REPORT HIGHLIGHTS: The purpose of this report is to assess a request to sever a parcel of land that would allow each half of a proposed Semi-Detached Dwelling with 3 attached ADUs be dealt with independently. The key finding of this report is the proposal is considered good planning. Semi- Detached Dwellings are a permitted use in the zone category applicable to the subject property and there are no variances required to facilitate the proposed lotting fabric nor the use of a Semi-Detached Dwelling with ADUs. Staff is therefore recommending approval of the Consent Application subject to conditions. There are no financial implications. Community engagement included a notice sign being placed on the property advising that a Committee of Adjustment application has been received, notice of the application was mailed to all property owners within 30 metres of the subject property and this re Committee of Adjustment meeting. This report supports the delivery of core services. BACKGROUND: The subject property is located on Brentwood Drive near the intersection of Jackson Avene close to Eastwood Collegiate Institute. The neighbourhood is comprised of a mix of low and mid-rise residential uses. The subject property contains an existing detached dwelling (see Figures 1 and 2) that is proposed to be demolished to construct a Semi- Detached Dwelling with 3 Additional Dwelling Units (ADUs) (Attached). Urban Structure and is --law 2019- 051. This zone permits the use of a Semi-Detached Dwelling with up to 3 ADUs providing the zoning regulations can be met. The purpose of the application is to sever a parcel of land to permit each half of a new Semi-Detached Dwelling, with 3 ADUs (Attached) in each side, to be dealt with independently (see Figure 3). Figure 1 Aerial Photo of Subject (outlined in red) and Surrounding Lands Figure 2 Photo of 104 Brentwood Avenue Figure 3 Proposed Severance Sketch A Zoning Occupancy Permit (see Figure 4) has been issued to validate the use and compliance with the zoning regulations. Note that Demolition Control, a Demolition Permit, demolition of the dwelling and a Building Permit, are required before the Consent receives Final Approval and new dwelling can be built. Figure 4 Zoning Occupancy Certificate It is noted that the foundation for the future building/dwelling has not yet been poured and surveyed and a Reference Plan and Building Location Survey were not provided and submitted with the Consent Application. Typically, best practices dictate that prior to the Consent of a property proposed to contain an attached dwelling, the foundation is to be set and surveyed so as to accurately capture the new lot line as constructed. The City is cognisant of the construction challenges and excavation costs that this process poses, and as such, will permit Consent Applications to proceed ahead of the foundation being poured and surveyed. The Applicant is submitting this application with confidence that the future foundation will coincide with the proposed lot dimensions and setbacks, no maintenance easements are necessary and is proceeding with the application at this time . A new condition is proposed to be added to these types of Consent Approvals as follows: That the Owner provide a Building Location Survey and/or Reference Plan, prepared by an Ontario Land Surveyor, to confirm the boundaries of the new lots and that the location of the foundation, with respect to the proposed new lot lines, conforms with the Zoning By-law to the satisfaction of the Manager, Development Approvals. Should the common wall of the foundation not be located on the common lot line, or the setbacks of the building/dwelling do not meet zoning requirements, the Applicant will be required to rectify and/or submit new Committee of Adjustment Applications to resolve the errors and/or deficiencies at their own expense. REPORT: Planning Comments: In considering all the relevant Provincial legislation, Regional and City policies and regulations, Planning staff offer the following comments: Provincial Planning Statement (PPS 2024) In considering all the relevant Provincial legislation, Regional and City policies and regulations, Planning staff offer the following comments: Staff are satisfied that the proposed infill severance application is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement in general and as it related to housing policies in Chapter 2 regarding intensification and facilitating housing options. Section 2.2 1 (b) states that Planning authorities shall provide for an appropriate range and mix of housing options and densities to meet projected needs of current and future residents of the regional market area by permitting and facilitating all housing options required to meet the social, health, economic and well-being requirements of current and future residents. Regional Official Plan (ROP): -Up osed development conforms to Policy 2.D.1 of the ROP as this neighbourhood provides for the physical and community infrastructure required for the proposed residential development, including transportation networks, municipal water and wastewater systems, and a broad range of social and public health services. Regional polices require municipalities to plan for a range of housing in terms of form, tenure, density, and affordability to satisfy the various physical, social, economic, and personal support needs of current and future residents. Staff are satisfied that the proposed severance application adheres to these policies and conforms to the ROP. Community Areas Urban Structure and is Low Rise Residential Section 17.E.20 of the Official Plan implements Section 51 of the Planning Act and contains policies regarding infill development and lot creation (Consent Policies). Policy 17.E.20.5 statesthe following: Applications for consent to create new lots will only be granted where: a) the lots comply with the policies of this Plan, any Community Plan and/or Secondary Plan, and that the lots are in conformity with the Zoning By-law, or a minor variance has been granted to correct any deficiencies; b) the lots reflect the general scale and character of the established development pattern of surrounding lands by taking into consideration lot frontages, areas, and configurations; c) all of the criteria for plan of subdivision are given due consideration; d) the lot will have frontage on a public street; e) municipal water services are available; f) municipal sanitary services are available except in accordance with Policy 14.C.1.19; g) a Plan of Subdivision or Condominium has been deemed not to be necessary for proper and orderly development; and, h) the lot(s) will not restrict the ultimate development of adjacent Zoning By-law 2019-051 The property is zoned Four Zone (RES-4-law 2019- 051. This Zone category permits the use of a Semi-Detached Dwelling with up to 3 ADUs (Attached) providing the zoning regulation can be met. A Zoning Occupancy Certificate has been issued confirming the zoning regulations are being met. Planning Conclusions/Comments: 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, staff is satisfied that the creation of the severed lot is desirable and appropriate. The uses of both the severed and retained parcels are in -law. Planning staff is of the opinion that the size, dimension and shape of the proposed lots are suitable for the use of the lands and compatible with the surrounding community. The severed lands front onto an established public street and are serviced with municipal services. Staff is further of the opinion that the proposal is consistent with the Region of Waterloo Official Plan, the Provincial Planning Statement, and is good planning and in the public interest. Environmental Planning Comments: Request the standard consent condition to enter into an agreement to complete, submit, obtain approval of, and implement a Tree Preservation and Enhancement Plan (TPEP)for both the severed and retained lots, prior to site alteration, demolition and/or building permit. In this case it would be appropriate to require the TPEP as a condition of Final Approval given that a Demolition Permit is required in advance of obtaining the Certificate of the Official. Although the Applicant may not be actively clearly all of the conditions of this Consent at the time of consideration of Demolition Control/Permit of the existing detached dwelling, the Applicant is advised that the TPEP Condition is still applicable and must be approved prior to Demolition Permit issuance. Heritage Planning Comments: No comments or concerns. Building Division 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 the existing building, as well as construction of the new residential buildings. Engineering Division 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 service connections that may be required to service this property, all prior to severance approval. Any new driveways are to be built to City of Kitchener standards. All works are at the f the building. A servicing plan showing outlets to the municipal servicing system will be required to the satisfaction of the Engineering Division prior to severance approval. A Development Asset Drawing (digital AutoCAD) is required for the new site infrastructure 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 municipal sanitary sewer. If basement finished floor elevations do not allow for gravity drainage to the existing municipal sanitary system, the owner will have to pump the sewage to achieve gravity drainage from the property line to the municipal sanitary sewer in the right of way. The Owner shall implement a suitable design solution for a sump pump outlet to the satisfaction of the Director of Engineering. The side yard currently accommodates overland stormwater flows. A sidewalk is required to the rear yard in accordance with the Zoning By-law.
