The Corporation of the
Town of Milton
Committee of Adjustment and Consent

-
Council Chambers - In Person

The Town of Milton is resuming the Committee of Adjustment and Consent (COA) meetings in person as of January 26, 2023.  Applicants and interested parties can participate in person at Town Hall, Council Chambers, 150 Mary Street. 


The applicant has requested permission to place two heat pump units in the front yard to optimize their efficiency, and because the Subject Property’s rear and side yards are already occupied by parking, a deck, servicing infrastructure, and basement windows.

* Details and Planning Report will be provided prior to the CoA Hearing as a revised agenda.

The applicant is proposing to establish an Additional Residential Unit (ARU) in the basement of the existing single-detached dwelling. The ARU will include a below-grade entrance located in the interior side yard and to access the unit. 

To facilitate the creation of an Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU), the application requests a minor variance to permit an existing chimney to encroach 0.3 metres into the pathway leading to the ADU entrance, as the Zoning By-law requires this access to remain unobstructed. 

The subject application is to obtain relief from the maximum floor area permitted for a detached accessory structure for waste storage as well as allow for outdoor storage to be permitted as an accessory use in the existing zone from the Town’s Zoning By-law (016-2014), as amended, in order to facilitate the proposed industrial warehouse/distribution building on the property.  

The purpose of this application is to facilitate the construction of a new accessory structure in the western side yard, and a gazebo in the rear yard, which would cumulatively exceed the maximum permitted gross floor area for accessory buildings and structures.

The applicant is proposing to establish an Additional Residential Unit (ARU) in the basement of the existing single-detached dwelling. The ARU will utilize an existing above-grade side entrance in the interior side yard to access the unit and as part establishing this entrance a fire-rated corridor is required in the garage as per the standards of the Ontario Building Code (OBC)

The purpose of the application is to facilitate the construction of a new detached garage, replacing the existing garage and maintaining the same height and gross floor area.

The proposed minor variances would facilitate the development of the Subject Property with a two-storey motor vehicle dealership.

Note that this application is tied to an ongoing Site Plan Application (File no. SP-01-25) and the Site Planner has confirmed that the application has progressed to a stage where it would be appropriate to review the required variances.

The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing dwelling and detached garage for the purposes of a new residential rebuild. As part of this proposed development, the applicant is requesting relief from the Town’s Zoning By-law to allow for an increase in the maximum lot coverage. Another component of this proposed development includes relocating the driveway.
