REPORT
Planning Comments:
The subject property is zoned Residential Four Zone (R-4) in the Zoning By-law and designated
Low Rise Residential in the City's 2014 Official Plan. The lands are currently being developed
with a semi-detached dwelling. The existing development of the neighbourhood consists of a
mix of single detached dwellings and multiple dwellings. Lot sizes vary in width, depth, and area
in this neighborhood.
The Owner is requesting permission to sever the subject lands into two lots to allow separate
ownership of each semi-detached unit. The severed lot would have a lot width of 8.39 metres, a
depth of 40.23 metres, and an area of 337 square metres. The retained lot would have a lot
width of 8.39 metres, a depth of 40.23 metres, and an area of 337 square metres.

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. Planning staff is of the opinion that the size, dimension and
shape of the proposed lots are 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 B2018-115,
requesting consent to sever the subject property into two lots to allow separate ownership of
each semi-detached unit be approved, subject to the conditions listed 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.
Heritage Comments:
No cultural heritage issues or concerns.
Environmental Planning Comments:
No environmental planning concerns as the existing dwelling has been demolished and the
semi-detached dwelling is under construction.
Transportation Services Comments:
Transportation Services have no concerns with the proposed application.
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.
The owner is required to make satisfactory financial arrangements with the Engineering Division
for the installation of new ones that may be required to service this property, all prior to
severance approval. Our records indicate sanitary, storm and water municipal services are
currently available to service this property. Any further enquiries in this regard should be
directed to Jason Brule (519-741-2200 ext. 7419).
It is noted that this property is located in the Montgomery -Freeport Sanitary Drainage
Area. There is currently a development freeze in this area until the final phase of the
Freeport Sanitary Pumping Station is complete. Engineering will not approve any Off -
Site Works applications for this site until the pumping station works are complete.
Anticipated timing for this is end of year 2018.
Any new driveways are to be built to City of Kitchener standards. All works is at the owner's
expense and all work needs to be completed prior to occupancy of the building.
3
A servicing plan showing outlets to the municipal servicing system and proposed easements will
be required to the satisfaction of the Engineering Division prior to severance approval.
A Development Asset Drawing (digital AutoCAD) is required for the site (servicing, SWM etc.)
with corresponding layer names and asset information 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 having 8.394 lineal
metres frontage, in the amount $3,861.24 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 parcel.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Application B2018-115 requesting consent to sever the subject property into two lots be
approved, subject to the following conditions:
1. That the Owner shall obtain a tax certificate from the City of Kitchener to verify that
there are no outstanding taxes on the subject property(ies) to the satisfaction of the
City's Revenue Division;
2. That the owner pay to the City of Kitchener a cash -in -lieu contribution for park
dedication on the severed parcel equal in the amount of $3,861.24. The park land
dedication is calculated at the residential rate of 5% of the per metre lineal frontage land
value for the severed portion.
3. That the owner provide a digital file of the deposited reference plan(s) prepared by an
Ontario Land Surveyor in .dwg (AutoCad) or Agn (Microstation) format, as well as one
full size paper copy of the plan(s). The digital file needs to be submitted according to
the City of Kitchener's Digital Submission Standards to the satisfaction of the City's
Mapping Technologist.
4. That the Owner make financial arrangements to the satisfaction of the City's
Engineering Division for the installation of any new service connections to the severed
and/or retained lands.
5. That any new driveways be built to City of Kitchener standards at the Owner's expense
prior to occupancy of the building to the satisfaction of the City's Engineering Division.
6. That the Owner provide a servicing plan showing outlets to the municipal servicing
system to the satisfaction of the Director of Engineering Services.
7. That the Owner submit a complete Development and Reconstruction As -Recorded
Tracking Form (as per the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) S. 3150) together
with 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 Director of Engineering Services.
8. That the Owner provides Engineering staff with confirmation that the basement
elevation 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 to the satisfaction of the
Director of Engineering Services.
9. That, prior to final approval, the applicant submits the Consent Application Review Fee
of $350.00 to the Region of Waterloo.
