Subject Property - 59 Irvin Street

subject property is described as a large L-shaped parcel with approximately 12.3 metres of
frontage onto Irvin Street, a depth of 61 metres for an area of 957 square metres. The subject
property is developed with a detached residential dwelling, built prior to 1924. The land use

designation is Low Rise Conservation 'B' in the Central Frederick Secondary Plan and is zoned
Residential Five (R-5) in the City's Zoning By-law 85-1. The intent of the Low Rise Conservation
- B designation is to retain the existing low rise, low density residential character of the
Neighbourhood. Surrounding land use consists primarily of low rise detached dwellings and a
mixture of commercial/residential uses. A site visit occurred on November 26, 2018.
The owner is proposing to sever the vacant rear half portion of 59 Irvin Street, measuring 20.7
metres wide, 31.2 metres long, with a lot area of 581.25 square metres, and add it as a lot addition
to an assemblage of land addressed municipally as 82 Weber Street East; 79, 83 and 87 Scott
Street; and 15, 25, and 29 Pearl Place - lands proposed to be re -developed with a comprehensive
mixed use development. According to the applicant, the lot addition is intended only to provide
additional land area that would be considered pervious for the purposes of storm water
management considerations, additional landscape open space area and to potentially
accommodate some minor expansion of parking area to be dealt with through the site
development.
The retained lands will measure 12.3 metres wide, 30.5 metres long for an area of 375 square
metres. The retained lands will contain the existing detached dwelling. The proposed retained
lot size complies with the R-5 zoning and the configuration is consistent with existing lotting fabric
present along a same side of Irvin Street towards Scott Street.
Lot Addition
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, the proposed lot addition will result in lot sizes that are appropriate and
suitable and are consistent with the surrounding lotting fabric, the retained lands front on an
established public street and the severed lands once added will front onto a public street.
Adequate utilities and municipal services are available.
Heritage Comments:
There are no heritage concerns with respect to the proposed severance, however Heritage
Planning staff note that the property municipally addressed as 59 Irvin Street is adjacent to 82
Weber Street East which is a listed property on the Municipal Heritage Register.
The Kitchener Cultural Heritage Landscape Study (CHLS) dated December 2014 and prepared
by The Landplan Collaborative Ltd. was approved by Council in 2015. The CHLS serves to
establish an inventory. The CHLS was the first step of a phased Cultural Heritage Landscape
(CHL) conservation process. The owner of the property municipally addressed as 59 Irvin Street
is advised that the property is located within the Central Frederick Neighbourhood CHL. The
owner and the publicwill be consulted as the City considers listing CHLs on the Municipal Heritage
Register, identifying CHLs in the Official Plan, and preparing action plans for each CHL with
specific conservation options.
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. Separate building permit(s) will be
required for the demolition of all existing buildings, as well as construction of all new buildings
