Meeting Date: November 16, 2016
Principal Planner-Development Review Revised
. Subject: Committee of Adjustment Application PICA 62116
H. Kasim
1854 Woodview Avenue
Application
The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, to:
• recognize an existing accessory structure setback 0.2 of a metre from the north and
west lot line; whereas the by-law requires all accessory structures less than 1.8 metres
in height and less than 10.0 square metres in area to be setback 0.6 of a metre from all
lot lines
• permit a minimum rear yard setback of 6.8 metres; whereas the by-law requires a
minimum rear yard setback of 7.5 metres
• permit a maximum lot coverage of 36 percent; whereas the by-law permits a maximum
lot coverage of 33 percent.
The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to recognize an existing shed in
the rear yard and to obtain a building permit to construct a single-storey addition in the rear yard.
Recommendation
The City Development Department considers a minimum rear yard setback of 6.8 metres and a
maximum lot coverage of 36 percent, to be minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate
development of the land, and in keeping with the general intent and purpose of the .
Official Plan and the Zoning By-law, and therefore recommends Approval of the proposed
variances, subject to the following conditions:
1. That the maximum lot coverage variance apply to the existing accessory structure (shed)
and the proposed one-storey addition, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's
submitted plans. ·
2. That the minimum rear yard setback variance apply only to the proposed one-storey
addition, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans.
3. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by
October 26, 2018, or this decision shall become null and void.
and
Report PICA 62116 November 16, 2016 7
Page 2
The City Development Department considers an existing accessory structure (shed) setback
0.2 of a metre from the north and west lot line to be a major variance, that is not considered to be
desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and not in keeping with the general intent
and purpose of the Zoning By-law, and therefore recommenos Refusal of the proposed variance.
Background
On October 26, 2016, the Committee of Adjustment deferred application PICA 62116 at the
request of the applicant in order to revise the application to include additional variances
required for an existing 5.4 square metre shed, located in the rear yard. Revised notice of the
application was mailed on November 2, 2016 to include a variance to reduce the required
setbacks from the north and west lot line. After the revised notice was mailed City Staff
recognized that the maximum lot coverage, including the proposed one-storey addition and
existing shed, was 35.7 percent. The notice reflected a maximum lot coverage of 35 percent
had been requested, however it has now been revised to a maximum lot coverage of
36 percent.
Comment
Official Plan and Zoning By-law
Pickering Official Plan -"Urban Residential-Low Density Areas" within the High bush Neighbourhood
Zoning By-law 3036 -"R4" -Fourth Density Residential Zone
Appropriateness of the Application
Reduction in Required Rear Yard Setback Variance
• the intent of the minimum rear yard setback is to ensure adequate amenity space is
provided within the rear yard, appropriate setbacks are provided to protect the privacy
of abutting property owners and allow appropriate access for maintenance, lot grading
and drainage
• the by-law requires a minimum rear yard setback of 7.5 metres
• the applicant has requested a minimum rear yard setback of 6.8 metres to accommodate
a single-storey addition
• the proposed development will maintain an appropriate amount of useable amenity
space left uncovered by buildings in the rear yard
• the proposed variance will. have minimal impact on the privacy of abutting property
owners as the addition is only one,..storey and has a greater setback from the south side
yard than the existing dwelling
• the requested variance is minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development of
the land and maintains the purpose and intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law
8 Report PICA 62/16
Maximum Lot Coverage Variance
November 16, 2016
Page 3
• the intent of the maximum lot coverage provision is to ensure that the size, scale and
massing of a dwelling, and accessory buildings is appropriate for the lot size and to
ensure an adequate amount of outdoor amenity area remains uncovered by buildings
on a lot
• the original application included a one-storey addition to the existing dwelling, however
an existing accessory structure (shed) was not shown on the submitted drawing
• an increase in lot coverage from 33 percent to 35 percent was required for the
one-storey addition, an additional 1 percent is required to recognize an existing
5.4 square metre shed, for a total maximum lot coverage of 36 percent
• the increase in lot coverage will provide for the appropriate development of the land as
the size and massing of the proposed addition and existing accessory structure will be
in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighbourhood
• the proposed development will maintain a sufficient amount of outdoor amenity area
that will remain uncovered and unobstructed on the lot
• the requested variance is minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development of
the land and maintains the purpose and intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law
Reduction of the Minimum Setback Requirement for an Existing Accessory Structure
• the intent of the minimum 0.6 of a metre setback requirement for accessory structures,
less than 1.8 metres in height and 10 square metres in area, is to ensure that adequate
space is available for maintenance, that the eaves/overhangs do not encroach onto
adjacent properties, that roof drainage stays on the subject property, and that the visual
impact on adjacent properties is minimized
• the owner is requesting to allow for an existing accessory structure (shed) setback
0.2 of a metre from the north and west lot line
• the current location of the shed does not appear to provide for adequate space to
maintain the accessory structure
• the existing setbacks and eaves/overhangs do not ensure that roof drainage stays on
the subject property
• staff is of the opinion that a minimum 0.6 metre setback from all property lines would
ensure adequate space is available for maintenance and that eaves/overhangs would
not encroach on adjacent properties
• staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is not minor in nature, does not meet
the intent of the Zonirig By-law, and is not desirable for the appropriate development of
the land

Averton (Brock) Limited
Block 2, 40M-2568
The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-law 7444/15:
• to permit an accessory building (water meter building) to be located outside the building
envelope; whereas, the by-law does not permit any building, part of a building, or
structure to be erected outside of the building envelope illustrated on Schedule II
• to permit an accessory building (water meter building) with a maximum height of
4.6 metres; whereas the by-law states that rio accessory building shall exceed a height
of 3.5 metres in any residential zone
The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to obtain Site Plan approval and a
building permit to construct a one-storey water meter building on the subject lands .
. Recommendation
The City Development Department considers an accessory building (water meter building)
located outside of the building envelope, with a maximum height of 4.6 metres, to be minor in
nature, desirable· for the appropriate development of the land, and in keeping with the general
intent and purpose of the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law, and therefore recommends
Approval of the proposed variance, subj~ct to the following conditions:
1. That this variance apply only to the proposed accessory building (water meter building), as
generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans.
2. That the applicant obtain Site Plan Approval for the proposed building by November 16, 2017,
or this decision shall become null and void.
3. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed accessory building
(water meter building) by November 16, 2018, or this decision shall become null and void.
Report PICA 64/16
Background
November 16, 2016 15
Page 2
A Draft Plan of Subdivision and a Zoning By-law Amendment were approved by Council on
July 14, 2014 to facilitate a residential condominium development. Subsequ.ently, the applicant
submitted a Site Plan Application providing further details of the development. Upon review of
the application, staff identified that minor variances were required in order to facilitate the
development of this proposal. The proposed relief from the by-law deals with specific
requirements to allow a water meter building to be located outside the building envelope with a
greater height that permitted. ·
Comment
Official Plan and Zoning By-law
Pickering Official Plan-"Mixed Use Areas-Mixed Corridors" within the Duffin
Heights Neighbourhood.
Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-law 7444/15-"MU-MD-1"-Mixed Use-Medium
Density Zone, which permit a mixed use development consisting of stacked townhouses,
back-to-back stacked townhouses, back-to-back townhouses and apartment buildings that
contain ground floor commercial uses. ·
Appropriateness of the Application
Requested variances to permit an accessory building outside of the building envelope and with
an increase in height
• the intent of the by-law in requiring a building envelope is to maintain certain setbacks
from new development to streets and abutting properties
• the intent of the by-law in permitting a maximum accessory building height of 3.5 metres
in a residential zone is to minimize the visual impact that these structures may have on
abutting properties and oh the streetscape, to ensure other yards are not significantly
obstructed by these structures on the property, and to further ensure that accessory
buildings do not become the dominant buildings on residential properties
• the by-law requires a building envelope as shown on Schedule II to the By-law (7444/15),
which illustrates a 10.0 metre setback along the north property line
• the applicant is proposing to permit an accessory building (water meter building) outside
the building envelope along the north property line
• the applicant is proposing to permit a 22.5 square metre accessory building, 4.6 metres
in height, to be setback a minimum of 1.6 metres from the north property line and
2.2 metres from the east property line along William Jackson Drive
• an adequate buffer space between the proposed accessory building and the street
(William Jackson Drive) will be maintained
1 6 Report PICA 64/16 November 16, 2016
Page 3
• fast growing deciduous shrubs with a maximum height of between 1.8 metres and
2.4 metres, are proposed in the landscaped area between the north property line and
the building containing the water meter room to provide a buffer that will screen and
reduce the visual impact on abutting properties, a 1.8 metre wood privacy fence will also
be constructed along the north property line
• staff are of the opinion that the requested variance to locate an accessory building
(water meter building) outside of the building envelope and with an increase in height
will not have any adverse impact on surrounding properties or the usability of the
subject property
• staff are of the opinion that the requested variances are minor in nature, desirable for-
the appropriate development of the subject lands and is in keeping with the intent of the
Official Plan and Zoning By-law

Committee of Adjustment
Application Number: PICA 65116
Date: November 16, 2016
Principal Planner-Development Review
Subject: Committee of Adjustment Application PICA 65116
N. Hubley & A. Roy
. 345 Whitevale Road
Application
The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-law 2677188, to
permit an accessory building (detached garage) with a maximum height of 5.2 metres in a
residential zone, whereas the by-law states that no accessory building shall exceed a height
of 3.5 metres in any residential zone.
The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit to
construct an accessory building (detached garage) in the rear yard.
Recommendation
The City Development Department considers an accessory building (detached garage) with a
maximum height of 5.2 metres to be minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development
of the land, and in keeping with the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and the ·
Zoning By-law, and therefore recommends Approval of the proposed variance, subject to the
following con<;litions:
1. That this variance apply only to the proposed detached garage, as generally sited and
outlined on the applicant's submitted plans.
2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by
November 16, 2018, or this decision shall become· null and void.

Additional Information
November 16, 2016
Page 2
The subject property is located within the Whitevale Heritage Conservation District and is
protected under Part V of the Ontario Hedtage Act. A Heritage Permit is required for any new
construction or demolition on the property.
On August 24, 2016, the applicant submitted a Heritage Permit Application to demolish an
existing garage and construct a one-and-a-half-storey garage with a storage loft. An
architectural firm was retained by the City to assist in the review of the Heritage Permit
Application and provide advice on the appropriateness of the proposal in relation to the
Whitevale Heritage Conservation District Guidelines. Following this review, it was
recommended that the pitch of the roof be reduced to match the roof profile of the main house.
The applicant revised their proposal to reflect the comments of the consultant and City staff.
As a result, th'e proposed height of the detached garage increased from 4.7 metres to 5.2 metres.
On September 28, 2016, Heritage Pickering reviewed the revised Heritage Permit Application
and a motion was carried stating that Heritage Pickering does not object to the construction of
the proposed garage (revised plan dated September 22, 2016).
Appropriateness of the Application
Increase in Accessory Building Height Variance
• the intent of the maximum height of 3.5 metres for accessory buildings in a residential
zone is to minimize the visual impact that these structures may have on abutting
properties and on the streetscape, to protect the privacy of abutting property owners
and to ensure that accessory buildings do not become the dominant buildings on
residential properties
• the applicant has requested a variance to permit an accessory building (detached
garage) to have a maximum height of 5.2 metres '
• the applicant is proposing to demolish an existing detached garage and construct a new
detached garage that will be accessory to the principal residential dwelling
• the proposed detached garage will have minimal impact on the streetscape as it will be
located in the rear yard in a similar location to the existing garage, approximately
7.6 metres setback from the rear wall of the heritage house
• the proposed increase in height will have minimal impact on abutting properties and
privacy of abutting property owners as it will be screened by mature trees to the east
and maintains a minimum setback of 1.2 metres from the east lot line
• · the requested variance is minor in nature and maintains the intent of the Official Plan
and Zoning By-law and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land
