March 1, 2012 Page 30 applicant is required to demonstrate how the drainage pattern and functionality of the swale will be maintained within a 0.3048 metre setback. The Zoning By-law requires a minimum interior side yard setback of 1.5 metres in order to preserve the larger-lot development character of the area and to ensure that there is sufficient separation distance between adjacent dwellings and property lines from a privacy, access, property maintenance and streetscaping perspective. Furthermore, the required interior side yard setback in intended to facilitate proper lot grading and drainage. Staff notes that the applicable Zoning By-law requires the provision of at least two parking spaces on the subject land. In this regard, the applicant recently constructed a dwelling that accommodates an attached three-car garage at grade with underground parking beneath. Furthermore, the property accommodates two lengthy driveways which provide the opportunity for additional parking if necessary. In light of the above noted review, staff is of the opinion that the requested variance is not minor in nature, is not desirable for the appropriate development of the subject land, and does not maintain the intent of the Zoning By-law.
