The southerly parcel to be retained would have an area of 4 acres with frontage of 400 feet on the east side of Ross Street. There is an existing dwelling located on the subject land. Both remaining parcels of land are vacant. The southerly remainder is the subject of another application by the same owner under Application Number A.78.6. In considering the owner's proposal, the Committee had regard to subsection 4 of section 33 of The Planning Act and to written and oral submissionsand comments made at the Hearing. The owner's land is designated as "Industrial" on the Official Plan. The Plan has been approved by the Minister. The land is zoned "L"-Industrial by Bylaw 1863, which has no area or frontage requirements, such being controlled by the minimum yard requirements and maximum building coverage requirements of the Bylaw. The Bylaw has been approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee concludes that the proposal conforms to the Official Plan and to the Zoning Bylaw. The Committee is satisfied that conveyance of the subject land will not adversely affect the established pattern of development in the area and that the shape and dimensions of the resulting lots are adequate and the lots are suitable for the intended purposes. The Committee is further satisfied that the conveyance will not be detrimental to the public interest. In the opinion of the Committee, a plan of subdivision approved under section 33 of The Planning Act is not necessary in this instance to ensure the proper and orderly development of the Municipality.
