Recommendation The GRCA has no objection to the proposed minor variance application. GRCA Comments GRCA has reviewed this application under the Mandatory Programs and Services Regulation (Ontario Regulation 686/21), including acting on behalf of the Province regarding natural hazards identified in Section 5.2 of the Provincial Planning Statement (PPS, 2024), as a regulatory authority under Ontario Regulation 41/24, and as a public body under the Planning Act as per our CA Board approved policies. Information currently available at this office indicates that the subject property is within the regulated allowance adjacent to the floodplain associated with Schneider Creek. A copy of GRCA's resource mapping is attached. Due to the presence of the above -noted features, most of the subject property is regulated by the GRCA under Ontario Regulation 41/24 — Prohibited Activities, Exemptions and Permits Regulation. Any future development or other alteration within the regulated area will require prior written approval from GRCA in the form of a permit pursuant to Ontario Regulation 41/24. It is understood that the proposed minor variance application requests a reduced year yard setback to facilitate the creation of an additional dwelling unit within the existing garage. The GRCA has no objection to the proposed minor variance application but we note that additional information will be required as part of a complete permit application for the proposed renovations. Pre -consultation with GRCA staff is recommended to determine submission requirements for a complete GRCA permit application. Member of Conservation Ontario, representing Ontario's 36 Conservation Authorities I The Grand — A Canadian Heritage River Page 75 of 303 Consistent with GRCA's approved fee schedule, this application is considered a `minor' minor variance and the applicant will be invoiced in the amount of $300.00 for GRCA's review of this application.
