No further representation was present in favour of or in objection to the application. In response to questions from Committee Members, Peter Barton stated he has worked with City staff to determine the applicable zoning provisions that lead to a specific interpretation of the yards and required variances. He also indicated construction is scheduled to commence as soon as possible. In response to a question from a Committee Member, the Secretary -Treasurer read out the comments submitted by a resident of 640 Liverpool Road in support of the application. In response to a question from a Committee Member concerning the rear yard setback, Peter Barton responded by stating there will be usable area in the rear yard. Due to unusual shaped lot that leads to a specific interpretation of the yards, Denise Rundle moved the following motion: Moved by Denise Rundle Seconded by Tom Copeland That application P/CA 13/19 by R. & C. Racioppo, be Approved on the grounds that the requested variances are 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, subject to the following conditions: 1.

The Secretary -Treasurer outlined the staff recommendation from the City Development Department recommending approval subject to conditions. Written comments were also received from the City's Engineering Services Department stating it appears that the proposed deck will require tree removal and as such, compensation planting or cash -in -lieu might be required. Spencer Joy, agent, was present to represent the application. No further representation was present in favour of or in objection to the application. In response to questions from Committee Members, Spencer Joy stated the 0.1 of a metre setback of the shed from all lot lines would be sufficient enough to maintain the shed. He went on to advise that the shed is believed to be approximately 20 years old and was erected by the previous residents who were relatives of the current owners. Spencer Joy indicated the existing shed appears to be an older wooden barn -style design with asphalt shingles, sitting on a concrete slab that may be difficult to move. When asked about the discrepancy between the height of the proposed deck and the submitted plans, Spencer Joy stated the deck would not exceed 2. 5 metres in height. He also stated that tree compensation or cash -in -lieu will be evaluated at the building permit stage. Moved by Denise Rundle Seconded by Eric Newton That application P/CA 14/19 by R. Bernie & A.

Wong 1976 Royal Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, to permit a minimum north side yard width of 1.2 metres, whereas the by-law requires 1.8 metres. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to obtain a building permit to facilitate an addition to a 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 addition, asgenerally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibit 2, 3, & 4). 2. That the applicant obtain a building permit for the proposed construction by April 9, 2021, or this decision shall become null and void. Background A one -storey dwelling was constructed on the subject property in 1990. In 2015, a two-storey addition was constructed at the rear of the one -storey dwelling. The subject minor variance application is intended to facilitate a second -storey addition to the one -storey portion of the existing dwelling and a two-storey addition to a portion of the north side of the dwelling (refer to Exhibit 2). Report P/CA 15/19 April 10, 2019 9 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan — "Urban Residential Areas — Medium Density Area" — within the Village East Neighbourhood. Zoning By-law 3036, as amended — "R3" — One -Family Detached Dwelling Third Density Zone Appropriateness of the Application Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The property is designated "Urban Residential Areas — Medium Density Area" which permits residential uses. The requested variance is intended to facilitate a second -storey as well as a two-storey addition to a detached dwelling. 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 intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a minimum side yard depth of 1.8 metres is to provide an appropriate separation 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 to the lot. The reduced north side yard setback of 1.2 metres is requested for only a portion of the existing dwelling, approximately half of the length of the building. A north side yard ranging from 2.14 metres to 2.18 metres will be maintained for the rear portion of the dwelling. Adequate buffers between the proposed addition and structures on abutting properties will continue to be provided. Sufficient space will be maintained between the dwelling and the north side property line to accommodate pedestrian access, grading, drainage and residential services such as air conditioning units and utility meters. 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 The proposed 1.2 metres setback to facilitate an addition to an existing dwelling is desirable in maintaining the consistency of the residential nature of Royal Road. The street currently features a number of one and two-storey dwellings. As a result, facilitating a second -storey addition is appropriate development of the land. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. 10 Report PICA 15/19 April 10, 2019 Page 3 Minor in Nature Staff is of the opinion that a reduction in the north side yard to 1.2 metres is minor in nature as there will be minimal visual impact to the streetscape. In addition, the adjacent property nor the provision of residential services to the lot will be negatively impacted.

Gupta 1910 Pine Grove Avenue Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 6578/05 to permit a minimum west side yard width of 0.95 of a metre, whereas the by-law requires a minimum west side yard width of 1.0 metre, as approved by P/CA 08/18. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to complete construction of a 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 detached dwelling, as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (see Exhibit 2). 2. That the applicant revise their building permit for the proposed construction by April 9, 2020, or this decision shall become null and void. Background On February 14, 2018 the applicant submitted a minor variance application to the Committee of Adjustments to permit: • A minimum east side yard width of 1.2 metres; • A minimum west side yard width of 1.0 metre; and, • A maximum lot coverage of 33 percent. The requested variances were approved, however, there was a construction error that resulted in a minimum west side yard width of 0.95 of a metre, instead of the approved variance for 1.0 metre. The applicant has submitted this minor variance application to bring the constructed foundation into conformity with the Zoning By-law. 1 6Report P/CA 17/19 April 10, 2019 Page 2 Comment Official Plan and Zoning By-law Pickering Official Plan - "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Area" within the Highbush Neighbourhood Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 6578/05 — "A"- Rural Agricultural Area 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 the primary housing form within the Highbush Neighbourhood. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance to permit a minimum west side yard of 0.95 of a metre meets the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The intent of the minimum side yard requirement of the zoning by-law is to provide an appropriate separation between structures on abutting properties in order to maintain a pedestrian access. The requested west side yard setback of 0.95 of a metre is sufficient to provide adequate separation between dwellings and to maintain pedestrian access. The requested variance meets the general intent and purpose of Zoning By-law 3036. Desirable for the Appriopriate Development of the Land The Committee of Adjustment approved the applicant's previous application for a minimum west side yard width of 1.0 metre because the variance would result in construction of a dwelling that is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The applicant is requesting a further reduction of the required west side yard due to a construction error. By granting relief of 0.05 of a metre, the proposed construction is still appropriate development of the subject property. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance to permit a minimum west side yard of 0.95 of a metre is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature The request to recognize a construction error that extends into the required side yard setback by 0.05 of a metre is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the surrounding area, and therefore is considered minor in nature. Report PICA 17119 April 10, 2019 17 Page 3 Conclusion Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance to permit a minimum west side yard of 0.95 of a metre, is minor in nature, is desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintains the intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.

Background On August 15, 2016, Land Division Application LD 78/16 was conditionally approved by the Region of Durham Land Division Committee. Subsequently, P/CA 29/16 and P/CA 30/16 were approved by the City of Pickering Committee of Adjustment on June 1, 2016 to facilitate zoning compliance for the Land Division application. However, the applicant was unable to satisfy all the conditions of the Land Division application within the prescribed period of time and the decision lapsed on August 25, 2017. P/CA 29/16 and P/CA 30/16 became null and void as well as the conditions of approval were also not met. 22 Report P/CA 18/19 & P/CA 19/19 April 10, 2019 Page 3 On July 16, 2018, the Region of Durham Land Division Committee conditionally approved Land Division application LD 94/18 to sever a 1,965 square metre parcel of land and to retain a 1,967 square metre parcel for residential uses. LD 94/18 is identical to the lapsed Land Division application, LD 78/16. The minor variances that are the subject of this report are required to facilitate the approval of the current application to sever under LD 94/18 and are identical to those variances previously approved but lapsed under P/CA 29/16 and P/CA 30/16. Comments Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The properties are designated "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" which permits residential uses. The requested variance to permit a minimum lot frontage of 16.9 metres is intended to facilitate zoning compliance for the severed and retained parcels proposed under LD 94/18. The requested variances to permit a minimum side yard width of 1.5 metres and a maximum building height of 9.6 metres are requested to obtain building permits to construct detached dwellings on the proposed severed and retained parcels. The properties are located within the Rougemount Neighbourhood. The Official Plan policies state that new development along Rougemount Drive shall be encouraged to be compatible with the character of existing development. Given the low density residential nature of the street, facilitating the construction of two single detached dwellings is compatible development. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The properties are zoned "R3" — Third Density Residential Zone by Zoning By-law 3036, as amended by By-law 2912/88. The intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a minimum lot frontage of 18.0 metres is to ensure a usable lot size that is compatible with the neighbourhood. The proposed 16.9 metre lot frontages would be a minimal reduction from the 18.0 metre requirement. This frontage is generally consistent with the existing lot pattern established along Rougemount Drive. The reduced lot frontages would continue to provide a usable lot size as the lots have an increased lot depth of approximately 116.0 metres. The intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a minimum side yard width of 1.8 metres is to provide an appropriate separation between structures on abutting properties in order to maintain a pedestrian access, and to accommodate grading, drainage and residentialservices such as air conditioning units and utility meters. The proposed side yard width will provide an adequate separation between the dwelling and the property line to accommodate pedestrian access, grading, drainage and residential utility services. The proposed side yard width of a minimum of 1.5 metres will provide an appropriate setback and separation from abutting properties and will maintain the character of the existing neighbourhood. Report P/CA 18/19 & P/CA 19/19 April 10, 2019 23 Page 4 The intent of the zoning by-law requirement for a maximum building height of 9.0 metres is to minimize the visual impact of new buildings/development on the existing streetscape and ensure that new development is compatible with the surrounding residential neighbourhood. The existing height and built form along Rougemount Drive varies from one -storey to two-storey residential dwellings. The requested increase in height will not alter the character of the neighbourhood and will not have negative impact on the existing streetscape as the proposed dwelling locations are setback significantly from the street. Desirable for the Appriopriate Development of the Land Staff is of the opinion that facilitating the infill development of two residential lots along Rougemount Drive that maintain the existing character of the community is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Minor in Nature Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances are minor in nature as there will be minimal impact to the streetscape and that the existing character of the community is maintained. The deep lots allow for the dwellings to be setback substantially from the street which reduces potential massing effects. Conclusion Staff is of the opinion that the requested variances are considered minor in nature, appropriate development for the lands, and are in keeping with the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.

DATE: Mar. 19, 2Di 9 28 DICKERING 644 Report to Committee of Adjustment Application Number: P/CA 20/19 Date: April 10, 2019 From: Deborah Wylie, MCIP, RPP Principal Planner, Development Review Subject: Committee of Adjustment Application P/CA 20/19 K. Arndt & B. Greer 1954 Fairport Road Application The applicant requests relief from Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, to permit an accessory building (detached garage) with a maximum height of 6.7 metres, whereas the by-law states no accessory building shall exceed a height of 3.5 metres in any residential zone. The applicant requests approval of this variance in order to recognize an existing detached garage. 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 condition: 1. That this variance apply only to the existing accessory building (detached garage), as generally sited and outlined on the applicant's submitted plans (refer to Exhibit 3). Background In 2018 the Region of Durham Land Division Committee approved Land Division Application LD 141/18 to sever a parcel of land with an area of approximately 550 square metres from the rear of the subject property while retaining a parcel of approximately 980 square metres having frontage on Fairport Road (refer to Exhibit 2). The purpose of the application is to combine the severed parcel with the adjacent lands to the north, 1952 Fairport Road, to facilitate a future 25 lot residential common element condominium development of 1950 and 1952 Fairport Road. While Land Divison Application LD 141/18 was approved subject to conditions, the requested variance that is the subject of this Committee of Adjustment Application P/CA 20/19 is not required to facilitate the severance and is not a condition of approval of LD 141/18. Report PICA 20/19 April 10, 2019 29 Page 2 Comment Conforms to the Intent of the Official Plan The subject property is designated "Urban Residential Areas — Low Density Areas" within the City of Pickering's Official Plan. Detached dwellings are a permitted use within the designation and the primary housing form 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 permit detached garages in side or rear yards where appropriate. The immediate area along the west side of Fairport Road contains older detached dwellings on large lots. The adjacent property to the north also contains a detached garage in the rear yard. Along the east side of Fairport Road there are newer detached dwellings on smaller lots. The proposed variance will be in keeping with the character of the neighbourhood established along the west side of Fairport Road and within the intent of the Dunbarton Neighbourhood Development Guidelines. Conforms to the Intent of the Zoning By-law The subject property is zoned "R4" — Fourth Density Residential Zone within Zoning By-law 3036, as amended. Zoning By-law 3036, as amended, states that no accessory building shall exceed a height of 3.5 metres in any residential zone. The applicant is requesting a variance to permit an accessory building (detached garage) with a maximum height of 6.7 metres. The detached garage conforms to the required side and rear yard depth requirements of the "R4" Zone. The intent of the maximum accessory building height of 3.5 metres is to minimize the visual impact of accessory buildings on the streetscape and to ensure other yards on abutting properties are not significantly obstructed. The existing detached garage is not visible from Fairport Road and does not negatively affect the streetscape. Nor is the detached garage visible from the neighbouring yards located to the north and south of the subject property. Desirable for the Appropriate Development of the Land The subject property is of sufficient lot area and width to accommodate the existing accessory building (detached garage) in the rear yard. Minor in Nature The request to recognize an existing accessory building (detached garage) with a maximum height of 6.7 metres is considered minor in nature as it does not impact the Fairport Road streetscape, is not anticipated to have any significant impacts on the adjacent yards nor changes the character of the area. 30Report P/CA 20/19 April 10, 2019 Page 3 Conclusion Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance to permit an accessory building (detached garage) with a maximum height of 6.7 metres, is minor in nature, is desirable for the appropriate development of the land, and maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.
