Comment:
O�cial Plan and Zoning By-law
Pickering O�cial Plan —"Urban Residential — Low Density Area" within the Rougemount
Neighbourhood
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 significantly 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 wili also minimize the appearance
of an extended garage projection
• the subject property is heavily vegetated which screens out surrounding
neighbours
• the intent of the zoning by-law would be maintained

City nf 1'ickering
This appli: arion is coming back to the Committee of.4djustment in 3 weeks rime R I felt iY
imPort.ant to add t� the comments i submitted earlier.
This applica+��n r;z*:s contra�y to by-law ainendinent 2912!8R, that was enac:ed to restrict ±he
prohusion of an attached garage and maiut�� some control on developmenY ou 1ie sheet. The
au2endment was passed in 1988 after a lengfliy study by tl�e City Planning Dept thaY ident4fied
muque characterisrics tliat were felt to Ue des�ralle and shouid be preserved. The proposed
addibon is innre than a niere garage, rt�s more li#e an additional dwelling. 1'he proposal requests
substantially more than a minor vaziance.
Every new l�uilding since the vnendment was passed has conformed to the maximum 2A metre
gazage protrusion. There may t+e minor variations sich as 2.5 or 3.0 metres, certain!y none were
4:6 metres as this applicatinn requests. There are no 2 stnrey garages on the streeY. Except for
homes built before the by-law, ail garaoes ha��e been incorporated into the main structure.
The gazane af my hause, 1432 Rau�e�naunt extends 4.fi metres past the fionY of't�ie house. It
was built pnor to the by-iaw change in i988. My house 8c the oue umnediately to the south were
the catalysts for an�ending the by-law in ly$8. If the extension of'iny garage was deemed
"unsightly" ui ly2iiS at 4.6 metres, how is it thaY y.6 mehes is not deemed "unsightiy" now? Why
bother then with a by-law? There is no prece,cient for this variavice. 1 here are other candidates
for possible recievelopment on the street. Granting this variance will set that precedent for otbers.
It ti��ii undo �II the effort of tt�e past 20 yeazs to maintain the unique smFChue on this stceek

des'vable. There is truly no other s+seet like this iv Pickerin�. The by-laws aclueved die desixed
