ADJACENT LAND CONDITIONS:<br />
In December of 2006, Plan of Subdivision File No. D03-06001 received Draft Approval to facilitate an<br />
infil plan of subdivision and permit the development of 16 single family residential lots along a future<br />
extension of Arten Avenue. The Draft M-Plan provides for blocks at the south end of the subject<br />
lands that will be dedicated as part of the road allowance when the lands are severed off to form lots<br />
fronting onto the Arten Avenue road allowance extension.<br />
It is anticipated that the Subdivision Agreement and Plan of Subdivision will be finalized in the near<br />
future.<br />
In April of 2011, Committee of Adjustment File No. B003/11 was approved to facilitate the severance<br />
of the rear portion of 243 Elgin Mills Road West (abutting parcel to the west of the subject lands) and<br />
merge it with the subject property. It was noted at the time that both 243 and 245 Elgin Mills Road<br />
West were outside of the limits of Draft Approved Plan of Subdivision 19T(R)-06001. The intent of<br />
that severance application was to facilitate future rear lot severances once Arten Avenue was<br />
constructed and assumed by the Town.<br />
CIRCULATED DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES COMMENTS RECEIVED<br />
Arborist:<br />
No response.<br />
Building Department/Zoning Section:<br />
The proposed consent application will create areas of noncompliance with respect to the Zoning By-law.<br />
The R3 Zone in By-law 2523 requires that a lot have a minimum lot frontage of 50 feet, however, the<br />
land to be severed does not have any frontage on a public street.<br />
By-Law Enforcement:<br />
No response.<br />
The Development Engineering Division:<br />
The Development Engineering Division has reviewed the above noted application and recommends the<br />
inclusion of provisional conditions of consent as indicated herein:<br />
RESERVE BLOCK - REFERENCE PLAN CONDITION<br />
1. That the applicant prepare and deposit a reference plan detailing the portion of the existing reserve<br />
block bounding the subject lands and the existing municipal right of way, as a separate part.<br />
For the applicant’s information, and to allow adequate processing time, this reference plan must be<br />
submitted six weeks prior to the applicants anticipated completion of the severance. This is due to the<br />
need for an authorizing By-Law to be enacted prior to the lifting of the subject portion of the reserve<br />
block, providing access for the severed or retained lands of municipal services and the right of way.<br />
The existing reserve adjacent to the road allowance is to be dedicated as a public highway.<br />
necessary By-Law must be enacted prior to satisfaction of the condition.<br />
The<br />
OTHER CONDITIONS<br />
2. The severed parcel cannot be created until the adjoining plan of subdivision (File No. 19T-06001) is<br />
registered.<br />
3. That future Arten Avenue right of way lands being Part 3 and 4, Plan 65R-33122 be conveyed to the<br />
Town prior to the registration of subdivision plan File No. 19T-06001.<br />
Finance:<br />
1. No parkland or Cash-in-lieu is required as a condition of consent. However, the Applicant (owner)<br />
should be made aware that the Town will require land to be conveyed for park or other public<br />
recreation purposes or, at the option the Town, a payment of Cash-in-lieu of such land prior to the<br />
issuance of a building permit pursuant to Section 42 of the Planning Act. A condition of consent<br />
should be imposed requiring the Applicant to enter into an agreement acknowledging the forgoing,<br />
which agreement must be registered on title to the SEVERED PARCEL for the purpose of notice.
