WHEREAS the recommended zoning includes a site-specific exception to the R5N zoning to allow a 1.5m side-yard setback; and, WHEREAS the Zoning By-law for the R5N zone requires that for any portion of a building located within 21m of a front lot line, the minimum required side-yard setback is 2.5m where the building wall is greater than 11m in height; and, WHEREAS the building wall height is 12.5m; and, WHEREAS the staff recommendation rationalizes the reduced setback as appropriate since the south side of the proposed development is “effectively four storeys in height”; and, WHEREAS the Zoning By-law is clear that it is not the number of storeys but the height in metres that creates the requirement for a greater stepback; and, WHEREAS the building, if approved, would abut an R4 zone and the effect of approving the recommended stepback would be to move a mid-rise multi-residential building closer to neighbouring ground-oriented low-rise residential buildings than what is currently permitted in the Zoning By-law; THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT, with respect to report ACS2022-PIE-PS-0035, Planning Committee amend Section 2(b)(ii) of Document 2 by deleting the distance of “1.5m” and replacing with “1.5m on the north side and 2.5m on the south side”; and THEREFORE BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that there be no further notice pursuant to Section 34(17) of the Planning Act .
