There are also smaller ComprehensiveDevelopment (CD-C) single family lots adjacent to the south and some RD (Duplex Residential) lotsfurther to the south.
Access to the site is via Blakely Road which is identified as a collector road in the OCP. The lot faceswest. Please refer to Attachment A for the Neighbourhood Context Map.
Proposed Development
This application is made for the purpose of rezoning the property from Medium Lot Residential (R-1)to Small Lot Residential (R-2) to permit subdivision into two lots. The proposed lots would maintainthe existing lot orientation and front onto Blakely Road.
If approved, the two lots appear to meet the R-2 regulations for subdivision, including the minimumlot area of 350m2 and Jot width of urn. Each lot is proposed at 356m2with a width of 11.86m. Novariances are proposed. A copy of the proposed plan is available in Attachment D.
The buildable area for the proposed lots meets the requirements for setbacks and lot coverage.Under the R-2 regulations, each lot would be permitted one single family dwelling with a maximumgross floor area of 232m2 (2500 ft2) plus garage of up to 46m2 (495 ft2). The maximum permittedheight will be 23”z storeys. Secondary suites are not permitted in the R-2 Zone.
Front Setbacks
The front yard setback required in the R-2 Zone is 3.Om from a front lot line, provided that a 5.5msetback is provided for any portion of the building designed, constructed, or used as a garage orcarport. The majority of the neighbourhood has front setbacks of 7.5m, consistent with the R-1zone.
Council recently approved a rezoning application for the adjacent property at the corner of BlakelyRd and 119 Aye, subject to the registration of a restrictive covenant requiring the entire frontsetback to be increased to 5.5m. The proposed plans included in Attachment D show a buildingfootprint with a front yard setback of 5.5m. Requiring an increase, in the front setback requirementto 5.5m for the entire building at this property would not impact the buildable floor area of thehouse and would be consistent Council’s previous direction for setbacks on this street.
