Discussion
2.1
Site-specific Zoning Application Won't Prejudice On-going City-Wide
Zoning Review of Two-Unit Houses
The City's Official Plan encourages a broad diversity of housing by form, location,
size, tenure, and cost within the neighbourhoods and villages of the City, so that
the housing needs of existing and future residents can be met as they evolve
overtime.
The City is in the process of completing a review Qf the Official Plan and
Zoning By-law to establish criteria and standards for sècond units. Until such
time as this review is complete it is appropriate that individual zoning
amendments for second dwelling units be considered on their own merits.
Approval of this application will not prejudice the City's second unit review
process.
2.2
Existing House will Continue to Appear as a Single Dwelling
This rezoning application was a result of a building inspection of an approved
building permit for a below grade entrance. Upon inspection, it was discovered
that a second dwelling unit existed. Upon being advised that a second unit was
not permitted, the applicant submitted a Zoning By-law Amendment Application.
The existing zoning of the lands is 'S3' - Single Detached Dwelling Residential
Zone, which permits one dwelling unit per lot. The introduction of a second
dwelling unit and associated construction within the existing dwelling, and its
impact on the established streetscape, was reviewed to ensure that the existing
dwelling will continue to appear as one dwelling.
The main dwelling will have two units, with no indication of the existence of a
second dwelling unit. The second unit can be accommodated within the building
without detection from outside thereby visually maintaining neighbourhood
character within the Brock Ridge Neighbourhood.
2.3
Existing Two-Car Driveway Provides Adequate Parking for Proposed
Additional Unit
The subject property currently supports two parking spaces in the existing
attached garage and two in the driveway.
Report PD 07-03
Date: January 24, 2003
Subject: Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 18/02
Page 4
Any increase in parking demand created by a second unit should be
accommodated on-site, but may require the dedicated use of the garage for
parking purposes.
It is recommended, that a minimum of three parking spaces be maintained on the
property at all times and that this requirement be established in the implementing
zoning by-law. With four parking spaces currently in place, the site has adequate
parking to accommodate the proposed second unit.
The attached by-law, included as Appendix I to this report, implements Staff's
recommendation to approve the establishment of a second dwelling unit in the
main dwelling.

Sandrea Barrett, applicant, advised that this application is to provide an
additional bedroom and separate entrance for her grown children.
3.
Penny Giraudy, 1620 McBrady Cres, stated that she purchased in a single family
development, paid extra to have more property and does not want to see
basement apartments legalized which could possibly cause decreased
assessment value. She has telephoned the by-law department about on-street
parking and will continue to do so. She further stated that 1626 McBrady Cres.
already had a three piece bathroom.
Dan Bates, 1625 McBrady Cres., advised that they bought based on green space
environment and schools. A second living unit in a home unfortunately causes
increased garbage which, if not picked up, is thrown elsewhere, Renters are not
concerned about the community and allowing basement apartments causes
stress on relationships with neighbours. He stated his opposition to any
additional basement apartments.
Pat Bates, 1625 McBrady Cres., stated her disappointment with what is
happening in her neighbourhood. Her concerns include increased traffic, value
of their home, break-ins and other community problems. She further stated her
concern that speaking out against basement apartments will cause ill feelings
with neighbours. She doesn't understand the process or how this situation
occurred.

purchased it. This apartment is only for their grown children when they come
home from university and when the stop work order was issued, they
immediately came in for a permit.

Re: Zoning Amendment Application - A18/02
Dear Mr. Taylor,
Weare writing to express that we are opposed to the proposal to change the existing zoning of 1626
McBrady Crescent to permit the establishment of a second unit in the main dwelling.
We have lived in our home on McBrady Crescent since purchasing it in 1987 when the subdivision was
originally developed. The key reasons for choosing our home were related to safety and neighbourhood
environment. We paid a premium for our lot with no plans of ever moving because we valued the location.
Over time we have seen the degradation of the neighbourhood. Because of this, our valued neighbours have
left or are planning to move as soon as possible. Basement apartments are largely to blame for this
problem. They tend to exist in this neighbourhood because people can not afford their homes. They fill the
main dwelling with extended family and ftiends, then they rent out the basement to whoever they can get.
They don't care about the neighbourhood, they simply need affordable housing. This neighbourhood has
become known for this and the current house values and new purchasers reflect this.
We have more than our fair share of people and basement apartments in this neighbourhood already. We
have observed that the large majority of people living in those basement apartments demonstrate a lack of
interest and care in our neighbourhood so there tends to be a increase in theft, litter, destruction of public
and private property, and civil disturbances. There have been many times where police had to be called to
houses on McBrady Crescent that have basement apartments. In one situation, neighbours had to deal with
young offenders, who stole property, threatened mothers and assaulted one of the fathers. Fortunately the
neighbourhood banded together to work with the Police and the Courts to expel the criminal element ftom
their basement apartment. We do not need the added worry of having to deal with yet another basement
apartment. If the City is trying to generalize the placement of basement apartments throughout Pickering
then new apartments in our neighborhood should be stopped until the rest of Pickering catches up to the
same density of units.
McBrady Crescent should be a premium location in this neighbourhood because of low traffic and low
population. The houses are spaced about 40' apart on average and there are no houses on the side of the
crescent facing Brock Road or Dellbrook Plaza. Also, where there are houses on the outside of the
crescent, there is no sidewalk. This means that under normal circumstances with single family residences
only, cars should not be parked on the road. The only traffic should be for those living or visiting here, thus
allowing children to play safely, they same as they would living on a court. The police said it should be
easy to keep the street safe because it is not a through street and we should be able to recognize unknown
people and vehicles. We can no longer do this because we don't even know who our neighbours are
because there are so many and they change so often.
On top of having to deal with negative experiences with uncaring tenants, we have also experienced stress
in our relationships with some neighbours who bring in basement apartments. An issue that we may have
with their tenants' behaviour becomes an issue with the landowner. As homeowners we must compromise
and get along with our neighbours. A single-family residence means that there should be only one family
ATTACHMENT' ¥ TO
REPORT # PO 07~()3
per home to deal with, and that they should have a vested interest in their property. That is the reason why
single family residences carry the highest premium of all home purchase options.
We believe that there will be only negative implications in pennitting more dwelling units to be added to
the existing houses in the neighbourhood. There does not seem to be any value to the neighbourhood for
allowing second units in single-family dwellings, instead there will be a decrease in our quality oflife and
the fmancial value of our property. The only benefit would be to the landlord in the form of rental income.
We did not purchase our home in the subdivision designed for mid-sized single-family residential
dwellings with the expectation that the City would then pennit changes that would significantly impact the
ability of residents to use and enjoy their property and the neighbourhood as designed in the original plan.
As per the specific situation with the home at 1626 McBrady Crescent, it is situated on the side of the street
that has a sidewalk and it faces Brock Road. The driveway is already full so there would not be room for
tenant vehicles. The applicant stated at the public meeting that her immediate neighbour at 1624 McBrady
Crescent has a basement apartment that requires cars to be parked on the road, and that she has had
problems with them. Both these homes have the same amount of parking space, yet the applicant appears to
have more family living in her home, so we don't see how she won't add to the parking problem. This
section of McBrady Crescent should have the least amount of traffic and parked vehicles and be the open
area for children to play.
The applicant applied for the rezoning after she had already installed the second dwelling without the
necessary approvals. As basement apartments are illegal in the City of Pickering we would like the City to
take the stance of all Municipalities included in Report No. 31-02 that boarder on Toronto and have the
homeowner remove the illegal unit. By-laws need to be enforced in order for them to have meaning and
deter illegal behaviour.
Please prove WTong our neighbours who say it is pointless to voice their opinion because the City will not
listen anyway, and even if the zoning is not approved that the applicant will still keep the apartment since
the By-laws won't be enforced. Please reward people for their efforts when they take the time and risk to
speak out.
We request that the City turn down the application for the zoning amendment that would allow a second
unit to be added to the main dwelling at 1626 McBrady Crescent.
Sincerely,
Dan & Pat Bates
