The Committee noted the comments of the Grand River Conservation Authority, dated November
21, 2003, adviSing they have no objection to the .approval of this application, and that a Fill,
Construction & Alteration to Waterways Permit will be required prior to construction of the house,
driveway, and septic system on the severed lands.
The Committee noted the comments of the Region of Waterloo Planning, Housing & Community
Services, dated September 24,2003, adviSing they have no objection to this application.
The Committee considered the public submissions of neighbourhood residents outlining their
concerns with thiS application.
Mr. B. Sloan reviewed the amended application, noting that the retained land will contain the
existing Wedding Chapel. The severed land is a large lot which will possibly be developed with a
semi-detached dwelling. He noted that the one issue to be dealt with is the parking for the
Wedding Chapel, as the neighbours have concerns with the parking on this site. Mr. Sloan noted
that the amended consent plan provides a larger retained land, which provides room for a new 2
way driveway, and a gravel parking lot to accommodate 39 cars. Further, a geotechnical
investigation has concluded that the smaller severed land, now proposed, can accommodate a
private septic system.
Mr.$immons addressed the Committee advising that he has revised his consent application to
provide a larger retained parcel and more parking, as a result of considering the concerns of the
neighbours. He advised that the chapel has 120 chairs, although, on occasion, more than 120
people occupy the building. Mr. Simmons advised that he is in agreement with staffs
recommended conditions.
When questioned by the Committee, Mr. Simmons stated that the additional parking
recommended by staff will address the on-street parking concerns most of the time, but people
may still park on the street when wedding ceremonies overlap.
Mr. & Mrs. Kinzie advised the Committee of their concerns with the parking for the Wedding
Chapel, including:
. they have a right-of-way over Part 7 on the consent plan, which is also part of the driveway for
the Wedding Chapel;
. the right-of-way is regularly blOCk by vehicles, preventing them access to their property;
. the proposed parking area abuts their children's play area in their rear yard which causes
concems about safety;
. the proposal wUlincrease traffic on the right-of-way;
. the current parking area is much larger than that proposed, and there are parking problems
even with a larger parking lot;
. the parking problems will worsen with a smaller parking lot.
When questioned by the Committee, Mr. & Mrs. Kinzie advised that when they purchased their
property, they were aware that the abutting property was used as a Wedding Chapel, and that
access to their property was via a right-of-way.
Mr. Simmons responded that he is concerned about the safety of the neighbours' children which
is why he is proposing to move the main parking lot access to the other side of the retained land.
Further, the parking lot will be gravel surfaced with the individual parking spaces marked.
When questioned by the Committee, Mr. Simmons advised the existing driveway will be used to
provide access to the wheelchair ramp on the easterly side of the Wedding Chapel.

1. Submission No.: B 2003-047 (Cont'd)
The Committee questioned the "L" shaped retained land, and was advised by Mr. Simmons that
the retained land is configured in that way in order to provide enough room on the severed land
for a septic system.
The Chair advised that he appreciates the merits of this application, as well as the merits of the
neighbours' concerns. He proposed the matter be deferred to allow the applicant to consider,
and staff to comment on, the possibility of reconfiguring the retained land so the westerly lot line
would run directly from the street to the rear lot line.
Mr. Sloan responded that Grand River Conservation Authority staff may have concerns with
switching the location of the house and the septic system, due to the location of the floodline.
The only possibility may be a different type of septic system.
The Committee generally agreed to defer and refer its consideration of this application to
February 10, 2004 to allow opportunity for the following:
(a) consideration of changing the severance line so it runs in a straight line directly from the
street to the rear lot line;
(b) consideration of switching the location of the house and proposed septic system for the
severed land, including use of a different type of septic system;
(c) advice from staff as to whether parking is prohibited on this portion of Doon Village Road;
(d) staff to provide the wording of a condition which would ensure the 2-way driveway is
installed on the west side of the Chapel, on the retained land; and,
(e) the applicant to provide a draft reference plan.

dated December 2, 2003, recommending consideration of these applications be deferred to allow
the existing right-of-way to be released from the land that would be the end of Winding Meadows
Court, in advance of Winding Meadows Court being registered and opened by by-law. A deferral
would also allow consideration of either the registration of the adjacent Stage 1 of plan of
subdivision 30T-01202 and/or modifications to the associated plans of subdivision.

proposed new lots currently do not have frontage on a public street. Further, he noted that the
subdivision on the adjacent lands has not yet been registered, and it is beyond this applicant's
ability to meet any conditions related to the abutting subdivision as that land is not owned by this
applicant.
When questioned by the Committee as to urgency in obtaining approval for these applications,
Mr. Hardie explained that there are 4 conditions in the plan of subdivision for the abutting property
linked directly to the subject property which need to be fulfilled.
Mr. Hardie provided the Committee with a copy of correspondence from the City of Kitchener,
dated September 30,2003, listing the conditions of the draft approval of Plan of Subdivision 30T-
02205, the subject lands being part of that proposed subdivision. Mr. Hardie suggested
conditions of the draft approved subdivision which may appropriately apply to the lands which are
the subject of these Applications for Consent.
Mr. Sloan requested that, should the Committee decide to approve these applications, that the
following conditions be included in the decisions, in addition to any other conditions determined
by the Committee:
(a) payment of taxes, if oustanding;
(b) dedication to the City of those lands required to complete Winding Meadow Court as well
as the road being constructed and opened;
