City must maintain the road allowance free of encroachments to protect the cities
use of the road allowance and the utilities and services that are placed within it.
A neighbourhood petition was also received with 20 signatures indicating no
objections to the parking of the truck on the driveway on the subject property.

City of Pickering
Application:
The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-law 2623/87
to recognize as a permitted use an existing 375 square metre vehicle repair shop
(Meineke Car Care Centre) within a portion of an existing building and to permit the

with accessory indoor storage, whereas the by-law only permits a vehicle sales or rental

proposed variance subject to the conditions listed below, and recommends Refusal to
the proposed foam insulation establishment with accessory indoor storage as this
variance is not desirable for the appropriate development of the land, not keeping with
the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law and is considered a major variance.

the uses permitted in the zoning by-law or is considered a minor variance to
the existing permitted uses providing the prescribed tests for a committee of
adjustment appliction have been meet
the Planning & Development Department is of the opinion that the requested
use is outside of the Committee of AdjustmenYs jurisdiction and is not similar
to a vehicle sales or rental establishment

considered similar to a vehicle sales or rental establishment as it also
consists of a retail showroom and display

off-site contractors regularly leaving the site to provide a business for their
clients and will function as a contractors yard
• the Planning & Development Department is of the opinion that the requested
use does not resembles the retail sales of a product, and a showroom (where
the public can enter into a store, view, and purchase an item), but instead will
resemble a commercial-industrial use similar to the warehousing of
contractor's materials with accessory office and indoor storage
• the Committee of Adjustment has no jurisdiction under the P/anning Act to add
new uses to the subject property but can vary existing uses if they are a similar
land use and the Committee is satisfed that the prescribed tests have been met
• the intent of the Zoning By-law would not be maintained
• the requested variance is not minor in nature
• the applicant's proposal should more appropriately be considered by City
Council through an application to amend the zoning by-law

Zoning By-law — 3036 as amended by By-law 2912/88 —"R3" — Single Residential Zone
Appropriateness of the Application
• the intent of the maximum 2.0 metre garage projection requirement is to
encourage a style of development on the subject properties which is similar and
compatible with existing development on Rougemount Drive by preventing the
establishment of an attached garage signifcantly projecting beyond the front of
the dwelling
. the intent is also to maintain adequate buffer space between structures on a
property and street activity, as well as avoiding adverse impact on the
streetscape
• dwellings along Rougemount Drive generally consists of a variety of custom built
homes on large lots
• the applicant has proposed an addition which consists of living space above the
garage, accessible from the existing building
• the proposed orientation of the garage doors in addition to residential floor space
above the garage will blend in with the original building
• proposed windows facing Rougemount Drive will also minimize the appearance
of an eMended garage projection
• the subject property is heavily vegetated which screens out surrounding
neighbours
• the intent of the zoning by-law would be maintained

Appropriateness of the Application
Accessory Structure Setback Variances
. the intent of the zoning by-law in requiring accessory structures to provide a
minimum 1.0 metre setback from lot lines is to ensure that adequate space is
available for maintenance, to ensure that the eaves/overhangs do not
encroach on the adjacent propeRies, ensure roof drainage stays on the
�subject property, and to minimize the visual impact that their location may
have on adjacent properties
• both structures currently exist on the subject property
. the gazebo is opened underneath the roof, which provides an opportunity to
maintain the westerly side yard belween the existing fence
. the existing 0.5 metre side yard width from the existing shed also provides an
opportunity to maintain the westerly side yard belween the existing fence
. the accessory structures does not create a visual distraction as it is screened
by surrounding vegetation and fence found on the subjed property
. the intent of the zoning by-law would be maintained
