No further representation was present in favour of or in objection to the application. In support of the application, Samantha Bateman advised the lot configuration and size has been approved and supported by the Region of Durham Land Division Committee, subject to conditions. In response to questions from Committee Members, Samantha Bateman indicated the purpose for the fifty per cent reduction of interior side yard width for Lot 6 is due to the unique "FlexHouz" dual suites design that is difficult to reduce and narrow the floorplan to meet the by-law requirement. When questioned about the possibility for air conditioning (A/C) units and fireplace installation, Samantha Bateman advised the placement of the AIC units are typically located at the rear of the dwellings. She indicated the lots allow for a small encroachment of a fireplace chimney permitted through zoning. Samantha Bateman described the design of the "FlexHouz" to include 1 single garage for the accessory suite and 1 double garage for the main portion of the dwelling. Furthermore, she stated the drawings labeled "Elevation A" for PICA 08120 for 1855 Rosebank Road, Lot 6 are in fact mirror images of what was submitted (refer to Exhibit 3 contained in PICA 08120 staff Report to the Committee of Adjustment dated February 12, 2020).

Meeting Minutes Wednesday, February 12, 2020 7:00 pm Council Chambers Written comments were received from a resident of Dencourt Drive in objection to the application. Samantha Bateman, agent with Marshall Homes, was present to represent the application. Victor Rudik, applicant, was also in attendance. Kim O'Reilly of Dencourt Drive and David Sanderson of Charnwood Court were present in opposition to the application PICA 09/20 located at 1855 Rosebank Road, Lot 8. No further representation was present in favour of or in objection to the application. In support of the application Samantha Bateman advised the property south of Lot 8 maintains the same built form and architectural design of what is purposed. Moreover the requested lot frontage of the property is similar to those in the neighbourhood with irregular lot shapes. Kim O'Rielly spoke in opposition to the application reiterating her submitted written comments. She stated she is unhappy with the submitted elevation drawings. Kim O'Rielly believes the proposed development is not compatible with the existing neighbourhood for the following reasons: • Existing dwellings in the neighbourhood have one driveway and front entrance to the dwelling, the proposed has two driveways and front entrances. This would increase the risk associated with additional vehicular use and storage, • The proposal results in a differing streetscape than the existing neighbourhood and is reducing greenspace in the community, • The 3-storey proposal is believed to be inconsistent with the neighbourhood that is mainly 2-storey dwellings which has a large impact on the existing streetscape, • Increased paving to accommodate additional driveway access of the proposal will result in increased drainage issues for the property and adjacent lands, • The proposal is designed to accommodate multi-generational living that is not the common built form and architectural design of the neighbourhood; and • The proposal advertises the dwellings to be over 4,000 square feet which would be some of the largest in the neighbourhood. A reduced design would allow for the by-law frontage requirements to be met. Prior to the Hearing, Samantha Bateman provided a letter responding to the concerns raised by Kim O'Rielly. The Committee Members and staff also received a copy of this letter. David Sanderson spoke in opposition to the application stating he believes it does not meet the four tests of the Planning Act where it is not "minor in nature" and "desirable for the appropriate development of the land". Page 11 of 16 Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes Wednesday, February 12, 2020 7:00 pm Council Chambers He noted two prior Ontario Municipal Board (0MB) Hearing cases that he believed to have similar concerns: March 28, 1989 (North York) and 1994 (Toronto). David Sanderson indicated the requested by-law variances would not be required if the drawings were revised and one dwelling removed to allow for additional space between lots. When asked about the square footage of the dwellings, Samantha Bateman stated they range from approximately 3,500 to 4,000 square feet, with the in-law suites approximately 600 square feet in compliance with the Ontario Building Code (OBC). She continued to describe the design of the "FlexHouz" as tailored to families with a dependent child, grandparent, accessible, and multi-generational living situation. Additionally, the frontage of Lot 8 is measured through the existing easement which is for access to the rear yard catch basin. In response to questions from the Committee Members, the Secretary-Treasurer stated the proposed, dwellings do comply with the zoning provisions for lot coverage. When questioned about current setbacks for existing dwellings in the neighbourhood, the Secretary-Treasurer indicated a detailed analysis has not been completed to comparatively evaluate the lots. When questioned by Committee Members about the possibility to convert the accessory suite into an "Airbnb" or rental unit, Samantha Bateman advised these dwellings are Freehold and it would be difficult for Marshall Homes to impose restrictions. In response to whether or not Marshall Homes would consider adding limitations through a list of their conditions on title, Samantha Bateman advised it could be taken under consideration and require review by their legal team. After listening to the comments and concerns addressed from two opposing parties, hearing the responses from the applicant, reviewing the staff Report and receiving additional information at the Hearing, Tom Copeland moved the following motion: Moved by Tom Copeland Seconded by Eric Newton That application PICA 09/20 by V.
