02What’s proposed
To legalize and alter the existing rear second and third storey cantilevered addition on the existing three-storey semi-detached dwelling, by relocating the north wall of the addition within the property line (to remove the existing encroachment on the north abutting property at 269 Palmerston Avenue). The rear second and third storey cantilevered addition was constructed beyond the limits of the authorized building permit (No. 24 133630 BLD 00 SR). There will be a total of 3 dwelling units on the lot (2 dwelling units within the main dwelling and 1 unit within the laneway suite).
