Carried Unanimously Date Chair Assistant Secretary -Treasurer Page 8 of 8 C}y oh DICKERING Report to 9 Committee of Adjustment Application Number: P/CA 11/19 Date: March 13, 2019 From:. Deborah Wylie, MCIP, RPP Principal Planner, Development Review Subject: Committee of Adjustment Application P/CA 11/19 P. Duffield , 1825 Fairport Road Application • The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, to permit a minimum north side yard width of 1.6 metres and a minimum south side yard width of 1.2 metres; whereas the by-law requires a minimum side yard width of 1.8 metres, where a garage is erected as part of a detached dwelling. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit to construct a two-storey detached dwelling. 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 conditions: 1. That this variance apply only to the proposed detached dwelling, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibits 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by March 12, 2021, or this decision shall become null and void. Background The applicant initially submitted their application to request relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, to permit a minimum side yard width of 1.2 metres on both sides; whereas the by-law requires a minimum side yard width of 1.8 metres. Notice of Public Hearing for the requested variance was mailed on February 27, 2019. Through discussions with City staff, the applicant has agreed to revise their proposal to request a minimum north side yard width of 1.6 metres and a south side yard width of 1.2 metres. As the revised request is to allow for a lesser variance than was initially applied for, no new notice was required to be sent out. 10Report P/CA 11/19 March 13, 2019 Page 2 Previous Approval Minor Variance Application P/CA 45/69 was approved for the subject lands in 1969, to permit the creation of a lot with a minimum lot frontage of 15.0 metres; whereas the by-law requires a minimum lot frontage of 18.0 metres. Comment Appropriateness of the Application Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The Official Plan designates the majority of the subject property "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" and a small portion of the rear of the property "Open Space System — Natural Areas" within the Dunbarton Neighbourhood. Development on the property is subject to the Dunbarton Neighbourhood Development Guidelines. The Official Plan contains policies pertaining to protecting and enhancing the character of established neighbourhoods by considering such matters as height, yard setbacks, lot coverage, access to sunlight and the context of existing adjacent buildings. The Dunbarton Neighbourhood Development Guidelines requires properties fronting Fairport Road, south of the Dunbarton Creek (including the subject property) to maintain larger lot depths and building setbacks. Specifically, minimum side yard widths shall be 1.5 metres, The immediate area along Fairport Road contains an eclectic mix of newer development and older detached dwellings. The lands to the north of the subject property, contain Tots with generous lot depths and lot frontages of 15.0 metres or greater. Dwellings on those lots largely maintain minimum side yard widths of 1.5 metres or greater, with the exception of two Tots where variances were approved for side yard widths of 1.4 metres on one side. Immediately south of the subject property, on the east side of Fairport Road, is a detached dwelling fronting Fairport Road (1823 Fairport Road) and a residential common element condominium development (known as 1815 Fairport Road), consisting of 31 detached dwellings fronting onto a private road. 1823 Fairport Road was developed concurrently with the condominium development and has a reduced front yard depth, increased lot coverage and side yard widths of 1.5 metres on both sides. The northernmost dwelling within 1815 Fairport Road (Unit 4) is located behind 1823 Fairport Road and also abuts the side yard of the subject property. 1815 Fairport Road, Unit 4 has a side yard width of 1.25 metres. The proposed south side yard width of 1.2 metres and north side yard width of 1.6 metres will create a transition between the compact urban form of the development to the south, and the more generous lot sizes and yard setbacks of the Tots fronting onto Fairport Road to the north. The proposed dwelling will maintain a generous front yard depth of 31.2 metres, rear yard depth of 71.3 metres, a lot coverage of 10.5 percent and a height of 9.2 metres at the front of the dwelling. Report P/CA 11/19 March 13, 2019 11 Page 3 The proposed variance will be in keeping with the character of the neighbourhood and with the intent of the Dunbarton Neighbourhood Development Guidelines. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Official plan. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The subject property is zoned "R3" — One Family Detached Dwelling Third Density Zone within Zoning By-law 3036, as amended. The intent of a minimum side yard width requirement is to provide an appropriate separation distance between structures on abutting properties in order to ensure compatibility with the existing neighbourhood, provide appropriate pedestrian access between dwellings, and to accommodate grading, drainage and residential services. The applicant is requesting a variance to permit a minimum north side yard width of 1.6 metres and a minimum south side yard width of 12 metres on a property with a lot frontage of 15.2 metres. The "R3" Zone requires a minimum side yard width of 1.8 metres on both sides, and a lot frontage of 18 metres. Other zones in Zoning By-law 3036 which require minimum lot frontages of 15 metres, require minimum side yard widths of 1.5 metres. A reduced north side yard width of 1.6 metres is in keeping with comparable zone provisions in Zoning By-law 3036. The proposed side .yard width of 1.2 metres is in keeping with the abutting properties to the south. Both requested side yards will provide appropriate pedestrian access between dwellings to accommodate grading, drainage and residential services. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Desirable for the Appriopriate Development of the Land With a building height of 8.0 metres and side yard width of 1.25 metres, the adjacent dwelling to the south, 1815 Fairport Road, Unit 4, creates a substantial visual impact next to the existing one -storey detached dwelling located on the subject property. The proposed dwelling will be located partially adjacent to 1815 Fairport Road, Unit 4 and will mitigate the visual impact of Unit 4 on the subject property. The applicant has indicated that the proposed north side yard width of 1.6 metres is required to accommodate a breezeway and vehicular access to the garage located at the rear of the dwelling. A side yard depth of 1.6 metres will allow the garage to be located at the rear of the dwelling, reducing the visual prominence of the garage on the streetscape. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature The proposed south side yard width of 1.2 metres will abut the side yard of 1815 Fairport Road, Unit 4, and a portion of the rear yard of 1823 Fairport Road. The lands to the south have a compact urban form with substantially reduced yard setbacks. The proposed south side yard width of 1.2 metres is not anticipated to have any significant impact on the lands to the south. 1 2Report P/CA 11/19 March 13, 2019 Page 4 The proposed north side yard width of 1.6 metres will abut the rear yard of 1827 Fairport Road. The north facade of the proposed dwelling will be articulated in such a way that only a portion of the dwelling will have a 1.6 metres side yard width. Approximately one-third of the north facade is set back an additional 3.2 metres. This articulation will reduce the massing and visual impact on the adjacent property to the north. The proposed north side yard width of 1.6 metres is not anticipated to have any significant impact on the lands to the north. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Staff is of the opinion that 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.

Cummins 528 Laurier Crescent Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 1289/81 to: • permit a minimum rear yard depth of 4.6 metres, whereas the by-law requires a minimum rear yard depth of 7.5 metres • permit a total lot coverage of 8 percent for all accessory buildings, whereas the by-law requires a total lot coverage of all accessory buildings shall not exceed 5 percent of the lot area • permit accessory buildings which are not part of the main building shall be erected in the side and rear yards, whereas the by-law requires all accessory buildings which are not part of the main building shall be erected in the rear yard The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to obtain a building permit for a proposed covered gazebo and walkway and to bring existing accessory structures (pool house and shed) into conformity with the Zoning By-law. 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 proposed covered gazebo, proposed walkway, and existing accessory structures, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibit 3, 4 & 5). That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by March 12, 2021, or this decision shall become null and void. 2 0 Report P/CA 12/19 March 13, 2019 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Area" within the Amberlea Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 1289/81 — "S1" - Single Detached Dwelling Appropriateness of the Application Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The subject property is designated as Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas within the City of Pickering's Official Plan. Detached dwellings are a permitted use within the designation and one of the primary housing forms within the Amberlea Neighbourhood. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances to reduce the rear yard setback, increase the total lot coverage by accessory structures and to recognize existing accessory structures in the side yards meets the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The applicant is proposing to replace an existing deck with a covered walkway to a covered gazebo. The proposed walkway and gazebo will result in a reduced rear yard setback and increased accessory structure lot coverage. In addition, the applicant is bringing existing accessory structures (pool house and shed) into conformity with the Zoning By-law. The intent of the minimum rear yard setback requirement is to ensure that adequate amenity space is maintained. The requested rear yard setback of 4.6 metres will not deplete the amenity space for the subject property, as there is sufficient amenity area surrounding the proposed gazebo and walkway. Staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. The intent of the maximum accessory structure lot coverage requirement is to maintain an appropriate amount of landscaped space uncovered by buildings on a lot. With a proposed lot coverage of 8 percent for accessory structures and a total lot coverage of 27.7 percent for all buildings and structures, the total lot coverage is below the maximum lot coverage permitted for the entire lot. Staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law The intent of restricting accessory structures to the rear yard is to maintain an adequate side yard setback and maintain the character of the neighbourhood. Since the accessory structures in the side yards are existing and an adequate side yard setback is maintained, staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Report P/CA 12/19 March 13, 2019 21 Page 3 Desirable for the Appropriate Development of the Land By constructing a covered walkway and gazebo, there will be no negative impacts on the privacy of the neighbouring properties, nor will it result in deficient amenity space on the subject lands. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed covered gazebo and,walkway extending into the required rear yard setback is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature The request to construct a covered gazebo and walkway that extends into the required rear yard setback is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the surrounding area, and therefore is considered minor in nature. In addition, recognizing existing accessory structures (pool house and shed) in the side yard setback is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the surrounding area, and therefore is considered minor in nature. Conclusion Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances to permit the construction of a covered gazebo and walkway, and to recognize existing accessory structures (pool house and shed) in the side yards, are desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintain the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. Input From Other Sources Engineering Services • The proposed changes will result in increase in impervious area that will increase storm runoff. As this may adversely impact the -downstream storm system, the applicant will be required to implement low impact development (LID) measures to promote evapotranspiration and/or infiltration.

Racioppo 660 Liverpool Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 2511, as amended by By-law 7610/18 to. permit: • a minimum rear yard depth of 4.1 metres, whereas the by-law requires 7.5 metres a minimum flankage yard width of 4.5 metres where the main front entrance is facing the flankage yard, whereas the by-law requires 7.5 metres The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to obtain a building permit to construct a new two-storey dwelling. 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 dwelling, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibits 2 & 3). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by March 12, 2021, or this decision shall become null and void. Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan = "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" — within the Bay Ridges Neighbourhood. Zoning By-law 2511, as amended by By-law 7610/18 — "R4" — One -Family Detached Dwelling Fourth Density Zone 28Report P/CA 13/19 March 13, 2019 Page 2 Appropriateness of the Application Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The property is designated "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" which permits residential uses. The requested variance is intended to facilitate the construction of a two-storey detached dwelling. The subject lands are further identified as being within the Liverpool Road Corridor in the Waterfront Node of the Bay Ridges Neighbourhood. Official Plan policies restrict permissible uses in the Liverpool Road Corridor to retailing of goods and services, restaurants, offices, and community, cultural and recreational uses, to serve the tourist, recreation, boating and other community needs, as well as residential uses. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances meet the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a minimum rear yard depth of 7.5 metres is to ensure that a useable amenity space is provided in the rear yard. As determined by thezoning by-law provisions, the rear yard of this property is the yard abutting the westerly lot line, despite having the main wall and access to the dwelling front onto Annland Street. For corner lots, the zoning by-law requires the shortest lot line abutting a road is to be the front lot line (easterly lot line) and the lot line opposite (westerly lot line) is the rear lot line. The lot line abutting Annland Street is the flankage lot line. The applicant proposed a rear yard setback of 4.1 metres to accommodate an attached garage. Only 6.7 metres of the 13.3 metre length of the dwelling is set back 4.1 metres from the rear property line. The remaining 6.6 metres of the dwelling is set back at least 7.6 metres from the rear property line. As a result, sufficient useable amenity space is maintained in the rear yard of the property. The intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a flankage side yard of 7.5 metres where the main front entrance is facing the flankage yard is to provide an adequate separation distance between buildings and street activity, and to provide an adequate landscaped area and parking space at the front of the dwelling. For this lot the flankage yard width of 4.5 metres allows the front face of the dwelling to be consistent with dwellings west of the property. Adequate separation between buildings and street activity will be provided, as well as space for landscaping and parking at the front of the dwelling. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances meet the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Report P/CA 13/19 March 13, 2019 29 Page 3 Desirable for the Appriopriate Development of the Land The proposed dwelling is consistent with the existing Official Plan designation and zoning. The residential nature of the immediate surrounding area suggests that maintaining a residential use at the subject property is desirable and the appropriate development of this land. ' Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature The proposed dwelling is adequately buffered from neighbouring structures. There is a 4.2 metre separation maintained from the rear of the subject dwelling and the neighbouring dwelling to the west. Additionally, a 4.5 metre flankage yard setback is consistent with the front yard setback of the neighbouring properties to maintain a consistent facade. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances are minor in nature.

Bernie & A. Rose 226 Wilcroft Court Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 2964/88 to permit: • an uncovered deck not exceeding 2.5 metres in height and not projecting more than 4.1 metres into the required rear yard, whereas the by-law requires uncovered steps and platforms not exceeding 1.0 metres in height may project a maximum of 1.5 metres into the required rear yard • an existing shed greater than 10 square metres in area to be set back a minimum of 0.1 of a metre from all lot lines The applicant requests approval of these variances in order to obtain a building permit for a proposed uncovered deck and recognize an existing shed. Recommendation The City Development Department considers the 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 proposed uncovered deck and existing shed, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibits 2 & 3). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by March 12, 2021, or this decision shall become null and void. Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" within the Highbush Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 2964/88, as amended by By-law 3036 — "S4" 34Report P/CA 14/19 March 13, 2019 Page 2 Appropriateness of the Application Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The subject property is designated as Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas within the City of Pickering's Official Plan. Detached dwellings are a permitted use within the designation and primarily on large lots within the Highbush Neighbourhood. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances to permit a deck not exceeding 2.5 metres in height which projects not more than 4.1 metres into the required rear yard, and to recognize an existing shed with a setback of 0.1 of a metre from all lot lines meets the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The applicant is proposing to replace an existing deck that has steps along the rear of the house that are very steep. By reconstructing the deck, the applicant is able to increase the size of the deck and provide steps in a safer and more suitable location. The intent of the maximum uncovered steps and platform height of 1.0 metre is to protect the privacy of abutting properties. The neighbouring property to the south has an existing deck greater than 1.0 metre in height. In addition, the existing deck on the property is greater than 1.0 metre in height. As there is significant slope in the rear yard from the back wall of the house to the rear lot line, a greater height is required to provide access from the deck to the rear door. Staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. The intent of the minimum rear yard setback requirement is to ensure that adequate amenity space is maintained. The requested rear yard setback of 4.1 metres will not deplete the amenity space for the subject property, as there is sufficient amenity area north of the proposed deck. Staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. The applicant has an existing shed constructed a minimum of 0.1 of a metre from the rear and side lot lines. The intent of setbacks from lot lines is to ensure that adequate space is available for maintenance, to ensure that the eaves/overhangs do not encroach on the adjacent properties, ensure roof drainage stays on the subject property and to minimize the visual impact that their location may have on adjacent properties. There is an adequate space for maintenance of the shed and the roof does not encroach the adjacent properties. In addition, the roof drainage stays on the subject property. The neighbouring property to the south also has constructed a shed less than a metre from the required side yard, therefore the location of this shed does not impact the adjacent landowner. Staff is of the opinion that the variance meets the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Desirable for the Appriopriate Development of the Land The existing deck that is proposed to be replaced has a height greater than 1.0 metre and projects more than 1.5 metres into the required rear yard. Neighbouring properties appear to also have constructed decks greater than 1.0 metre in height due to the increased slope from the back wall of the house to the rear lot line. Report P/CA 14/19 March 13, 2019 35 Page 3 Staff is of the opinion thatthe requested variances to permit a deck not exceeding 2.5 metres in height which projects not more than 4.1 metres into the required rear yard, and to recognize an existing shed with a setback of 0A of a metre from all lot lines is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature The request to reconstruct an uncovered deck that extends into the required rear yard setback and is greater than 1.0 metre in height, is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the surrounding area and therefore, is considered minor in nature. In addition, recognizing existing accessory structures constructed less than a metre from the lot lines is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the surrounding area, and therefore is considered minor in nature. Conclusion Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance to permit the reconstruction of a deck, and recognize an existing shed constructed a minimum of 0.1 of a metre from the lot lines, is desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintains the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.
