A minor variance application has been applied for that is required to permit a total lot coverage of 12.5% for a proposed pool house whereas Table 12 of the Township’s Zoning Bylaw 2017-70, as amended, identifies that an agricultural property can have a maximum lot coverage of 10%. The applicant has indicated that they will be removing a greenhouse/shed on their property to help reduce the extent that their proposed pool house will be increasing their overall lot coverage.

Property Address: 679 Boyle Road
A minor variance application has been applied for that is required to permit a property to build a proposed dwelling on the property’s existing footings. This variance requires a front yard setback of 7.33 metres (24.05 feet) whereas Table 12 of the Township’s Zoning Bylaw 2017-70, as amended, identifies that an agricultural property can have a minimum front yard setback of 15 metres for a dwelling (49.21 feet). The current owners purchased the property with the previous dwelling already being removed and are now hoping to build their proposed home where the previous dwelling existed.

Property Address: 3982 Concession 1 Road

The first set of variances that are required is to permit a proposed accessory building to be built 18.9 metres (62 feet) closer to the front lot line then property’s main building whereas Table 1-1 of the Township’s Zoning Bylaw 2017-70, as amended, identifies that an accessory building cannot be built closer to the front lot line than the main building. The second set of variances that are required is to permit a proposed accessory building to be built with a size of 208 square metres (2,238.89 square feet) whereas Table 1-1 of the Township’s Zoning Bylaw 2017-70, as amended, identifies that an accessory building cannot be built larger then 100 square metres (1,076.39 square feet). The owners are requesting these variances to replace an existing building of a similar size that they have indicated is not in very good conditions.
