The Secretary -Treasurer outlined the staff recommendation from the City Development Department recommending approval subject to conditions and recommending refusal for a maximum building height of 9.5 metres for P/CA 35/18. Written comments were received from the City's Engineering Services Department expressing no comments on the application. Written comments were received from the residents of 1282 Commerce Street and 1288C Commerce Street in support of the applications. Written comments were received from the residents of 1285 Commerce Street in objection to the applications. Written comments were also received from Councillor McLean in support of the variance. A petition in support of the applications were submitted by the applicant and signed by 18 area residents indicating they agree that the proposed architecture has been thoughtfully designed to consider the height and architecture to provide a smooth transition of the streetscape; can fit a proposed building with a height of 9.4 metres which allows the provision of architecture to create a more pleasing landscape; denying the minimal height variance forces the applicant to design a completely different design that may negatively impact the neighbourhood. Correspondence received from the residents of 1282 Commerce Street indicated future dwellings would be in keeping with the character of the street and would be a good addition to the neighbourhood. Page 3 of 16 4 DICKERING izy Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes Wednesday, June 20, 2018 7:03 pm Council Chambers Correspondence received from the residents of 1285 Commerce Street indicated the Committee should reject the proposal as the applications consists of a number of variances that are not minor in nature; the Committee should not approve any dwellings proposed over the 9.0 metre height restriction; and the severance application should not be approved as the extent of the variances required to facilitate the proposal are not minor. Correspondence received from the residents at 1288C Commerce Street, indicated support for the requested variances and that the variances are in keeping with the streetscape and character of the neighbourhood and are minor in nature. Craig Marshall, agent, was present to represent the applications. Lindsay Pollard, was present to represent the applications. Thomas Dalzell and Jill Adams were present in objection to the applications. Craig Marshall indicated that the recently adopted 9.0 metre height limit by-law results in modern architecture to achieve a 3 -storey building, he is now requesting a maximum height of 9.4 metres not 9.5 metres, the 9.0 metre height by-law is trying to keep bad architecture out of the neighbourhood, City staff indicated that variance applications could be submitted, and a transition in building height is important to make a good streetscape. Thomas Dalzell requested clarification on the variances being applied for and staff recommendations. Thomas Dalzell also expressed a concern with parking; and questioned why no one came to speak with him regarding the proposal. He also stated that these are major variances not minor and would like to see good architecture. The Secretary -Treasurer explained the proposed severed lot is proposing a maximum building height of 10.3 metres and the proposed retained lot is proposing a maximum building height of 9.5 metres. Secretary -Treasurer also stated that staff recommended approval for the 10.3 metre maximum building height for the proposed severed lot and refusal for the 9.5 metre maximum building height for the proposed retained lot. Jill Adams spoke in objection to the applications and the written comments that were previously received prior to the meeting. Jill Adams expressed several concerns that the requested variances are major, not minor; they go against the City's recently adopted initiative; the covered porch, second floor cover balcony and third floor balcony represent a request exceeding the maximum by 133%, 100%, and 60%, this will completely change the streetscape in a unique and beautiful neighbourhood that the City wishes to preserve; and projection of the buildings towards the street will limited sightlines to the water. Jill Adams also stated the applicant's request ignores City By-laws, and this shows disregard for the surrounding neighbours the right to their enjoyment of their own properties and asks the Committee to deny the applicant's request. Page 4 of 16 CJS �f DICKERING Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes Wednesday, June 20, 2018 7:03 pm Council Chambers Craig Marshall indicated that the resident at 1282 Commerce' Street, the neighbouring property, and the majority of the residents on Commerce Street support the applications.

Recommendation The City Development Department considers the requested variances 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 these variances apply only to the gas bar and retail store, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (Exhibit 2). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by July 13, 2020, or this decision shall become null and void. 18 Report P/CA 37/18 July 11, 2018 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan — "Oak Ridges Moraine Rural Hamlets" within the Claremont Settlement Area Zoning By-law 3037, as amended by By-law 6640/06 — "ORM-C2" Appropriateness of the Application Automobile Service Station with One Enclosed Service Bay Variance The Zoning By-law requires "Automobile Service Stations" to have a total of two enclosed service bays within an enclosed building. The applicant is requesting a variance to permit an "Automobile Service Station" with only one enclosed service bay within the existing building. The applicant is requesting the variance to expand the existing retail store within the existing building. A retail store is a permitted use under the "ORM-C2" Zone and there are no restrictions on the area which it may use within a building. The site will continue to operate as an "Automobile Service Station", which will include a gas bar with one hydraulic hoist, a sales office, and one enclosed service bay, while also having room to operate the expanded retail store. The expanded retail store is part of the revitalization of the aesthetics and functioning of the site and is intended to improve the character of the intersection of Central Street and Old Brock Road. The proposed revitalization is required to obtain Site Plan Approval and is currently subject to an active site plan application. The applicant's proposal was reviewed by the Site Plan Advisory Committee on June 12, 2018 and no concerns regarding the removed service bay were raised. Minimum Drive Aisle Width and Maximum Entry/Exit Width Variances The intent of regulating the minimum width of an access drive aisle and the maximum width of any entrance or exit is to provide sufficient controls to allow vehicles to ingress and egress a site safely without adversely impacting traffic operation, and to ensure appropriate internal vehicular circulation. The Zoning By-law requires the minimum width of a one-way aisle used to gain access to a parking stall to be 3.8 metres, and requires the maximum width of any entrance or exit or combined entrance and exit for automobile service stations to not be greater than 10.7 metres. The applicant has requested relief to reduce the minimum one-way access drive aisle width to 3.0 metres between the municipal boulevard abutting Old Brock Road and the parking area on the site, and increase the maximum width of the entrance/exit of the site to 29.1 metres. The existing parking area (currently under construction) is unmarked and located Tess than a metre -from the municipal boulevard. A one-way drive aisle width of 3.0 metres is an improvement on the existing condition. The entrance/exit onto Old Brock Road on the west sideof the site is currently 29.1 metres. The variance is required to recognize the existing situation. Combined with the new parking area, the entrance/exit onto Old Brock Road will allow for improved site circulation. Report P/CA 37/18 July 11, 2018 Page 3 The Site Plan Advisory Committee reviewed the proposal on June 12, 2018 and raised no concerns regarding site circulation. Engineering and Planning staff have reviewed the submitted proposal and have no concerns with the on-site vehicular circulation. Minimum Parking Variance The intent of regulating the minimum number of parking spaces is to ensure that parking demand can be accommodated on-site. The applicant has requested relief to reduce the total number of require parking spaces from 12 to 9 which will accommodate employees and customers. In support of this variance, the applicant has submitted a Parking Justification Brief prepared by Tranplan Associates, and dated June 8, 2018, demonstrating that the proposed parking will satisfy the needs of the facility. The consultant assessed the future parking demand of the site and found that a total of seven parking spaces will accommodate the full capacity of the retail store, the service bay operation, gas bar, and employee parking. The applicant is proposing nine parking spaces; exceeding the minimum recommendation made by the consultant. Prior to construction, parking on the site was unmarked. The addition of marked parking spaces and one accessible parking space represents an improvement on the existing condition. Minimum Landscaped Open Space Variance The Zoning By-lawrequires a minimum landscaped open space of 50 percent of the total lot area. The applicant is requesting a variance to reduce the minimum landscaped open space to 38 percent in order to recognize the existing condition. As part of the revitalization of the site, the applicant is proposing to replace the gravel located on the northeast portion of the property with sod on topsoil. The existing building is not proposed to be expanded and the existing parking area and drive aisle will remain asphalt. The existing situation does not appear to have had a negative impact on the functioning of the site. Staff are of the opinion that the requested variances are minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development of the lands, and maintains the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.

Pesic & K. Dawson 854 Modlin Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 2520, as amended: .• to permit a minimum front yard setback of 7.3 metres to an attached garage, whereas the by-law requires minimum front yard setback of 7.5 metres • to permit a maximum lot coverage of 37 percent, whereas the by-law permits a maximum lot coverage of 33 percent • to permit a covered porch and associated steps to project a maximum of 3.0 metres into the required front yard, whereas the by-law permits uncovered steps or platforms not exceeding 1.0 metre in height to project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required front yard • to permit a covered second -storey balcony to project a maximum of 2.2 metres into the required front yard, whereas the by-law permits uncovered steps or platforms not exceeding 1.0 metre in height to project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required front yard The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to obtain a building permit for the construction of a two-storey addition to the existing dwelling (refer to Exhibits 1, 2, 3 & 4). Recommendation The City Development Department considers the requested variances 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 these variances apply only to the detached dwelling and attached garage, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (Exhibit 2). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by July 13, 2020, or this decision shall become null and void. 3. That the applicant demolish the existing shed located in the rear yard, immediately following the complete construction of the attached garage or by July 13, 2020, whichever is earlier, or this decision shall become null and void. 25 Report P/CA 55/18 July 11, 2018 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan — "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" within the Bay Ridges Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 2520 — "RM1"- Multiple Family Dwelling First Density Zone Appropriateness of the Application Front Yard Setback and Maximum Lot Coverage Variance The intent of the zoning by-law provision requiring a minimum front yard depth is to provide for a consistent building setback to maintain the character of the surrounding area and to ensure a sufficient landscaped area is maintained between a dwelling and the street. The by-law also includes a maximum lot coverage provision which is intended to ensure buildings and structures maintain an appropriate size, scale, and massing and that an adequate amount of outdoor amenity area remains uncovered on a lot. The Zoning By-law requires a minimum front yard depth of 7.5 metres and permits a maximum lot coverage of 33 percent. The applicant has requested a reduction in the minimum front yard depth to 7.3 metres and an increase in the maximum lot coverage to 37 percent in order to accommodate a garage, and a second -storey addition to the existing detached dwelling. The proposed addition will be constructed on the south portion of the property. The reduced front yard depth will facilitate the construction of an attached garage while providing a driveway depth that will accommodate a minimum of one parking space. The reduced front yard proposed will only apply to the area between the front lot line and the proposed garage. The remainder of the dwelling will maintain the required front yard setback of 7.5 metres. Therefore, the requested front yard depth of 7.3 metres will maintain an adequate buffer space between the dwelling and the street and will ensure that sufficient landscaped open space can be provided within the front yard. The proposed increase in lot coverage will provide for the appropriate development of the land as the size and scale of the proposed dwelling will be in keeping with the character of the surrounding neighbourhood and will ensure that a sufficient amount of outdoor amenity space is left uncovered on a lot. The dwelling and proposed addition will maintain the required side and rear yard setbacks, and maintain a significant front yard setback ranging between 7.3 metres and 7.6 metres. Additionally, the proposed attached garage is in keeping with the character of the surrounding area, as other dwellings along Modlin Street have attached garages and attached carports. The requested variances for front yard setback and maximum lot coverage are marginal in nature and will not result in a negative visual impact on the streetscape. 26 Report P/CA 55/18 July 11,2018 Page 3 Covered Porch and Second -Storey Balcony Projecting into the Required Front Yard Variance The intent of the maximum permitted projection of uncovered steps or platforms into the required front yard is to accommodate a landing area and stairs, while ensuring an appropriate setback is maintained within the front yard to provide an adequate landscaped area and maintain a consistent streetscape. The zoning by-law permits uncovered platforms and steps not exceeding 1.0 metre in height above grade to project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required front yard. The applicant is requesting a covered porch, associated steps, and a covered second -storey balcony to project a maximum of 3.0 metres and 2.2 metres, respectively, into the required front yard. An existing covered porch is currently located within the front yard. In October 1999, the applicant received approval from the Committee of Adjustment to facilitate the existing covered porch, which projects approximately 1.0 metre into the front yard. The proposed second -storey balcony will be located directly above the covered porch. Both of which are proposed to project the same distance into the front yard. The steps used to access the proposed porch result in an additional 0.8 metre projection into*the required front yard. The applicant is proposing to maintain the required front yard depth of 7.5 metres between the front lot line and majority of the dwelling, with the exception of a slight reduction to accommodate the attached garage and second -storey addition. The proposed porch and second -storey balcony will be setback a minimum of 5.4 metres from the front lot line and will be unenclosed. Therefore, the proposed porch and balcony will not result in a negative visual impact on the streetscape or the abutting properties immediately to north or south. In addition, the proposed projections will not result in an inconsistent streetscape along Modlin Road. The proposed porch and second -storey balcony will provide additional usable private amenity space in the front yard and will not result in any loss of the landscaped area. Based on the foregoing, City staff are of the opinion that the requested variances are minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintain the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.

Tortorici & L. Zapletal 1414 Old Forest Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended to recognize a covered platform (porch and steps) not exceeding 0.9 of a metre in height to project a maximum of 4.0 metres into the required front yard; whereas the by-law requires uncovered steps or platforms not exceeding 1.0 metre in height above grade to project not more than 1.5 metres into any required front yard. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to recognize an existing porch (refer to Exhibits 1,2&3). Recommendation The City Development Department considers the requested variance 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 condition: 1. That this variance apply only to the existing porch and steps, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (Exhibit 2). Background A building permit was previously issued for the subject property. Through the building permit process, staff identified that the foundation of the detached dwelling was poured closer to the east property line than what was approved in the building permit. As a result, the porch and steps project into the required front yard and now require a variance. Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan — "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" within the Woodlands Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 3036, as amended — "R4" and "G" 32 Report P/CA 56/18 July 11,2018 Page 2 Appropriateness of the Application The intent of the zoning by-law in permitting a maximum projection into the required front yard is to ensure an adequate buffer space between buildings and street activity is provided, and to ensure an adequate landscaped area within the front yard is also maintained. The by-law permits uncovered steps and platforms not exceeding 1.0 metre in height above grade to project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required front yard. The requested variance is required to recognize a covered porch and associated steps not exceeding 0.9 of a metre in height to project a maximum of 4.0 metres into the required front yard. The covered porch extends less than 2.0 metres into the front yard and the steps project a further 2.0 metres, leaving 3.5 metres between the lot line and the furthest extent of the steps. The proposal provides sufficient buffer space between the dwelling and Old Forest Road and maintains an adequate landscaped area within the front yard. Staff is of the opinion that the 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.

Report P/CA 57/18 July 11, 201837 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan — "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" within the Bay Ridges Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 2520 — "RM1 "- Multiple Family Dwelling First Density Zone Appropriateness of the. Application Lot Coverage Variance 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 space remains uncovered by buildings on a lot. The applicant has requested a variance to increase the maximum lot coverage from 33 percent to 36 percent. The existing dwelling has an area of approximately 100.4 square metres, and the proposed addition will have an area of approximately 68.4 square metres. There is currently a 9.3 square metre shed located in the rear yard which is proposed to be demolished upon completion of the addition. When combined, the existing dwelling and addition will have an area of approximately 168.8 square metres and result in a total lot coverage of 36 percent. The addition is proposed to be one -storey in height. The increase in lot coverage will provide for the appropriate development of the land as the size and massing of the proposed addition will be in keeping with the existing built -form of the surrounding area. The proposed development will maintain a sufficient amount of outdoor amenity area that will remain uncovered and unobstructed on the lot. Covered Platform (Porch) Projecting into the Required Front Yard Variance The intent of the zoning by-law in permitting a maximum projection into the required front yard is to ensure an adequate buffer space between buildings and street activity is provided, and to ensure an adequate landscaped area within the front yard is also maintained. The by-law permits uncovered steps and platforms not exceeding 1.0 metre in height above grade to project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required front yard. The requested variance is required to permit a covered porch not exceeding 0.5 of a metre in height above grade, to project a maximum of 1.2 metres into the required front yard. The proposed porch will be setback approximately 6.3 metres from the street and will have an area of approximately 3.7 square metres. The proposal will provide sufficient buffer space between the dwelling and Kingfisher Drive and maintains an adequate landscaped area within the front yard. 38 Report P/CA 57/18 July 11,2018 Page 3 Uncovered Platform (Deck) Projecting into the Required Rear Yard Variance The intent of this provision is to ensure an 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 does not permit uncovered steps or platforms to project into the required rear yard. The requested variance is required to permit a deck not exceeding 1.2 metres in height above grade, to project a maximum of 1.3 metres into the required rear yard. The proposed deck will be setback approximately 6.2 metres from the rear lot line, providing an adequate buffer space between the deck and the rear lot line as well as from abutting property owners. The proposed deck will provide for additional outdoor amenity area and will maintain an adequate amount of soft landscaped area in the rear yard. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances are 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.
