REPORT
Dept. Report No. To: Prepared By:
BP 2006-031 Planning Advisory Committee Glenn White
Subject: Department:
Council Gail Raikes, Zoning By-law Building & Planning Services
Amendment Application 2006-
C.ofW. ZBA-06, Concession 1, East Date:
Part of lot 1 (Oro) June 22, 2006
Motion # 9 Trafalgar Road R.M. File #: D14 27039
Date: Roll #:
010-006-04900
BACKGROUND:
On March 16, 2006 an application for a Zoning By-law Amendment was submitted by Gail Raikes, owner of
Concession 1, East Part of Lot 1 (Oro) located at 9 Trafalgar Road. The purpose of the application is to obtain
site specific exceptions to comprehensive Zoning By-law 97-95 to permit the construction of a new dwelling.
The application was submitted by Mr. Peter Raikes, Raikes Surveying for the applicant. A copy of a site plan
that identifies the lands subject to the application is attached to this report (Attachment #2).
The Public Meeting for this application as required by the Planning Act was held on May 29, 2006. No
concerns were raised at the public meeting and no objection written comments were received from the Simcoe
County District School Board and the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, subject to a small
headwater tributary being identified on the proposed Zoning By-law as shown on Attachment #2. The purpose
of this is to review the proposed application and make recommendation as the disposition
matter.

a shoreline frontage 253 metres

Ridge Road. It is the intent of the applicant to develop the vacant severed shoreline property by building a
new dwelling with a pool and boat house, as shown on Attachment #2.
The following summary table should assist Committee in comparing the required Zoning standards to the
proposed standards:

Required Proposed
Minimum lot Area (SR Zone) 0.2 ha (0.49 ac) Severed lot - 1.5 ha (3.7 ac)
Retained lot - 0.6 ha (1.5 ac)
Minimum lot Frontage 30 m (98.4 ft) Severed lot - 6 m (19.6 ft)
Retained lot - 14 m (46 fn
Minimum Interior Side Yard 3 m (9.8 ft) 3.4 m (11.1 ft)
(for new dwellina)
Minimum Setback from Slope 23 m (75 ft) 10m (32.8 ft)
The specific zoning exceptions requested by the applicant are:
1. That the minimum required lot frontage for a lot, established in Table B1 of the Township's Zoning By-
law of 30 metres (98.4 feet) be reduced to 6 metres (19.6 feet) and to 14 metres (46 feet) for the
severed and retained lots, respectively; and,
2. That the minimum required setback from slope exceeding 33% or 3: 1 be reduced to 10 metres (32.8
feet) for the proposed pool and septic system on the severed lot.
The following information was submitted in support of the application:
A. Site Drainaqe & Elevation Plans
The applicant has submitted a site drainage plan of existing and proposed structures based on a survey
prepared by Raikes Surveying. Copies are attached (Attachment # 3).
The applicant's surveyor, Mr. Peter Raikes, has prepared a site plan of the proposed dwelling, pool, septic
system and boathouse. The plan indicates that swales will be installed along the interior property line and
around the house to provide proper drainage and surface runoff directed away from the abutting neighbour.
B. Slope Stabilitv Review
The applicant obtained the services of Geospec Engineering to provide geotechnical consultation with regard
to the stability of the existing slope on the above subject lands. The findings of the Engineering Report are that
a shallow swale will be required near the property line to direct surface run-off away from and around the front
and west sides of the proposed residences. Furthermore, the currently proposed residence location will
provide sufficient separation to allow construction of the residential development without affecting the stability
of the road embankment. The Report concludes by stating that the Revised Site Drainage Plan has shown the
dwelling, pool and septic system at or beyond the 10 metre Setback Line from Top of Slope which appears to
be geotechnically stable under Natural Hazards Guideline requirements.
report had circulated to the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation and concur Geospec
that the slope stability will be compromised with the re-Iocation of the pool and septic system
the LSRCA have no further comments respect to the siting of pool and septic. Township
has also reviewed Report and stated that he is in general concurrence the addendum;
it is a completed as a
consent.

The subject lands are designated Shoreline in the Oro-Medonte Official Plan. According to Section D10, there
are three primary objectives of the Shoreline designation:
. to maintain the existing character of this residential area;
. to protect the natural features of the immediate shoreline; and,
. to ensure development is appropriately serviced with water and sewer services.
On the issue of maintaining character of the shoreline, staff is in the opinion that this property is located in an
area of the Oro-Medonte shoreline that features large lots, wider shoreline frontages and larger estate style
homes. Staff feels that the proposal meets this general intent.
With respect to the intent of the Official Plan to protect natural features in the shoreline, it is noted that the
Zoning By-law provides the right to utilize up to 30% of a shoreline frontage for a boathouse. In this case the
applicant proposes to use about 2%. Given the stated intent of the Plan to protect natural features in the
shoreline, there may be merit in considering the proposed amendment given that it would result in less of the
natural shoreline being developed than would be permitted as-of-right by the Zoning By-law.
The Shoreline policies of the Official Plan also speak to the need for appropriate sewer and water servicing for
new development. It is understood that the proposed lot will be serviced with an individual well and septic
system. Comments from the Engineering Department are that the proposed septic system will have to be
designed to provide for the required setback from the house, top of slope and property line. The technical
review of the precise septic system design will be required as part of the normal building permit process.
It should be clear that the retained lands and the lands to be severed are both subject to the zoning
amendment, which will rezone the lands from the Agricultural/Rural (AlRU) Zone to the Shoreline Residential
Exception (SR*) Zone to reflect the deficient lot frontage for both lots. The applicant is proposing a shared
driveway to access the existing dwelling on the retained lands and to the proposed dwelling on the severed lot.
The proposed lot does abut Ridge Road; however because of the steep slope condition from the severed
lands towards Ridge Road it could not be utilized for driveway access, thus the need to access the severed
lands from Trafalgar Road. The existing fronting and access to the existing (retained) lot will be split to
provide access and frontage to the new severed lands. To provide the new configured lot frontage and access
to the retained and severed lots, an exception to the By-law minimum lot frontage provision is required. It is
noted that the resulting lot sizes of the severed and retained lots are in keeping with the other lots in the
surrounding area, therefore staff is in support of the proposed reduction in lot frontage requirement in order to
facilitate the proposed severance.
The Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority commented on the Zoning Amendment and stated they had
no objection to the proposed amendment. Their letter did note that a small headwater tributary to Lake
Simcoe was located on the subject property. The LSRCA stated that no development should occur within 30
metres of both sides of the watercourse (buffer area). The applicant's sketch of the proposed severance has
identified the location of the watercourse. Staff proposes to identify the location of the watercourse on the
Zoning By-law schedule. By identifying the watercourse on the By-law schedule, the watercourse will be
subject to Section 5.32 of By-law 97-95 which states "no building or shall be located within 30 metres
of the top of bank any watercourse, with the exception of Lake Simcoe and Bass Lake which are dealt with
by Section 5.31. is intended to address the comments the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation
It is recommended:
-
2. That a Zoning By-law Amendment for Gail Raikes, that would rezone the lands described as East Part
of Lot 1, Concession 1 (Oro), on Schedule A 1 of Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended from the
Agricultural/Rural AlRU Zone to the Shoreline Residential Exception (SR*) with the required exceptions
to minimum lot frontage, minimum setback from slope and identifying the watercourse be given
favourable consideration; and
3. That the Clerk bring forward the appropriate By-law for Council's consideration.
