FEBRUARY 5th, 1979 -17- REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued) Mr. Tom McPherson, Solicitor and authorized agent, appeared at the Hearing. Mr. Hugh Cousins and Mrs. Shirley Cousins were also present. The owners seek consent to convey a parcel of land having an area of 0.96 hectares (2.4 acres) with no frontage, for residential purposes. The owners would retain a parcel of land having an area of 6.507 hectares (16.080 acres) with no frontage, for residential and limited agricultural purposes. There are two existing dwellings and three sheds located on the subject land. There are two dwellings and a barn located on the land to be retained. The application was heard in conjunction with another application by the same owners under Application Number A.78.13. In considering the owners' proposal, the Committee had regard to subsection 4 of section 33 of The Planning Act and to written and oral submissions and comments made at the Hearing. The owners' land is designated as "Industrial" on the Official Plan which provides that the predominant use shall be industrial, but other uses may include limited public, institutional, service commercial or other similar uses. In addition, living accommodations may be permitted for caretakers or for essential workmen, subject to the approval of Council. The Plan has been approved by the Minister. The land is zoned industrial by By-law 1863 which permits industrial, industrial commercial and industrial service uses. A residential use is not permitted in an industrial zone. The By-law has been approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee notes that Council has passed By~law 2201-78 which provides an exception to By-law 1863 to exempt the proposed lot from the requirement that it front on a public street and in addition, permits the continued use of the existing residential dwelling. The By-law has not yet been approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee notes that if By-law 2201-78 is approved by the Municipal Board, the subject land will conform to the By-law and the By-law will be deemed. to conform to the Official Plan notwithstanding that residential uses are not permitted except for caretakers or other essential workmen working on the lot. However, the amending By-law does not exclude the proposed remainder from the requirement that it front on a .public street nor does the By-law permit the continued use of the dwelling on such remainder notwithstanding that it is zoned industrial. Finally, the·owners have not proposed any means of legal access to the subject land. Although there is an existing right-of-way located within the northerly 33 feet of the subject land, such right~f-way is in favour of the owners to the east and to the north and would not provide the purchaser of the subject land with legal access. In the opinion of the Committee, such access is required before consideration of approval can be given to the subject application. For all of the foregoing reasons, the Committee is of the opinion the application is, at best, premature. It is, therefore, the decision of the Land Division Committee that consent be REFUSED to Application Number A.78.12. -v~---·-~•:.---'·~~~-~~"'-'-;_,..c.u___,~,"-~"-·-•-......:•-:...:...:.......:.:...:.'-..~-~~-'-\"-'v~=~•"<~,;,'i">"'*~=~'&_\o,;<;>-.=""'"""~'"~'~-'-'.:....,-~-~·--C,'.••"•'-·--•--r-••••-•••~---~'-'-·------·---- COUNCIL MEETING ...

FEBRUARY 5th, 1979 -20- REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued) Item #2 -Temperance Street Syphons The Town Superintendent submitted an estimate for the cost of purchasing two pressurized sanitary sewer systems for 74 and 78 Temperance Street. Said estimate totals some $2,060.00 exclusive of installation costs. The Committee recommend the purchase and installation of same during the forthcoming summer months. Installation would, however, be contingent upon the homeowner agreeing to assume full maintenance responsibilities following installation. Item #3 -Recommended Culvert Policy The Committee would recommend the acceptance of a Culvert Policy submitted by the Town Superintendent, a copy of which has been attached hereto. Item #4 -Litter Container Proposal The Committee recommend that this issue be referred to Council in Committee for further discussion. Item #5 -Letter #4-106 -(Invoice for the Erection of a Chain Link Fence - Mrs. E. Buck) The Committee recommend that the Town's share for the erection be limited to $417.25, which represents 50% of the cost of erecting said fence excluding the cost of a third end post, the purpose of which is to stabilize a privately owned fence. Item #6 -Letter #21-2 -Request for the erection of splash guards - 25 to 37 Yonge Street, North. The Committee recommend that the Town Superintendent attempt to reduce the degree of pending on the asphalt road surface in front of the property. The erection of splash guards would be of limited value and would be a severe problem during heavy snow. Item #7 -Letter #21-23 -Atton Request for On-Street Parking The Committee agree that the owner of the duplex is morally responsible in seeing that off-street parking is made available to the tenants. Staff will consider any future entrance application from Wells Street.
