The single detached dwelling on the property will be demolished and the applicant proposes to construct a semi-detached dwelling on the severed and retained lands. The existing development of the neighbourhood consists of a mix of single detached dwellings, semi-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 build a semi- detached dwelling. The severed lot would have a lot width of 7.83 metres, a depth of 40.32 metres, and an area of 315.89 square metres. The retained lot would have a lot width of 7.83 metres, a depth of 40.32 metres, and an area of 315.89 square metres. City Planning staff conducted a site inspection of the property on November 27, 2020.
