Peter Bonfiglio expressed concerns with drainage affecting surrounding properties and building without a permit. In response to questions from a Committee Member, M. Yeung, Assistant Secretary-Treasurer explained the building permit process which assesses drainage to ensure it is self contained on the property and is not aware of any other complaints reported regarding drainage.

Correspondence received from Carolyn & Paul Sweenie expressed concerns that the subject property is a corner lot and the visual obstruction the proposed garage will have for vehicles approaching the stop sign at Stag horn Road and Oakwood Drive, safety of pedestrians due to potential traffic hazard and the siting of the garage in front of the existing home is unappealing. Carolyn & Paul Sweenie questioned if the proposal is for an attached or detached garage, the visual details in comparison to the surrounding neighbouthood, and will the face of the garage be in line with or extend further than the existing home to the south. In response to questions from concerned neighbours Vince Modica explained the house has no garage, there are several trees on the property that have to be preserved and the proposed garage is not able to be located in the rear yard because there is not enough space. Vince Modica also indicated the dwelling is registered as a 2-unit dwelling with the City. Sal Modica explained the proposed garage will add value and blend in with the home and surrounding neighbourhood. Sal Modica also indicated the zoning issues are a result of the new street Stag horn Road. 4 Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes Wednesday, May 22, 2013 7:00pm Main Committee Room Robert & Sharon Van Shaik expressed concerns the proposed attached garage will negatively impact the surrounding area, decrease property values and feels the garage can be located in the rear yard off of Staghorn Road. Thomas Martin & Michelle Mitchell expressed concerns with the location of the proposed garage and feels it could be located in the rear yard out of the way. Doreen Brown expressed the same concerns as her surrounding neighbours with the location of the proposed garage and feels it could be located in the rear yard out of the way. Brendan Donnelly & Vera lsachenko expressed concerns the height of the proposed garage that it may turn into living space and feels a single car garage would be better suited for the subject property. A photo was submitted for the Committee to review and questioned where the proposed garage is going to be located and how many metres it will project outwards from the front main wall of the house. Dan Drummond indicated there have been lots of changes in the neighbourhood with large homes being built and he feels the neighbourhood is becoming over developed. Dan Drummond expressed concerns with the proposed garage having a negative visual impact and the affect it will have on the surrounding neighbourhood.

James Timleck, owner, Jim Drakopoulos, agent, were present to represent the application. Douglas Kutz of 693 Foxwood Trail was present in favour of the application. James Timleck indicated this minor variance application is only in front of the committee because of a complaint that was filed on the height of the existing privacy fence and accessory. structure (pergola and deck) and not on the side yard width. He further indicated that since the height of the privacy fence and deck is below City requirements and there are no complaints regarding the side yard width, the Committee should approve the application. James Timleck explained if the deck was relocated or reduced in width size, it will not change the visual impact on surrounding neighbours but rather there would be a safety concern with the lack of space on the deck for people to pass. 7 03 Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes Wednesday, May 22, 2013 7:00pm Main Committee Room In response to questions from Committee Members, James Timleck advised that the above ground pool was installed in 2011 and the deck was built in the spring of 2012. In addition, the Committee Member questioned James Timleck for not obtaining a building permit and whether the existing accessory structure and deck will comply with the Ontario Building Code. James Timleck responded that he did not know he needed a building permit as the structure is soundly built, but he anticipates that he would have no issues in obtaining a building permit to comply with the Ontario Building Code. Jim Drakopoulos explained if the structure was reduced in size there will be a safety issue and if it is relocated there will be no change on the visual impact on the surrounding neigbourhood. The Committee Members also questioned the agent for building without a building permit. Jim Drakopoulos indicated he was not employed for the construction of the accessory structure. Douglas Kutz indicated moving or making the structure smaller will provide no change and if the structure was to be made smaller, there will be a safety concern for the users walking on the deck. Douglas Kutz explained the existing construction does not impact property values. Moved by Tom Copeland Seconded by Bill Utton That application PICA 29/13 by G. & J. Timleck, be Deferred until the next meeting in order to give the Committee Members an opportunity to visit the site.

Report PICA 25/13 June 12, 2013 (Deferred from May 1, 2013 meeting) Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan-"Urban Residential-Low Density Area" within the Bay Ridges Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 2511-"R4"-Fourth Density Residential Zone Background On November 7, 1967, the City of Pickering expropriated approximately 4.0 metres of land across the property's frontage for road widening purposes. As a result, the expropriation caused the existing front porch to encroach within the City's road allowance. In order to recognize the porch encroachment, a formal agreement between the City and the owner was executed. The existing dwelling is a one storey frame structure and is estimated to have been built in the 1870's. It is known as the Mathew O'Brien House. The property is identified in the City of Pickering Inventory of Heritage Properties prepared by Unterman McPhail Associates, February 2002, but is not listed on the City of Pickering Municipal Heritage Register of Properties of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest or is it designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, therefore consultation with the Heritage Committee is not required. On May 1, 2013, the Committee of Adjustment deferred the minor variance application as per the request of City Staff. Staff requested to defer the application in order to allow the Pickering Heritage Advisory Committee to review and comment on the applicant's proposal as a courtesy, given the age of the structure and its potential to have heritage value. On May 23, 2013, the applicant and owner presented their proposal at the Pickering Heritage Advisory Committee meeting. The Committee commented a week following the meeting in order to allow its members to visit the property. The Pickering Heritage Advisory Committee advised that City Development Staff should consider a reduction to the proposed scale and massing of the applicant's proposal in order to preserve the character of the existing building.

The City's Planning & Design Section is satisfied that this amendment is in accordance with the spirit and intent of the applicant's requested variances and has revised the requested variances pertaining to the proposed garage as follows: Previous Relief Applied For Revised Requested Relief Applied For to permit a 52 square metre detached garage located in the front yard with a minimum front yard depth of 9.0 metres, a minimum south side yard to permit a minimum south width of 0.9 metres; whereas the by-law requires all side yard width of 0.9 metres accessory structures detached from the dwelling be to a proposed attached erected in the rear yard garage; whereas the by-law to permit a maximum height of 3.8 metres for a requires a minimum side yard proposed 52 square metre detached garage; width of 1.5 metres whereas the by-law permits a maximum height of 3.5 metres for all accessory buildings Since Staff considers the proposed attached garage as a contiguous connection to the dwelling, the same zoning requirements (such as building setbacks and height) which currently apply to the dwelling will also apply to the attached garage. Report PICA 27113 May22, 2013 Page 3 On March 24, 1984, the City of Pickering Committee of Adjustment approved a Minor Variance Application (PICA 01184) to permit a south side yard width of 0.79 metres and a flankage side yard width of 1.58 metres to the existing dwelling. As part of this application, the applicant submitted a Surveyor's Certificate which illustrated a slight reduction to the Committee's approved flankage side yard and south side yard variances affecting the existing footprint of the dwelling. City records indicate that no new alterations to the original dwelling have been made since the Committee's decision in 1984. As a result, the City Development Department has requested that the applicant recognize the flankage side yard and south side yard setbacks as illustrated on the applicant's submitted Surveyor's Certificate.

Committee of Adjustment Application PICA 29/13 G. & J. Timleck 691 Foxwood Trail Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 1543/82 to permit a 0.2 metre south side yard width to an existing accessory structure. (pergola attached to a deck) not part of the main building, whereas the by-law requires a minimum side yard width of 1.0 metre for all accessory structures not part of the main building. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit for an existing accessory structure (pergola attached to a deck) associated with an above ground pool. Recommendation The City Development Department considers the 0.2 metre south side yard width to an existing accessory structure (pergola attached to a deck) not part of the main building is not considered to be minor in nature; not desirable for the appropriate development of the land, building or structure; and not in keepillg with the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law, and therefore recommends Refusal of the proposed variance.

In addition, the applicant has erected a 2.5 metre high pergola on top of the deck and a fence along the south side of the deck; these works have been constructed without obtaining a building permit • the existing detached deck has a south side yard setback of 0.2 metres and a rear yard setback of 1.0 metres • further reducing the south side yard setback would increase the visual impact on the adjoining properties and would also result in potential increase in the activities on the deck thus having greater negative impacts on the privacy of adjoining properties • this may also establish an undesirable precedent for property owners to construct decks beyond the by-law requirements· • staff are of the opinion that the deck, pergola and fence would create an adverse impact on to the abutting neighbours and therefore staff are of the opinion that the requested variance is not minor in nature, not desirable and appropriate for the development of the land and does not meet the general intent of Zoning By-law • it should be noted that the applicant has submitted letters from 3 property owners in the neighbourhood indicating that they have no issue or objection to the proposed variance Date of report: May 16, 2013 Comments prepared by: ~~ Nile h Surti, MCIP, RPP Planner II Manager, Development Review & Urban Design MY:NS:Id J:\Documents\Development\D-3700\Reports\2013\pca29-13.doc Enclosures - } AMBERLEA PARK L5 C::Tit-...1--,l,l.,.--,---l ci w ~..L....I.....L..J....J....J.....!...-L..l...l~ SUBJECT PROPERTY City of Pickering City Development Department PROPERTY DESCRIPTION 691 Foxwood Traii(Pian 40M-1254, Pt.

Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan -"Urban Residential -Low Density Area" within the Rosebank Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 2511 -"R4"-Fourth Density Residential Zone 42 Report PICA 31/13 June 12, 2013 Page 2 Background On December 10, 2012, the Region of Durham Land Division Committee approved an application through Land Division Application LD 126/12, to sever the subject lands and create one new residential lot fronting onto Rosebank Road while retaining a larger lot with partial frontage to permit one buildable lot off of Pike Court (see Applicant's Submitted Plan). Amongst other conditions stipulated by the Land Division Committee, the applicant is required to satisfy various requirements by the City of Pickering outside of this minor variance application in order to finalize the land division. The applicant proposes to construct a detached bungalow on the northerly portion of the proposed retained lot. The owner intends to further subdivide the southerly portion of the retained lands to create two additional lots once there is an opportunity to extend Pike Court further south. Although the Pickering Official Plan does not illustrate a future extension of Pike Court, the City anticipates a southerly extension of the road through orderly rear lot development. If rear lot development is pursued by abutting landowners, the owner of the subject lands may consider filing future land division applications to the Region of Durham Land Division Committee to create two additional parcels with minimum lot frontages of 15.0 metres off of Pike Court. Appropriateness of the Application Side Yard Width Variance • the intent of a side yard width is to provide an appropriate separation between structures on abutting properties in order to maintain a pedestrian access, and to accommodate grading, drainage and residential services such as air conditioning units and utility metres • the requested side yard width of 1.2 metres to the proposed dwelling will provide an adequate separation between the dwelling and the property line to accommodate pedestrian access, grading, drainage and residential utility services • the proposed variance to reduce the side yard width from 1.5 metres to 1.2 metres will not negatively impact the adjoining property to the north • the requested variance is minor in nature and maintains the intent of the zoning by-law Date of report: June 5, 2013 Comments prepared by: rti, MCIP, RPP Manager, Development Review & Urban Design AY:NS:Id J:\Documents\Development\0~3700\2013\PCA 31-13\Report\PCA 31-13.doc Enclosures =]& f----- ,_____ r-----C 0 U RT) w 1----------' 1 I I F ~ ~ : DRIVE r-I I~ 1------t-----li 1------t-----l~l----+--------l r-----+--~qr--+------~ -- r-----~~~ r--+--,----~ -~-L~-----1 r------1..,----1 ~ 1----'----r-----1 ~======~==-=: 31-------+------l c--:--2 r-----t---~ \.

The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit to construct a second storey covered balcony. Recommendation The City Development Department considers the minimum flankage side yard width of 2.6 metres to a second storey covered balcony to be minor in nature that is 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 conditions: 1. That this variance apply only to the proposed second storey covered balcony, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans. 2. That the proposed second storey covered balcony remains unenclosed, or this decision shall become null and void. 3.

The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to continue the operation of a temporary golf practice facility use for the period of July 5, 2013 to December 31, 2014, after which only agriculture uses are permitted. Recommendation The City Development Department considers a temporary golf practice facility use 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 conditions: 1. That this variance apply only to the area zoned as "A(T-GPF)" in By-law 3037 as amended by By-laws 4825196 and 6847108, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans. 2. That the variance shall apply for the period of July 5, 2013 to December 31, 2015, and that this decision shall become null and void on January 1, 2016. The above-noted minor variance has been amended by staff to apply for the period of July 5, 2013 to December 31, 2015 to allow the applicant additional time to seek permanent zoning for the subject lands. Report PICA 34/13 June 12, 2013 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Official Plan Amendment No.22 -Mount Pleasant Neighbourhood Plan 18-Active Recreation Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-laws 3155/89, 4825/96 and 6847/08- "A(T-GPF), A/GC & 02/GC" Background The subject lands are part of the Whitevale Golf Club property, which is located southeast of the Hamlet of Whitevale. The Golf Course is within the limits of the Seaton Urban Area. The Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) recently approved Official Plan Amendment No. 22 (OPA 22) including revised schedules on March 25, 2013, which implements the Central Pickering Development Plan for the Seaton Urban Area. The subject lands are currently within in the Mount Pleasant Neighbourhood Plan and are designated "Active Recreation" which permits a golf course. The golf practice facility (driving range) has been permitted on a temporary basis since 1996. The temporary use permission was considered appropriate until such time as major road alignments for the future Seaton Community, which affect the golf course lands, could be confirmed through the Region of Durham Environmental Assessment program. The current zoning permission expired on January 1, 2013 and the applicant has requested to extend the permission for two more years. As noted above, staff are recommending that the requested permission be extended for a maximum of three years to allow the Whitevale Golf Club lands to seek permanent zoning permission to permit the golf club and accessory uses over the subject lands. The draft Seaton Zoning By-law permits a golf course on the lands in accordance with the Official Plan and the property appears to meet the proposed performance measures. Appropriateness of the Application • the intent of the zoning by-law is to provide uses that are appropriate for the subject lands • a golf practice facility use has been permitted on the subject lands and no change to the subject property are proposed • the continuance of a golf practice facility on a temporary basis does not appear to have any adverse effects on the surrounding area • OPA 22 designates the lands Active Recreation which permits a golf course use • a zoning amendment application will be submitted after the Seaton Zoning by-law has been approved by the OMB 53 6D Report PICA 34/13 June 12, 2013 Page 3 • an extension of the golf practice facility use for 3 years is considered appropriate to allow for the completion of the Region of Durham Environmental Assessment program • the intent of the zoning by-law would be maintained Date of report: June 6, 2013 Comments prepared by: l.~· Cristina Celebre, MCIP, RPP Senior Planner-Development Review & Heritage CC:NS:Id J:\Documents\Development\D-3700\2013\PCA 34-13\Report\PCA 34-13 Report.doc Enclosures Nile i, MCIP, RPP Manager, Development Review & Urban Design ROAD SUBJECT PROPERTY City of Pickering City Development Department PROPERlY DESCRIPTION 2985 Golf Club Road (South Part of Lot 29 & 30, Con. 4, 40R-18997, Pts 1 & 2) OWNER Whitevale Golf Club DATE May 21,2013 DRAWN BY JB FILE No. P /CA 34/13 SCALE 1:10,000 CHECKED BY AY PN-RUR Information Compiled from Applicant's Submitted Plan PICA 34/13 Whitevale Golf Club To permit a golf practice facility.

The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit to construct and replace an existing uncovered deck. Recommendation The City Development Department considers the rear yard depth of 6.0 metres to an uncovered deck in the rear yard 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 conditions: 1. That this variance apply only to the proposed uncovered deck, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans. 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by June 12, 2015, or this decision shall become null and void.

Based on staff's review it was determine that proposed new deck required relief from the zoning by-law. The new deck will be attached to the main floor of the dwelling and will have a similar height and dimension as the existing deck. The proposed deck will have a height of approximately 8.0 metres from the established ground level and will be approximately 13.0 square metres in size. In order to permit the construction of the new deck, the applicant is seeking relief from the zoning by-law to reduce the maximum rear yard setback. Appropriateness of the Application Rear Yard Depth Variance • the intent of the rear yard depth requirement is to provide appropriate separation between adjoining properties to protect privacy of neighbouring amenity areas and to ensure adequate private rear yard amenity area is provided on the subject property • the proposed rear yard depth of 6 metres to the uncovered deck does not extend across the entire width of the dwelling and the remainder of the rear yard will still have sufficient amount of private amenity area • concerns regarding privacy and potential overlook on adjoining properties to the south and east will be minimal due to an existing mature hedge along the south and east properties lines • staff are of the opinion that the requested variance is minor in nature, is desirable for the appropriate development of the property and maintains the purpose and intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Date of report: June 5, 2013 Comments prepared by: l.L- Cristina Celebre, MCIP, RPP Senior Planner -Development Review & Heritage CC:NS:Id J:\Documents\Development\D-3700\Reports\2013\pca35-13 Report. doc Enclosures e Surti, MCIP, RPP Manager, Development Review & Urban Design LL r--- ~~ r---r----,----~ L--. f---COURTL- I I Fl ~ l DRIVE r-----I II~ I U1 <t f--'--- r----~-I <t f-z ::::> 0 f--2 I « \ \ " \ w > C2 0 TOYNEVALE Ll f---f-z ~ w I--f---u f---U1 f---w f----0:: u f-z w u U1 w 0:: <t u _j I 0 <t 0 0 w _j ~~ t2z -J~ ~f- _I I I r---- -=lll/ MAITLAND DRIVE ...S.!'P:!~f!
