PLANNING APPLICATION
PL93-093-338 -Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment St. Andrews Valley Golf
Club. Part Lot 86. Concession 1 E.Y.S .. 368 St. John's Sideroad East:D14-13-
.9..3.
The Director of Planning explained that the applicant is requesting that Council
extend the existing temporary use by-law for an additional three years. In
addition, the applicant seeks to amend the Major Open Space (0-10) Exception
Zone to increase the allowable size of the existing temporary clubhouse
structure for the golf course from 125 square metres to 165 square metres.
The Director summarized the history of the Official Plan application and zoning
by-law amendment for the subject lands and indicated that the Department has
no objection to the merits of the current proposal. However, she expressed
concern as to the approach taken by the applicant, noting that the actual
temporary clubhouse that was constructed contravenes the applicant's zoning
by-law amendment and site plan. Moreover, the extension to the clubhouse
was constructed over the services easement granted by the applicant to the
Town. Should Council grant the request, it was suggested that an
encroachment agreement be required with respect to that portion of the
temporary clubhouse that encroaches upon the Town's easement.
Representatives of the applicant were not present at the meeting. There were
no members of the public present expressing interest in the application.
Accordingly, the Public Meeting was closed at 7:08 p.m. and Council's
deliberations began:
#627. Moved by Councillor Timpson Seconded by Councillor McKenzie
THAT Council approve the extension of the temporary use by-law
for a term of three years and the amendment to the Major Open
Space (0-1 0) Exception Zone to increase the allowable size of the
existing temporary clubhouse structure from 1 25 square metres to
