Will!:inson, for consent to convey a parcel of land having an area of 2,339 square feet, as shown hatched on a sketch attached as Appendix No. 1, for residential purposes. BEFORE: R; E. McAfee (Chairman), W. Bales, Ms. B. E. Brodeur, H. J.A. Chambers, R. W. Keffer, R.E. Preston, Mrs. M. I. Smithyes, W.J. Taylor, being a quorum of the Land Division Committee on Tuesday, August 31. 1976. Mr. L. Falk of Freemansnd Flak, Solicitors, appeared at the Hearing. The owners seek consent to convey a parcel of land having an area of 2,339 square feet with no frontage on a public street, for residential purposes. The owners propose to convey the subject land to the o;~er of the land abutting on the south, to enlarge that lot. No new lot will be created. The owners would retain a parcel of land having an area of 20,224 square fee~ with no frontage on a public street, for residential purposes. The subject land is vacant. There is an existing si~gle family dwelling located on the remaining land. Aceess to the owner's land is gained via a permanent right-of-way from Kennedy Street, West, which is located approximately 225 feet to the north. The owners' land is designated "Urban Residential" on the Aurora Official Plan. The Plan has not yet been approved by the Minister. The land is zoned "S" -Single Family Residential by By-law number 1863 which requires minimum frontages of 100 feet and miuimum lot areas of 22,000 square feet. The By-law has been approved by the Municipal Board. A municipal water 8'\'lpply and muni~~piU .sani.tary. sewers are available to the owners' land. The Regional Health Unit has no objection to the application from a public health point of view as municipal sanitary sewers and water are available. The South Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority has no objection to the application. The Town of Aurora notes that although the use of the owners' land tor residential purposes is permitted by virtue;o of By-law Number 1973-72, notwithstanding that it does not front on a public street, the remaining land would not have an area of 22,000 square feet as required by By-law Number 1863. The Regional Planning Department also notes that the remaining land will not have sufficient area. In considering the owners' proposal, the Committee had regard to subsection 4 of section 33 of The Planning Act. In this regard the Committee is satisfied that the proposal conforms to the Official Plan. REGULAR MEETING -14 -APRIL 18th. 1977 REPORTS OF COMMITTEES CONT'D The Committee notes that the owners propose to convey the land to the owner abutting on the south to enlarge that lot. In exchange, the owners are to receive legal access to an existing sanitary sewer pipe located within a permanent right-of-way across the frontage of the owners' land. However, conveyance of the subject land will result in a remainder having a lot area less than required by the By-law. Although it is satisfied that the proposal is necessary and desirable for the orderly development and use of the owners' land and the land abutting on the south, the Committee is of the opinion that it cannot impose conditions on other than the land that is the subject of the application. Having satisfied itself as to the desirability of the proposal, the Committee set aside its decision for a considerable period of time in order to permit the owners to obtain either a variance from the provisions of the By-law that would permit the continued use of the remaining land for residential purposes, or an amendment to By-law Number 1863. To date, no evidence has been submitted that either a variance or an amendment to the By-law has been approved. In the absence of such approval, the Committee has no alternative but to refuse the application. It is, therefore, the decision of the Land Division Committee that Ap~lication Number A.76.7 be, and the same is hereby, REFUSED. Simmons: "Resolved that this report be accepted."
