Planning Comments:
The subject property is designated Low Rise Residential in the City's 2014 Official Plan and
zoned Residential Four Zone (R-4) in Zoning By-law 85-1. The lands are currently developed
with a single detached dwelling. The existing development of the neighbourhood consists of a
mix of single detached dwellings, and semi-detached dwellings. Lot sizes vary in width, depth,
and area in this nieghbourhood.
The Owner is requesting permission to sever the subject lands into two lots with the intent to
develop the lands with a semi-detached dwelling. The severed lot would have a lot width of 6.8
metres, a depth of 40.2 metres, and an area of 273.4 square metres. The retained lot would
have a lot width of 7.5 metres, a depth of 40.2 metres, and an area of 301.5 square metres. In
addition, the Owner has submitted the following minor variance application:
A2018-069 — The owner is requesting relief from Section 38.2.2 of the Zoning By-law to allow
one semi-detached dwelling unit to have a minimum lot width of 6.8 metres rather than the
required 7.5 metres while the other semi-detached dwelling unit will provide a lot width of 7.5
metres

Consent Applications — B2018-054
With respect to the criteria for the subdivision of land listed in Section 51(24) of the Planning
Act, R.S.O. 1990, c.P.13, staff is satisfied that the creation of the severed lots are desirable and
appropriate. The uses of both the severed and retained parcels are in conformity with the City's
Official Plan and Zoning By-law. While the severed lands require a minor variance, Planning
staff is of the opinion that the size, dimension and shape of the proposed lot is suitable for the
use of the lands and compatible with the surrounding community. The lands front onto a public
street and full services are available.
The proposed lots conform to the 2014 Official Plan. Both the retained and severed lots reflect
the general scale and character of the established development pattern of surrounding lands.
Based on the foregoing, Planning staff recommends that Consent Application B2018-054,
requesting consent to sever the subject property into two lots to facilitate the development of a
semi-detached dwelling be approved, subject to the conditions listed in the Recommendation
section of this report.
Minor Variance Application — A2018-069
In considering the four tests for minor variances as outlined in Section 45(1) of the Planning Act,
R.S.O., 1990 Chap. P. 13, as amended, Planning staff offers the following comments:
1. The subject property is designated Low Rise Residential in both the City's 2014 Official
Plan and 1994 Official Plan. The 2014 Official Plan Designation is in effect, however a
significant number of Low Rise Residential policies from the 2014 Official Plan are under
3
appeal and therefore are not being relied upon for this report. Instead Low Rise Residential
Policy 3.1.2.1 from the 1994 Official Plan which allows for low density forms of housing
such as semi-detached dwellings is being relied upon to determine whether the proposed
variances meet the general intent of the Official Plan. It is planning staffs opinion that the
proposed variance meets the general intent of the Official Plan which encourages a range
of different forms of housing to achieve a low density neighbourhood. The minor change to
the lot width will maintain the low density character of the property and surrounding
neighbourhood, which is characterized by a variety of lot sizes and built form options. The
proposed variance conforms to the designation and it is the further opinion of staff that the
requested variance is appropriate.
2. The requested variance to permit a reduced lot widths of 6.8 metres whereas 7.5 metres is
required meets the general intent of the Zoning By-law. The purpose of the the minimum
7.5 metre lot width requirement is to ensure the lot is of adequate size to support a building
envelope and parking, as well as to provide adequate amenity space on site. The proposed
semi-detached dwelling meets all other zoning regulations with regards to setbacks,
parking, building height, lot coverage and the proposed lots provide a generous amount of
amenity space in the rear yard. As such, staff is satisfied the reduction of 0.7 metres in lot
width meet the general intent of the Zoning By-law.
3. The variance can be considered minor as the proposed semi-detached dwelling lot width
will not present any significant impacts to adjacent properties or the overall
neighbourhood. The proposed new semi-detached dwellings use will provide a new
housing form at a scale and density that is appropriate for the context of the existing
neighbourhood, which consists of single detached dwellings and semi-detached
dwellings.
4. The requested variance is appropriate for the development and use of the land. The
development of the property will be sympathetic to the surrounding area and bring a new
context -appropriate unit type to the neighbourhood.
Based on the foregoing, Planning staff recommends that these applications be approved,
subject to the conditions outlined below in the Recommendation section of this report.
Building Comments:
The Building Division has no objections to the proposed consent. Region of Waterloo and Area
Municipalities' Design Guidelines and Supplemental Specifications for Municipal Services
(DGSSMS) allows only one service per lot. Should a severance be approved, additional services
will be required for severed lot — a building permit will be required for this work. Separate building
permit(s) will also be required for the demolition of the existing building and construction of the new
building(s).
Heritage Comments:
No cultural heritage issues or concerns.
Environmental Planning Comments:
Standard tree retention Condition and standard tree protection condition of the Boulevard tree
would apply.
Transportation Services Comments:
Transportation Services have no concerns with the proposed application.
0
Engineering Comments:
• Severance of any blocks within the subject lands will require separate, individual service
connections for sanitary, storm, and water, in accordance with City policies. If the buildings
have basements and a sump pump is required, a storm outlet will be required also.
. The owner is required to make satisfactory financial arrangements with the Engineering
Division for the installation of new services that may be required to service this property, all prior
to severance approval. Our records indicate municipal water, storm and sanitary services are
currently available to service this property. Each severed lot will require a sanitary, a storm, and
a water service. Any further enquiries in this regard should be directed to Natasha Prepas-
Strobeck (519-741-2200 ext. 7136).
. Any new driveways are to be built to City of Kitchener standards. All work is at the owner's
expense and all work needs to be completed prior to occupancy of the building.

a digital submission of all AutoCAD drawings required for the site (Grading, Servicing etc.) with
the corresponding correct layer names and numbering system to the satisfaction of the
Engineering Division prior to severance approval.
The owner must ensure that the basement elevation of the building can be drained by gravity
to the street sewers. If this is not the case, then the owner would have to pump the sewage via
a pump and forcemain to the property line and have a gravity sewer from the property line to the
street.
Operations Comments:
A cash -in -lieu of land park dedication is required on the severed parcel only, in the amount
$3,128 as a new development lot will be created as result of the proposed severance. Parkland
dedication is calculated at 5% of the per metre lineal frontage land value for the severed portion.
