2. Background
2.1 On June 7th, 2022, a building permit was issued for a proposed 84.5 square metre
accessory structure in the form of a detached garage. On November 4th, 2022, a minor
variance application was received for an additional 35 metres of floor area within the
existing accessory structure. There are (4) existing accessory structures on the property
that range in size totalling approximately 54 square metres in floor area. The proposed
additional floor space would increase the maximum allowable total floor area for all
structures for a rural residential property from 90 square metres to 175 square metres.

4. Public Notice and Submissions
4.1 Pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, the appropriate signage
acknowledging the application was installed on the subject lands. In addition, the
appropriate notice was mailed to each landowner within the prescribed distance.
4.2 At the time of writing this report, Staff have not received any inquiries regarding the
proposal.
5. Discussion
5.1 Upon further review of the Minor Variance application, Staff discovered that the building
permit for the accessory structure was issued in error. Given the number of accessory
buildings on the subject site, the maximum total accessory floor area for the subject site
is almost double what is permitted. In addition, the building height is 5.7 metres rather
than the 4.5 metres permitted by Zoning by-law 84-63.
5.2 Staff recommend tabling the Minor Variance to allow for further discussion with
applicant.
