building (part 2). In addition, the actual building encroaches onto most of the Division 07 REPORT NO.: WD-27-99 PAGE 3 Street road allowance abutting the building. The encroachment (part 2) from King Street is 1.33 feet and at the southerly end of the building the encroachment is 2.70 feet. 4.0 CONCLUSION 4.1 The subject encroachments have existed for a very long time. The applicant has agreed to the conditions of the Encroachment Agreement. Therefore, it is recommended that Council pass the by-law to permit the encroachment, provided the applicant pays all costs and satisfies all conditions of the Encroachment Agreement.
