LOCATION Part of Lot 8, Concession 8, (Lot 8, Registered Plan No. 65M-2844, municipally known as 310 Mapes Avenue, Woodbridge).

PROPOSAL The subject lands are zoned R3, Residential under By-Law 1-88 as amended and further subject to Exception 9(696). The purpose of this application is to request variances to permit the construction of a proposed one storey rear addition (solarium) and a covered patio / concrete terrace as follows:

Proposals:

1. A minimum rear yard setback of 5m to the solarium. 2. A minimum rear yard setback of 4.65m to the chimney pilaster. 3. A minimum exterior side yard setback of 1m to the covered porch. 4. A maximum lot coverage of 49%.

By-Law Requirements:

1. A minimum rear yard setback of 7.5m to the solarium. 2. A minimum rear yard setback of 7.0m to the chimney pilaster. 3. A minimum exterior side yard setback of 4.5m. 4. A maximum lot coverage of 40%.

Paul Carvaggio, the agent, appeared on behalf of the applicant. There was no one in attendance either in support of or in opposition to the request. The Planning Department made the following written comments: The applicant has applied for a variance to permit the construction of a one-storey rear addition in the rear yard and a covered and unenclosed terrace in the exterior side yard to an existing one storey single detached dwelling. The applicant is requesting a reduction of the rear yard setback to 5.0m to the proposed solarium addition, rather the required minimum 7.5m; a reduction of the rear yard setback to 4.65m to the proposed chimney pilaster rather the required 7.0m; a reduction of the exterior side yard setback to 1.0m to the proposed covered and unenclosed terrace rather than the required 4.5m; and an increase in lot coverage to 49% rather than the maximum 40% lot coverage requirement. The subject property is a 654m2 corner lot. This Department is of the opinion that the proposed reduction of the exterior side yard is too close to the street and would negatively affect the streetscape. As a result, the Development Planning Department does not support the reduction of the exterior side yard setback from 4.5m to 1.0m. The maximum lot coverage in the R3 Residential Zone is 40%. The existing lot coverage is approximately 36.2%. The applicant is requesting an increase in lot coverage to 49% resulting from the solarium and covered terrace additions, which represents an increase in lot coverage of 12.8%. The Development Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposed increase in lot coverage is excessive for this area. There have been no requests in the general area for a lot coverage increase similar to Variance Application A112/06. This Department would support a lot coverage increase from 40% to 43.05%, which represents the lot coverage increase to facilitate the proposed one-storey addition (solarium) in the rear yard. The Development Planning Department supports the variances for the reduction of rear yard setbacks to the proposed one-storey solarium in the rear yard. The Development Planning Department has no objection to Variance Application A112/06 with respect to the reduction of the rear yard setback to the proposed addition in the rear yard. The Development Planning Department does not support the reduction of the exterior side yard setback from 4.5m to 1.0m. This Department does not support the

Page 3 of 3

increase in lot coverage from the maximum 40% to 49%, but will support a maximum 43.05% lot coverage to facilitate the one-storey addition (solarium) in the rear yard. There were no other objections from any Departments or Agencies. The Committee is of the opinion that the variances sought can be considered minor and are desirable for the appropriate development and use of the land. The general intent and purpose of the By-law and the Official Plan will be maintained.

MOVED by M. S. Panicali Seconded by L. Fluxgold THAT Application No. A112/06 – GIOVANNI CHIODO, be APPROVED, in accordance with the sketch attached. CARRIED.

A letter of support for A112/06 was submitted after the decision was rendered from Nicola

Paolozzi, 302 Mapes Avenue, Woodbridge, Ontario, L4L 8R7.

Comments: The Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning

Services Department staff conducted a site inspection on January 13, 2015 at 310 Mapes Avenue, Woodbridge in response to previous Minor Variance Application A004/15. The addition has been constructed at the time of inspection.

The Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department requires a drainage swale to be maintained, which generally requires a minimum of 0.6m setback. From the site inspection, the addition appears to negatively affect the existing drainage and grading pattern on the subject lot and/or any adjacent properties. Accordingly, the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department does not support the proposal No. 2.

With respect to the proposed driveway widening and curb cut, there are no existing boulevard items that would be adversely impacted by the proposed driveway widening and curb cut,

however, the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department cannot support the proposal No. 4, 5 and 6 because the widened driveway and required curb cut are not in conformity with By-Law 1-88 (as amended by By-Law 35-2003). With respect to proposal No. 9 (which was not included in previous minor variance application A004/15), though the proposed setback appears to be sufficient enough to provide for interior side yard drainage, the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department recommends a site inspection be conducted to assess the existing drainage conditions on the subject lot and/or any adjacent properties to ensure the drainage and grading pattern will not be adversely affected. At this time a site inspection could not be conducted due to the weather conditions. Accordingly, the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department recommends adjournment of Minor Variance Application A004/15 (revised), until such time that the weather conditions are appropriate for site inspection.

Conditions: None.

From: Paul Caravaggio [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 04, 2015 7:24 AM To: McGinnis, Gillian Cc: Attwala, Pravina Subject: Re: A004/15 - Mapes Avenue Good morning Gillian, The driveway was expanded to permit the Owner, who is quadriplegic, barrier free access to the covered terrace on the west side of the property. The existing driveway width has been, since construction, the length as defined by the east end of the garage extending all the way to the end of the home at the west. Again, we are not altering the curb cut...it has been existing since construction. If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me. Thank you in advance.

Hello Paul, I am the Planner reviewing the above noted Minor Variance application. Can you please advise as to the reason for the driveway expansion on the site? Is there any particular reason that the home owners needed the additional width on the driveway and the curb cut?
