A request for decision was received from Lucia and Giuseppi (Joe) Perrotta, 15 Fanshore Drive, Woodbridge, Ontario, L4H 1T8 The Development Planning Department made the following written comment: A site visit was conducted on January 31, 2008 which includes photo documentation of the existing shed. The following site conditions were noted. The subject lands are situated in the Sonoma Height Community, north of Rutherford Road and are currently occupied by a typical two-storey dwelling which was constructed approximately 5 years ago. The rear yards of the properties on the west side of Diploma Avenue are still open as no fences have been constructed to divide properties. The applicant has advised this Department that the rear yards will be fenced in this year with wood fencing. The applicant has constructed a rear yard garden shed which is considered to be too large and too close to the rear property line given its size. The Development Planning Department has supported sheds with similar setbacks and height increases in the past, however not for a structure this large being situated in a typical community with modest sized rear yards. The Development Planning Department considers the structure to be too large and too close to the rear property line and is of the opinion the applicant could accommodate a more appropriate structure through alternative design and landscaping which is more appropriate in scale and character with the surrounding residential uses. Additionally, the Engineering Department has identified that the existing garden shed has been constructed almost entirely within a 5m tree preservation zone (Grading Plan, EMC Group Limited, Dated Dec 20, 2006). It was noted during the site visit that there is a significant line of mature trees along the rear property line of all the properties north of the subject lands, including 2 mature trees between the garden shed and the property line on the applicant s property. The above-noted variances are not considered to be minor in nature, are not compatible with the surrounding uses, and are not appropriate for the existing development of the subject lands. On this basis, the Development Planning Department does not support Minor Variance Application A038/08. The Building Standards Department made the following written comment: A building permit is required to maintain the shed. The Engineering Department made the following written comment: 5.0m Tree preservation zone in the back yard of the subject property. There were no other comments/objections from any Departments or Agencies and any conditions requested are listed below. THAT Application No A038/08 - GIUSEPPE FAILLA., be ADJOURNED: TO FEB. 28, 2008 to allow the applicant an opportunity of meet with the Planning Department to discuss the new location and the reduction of the size of the shed.
