DECISIONS OF COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT FOR MAY S, 200S Approve with A2008-0014 conditions A roved with conditions Approve with A2008-0017 conditions A roved with conditions Approve with A2008-0018 conditions A roved with conditions 1.2 Application 2008-0014 was originally considered at the May 8, 2008 Committee of Adjustment meeting, however the application was deemed incomplete and was TABLED to allow for the applicant to submit the required information regarding the proposed accessibility ramp. The revised application is to permit the construction of an accessibility ramp within the easterly interior side yard, by reducing the minimum required interior side yard setback from 1.2 metres to 1.07 metres to the ramp and 0.77 metres to the landing, and increasing the total lot coverage from 40% to 46% of the lot. Staff recommended approval of this application subject to conditions, as the reduced interior side yard setbacks will not adversely affect the maintenance or drainage on the property, and there will remain sufficient private amenity space in the rear yard. The Committee concurred with staff recommendations and imposed the following condition: . That no existing drainage patterns are altered or adversely affected as a result of construction. 1.3 Application A2008-0017 was filed to permit the construction of an addition to a single detached dwelling by increasing the maximum permitted lot coverage from 40% to 43%. The existing buildings on the property include the primary dwelling with an attached garage, a garden shed and a covered patio. The applicant proposes to build a second detached garage, remove the shed and enclose a pool area. After the removal of the shed, and the construction of the second garage, the enclosed pool area will result in an increase in the maximum permitted lot coverage. REPORT NO.: PSD-068-08 PAGE 3 Staff recommended approval of the application subject to conditions, as the increase in total lot coverage from 40% to 43% is considered minor in nature, the proposed addition will continue to comply with all other requirements of the Zoning By-law and the application conforms with the intent of the Zoning By-law. It was also staff's opinion that the subject property is located in an eclectic neighbourhood, having a variety of different sizes and styles of accessory buildings and dwellings, and the proposed addition would maintain the existing character of the neighbourhood. The Committee concurred with staff recommendations and imposed the following conditions: . That the existing garden shed be removed from the property prior to the issuance of a building permit for the pool enclosure; and · That no existing drainage patterns be altered or adversely affected as a result of construction. 1.4 Application A2008-0018 was filed to permit the construction of a single detached dwelling by reducing the minimum required westerly interior side yard setback from 1.2 metres to 1.1 metres. Due to an error made during the construction process, the foundation of the dwelling was poured 0.1 metres closer to property line than what is permitted by the Zoning By- law. A minor variance application was submitted to correct this construction error. Staff recommended approval of this application subject to conditions. The Committee concurred with Staff recommendations and imposed the following condition: . That the final lot grading conforms to the intent and integrity of the approved lot grading plan. 2.0 COMMENTS 2.1 Council's concurrence with the decisions of the Committee of Adjustment for applications A2008-0014, A2008-0017 and A2008-0018 is required in order to afford staff official status before the Ontario Municipal Board in the event of an appeal of any decision of the Committee of Adjustment.
