MARCH 19th, 1979 -24- REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued) Mr. Alexander Sywak of McPherson and Binnington, Solicitors, appeared at the Hearing. The owners seek consent to convey a parcel of land having an area of 2,997 square metres (32,259.44 square feet), with frontage of 21.875 metres (71.77 feet) on the north side of Kennedy Street, for residential purposes. The owners would retain a parcel of land having an area of 3,492 square metres (37,587.58 square feet), with frontage of 21,823 metres (71.6 feet) for residential purposes. Both the subject land and the land to be retained are vacant. 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 "Urban Residential" subject to an "Environmental Protection Area" designation on part of the land. Although lands within the boundaries of the "Environmental Protection Area 11 may be designated "Urban Residential" a residential use is not permitted. Section 6 (b) of the Consents Policy in urban areas states that regard shall .be had to the matters set out in Section 33 (4) of The Planning Act and to the financial implications, adjacent uses, access, services and compliance with the By-law. The Plan has been approved by the Minister. The land is zoned "Residential" by By-law 1863 which requires minimum frontages of 100 feet and minimum lot areas of 22,000 square feet and has been approved by the Municipal Board. The owners' land is purported to have frontage on the north side of Kennedy Street and the south/east side of McDonald Drive. However, the Committee is advised a one-foot reserve exists on.both sides of McDonald Drive in this area and therefore, the owners' land has legal frontage only on Kennedy Street. The Committee notes that only a small portion at the southerly end of the land, adjacent to Kennedy Street is "tableland", the balance being a low, floodplain area. Although designated as "Urban Residential" on the Official Plan, the low area is subject to an "Environmental Protection Area11 designation. Lands so designated cannot be used for residential purposes. The Regional Health Department is not prepared to approve the application until municipal sanitary sewers are available. The Committee is advised that sewers will not be available to the owners' land for approximately 3 to 5 years. The Committee is of the opinion that even with full municipal services, there may not be sufficient tableland on which to place dwellings, bearing in mind the required setbacks from Kennedy Street and the side lot lines. For all of the foregoing reasons, the Committee is of the opinion the application must be refused. It is therefore, the decision of the Land Division Committee that consent be Refused to Application Number A.78.20. ,------~~~··-~v--·~-'·,..,~··~·-·-~·'-<-~~-~-~-~"-·-·_,,___:._.:_.;,..•~,._~,.:~~~"~~=w:;u &&04M<'>""-"''""'"''"""-~~--u'---L~~~·-------•·---·------------·-~~-------- COUNCIL MEETING ...

The land is zoned "R" -Rural by By-law 2142-77 which requires minimum frontages of 600 feet, minimum areas of 25 acres, and minimum sideyards of 30 feet. By-law 2142-77 has been amended by By-law 2242-79 which rezones the subject land to "RR2" -Rural Residential Estate First Density which requires minimum frontages of 150 feet and minimum lot areas of 2 acres. By-law 2142-77 has been approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee notes that Council has passed By-law 2242-79. The By-law has not yet been approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee concludes the proposal conforms to the Official Plan and will conform to the Zoning By-law if By-law 2242-79 is approved by the Municipal Board. The Committee is satisfied that conveyance of the subject land will not adversely affect the established pattern of development in the area and the shape and dimensions of the resulting lots are adequate and the lots are suitable for the intended purposes. The Committee is further satisfied 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 to ensure the proper and orderly development of the Municipality.
