Because the application has been appealed, the Ontario Land Tribunal, not the Committee of Adjustment, will make the decision. No public meeting or comment deadline is set at the moment.
Follow this application and we’ll email you if a hearing is scheduled. Your councillor, Rachel Chernos Lin, can tell you how the City is handling the appeal.
02What’s proposed
To construct a new two-storey detached dwelling with an integral, below grade, one car garage. The existing dwelling and detached garage would be demolished. Please be advised this application was previously before the Committee of Adjustment on January 8, 2015. It was the decision of the Committee Members to DEFER the application SINE DIE at the request of the applicant in order to allow him an opportunity to meet with neighbours and discuss changes to the variances and submit revised plans. Please note the following changes from the previous Revised Public Hearing Notice dated February 23, 2015: the elimination of the front yard setback and lot frontage variances, the revision of the proposed floor space index to 0.68 times the area of the lot (By-law No. 569-2013) and a variance added for the proposal of a below grade garage.
The application’s description, from the City’s Committee of Adjustment data. A minor variance is permission for a small exception to the zoning rules, such as height or lot coverage.
