(Farshid Fathibitaraf) FILE(S): A275/14 Location: Proposal: 35 Riverside Boulevard Ward 5, Vicinity of Yonge Street and Highway 407 The owner is requesting permission to construct a two storey dwelling with the following variances: Variance 1 Maximum lot coverage 2 Maximum building height 3 Minimum front yard setback Previously Approved (A048/13) Proposed 24.96% (16.69% dwelling, 6.06% pool, 2.2% overhang/balcony) Required 20% 10.96 m 10.7 m 9.5 m 11.1 m 11.1 m 39.42 m (43.8 m 10%) Official Plan: Comments: The subject lands are designated Low Rise Residential by the City of Vaughan Official Plan 2010 (VOP 2010), which was approved, in part, by the Ontario Municipal Board on February 3, 2014. The proposal conforms to the policies of the Official Plan. In 2004, Vaughan Council directed the Planning Department to review lot coverage standards in R1V Old Village Residential Zones. Development Planning prepared a report comparing the lot coverage standards in Vaughan with other surrounding municipalities. The Planning Department and Committee of Adjustment have supported a maximum of 23% lot coverage for two-storey dwellings. Exceptions where greater lot coverage have been supported is if a covered, unenclosed porch is included in the total lot coverage calculation. The proposed maximum lot coverage is 24.96% (16.69% for the proposed dwelling, 6.06% for the pool, and 2.2% for the overhang/balcony). Therefore, the dwelling is within the maximum allowable lot coverage of 23%, and the additional lot coverage is associated with non-liveable space. Accordingly, the Planning Department has no objection to Variance #1. The Planning Department has no objection to Variance #2, which is consistent with other approvals in the R1V Zone, and consistent with a previous approval on the subject property.

Page 2 of 2 On March 21, 2013, the Committee of Adjustment approved Minor Variance Application A048/13, for the above noted subject lands, to permit a two-storey single detached dwelling with a minimum front yard setback of 11.10 m, whereas Bylaw 1-88 requires 39.42 m (existing 43.80 m minus 10%). At that time, the Development Planning Department supported the Variance request, which is identical to Variance #3 in the subject application (A275/14). The Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal is minor in nature, meets the intent of the Zoning By-law, and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Recommendation: The Planning Department supports Minor Variance Application A275/14. Condition(s): None.

Attwala, Pravina Subject: FW: 35 Riverside Boulevard- File No. A275/14 Attachments: Front Elevation.pdf From: Karen Fox [mailto:karen@rwainc.ca] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2014 10:32 AM To: Attwala, Pravina Subject: 35 Riverside Boulevard- File No. A275/14 Hi Pravina, Marie Kennedy contacted me this morning asking for a change to the front elevation for 35 Riverside Boulevard. She had missed the decorative projection on the front elevation that should have been included in the height variance. As the packages have already been circulated and we do not want to delay the hearing next week, I have brought the decorative projection down.41metres so it is in line with the cupola and does not require an increase in the height variance.
