The Committee was advised that the applicant requests permission to locate a noise wall,
having a height of 1.82 m (5.97 ft.), 0 m from the side lot line abutting a street, rather than the
required 1.5 m (4.92 ft.). The noise walls have been required through an approved noise
study.
The Committee considered the comments of the Region of Waterloo Transportation Planner,
dated July 3, 2005, and correspondence attached thereto from J.E. Coulter Associates
Limited, dated June 27, 2005. In his comments, Mr. Erb, Transportation Planner, advises the
original noise impact study for this subdivision contained an error, and it has been determined
that these lots do not require noise walls.
Ms. K. Dietrich addressed the Committee, advising that based on the Regional comments,
these applications are withdrawn. The owners of the 3 properties on which these walls have
already been constructed will be advised to either remove the walls, or relocate them in
compliance with City by-laws.
