REPORT Planning Comments: The subject property located at 45 Maywood Road is zoned Residential Three Zone (R-3) in the Zoning By-law. The property is designated Low Rise Residential in the Official Plan. Staff conducted a site inspection of the property on October 31St, 2019. The applicant is requesting relief for a front yard setback of 8.42 metres rather than the required minimum front yard setback of 10.7 metres. The minimum required setback is calculated using the RIENS by-law requirements, which are based on the average setback of the adjacent homes. The applicant is seeking to cover and enclose an existing porch to improve ease of mobility. A covered porch with a height above 0.6 metres is subject to the minimum front yard setback requirement. A building permit has been applied for and is in process. vIcvv WI L-wwuIIy .NLc wa.wucI .J I ; w 1%71 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. General Intent of the Official Plan 1. The subject property is designated Low Rise Residential in the Official Plan. The Official Plan favours the mixing and integration of different forms of housing to achieve a low overall intensity of use. The requested variance to enclose the porch does not interfere with the general intent of the Official Plan. General Intent of the Zoning By-law 2. The intent of the regulation that bases a minimum and maximum front yard setback on the setbacks of the adjacent properties is to ensure that new developments and front yard additions do not disrupt the character of an established neighbouhood with a consistent street scape. The applicant is seeking to cover and enclose an existing porch, and staff does not consider this to be significant development or addition of living space. The proposal will not adversely impact the consistency of the building line of the surrounding neighbourhood. Therefore, the requested variance meets the general intent of the Zoning By-law. Is the Variance Appropriate? 3. The requested variance is appropriate, as covering and enclosing a porch is not considered an adverse impact to the character of the neighbourhood. Is the Variance Minor? 4. The reduction in front yard setback is minimal and the enclosed porch area will still maintain an adequate front yard setback. Therefore, the variance is considered minor. Building Comments: The Building Division has no objections to the proposed variance. Application has been made to for the new roof structure to the single detached dwelling and is currently under review Transportation Services Comments: Transportation Services have no concerns with the proposed application. Heritage Planning Comments: Heritage Planning staff has no concerns with this application. Environmental Planning Comments: No environmental planning concerns. RECOMMENDATION That minor variance application A2019-114 requesting permission construct a sunroom in the front yard of an existing single detached dwelling having a front yard setback of 8.42m rather than the required 10.7m be approved.
