THAT Report PD-96-93 be received; 2. THAT Council concur with the decision of the Committee of Adjustment made on May 27, 1993; and 3. THAT Staff be authorized to appear before the ontario Municipal Board to defend the decisions of the Committee of Adjustment in the event of an appeal. 1. In accordance with section 45 of the Planning Act R.S.O. 1990, all applications received by the Town for minor variance are scheduled to be heard wi thin 30 days of being received by the Secretary Treasurer. On May 27, 1993, the Committee heard and APPROVED three (3) applications for minor variance, and dismissed one (1). Details of each application and decision of the Committee is attached for information. 2. Application A93/015 was filed as a result of a by-law complaint. The owners of the subj ect property have a shed which has been constructed with no setback from the side yard property line, as opposed to the 1.2 metre minimum required by the Town's Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63, as amended. Through the circulation and review process, it became apparent that the accessory structure pre-dated the Town's by-law and is therefore considered to be a "permitted non-complying" structure. As a result the Committee dismissed the application and refunded the --------appitcatton--r-Effi-i:n-fu+J::~------ 5~.~. RECVCLED PAPIER PAPER RECYCLE THIS IS PRiNTED ON RECYCLED PAPER REPORT NO.: PD-96-93 PAGE 2 3. Application A93/014 proposed the construction of an attached one and half car garage which would reduce the required side yard setback from 3.0 metres to 1.2 metres. Staff did not support the proposed variance as it appears the applicant could construct an attached single car garage in compliance with the by-law minimum 2.75 metre (width of parking space) and maintain the required 3.0 metre side yard setback. The Committee approved the aplication allowing a 1.2 metre side yard minimum. Staff have reviewed this decision and as no one appeared in objection to the application; the approved reduced side yard (1.2 metre) does not appear to impact on drainage, access to the rear yard and provision of maintenance to the dwelling and in consideration of the legal cost to the Town of an appeal to the ontario Municipal Board it is recommended not to appeal said decision. 4. Staff have reviewed the balance of the Committee's decisions and are satisfied that the decisions conform to the general intent of the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law. 5. Council's concurrence with the Committee of Adjustment decision is required in order to afford Staff's official status before the ontario Municipal Board in the event of an appeal of the decision of the Committee of Adjustment.
