Subject Property: 427 Old Chicopee Trail
Staff Report
Development Services Department
Background:
K"'""' NFR
wwwki tchenr. ca
On December 11, 2017, the Committee of Adjustment approved severance application B2017-
048 for 427 Old Chicopee Trail to sever a parcel of land having a width of 21.95m, a depth of
43.4m and an area of 928.84 sq.m. That application has been fully approved, creating the parcel
now municipally addressed as 441 Old Chicopee Trail. A single detached dwelling is now under
construction on the newly created lot.
Report:
The current application proposes to further sever 427 Old Chicopee Trail into two lots, each having
frontage and access onto Old Chicopee Trail. The existing single detached dwelling is proposed
to be removed, and two new single detached dwellings are proposed, one for the retained and
severed portions.
The existing property has a lot width of 43.62 metres (143.11 feet). The application proposes to
sever the lot roughly in half. The retained lands are proposed to have a lot width of 21.81 metres,
a lot depth of 42.76 metres, and a lot area of 909.20 square metres. The severed lot is proposed
to have a lot width of 21.81 metres, a lot depth of 43.07 metres and a lot area of 915.83 square
metres.
A site inspection as conducted on January 3, 2018.
Existing Single Detached Dwelling — 427 Old Chicopee Trail (multiple front views)
Planning Comments:
The subject property is designated as Low Rise Residential in the City's Official Plan and zoned
as Residential Three (R-3) in the Zoning By-law.
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, Planning staff is of the opinion that the proposed severance conforms to
the City's Official Plan and will allow for orderly development that is appropriate.
Low Rise Residential and Housing objectives and policies that are in effect were considered for
this application. The Official Plan supports an appropriate range, variety and mix of housing types
and styles, densities, tenure and affordability to satisfy the varying housing needs of our
Staff Report

community through all stages of life. The City favours a land use pattern which mixes and
disperses a full range of housing types and styles both across the city as a whole and within
neighbourhoods. Low Rise Residential Districts shall accommodate a full range of housing types.
In these districts the City favours the mixing and integration of different forms of housing to
achieve a low overall intensity of use. The severed and retained lots are proposed to each be
developed with a single detached dwelling, a permitted residential use.
The severed and retained lots comply with the regulations of the Residential Three (R-3) zone
and is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and conforms to the Growth Plan for the
Greater Golden Horseshoe. The proposed lots and proposed land use is compatible with the
existing surrounding community. A Demolition Control Exemption approval will be required prior
to the issuance of a Building Permit for new construction.
Based on the foregoing, Planning staff recommends that Consent Application B2019-001
requesting to sever the existing property into two lots, subject to the conditions outlined 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. Separate building permits will be required for the
demolition of all existing buildings, as well as construction of all new residential buildings.
Transportation Comments:
As per the City of Kitchener's Official Plan, a road widening is required along Old Chicopee Trail
(Daimler Drive to Fairway Road) for the severed portion frontage along Old Chicopee Trail. A
reference plan will be required in order to obtain an exact road widening conveyance and any costs
will be the responsibility of the Owner.
Due to the road widening that is required, the Engineering Department will require a Phase 1 and
maybe a Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for that portion of land that is to be
conveyed to the City and any costs will be the responsibility of the Owner.
Funds for a future concrete sidewalk shall be provided to the City's Engineering Department for the
severed parcel.
Heritage Comments:
Heritage Planning Staff has reviewed the application and has no concerns.
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. The City's records indicate sanitary, storm and water municipal services are currently
available to service this property.
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 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 park land dedication will be required on the severed parcel as new development
lots will be created. The cash -in -lieu dedication required is $10,032.60.
Park Dedication is calculated at 5% of the new development lot only, with a land valuation
calculated by the lineal frontage (21.81 m) at a land value of $9,200 per frontage metre.
Environmental Planning Comments:
The City's standard tree protection condition is required as a condition of approval, for both the
severed and retained lands. A Tree Preservation/Enhancement Plan is required for the severed
and retained lands in accordance with the City's Tree Management Policy, which must be
submitted and approved before any building permit is issued.
RECOMMENDATION:
That Application B2019-001 proposing to sever a lot with a width of 21.81 metres, a lot
depth of 43.07 metres and a lot area of 915.83 square metres, be approved subject to the
following conditions:
