Official Plan:
The subject lands are designated “Low-Rise Residential” by City of
Vaughan Official Plan 2010 (VOP 2010). The proposal conforms to the
policies of the Official Plan.
Comments:
Planning Department Staff conducted a site visit with photo
documentation on August 12, 2015. The subject lands are developed
with a one-storey single detached dwelling with an existing deck and
garden shed in the rear yard.
The Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services
Department has indicated no objection to the location of the pool
equipment and existing A/C unit as it will not adversely affect the
existing drainage pattern. Accordingly, the Planning Department has
no objection to Variances #1 and #2.
The Owner is proposing to replace the existing garden shed with a
new garden shed in the same location. The Planning Department also
has no objection to the increased height for the new garden shed in
the rear yard. The accessory structure will not physically or visually
impact any abutting properties as it is partially shielded by existing
vegetation (trees and shrubs) along the rear lot line. The accessory
structure also complies with all other setback requirements of Zoning
By-law 1-88. Accordingly, the Planning Department supports Variance
#3.
The Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal is minor in
nature, meets the intent of the Zoning By-law, and is desirable for the
appropriate development of the land.
Condition(s):
None.
Recommendation:
The Planning Department supports Minor Variance Application
A250/15.

COMMENTS:
PowerStream has received and reviewed the proposed Variance Application. This review, however, does not imply
any approval of the project or plan.
All proposed billboards, signs, and other structures associated with the project or plan must maintain minimum
clearances to the existing overhead or underground electrical distribution system as specified by the applicable
standards, codes and acts referenced.
In the event that construction commences, and the clearance between any component of the work/structure and the
adjacent existing overhead and underground electrical distribution system violates the Occupational Health and
Safety Act, the customer will be responsible for 100% of the costs associated with PowerStream making the work
area safe. All construction work will be required to stop until the safe limits of approach can be established.
In the event construction is completed, and the clearance between the constructed structure and the adjacent existing
overhead and underground electrical distribution system violates the any of applicable standards, acts or codes
referenced, the customer will be responsible for 100% of PowerStream’s cost for any relocation work.
