Property Address: 4725 Noble Lane Purpose & Effect of the Application: To request permission under Section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge the legal non-conforming dwelling located within 30m of the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The existing 1-storey seasonal dwelling with attached deck covers a ground area of 176sqm. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing dwelling and build a new 2-storey dwelling with walkout basement, partially within the existing footprint. The proposed dwelling (153.9sqm) with attached garage (62.2sqm) and deck (33.3sqm) would have a ground area of 250sqm and a gross floor area of 331sqm. The proposed structure would improve upon the highwater mark setback of the existing (14.1m vs. 10.6m). Dwelling height would increase from 4m to 10.7m. The proposed dwelling would have a 9m rear yard setback whereas the zoning by-law requires a minimum 10m. Finally, the proposal would facilitate the installation of a new septic system, setback a minimum 15m from the highwater mark. b)
PL-ZNA-2024-0083 (Dickinson) - Bedford District
85 150
Property Address: 158 Coyote Lane Purpose & Effect of the Application: The Owner proposes to construct a single detached dwelling on the property. The dwelling would be set back 10 metres from the top of bank. A minor variance is being requested to allow the dwelling to be set back less than 15 metres from the top of bank as required by the Zoning By-law. c)
PL-ZNA-2024-0087 (Adrain) - Bedford District
151 177
Property Address: 11 Doc’s Point Lane Purpose & Effect of the Application: The application seeks relief from Zoning By-law 2003-75 for the purpose of permitting a detached garage on the subject property. The applicant is proposing to build a 90.5sqm detached garage. The garage would be setback 8m from the front lot line, whereas the zoning by-law requires 20m. Further, the proposed garage would have a lot coverage value of 6%, whereas the zoning by-law stipulates a maximum lot coverage value of 5% for a detached accessory structures. d)
PL-ZNA-2024-0089 (Preston & Clayton) - Loughborough District
178 205
Property Address: 4652 North Shore Road
Page 2 of 224
Purpose & Effect of the Application: The owners intend to demolish all the existing buildings on the property, and to build a two-storey house, a sleeping cabin and a cabana. The house would be setback 25.4m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The sleeping cabin would be 11.4m from the lake and 6m from the top of bank. The cabana would be 12.6m from the lake and 6m from the top of bank. The sleeping cabin and cabana would be in the footprint of the old cottage. Minor variances are being requested (1) to allow the three buildings to be setback less than 30m from the highwater mark of the lake, and (2) to allow the sleeping cabin and cabana to be less than 15m from the top of bank. e)
PL-ZNA-2024-0095 (Donaldson) (Spellman) - Loughborough District
206 222
Property Address: Hinterland Lane (Johnston Point - Unit 2) Purpose & Effect of the Application: The owners propose to construct a house and sewage system on Unit 2 of the Johnston Point Vacant Land Condominium. The RLSW-104 zone requires the house to be setback a minimum of 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of Loughborough Lake. It was determined during the review process that a small bay comes into the property making it impossible to achieve this setback. The house would be 9.5m from the floodline in the small bay. The plot plan suggests that points of the house may also intrude into the setback by 0.1m to 0.8m. A minor variance is being requested to allow the house to be setback less than 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of the lake.

Kate Kaestner Secretary-Treasurer, Committee of Adjustment Township of South Frontenac PO Box 100 4432 George Street Sydenham, ON K0H 2T0 Dear Ms. Kaestner: Re:
PL-BDJ-2024-0040 – Asselstine Consent Application Notice of Objection
I am writing on behalf of the Hartington Community Association (HCA) concerning the abovenoted planning application and would request that the comments herein be placed before the Committee of Adjustment at the upcoming public hearing. The HCA understands that the applicant is proposing to create a new 20 acre lot from an existing 40 acre agricultural property. Please be advised that the HCA objects to the proposed consent application on the grounds of significant concerns for: (a) the quantity and quality of water in the hamlet of Hartington and surrounding area; (b) the preservation of agricultural lands; (c) the failure of the application to comply with the South Frontenac Township Official Plan and the provincial planning framework, as described below in more detail. Quantity and Quality of Water As the Township is aware, the hamlet of Hartington is in a highly sensitive groundwater area per the attached Western Cataraqui Region Groundwater Study by TROW Associates Inc. completed in April 2007, Volumes 1 and 2. Contamination from agricultural activity, sewage systems as well as commercial uses in the area are therefore a concern. Attached is correspondence from Frank Crossley of the then Ministry of the Environment dated February 9, 2010, which outlines such a contamination incident. As Mr. Crossley details in his correspondence, several residential wells located just south of Hartington and south of an agricultural use just to the south of Hartington were contaminated with e-coli. Mr. Crossley comments on page 7 as to the environmentally sensitive nature of the area, and it is the HCA’s understanding that the Township was urged to consider same when reviewing further development. A further incident of contamination is discussed in the attached recent report from SOS On-site Services to the Township of South Frontenac dated November 20, 2023, which sets out the ongoing monitoring of the former Hartington gas station site at the corner of Hwy 38 and Holleford Road, Canadian Environmental Law Association T 416 960-2284 • 1-844-755-1420 • F 416 960-9392 • 55 University Avenue, Suite 1500 Toronto, Ontario M5J 2H7 • cela.ca

Letter from CELA - 2
which abuts the subject proposed severance parcel. BTEX (hydrocarbon) contamination was identified in the shallow groundwater around this site and the test wells to the west of this site continue to be monitored on a semi-annual basis as indicated in the said report. It further appears the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) continues to review the situation. Information was also brought to the Township’s attention regarding the sensitive nature of the area and the risk to both quantity and quality of groundwater in the Hartington area by hydrogeologist Wilf Ruland in his attached May 10, 2016 report concerning the then proposed subdivision on Boyce Road in Hartington. Mr. Ruland identified concerns including nitrate-nitrite and e-coli contamination risks due to agricultural activity as well as existing septic systems and the potential for the change in flow direction of contaminated areas due to increases in draw from development. Following Mr. Ruland’s initial report information regarding contamination at the former Hartington gas station site was brought to his attention and he provided follow up correspondence dated July 28, 2016, which was forwarded to the Township of South Frontenac and is also attached hereto. This document also discusses the potential for flow direction changes and the inherent risks to the community from a sensitive groundwater area. The above and attached information all points to the need for any new lot creation or development in the Hartington area to be scrutinized to the utmost degree for water quality and quantity, including the above-referenced severance application, and not only for any proposed development, but also as to the impact said development could have on existing residents. Water testing that monitors existing resident wells within a 300m radius, as proposed in Mr. Ruland’s July 28, 2016 correspondence, for both quantity and quality changes should be mandatory in order to protect the health and safety of the residents of the surrounding area. In the above-noted consent application, the applicant requests the waiving of the requirement for the installation and testing of a well on the proposed severed parcel on the basis that no development is presently being proposed. The HCA strenuously objects to the proposed severance proceeding on this basis for the reasons stated above and given the applicable provincial planning policies (see below). While the applicant claims that no development is being contemplated on the severed parcel at this time, there is no assurance or guarantee that the new parcel will not be subsequently conveyed for development if the severance is allowed. Preservation of Agricultural Lands The HCA also objects to the proposed severance on the basis that the applicant acknowledges the proposed severed lot contains a barn and may continue to be used for farming for many years. As the retained lands are zoned Agricultural, there appears to be no compelling reason for the lands, which in totality are used for agricultural purposes, to be broken up at this time. Furthermore, as noted below, provincial planning policies highlight the importance of ensuring the continued production and viability of agricultural land, which should be protected for the purpose of food security. On this point, the HCA notes that Township of South Frontenac also passed the attached motion on October 5, 2016, requesting OMAFRA reclassify Rural lands west of
Page 36 of 224
Letter from CELA - 3
Hartington as prime agriculture. This signifies a concern for the area’s farmland that is inconsistent with permitting the subject parcel to be separated when its indicated intended use remains agricultural and is not for the purpose of residential development within the hamlet. It goes without saying that any residential development would require the increased scrutiny set out above regarding water quality and quantity concerns. The HCA further notes that the South Frontenac Township Official Plan (OP) emphasizes the protection of agricultural lands, and the Zoning By-law stipulates minimum distance separation requirements to prevent incompatible land uses, which help in reducing land fragmentation. In the HCA’s view, the proposed severance would lead to further fragmentation of these vital agricultural lands, which contradicts the goals set forth in the township’s planning documents. Given the current zoning and the applicant’s intention to continue agricultural activities on the lot, the severance appears unnecessary and premature. South Frontenac Township Official Plan The “Agricultural and Rural Goal” of the current OP “is to preserve the Township’s established rural character and agricultural industry” (Policy 4.3). This Goal is to be achieved through various objectives, including the maintenance of “agriculturally productive lands in economically viable units by preventing the fragmentation of such land” (Policy 4.3(a)(ii), emphasis added). Under the current OP, the subject property is designated as Rural and Agricultural. As per Policy 5.1, the Agricultural designation is applicable to high quality agricultural lands: The Agricultural designation means that the predominant use of land in the areas so designated shall be for agricultural purposes and compatible uses which enhance the Township’s agricultural industry. The Agricultural designation has been applied to those lands that are considered to be provincially significant, that have a high capability to produce food and are generally large blocks of Class 1, 2 and 3 soils as identified in the Canada Land Inventory (CLI) for agriculture. The Agricultural designation may also include areas which exhibit established agricultural activity. Policy 5.1.5 of the OP goes on to establish prescriptive policies for three types of consents involving farms: Agricultural Consents Consents in the Agricultural designation shall conform with this section and the General Consent Policies of Section 7 of this Plan. Within the Agricultural designation, the following three (3) types of consents are permitted: (a) farm consents; (b) farm and infill related residential consents; (c) farm related industrial and commercial consents;
Page 37 of 224
Letter from CELA - 4
The following consent policies shall apply. (a) Farm Consents Farm consents shall only be considered where the municipality is satisfied that: (i)
(ii)
both the retained and severed lot are large enough to support a farm operation. The minimum lot size shall be established in the implementing Zoning By-law; the proposed consent does not create or promote inappropriate agricultural land fragmentation; and (iii) the farm buildings either existing or proposed will be sufficiently separated from buildings on adjacent lots to comply with the Minimum Distance Separation formulae as amended from time to time
(b) Farm and Consents for Infilling Purposes Limited farm and infill residential consents may be permitted in the Agricultural designation. The property may be eligible for one (1) residential consent provided it relates to a farm operation of at least 35 hectares (86.5 acres) and complies with the Minimum Distance Separation I Criteria as amended from time to time. For the purpose of this Plan, a farm operation will include the total land holding (owned, leased or rented) of a farmer. However, only one parcel from within a farm operation will be eligible for a residential consent in accordance with the policies of this Plan. A residential consent may be for either a farm related or infill residential use in accordance with the policies of this Plan. Consents for lot adjustments which do not create new lots shall not make a lot ineligible for a residential consent so long as the intent of the Plan is maintained. New farm or non-farm residential consents shall be a minimum of 0.8 hectares (2 acres) with a minimum of 76 metres (250 feet) of public road frontage, except for waterfront lots which shall be a minimum of 1 hectare (2.5 acres) with a minimum of 91 metres (300 feet) of waterfrontage. (i)
Farm Related Residential Consents Consents for farm related residential use may be permitted for an existing residence considered to be surplus as a result of a farm consolidation where the consolidation results in a farm operation of at least 35 ha (86.5 acres) or where the lot is to be used for a retirement lot for a farmer. A farm retirement lot shall mean one lot from a farm operation for a full time farmer of retirement age who is retiring from active working life, was farming on or before January 1, 1994 and has owned and operated the farm operation for a substantial number of years.
(ii)
Infill Residential Consents
Page 38 of 224
Letter from CELA - 5
Consents for infill residential uses may be permitted in the Agricultural designation. The consent may be from any property existing as of the day of adoption of the Plan. In the Agricultural designation, infilling shall refer to situations where the lands under consideration front upon a public road, are between two existing non-farm residential lots (side lot lines form the boundaries of the area subject to infilling) separated by not more than approximately 100 metres (328 feet) and located on the same side of the road. (c) Farm Related Industrial and Commercial Consents Non-residential uses specifically referred to under Section 5.1.1 of this Plan may be permitted within the Agricultural designation. In granting consents related to such uses, regard shall be had for the following: (i)
a consent to a land severance may be considered by the Committee of Adjustment to allow the establishment of agricultural service and supply industries and other such uses as may be permitted provided such use does not jeopardize the viability of an adjacent farming operation and that the proposed use will comply with the Minimum Distance Separation Formulae I as amended from time to time and is compatible with adjacent land uses;
(ii)
where possible, a lot created for farm related industrial or commercial purposes shall be encouraged to be located within areas of poorer quality soils; and
(iii)
a lot created under the provisions of this Section shall be conditional on the approval of an amendment to the implementing Zoning By-law rezoning the lands within an appropriate zone classification.
Given the paucity of detail contained within the above-noted consent application, it appears to the HCA that none of the foregoing consent criteria have been satisfied. Moreover, there is a significant internal inconsistency within the application. For example, with respect to previous severances, the Application at Question 22 asks “Has the subject land ever been, or is currently, the subject of an application for approval of a plan of subdivision under section 51 of the Planning Act, for a consent under section 53 of the Planning Act, for a minor variance, for approval of a site plan, or for an amendment to an official plan, an amendment to the zoning by-law or a Minister’s zoning order?” The applicant answered “No” for all. However, at Question 23 the Application asks “Has land been previously severed from the subject property, since September 5, 2000? If yes, please provide date of transfer; name of transferee and uses of the land.” The applicant answered “Yes 2006 (car wash) 2010 (residential). The applicant goes on to say at Question 24 that they acquired the subject land as a result of a consent.

Letter from CELA - 6
The Provincial Planning Framework When deciding the consent application, the Committee must have regard to the matters of provincial interest listed in section 2 of the Planning Act, including the following: 2 The Minister, the council of a municipality, a local board, a planning board, and the Tribunal, in carrying out their responsibilities under this Act, shall have regard to, among other matters, matters of provincial interest such as… (b) the protection of the agricultural resources of the Province… (e) the supply, efficient use and conservation of energy and water… (h) the orderly development of safe and healthy communities… (o) the protection of public health and safety (emphasis added). In addition, section 3(5) of the Planning Act stipulates that the Committee’s decision “shall be consistent” with the policies set out in the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS): 3(5) A decision of the council of a municipality, a local board, a planning board, a minister of the Crown and a ministry, board, commission or agency of the government, including the Tribunal, in respect of the exercise of any authority that affects a planning matter, (a) subject to a regulation made under subsection (6.1), shall be consistent with the policy statements issued under subsection (1) that are in effect on the date of the decision The PPS 2020 is currently in effect and applies to the Committee’s forthcoming decision on the consent application. Among other things, PPS 2020 contains various environmental and waterrelated policies, such as: 1.1.1
Healthy, liveable and safe communities are sustained by…
c) avoiding development and land use patterns which may cause environmental or public health and safety concerns… 2.1.2 The diversity and connectivity of natural features in an area, and the long-term ecological function and biodiversity of natural heritage systems, should be maintained, restored or, where possible, improved, recognizing linkages between and among natural heritage features and areas, surface water features and ground water features. 2.2.1 Planning authorities shall protect, improve, or restore the quality and quantity of water by… d) identifying water resource systems consisting of ground water features, hydrologic functions, natural heritage features and areas, and surface water features including
Page 40 of 224
Letter from CELA - 7
shoreline areas, which are necessary for the ecological and hydrological integrity of the watershed; e) maintaining linkages and related functions among ground water features, hydrologic functions, natural heritage features and areas, and surface water features including shoreline areas; f) implementing necessary restrictions on development and site alteration to:
- protect all municipal drinking water supplies and designated vulnerable areas; and
- protect, improve or restore vulnerable surface and ground water, sensitive surface water features and sensitive ground water features, and their hydrologic functions; 2.2.2 Development and site alteration shall be restricted in or near sensitive surface water features and sensitive ground water features such that these features and their related hydrologic functions will be protected, improved or restored. Mitigative measures and/or alternative development approaches may be required in order to protect, improve or restore sensitive surface water features, sensitive ground water features, and their hydrologic functions (emphasis added). The PPS also contains several stringent policies aimed at preserving productive agricultural lands, areas, and systems, including the following provincial directions: 2.3.1 Prime agricultural areas shall be protected for long-term use for agriculture. Prime agricultural areas are areas where prime agricultural lands predominate. Specialty crop areas shall be given the highest priority for protection, followed by Canada Land Inventory Class 1, 2, and 3 lands, and any associated Class 4 through 7 lands within the prime agricultural area, in this order of priority. 2.3.2 Planning authorities shall designate prime agricultural areas and specialty crop areas in accordance with guidelines developed by the Province, as amended from time to time. Planning authorities are encouraged to use an agricultural system approach to maintain and enhance the geographic continuity of the agricultural land base and the functional and economic connections to the agri-food network… 2.3.3.3 New land uses in prime agricultural areas, including the creation of lots and new or expanding livestock facilities, shall comply with the minimum distance separation formulae. 2.3.4.1 Lot creation in prime agricultural areas is discouraged and may only be permitted for: a) agricultural uses, provided that the lots are of a size appropriate for the type of agricultural use(s) common in the area and are sufficiently large to maintain flexibility for future changes in the type or size of agricultural operations;
Page 41 of 224
Letter from CELA - 8
b) agriculture-related uses, provided that any new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the use and appropriate sewage and water services; c) a residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation, provided that:
- the new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the use and appropriate sewage and water services; and
- the planning authority ensures that new residential dwellings are prohibited on any remnant parcel of farmland created by the severance. The approach used to ensure that no new residential dwellings are permitted on the remnant parcel may be recommended by the Province, or based on municipal approaches which achieve the same objective; and d) infrastructure, where the facility or corridor cannot be accommodated through the use of easements or rights-of-way… 2.3.4.3 The creation of new residential lots in prime agricultural areas shall not be permitted, except in accordance with policy 2.3.4.1(c) (emphasis added). Conclusion For the foregoing reasons, HCA objects to the consent application for the subject property. In HCA’s view, the proposed severance is unjustified, does not consider known water quantity and quality concerns in the Hartington area, fails to have regard for matters of provincial interest, is inconsistent with the PPS 2020, does not conform with the Township OP, does not represent good planning, and is otherwise not in the public interest. If the Committee has any questions arising from the HCA’s comments or the attached materials, please feel free to contact the undersigned at your earliest convenience. Yours truly, CANADIAN ENVIRONMENTAL LAW ASSOCIATION

Box 100 4332 George Street, Sydenham, ON K0H 2T0 Dear Madam: RE: PL-BDJ-2024-0040 Asselstine Consent Application Notice of Objection We are responding to the above-mentioned consent application and wish to raise our concerns. 4332 George Street, Sydenham, ON K0H 2T0 The notice was vague as it does not state the intended use of the new lot. Should severance be granted, its intended use must be provided according to Sections 8 & 9 of the Consent Application. Apparently the applicant is requesting the requirements for a well and water testing be waived. Why?
2
Page 44 of 224
If the Township waives the requirement for a well, it sets a precedent that water quantity and quality does not have to be proven in order to sever or sell land; rules exist for a reason to protect, buyers, sellers and residents of South Frontenac Township. We reside near this area. Noting a recent visit to the adjacent car wash on the 18th of this month (May) there was unpleasant smell while using the water sprayer. It was unexpectedly off-putting and alarming. We must not disregard the historic and ongoing water issues in Hartington. The Township has a variety of reports that review the water issues in further detail. Please see the MOECC report dated 2/09/10 written by Frank Crosley which outlines the historic water issues in the area. The former gas station created BTEX contamination in the groundwater. See your reports from SOS dated 9/28/2015, 9/23/2016, 9/23/2017 & 11/20/2023. These reports speak to the continued flow, the direction, and state of monitoring for BTEX. According to that report, monitoring is still required. According to the application, the north-west point of a proposed new lot is right at the starting point of BTEX contamination. On the application the reason stated for waiving the well requirement is that that should someone build, the well required for severance may not be in the location where someone would necessarily build a home. On the surface, this seems logical, but it also reveals a hope to sever and sell the land, disregarding the rules. To waive the water and well requirements, knowing about these issues, is very concerning. Regards, Sandra and Dan Bell

Consent Application PL-BDJ-2024-0040, Asselstine, 4659 Holleford Road, Portland District
Summary This application is for the creation of a new lot. This report recommends approval of the application. The Committee of Adjustment is being asked to make a decision on this application, as it is a disputed consent per By-law 2020-27 because there are unresolved issues or concerns from the public regarding the overall development proposal for the property. Background The application is requesting consent to create a new lot within the settlement area of Hartington. The purpose of the application is to separate the property into two with the new lot line corresponding to the Hartington settlement area boundary. The severed lands are within the settlement area and the retained lands are outside the settlement area. The retained lands contain a solar panel which the owner wishes to have on a separate parcel from the lands within the settlement area. The owner states in the application that the severed lands are no longer required for their farming operation. There is no development currently proposed on the severed parcel. Accordingly, the owner is requesting that the condition required to drill a well be waived. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications Application Details The severed parcel is approximately 6.8ha in area with 85m of frontage on Holleford Road. The severed lands are farm fields and contain a barn. No development is currently proposed on the severed lands. The retained lot is located outside the settlement area and will be approximately 9.5ha in area with 250m of frontage on Road 38. The retained lands are farm fields and contain a solar panel. The agricultural use of the retained lands is proposed to continue. Designation and Zoning The severed lands are designated Settlement Area and zoned RU. The retained lands are designated Agricultural and zoned AG in Zoning By-law No. 2003-75. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-BDJ-2024-0040
Review This application: Conforms to section 51(24) of the Planning Act; Does not require a plan of subdivision for the proper and orderly development of the municipality (s. 53(1) Planning Act); Is consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement (s. 3(5) Planning Act); Conforms to the County of Frontenac Official Plan (s. 3.3); Conforms to the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan (s. 5.7.4 & 7.1); Complies with Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 (or will comply subject to a standard condition of rezoning or minor variance); and X Has no unresolved objections/concerns raised from agencies or the public. Property Description The subject property is an agricultural property comprised of fields located in the southeast quadrant of Hartington. The property is 14 hectares in area with 85m of frontage on Holleford Road and 240m of frontage on Road 38. To the north and west of the property are a mix of residential and commercial uses within the settlement area. To the east and south are other agricultural properties. Department and Agency Comments Public Services reviewed the application and noted that there are adequate sight lines for an entrance for the severed and retained parcels. There are no special drainage/ditching concerns and the overall road condition is adequate to serve increased development. Road widening will be required to be deeded to the Township if the surveyor determined that the road allowance is less than 20 metres (65.6 feet) wide adjacent to the property. The owner will be required to dedicate the lands to obtain 10 metres as measured from the centre of the roadway. Public Services has no objection to the approval of the application. Cataraqui Conservation advised they had no comments on the application. Public Comments A number of letters of concern have been received from members of the public residing in Hartington. The comments raised concerns about the availability of water in the area and concerns about the impact additional development would have on the availability of water. Concerns were also raised with the request to not have a well drilled. There were also concerns with what the property might be used for as the application did not identify a proposed use for the severed parcel. Concerns were also raised about site contamination www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

from the property at the corner of Road 38 and Holleford Road which was a former gas station. Wells are typically required to be drilled for new lot creations in order to meet the servicing policies of the Official Plan. The owner is requesting that this requirement is waived as they are not proposing to develop the property, and if they are required to drill a well now as a condition of consent, the well may not be in the location of where development on the property is to occur. Staff are recommending that a holding symbol be placed on the property that would require the demonstration of an adequate water supply prior to the property being developed. This recommendation is intended to address the concerns about the availability of water and the requirement for drilling a well. Regarding concerns about the site contamination at 5598 County Road 38, this is a brownfield site that had a former gas station that is now owned by the Township. Public Services confirmed that there is a water monitoring program of the site being carried out under the direction of the MECP. As the Township is actively monitoring the site, and staff are recommending that a holding symbol be placed on the severed lands to require demonstration of adequate water supply prior to development occurring on the property, staff are satisfied that this addresses concerns regarding site contamination of the adjacent property. Regarding the potential use of the property, no use was identified in the application. The property is currently zoned RU, staff are recommending the severed lands are rezoned by placing a holding symbol on the severed lands for demonstration of adequate water supply for the lot. The RU zone with a holding symbol will maintain flexibility in how the property is used once demonstration of water is addressed. Planning Analysis The Provincial Policy Statement 2020 and the County of Frontenac Official Plan (Section 3.3) direct the majority of development in the Township to Settlement Areas. The subject lands are designated Settlement Area and Agricultural in the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan. There has been two previous lot created (2006 and 2010) from the subject property since the adoption of the Township Official Plan in September of 2000. In accordance with Section 5.6.6 of the Official Plan, the subject application is eligible as an additional severance. The subject application is splitting the property along the Settlement Area boundary. The proposed severed lands contain the entire area of the property currently within the Settlement Area and the retained lands contain the entire area of the property currently designated Agricultural. The OP states that it is the municipality’s intention that new lot development in Settlement Areas will generally occur by plan of subdivision. However, a maximum of three (3) severances may be permitted from a lot of record existing on the day of adoption of this Plan by Council where it is demonstrated that a plan of subdivision is not necessary for the orderly development of the land and will not limit such development by plan of subdivision. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-BDJ-2024-0040
The subject application does not create a lot in the settlement area so much as simply dividing the lot into the Settlement Area portion and Agricultural lands portion. The application would not impact the ability of the severed land to be developed in the future. While no development is proposed for severed lands, the lot meets minimum area requirements for any residential or non-residential use permitted in the Settlement Area. Regarding the retained lands, agricultural consents are discussed in Section 5.1.5. The intent of the agricultural consent policies is to prevent fragmentation of agricultural land. The proposed consent does not result in the further division of any agricultural lands, only the separation of the agricultural lands from the settlement area lands. The severed and retained parcels have frontage on a public road. Section 7.1 of the Township Official Plan requires the ability of lots to be serviced by a private sewage disposal system and private well. Per the Building Services review, the severed parcel is large enough that servicing by a private sewage disposal system is not a concern. The applicant is requesting that the condition to drill a well not be required as condition of consent approval. As noted above, as no development is being proposed staff are instead recommending that rather than drill a well now that a holding symbol be placed on the property that requires adequate demonstration of water supply prior to the lot being developed. An existing livestock barn is located on the severed lands. However, as the lot is in the Settlement Area, minimum distance separation (MDS) is not applicable. Under the recommended UR-1 zoning existing agricultural use of the property is permitted to continue. The property is not subject to any designated natural heritage features. The proposed severance is not anticipated to have any adverse environmental impacts. With the recommended conditions the severed parcel complies with the land division policies, Settlement Areas and Agricultural land development policies of the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan and any new development will need to comply with Zoning By-law No. 2003-75. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Application was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 14 days before the applications were reviewed. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that application PL-BDJ-2024-0040 be approved for consent for a new lot from 4659 Holleford Road, Township of South Frontenac subject to the following conditions:

Sent by E-mail Mr. Noah Perron, Planner Township of South Frontenac P.O. Box 100 Sydenham, Ontario K0H 2T0 Dear Mr. Perron: Re:
Application for S. 45(2) Permission PL-ZNA-2024-0026 (Kubes) Pt Lot 7, Concession 9; 4725 Noble Lane Storrington District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Loughborough Lake
Cataraqui Conservation staff have reviewed the above-noted application for permission and provide the following comments for the Committee of Adjustment. Proposal The proposal involves the expansion of a single detached dwelling on the subject property, which is currently set back 10.6 m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The existing 176 sq. m. seasonal dwelling with an attached deck is proposed to be demolished and replaced with a 250 sq. m. dwelling with an attached garage and deck. Permission is requested to reduce the required setback from the highwater mark from 30 metres, as required by Section 5.8.2.a) of the South Frontenac Zoning By-law to 14.1 metres to permit the enlarged building. Relief is also requested to allow the dwelling to be located 9 metres from the rear yard and to allow the new septic system to be located 15 m from the highwater mark. Site Description The property is located on the south shore of the east basin of Loughborough Lake. The topography of the property can be described as having a low bank at the shoreline that levels out into a relatively flat area where the existing dwelling is located, then rising more steeply behind the dwelling toward Noble Lane to the south. The property is designated ‘Settlement Area’ in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Limited Service Residential -Waterfront’ (RLSW) in the implementing Zoning By-law. Discussion Cataraqui Conservation’s scope of review for this proposal includes the avoidance of natural hazards (e.g. flooding and erosion) associated with the shoreline of Loughborough Lake. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 41/24 Flooding: The maximum recorded water level for Loughborough Lake is 125.1 metres geodetic. For Loughborough Lake, the maximum recorded water level is used in lieu of an engineered flood plain. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 41/24
Page 76 of 224
(see description below) requires that all development be set back a minimum of 6 metres from the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Based on topographic mapping and the site plan submitted with the application, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will be located outside of the flooding hazard and applicable setback. Erosion: Cataraqui Conservation, in accordance with provincial technical standards, defines the extent of potential erosion hazards to include an allowance for toe erosion (3 m), a stable slope allowance of 3:1 for till shorelines, plus an erosion access allowance of 6 metres. Topographic mapping suggests that the shoreline embankment is roughly 0.5 m in this location, therefore staff have determined the total erosion hazard to be 10.5 metres measured inland from the stable toe of slope. Based on the site plan submitted with the application, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will be located outside of the erosion hazard limit. Staff have no concerns from a natural hazards perspective. If approved, staff recommend that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. We also recommend the maintenance and enhancement of a healthy buffer of native vegetation between all buildings/structures and the water, to help stabilize soils into the long-term. Recommendation In summary, staff have no objection to the approval of application PL-ZNA-2024-0026 based on our review of natural hazard and regulatory policies. We also recommend implementation of the above-noted best practice measures (in bold text) and advise the applicant that a CRCA permit will be required at the building permit stage. Ontario Regulation 41/24 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 41/24: Prohibited Activities, Exemptions and Permits (formerly O. Reg. 148/06), which is administered by the CRCA. The purpose of the regulation is to ensure that proposed changes (e.g. development and site alteration) to a property are not affected by natural hazards, such as flooding and erosion, and that the changes do not put other properties at greater risk from these hazards. For this property, any development (buildings and structures) and site alteration (excavation, grading, placement of fill) within 15 metres of the floodplain and within 19 metres of the toe of slope is subject to O. Reg. 41/24. Therefore, a CRCA permit will be required for the development. The landowner(s) should contact CRCA’s office at the building permit stage for more information about permitting requirements under O. Reg. 41/24. Please inform this office of any decision made by the Committee with regard to this application. If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned at 613-546-4228 ext. 239, or by email at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly,
Janelle Treash, RPP, MCIP Resource Planner

Permission Application (S. 45(2) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2024-0026, Kubes, 4725 Noble Lane, Storrington District
Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of this application for permission to enlarge a legal non-conforming dwelling under section 45(2) of the Planning Act, subject to conditions. Background The Committee of Adjustment granted a minor variance to construct a small addition to the existing cottage in 2018. The current application is being reviewed as a permit to enlarge a legal non-conforming use because the original cottage (pre-addition) pre-dates the Zoning By-law and is less than 30 metres from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The current application was originally submitted in March of 2024. Planning Staff outlined concerns to the applicants related to the scale of the proposed development and its impact on the functionality of the property. In response to these concerns, the applicants submitted a revised proposal in June of 2024. Revisions included re-orienting the proposed dwelling and removing a portion of the deck, thus improving the highwater mark setback distance. The location of the sewage tank was also moved to the west of the proposed dwelling to be on the same side as the leaching area, improving its overall functionality. Official Plan Designation: Settlement Area Zoning: Limited Service Residential – Waterfront Relief Requested The applicant seeks permission under section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge the legal non-conforming dwelling on the property within 30m of the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. Relief is also sought from the 10m rear yard required in the RLSW zone. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act.

Property Description The subject property is an undersized parcel of land (1578sqm) with approximately 29.5m of frontage on Noble Lane, and 33.6m of frontage on the south shore of Loughborough Lake. Access to the subject property is via Noble Lane, which extends directly from Battersea Road to the south. Existing development is located in approximately the middle of the property and consists of a seasonal dwelling with attached deck, and a shed. Vegetation coverage varies slightly across the property. For example, the area adjacent to Noble Lane is well treed, the developed portion around the existing dwelling is mostly cleared, and the shoreline area features minimal mature tree and vegetation growth. Regarding topography, the shoreline area and developed portion near the dwelling are mostly flat. The area to the rear of the dwelling slopes upwards considerably towards Noble Lane. Finally, the surrounding area consists of similar style limited service residential development, in addition to some existing agricultural uses. Proposal The subject property is currently developed with a 133sqm one storey seasonal dwelling with 43sqm attached deck, setback approximately 10.6m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing dwelling and a shed. They propose to build a four-season 2-storey dwelling with walkout basement. The proposed dwelling would be built partially within the existing footprint, with additional area being added to the south away from shoreline. The proposed dwelling (153.9sqm) with attached covered deck (33sqm) and attached garage (62.2sqm) would have a ground floor area of 250sqm and a gross floor area of 331sqm. The building would be setback a minimum of 14.1m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. Building height would increase from 4m to 10.7m. The proposed dwelling would have a 9m rear yard setback. The existing sewage system would be replaced with a new system that would be farther from the lake. Department and Agency Comments Cataraqui Conservation provided comment on July 30, 2024. CRCA Staff have no objection to the approval of the permission application based on consideration for natural hazards and regulatory policies. Staff note that the proposal is located in an area subject to Ontario Regulation 41/24 under the Conservation Authority Act. Therefore, a CRCA development permit will be required for the proposed development. Building Services provided comment on July 24, 2024. Staff have no objection to the proposed sewage location. Further, it was noted that the system location and type are both an improvement over the existing sewage system. Public Services did not provide comment on the application, as the subject property is located on a private lane. Public Comments No public comments were received at the time of writing this report. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0026
Planning Analysis The Township Official Plan Schedule designates the subject property as Settlement Area and the property is zoned RLSW by Zoning By-law No. 2003-75. The dwelling is a permitted use. Section 5.10.2 of the Zoning By-law states that existing buildings with less than the minimum 30m setback from the highwater mark of a waterbody may be repaired, renovated, or strengthened to a safe condition provided there is no enlargement of the gross floor area or increase in height. This provision prohibits the enlargement of these existing buildings, without seeking permission from the Committee of Adjustment. The Zoning By-law considers the existing seasonal dwelling as a legal non-conforming building because it was constructed prior to the current Zoning By-law and is setback 10.6m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. Through its powers under section 45(2) of the Planning Act, the Committee of Adjustment may grant permission to enlarge the dwelling. The criteria for considering an application under Section 45(2) are: •
Whether the application is desirable for the appropriate development of the subject property; and
•
Whether the application will result in undue adverse impacts on the surrounding properties and neighbourhood.
The existing seasonal dwelling on the subject property is setback approximately 10.6m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. Comparatively, the proposed four-season dwelling would have a highwater mark setback of 15.7m, with the attached covered deck being setback approximately 14.1m. Therefore, the proposed dwelling would improve upon the highwater mark setback of the existing. The existing dwelling is one-storey and has a gross floor area of 133sqm, whereas the proposed dwelling is two-storeys and would have a gross floor area of 331sqm. The building height of the dwelling would increase from 4m to 10.7m. In a latter section of this report, Township Staff will outline proposed mitigative measures to address potential visual impacts as a result of the proposed scale of development. The existing dwelling and attached deck have a footprint of approximately 176sqm, a lot coverage value of approximately 11.8%. The proposed dwelling with attached covered deck and attached garage would have a footprint of 250sqm, a lot coverage value of approximately 15.8%. The footprint of only the dwelling component of the building (i.e., no attached structures) would be increasing from 133sqm to 154sqm. A portion of the new dwelling would be built within the footprint of the existing, an overlap of approximately 90sqm. The proposed covered deck would be a similar size as the existing deck and would exist in a similar location with approximately 10sqm of overlap. The remaining area, including the attached garage, would be on the south side of the proposed dwelling, away from the shoreline. The proposed garage would have an approximately 62.2sqm footprint but would mostly be located outside of the 30m setback from the highwater mark. The proposed garage www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 81 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0026
would facilitate the removal of the existing storage shed. Finally, there would no longer be sufficient space on the property for any future accessory buildings or additions in the future. The proposed attached garage on the south half of the property is to be setback 9m from the rear lot line, whereas the Zoning By-law requires a minimum of 10m. The reduced rear yard setback is proposed in an effort to increase the setback distance from the shoreline. Setback 9m from the rear lot line, there would still be sufficient space for a vehicle to safely stop or park on the driveway between the garage and Noble Lane. Therefore, Planning Staff interpret this reduction as appropriate. The proposed dwelling would be serviced by a new sewage disposal system. The existing system is located on the east side of the property, with the treatment area being setback 17.8m from the highwater mark. The main treatment component of the replacement system would be located in the southwest corner of the property, setback 30m from the highwater mark. The improved location and treatment level of the replacement system should mitigate nutrient loading into the lake associated with the increased living space and transition in use from seasonal to year-round occupancy. In association with the replacement system, the recommended shoreline remediation plan will assist in filtering and slowing water down as it travels towards the lake. It is the opinion of Planning Staff that the proposed dwelling is large relative to the area of the property, as is evident from the increase in lot coverage. However, current zoning regulations cannot be considered when reviewing application to enlarge a legal non-conforming structure. Rather, Planning Staff must review the proposal in the context of appropriateness and the possibility for negative impacts. When assessing appropriateness, Planning Staff have regard for the existing pattern of development in the surrounding area. Historically, the surrounding area consisted primarily of seasonal residences. More recently, there has been a shift towards larger, year-round homes. For example, there are several properties in the surrounding area with year-round dwellings of comparable size. It should be noted that these comparable dwellings typically exist on larger properties but are also typically closer to the shoreline. Additionally, many properties in the area lack sufficient vegetative buffers along the shoreline. As such, the proposed development would not necessarily conflict with existing patterns of development in the surrounding area. However, it is the opinion of Planning Staff that the proposal should be used as an opportunity to promote more responsible shoreline development practices, and to improve the existing conditions of the subject property, where feasible. Planning Staff do have concerns related to the proposed development. Specifically, the increased scale of development, the loss of trees and vegetation and the existing substandard shoreline buffer area. To address these concerns, Staff feel that it is appropriate for the Committee of Adjustment to require the subject property to be placed under Site Plan Control. The required Site Plan Control agreement would address matters, including but not limited to, lot grading and drainage and shoreline remediation. A lot grading and drainage plan would ensure that the increased runoff associated with the proposed development is appropriately managed. The shoreline remediation plan should consist of a variety of native vegetation species, including low growing plants, shrubs and trees. The shoreline remediation plan would work in tandem with the lot grading and drainage planning, acting as www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 82 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0026
a filtering mechanism and reducing infiltration into the lake. Further, once the planted trees and vegetation have an opportunity to grow, they will act as a visual buffer from the lake. The shoreline remediation plan could facilitate the removal of existing impervious surface in the shoreline area (i.e., fireplace and rock wall) in favour of native vegetation. The agreement could also address lighting. The subject property is considerably undersized, and the proposed dwelling is large compared to the existing dwelling. However, there are components of the proposed development which would facilitate an improvement over the existing conditions of the subject property. For example, the highwater mark setback is being improved and a new sewage system would be installed. Additionally, Site Plan Control would facilitate the remediation of the shoreline area and ensure appropriate runoff control. The re-vegetated shoreline should mitigate negative impacts associated with the development and promote more responsible shoreline development practices. For these reasons, Planning Staff interpret the proposal as desirable for appropriate development of the subject property, and unlikely to result in undue adverse impacts on surrounding properties, the neighbourhood or Loughborough Lake. Conclusion It is the opinion of staff that it is appropriate for the Committee of Adjustment to grant permission to expand the legal non-conforming dwelling on the property, as described in this report. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Statutory Public Hearing was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 10 days in advance of the Public Hearing. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and, pending comments received, approve application PL-ZNA-2024-0026 for 4725 Noble Lane, subject to the following conditions.
- Permission is granted to enlarge the legal non-conforming dwelling on the subject property. The location, area and height of the replacement dwelling shall be consistent with the Proposed Site Plan (Groundwork Engineering Inc, revision 2, dated May 28,

the Minor Variance Form
- Reason why you can’t comply: In other words, why can you not meet the required setbacks. It could be, for example, because you are seeking a variance to add on to an existing structure
—
Nature and Extent of Relief: This question is asking what you are asking to do that requires the variance for example, it could be that you are asking to be 25 m rather than 30 m from the high water mark, or that you are asking to increase the height of a structure within 30 m of the high water mark, or that you are seeking a variance to construct an accessory building closer to the front lot line than the principal building.
Current zoning: You may not be aware of the zoning on your property and this can be determined when you come in for pre-consultation with planning staff.
Frontage, depth, area, acres: All parts of this question must be completed.
—
Description of the Subject Land: a. District: The Districts are the same as the former Townships. If you are not sure, check the roll number (the long number beginning with 1029) on your tax bill. lfthe numbers are 010, 020 or 030, your district is Bedford;if the numbers are 040-050, your district is Loughborough; if the numbers are 060 or 070, your district is Storrington; and if the numbers are 080, your district is Portland. b. Concession and Lot Numbers: if you are not sure, check your tax bill if a civic number has not been assigned, leave this c. Street Number: Your civic address space blank; d. Name of Road/Street: This question applies whether or not you are on a private lane or a public road. e. Reference Plan No: if your property has been surveyed, it will have a plan number, and one or more parts on that plan. If your property has not been surveyed, leave this space blank. f. Roll No: This is the number beginning with ‘1029’ which appears on your tax bill. Please take time to look it up before submitting the application.

19)Date land
acquired: When did you take possession of the property?
18)Uses of Development: Please answer each part of this question. An increase in living space would include anything with walls e.g. a screened porch would involve an increase in living space.
17)Raising of Structure: In other words, are you proposing to raise the building in order to construct a basement under it.
Demolition: All demolition requires a permit from the building department. In some instances, a proposed addition or increase in height cannot be accomplished without the removal of existing walls. If this is not made clear to the Committee at the beginning of the process, you may find that, although you are granted permission to add on to your residence, you can’t actually do it because you have not made it clear that there is demolition involved.
Description of new construction: ALL proposed new development must be described here. If you are proposing to construct an addition to a dwelling, and to add a deck, please show this information in separate columns.
—~
Proposed structures: If you are planning to build ANYTHING on the property, the answer to this question is “yes” This includes additions, decks, garages, septic systems.
Proposed Uses: Generally, the answer to this question will be the same as the answer to #10, but if, for example, the land is currently vacant, and you are planning to construct a dwelling, then the use to be described in section 10 would be “vacant recreational land”, and the use described in section 13 would be “residential”
Description of buildings and structures: You must complete all sections of this question for each structure on your property. If there is a deck on your dwelling, please describe it separately from the residence.
Buildings: If there are ANY buildings or structures on the property now, the answer to this question is “yes”.
Existing Uses: e.g. residential, retail business, vacant recreational land

Site & Project Description
2.1
Site Description
The proposed development property is located at 158 Coyote Lane in South Frontenac, Ontario. The property contains a steep slope towards the south side and is currently unoccupied and undeveloped with the exception of the existing driveway, hydro poles, and temporary structures in proximity to the shoreline. The property is bound to the immediate north, east, and west by forested lands and to the south by Bobs Lake. The surface of the Site consists of gravel within the driveway area while grass or topsoil is generally present at the surface throughout the remainder of the property. The immediate investigation limits are variable between test pit locations but were generally flat within the areas of investigation.
2.2
Project Description
It is Cambium’s understanding that the proposed developments include the addition of a new two-storey residential building addition to be located within the tableland at the top of the slope. In addition to the building, it is understood that a septic system is proposed to be located east of the proposed building. The geotechnical investigation was required to confirm the existing subsurface conditions, groundwater conditions, and soil bearing capacity as input into the design and construction of the proposed developments. Geotechnical recommendations such as the potential re-use of soils, frost penetration, groundwater elevation, and dewatering are provided along with Site Plans, including test pit locations, in Figure 2 of this report. A wastewater investigation and septic system design was requested and completed in conjunction with the geotechnical investigation. Results and analysis from the wastewater investigation are to be presented under a separate cover to be issued by Cambium. This report should be read in conjunction with the wastewater report to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the existing site conditions and recommendations for the proposed developments.

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
It is understood that the Client is considering a minor variance application to allow the proposed building to be constructed approximately 10 meters from the existing top of slope and within the 15-meter top of slope setback. To support the variance application, it is understood that the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority has requested a slope stability analysis. As such, this report has been updated to include findings and analysis from the visual slope stability assessment, completed simultaneously with the geotechnical investigation, and opinions on the feasibility of the proposed developments with relevant construction recommendations.

Methodology
The geotechnical investigation and slope stability assessment were conducted at the Site by Cambium on September 26, 2023. Test pits were advanced nearby the proposed development footprints as shown in Figure 2.
3.1 Test Pit Investigation A total of seven test pits, designated as TP101-23 through TP107-23 were strategically placed and advanced throughout the site at locations approved by the Client to depths between approximately 0.3 to 1.2 meters below ground surface (mbgs). Test pits were terminated after excavator refusal was encountered. Excavating and sampling of the test pits was completed using an excavator operating under the supervision of a Cambium technician. Soil samples were collected whenever a change in soil type occurred, starting directly from the surface material. The encountered soil units were logged in the field using visual and tactile methods, and samples were placed in labelled plastic bags for transport, future reference, possible laboratory testing, and storage. Open test pits were checked for groundwater and general stability prior to backfilling. All test pits were backfilled, and the property was reinstated to pre-existing conditions. Test pit logs are provided in Appendix A. Site soil and groundwater conditions are described, and geotechnical recommendations are discussed in the following sections of this report.
3.2
Site Survey
Test pit locations are shown in Figure 2. The location of each test pit was referenced locally by a Cambium technician using a Total Station surveying unit. UTM coordinates and relative elevations are included on the test pit logs provided in Appendix A. A nail installed within an existing hydro pole was used as a benchmark for the survey. The benchmark is depicted as ‘BM’ on Figure 2 and was assigned an elevation of 100.00 m.REL. A 15 m top of slope setback and a 30 m high water mark setback were surveyed and staked out in the field, as requested by the Client. All relevant setbacks are depicted on Figure 2.

3.3 Physical Laboratory Testing Physical laboratory testing, consisting of three sieve analysis (LS-702) was completed on selected soil samples to confirm textural classification and to assess geotechnical parameters. Moisture content testing was completed on all soil samples. Results are presented in Appendix B and are discussed in Section 4.0.

Subsurface Conditions
The stratigraphy encountered in the test pits is indicated on the attached test pit logs in Appendix A. It is noted that the conditions indicated on the test pit logs are for specific locations only and can vary between and beyond the test pit locations. The soil boundaries indicated on the test pit logs are inferred from non-continuous sampling and observations during excavations. These boundaries are intended to reflect approximate transition zones and should not be interpreted as exact planes of geological change. In addition, the descriptions provided in the test pit logs are inferred from a variety of factors, including visual observations of the soil samples retrieved, laboratory testing, measurements prior to and after excavating, and the excavating process itself. The subsurface conditions at the Site generally consisted of a gravel or topsoil surface material underlain by sand to silty sand soils that extended to test pit termination depths. Excavator refusal was encountered in all test pits advanced. The various soil strata are described in detail below and are identified on the test pit logs included in Appendix A.
4.1 Surface Soils Test pits TP103-23, TP104-23, and TP107-23 were advanced through the existing gravel surface material while the remaining test pits were advanced within grassed areas through organic materials. The encountered surface material thicknesses are summarized in Table 1 below.

Analysis of the organic content within the topsoil materials was beyond the scope of this investigation.
4.2 Sand to Silty Sand Underlying the surficial gravel or topsoil, sand to silty sand soils were encountered in all test pits advanced. The sand to silty sand soils generally contained trace to some gravel content in addition to trace amounts of clay content and extended to termination depths in all test pits. The sand to silty sand soils were light brown to reddish-brown in colour and were moist at the time of the investigation with natural moisture content ranging between 5.2 to 16.5% based on laboratory testing. Laboratory particle size distribution analysis was completed for three samples of the sand to silty sand soils, taken from the test pits and depths indicated below. The analysis results, based on the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) scale, are summarized in Table 2 with full results provided in Appendix B.

4.4 Groundwater At the time of the investigation, groundwater seepage was not encountered within any test pit advanced during the investigation. Based on these results, it is inferred that the stable groundwater level is located within the bedrock. It should be noted that groundwater levels at the Site may fluctuate seasonally and in response to climatic events.

Slope Stability Assessment
A visual slope stability assessment was completed at the Site where Cambium observed the existing slope conditions and determined the slope stability rating as per the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) Technical Guide - River and Stream Systems: Erosion Hazard Limit (henceforth referred to as the MNR Technical Guide) guidelines. For the purposes of this report, the slope evaluated extends from south of the existing tableland (top of slope) to the Bobs Lake shoreline or north of the shoreline (toe of slope), as shown in Figure 2. It should be noted that the locations of the evaluated top and bottom of slope are approximate and were determined based on visual observations and measurements made during the assessment. General information pertaining to the existing slope features such as slope profile, slope drainage, vegetation cover, structures on or in the vicinity of the slopes, erosion features, and potential slope slide features were noted during the inspections. A summary is provided in the sections below.
5.1 Assessment and Observations The existing slope contains a maximum height of approximately 6.5 m with the maximum gradient of the slope measuring approximately 20º (1V:2.8H). The tableland within the vicinity of the existing and proposed structures was relatively flat with minor changes in elevation. The surface of the tableland contained grass, bush, and occasional trees along the perimeter. The tableland was devoid of structures with the exception of existing hydro poles and a gravel driveway. No permanent structures were observed along the slope face or at the toe of slope. A seasonal dock was observed at the shoreline of Bobs Lake. Gentle landscaping features such as a natural walking path were observed along the slope crest, face, or toe during the field investigation. Assessment of the soil stratigraphy at the property was based on visual observations and test pits excavated within the proposed development footprints at the tableland. Based on the observations made during the investigation, the soil cover on the slope consists of a thin layer

of organic topsoil (generally less than 0.3 m) overlying bedrock. In some locations, exposed bedrock was observed directly at the surface along the slope face. The slope face was noted to be heavily vegetated with a mixture of mature trees and undergrowth that has resulted in a healthy root system across the entire face of the slope. Weathered bedrock outcrops were frequently observed throughout the tableland, face, and toe of slope. No active erosion was noted along the slope toe, face, or crest. No evidence of drainage or seepage associated with instability was noted throughout the slope toe, face, or crest at the time of inspection. Water course features were not observed. There are no previous signs of landslide activity.
5.2 Existing Slope Rating Based on Section 4.3.2. in the MNR Technical Guide, the existing slope has a rating of 18. Overall, the slope is considered to have a low risk of global instability. A copy of the completed rating chart is provided in Appendix C.
5.3 Opinions on Potential for Instability Based on the results of our site inspections and measurements, it is anticipated that the factor of safety of the subject slope in its existing configuration significantly exceeds the 1.5 minimum required to allow for active land use near the slope crest, as per Section 4.3.3.1. in the MNR Technical Guide. Further analysis using accepted software technologies is not considered necessary for the slope in question given the composition of the slope face. Further construction recommendations are provided in the following sections.
5.4 Opinions on Setback Requirements As per Section 3.0 in the MNR Technical Guide, the system observed within the proposed development property can be classified as a confined system. As such, the Erosion Hazard Limit, or Limit of Hazardous Lands, can generally be determined as the sum of the Toe Erosion Allowance, Stable Slope Allowance, and Erosion Access Allowance.

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
As per Table 3 in Section 3.1 of the MNR Technical Guide, the Toe Erosion Allowance can conservatively be taken as 1 m from the toe of the bank. As per Section 3.2 of the MNR Technical Guide, the Stable Slope Allowance can be used to determine the long-term stable slope crest (LTSSC). Based on the overburden material consisting of a thin layer of organic material overlying bedrock along the slope face, Cambium considers the Stable Slope Allowance or LTSSC as an invisible line extending from the existing slope toe at a 1H:1V angle to the top of the slope or the existing top of slope, whichever is greater. As the grades of the slope in question are flatter than 1H:1V, the existing slope crest or top of slope can be considered the LTSSC. As per Section 3.3 in the MNR Technical Guide the Erosion Access Allowance can generally be taken as 6 m behind the Stable Slope Allowance or LTSSC. As such, given that the LTSSC is considered the existing slope crest or top of slope for this Site, the Erosion Access Allowance can be taken as 6 m landward from the existing slope crest or top of slope. Based on the allowances described above and considering that the Stable Slope Allowance and LTSSC were determined using Cambium’s engineering judgement and experience, the Erosion Hazard Limit or Limit of Hazardous Lands for this Site can be taken as approximately 6 m landward from the existing slope crest or top of slope. As such, provided the proposed building is constructed a minimum of 6 m from the existing top of slope, the existing slope should remain stable in its current condition. It is Cambium’s understanding that the proposed building is to be constructed a minimum of 10 meters from the existing slope crest or top of slope. Therefore, it is Cambium’s opinion that the proposed developments will not impact the stability of the existing slope in its current configuration and a reduced setback requirement of 10 m from the existing top of slope is suitable for the proposed developments.
5.5 Construction Recommendations for Slope Stability Based on the results of the investigations, it is Cambium’s opinion that the proposed building will not impact the stability of the slope or result in the introduction of active erosion. However,

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
construction operations should consider the following recommendations to maximize the longterm stability and integrity of the existing slope: •
No trees are to be removed from the existing slope face and the existing slope may not be steepened in any way with fill material. Where fill material is placed to level out the grades around the proposed building, it should be placed to maintain the existing slope gradient or provide a shallower gradient. Fill placed on top of bedrock should be secured by utilizing a retaining structure dowelled or keyed into the bedrock surface.
•
Construction activities should be conducted in a manner which do not result in surface erosion of the thin layer of overlying soils on the slope. Site grading and drainage should be designed to prevent direct concentrate or channelized surface runoff from flowing directly over the slope.
•
Upon completion of the construction of the proposed building, vegetation cover is to be provided for all new or disturbed surface material at the top of the slope.
•
Water drainage from down-spouts, rain gutters, sumps, and the like should not be permitted to directly flow over the slope crest as channelized runoff.

Geotechnical Design Considerations
This section of the report provides engineering information on, and recommendations for, the geotechnical design aspects of the project based on our interpretation of the test pit information, the laboratory test data, and our understanding of the project requirements. The information in this portion of the report is provided for planning and design purposes for the guidance of the design engineers and architects. Where comments are made on construction, they are provided only to highlight aspects of construction which could affect the design of the project. Contractors bidding on or undertaking any work at the Site should examine the factual results of the investigation, satisfy themselves as to the adequacy of the information for construction and make their own independent interpretation of the factual data as it affects their proposed construction techniques, schedule, equipment capabilities, costs, sequencing, and the like. Cambium will not assume any responsibility for construction-related decisions made by contractors based on this report.
6.1 Site Preparation Any topsoil, organic fill, and any other disturbed material or native soils encountered should be excavated and removed beneath the proposed development footprints; additionally, this material should be excavated and removed to a minimum distance of 1 meter around the proposed footprint. Any topsoil and materials with significant quantities of organics and deleterious materials (i.e., construction debris, asphalt etc.) are not appropriate for use as fill. Utility trench subgrades should be inspected by a qualified geotechnical engineer prior to construction of the proposed developments. Any exposed subgrades should be proof-rolled and inspected by a qualified geotechnical engineer prior to placement of any granular fill. Any loose/soft soils identified at the time of proof-rolling that are unable to uniformly be compacted should be sub-excavated and removed. The excavations created through the removal of these materials should be backfilled with approved engineered fill consistent with the recommendations provided below.

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
The encountered sand to silty sand soils can be unstable if they are wet or saturated. Such conditions are common in the spring and late fall. Under these conditions, temporary use of granular fill, and possible reinforcing geotextiles, may be required to prevent severe rutting on construction access routes. Where possible, any existing roadways should be used for construction access routes.
6.2 Frost Penetration Based on climate data and design charts, the maximum frost penetration depth below the surface at the site is estimated at 1.6 mbgs given the building type and subsurface conditions encountered. Utilities should be founded at or below a depth of 1.6 mbgs, upon free-draining granular fill extending to below 1.6 mbgs or be adequately insulated. Intensely fractured and weathered bedrock is considered frost susceptible. If encountered at footing subgrades, the material should be excavated to moderately fractured bedrock to ensure footings are placed on non-frost susceptible, clean, sound bedrock which is not frost susceptible. Any services should be located below this depth or be appropriately insulated.
6.3 Excavations All excavations must be carried out in accordance with the latest edition of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) and Ontario Regulation 213/91 (as amended). Soils above the groundwater table can be considered Type 3 soils and as such, excavation side slopes should be no steeper than 1H:1V. Soils below the groundwater table should be treated as Type 4 soils and therefore excavation side slopes should be decreased to 3H:1V in these areas. Given that groundwater was not encountered within the investigation and is unlikely to be encountered during construction operations depending on the proposed depth, all soils can be considered Type 3 soils. Where the side slopes consist of more than one soil type, the soil shall be classified as the type with the highest number among the soil types present. Please note that the soil type

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
classifications indicated above are provisional and are subject to change based on field observations of the actual conditions at the time of exposure. Excavation slopes should be protected during construction from precipitation, runoff, or snow/ice melt and should be inspected regularly for signs of instability. If localized instability is noted during excavation or if wet conditions are encountered, the side slopes should be flattened as required to maintain safe working conditions or the excavation sidewalls must be fully supported (shored). Stockpiles of excavated materials should be kept at least at the same distance as the excavation depth from the top edge of the excavation to prevent slope instability. Care should also be taken to avoid overloading of any existing underground services/structures by stockpiles.
6.4 Dewatering Based on the results of the investigation, groundwater seepage is unlikely to be encountered during excavations and the installation of underground services or foundations depending on the proposed design. Groundwater was not encountered within any test pit advanced during the investigation. Standing water was not observed within any open test pit. Given this, it is inferred that the stable groundwater table is embedded within the underlying bedrock. Unless excavations extend into the bedrock, it is unlikely that groundwater will be encountered during construction operations. If groundwater is encountered during excavations due to surficial run off, it should be manageable with filtered sumps and pumps and a Permit to Take Water (PTTW) from the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation, and Parks (MECP) is not anticipated to be required based on the assumed typical excavation depths. Any patterns of groundwater flow trends were not recognized based on the test pit observations and a hydrogeological study would be required to understand groundwater patterns and specific dewatering requirements throughout the site.

It is noted that the elevation of the groundwater table will vary due to seasonal conditions and in response to heavy precipitation events.
6.5 Foundation Design 6.5.1 Reinforced Slab on Grade It is understood that the Client is proposing to utilize a reinforced slab on grade overlying approximately 12 inches of EPS product. Based on the provided drawings, the EPS product is to be underlain by engineered fill which will extend to native material or bedrock. Based on the bedrock depths encountered throughout the building footprint, Cambium recommends excavations for the slab extend to bedrock. A minimum of 300 mm of engineered fill shall be placed and compacted as outlined in Section 6.6.1 directly on a clean, sound bedrock surface. A reinforced slab on grade designed as outlined above may be designed using a bearing capacity of 125 kPa (SLS) and 150 kPa (ULS). A reinforced slab on grade bearing on engineered fill overlying bedrock and designed using the bearing capacities noted above will have a settlement potential at the above-noted SLS loadings of less than 25 mm.
6.5.2 Strip and Isolated Foundations Should the proposed design be altered, from a geotechnical perspective, the proposed building can generally be supported on standard strip and/or spread footings founded on competent bedrock, depending on the proposed design. Foundations bearing on competent bedrock may be designed for an allowable bearing capacity of 500 kPa at ultimate limit state (ULS). Considering bedrock is non-yielding the load required for 25 mm of compression would exceed the capacity of the founding element. Therefore, the geotechnical reaction at SLS should be assumed equal to the factored geotechnical resistance at ULS for design purposes.

Under no circumstances will the foundations be placed directly on organic materials, loose, frozen subgrade, construction debris, or within ponded water. Footings and walls exposed to frost action shall be backfilled with OPSS 1010 Granular B Type I. The quality of the subgrade should be inspected by Cambium during construction, prior to constructing the footings, to confirm bearing capacity estimates. 6.5.2.1 Slab on Grade If a conventional strip and isolated foundation system is utilized and slab on grades are required between foundations, all organic material and deleterious material must be removed prior to constructing the slab on grade. It is recommended that the slab be provided with a capillary moisture barrier. This is made by placing the slab on a minimum 200 mm layer of clear stone and nominally compacted by vibration to a dense state. Alternatively, the capillary moisture barrier can be composed of a 200 mm thick layer of OPSS.MUNI 1010 Granular A, compacted to a minimum 98% of the SPMDD. Under slab drainage is not required beyond the capillary moisture barrier provided the floor slab elevation is set at 300 mm or higher than the exterior grade. The modulus of subgrade reaction appropriate for slab on grade design on the soils at the site is as follows: Subgrade Material
Underlying Material
Subgrade Reaction
Granular A / Clearstone
Engineered Fill Over Bedrock
30 mPa/m
The subgrade for the slab must be inspected and approved by Cambium, prior to the placement of an aggregate base. If there are areas containing excessive amounts of deleterious/organic material or moisture, they must be locally sub-excavated and backfilled with approved clean earth fill or Engineered Fill such as OPSS Granular B (Type I or II) and compacted to a minimum of 98% SPMDD.

Geotechnical Investigation Report - 158 Coyote Lane Graham Dickinson Cambium Reference: 18758-001 May 28, 2024
6.6 Backfill and Compaction Excavated native soil not containing organics or significant deposits of silt may be appropriate for use as fill below grading areas, provided that the actual or adjusted moisture content at the time of construction is within a range that permits compaction to required densities. Some moisture content adjustments may be required depending upon seasonal conditions. Geotechnical inspections and testing of engineered fill are required to confirm acceptable quality. Onsite materials containing significant deposits of silt and clay may be re-used for landscaping purposes at the discretion of a landscape architect. Foundation wall backfill, if any, should consist of free-draining imported granular material as required. If onsite soils are not sufficiently free draining, this should be accomplished using well graded Granular B Type I or II material complying with OPSS 1010. If a drainage layer membrane is used against the foundation, then Granular B material may not be required, but the proposed backfill material should be inspected and approved by a geotechnical engineer prior to placement. Backfill should be placed in lifts not exceeding 200 mm in thickness and compacted to 98% of SPMDD. Placement of engineered fill should be verified by onsite compaction testing during construction.
6.6.1 Engineered Fill When the fill is treated as an engineered fill to support structural elements such as foundations and or floor slabs, the following is recommended for the construction of engineered fill: I.
Remove any and all existing vegetation, surficial topsoil/ organics, organic fills or fills and any loose soils to a competent subgrade for a suitable envelope;
II.
As a minimum, the area of the engineered fill should extend horizontally 1 meter beyond the outside edge of the foundations then extend downward at a 1:1 slope to the competent native soil;
III.
The subgrade or base of the engineered fill area must be approved by Cambium prior to placement of any new fill, to ensure that suitability of subgrade conditions;

IV.
Place approved OPSS 1010 SSM or Granular ‘B’ Type I material at a moisture content at or near optimum moisture in suitable maximum 200 mm thick lifts, compacted to 100% of SPMDD. Any frost penetration into the fill material must be removed prior to placement of subsequent lifts of fill and reviewed by Cambium;
V.
Full time testing and inspection of the engineered fill will be required for it to be used as a founding material, as outlined in Section 4.2.2.2 of the Ontario Building Code.
6.7 Buried Utilities Trench excavations above the groundwater table should generally consider Type 3 soil conditions, which require side slopes no steeper than 1H:1V, otherwise shoring would be required. Any excavations below the water table should generally consider Type 4 soil conditions which require side slopes of 3H:1V or flatter or shoring. Bedding and cover material for any services should consist of OPSS 1010 Granular A or B Type II, placed in accordance with pertinent Ontario Provincial Standard Drawings (OPSD 802.013). The bedding and cover material shall be placed in maximum 200 mm thick lifts and should be compacted to at least 98% of SPMDD. The cover material shall be a minimum of 300 mm over the top of the pipe and compacted to 98% of SPMDD, taking care not to damage the utility pipes during compaction. If bedding is being placed in wet conditions consideration should be given to using 19 mm crushed clear stone underlain by a geotextile (Terrafix 270R or similar).
6.8 Design Review and Inspections Testing and inspections should be carried out during construction operations to examine and approve subgrade conditions, fill material, compaction of pipe bedding, trench backfill, granular base courses, and asphaltic concrete. We should be contacted to review and approve design drawings to ensure that all pertinent geotechnical-related factors have been addressed. It is important that onsite geotechnical supervision be provided at this site for excavation and backfill procedures, deleterious soil removal, subgrade inspections and compaction testing.

August 6, 2024 24-SFR-MVA (BEDFORD) PL-ZNA-2024-0083 Township of South Frontenac Committee of Adjustment P.O. Box 100 4432 George Street Sydenham, ON K0H 2T0 Contact: Attention:
Tom Fehr
Subject:
Graham & Mary Dickinson (Owners) Application for Minor Variance – PL-ZNA-2024-0083 Concession 2 Lot 23 Former Township of Bedford, Now the Township of South Frontenac Civic Address: 158 Coyote Lane ———————————————————————————————————–Dear Mr. Fehr, The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) has reviewed the subject application within the context of:
- Section 3.1 Natural Hazards of the Provincial Policy Statement under Section 3 of the Planning Act,
- The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority O. Regulation 41/24 under Section 28 of the Conservation Authorities Act),
- The Mississippi-Rideau Source Protection Plan. THE PROPOSAL The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority understands the subject application is seeking a minor variance to allow a dwelling to be setback less than the 15 metres for the top of bank as required by the zoning by-law. The dwelling would be sent back 10 metres from the top of bank. RVCA COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Review Comments Provincial Policy Statement Regarding 3.1 of the PPS, there are no natural hazards that would preclude this application. The site has steep slopes and a report titled, “Geotechnical Investigation Report – 158 Coyote Page 1 of 3
Page 143 of 224
Lane, dated May 28, 2024 and prepared for Graham Dickinson, by Cambium Inc, Reference: 18758-001” was produced to assess the slope hazard. Based on the report, “Overall the slope is considered to have low risk of global instability”. Based on Cambium’s research, using MNR Technical Guide; “As such, provided that the proposed building is constructed a minimum of 6 m from the existing top of slope, the existing slope should remain stable in its current condition. It is Cambium’s understanding that the proposed building will be constructed a minimum of 10 metres from the existing slope crest or top of slope. Therefore, it is Cambium’s opinion that the proposed developments will not impact the stability of the existing slope in its current configuration and a reduced setback requirement of 10 m from the existing top of slope is suitable for the proposed developments.” Ontario Regulation 41/24 The shoreline of Bobs Lake and 15m inland is regulated under Ontario Regulation 41/24. As such, should any alterations or modifications to the shoreline be proposed, prior written permission is required in accordance with our regulation the Prohibited Activities, Exemptions and Permits Regulation made pursuant to the Conservation Authorities Act, R.S.O., 1990, chapter 27, as amended. For this application there is no approval under the aforementioned regulation required. Mississippi Rideau Source Water Protection Plan Most of South Frontenac has been identified as a highly vulnerable aquifer as stated in the catchment report and indicated in the Mississippi-Rideau Source Water Protection Plan. These are aquifers that are vulnerable to surface contaminants due to thin or absent soils overlying bedrock that may be fractured. Where these conditions exist, it may be possible for contaminants to enter drinking groundwater supplies. For this reason, care should be taken to avoid land use and practices that may inadvertently lead to undesirable effects on groundwater. Some best practices that could be considered include: •
increased well casing depths,
•
increased distance of septic systems from drinking water wells,
•
ensuring wells are located upgradient of septic sewage disposal systems,
•
ensuring that wells and septic systems are properly maintained,
•
avoiding use of pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers.
Discussion & Recommendations From a natural hazard perspective, the reduced setback for the proposed development is supported by a report that is authored by accredited professional engineers with an accredited engineering consulting firm. Conclusion In conclusion, the RVCA does not object to the approval of the minor variance as presented. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned should you have any questions. Page 2 of 3

Please advise the RVCA on the committee’s decision regarding this application or of any changes in its status.

Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2024-0083, Graham and Mary Dickenson, 158 Coyote Lane, District of Bedford
Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of the subject application for zoning relief for a single detached dwelling, subject to conditions, as this application meets the four tests of a minor variance outlined in section 45(1) of the Planning Act. Background Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: RLSW Proposal The Owner proposes to construct a single detached dwelling on the property. The dwelling would be set back 10 metres from the top of bank. A minor variance is being requested to allow the dwelling to be set back less than 15 metres from the top of bank as required by the Zoning By-law. Zoning Relief Requested Section 5.8.2(b) – to permit a single detached dwelling to be setback a minimum of 10 metres from the top of bank, whereas a minimum 15 metre setback is required for all buildings and structures. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act. Property Description The subject property is vacant and is 1.7 hectare in area and has 107 metres of frontage on Bobs Lake. The property is accessed by Coyote Lane which abuts the property along the north property line. The property rises up from Coyote Lane to a high point roughly in the www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

middle of the property, after which the property slopes down steeply to the shoreline of the lake. The property contains mature tree cover and is located in an area of similar waterfront residential development. Department and Agency Comments The application has been circulated to Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, no comments have been received at the time of writing this report. Public Comments No public comments have been received at the time of writing this report. Supporting Documentation A Geotechnical Investigation and Slope and Erosion Assessment (Cambium, May 28, 2024) was submitted in support of the application. The consultant assessed the shoreline slope for type of bedrock, angle, and stability which found that the slope is composed of 0.3 m of overburden topsoil and fill overlying bedrock extending down to the slope toe and beyond. Based on these conditions and the existing slope configuration, the slope is currently stable. The report concluded that the proposed development will not impact the stability of the existing slope in its current configuration and a reduced setback requirement of 10 m from the existing top of slope is suitable for the proposed developments. The report recommended the following construction practices be implemented to further protect the slope from instability:
No trees are to be removed from the existing slope face and the existing slope may not be steepened in any way with fill material. Where fill material is placed to level out the grades around the proposed building, it should be placed to maintain the existing slope gradient or provide a shallower gradient. Fill placed on top of bedrock should be secured by utilizing a retaining structure dowelled or keyed into the bedrock surface. Construction activities should be conducted in a manner which do not result in surface erosion of the thin layer of overlying soils on the slope. Site grading and drainage should be designed to prevent direct concentrate or channelized surface runoff from flowing directly over the slope. Upon completion of the construction of the proposed building, vegetation cover is to be provided for all new or disturbed surface material at the top of the slope. Water drainage from down-spouts, rain gutters, sumps, and the like should not be permitted to directly flow over the slope crest as channelized runoff.
Planning Analysis The proposal needs to be assessed against the four tests of a minor variance outlined in Section 45(1) of the Planning Act. It is the opinion of Planning staff that the proposal meets the four tests as explained below. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 147 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0083
The proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan related to waterfront residential development, and development adjacent to environmentally sensitive areas. The variances would facilitate construction of a dwelling on lands that are designated Rural in the Official Plan on Schedule A. The topography of the proposed lot is challenging and characterized by a number of changes in elevation. The proposed dwelling is located in the only relatively level area on the property – this location is close to the top of bank of a steep slope. Section 5.2.4 of the Official Plan states that the Township will direct development or site alterations away from lands identified by the municipality which may be subject to shoreline erosion hazards. This is typically done through the implementation of a 15 metre setback from the top of bank, as required by the Zoning By-law. A Slope and Erosion Assessment was completed that determined that it would be safe for the proposed dwelling to be setback only 10 metres from the top of bank. The proposed location of the building envelope, and the size of the dwelling, minimizes site alteration required and the development complies with the setback from highwater mark, as intended by section 5.2.7(b) of the Official Plan. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The proposed dwelling is a permitted use in the RLSW zone. The dwelling was designed to comply with the setback from both the highwater mark and all other applicable setbacks. Also, the setback of the sewage system complies with the setback from the highwater mark. The reduced setback from the top of bank is supported by a Slope and Erosion Assessment. The proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the requested variance desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land, building or structure in question? The requested variances are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The proposed dwelling and sewage system locations are located in a relatively level area of the property that will minimize site alteration and vegetation removal required (e.g. maintain topography, soil mantle and existing vegetation), and ensure the development is located more than 30 metres from the highwater mark. Is the variance minor? The requested variance is minor as it maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, and are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. They are not anticipated to impact the existing or planned functionality of the property and adjacent properties. Trees and vegetation maintained along the shoreline and top of bank www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.

would provide visual screening and buffering to the lake. The requested variances are minor in nature. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Statutory Public Hearing was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 10 days in advance of the Public Hearing. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and, pending comments received, approve minor variance application PL-ZNA-2024-083 for 158 Coyote Lane, subject to the following conditions.
- The minor variance is for a single detached dwelling. The dwelling is permitted to establish a minimum 10 metre setback a minimum from the top of bank. The location of the dwelling on the property must be consistent with the application sketch provided with the application.
- The Owner is required to enter into a Development Agreement to be registered on the title of the property to the satisfaction of the Township to address the following matters and environmental standards of the Township: a. Appropriate erosion control measures (e.g. silt fence, straw bales) must be used during construction and until the site is stable and revegetated. b. Roof runoff will be directed away from the lake and discharged to natural or constructed leaching pits/areas to maximize infiltration or onto coarse rock rubble splash pads to reduce the velocity of runoff. c. A natural vegetated buffer must be maintained in its natural state within 30 metres of the lake and along the steep slope, except in the immediate area of the building envelope.
- A building permit is required for ALL proposed demolition and construction on the property. There shall be no additional development on the property without the approval from the Township of South Frontenac.
- Minor variance PL-ZNA-2024-0083 is applicable only to Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 and not to any subsequent zoning by-laws.

the Minor Variance Form
Reason why you can’t comply: In other words, why can you not meet the required setbacks. It could be, for example, because you are seeking a variance to add on to an existing structure
—
Nature and Extent of Relief: This question is asking what you are asking to do that requires the variance for example, it could be that you are asking to be 25 m rather than 30 m from the high water mark, or that you are asking to increase the height of a structure within 30 m of the high water mark, or that you are seeking a variance to construct an accessory building closer to the front lot line than the principal building.
Current zoning: You may not be aware of the zoning on your property and this can be determined when you come in for pre-consultation with planning staff.
Frontage, depth, area, acres: All parts of this question must be completed.
—
Description of the Subject Land: a. District: The Districts are the same as the former Townships. If you are not sure, check the roll number (the long number beginning with 1029) on your tax bill. lfthe numbers are 010, 020 or 030, your district is Bedford; if the numbers are 040-050, your district is Loughborough; if the numbers are 060 or 070, your district is Storrington; and if the numbers are 080, your district is Portland. b. Concession and Lot Numbers: if you are not sure, check your tax bill if a civic number has not been assigned, leave this c. Street Number: Your civic address space blank. d. Name of Road/Street: This question applies whether or not you are on a private lane or a public road. e. Reference Plan No: If your property has been surveyed, it will have a plan number, and one or more parts on that plan. If your property has not been surveyed, leave this space blank. f. Roll No: This is the number beginning with ‘1029’ which appears on your tax bill. Please take time to look it up before submitting the application.
You may wish to appoint someone to act on your behalfduring the variance process. If so, that person’s name, address and phone number should appear here All owner’s must sign the authorization.
The names of all owners must appear in this section, even if they live in separate residences, and the address(es) should be the full mailing address, complete with postal code.

19)Date land acquired: When did you take possession of the property?
18)Uses of Development: Please answer each part of this question. An increase in living space would include anything with walls e.g. a screened porch would involve an increase in living space.
‘
17)Raising of Structure: In other words, are you proposing to raise the building in order to construct a basement under it.
Demolition: All demolition requires a permit from the building department. In some instances, a proposed addition or increase in height cannot be accomplished without the removal of existing walls. Ifthis is not made clear to the Committee at the beginning of the process, you may find that, although you are granted permission to add on to your residence, you can’t actually do it because you have not made it clear that there is demolition involved.
Description of new construction: ALL proposed new development must be described here. If you are proposing to construct an addition to a dwelling, and to add a deck, please show this information in separate columns.
—-
Proposed structures: Ifyou are planning to build ANYTHINGon the property, the answer to this question is “yes” This includes additions, decks, garages, septic systems.
Proposed Uses: Generally, the answer to this question will be the same as the answer to #10, but if, for example, the land is currently vacant, and you are planning to construct a dwelling, then the use to be described in section 10 would be “vacant recreational land”, and the use described in section 13 would be “residential”
Description of buildings and structures: You must complete all sections of this question for each structure on your property. If there is a deck on your dwelling, please describe it separately from the residence.
Buildings: If there are ANY buildings or structures on the property now, the answer to this question is “yes”.
Existing Uses: e.g. residential, retail business, vacant recreational land
Parking and Docking: This question is only relevant is you can only access your property by water.

Agreement to Indemnify: Must be signed in front of a commissioner of oaths you may have this done before submitting the application, or sign the application in front of staff who can sign as commissioners. All owners must sign the application, or it can be signed by an agent if one has been appointed.
SKETCH: We cannot stress enough the importance of a detailed, accurate, and complete sketch. You do not necessarily need to contract with a professional to draw the sketch, but sketches that are not drawn to scale, do not show dimensions and distances, or are not drawn neatly (PLEASE USE A RULER), will not be accepted.
If yes: If there has been a previous variance granted ontheproperty, please indicate the application number if known, and what the details of the variance were.
Minor variance: Has there ever been a minor variance granted on the property? If you are long— time owner of the property, you will probably be aware of any other special permission granted for a variance to the zoning by-law. If you are a new owner, the seller will probably have made you aware of this.
If yes: If there is a current application for severance or subdivision on the property, please indicate the file number. (Staff can help provide this information)
Application for consent: Is there currently an application for consent (severance) for the property?
Drainage: Are there specific ditches that have been constructed to deal with drainage; is there natural drainage, etc.?
Septic: in most cases the answer will be private sewage system, but there may be some privies.

Subject:
Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2024-0087, Adrain, 11 Doc’s Point Lane, Bedford District
Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of the subject application for zoning relief for a detached garage, subject to conditions, as this application meets the four tests of a minor variance outlined in section 45(1) of the Planning Act. Background Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: Limited Service Residential (RLS) Proposal The applicant proposes to construct a 90.5 square metre detached garage, with a second floor storage area. The garage would be setback 8m from the front lot line and would have a lot coverage value of 6%. The variances are being requested to accommodate the proposed structure on the property. Zoning Relief Requested Section 5.24.1 – To permit a detached accessory building to have a lot coverage value of 6%, whereas the Zoning By-law permits a maximum lot coverage value of 5% for all detached accessory buildings and structures. Section 9.3.2 – To permit a detached accessory building to have a front yard setback of 8 metres, whereas the Zoning By-law requires a minimum 20 metres setback from the front lot line. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act.

Property Description The subject property is a small parcel of land (~0.4 Ac) with approximately 43 metres of frontage on Doc’s Point Lane. Existing development consists of a seasonal dwelling with attached front porch and rear deck and detached storage structure. A hydro line cuts through the subject property, extending along the western and southern boundary of the seasonal dwelling, forming an “L” shape. The area of the driveway, seasonal dwelling and hydro line are cleared of trees and vegetation. The remainder of the property, particularly along the existing lot lines, is well vegetated and features many mature trees. The area to the west of the seasonal dwelling is slightly elevated from the remainder of the property. The subject property exists in an area characterized by both limited service residential waterfront and non-waterfront uses. Department and Agency Comments Rideau Valley Conservation did not provide comments for this application as the proposed detached garage is not located in close proximity to Bob’s Lake. Building Services and Public Services did not provide comments for this application due to the nature of the proposal. Specifically, the proposed garage would not encroach within the area of the existing septic system and the subject property is located on a private lane. Public Comments No public comments were received at the time of preparing this report. Planning Analysis The proposal needs to be assessed against the four tests of a minor variance outlined in Section 45(1) of the Planning Act. It is the opinion of Planning staff that the proposal meets the four tests as explained below. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The variance would facilitate the construction of a detached garage on lands designated Rural on Schedule A of the Township Official Plan. The type and amount of development on rural lands must maintain the rural character, natural heritage, and cultural landscape of the Township. The proposed detached garage is accessory to the permitted residential use of the subject property. It is the opinion of Township Planning Staff that the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan, specifically the policies related to rural residential development. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? An accessory structure is a permitted use within the RLS zone. The proposed detached garage complies with all requirements of the Zoning By-law except maximum lot coverage for a detached accessory building and minimum setback from the front lot line. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 175 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0087
Section 5.24.1 establishes a maximum lot coverage value of 5% for all detached accessory structures, whereas the proposed garage would have lot coverage value of 6%. The maximum lot coverage value is intended to control the scale and density of development and avoid an overdeveloped appearance. The proposed garage is large relative to the size of the subject property. However, the proposed garage would facilitate the removal of an existing storage structure and the addition of a second floor storage area. Therefore, there would be no need for additional storage building on the subject property. Additionally, this scale of development would not conflict with the existing patterns of development in the neighbourhood. For example, several surrounding properties with similar lot areas are developed with cottages near the shoreline with similar sized detached garages adjacent to the travelled laneway. The subject property differentiates from these properties, as it does not contain waterfrontage. The Zoning By-law permits the principal structure to have a larger lot coverage value in the RLS Zone (10%) compared to the RLSW Zone (5%). The Zoning By-law also permits an additional 5% lot coverage for detached accessory structures in all zones. Therefore, it is the intent of the Zoning By-law to permit all buildings and structures on a property zoned RLS to have a maximum lot coverage value of 15%. The existing dwelling with all attached structures has a lot coverage value of approximately 8%. With the additional lot coverage provided by the detached garage (6%), there would be a total lot coverage value of 14%. Therefore, the larger garage can be permitted while still maintaining the general intent of the RLS Zone. Section 9.3.2 requires all structures to be setback a minimum of 20m from the front lot line of a property. The purpose of this setback is intended to control development adjacent to private laneways and avoid an overdeveloped appearance in rural areas. The proposed detached garage would have an 8 metre setback from the front lot line. Due to the location of the existing driveway, to the west of the proposed location, the garage would be accessed from the side, as opposed to directly from the laneway. The subject property features physical constraints which would limit the ability to build a detached garage in a compliant location. The proposed location is likely the only feasible location on the subject property where the garage could be built. This is due to the locations of the existing dwelling, sewage system and hydro line, combined with the property’s narrow width. There is existing mature tree and vegetation growth along the frontage on the subject property. Setback 8m from the front lot line, there would be an opportunity to maintain some of the existing tree coverage to visually screen the garage from Doc’s Point Lane. It is the opinion of planning staff that the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the requested variance desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land, building or structure in question? The requested variances are desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land. The increase in lot coverage is modest and would not impact the functionality of the property or impact the surrounding area. The location of the proposed garage is likely the only feasible location on the subject property and would connect directly to the existing driveway from Doc’s Point Lane. When considering the 8m setback and location of the driveway relative to the garage, there would be enough space for a vehicle to safely stop of park in the area between the garage and the lane. Finally, existing tree coverage along the frontage and www.southfrontenac.net Page 176 of 224 South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0087
eastern side lot line should mitigate any visual impacts associated with the size and location of the proposed garage. Is the variance minor? The requested variances are minor as they maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. The requested variances are also desirable for the appropriate development of the land. It is anticipated that there will be no negative impacts on surrounding properties or the private lane as a result of the proposed garage. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Statutory Public Hearing was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 10 days in advance of the Public Hearing. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and, pending comments received, approve minor variance application PL-ZNA-2024-0087 for 11 Doc’s Point Lane, subject to the following conditions.
- The minor variance is for a 90.5 square metre detached garage. The detached garage is permitted to have a maximum lot coverage value of 6%, and to establish a minimum 8 metre front yard setback. The location of the detached garage should be consistent with the sketch submitted by the applicant.
- A building permit is required for ALL proposed demolition and construction on the property. There shall be no additional development on the property without the approval from the Township of South Frontenac.
- Minor variance PL-ZNA-2024-0087 is applicable only to Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 and not to any subsequent zoning by-laws. Report Prepared By: Noah Perron, Planner Report Reviewed By: Christine Woods, RPP, MCIP, Manager of Planning

July 20, 2024 RE 4652 North Shore Road – Committee of Adjustment
4652 North Shore Road is a 3.17 acre property on the east basin of Loughborough Lake. The property has approximately 795’ of shoreline on the lake. Currently, there are several buildings on the property, most of which are in disrepair. There is a cottage with deck, a boathouse, a bunkie, 2 sheds and a garage. All of these buildings (minus the garage) are built within the 30 meter water setback and are therefore non-conforming to the current by-law. Our plan is to remove all of the existing buildings and to construct a new main dwelling, a bunkie and a cabana. We are proposing to construct the main dwelling further back on the property so that it mostly conforms with the water setback. We will be asking for a variance from the ‘high water mark setback’ for a small part of the dwelling – a screened porch which protrudes from the building. We would also like to construct a bunkie and a cabana in the same location as the existing cottage. The combined area of these two buildings will be less than the footprint of the existing cottage, and they will be 1 story in height (as opposed to 1.5). These buildings will also require a variance for ‘high water mark setback’, as well as for ‘accessory building in a front yard’ and ‘setback from top of bank’. The extreme topography of this property dictated a lot of our design decisions. Even though it is a large property, there are not many locations on which to build. The full eastern half of the property is essentially inaccessible, so it made sense to keep the construction to the areas we are proposing. All told, we will be eliminating 1694 square feet of non-conforming structure and replacing this with two small buildings – each at 272 square feet. Thank you for your consideration of this proposal.

Sent by E-mail Ms. Christine Woods, Senior Planner Township of South Frontenac P.O. Box 100 Sydenham, Ontario K0H 2T0 Dear Ms. Woods: Re:
Application for Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2024-0089 (Preston & Clayton) Pt Lot 20, Concession 5; 4652 North Shore Road Loughborough District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Loughborough Lake
Cataraqui Conservation staff have reviewed the above-noted application for minor variance and provide the following comments for the Committee of Adjustment. Proposal The proposal involves the demolition of all the existing buildings on the subject property, and the construction of a new residential dwelling, a sleeping cabin, and a cabana. Permission is requested to reduce the required setback from the highwater mark from 30 metres, as required by Section 5.8.2.a) of the South Frontenac Zoning By-law, to 25.4 metres to permit the construction of the dwelling, 11.4 metres to permit the construction of the cabin, and 12.6 metres to permit the construction of the cabana. Permission is also requested to reduce the setback from the top of bank from 15 metres, as required by Section 5.8.2.b) of the South Frontenac Zoning By-law, to 6 metres, to permit the sleeping cabin and cabana. Site Description The property is located on the north shore of the east basin of Loughborough Lake. The topography of the property can be described as having a high and steep bedrock embankment, that rises quickly from the shoreline, levels out around the area where the existing buildings are located, and rises again up towards North Shore Road. Staff visited the site on July 23, 2024. The property is designated ‘Rural’ in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Waterfront Residential’ (RW) in the implementing Zoning By-law. Discussion Cataraqui Conservation’s scope of review for this proposal includes the avoidance of natural hazards (e.g. flooding and erosion) associated with the shoreline of Loughborough Lake. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 41/24 Flooding: The maximum recorded water level for Loughborough Lake is 125.1 metres geodetic. For Loughborough Lake, the maximum recorded water level is used in lieu of an engineered flood plain. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 41/24 (see description below) requires that all development be set back a minimum of 6 metres from
Page 199 of 224
the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Based on topographic mapping and the site plan submitted with the application, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will be located outside of the flooding hazard and applicable setback. Erosion: Section 5.8.2.b) of the South Frontenac Zoning By-law requires that all buildings and structures be set back at least 15 metres horizontal from the top of bank of any embankment, the slope of which is greater than 30% from horizontal. Due to the bedrock embankment, and in accordance with provincial technical standards, the slope is considered stable, and Cataraqui Conservation defines the extent of potential erosion hazards to be 6 metres from the stable top of bank, to provide an allowance for access between new buildings and the shoreline. Based on the site plan submitted with the application and observations taken on site, staff are satisfied that the proposed dwelling, sleeping cabin, and cabana will be located outside of the erosion hazard limit. Staff have no concerns from a natural hazards perspective. If approved, staff recommend that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. We also recommend the maintenance and enhancement of a healthy buffer of native vegetation between all buildings/structures and the water, to help stabilize soils into the long-term. Recommendation In summary, staff have no objection to the approval of application PL-ZNA-2024-0089 based on our review of natural hazard and regulatory policies. We also recommend implementation of the above-noted best practice measures (in bold text) and advise the applicant that a CRCA permit will be required at the building permit stage. Ontario Regulation 41/24 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 41/24: Prohibited Activities, Exemptions and Permits (formerly O. Reg. 148/06), which is administered by the CRCA. The purpose of the regulation is to ensure that proposed changes (e.g. development and site alteration) to a property are not affected by natural hazards, such as flooding and erosion, and that the changes do not put other properties at greater risk from these hazards. For this property, any development (buildings and structures) and site alteration (excavation, grading, placement of fill) within 15 metres of the floodplain and within 15 metres of the top of bank is subject to O. Reg. 41/24. Therefore, a CRCA permit will be required for the development. The landowner(s) should contact CRCA’s office at the building permit stage for more information about permitting requirements under O. Reg. 41/24. Please inform this office of any decision made by the Committee with regard to this application. If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned at 613-546-4228 ext. 239, or by email at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly,

Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2024-0089, Preston and Clayton, 4652 North Shore Rd, Storrington District
Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of the subject application for zoning relief for a single detached dwelling, sleeping cabin, and accessory building, subject to conditions, as this application meets the four tests of a minor variance outlined in section 45(1) of the Planning Act. Background Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: Waterfront Residential (RW) Proposal The owners intend to demolish all the existing buildings on the property, and to build a house with attached garage, a sleeping cabin and a cabana. The two-storey house would have a 3,256 square foot footprint. The house would be setback 30m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake, with the exception of a porch that would be setback 25.4m. The 272 square foot sleeping cabin would be 11.4m from the lake and 6m from the top of bank. The 272 square foot cabana would be 12.6m from the lake and 6m from the top of bank. The sleeping cabin and cabana would be in the footprint of the old cottage. Two separate buildings are proposed because the footprint of the sleeping cabin is limited by the Zoning By-law definition for sleeping cabin. The proposed sewage system would be setback at least 30m from the lake. The main components of the system would be setback at least 30m from a watercourse, however, the mantle may be closer to the watercourse.

Page 201 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0089
Variances are being requested to allow the three buildings to be setback less than 30m from the highwater mark of the lake, and to allow the sleeping cabin and cabana to be less than 15m from the top of bank. Zoning Relief Requested Section 5.8.2(a) and 8.3.3 – to permit a single detached dwelling, sleeping cabin and accessory building (cabana) to be setback a minimum of 25.4m, 11.4m and 12.6m respectively from the highwater mark of a waterbody, whereas a minimum 30 metre setback is required for all buildings and structures. Section 5.8.2(b) – to permit a sleeping cabin and accessory building (cabana) to be setback a minimum of 6m from the top of bank of the shoreline, whereas a minimum 15m setback is required for all buildings and structures. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act. Property Description The property is located on the north shore of the East Basin of Loughborough Lake, and is accessed off North Shore Road. It is a triangular shape, 3 acres in area and with about 220 metres frontage on the lake. Frontage on the road is limited to the driveway entrance. It is bordered to the west by a waterfront residential property and to the north by an unopened road allowance. The entire property is forested. The east half of the property is not accessible due to a deep valley and the unopened road allowance. The valley contains an intermittent watercourse. The topography on the west half of the property is stepped. There are three plateaus each separated by slopes downward from the road to the lake. There is an old garage on the top plateau near the road. The existing cottage, sleeping cabin and storage shed are located on the lower plateau near the lake. There is reportedly a sewage holding tank on the property. Department and Agency Comments The owner consulted with Cataraqui Conservation before submitting the application, in order to determine their regulatory requirements. Cataraqui Conservation requires a minimum 6m setback from the top of bank. The proposed sleeping cabin and cabana would meet this requirement. Formal comments will be received prior to the public hearing. Public Comments No comments were received at the time this report was written.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0089
Planning Analysis The proposal needs to be assessed against the four tests of a minor variance outlined in Section 45(1) of the Planning Act. It is the opinion of Planning staff that the proposal meets the four tests as explained below. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan related to waterfront residential development, and development adjacent to environmentally sensitive areas. The variances would facilitate construction of a dwelling and related sewage system, as well as permitted accessory buildings, on lands that are designated Rural in the Official Plan on Schedule A. The proposed dwelling would be located on the middle plateau. It would be pushed close to the upper slope, so that it would comply with the minimum 30m setback from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake, with the exception of a porch that would be setback 25.4m. The setback would be maximized as intended by section 5.2.7(b) of the Official Plan. The associated sewage system would be setback at least 30m from the lake from the watercourse that is in deep valley to the east. This represents an improvement over the existing reported holding tank that is close to the lake. All the existing buildings on the property would be demolished. The proposed sleeping cabin and cabana would be located within the footprint of the existing cottage, and outside the shoreline erosion hazard. The combined area of these two buildings would be less than that of the existing cottage. Staff consider this a positive change on the property. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The proposed single detached dwelling, sleeping cabin and cabana (accessory building) are permitted uses in the RW zone. The dwelling was designed to fit on the middle plateau between two slopes so that it could maximize the setback from the highwater mark. It also takes advantage of the plateau and slope to the east for a new sewage system that would be at least 30m from the lake and the watercourse, and which could be gravity fed. The proposed cabin and cabana would maintain or exceed the setback of the existing cottage from the highwater mark. The buildings would be setback at least 6m from the top of bank, as required by Cataraqui Conservation, and meeting the intent of the Zoning Bylaw for new development to avoid natural hazards. Lot coverage associated with the dwelling would be 2.4%, which is less than the 5% permitted in the RW zone. The total lot coverage of all buildings would be 2.8%. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 203 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0089
The proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the requested variance desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land, building or structure in question? The requested variances are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The design and location of the proposed dwelling on the property ensures that the required setback from the highwater mark would be maximized. All the existing buildings (including a boathouse) within 30m of the highwater mark will be demolished and replaced with two smaller accessory buildings, resulting in a positive change on the property. If the sleeping cabin includes a washroom, the sewage would be pumped to the new sewage system that would be at least 30m from the lake. Is the variance minor? The requested variances are minor as they maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law and are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The existing natural vegetation on the property, and particularly along the shoreline, should be maintained to help mitigate visual impacts when viewed from the lake. The buildings will be located in appropriate areas where there are no impacts anticipated on the subject or abutting properties. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Statutory Public Hearing was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 10 days in advance of the Public Hearing. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and, pending comments received, approve minor variance application PL-ZNA-2024-0089 for 4652 North Shore Road, subject to the following conditions.
- The minor variance is for a single detached dwelling, a sleeping cabin and a cabana (accessory building). The porch on the dwelling is permitted to establish a minimum 25.4m front yard and setback from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The sleeping cabin and cabana are permitted to be setback 11.4m and 12.6m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake, respectively. The sleeping cabin and cabana are also permitted to be setback a minimum of 6m from the top of bank. The location and size of the buildings must be consistent with the submitted application and site plan.

Page 204 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0089
- The Owner is required to enter into a Development Agreement to be registered on the title of the property to the satisfaction of the Township to address the following matters and environmental standards of the Township: a. Appropriate erosion control measures (e.g. silt fence, straw bales) must be used during construction and until the site is stable and revegetated. b. Roof runoff will be directed away from Loughborough Lake and/or discharged to natural or constructed leaching pits/areas to maximize infiltration or onto coarse rock rubble splash pads to reduce the velocity of runoff before it enters the lake. c. A natural vegetated buffer must be maintained in its natural state within 30 metres of Loughborough Lake, except in the immediate area of the building envelopes.
- A building permit is required for ALL proposed demolition and construction on the property. There shall be no additional development on the property without the approval from the Township of South Frontenac.
- Minor variance PL-ZNA-2024-0089 is applicable only to Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 and not to any subsequent zoning by-laws. Report Prepared By: Christine Woods, RPP, MCIP, Manager of Planning

Sent by E-mail Ms. Christine Woods, Senior Planner Township of South Frontenac P.O. Box 100 Sydenham, Ontario K0H 2T0 Dear Ms. Woods: Re:
Application for Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2024-0095 (Donaldson)(Spellman) Pt Lot 23, Concession 6; Unit 2, Johnston Point Condominium Hinterland Lane, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Loughborough Lake and Loughborough Lake Provincially Significant Wetland Complex
Cataraqui Conservation staff have reviewed the above-noted application for minor variance and provide the following comments for the Committee of Adjustment. Proposal The proposal involves the construction of a single detached dwelling and septic system on Unit 2 of the Johnston Point Vacant Land Condominium. The RLSW-104 zone requires the house to be set back a minimum of 40 metres from the highwater mark or floodline of Loughborough Lake. A small bay comes into the property along the southern shoreline, causing the highwater mark and floodline to extend inland significantly. Relief from the zoning by-law is requested to allow the dwelling to be located 9.5 metres from the floodline of Loughborough Lake. The plot plan also suggests that the house will encroach into the 40 metre setback, on the northern side of the house, by 0.8 metres. Site Description The property is located on the southern end of the Johnston Point plan of condominium development on the west side of the peninsula. The topography can be characterized as being relatively flat, gradually rising towards the interior of the property. Staff visited the site on July 23, 2024, and observed some preliminary grading work has already occurred in the area of the proposed dwelling. There are mature trees and vegetation growth along the riparian areas, and wetland habitat in the bay connected to the lake. Discussion Cataraqui Conservation’s scope of review for this proposal includes the avoidance of natural hazards (e.g. flooding and erosion) associated with the shoreline of Loughborough Lake and the protection of the provincially significant wetland. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 41/24 Flooding: The maximum recorded water level for Loughborough Lake is 125.1 metres geodetic. For Loughborough Lake, the maximum recorded water level is used in lieu of an engineered
Page 215 of 224
flood plain. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 41/24 (see description below) requires that all development be set back a minimum of 6 metres from the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Based on the site plan submitted with the application, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will be located outside of the flooding hazard and applicable setback. Erosion: Along the bay area, Cataraqui Conservation, in accordance with provincial technical standards, defines the extent of potential erosion hazards to include an allowance for toe erosion (0 m), a stable slope allowance of 3:1 for till shorelines, plus an erosion access allowance of 6 metres. Topographic mapping and observations taken on site suggest that the shoreline embankment is roughly 1 metre high in this location, therefore staff have determined the total erosion hazard to be 9 metres measured inland from the stable toe of slope. Based on the site plan submitted with the application, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will be located outside of the erosion hazard limit. Loughborough Lake Provincially Significant Wetland Complex: The northern shoreline on this property contains portions of the Loughborough Lake Provincially Significant Wetland Complex. CRCA’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 41/24 require new development and site alteration to be set back a minimum of 30 metres from the limit of a provincially significant wetland, to protect the hydrologic function of wetland. Based on the site plan submitted with the application, the proposed dwelling will be located outside the minimum 30 metre setback from the PSW. Staff do not anticipate any negative impacts to the hydrologic function of the wetland on the lot as a result of the proposal. Staff have no concerns from a natural hazards / regulatory perspective. If approved, staff recommend that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. We also recommend that the 9.5 metre buffer between the dwelling and the bay should be maintained as a healthy riparian area of native vegetation. Site alteration (i.e. excavation, grading, placement of fill) will be required to meet the applicable regulatory setbacks noted above, so any fill currently within this setback will need to be removed, and the buffer remediated. Recommendation In summary, staff have no objection to the approval of application PL-ZNA-2024-0095 based on our review of natural hazard and regulatory policies. We also recommend implementation of the above-noted best practice measures (in bold text) and advise the applicant that a CRCA permit will be required at the building permit stage. Ontario Regulation 41/24 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 41/24: Prohibited Activities, Exemptions and Permits (formerly O. Reg. 148/06), which is administered by the CRCA. The purpose of the regulation is to ensure that proposed changes (e.g. development and site alteration) to a property are not affected by natural hazards, such as flooding and erosion, and that the changes do not put other properties at greater risk from these hazards. For this property, any development (buildings and structures) and site alteration (excavation, grading, placement of fill) within 15 metres of the floodplain, within 18 metres of the toe of slope, and within 30 metres of the provincially significant wetland is subject to O. Reg. 41/24. Therefore, a CRCA permit will be required for the development. The landowner(s)
Page 2 of 3

should contact CRCA’s office at the building permit stage for more information about permitting requirements under O. Reg. 41/24. Please inform this office of any decision made by the Committee with regard to this application. If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned at 613-546-4228 ext. 239, or by email at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly,
Janelle Treash, RPP, MCIP Resource Planner

Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2024-0095, Donaldson (Spellman), Hinterland Lane, Unit 2, Loughborough District
Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of the subject application for zoning relief for a single detached dwelling, subject to conditions, as this application meets the four tests of a minor variance outlined in section 45(1) of the Planning Act. Background The subject lands are Unit 2 in the Johnston Point Vacant Land Condominium. This condominium is highly regulated through an Environmental Benefit Permit under the Endangered Species Act, a condominium agreement and a master site plan agreement. The master site plan agreement requires individual agreement for each unit. These tools specify the maximum amount of construction, site alteration and vegetation clearing that is permitted on each unit, and where it can occur on each unit. The approved master site plan agreement includes a conceptual site plan for Unit 2 (attached). The proposed development is consistent with the conceptual plan. However, the conceptual plan failed to recognize that there is a small bay and floodplain that comes onto the property. This bay and floodplain makes it impossible for the dwelling to achieve the minimum 40m setback from the highwater mark or floodline required on Unit 2 without zoning relief. Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: Special Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW-104) Proposal The owners propose to construct a house and sewage system on Unit 2 of the Johnston Point Vacant Land Condominium. The RLSW-104 zone requires the house to be setback a minimum of 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of Loughborough Lake. It was determined during the site plan review process that a small bay comes into the property making it impossible to achieve this setback. While the house would be 40m from the www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 218 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0095
highwater mark of the lake along most of the shoreline, it would be 9.5m from the floodline in the small bay. The plot plan suggests that points of the house may also intrude into the setback by 0.1m to 0.8m. A minor variance is being requested to allow the house to be setback less than 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of the lake. Zoning Relief Requested Section 10, RLSW-104 – to permit a single detached dwelling to be setback a minimum of 39.2m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake and 9.5m from the floodline, whereas the Zoning By-law requires buildings to be setback a minimum 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of a waterbody. Related Applications The lands are subject to Site Plan Control Application PL-SPR-2024-0081. Property Description The property is located on the north shore of the East Basin of Loughborough Lake. It is at the end of Hinterland Lane, which is off North Shore Road. The property is on a peninsula, so it has a long shoreline. There is a small bay that comes into the south end of the property. The entire property is forested, with the exception of the driveway and the area that has been cleared and prepared for development. Department and Agency Comments The owner consulted with Cataraqui Conservation before submitting the application, in order to determine their regulatory requirements. Cataraqui Conservation requires a minimum 6m setback from the floodline. The proposed house would exceed this requirement. Formal comments will be received prior to the public hearing. Public Comments No comments were received at the time this report was written. Planning Analysis The proposal needs to be assessed against the four tests of a minor variance outlined in Section 45(1) of the Planning Act. It is the opinion of Planning staff that the proposal meets the four tests as explained below. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan? The subject lands are designated ‘Rural’ in the Official Plan on Schedule A. The type and amount of development on ‘Rural’ lands must maintain the rural character, natural heritage, and cultural landscape in the Township. The proposed dwelling and related sewage system are a permitted use on the property. www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 219 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0095
Section 5.2.7(b) of the Official Plan requires buildings and structures to be setback a minimum of 30m from the highwater mark of lakes and rivers. Vegetation within this area should be disturbed as little as possible and the soil mantle is also not to be altered. The site-specific zone for Unit 2 requires a minimum 40m setback for buildings and a 50m setback for sewage systems. The purpose of these measures is to minimize environmental and visual lake impacts by reducing phosphorus inputs, preventing erosion and by maintaining a natural appearance of shorelines. Also, Section 5.7.7(ii)(e) requires limited service residential development to be designed to preserve as much as possible a site’s physical attributes, such as tree coverage, varying topography, scenic views, etc. for the benefit of future residents. There is a condominium agreement and master site plan agreement registered on the title of the property that address these requirements and in addition to other protections. It is the opinion of Township staff that the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan, specifically the policies on limited service residential development, and development within environmentally sensitive areas. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The proposed single detached dwelling is a permitted use in the RLSW-104 zone. This zone requires buildings to be setback a minimum of 40m from the highwater mark or floodline of a waterbody, and septic systems to be setback a minimum of 50m from the highwater mark or floodline of a waterbody. Where a zone says “highwater mark or floodline”, the more restrictive of the two is applied. This provision did not account for the small bay and floodplain on Unit 2, which Frontenac Maps suggests encroaches onto the property at least 30m. The dwelling was designed and located to achieve the minimum 40m setback from the highwater mark when measured from the main shoreline. An Ontario Land Surveyor verified the staked building location as required by the master site plan agreement. They determined that one corner of the dwelling, one corner of the attached deck, and one corner of the garage would encroach on the required setback by +/- 0.1m. This is within an acceptable margin of error. They also determined that a corner of the porch would encroach +/- 0.8m. It is the opinion of staff that a 0.8m variance for the corner of the porch would maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. The Ontario Land Surveyor located the 125.1m elevation which corresponds with the floodline for Loughborough Lake, and determined that the dwelling would be setback 9.5m from the floodline. Cataraqui Conservation indicated that this setback would be sufficient to maintain access around the building in the event of flooding. It is the opinion of staff that the requested variance from the floodline would maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law. Is the requested variance desirable for the appropriate development or use of the land, building or structure in question?
www.southfrontenac.net South Frontenac is a welcoming and thriving rural community.
Page 220 of 224
Township of South Frontenac Staff Report PL-ZNA-2024-0095
The requested variances are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The proposed development is consistent with the conceptual plan of the approved master site plan agreement. The development will be subject to individual site plan control, which would require re-establishment and maintenance of a vegetated buffer between the dwelling and the floodline, and consideration for managing roof runoff. Is the variance minor? The requested variances are minor as they maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law and are desirable for the appropriate development of the land. It is anticipated that there will be no negative impacts as a result of the proposed development. Notice/Consultation Notice of the Statutory Public Hearing was given pursuant to the requirements of the Planning Act, at least 10 days in advance of the Public Hearing. This included notice given: • • •
by mail to every owner of land within 60 metres of the subject lands by posting notice signs on the subject lands by e-mail to prescribed persons and public bodies
Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and, pending comments received, approve minor variance application PL-ZNA-2024-0095 for Unit 2 in Johnston Point Vacant Land Condominium, subject to the following conditions.
- The minor variance is for a single detached dwelling. The porch on northeast corner of the dwelling is permitted to be setback a minimum of 39.2m from the highwater mark of Loughborough Lake. The dwelling is permitted to be setback a minimum of 9.5m from the floodline around the small bay. The location and size of the building must be consistent with the submitted application and site plan.
- A building permit is required for ALL proposed demolition and construction on the property. There shall be no additional development on the property without the approval from the Township of South Frontenac.
- Minor variance PL-ZNA-2024-0095 is applicable only to Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 and not to any subsequent zoning by-laws.
