Concession 1, Lot 16(Orillia)
Roll Nos:
R.M.S. File #:

Township of Oro-Medonte

4346-030-012-14300 1
Recommendation and Conditions:
It is recommended.
1. That Report No. DS201 5-0100 be received and adopted.
2. That Minor Variance Application 2014-A-08 by William and Dorothy Moore, specifically to permit
minimum lot frontages of 10 metres on Line 14 South and 20 metres on Line 15 South, on lands
located in Concession 1, Lot 16 (Orillia) Jownship of Oro-Medonte, be approved.
3. That the following conditions be imposed on the Committee's decision -
a) That notwithstanding the provisions of Table B (Agricultural/Rural Zone), the uses of the lands
shall otherwise comply with all other applicable provisions of the Zoning By-law;
b) And that the applicant be advised of the Committee's decision under the Director,
Development Services signature.
Background:
The purpose of this Minor Variance application is to recognize the existing frontage of the subject
lands on both Line 14 South and Line 15 South. The applicant's lands were previously land -locked
(did not possess any frontage on and improved public road). However, the applicants have recently
acquired from the Township portions of adjacent unimproved road allowances and have merged them
in title with their lands, resulting in the parcel now possessing a frontage of 10 metres (33 feet) on
Line 14 South and 20 metres (66 feet) on Line 15 South. The applicants have indicated that that
intend for the lands to continue to be used for agricultural purposes (managed woodlot).
The lands are also the subject of Consent Application 2014-B-02 is for a technical severance to re-
create two agricultural parcels to correct a. situation where two lots have merged on title. This
application was deferred by the Committee of Adjustment in April of 2014 and remains in deferral

while the applicants consider whether they wish to proceed with the Consent application and address
the comments of the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority and the Ministry of Transportation.
It is Planning Staff's opinion the deferred Consent application does not preclude the Committee from
considering the Minor Variance Application at this time,
Analysis:
Provincial Policies and County of Simcoe Official Plan
The policies of the Provincial Policy Statement, the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden
Horseshoe, and the County Official Plan have been reviewed and in planning Staff's opinion do not in
this case affect the proposed Minor Variances.
Do the variances conform to the general intent of the Township's Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Restricted Rural in the Township's Official Plan. The objectives of
the Restricted Rural designation are to:
• Discourage the development of scattered residential, commercial and industrial uses in the area
surrounding Barrie and Orillia;
• Maintain and preserve the rural character of the area by clearly defining the urban boundary of the
Cities of Barrie and Orillia; and
• Protect lands adjacent to the two urban municipalities from incompatible development to ensuire
that the expansion of their urban service areas in the future is cost-effective and efficient.
The permitted uses of the restricted rural designation are: agriculture as a principal use, as well as
single detached dwellings, bed and breakfast establishments, home occupations, home industries,
portable asphalt plants, seasonal home grown produce stands, and existing uses.
The Official Plan also contains more general policies designed to ensure that lands and land uses are
arranged in an orderly and efficient manner, In Planning Staff's opinion the recognition through
variances of the frontages now provided to these previously land -locked lands would conform to the
Official Plan and represents an appropriate and orderly configuration for the lands.
Do the variances conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law and are the
Variances appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The Zonring By-law requires a minimum lot frontage of 45 metres in the Agricultural/Rural Zone. The
provision represents the Township's standard for achieving relatively large lots that are consistent with
the rural character of the Township and which provide lots with direct access to maintained public roads.
In consideration of the fact that the applicant's lands previously lacked any frontage on a maintained
public road, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the variances are desirable for the use and development
of the lands and conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law, by now providing the lands with
the best available direct public road frontage under the circumstances. In the short-term the variances,
if approved, would enable the applicant's to continue to use the lands for agricultural purposes and also
construct an agricultural building on the lands should they ever intend to do so.

Page 43 of 196
6.a) 5:30 p.m. Report No. DS2015-100, Derek Witlib, Manager,...
In the event that the applicant's choose to proceed with their application to sever the lands, that
application would be assessed at that time on its own merits.
Are the variances minor?
The variances, if approved, would simply recognize the frontages that the applicant's recently achieved
through the acquisition of the adjacent road allowances. Since these variances conform to the Official
Plan and Zoning By-law and are considered desirable for the lands, Planning Staff considers the
variances to be minor.
Financial:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be appealed to the
Ontario Municipal Board and Council chooses to defend the Committee's decision.

Hi And ria and Derek,
hope all is well. The Ministry of Transportation received a notice for Minor Variance Application
2014-A-08 for the property known as Part of Lot 16, Concession 2, Between Line 14 South and Line
15 South in the Town of Oro-Medonte, to be heard at the October 7th, 2015 Committee of Adjustment
Meeting.
After review, the Ministry has no objection in principle to the Minor Variance for decreased lot
frontages at Line 14 south and Line 15 south, however, there are some notable comments which the
Planning Department, CofA, and Applicant need to be aware of.
Ministry of Transportation comments are as follows:
-The Ministry of Transportation owns the portion of Line 14 South which the subject lands front. This
portion of Line 14 South is designated a Controlled Access Highway. In order to receive legal access
from Line 14 South, the applicant must obtain an MTO Entrance Permit.
-The Ministry will not permit an Entrance onto Line 14 South and will not issue the required MTO
Entrance Permit. Access to the subject lands must be via Line 15 South.
-Any development on-site within 395m of the centre point of Highway 11 and Line 14 South or
Highway 11 and Line 15 South will require MTO approval via MTO Building and Land Use Permits.
trust that the above comments are clear. The Ministry would like to be circulated any notice of
decision for the subject lands. Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Dear Mr. Witlib:

Township of Oro-Medoate, County of Simcoe

File No: 2014-A-08
IMS File No: PVOC1543C2
Thank you for circulating the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority on the above -noted
Application for Minor Variance. It is our understanding that the purpose and effect of this
application is to allow for relief from Section 4.0 Table B - Standards for A/RU Zone of Zoning By-
law 97-95 to permit lot frontages of 10 metres and 20 metres on Line 14 S and Line 15 S,
respectively, when the bylaw requires a minimum lot frontage of 45 metres.
The subject property contains significant woodland, provincially significant wetland, Bluffs Creek
and its associated erosion and floodplain hazard lands. The LCA has reviewed this application in
the context of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP), and
Ontario Regulation 179/06 under th e Co nservation A u th orities Act.
Based on information available in our office, the frontage on Line 15 South does not appear to be a
viable entrance to the property due to the fact that it is blocked by provincially significant wetland
and crosses the floodplain of Bluffs Creek. Alternatively, access off of Line 14 South, which appears
to have been accommodated in the past through the public unopened road allowance, is recognized
as an existing condition.

Background:
6.b) 5:40 p.m. Report No.
DS2015-094)
n na Leigh,
The subject property is 13.3 hectares (33 acres) and is currently vacant. The applicant
is proposing to construct a single detached dwelling and the accessory/agricultural
building proposed through this variance in the spring of 2016. The proposed building
subject to this variance application is proposed to be used for a personal woodworking
shop as noted in the application.
The property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) in the Township's zoning By-law and the
applicant is requesting the following relief from By-law 97-95:
Required Proposed
Table B4 -C Standards for 30.0 metres 15.0 metres
Agricultural/Rural Zone —Provisions for (96.4 feet) (49.2 feet)
Buildings —Interior Side Lot Line
Analysis:
Provincial Policies
The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The Provincial Policy statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. sections: 1.1.4 — Rural Areas
and 2.3 — Agriculture are applicable to this application. These sections have been
reviewed and staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies in
the PPS.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Rural and oro Moraine Core/Corridor Area in the
Township's Official Plan, the proposed building is located within the Rural designated
lands. section c2 of the Official Plan contains policies related to the use and
development of lands in this designation. Permitted uses include single detached
dwellings and accessory buildings, as outlined in section c2.2. one of the Official
Plan's stated objectives (Section c2.1) of the Rural designation is "to preserve and
promote the rural character of the Township and the maintenance of the open
countryside."
The subject property does permit agricultural uses and agricultural accessory buildings
such as the woodworking shop proposed. The structure proposed on the site will be
designed to be consistent with the surrounding residential and agricultural uses.
Furthermore, the proposed detached agricultural/accessory building (woodworking
shop) is accessory to the single detached dwelling which is a permitted used. Based on
the above, the requested variances conform to the official Plan.

Andria Leigh, Direct...
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning Bv-law, and is the
variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) in the Township's Zoning By-
law 97-95. According to the By-law, an accessory building (woodworking shop) is
permitted pursuant the permitted uses Table A4 in accordance with the zone provisions
contained in Table B4. The proposed development of the lands requires relief with a
reduction of the interior side yard setback for the proposed building.
It is acknowledged that custom workshop is defined in the Zoning By-law as "Means
premises used by a trade, craft or guild for the manufacture, in small quantities, of made
to measure clothing or articles including the sale of such products at retail and, for the
purpose of this By-law shall include upholstering but does not include metal spinning,
woodworking or furniture manufacturing." Based on the discussions with the applicant at
the time of submission, it is the applicant's intent that the building and use for
woodworking is proposed for personal usage and not the sale of such products, which
should be confirmed.
For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered to meet the
general intent of the Zoning By-law, and would be considered appropriate for the
desirable development of the lot.
Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variance is related to the construction of an accessory building is
considered to conform to the general intent of the official Plan, to meet the general
intent of the Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable development of the lot,
and is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character of the surrounding
area, the variance is considered to be minor.

Background:
The subject property is 0.30 hectares {1.83 acres), contains a single detached dwelling,
and is located on Lake Simcoe. The applicant is proposing to construct a new one -
storey 89.8 sq.m (966 sq.ft.) boathouse with an upper deck.
The property is zoned Rural Residential One Exception 10 (RUR1 *10) in the Township's
Zoning By-law and the applicant is requesting the following relief from By-law 97-95:
Required Proposed
Section 5.6.e — Maximum height of boathouse 4.5 metres 5.5 metres
(14.7 feet) (18. 0 feet)
Analysis:
Provincial Policies
The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The Lake Simcoe Protection Plan implements objectives and development policies to
protect and enhance our natural environment for future generations. Lands subject to
the development are regulated by the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority
given its location on, Lake Simcoe. As of the preparation of this report, Development
Services Staff is awaiting comments from the LSRCA relating to Ontario Regulation
197/06 under the Conservation Authorities Act. The members of the Committee should
have significant regard to any comments or requirements of the Lake Simcoe Region
Conservation Authority.
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Sections: 1.1.4 — Rural Areas;
2.1 — Natural Heritage; 2.2 — Water; and 3.1 — Natural Hazards are applicable to this
application. The application represents limited, resource-based (waterfront) residential
development that is consistent with the PPS with respect to Rural Areas. Development
Services Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the Natural
Heritage, Water, and Natural Hazards policies of the PPS, subject to Lake Simcoe
Region Conservation Authority comments.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Shoreline within the Township's Official Plan. Section
C5 of the Township's Official Plan contains policies related to the Shoreline designation
and specifically, Section C5.1 sets out the following objectives-
• To maintain the existing character of this predominantly residential area; and
• To protect the natural features of the shoreline area and the immediate shoreline.

6.c) 5:50 p.m. Report No. DS2015-099, Adrianna Spinosa,
Plan...
The proposed variance relates to the replacement of an existing boathouse that is
accessory to a residential use. Provided this, the requested variance conforms to the
intent of the Township's official Plan.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law, is the
variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Rural Residential One Exception 10 (RUR1 *10) Zone in
the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95. Exception 10 does not relate to the proposed
application for a boathouse as it speaks to the minimum required first floor area of the
dwelling.
Table Al of the By-law identifies permitted uses within the RURII zone and single
detached dwellings are a permitted use; the proposed boathouse is accessory to the
existing dwelling and therefore, is a permitted use. Section 5.6 of the By-law identifies
the standards for boathouses. The proposed development of the lands complies with
the required setbacks however, requires relief from the maximum height of the
boathouse from th e average high water mark of Lake S i mcoe , 4.5 metres (114.7 feet).
The Zoning By -lawns requirement for a 4.5 metre height restriction is intended to restrict
development at the shoreline. The proposed boathouse height will exceed the maximum
height standard by 1.0 metre (3.2 feet). The boathouse itself is only 3.6 metres (11.8
feet) from the slab to the top of roof. However, the variance is requested for 5.5 metres
because height is measured from the average high water mark (identified as the 219.15
m.a.s.l. elevation by the Conservation Authority) and the structure is located 1.9 metres
(6.2 feet) above the high water mark due to the existing elevations. Therefore, despite
the increased height, the size of the actual structure is not expected to appear larger
than the standard permitted by the Zoning By-law.
Upon site visit, Staff has identified that the lots are large in size providing a lot of
separation between neighbouring development. Specifically, the boathouse at the
easterly property is about the same size as what is being proposed. The proposed
location appears to have little to no impact on the neighbouring properties as the
boathouse is proposed at the westerly side of the property and the westerly side lot line
is densely lined with trees. The tree line provides privacy to the property and assists to
buffer the proposed development from the adjacent neighbour.
For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered to meet the
general intent of the Zoning By-law, and would be considered appropriate for the
desirable development of the lot.
Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variance is related to the construction of a boathouse, is considered to
conform to the general intent of the Official Plan, to meet thegeneral intent of the
Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable development of the lot, and is not
anticipated to have an adverse effect on Lake Simcoe or on the character of the
surrounding area, the variance is considered to be minor.

The applicant began construction of a wraparound deck at the side/rear of the house and
reconstructed/enlarged a mudroom at the rear. The applicant's site plan is included as
Schedule 2 to this report. The Township Building Inspector issued an Order to Comply
under the Building Code for the construction without a permit. Photos taken by the
Building Inspector are included as Schedule 3 to this report.
Upon initiating the permit process with the Townships Development Services
Department, Planning Staff identified that the deck was constructed in a location that is
not permissible in the Township's Zoning By-law. The property is zoned Agricultural/Rural
(A/RU) Zone and Environmental Protection (EP) Zone. The lands subject to the
deck/addition are zoned AU however, the Zoning By-law requires a buffer from the EP
Zone boundary and therefore, the applicant is requesting the following relief:
Required

Analysis:
Provincial Policies
Proposed
2.0 metres
(6.6 feet)
The policies of the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe have been reviewed
and do not affect in the context of the proposed development.
The subject lands are regulated by the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority and
as of the preparation of this report, Development Services Staff is awaiting comments
from the NCA relating to Ontario Regulation 197/06 under the Conservation
Authorities Act. The members of the Committee should have significant regard to any
comments or requirements of the Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority.
The Provincial Policy Statement provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Sections: 1.1.4 — Rural Areas
and 2.3 — Agriculture are applicable to this application. These sections have been
reviewed and Staff is of the opinion that this application is consistent with the policies in
the PPS.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Official Plan?
The subject lands are designated Agricultural in the Township's Official Plan, and
Section C1 of the Official Plan contains policies related to the use and development of
lands in this designation. Permitted uses include single detached dwellings, as outlined
in Section C1.2. One of the Official Plan's stated objectives (Section c1.1 of the
Agricultural designation is "to protect land suitable for agricultural production from
development and land uses unrelated to agriculture."

DS2015-098, Adrianna Spinosa, Plan...
Due to lot size, the subject property does not permit for agricultural production however,
the residential use is permitted therefore the deck and mudroom addition are suitable
development. Based on the above, the requested variances conform to the Official Plan.
Does the variance conform to the general intent of the Zoning By-law, and is the
variance appropriate for the desirable development of the lot?
The subject property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone and Environmental
Protection (EP) Zone according to the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95. The existing
single detached dwelling is entirely within the A/RU Zone of the property and is a
permitted use per Table A4 of the Zoning By-law. However, Section 5.28 of the Zoning
By-law states:
"Notwithstanding any other provision in this By-law, no building or structure, with
the exception of boathouses and pumphouses, shall be located within 30 metres
(98.4 feet) of the boundaries of the Environmental Protection Zone.!!
On this basis, the existing dwelling is a non -complying structure as it is located within
the required 30 metre buffer. For the purpose of addressing structures that existed at
the time the By-law came into place and are now considered a non -complying structure,
the By-law goes on to state:
"This provision, shall also not prevent the expansion or replacement of buildings
or structures, with the exception of boathouses and pumphouses, that existed on
the effective date of this By-law within this setback area, provided the expansion
or replacement does not have the effect of reducing the setback from the
Environmental Protection Zone boundary or increasing the volume or floor area
of a building in a minimum required yard."
Meaning, had the deck not been constructed on the side of the house where the EP
Zone lays, the construction would have met the By-law. Since the deck and mudroom,
expansion are located on the side of the house closest to the Environmental Protection
Zone, the minor variance for a reduced setback to the EP boundary is necessary.
Staff are of the opinion that the increased floor area of the mudroom and the uncovered,
unenclosed deck is minimal and will not adversely affect the environmental buffer,
pending comments from the Noftawasaga Valley Conservation Authority.
For the reasons outlined above, the requested variance is considered to meet the
general intent of the Zoning By-law, and would be considered appropriate for the
desirable development of the lot.
Is the variance minor?
As the proposed variance is related to the construction of a deck is considered to
conform to the general intent of the Official Plan, to meet the general intent of the
I
Zoning By-law, to be appropriate for the desirable development of the lot, and is not
anticipated to have an adverse effect on the character of the surrounding area, the
variance is considered to be minor.

Hello Derek;
Please find the NVCA comments included:
• 2015-13-22 (McCaskie); The comments have been attached to this email, and a revised
severance map provided. NVCA comments seek to ensure natural heritage and hazard
features are not bisected by the proposed severance. Development on the severed
property will require a permit or approval from the Conservation Authority.
• 2015-A-34 (Davies); NVCA staff have reviewed this proposed minor variance to permit an
addition and deck to an existing single family dwelling. The proposed work sought relief
for the setback requirement to an environmental feature (tributary of Coldwater River).
Technical review of this proposed work deemed the addition acceptable, and the NVCA
would not have objected to the minor variance application. Notice that approval or a
permit from the Conservation Authority would be required, would have been included
within the minor variance comments.
As the construction of the proposed work has already occurred, NVCA staff are unable to
provide approval for the proposed and now completed deck and addition.
If you have any additional questions do not hesitate to contact me directly. Thank you for your
consideration.
Kind regards,

Background:
The purpose of Consent application 2015-B- is to sever a farm parcel., as follows:
The lands to be severed are vacant of buildings and comprise approximately 12
hectares (29 acres) of cultivated land and approximately 26.3 hectares (65 acres) of
forested land. The applicants have advised that they intend to construct a dwelling and
a barn on these lands, and to keep these lands in cultivation.
The lands to be retained contain and existing dwelling, barn, silos and a small farm
building. These lands comprise approximately 29.5 hectares (73 acres) of cultivated
land and approximately 12.5 hectares (31 acres) of forested land. The applicants have
advised that they intend to retain the buildings on these lands for continued residential
and agricultural use of the lands and buildings.
Analysis:
The purpose of application 2015-B-22 is to sever the subject lands for agricultural
purposes, resulting in the creation of one new agricultural lot.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be

In prime agricultural areas, the PPS discourages lot creation and states that new lots
may only be permitted under strict criterion. Policy 2.3.4.1 states that lot creation for
agricultural uses is permitted provided that the lots are of a size appropriate for the type
of agricultural use common in the area and are sufficiently large to maintain flexibility for
future changes in the type or size of agricultural operations.
The proposed severance would result in severed and retained parcels possessing lot
areas of 38 hectares (94 acres) and 42 hectares (1104 acres) respectively and these
sizes are consistent with the typical farm parcel sizes in Oro-Medonte and, in Planning
Staff's opinion, both parcels would remain flexible for the types of agricultural activities
common to the area. Therefore, the lot creation is consistent with the Provincial Policy
Statement, 2014.
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
This application has been reviewed by Planning Staff with respect to the Places to Grow
policies. Section 2.2.9.2 of these policies state that "[development] outside of
settlement areas may be permitted in rural areas in accordance with Policy 2.22 1 (i),
I
which states that "[population] . growth will be accommodated by ... directing
development to settlement areas, except where necessary for development related to
... rural land uses that cannot be located in settlement area e'.
Policy 2.2.9.3 also states that new lots will be directed to settlement areas and may be
allowed in rural areas in site-specific locations with approved zoning or designation that
permits this type of development in a municipal official plan as of the effective date of
this Plan. As stated in this report, the Township Official Plan and Zoning By-law
contemplate this type of development and would therefore satisfy this policy.
As previously stated, the purpose of the subject Consent Application is to sever an
agricultural lot. In this regard, it is noted that, agricultural parcels are not a form of
development that should be directed to a settlement area and therefore the application
would conform to the Places to Grow policies of the Province.
County of Simcoe Official Plan
Section 3.6.6 of the County of Simcoe Official Plan states that agricultural areas will be
protected for agricultural and compatible uses and should generally not be less than 35
hectares or the original survey lot size. The proposed severance would result in severed
and retained parcels possessing lot areas of 38 hectares (94 acres) and 42 hectares (104
acres) respectively, which would be in conformity with the policy.
Township Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Agricultural in the Township's Official Plan. Section
1.3.1 of the Agricultural designation states that it is the intent of the Plan that land which
is suitable for agricultural use be protected from development and land uses unrelated
tog riculture. The Official plan supports the development of agricultural uses and the
proposed consent would result in agricultural parcels which exceed the minimum lot

area requirements for agricultural purposes and maintain the lot area consistent within
this area. On this basis, the application is considered to be appropriate and generally
conforms to the Official Plan.
Zoning B.V-1aw
The subject property is currently zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) and Environmental
Protection (EP) Zone in the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as amended. The
proposed severed and retained lots would continue to comply with the provisions of the
Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone, as the minimum lot area and frontage have been met.
Therefore, the application would comply with the provisions as prescribed by the Zoning
By-law.
Minimum Distance Separation (MDSi
The subject lands are not currently being used for livestock purposes, however there is a
livestock barn on the proposed retained parcel. In accordance with the policies of the
Provincial Policy Statement 2014, the County Official Plan and the Township's Official
Plan, new lot creation must comply with Minimum Distance Separation 1 (MDS1)
provisions for the purpose of a distance buffer between livestock uses and new lots.
MDS1 separations are based on a formula for which the variables include the type of
livestock, the capacity of the barn and the amount of tillable hectares on the lands. In
order to ensure compliance with IVIDS1, Planning Staff recommends that, as a condition
of consent, a IVIDS1 calculation be completed and in the event that the distance from the
barn to the proposed new lot line does not comply with IVIDS1, that the be required to
retrofit the barn (e.g. replace livestock stalls with storage space) to reduce the livestock
capacity to the necessary level of IVIDS1 compliance.

Re: Application for Consent 2015-B-22
778 Line 2 South, Lot 4, 2nd Range
Township of Oro-Medonte (Formerly Township of Oro)
The Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) has reviewed this application for
consent in accordance with Natural Heritage policies established under the Provincial Policy
Statement and the NVCA's Planning and Regulation Guidelines (August 2009). We offer the
following for consideration by the Committee.
The NVCA understands this application will result in the creation of an additional lot. The
properties would be bisected at the rear by a seasonal tributary of Willow Greek. Portions of the
proposed severance and retained parcels include evaluated Provincially Significant Wetlands
(Shanty Say Swamp), unevaluated wetland features and associated setback buffers. Additional
portions at the rear of the retained property appear to exhibit wetland characteristics. While the
NVCA has no objection to the approval of this application, we believe that an alternative
configuration for the severance should be considered, that ensures natural heritage and hazard
features are not bisected.
A draft plan for the severance has been attached for discussion purposes. We are available to
discuss this application further if necessary.
We advise a significant part of the properties are regulated by the NVCA where a permit is
required under the Conservation Authorities Act prior to any development. Any development of
the severed property will need to comply with NVCA policies and regulations. An entranceway
would be directed to the southeast corner of the property and any building envelope to the
existing area outside of the NVCA regulated area.
Please note our approach is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement whereby natural
features shall be protected for the long term and the NVCA's Planning and Regulation
Guidelines where the establishment of lot lines which bisect Natural Heritage and Natural
Hazard features is avoided.

(LC*1 16) Zones to the Residential one Exception 260 (R1 *260) and Residential one
Exception 261 (R1 *261) Zones. The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment was to
recognize a site specific minimum lot frontage and minimum lot area requirement and to
permit personal storage space in a multi -residential building with two residential
apartments with a reduced minimum lot frontage, reduced lot area, and reduced
minimum front yard setback.
The applications were originally submitted in early 2014 and were the subject of the
legislated Public Meeting in december 2014. The application submission included a
number of technical reports in support of the application that addressed the matters
raised by the commenting agencies and the Township.
Analysis:
Does the application conform to the following policies?
Township's official Plan
The subject lands were designated Rural Exception by official Plan Amendment No. 38
which added a new subsection 02.4.2 under the Rural designation as follows:
"C2.4.2— Plan 1, E Pt Lot 16, W Pt Lot 16, Pt Blk H and RP 61 R-37843, Part 1, and Pt
Lots 16 and 16, Pt Blk H, Township of oro-Medonte
Notwithstanding any other policies in this Plan, on the lands shown as being subject to
this Section on Schedule A to this Plan, the severance of the property for three new
residential lots to be created with lot frontages of 21.0 metres and lot areas of 0.12
hectares resulting in a total of five residential lots is permitted.
2.1 .1 Map Amendment
Schedule A - Land Use is hereby amended by re -designating the lands as shown on
Schedule A attached hereto from the Rural to the Rural Exception designation and
indicating the lands shown on Schedule A attached hereto as subject to Section 02.4.2.
Permitted uses in this designation include residential uses as proposed by these
applications. The proposed use of the lands for residential purposes would conform
with these policies. The site specific policies further permit the consideration of the lot
creation applications now being proposed by the landowner.
A review of the general consent policies in Section D2.2.1, New Lots by consent -
General Criteria, is also required:
Prior to issuing provisional consent for a new lot for any purpose, the
Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the lot to be retained and
the lot to be severed:

Provisional consent may be granted subject to appropriate conditions of
approval for the severed and/or retained lot.
Staff comment: the applications conform to the Planning Act and staff is
satisfied that the lots may be created by consent rather than by a plan of
subdivision.
Based on the above, it is Planning staff's opinion that the applications conform to the
Official Plan.
Township's Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject lands were rezoned through By-law 2016-149 in August 2015 from the
Residential one (R1) and `Local Commercial Exception 116 (LC*1 16) Zones to the
Residential one Exception 260 (R1 *260) and Residential one Exception 261 (R1 *261)
Zones. The purpose of the Zoning By-law Amendment was to recognize a site specific
minimum lot frontage and minimum lot area requirement and to permit personal storage
space in a multi -residential building with two residential apartments with a reduced
minimum lot frontage, reduced lot area, and reduced minimum front yard setback.
The applications comply with the Zoning by-law amendment as approved by council in
August 2015.

County's official Plan
The subject Lands are in the area designated as Rural and Agricultural in the county of
Simcoe official Plan. The objectives of the Rural and Agricultural designation include
3.6.2: To provide in non -prime agricultural areas for rural uses such limited residential,
subject to the other policies of this Plan including Section 3.6.8, while protecting the
rural character (Section 3.6.2) and to encourage maintenance and restoration of natural
heritage areas where appropriate (Section 3.6.3). In addition, Section 3.6.7 states that
in rural areas, permitted uses include residential lots created by , as proposed
roP osed
by this application. Residential use ,and the creation of three residential lots by consent
are in conformity with the objectives of the County Plan.
The proposed lots represent limited residential development by consent (severance)
which is consistent with the policies of the County Plan.
Provincial Pol-icy Statement (2014}
The intent of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is to build strong and healthy
communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development
patterns. Section 1.1.1 of the PPS seeks to manage and direct land use patterns to
achieve efficient and resilient development and land use patterns whereby healthy,
liveable and safe communities are sustained by: promoting efficient development and
land use patterns which sustain the financial well-being of the municipality over the long
term and through accommodating an appropriate range and mix of residential. Further
Section 1.1.5 Rural lands permits limited residential development and promotes
development that is compatible with the rural landscape and is sustained by the rural
service levels. The proposed residential development of the subject lands with a lot fabric
that is consistent with the surrounding properties is considered to be consistent with these
policies.
Planning Staff is of the opinion that since the proposed lots would result in residential
development compatible with the rural landscape and sustained by the existing rural
service levels, and since there are now planning measures in place that would ensure the
long term protection from development of the existing natural and hazard features
(woodland and wetland), the applications are considered to be consistent with the
Provincial Policy Statement, 2014.
Places to Grow — Growth Pian for the Greater „Golden Horseshoe, 2006
The application has been reviewed with reference to the Places to Grow policies that
have been in place since 2006. In Policy 2.2.9.2 — Development outside of settlement
areas may be permitted in rural areas in accordance with Policy 2.2.2.1 (i). Policy
2.2.2.1 (i) further states that development should be directed to settlement areas except
where necessary for development related to the management or use of resources,
resource-based recreational activities and rural land uses that cannot be located in
settlement areas. In addition Policy 2.2.9.3 states that new multiple lots for residential
development will be directed to settlement areas and may be allowed in rural areas,
such as proposed though this development, in site specific locations with approved

zoning or designation that permits this type of development in a municipal official plan,
as of the effective date of this Plan. As stated above, the subject lands are located
within a Rural Exception designation however at the time of the Growth Plan coming
into effect that lands were located within a zone which would permit the form of
residential development proposed through these application and did provide for limited
residential development to occur.
On the basis of the above, it is Planning Staff's opinion that the proposed consent
applications would conform to the applicable policies of the Growth Plan.

RE: Consent Application 2015-B-23, 2015-B-24 & 2015-B-25 (Lover's Harbour Inc.)
Proposed Official Plan Amendment No.38
Part of Lot 1, Concession 1 East Penetanguishene Road
(298-302 Shanty Bay Road, County Road 20)
Former Township of Oro
Now Township of Oro-Medonte
Thank you for circulating the above -noted applications to the County of Simcoe for review. These
applications are seeking to create three additional residential lots. The applications submitted to the
Township request lot creation from two existing parcels known as 298 and 302 Shanty Bay Road (County
Road 20). 298 Shanty Bay Road has frontage on County Road 20, and 302 Shanty Bay Road has frontage
on both Colborne Street and County Road 20, are designated Rural and are therefore subject to the Rural
and Transportation policies of the County Official Plan. Please note the subject lands are also subject to
proposed Official Plan Amendment No.38 adopted by the Township of Oro-Medonte Council and currently at
the County for review.
County Official Plan policy 3.7.8 states limited residential development may be created by consent in the
Rural designation, however County Official Plan policy 4.8.32 restricts entrances from a County Road to
individual residential lots created after June 30, 1996, except in accordance with County of Simcoe By-law
5544. Although the current properties have multiple access points onto the County Road, Section 2.4 of
County Entrance By-law 5544 states, "One legally existing entrance to each lot of record at the time of the
passage of this by-law will be permitted". Furthermore County Official Plan policy 4.8.33 states "The
existence of multiple entrances to a parcel of land does not imply that additional lots can be created".
It is County planning staff's understanding the proposed Official Plan Amendment, requesting an exception
to the Rural lot creation policies, is required to facilitate the creation of additional lots on the subject lands.
The basis of the proposed Official Plan Amendment, as submitted to the County for a decision, states the
result of the proposed Official Plan Amendment "will be a total of five (5) residential lots. One of these lots
will specifically recognize an existing structure which serves as personal storage as well as two (2) multi -
residential apartments which is required to be demolished within 3 years of adoption."
Consistent with comments the County provided to the Township on similar consent applications dated April
261 2010 and July 8, 2010 and Official Plan Amendment pre -consultation comments dated March 28, 2014
and December 5, 2014 the County's Entrance By-law states in section 2.5.3, "Where a subdivision or
individual lot fronts on both a County Road and a Local Road, the entrance will be from the Local Road,
where feasible".

DS2015-095, Andria Leigh, Director...
It has also been noted to both the Applicant and Township through pre -consultation that no new entrances
onto County Road 20 shall result from the proposed development. Additional lots created as a result of the
proposed Official Plan Amendment and any subsequent consent application(s) are required to have an
entrance from the local road (Colborne Street).
County staff therefore advise additional residential lot creation fronting on County Road 20 cannot be
supported and encourage the Applicant consider an alternative lot configuration for the subject lands. The
proposed consent applications are premature in advance of a decision on the associated proposed Official
Plan Amendment. In addition, County staff could not support the proposed consent applications at this time,
as they do not conform to the Transportation policies of the County Official Plan and do not meet the
requirements of the County Entrance By-law 5544.
Please forward a copy of the decision. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
Sincerely,
The Corporation of the County of Simcoe

Recommendation(s): Requires Action For Information Only
It is recommended:
1. That Report No. DS 015-102 be received and adopted.
2. That the Development Services Committee grant provisional consent to
Application 2015-13-26 being to permit a boundary adjustment of a 0.51 hectare
1. 2 acre) parcel, having app roxi rn ate ly 50.5 metres ( feet) of frontage,
subject to the following conditions:
a) That the severed lands, be merged in title with the abutting property to the
north at 836 Line 13 North.
b) That Section 50(3) and 50(5) shall apply to any subsequent conveyance of, or
other transaction involving, the identical subject parcel of land. Therefore,
once the subject parcel of land has been conveyed to the owner of the
abutting parcel to the north, the subject parcel and the said abutting parcel
shall merge in title and become one parcel of land. A solicitor's written
undertaking shall be provided to the Secretary -Treasurer indicating that the
necessary steps will be taken to implement the conveyance and to
consolidate the parcels to one Property Identifier Number.
c) That one copy of a Registered Reference Plan of the subject lands prepared
by an Ontario Land Surveyor be submitted to the Committee Secretary-
Treasurer-,
d) That the applicant's solicitor prepare and submit a copy of the proposed
conveyance for the parcel severed, for review by the Municipality;
e) That all municipal taxes be paid to the Township of Oro-Medonte;
f) That the Certificate of Consent be issued utilizing Form 4, Section 53 (42) of
the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, to merge the parcels; and
g) That the conditions of consent imposed by the Committee be fulfilled within
one year from the date of the giving of the notice.

3. And that the applicant be advised of the Development Services committee's
decision under the Director, Development Services signature.
Background:
The subject lands are located on the west side of Line 13 North, to the south of Old
Barrie Road. A Location Map is included as Schedule 1 to this report.
Consent 2015-B-26 is an application for boundary adjustment affecting 848 Line 13
North (the "granting lands") and 836 Line 13 North (the "benefitting lands"). The
boundary adjustment would result in conveyance of a parcel, having an area of
approximately 0.51 hectare (1.26 acres) and 50.594 metres (166 feet) of frontage, from
the granting lands to the benefitting lands. As a result, the granting lands would retain
an area of approximately 357 hectares (88.29 acres) and 270 metres. (6816 feet) of
combined frontage, and the benefitting lands would be increased to approximately 1.02
hectares (2.53 acres) and 105.5 metres (346 feet) of frontage. No new lot would be
created.
The granting lands presently support a single detached dwelling, agricultural lands, a
forested area and 5 ponds. The parcel to be severed consists of vacant agricultural
lands and an area or relatively steep slope. The benefitting parcel contains an existing
single detached dwelling.
A sketch of the proposed boundary adjustment is at Schedule 2 of this report.
Policies, Legislation and Analysis:
Provincial Policy Statement 2014
The intent of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is to build strong and healthy
communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development
patterns. Section 2.3.4.2 of the PPS states that "[lofl adjustments ... may be permitted
for legal or technical reasons", which the PPS defines as "severances for purposes such
as ... minor boundary adjustments, which do not result in the creation of a new lot. 13
While no new lot is being created, the proposed boundary adjustment would result in
the granting and benefitting lands continuing to meet the minimum required lot area and
frontage of the Township's Zoning By-law, and would not materially affect the viability of
the retained lands for continued agricultural use. On this basis, the proposed boundary
adjustment is considered to conform to the policies of the Provincial Policy Statement,
2014.

Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
Section 2.2.2 of the Places to Grow Growth Plan contains policies for W anaging
G rowth" , and states in Section 2.2.9.3 that "New ... lots ... for residential development
... may be allowed in rural areas in site-specific locations with approved zoning or
designation that permits this type of development in a municipal official plan
The Places to Grow Growth Plan does not specifically address applications for
boundary adjustments, and instead defers to policies within the local municipal Official
Plan. As stated above, the proposed boundary adjustment conforms with municipal
planning policies and is therefore considered to conform with the Growth Plan policies.
County of Simcoe Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Greenland and Rural and Agricultural in the County of
Simcoe Official Plan. Section 3.3 of the county's Official Plan contains "General
Subdivision and Development Policies" and, specifically, Section 3.3.4 states that
"[consents] for the purpose of boundary, adjustments and consolidation of land holdings
are permitted."
Planning Staff also notes that Section 3.6.11 of the County Official Plan states that rural
residential lots should be restricted to a maximum size of approximately 1 hectare (2.4
acres and the size of the applicant's proposed merged lot would conform to this policy.
The proposed boundary adjustment would not result in the creation of a new lot, and is
considered to conform to the policies of the County of Simcoe Official Plan.
Township Official Plan
The applicant's lands are designated Agricultural, Oro Moraine Core/Corridor Area and
Mineral Aggregate Resources - Licensed in the Township's Official Plan. These
designations do not in this case preclude or conflict with the proposed boundary
adjustment. Policy, guidance with respect to boundary adjustments is found in Section
02.2.2 of the Oro-Medonte Official Plan, which states that "[a] consent may be
permitted for the purpose of modifying lot boundaries, provided no new building lot is
created [and] the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the boundary
adjustment will not affect the viability of the use of the properties affected as intended by
this Plan
The proposed boundary adjustment is requested to enlarge the benefitting lands for
continued residential use, which is a permitted use, and the application would result in
reconfiguration of lands that would continue to comply with the minimum required lot
areas and frontages as set out in the Zoning By-law.
Planning Staff has carefully considered the potential impact of this application on the
remnant agricultural lands and has concluded that despite the potential loss of
approximately 0.51 hectare (1.26 acres) of agricultural land, the agricultural capability of
the retained parcel is not expected to be materially reduced. Based on Planning Staff's
site visit, it is apparent that the slope and shape of the parcel to be severed can make it

difficult for the parcel to be worked and the parcel did not appear to significantly contribute
to the balance of the applicant's farm land.
The proposed boundary adjustment would therefore be considered to conform to the
general intent of the Official Plan for the Township.
Township of Oro-Medonte Zoning B,y-law No. 97-95, as amended
The subject property is currently zoned Agricultural/Rural A/R Zone and Mineral
Aggregate Resources One (MAR1) Zone in the Township's Zoning By-law 97-95, as
amended. The proposed merged and retained lots would continue to comply with the
provisions of the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone, as the minimum lot area and frontage
have been met. Therefore, the application would comply with the provisions as
prescribed by the Zoning By-law.

Thank you for circulating the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority on the above -noted
Application for Consent. It is our understanding that the purpose and effect of this application is to
allow a boundary adjustment affecting 848 Line 13 North (granting parcel) and 839 Line 13 North
(benefitting parcel). The LSRCA has reviewed this application in the context of the Provincial Policy
Statement (PPS), the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan (LSPP), and Ontario Regulation 179/06 under the
Conserva tion A uth crit es Act.
it is our understanding that the benefitting parcel was created as part of Consent Application 2012-
B-41 (Notice of Decision dated January 24, 2013). As a condition of the decision for Application
2012-1-41 the LSRCA required a tree preservation plan for the severed lot and a planting plan for
the retained parcel to be completed to the satisfaction of the LSRCA and the Township. To our
knowledge these conditions have not been satisfied.
As such, we recommend that any approval of this application be subject to the following conditions:
1. That a tree preservation plan shall be prepared and implemented for the proposed benefitting
parcel to the satisfaction of the Township and the LSRCA.
2. That a planting plan shall be prepared and implemented for lands on the granting parcel to the
satisfaction of the Township and the LRA.

Background:
The purpose of this report is to consider Consent Application 2015-B-27 which proposes
to permit a boundary adjustment between 1241 Bass Lake Sideroad East and 2095 Line
10 North; a sketch of the proposed boundary adjustment is attached (Schedule 2). There
is currently a single detached dwelling on each of the two properties affected by this
application.
The boundary adjustment is twofold would result in conveyance of:
0 Part 1: a parcel having an area of 1.1625 hectares (2.87 acres) and, approximately
29 metres (95 feet) of frontage on Bass Lake Sideroad East, from 1241 Bass Lake
Sideroad East to 2095 Line 10 North; and
* Part 2: a parcel having an area of 1.1669 hectares (2.88 acres) and no frontage
on a public road from 2095 Line 10 North to 1241 Bass Lake Sideroad East.
As a result, 1241 Bass Lake Sideroad East would retain an area of 20.2 hectares (49.99
acres) and 366-83 metres (1,204 feet) of frontage along Bass Lake Sideroad East, and;
2095 Line 10 North would retain an area of 12.25 hectares (30.27 acres) and 306.35
metres (1,Oa5 feet) of frontage along Bass Lake Sideroad East and approximately 832.37
metres (2,730 feet) of frontage along Line 10 North. Although the adjustment will result in
0.044 hectares (0-01 acres) of land transferred from 1241 Bass Lake Sideroad East to
2095 Line 10 North, the purpose of the application is to reconfigure the lot lines. No new
lot would be created.
The applicant is requesting the adjustment to provide more land around the dwelling
located at 2095 Line 10 North, allowing for a greater spatial separation than what exists.
Analysis:
Provincial Policies
The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. The intent of the PPS is to build
strong and healthy communities while at the same time, promoting efficient land use
and development patterns. Lot adjustments may be permitted for legal or technical
reasons (Section 2.3.4.2) including boundary adjustments which do not result in the
creation of a new lot.
The policies of the Places to Grow Growth Plan have been reviewed and do not affect
the context of the proposed development as it does not specifically address applications

DS2015-097, Adrianna Spinosa,
for boundary adjustments and rather, deferred to policies within the local municipal Plan...
Official Plan.
Based on the above, the proposed boundary adjustment conforms to applicable
Provincial policies.
County Official- Plan
The subject lands are designated 'Rural & Agricultural' and 'Greenlands' in the County
of Simcoe Official Plan. Consents for the purpose of boundary adjustments and
consolidation of land holdings are permitted (Section 3.3.4) and therefore the proposed
application confirms to the policies of the County's Official Plan.
Township Official Plan
The subject lands are designated Oro Moraine Core -Corridor Area within the Township
Official Plan and Section 131 of the Plan contain policies relating to development within
this designation. The lands are identified as 'Oro Moraine Core Areas' on Schedule B —
Natural Features — of the Plan. As the proposed boundary adjustment is not considered
to be "major development" and does not introduce any new uses, Staff are satisfied that
the policies in Section 131 are met.
However, the policies within Section 131.10 omit specific provisions relating to the
modification of lot boundaries and therefore, Section D2.2.2 applies:
"a consent may be permitted for the purpose of modifying lot boundaries,
provided no new building lot is created. In reviewing an application for such a
boundary adjustment, the Committee of Adjustment shall be satisfied that the
boundary adjustment will not affect the viability of the use of the properties
affected as intended by this Plan, In addition, the Committee of Adjustment shall
be satisfied that the boundary adjustment will not affect the viability of the
agricultural parcels affected."
As the applicant is not proposing a new lot be created, the subject lands currently
support rural residential uses, and is rated a non -prime agricultural land (Soil Class 4 -
in the Canada Land Inventory, the proposed adjustment conforms to the Township
Official Plan.
Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject lands are zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) and Mineral Aggregate Resource
Two (MAR2) Zones in the Township Zoning By-law 97-95, as identified on Schedule 3.
Table B4 of the By-law contains standards applicable to the A/RU and MAR2 Zones and
Staff note that the subject lands currently complies with the required lot size and
frontage.
The applicant is proposing an irregular boundary adjustment to shift the shared interior
lot line west and east. The land swap of two narrow parcels will not impose any situation
of non-compliance with the zoning by-law with regards to lot size, frontage, or setbacks
from existing buildings. -

DS2015-103, Derek Witlib, Manager,...
The proposed easement would be located within the area identified on the sketch
supplied by the applicant (See Schedule 2).
Analysis:
The purpose of application 2015-B-28 is to permit an easement for Access and utility
purposes and no new lots are proposed to be created as a result of the easement request.
Financial / Legal Implications / Risk Management:
Potential financial and legal implications should the decision of the Committee be
appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board and Council chooses to defend the Committee's
decision.
Policies/Legislation:
Provincial Policy Statement 2014
The intent of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) is to build strong and healthy
communities while at the same time promoting efficient land use and development
patterns. The PPS directs that designated settlement areas are to be the focus of growth,
with a mix of densities and land uses, for the purposes of achieving the efficient use of
land and infrastructure. The proposed easement would accommodate infrastructure as
contemplated by the PPS.
Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe
The application has been reviewed with reference to the Place to Grow policies that
have been in place since 2006, In reviewing the Places to Grow Growth Plan, there are
no direct consent policies that apply to the proposed easement application.
In analyzing the proposed severance for the easement, staff reviewed the County of
Simcoe Official Plan, Provincial Policy Statement and Places to Grow legislation. Given
the subject lands are located within an identified Settlement Area, the proposed
severance constitutes a permitted use in accordance with the Settlement Area policies of
the Official Plan and is consistent with the County of Simcoe and Provincial policies,
including the Growth Plan.
Counter of Sim-coe Official Plan
The Township has circulated the application to the County of Simcoe Planning
Department, who has not commented on this application as of the preparation of this
report. In reviewing the proposed consent application for the proposed easement, the
County of Simcoe Official Plan does not have any specific policies in regards to
easements. It is staff's opinion that the County Official Plan does not regulate or prohibit
such an easement for utility purposes.

Township Official Plan
The subject lands are located within the Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area and are
designated Horseshoe Valley Village according to Schedule 'D" to the Township's Official
Plan. Section C14.3-3.1 of the Official Plan states that the principal use of land in the
Horseshoe Valley Village designation shall be a variety of non-residential uses
commercial and service uses, but also permits medium density housing such as
townhouses, apartments and multiple dwellings. Section C.143.1.2 and C14.3.3.2 of the
Official Plan contain detailed policies pertaining to the development of the lands in
Horseshoe Valley in relation to various land use and infrastructure considerations (i.e.
timing/phasing of development, traffic, County Road improvements, stormwater
management and servicing) that have been identified in a Comprehensive Development
Plan for the area that was adopted by Council in 2003.
The proposed consent for an easement for access and utility purposes would facilitate
the provision of services to the development in conformity with the Official Plan. While
there are no specific policies in the Official Plan regarding easements for utility purposes,
Staff's opinion is that this application conforms to the Official Plan.
Zoning By-law
The subject property is currently zoned Village One (V1) Zone in the Township's Zoning
By-law 97-95, as amended. This zone regulates development and uses, but does not
prohibit utility and access easements. There are no provisions within Zoning By-law 97-
95 that specify the location or size of easements. On this basis, the application would
comply with the provisions as prescribed by the Zoning By-law.
Corporate Strategic Goals:
Quality of Life — "To contribute to an enriched quality of life for residents by maintaining
Oro-Medonte's natural beauty and country -like character and by providing opportunities
that encourage community participation in activities and recreational programs.,'
Sustainability — "To build an increasingly sustainable community with regard for and
sensitivity to the needs of future generations."
Safe & Healthy Community — "To ensure that oro -1 edonte policies and programs
promote a safe and secure environment while encouraging healthy lifestyles."
External Relations — "To be recognized as a 'good neighbour' with municipalities in the
local area and to be proactive in promoting the interests of the Township at the County,
Provincial and Federal levels of Government and with private sector organizations.
Financial Stewardship — "To continue to improve value received in the expenditure of
tax dollars as well as maintaining a financial position that is fiscally sound for the
Township.7,9

Good afternoon Mr. Witlib:
We are in receipt of your letter dated October 7, 2015 with regard to consent 2015-B-29. To me it looks like this will not
impact the lands that are currently occupied by Carriage Ridge Resort, 3303 Line 3 North or Carriage Hills Resort, 90

Thank you for any help you can give.

supports a single detached dwelling, a three-bedroom bed and breakfast (contained
within a second detached dwelling), a detached garage, and a bank barn.
A portion of the lands are proposed to be rezoned to a site-specific Agricultural/Rural
Exception (A/RU*#) Zone to permit indoor and outdoor special events such as banquets,
weddings, receptions, or similar functions. The proposed new uses are in addition to the
existing permitted uses of the Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone, including a Bed and
Breakfast. The bank barn is the primary structure for the indoor element of the events and
has been up brought up to standards for `assembly occupancy' in the Building Code and
Fire Code for a maximum capacity of 150 persons. The portion of the property subject to
the proposed amendment perimeters the existing development, as shown on Schedule 2
of this report.

The subject property is a rural, treed site, adjacent to the Horseshoe Valley Settlement
Area. There are ten (10) residential lots, containing single detached dwellings, abutting
the north and westerly side of the property, and ninety-six (96) residential units within the
Cathedral Pines neighbourhood. The dwellings on the abutting properties are located as
close as [approximately] 85 metres (288 feet) away from the barn.
In June of 2014, a one-year Temporary. Use By-law was granted by council for the
proposed uses. The use was granted on a temporary basis to provide the Township with
an opportunity to assess the compatibility of special events on the subject lands with the
surrounding area. Throughout the 2014 and 2015 seasons, Planning Staff, Council, and
Municipal By-law Enforcement Staff received a considerable amount of complaints from
the public. The purpose of this report is to consider an application for the permanent re-
zoning of the property.

Provincial Policies:
Provincial Policy Statement, 2014
The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe, 2066
The Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) provides policy direction on matters of provincial
interest related to land use planning and development. Section 1.1 --- Managing and
Directing Land Use to Achieve Efficient and Resilient Development and Land Use
Patterns — is applicable to this application. Section 1.1 identifies the following land use
patterns: settlement areas, rural areas in municipalities, rural lands in municipalities,
and territory without municipal organization.
The PPS recognizes `rural areas' as a "system of lands that may include rural
settlement areas, rural lands, prime agricultural areas, natural heritage features and
areas, and other resource areas" (PPS 1.1.4). `Rural lands' means lands which are
located outside settlement areas and which are outside prime agricultural areas. Based
on these definitions, the Provincial Policy Statement constitutes the subject property as
`rural lands' within a `rural area' and therefore Provincial Policies 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 have
been analyzed.
The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe is a framework, pursuant to the
Places to Grow Act, for implementing Ontario's vision for building stronger, prosperous
communities by better managing growth in the GGH to 2031. It demonstrates leadership
for improving the ways in which our cities, suburbs, towns and villages will grow over
the long-term.
Kate Marrs and Jamie Anderson's letter dated January 10, 2015 has described the
proposed use as a unique and historic rural event space and states, "the property is still
in keeping with the character of our rural history, while providing guests with an
enhanced resort community experience."

DS2015-096, Adrianna Spinosa, Planner, re:...
Per Provincial Policy 1.'1.5.2, permitted uses on rural lands located in municipalities are:
a) the management or use of resources;
b) resource-based recreational uses (including recreational dwellings);
c) limited residential development;
d) home occupations and home industries;
e) cemeteries; and
f) other rural land uses.
The Provincial Policy Statement does not define the uses mentioned above. However, it
is Staff's opinion that the proposed use does not fall under the classification of any uses
noted. In Staff's opinion, `other rural land uses' is interpreted to be a general term that
blankets any land use inappropriate for the other patterns within Section 1.1 and is
appropriate for the use of rural lands.
Considering the number of complaints from the public throughout the 2014 and 2015
seasons, Staff have expressed a concern regarding the compatibility of the proposed
use as it is adjacent to a residential area and requested that the applicant provide
justification of conformity with Policy 1.1.5.4 of the PPS:
"development that is compatible with the rural landscape and can be sustained
by rural service levels should be promoted."
In response, Kristine Loft's letter dated August 11, 2015 states: "the proposed use can
be considered a permitted use in the rural area (other rural land uses) based on a use
of existing structures that is the basis of the business (i.e. barn facility), outdoor nature
of the experience, a business that is focused around the rural landscape." The Planning
Justification Report{s} received have not adequately demonstrated how the proposed
special event facility is a rural land use and is compatible with the adjacent [existing]
residential use.
The Growth Plan "directs growth to built-up areas where the capacity exists to best
accommodate the expected population and employment growth, while providing strict
criteria for settlement area boundary expansions" (Places to Grow 1.1, Places to Grow
2.2.3(b)). The Plan provides direction on population and employment growth, identifying
policies on how growth will be accornhiodated. Specifically (Places to Grow 2.2.2.1(i)},
"directing development to settlement areas except where necessary for development
related to the management or use of resources, resource-based recreational activities,
and rural land uses that cannot be located in a settlement area". The applicant has not
demonstrated why the proposed land use cannot be located within the existing
Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area therefore, does not meet Policy 2.2.2.1(i).
The applicant explains the business is an event venue that provides guests with an
"enhanced resort community experience". On this basis, the services offered are similar
to those uses that are currently permitted in the Horseshoe Valley Village designation
within the Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area. The only element unique to the proposal
which is absent in the development at Horseshoe Valley Resort, is a barn structure.
Staff recognize that the rustic barn contributes to the attraction of scheduling an event at
Lazy Dayz Bed, Breakfast & Rustic Barn. However, unlike a banquet hall, the barn does
not sufficiently contain noise. The applicant does not clearly explain why a banquet
facility cannot be located within a settlement area should a barn be relocated or re -

constructed with a similar design from reclaimed materials. In Staff's opinion, the special
event facility shall be directed to the Horseshoe Valley Village designation.
Kristine Loft's letter dated May 27, 2015 references Provincial Policy 1.1.4.1 (a) and (g)
— Healthy integrated and viable rural areas should be supported by:
a. "building upon rural character, and leveraging rural amenities and assets"
Although the zoning by-law amendment proposes to add a new use to an existing
structure, the proposed use is not a rural use and therefore it does not positively
contribute to the rural character.
g. "promoting opportunities for sustainable and diversified tourism, including
leveraging historical, cultural, and natural assets"
In addition, if recreational, tourism, and other economic opportunities should be
promoted" on rural lands (PPS 1.1.5.3).
Aside from attending a scheduled event, the applicant has not demonstrated how the
use is diversified tourism that attracts travelers. The events are private functions and the
barn is not open to the public, therefore it isnot a tourist attraction. In addition, the
Township's Heritage committee has neither designated the barn as a historic building of
interest, nor designated the property as a historical site. On this basis, PPS Policy
1.1.4.1(g) shall not apply to the proposed use within the subject barn.
Although the applicants have not quantified the economic opportunities in a formal
submission (Economic Impact Analysis Report, prepared by a qualified professional),
Staff do recognize there are economic benefits generated from the use which are not
quantified in the report.
In conclusion, the Provincial Policy Statement and The Growth Plan for the Greater
Golden Horseshoe promote intensification, redevelopment, and mix of land uses in
settlement areas. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed land use is not permitted on
rural lands, shall be directed to the existing `Horseshoe Valley — Resort Facility' area,
and is not compatible with the adjacent land use.
County of Simcoe official Plan, consolidated 2007
The subject lands are designated `Greenland' in the county's official Plan and therefore
subject to the General and Greenland policies of the Plan. Policy 3.7.6 identifies uses
permitted conditionally within the Greenland designation, with acceptable results from
an EIS [Environmental Impact Study] and includes `country recreational facilities'. Staff
note that the County does not require an EIS to be completed for the application as the
rezoning will only apply to the developed area and no further development is being
requested .
The Plan defines `country recreational facilities' as "recreational uses where the prime
reason for location in rural areas is to take advantage of natural physical features,
including the availability of large lots or land areas. They include, but are not limited to,
golf courses, campgrounds, lodges and resorts, conference centres, skiing facilities,
and special event facilities." Based on this definition, the proposed new use is permitted.

General Development Policy 3.3.17 requires the submission of a Traffic Impact Study
(TIS) to the satisfaction of the County's Transportation and Engineering Department. As
such, a Traffic Brief was prepared by C.C. Tatham and Associates, dated August 11,
2015 and the County has determined that improvements will not be required on County
Road 22 due to the rezoning.
Based on the noise complaints received by the public, noise has been adversely
affecting the adjacent residential use. General Development Policy 3.3.1 S of the
County's official Plan states:
"where a land use change is proposed that is likely to adversely affect existing
uses or be adversely affected by existing uses, a feasibility study that assesses
the impacts of odour, noise, vibration, particulates, or other emissions may be
required in accordance with provincial government guidelines. Some uses (e.g.
residential) may be sensitive to the ...noise ... associated with facilities... The
feasibility study shall be prepared to the satisfaction of the local municipal
Council and other appropriate agencies and shall include recommendations on
how impacts can be mitigated. The approval of the development proposals shall
be based upon the achievement of adequate separation distances between land
uses and other mitigation recommendations"
At this time, Staff have not required the applicant to complete a noise study. The
applicants have requested that any additional studies or costs be conducted at the Site
Plan Approval stage, once the rezoning is in place. Although this order of procedure will
give the applicant security when incurring the additional costs, it does not provide staff
with adequate information to determine: (1) whether noise levels are compatible with the
adjacent neighbourhood; and (2) if there's an opportunity to put additional measures in
place to mitigate the noise.
The County has requested that if the proposal is granted that a Holding Provision be
placed on the property and be subject to Site Plan Control. The county is requesting an
opportunity to review and comment on the site plan application when submitted and that
the applicant complete the following prior to site plan approval:
1. Submit a Site Plan Review form and payment to the county;
2. Apply for an Entrance Permit from the county and widen the existing entrance to
a width of 6.0 metres;
3. Submit a Site Plan to the County's Transportation and Engineering Department
for approval to ensure the county Road Setback By-law is met;
4. The county requires a road widening of approximately 3.6 metres; and
5. No parking along County Road 22 [Horseshoe Valley Road] is permitted.
Complete comments are appended as Schedule 4 to this report.
Township of oro-Medonte Official Pian, 2007
The Township's official Plan designates the subject property as Rural in entirety
however, it is immediately adjacent to the Horseshoe Valley Settlement Area boundary
and the north and west sides of the lands abut existing single detached residential uses.

Per Section A2.5.1, it is the goal of the Official Pian to "protect, maintain and enhance
the natural, agricultural and open space character of the rural area". Furthermore, an
objective of the Rural designation is to "prevent the intrusion of land uses which are
incompatible with the rural character and/or resource activities of the area" (Section
C2.1). As previously mentioned, the applicant has not adequately demonstrated
compatibility of the proposed use for the subject property.
While Staff note that a goal of the Plan is to create jobs and to provide opportunities for
economic development (Section A2.7.1), the applicant has not demonstrated how the
proposed use would promote economic development. without such a demonstration, it
is Staff's opinion that any economic development that may be generated is also
achievable if the use was directed to the settlement area.
Permitted uses within the Rural designation include: agriculture, single detached
dwellings, bed and breakfast establishments, home occupations, home industries ...
farm related tourism establishment (subject to Section C1.3.8), commercial uses on
farm properties (subject to Section C1.3.9), small-scale corporate meeting facilities or
corporate retreats, and existing tourist commercial uses such as private parks, trailer or
recreational vehicle parks, mobile home parks, rental cabin establishments, and private
campgrounds and accessory recreational and commercial facilities. The Planning
Justification Report submitted by Kristine Loft, dated August 11, 2015, does not identify
which use the proposed special events meets.
The Rural policies within the Plan provide requirements for new institutional uses,
commercial uses, corporate meeting facilities, and new tourist commercial uses
(Sections C2.3.3(g) and C2.3.4(f)} and council shall be satisfied that the proposed use
can be "appropriately buffered from adjacent residential uses." Although the applicants
have provided some operational changes, the adjacent residential area has still raised
concern with noise levels.
Schedule D of the Township's Official Plan identifies a `Horseshoe Valley — Resort
Facility' designation south-west from the subject property, (Schedule 3 of this report).
Section C1 4.3.5 of the Plan includes policies relating to this designation and has
identified that a small-scale training conference centre may be permitted on lands
located at the southwest corner of the 4th Line and Horseshoe Valley Road. In Staffs
opinion, lands have already been designated appropriate for the proposed use and
given the location, there has not been a demonstrated need for the expansion of this
designation — nor is the designation expansion the subject of this application.
Township's Zoning By-law 97-95
The subject property is zoned Agricultural/Rural (A/RU) Zone in the Township's Zoning
By-law 97-95, as amended. Due to the size of the lot (8.8 acres), uses currently
permitted on the property are generally low impact and include: agricultural uses, bed
and breakfast establishments, hobby farms, home occupations, market gardens,
portable asphalt plants, private home daycare, residential care homes, and single
detached dwellings.

The applicant wishes to further amend the Zoning by adding `indoor and outdoor special
events such as banquets, weddings, receptions, or similar functions" as a permitted
use. On August 18, 2015, Kristine Loft provided addendum information to the
submission including a draft by-law. In addition to the `special event' use addition, the
applicant has proposed the following restrictions:
■ Events to be held between April 15 — October 31 annually
• weekend Hours of operation Friday and Saturday — ending at midnight
• Weekday Hours of operation -- Sunday thru Thursday -- ending at 11:00 p.m.
• Exception to -noise requirements for Hours of operation
The proposed draft by-law.schedule limits the development and protects the use from
the neighbouring lands, as identified in green on Schedule 2.
Staff is of the opinion that the proposed use is a version of a banquet hall, "premises
used for the purpose of catering to banquets, weddings, receptions or similar functions
for which food and beverages are prepared and served" (Section 6.0). Banquet halls are
permitted in a General Commercial (GC) Zone due to the volume. if traffic it generates
and impacts on the adjacent/surrounding property it has. Structures constructed for
banquet halls are also able to contain noise better than a rustic barn may.
Section 5.19 of the By-law identifies parking standards for residential and non-
residential uses. Based on the proposed uses, the following applies:

exception for special events can support 47 parking spaces.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the proposal is to permanently rezone 754 Horseshoe Valley Road vilest
to a site-specific Agricultural/Rural Exception (A/RU*#) Zone to permit special events.
Proceeding forward, the committee's options are:
Option #11: Refusal
Planning staff recommends that the Committee refuse the application on the basis that
the special events are not compatible with the adjacent existing residential area and the
proposed use shall be directed to a more suitable designation, such as the Horseshoe
Valley Village Designation.
Option #2: Approval
The Committee may approve the application, subject to a Holding Provision. The events
shall not take place until the Hold is removed and a Site Plan Agreement is registered
on title. Through the Site Plan Application process, Planning Staff recommend that a
peer-reviewed Noise Study be required, at the applicant's cost. Dependent upon the
findings of the study, and whether or not additional measures can be put in place to
mitigate the noise, the applicant shall be subject to an annual Noise By-law Exemption
from Council. Through the Noise By-law Exemption process, council shall consider
noise -monitoring reports completed during the previous season.
The Committee should bear in mind that if the zoning by-law amendment is approved,
and the noise study results in undesirable recommendations for the applicant, this may
result in a property that is zoned for a use that cannot operate. on this basis, approval
is unfavourable.
Option #3: Deferral
Should the Committee wish to further discuss the policies and topics within this report,
they may defer the application.

Dear Ms. Spinosa,
RE: Zoning By-law Amendment 201 B-ZBA-01
South Part Lot 1, Concession -.5, 754 Horseshoe Valley Road West (County Road 22)
Township of 0 ro-Medonte
Thank you for circulating the above noted application to the County of Simcoe for comment. It is County
planning staffs understanding that the applicant is proposing a site specific exception in the `Agricultural/Rural'
Zone to permit indoor and outdoor special events such as banquets, weddings, receptions, .or similar functions
on the subject lands along with the existing permitted uses of a residential dwelling and bed and breakfast
operation. It is also understood that the proposal will be subject to site plan approval. The subject: property
is 3.6 hectares (8.9 acres) in area with frontage onto County Road 22 (Horseshoe. Valley Road West). The
subject lands are adjacent to the settlement boundary of Horseshoe Valley.
The County provided preliminary comments on March 24, 2015 and attended a pre -consultation meeting on
April 21, 2015. The County has received.and reviewed the requested Traffic Impact Study Brief and Planning
Justification Report including a preliminary site plan.
Planning Comments
The subject lands are designated `Greenland' in the County Official Plan (consolidated 2007). The subject
lands are primarily designated `Rural' within the Local Official Plan and are therefore subject to the General
and Greenland policies of the approved County of Simcoe Official Plan.
Policy 1. 1.5 of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS 2014) and Policy 2.2.2.1(i) of the Growth Plan for the
Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH) are applicable to the development proposal. The applicant has provided
a Planning Justification Report prepared by Loft Planning Inc. which outlines that the proposed development
conforms and is consistent with Provincial policy. The Planning Justification Report was :completed on May
271 2015 with addendums on August 11 and 18, 2015. The applicant's consultant notes that the use could be
permitted under "other rural land uses" as per Section 1.1.5 of the PPS and that the proposal is compatible
with the rural landscape and sustained by rural services. Additionally, the Planning Justification Report

addresses Growth Pian Policy 2.2.2.10) which nates that development is to be directed to settlement. areas
except where necessary for development related to the management or use of resources, resource-based
recreational activities, and .rural land uses that cannot be located. in settlement area. The report notes that the
proposed use is primarily located. in a restored barn with minor site .alteration and. is an additional use of the
existing property that is located within a larger resort recreational area (Horseshoe Malley).. The County
recognizes that the proposed use is tied. to the restored barn and the rural landscape which would not be
located in a settlement area and that it is supportive of the neighbouring recreational resort area for lodging of
overnight guests..
Section 3.7.6 of the County Official Plan lists uses. that are permitted conditionally within: the Greenland
designation following the acceptable results of an Environmental Impact Study (EIS) Country recreational
facilities are identified as a permitted use subject to an acceptable EIS and are defined as "recreation.al uses
however the prime reason. for the location in rural areas is to take advantage of natural physical features,
including the availability of large lots or land area ... They include, but are not limited to, golf courses,
campgrounds, lodges and resorts, conference centres, skiing facilities, and special event facilities." It .appears
that the proposed use would be similar to a special event facility as permitted by Section 3.7.5. Section 3.7.7
states that `Where an EIS has indicated that a .development proposal would have a negative impact on the
natural features or associated ecological functions for which the lands were identified, the application will not
be supported or approved." The .applicant's consultant has confirmed that the propose zoning amendment
will be limited to that of the existing dwelling, bed and breakfast and barn facility as shown on the draft zoning
by-law. Therefore, the County would not require an EiS to be completed for the application.
A draft site plan and by-law have been circulated to the County for review as well. As noted above, the. County
is supportive of restricting the area of the proposed exception to the Agricultural/Rural. (AG/RU) zone and the
inclusion of restrictive parameters such as number of guest, limited duration, and seasonally limited. The
County would note that the general provisions for lot area is not needed in the site specific exception as this
area would apply to the entirety of the subject lands. It may be prudent to illustrate an alternative location for
the parking spaces located in the County road widening if the lands are developed in the future.
The County understands that there may be outstanding compatibility issues with the proposed use and
neighbouring residential properties to the west. While the applicant's consultant has appeared to address the

County Road 22 JHorseshoe Vallgy Road West
The County's. Transportation and Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed zoning by-law
amendment to permit indoor and outdoor special events. The Transportation and Engineering Department
has reviewed the Traffic Brief dated August 11, 2015 prepared by C.C. Tatham and Associates in support of
the rezoning request. The peak operation of the site will typically be on weekends between May and October
with most events having approximately 100 to 15o. guests resulting in approximately 40 vehicles arriving to
the site. Sight distances at the existing entrance to- the property are acceptable and meet the County
requirements. The existing entrance has a width of approximately 3.5 metres and the applicant is proposing
to increase the entrance width to 5.0 metres which would bring the entrance into compliance with the County
Entrance By-law. The proposed rezoning and resulting new vehicle trips are not expected to have any impact
on the operation of County Road 22. Road inprovements due to the rezoning will not be required.

The Transportation & Engineering Department does not oppose the zoning amendment but would like the
opportunity to review and comment on the site plan control application when submitted. The County request
that the applicant complete the following prior to site plan approval.
1) Complete a Site Plan Review form and return it to the County with payment.
2) The existing entrance be required to be widened to a width of 6.0 metres and that the applicant
apply for an Entrance Permit from the County of Simcoe priorto any entrance improvements taking
place in accordance with the requirements of County Entrance By-law 5544;
3) Submit a Traffic. Impact Study., to the satisfaction of the County, which assesses the effects that
this development's traffic will have on the transportation network in the community.;
4) Submit a Site Plan to the County's Transportation and Engineering Department for approval to
ensure that the development meets the requirements of the County.'s Road Setback By-law 5504.
The Road Setback By-law requires all above and below ground buildings and structures to be
located a minimum of 15.0 metres from the limit of the County Road.
5) The existing right-of-way on County Road 22 adjacent to the subject property is approximately
30.0 metres wide. In accordance with Schedule 5.5 of the S.imepe County Official Plan, the
required basic right-of-way width for County Road 22 is 35.0 metres. County staff has reviewed
this requirement and feel that:the full .right-of-way width is necessary for future road maintenance,
road improvements and stormwater flow from County Road 22. In order to meet this right-of-way
requirement, the County will require a road widening of approximately 3.0 metres.
5} No parking along County Road 22 will be permitted.
All costs associated with the land transfer, including costs relating to surveying, legal fees, and
disbursements, agreements, HST, etc. shall be fully borne by the applicant. The applicant shall
employ a Solicitor, entitled to practice lava in Canada, being a member of the Lava Society of U pper
Canada to facilitate the transfer of the real property and in effect represent both parties in the
subject transaction, at no cost to the Corporation of the County of Simcoe. The Solicitor shall carry
transfer insurance that will indemnify the transfer. The applicant must contact the County for
detailed transfer specifications.
The County of Simcoe is requesting the road widening pursuant to section 41(8)&(9) of the
Planning Act and such land will form part of the highway to the extent of the designated widening
in accordance with section 31(5) of the Municipal Act, 2001. The widening of County Road 22 is
required pursuant to the County's standards for the construction and is consistent with proper
safety standards.
Summa
Therefore, County of Simcoe .Planning staff would not object to the proposed zoning by-law amendment to
permit indoor and outdoor special events on the subject lands. However, the County is supportive of the
Township's efforts to ensure land use compatibility between the proposed use and the neighbouring residential
properties.

The property is 10 acres and in my opinion, the only impact from cutting down trees would focus on the end
result creating an eye sore and loss of privacy. However, I'm not against any study that stops this zoning from
going through. I'd also like to inquire as to why noise bylaws don't apply under any zoning conditions. Surely
there must be an avenue to follow that controls the decibel level.
The owners focused on growth and the economic benefits of their business; this event barn is going to
expand.... creating increased parking on that property will become a necessity; but I'm still not convinced that
there would be an impact that concludes against the rezoning from an environmental perspective.

Good day, Andria,
Thank you for your time and for providing some direction on this matter.
Regarding the impact study, it should focus on all aspects of concern. Noise, and how it affects
nearby properties in the community being the most obvious issue. Traffic congestion is
important, as well, especially considering the proposal to widen the road for truck lanes;
ultimately bringing more traffic to an awkward intersection.
What is the procedure for moving forward with impact studies? What is the cost? Is there
anything else I should know; perhaps a website that would provide relevant information you
could recommend?

Subject: RE: Lazy Dayz (update)
Hi Adrianna,
Unfortunately I am not able to come up with recommendations that would be acceptable to the residents that
would probably meet the needs of the owners in establishing a viable business. We understand that council
wants to encourage economic development but there is a real issue around noise. We trust that the county
will be dealing with the traffic, parking and environmental issues , so our issue and focus is with noise.
The residents are concerned that preventing noise beyond certain hours is too difficult to enforce and has not
been enforced with the temporary permit and they are exhausted by the frequency of the parties . The
restrictions that would be acceptable to residents would be one event/ month with a calendar to
communicate the timing and no microphone use at all as the sound travels completely, no music after 11;00
pm and property vacated except by overnight guests by midnight. As well as restrictions on numbers of guests
to contain noise, maintaining trees and no expansion to allow more guests to attend or to have greater
number able to stay over.
Per the signed letter, we are requesting that a noise study be done and paid for by Lazy Dayz as none of the
residents are noise experts and we are willing to discuss other actions if the expert has some suggestions that
would meet our needs and at the same time give Lazy Dayz a chance to have a better business. For example
Sound proofing the barn or building an earth berm with fence as a sound barrier as apparently these could be
methods of reducing noise.
I am happy to engage in further dialogue with the appointed noise reduction expert to reduce the acceptable
restrictions or if you, council or Lazy Dayz has other suggestions.
Sincerely,
Jane Ravenshaw

Hi Andria and Adrianna,
Further the Brandon House's request for a noise impact study, the people impacted by this rezoning have
hired an independent planner, Ron Armstrong to review the current requests for impact studies and help us
communicate our request for a noise impact study. I understand that this letter should be directed to
Adrianna and I will drop off a physical letter at the township office tomorrow. Please see a copy as enclosed.
Last night, the season began with a noisy party at Lazy Dayz that went to at least 12:45 am when I fell asleep.
The temporary rezoning is up in June and the neighbours would like the noise issue resolved for the summer
months so we can enjoy our back yards.
Please find enclosed the formal request for a noise impact study to accompany the environmental, traffic and
planning impact studies already requested.
Sincerely yours,

Good Morning Mr. House,
Further to your inquiry to Councillor Coutanche it would be appreciated if you could confirm
the type of Impact Study that your questions relates to, for example is this specific to the noise
impacts, traffic, or other impacts?
During the public meeting process certainly a number of residents provided information on a
variety of impacts should the proposed zoning application be considered favourable by
Council. I would have to confirm but don't believe the public comments received to date
specifically requested an impact study to be required. Through the agency circulation and
review of the proposed application, the County of Simcoe has identified specific study
requirements (including environmental, traffic, and planning) and while other circulated

If you could provide some clarification regarding the type of impact study I can perhaps provide
some additional information regarding pursuing such a request.

Re- Zoning BV -Law Amendment 2015-ZBA-01
May 2 "u 2015
Mayor Hughes., Ms Spinoza and Members of Council, we are residents of Cathedral Pine Road and
Pine Trail immediately abutting orclose tothe Subject Property. Many ofushave previously
commented toCouncil expressing our concerns and opposition tothe rezoning ofLazy Qayz;many
of us attended the April 111 meeting and formally registered our opposition to the proposal. Because
we are not experts in re'zoning, we enlisted the help ofRon Armstrong ofArmstrong Harrison
Aasodatestorevievvthe&4arch25,2O15ReportfrornSirncoeCountyandadviseonthestatusof
our concerns. He has informed us that it requests a Traffic Impact Study, an Environmental Impact
Study and a Planning Justification Report. We support the position taken by Simcoe County in these
matters., and request that Council require the Applicants to prepare and submit the studies at their
expense, and that recommendations contained in the studies be made conditions of any approval
of the Lazy Days application and subject to the provisions of Section 41 of the Planning Act.
We note that Simcoe County"s concerns did not include the impact of the proposed use on abutting
residents with regard tonoise which was the additional major concern expressed byresidents. Om'
Medonte"s Noise By -Law seems the only possible remedy for the concerns (although acceptance of
their proposal would possiblyexempt them from this . Even ifthe by-law holds, bmay not
be adequate to deal with the noise that results from activities to be carried out on the site.
We want council tovote against the rezoning for all the reasons that have been filed by the
residents; however if council is considering this rezoning, we request that it include a requirement
fora Noise Impact Analysis to be carried out by an accredited professional noise expert that will
specifically address the impacts of noise levels at the boundaries of all abutting property owners.
The Terms of Reference for the study should include recommendations for attenuation of noise
levels in the event that they are predicted to exceed Provincial standards for activities abutting
residential properties. If the Analysis recommends attenuation such works shall be made
requirements of Council, to be included in the Site Plan Approval under Section 41 of the Planning

This is not just a problem at night ... neighbours cannot enjoy their backyards with all the noise

Neighbours have been living there for many years before an event barn popped up (they were fine

Hi Adrianna,
I wanted to get an update from you on the rezoning and when the case will go back to council for vote on the
rezoning.
The noise level has not been bad this year up until the last two week -ends especially this past week -end.
Again there was use of microphones and just a large crowd over the dinner hour which made it unpleasant to
be outside with guests.
The events take place so close to the property. There are a lot of people and just that number of people
talking to each other, clapping and cheering is very disruptive.
It seems really inappropriate to have a commercial event so close to people's back yards.
A typical neighbour does not have a 100 people over for Saturday afternoon every week.
Again, we ask for your support in the rezoning process.

however I followed through the prompts and received a voice mailbox. I have also left a voice
mail message this evening for Adrianna Spinosa in regards to this complaint.
My family and I, which includes my two young daughters, where hoping that the noise would
end come 11pm this evening so we could finally get some reprieve from the loud thump -
thump -thump and hooting and hollering from the festivities going on at the Lazy Dayz. We are
not sure of how much more this we can handle as it has become very disruptive to the and
enjoyment of our property during the day and the ability of my daughters to sleep in the
evenings. I do not find it acceptable for an 8 and 10 year old to have to wait until past
midnight, if we are lucky, for the noise to settle down so they can finally get some rest. Their
bedrooms, as well as mine, back directly onto the Lazy Dayz property. This is now the 3rd time
in the past two weekends this has occurred this year. This is also the second weekend that Lazy
Dayz has booked events, so they are "batting 1000" thus far and they are booked solid for the
remainder of 2015 from what I hear. The noise was also an big issue for us as well last summer
and fall, and looking back now and seeing what appears to be a total lack of regard for the
peaceful enjoyment of by property by Lazy Dayz, I wish I submitted this complaint sooner to
draw attention to the serious of this matter. The noise is akin to placing a large night club in
the middle of a residential neighbourhood, it just doesn't make sense. I've never experienced
anything such as this and am completely dumbfounded on how this has been allowed to
continue thus far.
Please contact me should you have any questions and thank you for your prompt attention

Barb,
Once again I have to point out the noise around the Lazy Dayz B & B. This is simply inappropriate
noise and activity to destroy a quiet neighbourhood community which was has been here long before
the last two years activities. We recognize the barn was there first, however as an agricultural
property. When it was developed into a B & B it did not affect our lives.
Saturday June 13th:
The noise and speeches from the crowd is amplified with the microphone. Is this what we have to
anticipate all summer ? This was in the late afternoon / supper time.
A few weeks ago there was another Saturday night event with the music and it that went to the early
hours of the morning and there were vehicles left parked on the shoulder of Horseshoe Valley Road
until the next morning.
Can you advise me the status of the Lazy Dayz application ?
This is not about the people who are running this business, this is simply the wrong location for this
type of activity.
Thank you,
look forward to hearing from you.

To whom it may concern:
I am writing you on behalf of the Oro-Medonte Economic Development Roundtable with
regards to Lazy Dayz Bed, Breakfast, and Rustic Barn.
Roundtable members were provided an opportunity to tour Lazy Dayz on June 1, 2015
and were very impressed by the quality of its facilities and the professionalism of its
owners. Questions and concerns related to potential impacts to neighbouring properties
as a result of the events it hosts were thoughtfully answered. Efforts to mitigate issues
such as noise and parking have also clearly been considered and addressed.
As you are aware, support for the tourism sector and attracting Visitors to the Township
are major areas of focus in the Township's Economic Development Plan that was
endorsed by Township council. That plan is also incorporated into the municipality's
overall corporate strategic plan.
The success of tourism -based businesses in the surrounding area such as Horseshoe
Resort and Settler's Ghost Golf Club, as well as those in the Village of Craighurst, is
largely dependent on the spending of Visitors brought to the area by businesses such as
Lazy Dayz. Its proximity to those businesses and its location on the Horseshoe Valley
Road corridor make it ideally situated to provide benefits to the Township's economy.
We look forward to seeing and hearing more of the positive effects that Lazy Dayz has
to offer to Oro-Medonte.
Sincerely,
Paul Miller
Chair, Oro-Medonte Economic Development Roundtable

Subject: Lazy Dayz Event Barn
Dear Council,
We are the Foley family and we reside at 69 Cathedral Pine Rd. We are neighbours to Brandon and
Diane House and our family too has unfortunately been severely affected by the noise from the Lazy
Dayz event barn.
Last Saturday evening July 18th, 2015 the noise coming from the event barn was unbearable and
very disruptive for me and my young family. The yelling, the loud music, and the festivities kept my
two daughters up well after their bedtimes as the noise did not settle down till well after midnight. We
do not have air conditioning not do we wish too. Living amongst the trees and using natures natural
cooling abilities while being green was a big draw for us when moving from Orillia to Cathedral Pines
8 years ago. As such, our daughters bedrooms face our backyard and unfortunately that also means
they face the event barn about 150 feet away.
We are starting to see the negative impacts the disruptive noise and ongoings at the event barn is
having on our daughters ability to sleep and health, as well as our ability to sleep and our health. We
are almost always kept up till lam every time there is an event at Lazy Dayz. Our family is in
desperate need of a solution as this current situation is not feasible. We are desperate and turning to
you for your assistance in this matter.
Last night, Saturday July 25, was no different. We heard every speech, every whistle, every scream,
and every song and lyric word for word it is that loud. There is no buffer between the barn and our
home 150 feet away. I can see the event barn from my backyard it is that close. The noise is just
not acceptable for a residential neighbourhood period. It's as simple as that.
There is also an event going on there today, and again we are chased back indoors, but with the heat
outside and no ac and our windows open, it makes no difference. We feel we are hostages in our
own home. It is really a sad situation and our family is a screaming out for peaceful enjoyment of our
property to return.
have called the by-law hotline on several occasions however I never get a response. I have even
attempted on many occasions to contact the by-law office by email and received no reply or a generic
reply several weeks later. I have also contacted the planning department several times by email and
phone regarding Lazy Dayz and have received no response. As a resident of Oro-Medonte the lack

Good Afternoon (again!) Derek & Adriana
We respect the need to follow the process for our amendment request; Jamie and I have ensured all
the requests made by the Township / County and others have been met. This includes the
retentention of a planner and more recently, a traffic specialist, to ensure we satisfy the expectations
properly.
was a little surprised to read the email below where "events which have not been permitted since the
Temporary Use By-law expired" was noted.
During our meeting with the Township, County and Kristine Loft on April 21st 2015, it was
acknowledged that as we "continue to work within the process and move forward" scheduled events
may be held, although we are all aware the temporary permit has expired.
want to assure you, we remain committed to seeing this process through to completion. It has been
noted often that our ongoing level of co operation has been exceptional.
am sure it comes as no surprise to anyone, that some residents continue to complain. However, as
have noted in previous correspondence, many of those who were vocal at the public meeting, have
recently sold their properties, and are soon to no longer be neighbours. There will always be chronic
complainers.
We continue to follow all the operational measures we have described, and we also frequently drive
around and walk down our neighbouring streets, as the Mayor and others have done eg By -Law
Officers to gauge the level of "noise' .
We are continuing to work with our consulting team to finalize our submissions.
With our best regards
Kate Marrs & Jamie Anderson

Hi again Barb,
The drumming stopped some time after 3pm. The bylaw officer came through around 5, dinner time,
and left around 5:15. He parked down on Pine Lane; we were walking through the subdivision with
our dogs at the time.
It is unfortunate that nothing could be heard at Lazy Dayz at the time the officer chose. This seems to
be the way of things, so sad for us here in the subdivision. Hopefully the evening will be quieter this
weekend.

Hi Council members and Adrianna
It is 12:00 noon and I have left a message at Lazy Dayz as the drum practice that went on last night
through trying to have dinner outside until it rained (thank goodness) was really noisy, has started up
again. I am sitting inside with windows closed and air conditioner on and hear the thumping. I am
going to leave my residence shortly to stay with my sister tonight in Huntsville because I can tell it will
be another bad night.
This is not just Saturday night but has spread to Friday night and Saturday. This is really affecting the
lives of the residents. People need to leave their homes to escape the noise.
know you are working on putting provisions in to change the zoning to allow these events but please
take into consideration how noise is adversely affecting the lives of the residents throughout the
summer. You need to ensure adequate sound proofing/ restrict number of events. It does not make
sense to me for council to approve the set up a commercial outdoor event enterprise in the back
yards of a residential sub -division. These are not small family gatherings that can be compared to
what a normal resident would have at their home.

Good day,
The event held at Lazy Dayz this past weekend was one of the more disruptive this season. Though
the events this season still pale in comparison to what we experienced during the 2014 season, the
events this year still stand as a testament to the lack of ability of the owners of Lazy Dayz to control
the events at their establishment, where noise is concerned.
However, this is no longer just about noise disruption. This is also about our health. If you'd like
clarification, I am happy to provide details.
How many weekends does Lazy Dayz have to prove they are capable of running events that do not
disturb the surrounding area?
Please do something about the events at Lazy Dayz Event Barn.
Thank you,

Minutes before receiving Jane's email I too had just finished sending a message to Barb Coutanche, and
copying in Lazy Dayz. I sent the email through the Township website so I can't cut and paste it for you, but it
echoed Jane's concerns. I have copied in Barb on this as well as Mayor Hughes.
The conceit that Lady Dayz are being `good neighbours" ( as per their claim ) is moronic. Their imperative to
derive income from their property in no way supersedes our right to peaceful enjoyment of our priorities,
period.
Using the same flaccid logic as they do, I should be able to put up a ten -storey condo across the road from the
fire hall, as I could sure make money doing that.
But the rezoning would not be allowed. And neither should this, as the constant barrage of noise that is having
no positive impact, economically or otherwise, on life in HSV.
I have also contacted Lazy Days, as well as Oro bylaw officers, with no response.
We need to be present en masse for the vote in September, and council needs to put to good of the whole ahead
of the benefits to a very few, at the expense of many. To do otherwise would be an abrogation of duty.

This Saturday's event was really noisy. I went to bed at 10:00 pm I could not sleep even with all the windows

We could not eat dinner outside even though I tried putting our own music on to drown out the applause,
announcements etc. but we had to retreat inside.
The music did turn off at 11:00 pm.
Can you let us know what recourse we have.
I am lucky enough to be away several weekends this summer but my neighbours get no reprieve. It must be

Subject: Re: Layz Dayz... Continuing unacceptable Issues that need a Resolution
It;s hard to know what we need to do to get our Ward Councillor and the rest of our representatives to take this
seriously. Direct communication does not seem to be working. So far we are seeing nothing but an inordinate
amount of skepticism from councillor Coutanche as to the validity of our claims, and no real commitment
whatsoever from anyone to engaging properly in the process of addessing them.
The notion that a five miniute drive-through by a bylaw officer is sufficient due diligence is really negligent, but
that is the naure of the response we are getting.
Not sure what the answer is here, but clearly Council does not think this is a matter of importance. Possibly a
funded campaign targeting both our disengaged Council and the bylaw offenders is needed.

Dear Neighbours
Yesterday's (16/08) event at Layz Dayz was intrusive and distressing. Unacceptable noise levels caused our
barbecue function with friends to be moved inside. The hooting and hollering of patrons and the PA announcer's
comments just plain made us mad. I will repeat that, damn mad.
There is no justification for anyone to break the law. Noise is noise at any time of the day, not just after a
certain hour of the evening. There is no magic around the 11 pm marker when all good neighbours should tone
things down. The bylaw that refers to noise refers to any time of the day or night.
The owners of Layz Dayz events must be held accountable and responsible for the activities they sponsor. The
Oro Medonte Council has a duty to uphold the bylaws it has passed. At this point neither party has taken
sufficient steps to resolve this ongoing issue.
Our questions to the Council are straight forward. In light of all you have heard to date, what resolution will you
make to preserve the integrity of the law and the duty of care you have to those citizens who continue to be
bombarded by unwanted and unsolicited noise? Secondly, how will the Council deal with the previous
extension granted to the proprietors of Layz Dayz given that it is no longer in effect? These concerns will not go
away - they must be dealt with according to law by using a common sense approach to resolve this community
conflict.

Very discouraging to hear, Barb.
Even if the councillors never hear any noise, it is unacceptable to allow a Commercial Business
(Event Barn) to back onto a residential area. What about the potential for future conflict? There
are more events being held at this establishment and they aren't getting quieter. We are currently
in our second summer of conflict with the temporary permit. A lot of people are complaining and
it is not because the weddings at Lazy Dayz are quiet, festive events.
Barb, perhaps it is time someone simply called Lazy Dayz and ask the owners themselves about
the nature of the noise. I wonder what Kate would say when asked how long the drumming went
on for this past Saturday? All you have is the word of a Bylaw officer who showed up after the

Yes, there was another event at Lazy Dayz this past Sunday evening, Barb. That's 3 of the last 4
Sundays in addition to every Saturday. How do I know this? It is because of the noise!
Alas, we give up, Barb. We have no confidence that the current council will vote against the
rezoning and it is a very stressful and frustrating feeling. I guess we will move from our "forever
home" so Lazy Dayz can have theirs.
On another related note: one resident of Cathedral Pines was told by township staff that residents
will not have an opportunity to speak at the council meeting when the vote is to take place,
which is discouraging. Would you confirm this please?
Hope you are enjoying your weekends, Barb. We're not.

The drumming stopped some time after 3pm. The bylaw officer came through around 5, dinner

It is unfortunate that nothing could be heard at Lazy Dayz at the time the officer chose. This

Thanks for the offer, Barb. I know it's always been available and thank you for your continued
support in trying to gain an understanding of our side of the issue. I do agree with others,
however, in that there are too many Council members not taking this issue seriously enough.
Lazy Dayz is breaking bylaws, and I'd like to request how long their temporary permit was
PxtPnriPri fnr
checked my email folder this morning and discovered that our first complaint about Lazy Dayz
(to your husband) was on July 13, 2014. This issue has caused a lot of stress and affected the
daily lives of many families. It has now been going on for over a year. It is just incomprehensible
that no Councillors have ever experienced the noise at any of the events.
On another note:
I have a silly favour to ask, and it only shows how frustrated I am that I would ask at all. I'm
hoping it will lead to more awareness and discussion amongst you and other council

These are WEDDINGS!!, Barb ... festive events that are at times, very loud. They are not typical
backyard parties with a handful of guests. You don't have to experience the noise to
understand what we're going through:
[If you take notice of the outdoor setup, I think you will agree that the use of amplification
would create a problem to neighbours in Cathedral Pines. All the speakers would be pointed
out toward the guests in the chairs, and therefore to our backyards. Amplified music /
announcements from DJ's and live performers chase us from our backyards....(the drumming
last weekend wasn't just seriously disruptive, but ignorant, and a testament to the poor
judgement the owners of Lazy Dayz possess in booking appropriate events). Anyways, I
digress..... Imagine how close the guests are to our backyards when they are hooting and
hollering the moment Mr and Mrs "So and So" are announced as a couple, as well as
throughout other times at any event. I've stated that the use of amplification is a big part of

amplification in a residential area? The by-laws are straight forward enough regarding this
issue. If it wasn't an issue, people wouldn't be complaining.
Also, take note of the dinner setup in the other pictures: the spaces between the boards prove
there is no 'sound proofing'. So, amplified speeches and DJ announcements /music are heard
and create an issue for us. I believe Kate referred to soundproofing the lower part of the
barn at the township meeting. What goes on down there? I sincerely don't know (there are no
pictures of that part of the barn on the website). There are more issues (especially with future
growth) that come to light in these pictures and from the information gleaned from the
website; and I leave you to it.]

Dear Barbara
A number of us met at Jane Ravenshaw's place this evening to support each other and think about further
actions we might consider in our attempts to persuade the Oro Medonte Council to not grant the Layzy Dayz
rezoning application. Firstly, it was very clear to us all that your support and understanding of the issues is
unequivocal.
Our voices need to be heard at the next Council meeting where the vote on the matter will be held. Although
many representations and numerous emails have already been made, there are still some considerations that may
tip the balance in favour of those residents who wish to live in peace and quiet in an area reserved for such.
I had previously indicated that a phone call to PC Phillips, Barrie OPP resulted in an occurrence (19/08/15)
where she was actually on the property of Lazy Dayz. The Officer's report to me was that the owners were
nowhere to be found. That begs the question as to the quality of supervision, who actually is in charge when
events are taking place and whether the proprietors can exercise sufficient control to reduce unwanted and
unsolicited noise levels both before and after 11 pm.
This past weekend both Linda and I woke after midnight to loud beeping sounds coming from the Layzy Dayz
property. It sounded like a truck was picking up equipment, backing up with the reverse beep sounds
penetrating our closed windows. Just another irritation, but when compounded week after week, it becomes
more like a vexation.
We continue to ask for and solicit your support.

To Whom It May Concern,
Earlier this year, I wrote a letter on behalf of Lazy Dayz Bed and Breakfast, located on Horseshoe Valley Road in Oro
Medonte. At the time, I discussed the benefits of having Lazy Dayz Bed and Breakfast as a part of our community as it
has brought people into the area, exposing them to all of the amazing things this community has to offer: amazing bike
routes, hiking, skiing, golf, and a tranquil nature lovers' paradise. Where else can you find all of this in one spot?
This past summer has been anything but tranquil. The numerous events held by Lazy Dayz Bed and Breakfast have not
allowed for the hard working members of this community to have a space where they can relax and enjoy after a hard
day of work. Additionally, our homes are no longer a place where we are able to entertain on a Saturday evening in our
own backyard as every weekend, we are inundated with loud screams, lurid music, and the ever resonating sound of
bass in our homes and backyards. This is happening far too frequently. There are more parties and events than I had
anticipated. It seems as though they are not only every single weekend, but also through the week. I believe there was
an event on Wednesday afternoon? Do we ever get any peace and quiet?
It is my understanding that Lazy Dayz Bed and Breakfast is a "Bed and Breakfast". It is also my understanding that they
do not currently have an Event Permit, yet continue to run events that are excessively loud and disrupt the quality of life
that the residents of Cathedral Pines (and surrounding area) love. From what I understood earlier this year, was that the
owners wanted to be able to host a few weddings throughout the year, not pollute every weekend and some weekdays
with too much noise. It never stops.
Bed and Breakfast locations are typically quiet and used for sleeping, enjoying a quiet cup of coffee on the veranda the
next morning, and eating a wonderful, home -cooked breakfast. If they are granted this Event Permit, will they change
the name to Party Dayz Event Centre? I know this sounds absurd, but has anyone considered the long term plans of this
facility? How, when every weekend is booked for a major event, can you possibly run a Bed and Breakfast? The two
ideas do not coincide.
If this is the case, I wonder what will happen to our home, our own sanity, and our ability to rest and relax in our own
backyard after a stressful week of work? We are supposed to de -stress, wind down, and relax at home, however we are
not given that opportunity. When the weather is beautiful outside, we should be enjoying our own backyards; but we
cannot, as we are unable to listen to our own music and sit on our own porch because it is just too loud... too often.
Despite Lazy Dayz's declared efforts to reduce excessive noise that is disruptive to the community, I do not believe they
have addressed all the concerns raised by the residents. I would suggest that if they really cared about their surrounding
community they would definitely limit the number of events that are occurring, not look to increase them. There has
been little to no improvement in the sound control and the control of their guests in the last few months as promised.
Police are being called for fights, community members are upset with the level of noise, and no one is really able to rest
and relax in their own homes.
I sincerely appreciate that you have considered this letter as a revision to my previous statement. Unfortunately the
integrity of the neighborhood and those who live here are far too important than making some money on events that
don't allow the full time residents their much deserved peace.
Kind regards,
Michelle Turner

And here we are again, October, and into our 7th month straight month of weekend after weekend
disruption. It's beyond words the toll this event barn has taken on our family and the fabric of our
community. I am beside myself right now trying to understand how something such as this has been allowed to
continue on for so long.
The noise tonight from Lazy Dayz has been absolutely horrendous and in no way would anyone, with the
exception of the profiteers of such an enterprise, consider this acceptable in a residential neighbourhood.
I'm giving it another 45 minutes till 11 pm. Enough is enough.
