2 carried, 0 recorded otherwise. Every motion below is printed as the minutes print it.
That minor variance application A10-23-PC be granted for the following reasons: 1. The application is minor in nature as the decreased setback from a municipal drain would allow the existing structure, which was constructed before the zoning by-law provisions were in effect, to be brought into conformity with the by-law, and the decreased setback to an existing structure is minor and measures will be taken to mitigate noise concerns. 2. It is appropriate for the development of the site as the variances are being requested to accommodate a permitted use on the subject property and are required to convert an existing structure into a dog kennel. 3. It is desirable and in compliance with the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-Law as the noise mitigation measures will preserve the intent and purpose of the required setback of the kennel from the dwelling, and the setback to a municipal drain intends to ensure that structures are set back far enough from the drain for maintenance, while the Drainage Superintendent has confirmed that all maintenance work on the drain is done on the south side of the drain and thus the proposal will not impact future maintenance. 4. It is desirable and in compliance with the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan as dog kennels are permitted in the Agricultural designation established in the Official Plan.
