Issues
on
the
regular
budget,
a
regular
budget,
the
regular
agenda-
I'm
sorry
elections
are
keeping
me
up
too
late.
I
think
so.
I
will
read
the
notice
of
collection,
personal
information
collected
as
a
result
of
this
public
hearing
and
process
is
collected
under
the
authority
of
the
planning
act
and
will
be
used
to
assist
in
making
a
decision
on
this
matter.
B
B
B
Interested
members
of
the
public
can
email
the
committee
clerk
or
the
assigned
planner
if
they
wish
to
be
notified.
Regarding
a
particular
application,
no
decisions
are
made
at
public
meetings
concerning
applications
unless
otherwise
noted
the
public
me,
this
public
meeting
is
held
to
gather
public
opinion.
B
An
exception
to
this
rule
is
a
combine,
is
combined
reports
which
consolidates
the
public
meeting
in
the
comprehensive
report.
These
applications
are
deemed
by
staff
as
straightforward
and
routine.
This
business
practice
has
been
in
place
for
a
number
of
years
and
is
received
by
the
applicants
as
efficient
customer
service
and
effective
use
of
committee
time.
B
B
From
the
city's
perspective
following
council
decision
notice
will
be
circulated
in
accordance
with
the
planning
act
if
a
person
or
public
body
would
otherwise
have
an
ability
to
appeal.
The
decision
of
the
council
of
the
corporation
of
the
city
of
kingston
to
the
local
planning
appeal
tribunal,
but
that
person
or
public
body
does
not
make
oral
submissions
at
a
public
meeting
or
make
written
submissions
to
the
city
of
kingston
before
the
bylaw
is
passed.
That
person
or
public
body
is
not
permitted
to
appeal
the
decision.
E
B
E
E
The
subject
property
at
192
union
street
is
located
between
albert
street
and
collingwood
on
the
south
side
of
the
block.
It's
a
block,
that's
typically
residential,
some
owner
occupied
and
rental,
based
on
local
knowledge.
It's
also
the
same
block
where
a
new
queen's
residence
was
recently
approved
further
to
the
south,
queens
university
main
campus
is
to
the
west
or
to
the
east
story.
The
next
block
and
the
union
street
corridor
offers
public
transit
stops
within
close
proximity.
E
E
The
neighborhood
immediately
adjacent
on
the
block
is
a
mix
of
one
unit
up
to
six
unit
buildings
immediately
across
the
street.
There's
a
three
unit
and
a
six
units
and
then
on
the
corner
of
union
and
collingwood,
there's
a
three
unit
building
and
there
are
a
few
other
rentals
as
well
and
multi-unit
rentals
and
then
a
number
of
single
detached.
So
it's
quite
an
eclectic
mix
in
terms
of
the
the
residential,
but
all
predominantly
two,
two
to
two
and
a
half
story
built
form
and
next
next
slide.
E
E
E
All
the
units
would
be
accessed
directly
from
union
street
through
a
common
entrance
at
the
front
door.
The
existing
front
door
there'll
be
three
parking
spaces
in
the
rear
that
you
access
by
that
lane,
including
one
take
the
accessible
space
and
then
a
substantial
amount
of
amenity
space
in
the
rear
yard,
as
well
next
slide.
E
E
E
E
So
it
we're
not
dealing
with
an
original
building
in
terms
of
comparators
to
the
others,
on
the
block
and
obviously
to
the
left
and
right
of
the
building
which
are
original
original
structures
in
the
neighborhood.
So
one
option
was
to
try
to
make
it
appear
older,
well,
actually,
three
options.
One
is
to
essentially
continue
with
the
same
same
kind
of
1970s,
aesthetic,
which
wasn't
really
desirable
from
anybody's
perspective.
The
other
option
was
to
you
know,
look
at
making.
E
So
as
part
of
the
discussions
and
evaluation
of
what
was
appropriate,
we
looked
at
the
city's
design
guidelines
for
residential
lots.
Looked
at
some
of
the
other
examples
in
kingston
in
terms
of
some
modern
infill
buildings
or
renovations
additions
to
traditional
buildings,
and
we
concluded
that
it
was
an
appropriate
direction
to
take
in
terms
of
the
design.
Aesthetic.
The
design
guidelines
for
residential
lots
document
from
the
city
supports
this
type
of
approach
in
terms
of
providing
a
contemporary
urban
aesthetic
as
a
contrast
to
what
would
otherwise
be
classified
as
a
traditional
streetscape.
E
That
contrast
and
highlights
you
know,
what's
old
and
then
what's
distinct
about
the
old
original
construction
versus,
what's
new
and
and
the
differences
over
time
as
building
construction
has
has
changed,
and
it
also
just
creates
a
bit
more
of
an
interest
in
terms
of
the
streetscape
character,
certainly
more
so
than
than
the
1970s
building.
That's
there
today,
in
our
opinion,
and
just
to
note,
as
an
aside
neither
of
the
buildings,
it's
not
adjacent
to
a
designated
building,
so
neither
the
neither
the
abutting
buildings
are
designated
under
the
heritage
act.
E
So
supporting
studies
and
plans
were
provided
included,
building
plans,
as
well
as
a
planning
report,
an
urban
design
brief
and
then
a
noise
study
as
well
that
looked
at
traffic
noise
from
union
street,
as
well
as
any
potential
noise
sources
from
hvac
equipment,
for
example,
air,
conditioners,
etc.
And
there
were
no
issues
identified
that
were
of
concern
because
the
proposal
is
for
four
units.
It
will
be
subject
to
site
plan
control.
So
as
part
of
that,
a
bit
more
detailed
engineering
will
be
done
in
terms
of
servicing
connections.
E
If
upgrades
are
needed
to
existing
services,
as
well
as
a
landscape
plan,
so
that
site
planning
control
application
will
be
filed
in
the
near
future
likely
shortly
after
zoning.
The
zoning
application
has
been
decided
upon
next
slide,
so
we
evaluated
the
application
against
the
provincial
policy
statement
as
well
as
the
official
plan
and
the
zoning
bylaw
based
on
our
review
of
the
2020
pps.
E
The
density
proposed
is
105
dwelling
units
per
net
hectare,
which
is
technically
a
high
density
residential
use.
So
there
are
policies
in
the
op
about
proximity
to
high
density,
particularly
that
it
has
to
be
on
a
collector
or
tailor
or
arterial
road.
It
has
to
be
within
walking,
distance
of
commercial
or
convenience,
commercial
uses,
amenities
such
as
park,
spaces,
etc.
E
It's
on
the
transits,
a
transit
route,
and
so
it
meets
those
policies
of
the
official
plan.
The
next
slide
also
identifies
the
other
policies
of
the
official
plan,
with
respect
to
compatibility
avoidance
of
adverse
effects
through
use
of
mitigation
measures,
functional
needs
in
terms
of
adequate
amenities,
space,
parking,
etc,
and
so
in
regards
to
these
policies,
we
believe
it
also
satisfies
the
intent
and
the
the
zoning
bottle.
Amendment
conforms
to
the
policies
of
the
op
next
slide.
E
Several,
the
of
the
lots
across
the
street
have
been
rezoned
they've,
typically
been
placed
into
a
site-specific
b
zone
where
they've
been
three
or
three
or
more
dwelling
units,
so
171
union
street
195
union
street
and
the
property
in
between
those
two.
They
are
similarly
zones.
So
we
propose
the
same
b,
a
site-specific
b
zone
to
allow
the
four
units
the
next
slide,
so
the
b
zone
would
address
seven
particular
provisions,
so
two
of
them
are
existing
non-compliances,
which
is
the
side
yards
so
the
minimum
side.
E
You
have
another
side
and
then
the
aggregate
side
yard-
and
so
those
as
I
said,
are
not
proposed
to
change.
The
density
is
increased
to
105
dwelling
units
per
hectare
for
the
four
units.
The
parking
requirement
we're
reducing
it
from
four
spaces.
To
three
spaces,
so
four
four
would
be
one
space
per
unit
and
because
of
the
proximity
to
campus
services,
amenities,
transit
route,
etc.
The
three
parking
spaces
for
the
four
units
were
determined
to
be
suitable.
E
E
E
E
So
in
conclusion,
we
believe
the
amendments
are
consistent
with
the
pps
conform
to
the
official
plan
and
are
compatible
with
the
surrounding
land
uses.
I'll
note
that
we
had
one
reach
out
from
an
immediate
neighbor
and
the
owner
and
the
designer
had
an
opportunity
to
meet
and
talk
with
with
that
neighbor
and
they
were
happy
with
with
the
design.
Their
concern
had
been
about
the
height
of
the
building
the
additional
floor,
and
particularly
because
of
the
flat
roof
of
the
proposal.
F
Thank
you.
Thank
you
good
evening,
mr
chair.
My
name
is
walid
albaque,
I'm
a
planner
with
the
city,
I'm
just
going
to
touch
upon
the
public
notification,
so
notification
for
the
public
meeting
was
completed
in
accordance
accordance
with
the
requirements
of
the
planning
act,
so
on-site
signage
was
provided,
notices
were
sent
by
mail
to
neighbors
living
within
120
meters
and
a
notice
was
placed
in
the
local
newspaper.
F
E
F
B
B
C
E
I
can
answer
this
and
the
staff
want
to
to
chime
in
and
they
can
as
well
so
through
you,
mr
chair,
yeah,
good
question
it.
So
the
the
blocks
immediately
surrounding
queen's
campus
have
historically
been
in
the
e-zone
education
zone
and
then
that
specific
zoning
allows
for
what
you'd
expect
in
terms
of
university-type
buildings
and
uses,
and
then
it
also
says
that
residential
uses
are
permitted
in
accordance
with
the
a
zone
which
is
typically
one
in
two
units,
one
or
two
unit
dwellings.
E
But
as
we've
seen
intensification
around
the
campus
areas,
the
e
zone
has
been
changed.
A
number
of
times
for
site-specific
proposals
and
either
left
in
the
e
zone
and
a
site-specific
e-zone
was
established
or
put
into
a
site-specific
b
zone
such
as
is
proposed
here.
So
it
was
these
donuts
intended
to
reflect
kind
of
a
intention
or
allowance
of
potential
queens
university
uses
on
the
surrounding
blocks
of
the
main
campus
and
then
a
residential
use
as
well.
G
E
H
G
E
I
E
G
Okay,
okay,
thank
you.
I
just
know
that
the
concern
that
for
secondary
suites
in
that
sydney,
district
area
has
always
been
if
the
servicing
capacity
can
handle
it,
and
this
is
now
12
washrooms
instead
of
four
washrooms
but
being
a
queen
student,
I
would
have
loved
to
have
had
my
own
washroom
when
I
lived
on
the
vinston
avenue.
So
I
know
that
every
all
the
students
or
whoever
moves
into
these
units,
whoever
it
is
moving
into
the
units,
would
appreciate
one
washroom
per
bedroom.
So
that's
great
sign
me
up.
G
G
It
shows
a
scheme,
schema
schematic
diagram
of
the
south
elevation
and
it
shows
all
of
the
fire
escapes,
and
I
think
that
makes
the
south
elevation
view
look
really
busy,
and
I
know
this
is
probably
more
site
planned.
So
it's
just
more
to
keep
in
mind
when
a
site
plan
comes
along,
but
if
there's
any
way
to
make
all
that
railing,
not
so
visible,
I'm
thinking
about
westbrook
meadows.
G
We
had
a
lot
of
places
that
were
done
up
as
sort
of
secondary
suites
and
when
you
look
at
the
backyard
of
the
homes
in
amongst
it
and
councillor,
chappelle
would
be
able
to
verify
this.
It's
just
this.
The
backyard
view
just
looks
so
busy,
because
it's
just
nothing
but
wooden
staircases
down.
It
takes
away
from
the
aesthetics
of
the
entire
neighborhood.
G
All
the
neighbors
complain
for
those
homes
that
were
built
with
all
that
extra
wood.
So
maybe,
if
it
was
wrought
iron
like
black
or
gray,
wrought
iron,
it
would
more
blend
in
with
the
building
just
something
to
keep
in
mind,
because
with
me,
looking
at
that
self
elevation
and
these
homes
are,
you
know
like
three,
almost
almost
four
stories
right,
because
you
have
the
elevation
from
the
the
high
basement.
It's
just
going
to
be
a
lot
of
wood
staircase.
If
that's
the
intent,
I
don't
know
if
you
have.
E
H
All
right,
good
great
you
haven't
faced
it,
but
that's
fine
well
part
of
it
was
having.
I
was
having
it
was
having
fire
exits
off
the
back,
so
that
would
be,
you
know,
certainly
a
safer
issue
in
that
sense
and
also
feel
that
people
for
the
most
part,
a
lot
of
people
will
also
enter
from
the
back,
because
that's
where
their
cars
parked
or
their
bicycles
are
parked.
H
I
sort
of
imagine
the
railing,
as
being
you
know,
certainly
metal
spindles,
which
keeps
it
much
lighter.
You
know
the
wood
rails,
it
does
look
a
little
beefy
here,
but
I
think
if
you
go
to
black
to
black
iron
spindles,
you
know
the
wooden
rails
in
my
experience
is
really
is
really
I
really
down
that
bulkiness.
It
is
around
behind
the
house.
Obviously,
and
there's
you
know
the
huge
queen's
queen's
residence
going
right
next
door
to
it.
H
But
one
thing
I
also
like
to
add
in
is
that
all
the
talks
sort
of
all
have
been
about
the
outside
of
the
place.
Just
one
thing
about
the
inside
one
is
that
the
owner
is
planning
on
completely
gutting
the
place,
so
there's
gonna
be
proper
installation,
proper,
plumbing,
proper
electrical.
You
know
in
terms
of
your
environmental
sustainability
goals
in
the
city.
H
It's
going
to
make
a
big
difference
in
terms
of
how
this
house
works,
and
you
know
big
upgrades
in
terms
of
the
quality
of
the
cabinetry
that
you
know
to
get
you
know.
Attendance
will
take
care
of
the
place.
So
that's
just
another
aside,
but
I
think
the
background
could
be
fine.
If
it
it
went
to
black.
You
know
black
metal
spindle.
That
is
a
lot
of
steps
for
sure.
But
again
I
think
the
the
rear
exit
is
is
important.
J
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
through
you.
Thank
you,
mr
tao,
for
the
presentation.
I
just
had
a
question
about
accessing
the
parking
in
the
schematics.
It
didn't
really
show
where
the
cars
come
from,
and
I
know
one
of
the
other
overhead
diagrams
in
our
package
showed
an
alleyway
it
looks
like,
but
then,
when
you
went
to
the
google
street
view
or
whatever
the
actual
image
was
it
didn't
really
look
like
there
was
a
road
for
cars
to
access
there.
So
how
do
cars
get
to
the
back
parking.
E
E
If
you
go
along
that
block
of
prince
or
union
street
sorry
you'll
see
that
none
of
those
houses
have
driveways,
so
everybody
gets
a
laneway
in
my
presentation,
slide,
14
or
some
of
the
earlier
slides
shows
shows
some
of
that
lot
fabric.
So
all
of
those
lots
along
union
street
and
as
well
on
collingwood.
There
actually
have
access
to
that
laneway
in
albert
as
well.
So
it's
the
same
laneway.
I
believe
that
was
the
subject
of
some
contention
with
the
queen's
residence.
So
I
believe.
J
E
Yeah,
I
think,
to
best
my
knowledge
and
what
the
owner
has
said
is
that
they
believe
it's
owned
by
queen's
university,
and
I
just
from
what
I
know
the
the
use
of
it
in
terms
of
maintenance
is
been
by
queens
as
well
historically,
according
to
the
owner's
experience
that
queen's
has
gone
through
there
and
cleared
it.
But
yeah
there's
there's
some
ongoing
discussions.
I
think
related
to
the
residents,
but
as
far
as
historically
it
seems
that
queens
has
been
the
one
who's
been
hated.
J
F
B
Yeah,
I
you
asked
the
same
questions
I
was
about
to
ask.
I
know
that
this
has
come
up
and
queens
remedied
it
with
all
the
adjoining
property
owners
by
saying
that
they
would
cont
would
recognize
the
ongoing
rights
of
access
of
those
joining
properties
and
they
would
maintain
the
the
maintenance
of
the
laneway.
B
I
would
really
appreciate
mark
if,
if
you
could
get
that
in
writing
by
the
time
the
comprehensive
report
comes
back,
because
that's
a
really
important
question
and
I'm
not
sure
if
queens
had
anticipated
the
full
laneway
right
to
the
end
being
continued
to
be
maintained
by
them.
So
if
you
could
confirm
that
that'll
save
me
asking
this
question
again
in
a
few
months
time.
B
B
A
B
B
If
there's
a
mover,
thank
you
councillor,
sanik
seconder,
counselor
hutchison,
all
those
in
favor
carried
confirmation
of
minutes
from
our
october
15th
meeting
we've
all
received
them.
Is
there
a
mover
and
a
shaker
counselor
hutcheson
counselor,
sanik
kempster
kylie
must
be
saving
his
strength,
moved
and
seconded
all
those
in
favor
carried.
Thank
you.
B
I
don't
believe
we
have
any
delegations.
Nor
do
we
have
briefings
I'll,
read
this
short
business
statement.
This
portion
of
the
meeting
is
open
to
the
public.
The
meeting
has
initiated
a
new
process
in
which
members
of
the
public
will
have
the
opportunity
to
speak
for
up
to
five
minutes
on
comprehensive
reports
presented
before
the
planning
committee.
B
E
K
K
So
the
property
in
question
is
located
just
north
of
barrack
street.
It's
effectively
across
from
the
food
basics,
parking
lot
just
north
of
the
downtown.
So
this
is
considered
part
of
the
the
northern
part
of
the
central
business
district.
Next
slide,
please,
the
picture
on
the
top
left
is
the
the
subject
property.
The
picture
in
the
top
right
is
some
of
the
properties
that,
back
on
to
the
the
subject
property,
it's
a
mix
of
residential
uses
and
unlimited
commercial
along
rito
street.
K
K
K
So
this
is
a
the
site
plan
for
the
proposed
development.
Again,
this
is
a
this
is
a
building.
Actually
that
has
a
heritage
value,
but
nothing
is
being
proposed
to
change
on
the
outside
of
the
building.
All
the
changes
are
proposed
to
be
internal,
so
that
will
retain
the
heritage
character
of
the
building.
K
K
There
isn't
any
off
street
parking
available
that,
as
you
can
see,
from
the
site
plan,
the
existing
commercial
and
the
existing
two
dwelling
units
had
no
on-site
parking
due
to
the
knees,
mental
on
the
south
side
of
the
property.
Similarly,
there's
not
any
room
or
potential
for
accessible
parking
next
slide.
Please
there
is
bicycle
parking
being
provided
beyond
the
requirements
of
the
zoning
bylaw,
as
there
are
two
spaces
existing
already,
then
the
requirements
were
for
three
bicycle
spaces
and
and
four
are
being
proposed.
K
The
permitted
uses
currently
on
this
site
allow
for
multi-unit
residential
dwellings.
However,
the
units
in
this
zone,
you
are
not
currently
permitted
as
of
right
to
have
residential
units
at
the
first
floor
and
ground
floor
effectively
below
the
second
floor,
and
so
that
is
part
of
the
relief
being
sought
and
in
addition
to
that,
the
maximum
density
of
the
site
is
being
sought
to
be
increased
from
the
permitted
123
residential
units
to
180
residential
units.
K
B
Thank
you
very
much.
I
will
now
turn
to
the
committee.
If
there
are
any
questions
and
we'll
save
the
comments
until
the
second
half,
but
if
there
are
any
questions
now
would
be
the
time
to
ask,
and
I
believe
this
is
I'm
not
mistaking
councillor
hutchinson's
district,
so
he
may
indeed
have
some
questions
or
a
call
seeing
none.
B
A
B
B
I
would
be
whining
about
the
fact
that
there's
no
on-site
parking,
however,
when
this
was
a
restaurant
I
visited
it
often
probably
too
often,
and
the
nice
thing
is
that
there
was
always
available
parking
because
of
the
lot
across
the
street
and
any
tenants
there,
I'm
sure
would
be
able
to
get
a
permit.
That
would
allow
them
to
park
right
across
the
street,
so
it
wouldn't
have
an
impact
on
adjoining
properties.
B
L
Thank
you
good
evening,
mr
chair
I'll,
be
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
city
this
evening
and
staff's
recommendation.
My
name
is:
sonja
bolton,
I'm
a
senior
planner
with
the
city's
planning
services
department.
I'm
here
this
evening
to
present
the
staff
recommendation
for
the
proposed
zoning
bylaw
amendment
for
1024
portsmouth
avenue.
The
public
meeting
for
this
application
was
held
a
couple
of
months
ago
on
september
3rd
next
slide,
please.
L
So
the
purpose
and
effect
of
the
application
is
to
resign
the
property
to
permit
a
third
residential
unit
to
be
installed
in
the
basement
of
the
existing
building.
I
know
new
construction
is
proposed
on
the
site
and
there
previously
actually
had
been
a
third
unit
in
the
basement,
but
the
owner
did
remove
it
a
couple
of
years
ago
when
they
were
notified
by
the
city
that
the
third
unit
was
not
permitted
under
the
current
zoning
next
slide,
please.
L
So
the
property
is
located
at
the
north
end
of
portsmouth
avenue
it's
in
the
northwest
corner
of
the
strathcona
park.
Neighborhood
there
are
residential
uses
to
the
north
east
and
south,
including
some
similarly
designed
buildings,
some
of
which
do
have
three
units
in
them
and
have
been
rezoned
to
allow
three
units
to
the
west.
L
That's
odd,
there's
no
picture
showing.
Okay.
Apologies!
I'm
not
sure
why
that
didn't
turn
out
in
the
the
slide,
but
the
the
property
is
designated
both
residential
and
environmental
protection
area.
The
building
the
existing
building
itself,
where
the
third
unit
is
proposed
to
be
located,
is
within
the
residential
designation.
L
L
L
L
The
site-specific
zone
will
recognize
the
aggregate
side
yard
for
the
existing
building
and
will
require
a
six
meter
setback
to
the
flood
plain.
The
two
exceptions
to
that
is
the
the
site.
Specific
zone
also
acknowledges
that
a
portion
of
one
parking
space
will
be
within
that
six
meter
setback,
as
well
as
one
accessory
structure
less
than
ten
square
meters
in
area
next
slide.
Please.
L
L
So
in
terms
of
public
correspondence,
we
only
had
one
piece
of
correspondence
and
one
inquiry
regarding
the
property,
and
that
was
an
email
of
support
from
one
of
the
neighboring
property
owners.
I
believe
that
correspondence
was
circulated
to
the
members
of
the
committee
through
the
addendum
today
that
was
provided
by
the
clerk's
office.
L
There
was
also
a
few
comments
from
the
planning
committee
members
from
the
public
meeting
that
was
held
a
couple
of
years
ago,
so
I'm
just
going
to
briefly
address
the
three
comments
that
were
raised.
One
had
to
do
with
egress
from
the
basement
windows.
So
if
the
zoning
bylaw
amendment
is
approved,
the
applicant
is
going
to
be
required
to
apply
to
the
city
for
a
building
permit
and
through
that
process.
L
L
So
the
concern
there
is
the
amount
of
space
in
the
rear
yard
that
is
part
of
the
epa
or
the
environmental
protection
area.
So
staff
did
speak
with
us,
the
staff
at
the
conservation
authority.
They
certainly
they
didn't,
have
a
concern
with
there
being
parking
in
the
rear
yard.
Their
concern
was
with
any
alterations
to
the
grade
or
to
the
drainage,
so
they
wouldn't
permit
that,
and
currently
what
exists
in
the
rear
yard
is
just
a
grassed
lawn
area.
L
So,
in
order
to
make
that
into
a
stable
enough
surface
to
allow
parking,
you
would
have
to
bring
in
fill
and
gravel
and
other
materials,
and
it
is
unlikely
that
that
would
be
supported
by
the
conservation
authority,
because
there
would
need
to
be
a
permit
under
their
regulation.
As
well
for
that,
so
for
that
reason,
that
is
why
the
the
applicant
has
not
pursued
that
option.
L
The
third
and
final
comment
was
about
the
tandem
parking
in
the
driveway,
and
if
we
could
just
go
back
one
slide,
please
I
think
it's.
I
just
want
to
use
the
concept
plan
to
illustrate
the
the
conversation.
So
certainly,
I
think
the
reason
the
issue
of
the
tandem
parking
was
raised
because
there
are,
there
are
logistical
issues,
sometimes
when
it
comes
to
different
tenants
having
parking
spaces
that
are
parked
in
tandem.
L
So
when
staff
were
reviewing
this,
you
know
with
the
applicant
and
their
agent,
we
went
through
a
number,
a
number
of
things
that
we
discussed
and
so
for
the
first
is
that
the
zoning
bylaw
does
permit
tandem
parking.
Now
that
is
right.
Now
that
is
specific
to
properties
that
have
second
residential
units.
This
case
they
are
looking
at
seeking
permission
for
a
third
unit,
but
the
tandem
parking
arrangement
is
specific
to
just
two
of
the
spaces,
so
it
is
similar
in
that
nature.
L
So
in
terms
of
what
is
proposed
here,
they're
the
full-size
parking
spaces
in
in
an
existing
driveway,
which
is
also
the
existing
driveway,
is
a
sort
of
a
generous
enough
size.
So
in
terms
of
doing
another
site
visit
and
looking
at
the
way
in
which
the
tenants
themselves
may
actually
use
the
spaces,
it's
likely
that
that
second
parking
location
will
park
a
little
further
back,
allowing
some
room
for
cars
to
maneuver
around
each
other
on
the
site.
L
L
So
staff,
do
you
feel
that
the
proposal
to
add
the
third
unit
to
the
existing
building
is
appropriate
as
it
adds
to
the
range
of
the
built
form
and
the
dwelling
unit
sizes
that
are
available
in
the
area?
It
contributes
to
increasing
the
residential
density
within
the
urban
boundary
and
that
the
proposed
amendment
complies
with
the
provincial
policy
statement
and
the
official
plan
and
constitutes
good
land
use
planning.
So,
therefore,
staff
are
recommending
approval
of
the
proposed
zoning
bylaw
amendment
for
the
property.
Thank
you.
B
J
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
Thank
you.
Miss
bolton,
quick
question.
It's
fairly
high
level,
but
when
I
was
reading
through
the
report,
I
didn't
see
any
mention
of
secondary
suites.
I
was
wondering
if
this
would
have
been
a
good
candidate
for
some
of
the
new
secondary
suite
policy
that
we
passed
last
year
and
what
I
guess
why
we
need
a
bylaw
change
to
provide
for
something
that
I
thought.
Maybe
another
policy
could.
L
Thank
you
through
you,
mr
chair.
Yes,
so
currently,
the
secondary
suite
policies
are
intended
only
for
the
addition
of
a
second
unit
to
an
existing
one
dwelling
unit.
This
is
the
addition
of
a
third,
so
there
have
been
some
changes
at
the
provincial
level
that
have
changed
some
provincial
policy
taken
the
language
of
second
residential
units
to
additional
residential
units,
which
we
think
the
intent
is
to
allow
more
than
two
as
a
municipality.
L
We
have
not
yet
done
sort
of
the
review
to
see
what
we
can
accommodate
when
we
did
the
review
for
the
second
residential
units.
There
was
quite
a
bit
of
work
involved
with
utilities
kingston,
for
instance,
to
ensure
that
we
had
adequate
servicing
throughout
the
municipality
to
allow
additional
units
on
properties
so
currently,
because
this
is
proposing
a
third
unit
where
only
two
are
permitted,
unfortunately,
that
that
sort
of
necessitated
going
the
route
of
the
rezoning
in
this
instance.
J
No
fair
enough,
thank
you
that
clarifies
it
and
I
do
think.
Maybe
I
had
the
provincial
policy
in
mind
because
I
remember
not
that
long
ago,
even
after
we
passed
the
secondary
suite
policies,
there's
discussion
about
maybe
even
adding
carriage
houses
in
a
place
where
there
are
two
units
already
so
essentially
a
third.
So
maybe
I
was
kind
of
conflating
those
two.
So
thanks.
B
B
B
B
B
The
problem
in
the
old
days
in
my
old
days,
in
the
90s
in
sydney
and
now
in
in
williamsville,
is
that
often
sec,
illegal,
secondary
suites
were
dangerous,
and
by
allowing
us
to
legalize
these,
it
allows
us
to
ensure
that
they're
built
properly
and
safely
so
I'll
be
voting
in
support
of
this.
Thank
you.
B
Great
any
further
questions
comments.
Seeing
none
I'll
call
the
question
all
those
in
favor
carried
we're
a
very
unanimous
group
tonight.
Thank
you
very
much
I'll
move
on
to
our
second
last
issue,
which
is
652
670
princess
street
and
551
victoria
street,
and
it's
a
request
to
condo
minimize
a
property.
That's
already
gone
through
all
of
the
planning
process
and
is
indeed
now
being
built.
I
File
good
evening,
mr

and
the
limestone

I
The
purpose
of
this
application
this
evening
is
to
establish
a
condominium
exemption
under
section
96
of
the
condominium
act
like
I
said,
the
condominium
would
be
comprised
of
a
10-story
mixed-use,
building
325
residential
units
and
14
commercial
units,

there
is
an
existing

I
Community
benefits
were
collected
as
part
of
that
set
of
approvals
and
subsequent
to
that,
the
applicant
met
the
requirements
to
request
a
removal
of
the
holding
symbol
for
the
site,
and
that
was
approved
by
council
on
april
16th
of
2019
and
in

Approval
was
issued
for

I
The
key
policies
of
focus
for
a
final
plan
of
condominium
application
are
found
in
section
9.6
of
the
official

all
the
requirements:
the
zoning

law,
ontario
building

the
property
standards
by

can
confirm
that
that

the
requirements
of
the
parkland

The
proposed
condominium
conversion
is
consistent
with
the
provincial
policy
statement.
The

and
the
recommendation
is
to
for
council
and
planning
committee
to
approve
the
exemption
under
the
condominium
act
and
to
authorize
subject
to
the

Thank
you
very
much
just
really
quickly.
There
are
two
reasons
I
love
condominiums,
although
I've
never
been
able
to
afford
one.
The
one
reason
is
that
if
they
operate
like
a
rich
person's
co-op,
I
have
a
couple
of
condominiums
in
my
district
and
they
take
care
of
issues
internally
and
so
there's
very
little
kind
of
complaints
to
the
city
for
a
lot
of
reasons.
The
other
reason
and
there's
no
members
the
public.

The
development
is
well
under
construction,
nearly
done
with
construction.
This
picture
was
from
this
past
weekend.
It
is
being
taken
from
innovation
drive
looking
south
for
please
eastside
is
designated
business
park,
industrial
within
the
reno
community,
secondary
plan
where
that
designation
permits
residential
uses,
including
limited
to
research
and
development
activities,
offices,
warehousing
and
commercial
uses,
that's
sort
of
the
business
industrial
area.

No
public
correspondence
has
been
received
to
date
on
this
application
and
most
likely,
ultimately,
as
in
that's
noted
in
the
planning
report,
the
staff
recommendation
is
the
committee
recommended
approval
of
the
application
forward
to
council
for
the
inspiration.
The
approval
would
be
conditional
upon
the
owner
entering
into
an
economy
agreement
with
the
city
which
could
ensure
notification
of
the
conditions
of
any
future
president
or
future
owners
and
informing
them
of
the
responsibilities
was
regarded
to
segments
and
outside
works,
as
well
as
authorizing
the
mayor
and
clerk
to
execute
the
condominium
agreement.

We've
had
a
very
unanimous
night.
Thank
you
very
much
everybody,
so
we
have
no
other
business.
We
have
any
comments
on
correspondence
we
may
have
received
seeing
none
date
and
time
of
the
next
meeting,
thursday
november
19
at
6
30
pm,
and
I
doubt
if
I
can
promise
you
as
smooth
a
night
as
we
had
tonight,
but
I
appreciate
that
so
it's
time
to
turn
the
sound
back
on
my
tv
and
watch
biden
win
the
election.
I
believe.
