Dear Mr. Irwin:
Rezoning Application 2012- Z13A -06
Concession 3, East Part Lot 28
1.753 Ricl#;e Road West
VIA EMAI1,
This firm has been assisting the owner with regard to the above referenced application f <u a
Zoning fay -law amendment to permit. a site specific maximum boathouse height exception cm a
property fronting: on I.,ake Simcoc east of Shanty Bay. 1 will be attending the public inecting on
August 15 "' to speak. in support oftlie application.
"1'he requested amendment would increase the maximum boathouse height oil the subject
property firom 4.5 metres to 6.84 metres. The effect of the amendment Would be to permit the
replacement of an existing substandard boat:hot.rse with a new modern well designed one. The
new buildinso would be only 0.83 metres higher than the existino structure and, unlike that
existing boathouse, would comply with all other applicable Zoning 13y -law provisions.
Both the existing; and the proposed boathouses are two storey buildings. "this building
configuration is r.-equired In the new structure to accommodate a variety of recreational
equipment, accessories and supplies as listed in the attachment to the rezoning application form.
ft is nay submission that the requested amendment con Farms with the Official flan and maintai_ras
the intent of the Zoning 13y- law's maximum height. provision for boathouses. The relevant .
objectives ofthe Official Plan's Shoreline designation covering the subject site and area arc:
"to maintain the existing character ofthis predominantly residential area" and
"to protect the natural features of the shoreline area and the immediate. shoreline"
The subject shoreline area is predominantly residential in character including a number of
I- )oathouses ofvarious sizes and heights. The proposal to replace the existing boathouse, with a
new one would not only maintain that character but contribute to its improvement. Also, other
than expanding the area occupied by the boathouse, the key natural features will rcrl"ain. Thtse.
include the steep shoreline slope behind the boathouse site andthe treed areas at the side lot lines

and beyond the top ofthe slope. Those features will continue to serve as screening elements
between the site and portions of'the adjoining: properties. The slope will also provide a visual
separation between the boathouse and the planned new dwelling above the slope.
Section Ci'5.6 ofthe Official Plan requires the use ol'zoning provisions to "restrict t:he size and
location of boathouses on a lot'. While this policy does not specifically, reference building
height provisions, the requested zoning amendment would not signiticantly increase, the height
ofthe proposed building beyond that ofthe existing boathouse and some ofthe others i21 this area
of the "I ownshlp. The requested amendment would be consistent will' the intent of the Official
Plan to restrict the size. ol'boatllouscs.
It would appea2'that the principal intent: o the Zoning By -law's 4.5 metre boathouse height: limit
is to ensure that boathouses, as accessory uses located directly on the shoreline, do not donlin<Illt .
that shoreline or adversely affect adjacent residential uses. The proposed site specific height
limitation on the subject property would mainta.in that intent. It would also ensure that the height
of any boathouse on the lot is well below the boning By -law's .11 metre height 1 imitation filr any
dwelling, the principal building permitted on .shoreline properties.
As described previously, the subject boathouse site hacks onto a steep slope that extends above
both the existing boathouse and the proposed new one. There is a heavily treed area between the
site and the nearest. off site dwelling. the residence on the abutting lot to the east. A combination
of distance separation, the slope and treed areas serves to buffer the site from the abutting
residential lot to till; west. These leatL1rCS, the presence of Some large residences in the area and
plans for a substantial new residence to replace the lot's existing dwelling at the top ofthe slope
all combine to create a landscape in which the proposed boathouse will neither doiliinate the
shoreline nor adversely affect other properties.
"T "he requested Zoning lay -law amendment represents good planning for the site and the area.
Sincerely,
W. , o den, RIT
