REPORT Planning Comments: The subject property located at 333 Manitou Driveis zoned Heavy Industrial(M-4), in the Zoning By-law th 85-1. City Planning staff conducted a site inspection of the property on August 9, 2018. The applicant is requesting relief from Section 680.7.7of the SignBy-law to permita billboard sign to be located 200 metres from another billboard sign,rather than the required separation distance of 300 metres. TheCommitteeof Adjustment previously approved Application A2010-002to legalize the reduced separation distance of 200 metres, however a special condition was added at that time of the decision which required,that the LED portion of the billboard sign shall not exceed 3.6576m by 2.7432m in size. The applicant has requested to increase the size of the LED portion to 6.3m by 2.7m, therefore the 2010 Committee of Adjustment decision is considered void, and theapplicant is re-applying for the separation distance variance. With the signs having previously being approved with the 200 metre separation distance, and given the location with a heavy industrial area, staff is supportive of allowing the signs to remain. Staffis also supportive of the increase in size of the LED portion as it is in compliance will all other applicable billboard sign regulations in the City’s Sign By-law.
