Relief is required to allow a proposed garage width of 12.2 metres whereas, Part 3.12.7(h) Private Garages of the Township’s Zoning By-Law identifies the maximum garage width permitted for an attached private garage as 50% of the total width of the dwelling or 9.2 metres, whichever is less.

Additionally, relief is also being requested to allow a garage door height of 4.6 metres whereas, Part 3.12.7(g) Private Garages of the Township’s Zoning By-Law identifies 2.6 metres as the maximum height permitted for a garage door to an attached private garage. 

c.

A21/2024WL –Krol for 4040 Concession 4 Road

A Minor Variance application has been applied for to permit a proposed detached private garage (9.14 metres by 15.24 metres) on the subject property. Relief is being requested from Table 1-1 (found in Part 3 of the Township’s Zoning By-Law 2017-70, as amended) which identifies 50 metres as the maximum distance permitted for an accessory building or structure from a main building within an Agricultural ‘A’ zone. The proposed storage building (139.3 square metres) would be approximately 131.4 metres from the existing dwelling.

The Applicants are proposing to construct a new single detached dwelling on the property in the near future and will be demolishing the existing residence on the lot. Once construction of the single detached dwelling is completed, the proposed storage building will be slightly closer to the front lot than the main front wall of the dwelling.
