FILE NO: A98/036 and A98-040 TO A98/042, INCLUSIVE Recommendations: It is respectfully recommended that the General Purpose and Administration Committee recommend to Council the following: 1. THAT Report PD-116-98 be received ; 2.

APPLICATION DETAILS 1.1 In accordance with Section 45 of the Planning Act R.S.O. 1990, all applications received by the Municipality for minor variance are scheduled to be heard within 30 days of being received by the Secretary Treasurer. The decisions of the Committee are detailed below. 1.2 Application A98/036 had been previously tabled at a meeting held August 27, 1998, to allow the applicant time to have a new survey prepared which shows the current configuration of all buildings and accessory structures. This application was to recognize existing buildings and structures, and was approved as applied for by Committee. 1.3 Application A98/040 and A 98/042 were approved as applied for. bL7 REPORT NO.: PD-116-98 PAGE2 1.4 Application A98/041 was approved as applied for by Committee. This application was to recognize an existing shed with reduced side and rear yard setbacks and to recognize an existing deck with a 0 metre side yard setback. Staff had recommended approval of the existing shed and denial of the existing deck, based on a loss of enjoyment of the abutting property, caused by a reduction in privacy. The abutting property owner affected by the deck sent two letters to Staff, stating they had no objection to the deck abutting the property line. The applicant preferred to leave the deck as it exists since a Jacuzzi is located within it, approximately 0.38 metres (15 inches) from the property line. Based on the information presented: that the majority of the deck is located in the side yard between the houses; only the deck containing the Jacuzzi is located in the rear yard; and, the abutting property owners observation that their privacy is not compromised by the deck, Committee approved the application as applied for, leaving the deck and shed existing as they are. Although the approval was not consistent with Staff's recommendation, Staff are content with the decision based on the above information presented at the Committee meeting. 1.5 The purpose of each minor variance application and the Committee's decisions are detailed in Attachment No. 1. 1.6 Staff have reviewed the Committee's decisions and are satisfied that all decisions are in conformity with the Official Plan policies, consistent with the intent of the Zoning By-law and minor in nature and desirable. 1.7 Council's concurrence with the Committee of Adjustment decisions is required in order to afford staff's official status before the Ontario Municipal Board in the event of an appeal of any decision of the Committee of Adjustment. bZ~ REPORT NO.: PD-116-98 PAGE 3 Respectfully submitted, s~~ - ~~.
