1.2 Application A2009-0003 was filed to permit an existing accessory building (gazebo) by
increasing the maximum permitted total lot coverage for all accessory buildings and
structures, from 10% to 11 %.
The subject property is located on the southeast corner of Second Street and Lambs
Lane, with a lot size of 510 m2. Currently there exists a single detached dwelling and
three accessory buildings; a detached garage, a garden shed and a gazebo. The
gazebo is built with a steel frame having a detachable cover that can be stored in the
winter months.
The Zoning By-law permits a total lot coverage for accessory buildings and structures of
10% of the lot area, up to a maximum 60 m2 in floor area. The total floor area of all three
existing structures is 55.1 m2 representing a total lot coverage of 11 %.
Staff recommended approval of the application as the existing accessory structures met
all other requirements of the Zoning By-law, and there would appear to be no
detrimental impact on surrounding properties with regards to drainage or maintenance
of structures.
Committee concurred with Staff's recommendations and approved the application
subject to the condition that no single accessory building or structure exceeds 51 m2 in
total floor area.
2.0 COMMENTS
2.1 Staff have reviewed the Committee's decision and are satisfied that application
A2009-0003 is in conformity with both Official Plan policies, consistent with the intent
of the Zoning By-law, is minor in nature and desirable.
