'�.14 ' REPORT NtJMBER 30-00 Dalc: Junc 2, 20D0
SubJecti Minor Varianca Application P/CA 2N00 Pagc 2
BACKGROUND: ;jf .
;��� � �
His o
Mt 0'Brien submitted a minor varianr.e application for approval in order to obtain a building
pcnnit to construct a deck attached to fhe rear of the existing dweliing on the subject propMy.
Thc subjxt propcvty is Iceatr! oii the south side of Tutra Drivc (1329), and east of
Naroch Boulevazd. A properry locatson map and plen identiCying thc subject property for which
the variences werc requested arc enclosed (See Attachments Hl  respectivcly),
A repo�t was prepared by ihe Planning & Development Department recommending that the
requcsted reduced rear yurd depth variance to allow n proposed deck structuro to be constructed
was wnsidered minor in naturc•, desirable for the approprinte development of the land, and in
keeping with the general purpose and intent of the Oflicial Plan and Zoning By-law, and
thereforo recommended tha: the requested variance be npproved subjcet to conditions
(See Attachment #3).
Mr. 0'Brien noted, at thc Mey 3, 2000 Committec Meeting, that due to Iimitalians in his
mobility, that the proposed deck would provide an accessible, uscable outdoor amenity arca for
his personal use. Mr. 0'Brien strongly opposed thc necd for n variance and to the entire minor
variance process, and asked the Committec if he could be reimbutsed for the application fee. M
excerpt of the minutcs of thc May 3, 2000 Commiuec Mceling is encloxed (Sea Attnchmcnt H4).
The Committee of Adjustment unanimously approved Mr. O'Brien's application, subject to
condilions, and a furiher motion was subscquently cnrricd asking thnt Council consider the
appropriatencss of waiving or reducing the upplication fce incurred by Mr. 0'Brien. A copy of
tha Committee's decision respecting this application is enclosed (Sec Attachment NS).
Discussion
The S350.00 application fee charged to Mr. 0'Bricn is established by Council, nnd assists to
ofiset the processing costs incurred by the Ciry in proccssing the npplicatian, including smff time,
materials and postage. It is only in unique cireumstances (i.e, processing ertor, applications only
partially processed) that refunds have been grnntcd in the past. Although some minor variance
requests nppenr to be quite insignificant and straightConvard, all requests are required to be
processed and considered in the same manner.
'Che subject npplication is not unique, warranting any special considerntions respecting fee
adjustments, was processed in a rypical manner, and was considered and epprovecl by the
Committee of Adjustmrnt. Tha Planning and Development Department cannot find justification
to waRant suppart of the refund request, and thereforo recommends that the request to rcfund the
5350.00 applicatian fee Cor minor variance application P/CA 20/00 be rofused.
