Spicer 1488 Old Forest Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036 to permit a minimum flankage yard setback of 1.3 metres, whereas the by-law requires a minimum flankage yard setback of 4.5 metres. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building.permit for an addition to an existing detached dwelling. Recommendation The City Development Department considers a minimum flankage yard setback of 1.3 metres 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 addition, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's-submitted plans. 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by October 4, 2019, or this decision shall become null and void. 3. That the May 10, 2017 decision of the Committee of Adjustment regarding Minor Variance Application P/CA 14/17 become null and void. Background In February 1997, the Committee of Adjustment approved Minor Variance Application P/CA 06/97, which recognized a minimum flankage side yard width of 1.6 metres to the existing one-storey detached dwelling. City staff supported the variance to recognize the reduced flankage yard width due to the presence of large trees along the south property line, which act as•a buffer between the dwelling and the street. 46 Report P/CA 91/17 October 4, 2017 Page 2 On May 10, 2017, the Committee of Adjustment approved Minor Variance Application P/CA 14/17, which allowed for a minimum flankage yard setback of 1.2 metres, in order to facilitate the construction of a new detached dwelling. It was determined by City Staff that the proposed construction would impact seven trees located on the municipal boulevard. As a condition of approval, the applicant was required to;provide compensation for the seven boulevard trees impacted. Following the approval of Minor Variance Application P/CA 14/17, the applicant submitted a revised concept plan. The revised plan proposes an addition to the existing dwelling at 1488 Old Forest Road rather than the construction of a new two-storey dwelling,.which was originally proposed through Minor Variance Application P/CA 14/17. The proposed construction is sited differently on the subject site, therefore a new Minor Variance Application is required. Comment ,Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan —. "Urban Residential — Low Density Areas" within the Woodlands Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 3036 — "R4"— Fourth Density Residential Zone Appropriateness of the Application • the'intent of a minimum flankage yard setback 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 adjacent street • the Zoning By-law requires a minimum flankage yard setback of 4.5 metres • the applicant has requested a reduction in the minimum flankage yard setback from 4.5 metres to 1.3 metres to accommodate an addition to an existing detached dwelling • there are a significant number of mature trees located on the subject property and within the municipal boulevard, particularly along the south lot line the proposed construction will not result in a negative impact on the matured trees along the south property line • the proposed,flankage yard setback of 1.3 metres will maintain the character of the existing residential community as other.properties along Old Forest Road have been approved to have a minimum flankage yard setback of 1.2 metres • the proposed two-storey dwelling will be sufficiently screened by the existing trees along the south property line • the requested variance is minor in nature, desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintains the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Report P/CA 91/17 October 4, 2017 47 Page 3 Input From Other Sources Engineering Services no comments on the. application Date of report: September 27, 2017 Comments prepared by: Co y Morris Deborah Wylie, MCIP, RPP Pla er I Principal Planner— Development Review CM:jc J:\Documents\DevelopmenAD-3700\20171PCA 91-1TReport ' Attachments Exhibit 1 z T-FF- XWOOD TRAIL m m z ❑ Q PINEVIEW LANE Y Z Q m W O SUBJECT, PROPERTY SHEPPARD AVENUE ❑ m U U W 010 U Z ❑ O Q O Y Q m w ' U O � w F- U Zg ti D S W a O w O 011 0 0 Q O W O = J � ❑ J ❑ LL Location Ma File: P/CA 91/17 PICKERING plicant:C. & J.
