CONNELL PART LOT 8, CONCESSION 1 , TOWN OF BOWMANVILLE FILE NUMBER: DEV 83-17 RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that Council approved the following resolutions : 1 . That Report PD-154-83 be received; and * 2. That the attached by-law amending By-law 1587, as amended, be approved. I i . . .2 REPORT NO. : PD-154-83 Page 2 BACKGROUND: At the meeting held on September 26, 1983, Council approved an amendment for rezoning (DEV 83-17) whereby the zone designation was changed to "R1 " as shown on Map 4 within Restricted Area By-law 1587. Following the approval (Council ) of By-law 83-126, it has been brought to staff's attention by Mr. M. Brown, O.L.S. (Agent) on behalf of Mr. Connell that in consideration of the minimum front yard setback within the "R1 " zone of twenty-five (25) feet and road widening of 3.048 metres (10 feet) to be dedicated to the Town, the "physical siting" of the dwelling unit - which has been relocated from another lot in town, would encounter some "engineering difficulties" when the attempt at placing the dwelling on a foundation occurs. Mr. Brown has indicated that the home has to be "dropped" onto the foundation and accordingly the truck transporting the dwelling unit has to be properly positioned to do so. In consideration of the topography of the site and size of truck required, a thirty-five (35) foot setback from the existing road allowance would be difficult if not impractical . Accordingly, staff would have no objection to the approval of the By-law amendment as attached whereby the property is to develop in compliance with the "R" zone designation within By-law 1587.
