Minutes of Committee Of Adjustment July, 13, 2023 Chair Ruttan inquired as to whether the Applicant, Agent or members of the public wished to speak to the application. Michael Johnston, the Applicant, spoke to the applications. Mr. Johnston stated that when he purchased the house in 2019, the footings for the new deck were already constructed and he assumed that the proper permissions were already in place. He acknowledged his error in expanding the deck without any approvals. Mr. Johnston spoke to the size of the lot and the difficulty in complying with current By-laws on a constrained property, and spoke to having received supporting feedback regarding the deck from his neighbours on Bobs Lake. Mr. Johnston spoke to the deck being constructed behind an already existing shorewall that was constructed in the 1970s, and as such it is already not a natural shoreline. He opined that the deck does not hinder the appearance of the shoreline. Mr. Johnston made reference to section 5.9.1 of the Zoning By-Law and spoke to there already being a deck on the dwelling when he purchased it and as such the use of the is simply being continued. He spoke to the importance of safe exit from the dwelling. Mr. Johnston expressed that he was not sure if, should the application be denied, he would need to remove the entire structure, or remove it all except for the 75 square foot deck that existed when he purchased the cottage. Chair Ruttan inquired (2nd and 3rd time) as to whether there were any further comments from the applicant, the agent or the public. None heard. Chair Ruttan asked if any Committee Members would like to comment on the application. Committee Member Pegrum commented that he visited the property and it was clear that the deck is not in compliance with the Ontario Building Code, and is concern that approving the application would thereby be approving a structure that is not in compliance with the OBC and as such he opined that it should not be an option. Committee Member Revill asked Ms. Woods about one of the recommended conditions regarding the detached garage, being that the applicant would not be able to alter or Park on the Township owned Road Allowance. Ms. Woods acknowledged that the cottage property has been accessed over the private lane and the Township road allowance for as long as the property has been there, however, this does not mean that the property owner has free reign over the road allowance. It is Township property, not their property. As such it needs to be recognized that the property owner wishes to use the road allowance for any purpose other than just accessing their property, they would need to enter into a License Agreement. With respect to the deck, Committee Member Revill stated that because it has been altered, no Staff or Committee members had the benefit of knowing what existed before in an effort to substantiate what the applicant is claiming. He spoke to the difficulty in supporting the application given the sensitive location and proximity to the water. Chair Ruttan spoke to the concern that adding the detached garage would increase the permitted lot coverage.

Page 87 of 250

Minutes of Committee Of Adjustment July, 13, 2023 Ms. Woods advised that there is 5 percent allowed for the dwelling and an additional 5 percent allowable for accessory structures. The cottage already exceeds the lot coverage maximum by today’s standard which is very typical of older dwellings on small waterfront lots that have existed for decades. The deck would increase the lot coverage by 2.5 percent but, the dwelling is legal non-conforming, so consideration needs to be given as to what is appropriate as an increase. The proposed garage would not exceed the allowable lot coverage for accessory structures. Committee Member Roberts wanted it to be on record that he was not able to participate or vote on this application as he was not present at the June 08, 2023 Committee of Adjustment meeting at which this application was originally presented.

To: Committee of Adjustment Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: August 10, 2023 Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) Subject: PL-ZNA-2023-0046, Sheridan, 144 Timmerman Road, Bedford District

Recommendation It is recommended that the Committee of Adjustment receive comments from the public and that the Committee defer making a decision on revised application PL-ZNA-2023-0046 until such time that the applicant has an Ontario Land Surveyor confirm the location of the property’s lot lines and submits an acceptable sketch that accurately shows the size and location of the proposed building.

Background Minor Variance application PL-ZNA-2023-0046 was previously presented to the Committee of Adjustment on June 8, 2023. Prior to the presentation, written comments were received from the abutting property owner, citing concerns related to the location of the proposed structure. Based on the comments received, Committee members deferred their decision to provide an opportunity for the applicant to revise their proposal.

Property Description The subject property is an undersized lot of record measuring at 0.84Ha in area with frontage on Timmerman Road and Sand Lake. Access to the property is via a driveway extending from Timmerman Road. The property contains a 140.1sqm (1508sqft) two-storey single detached dwelling and a detached accessory structure (“bunkie house”). The subject property is primarily covered by mature trees. Finally, the property is located within an area characterized by similar waterfront residential developments.

Proposal The applicant is proposing to construct a new 102.9sqm (1108sqft) detached garage/quilt room on the subject property. The proposed accessory structure is to be setback 6.1m (20ft) from the front lot line. As such, the applicants are requesting relief from Zoning By-law 2003-

Page 108 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0046, Sheridan, 144 Timmerman Road, Bedford District

75, in order to permit the proposed accessory structure to be setback less than 20m from the front lot line.

Preliminary Discussion While conducting a site visit to the subject property, Planning Staff noticed several inconsistencies with the location of the proposed accessory structure. The proposed setbacks, as depicted in the submitted sketch, would result in the accessory structure encroaching on the front lot line of the property. As such, Township Planning Staff are recommending the application be deferred. This would provide the applicant additional time to have the location of the lot lines confirmed by an Ontario Land Surveyor, and to submit an acceptable sketch that accurately shows the size and location of the proposed building.

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 Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2023-0062 (Roach) Pt Lot 32, Concession 7; 53 Linea Drive Storrington District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Collins Creek 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 on the subject property. The variance is requested to: •

Reduce the required setback from the front yard from 20 metres, as required by Section 12.5 of the South Frontenac Zoning By-law, to 10 metres to permit the construction of the new dwelling.

Site Description The subject property is located within the eastern boundary of the previously approved Lyons Landing subdivision located along Holmes Road and Lakefield Drive in South Frontenac Township. The topography of the subject lands can be characterized as a low-lying area along the eastern portion that rises up a steep embankment and levels out again towards Linea Drive, where the development is proposed. With the exception of a cleared area near the road, the majority of the property is covered in mature deciduous tree growth. A portion of the Collins Creek provincially significant wetland complex is located to the east of the subject lots. The property is currently designated as ‘Rural’ and in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Special Residential’ (R-10) in the Zoning By-law for South Frontenac Township.

Page 1 of 3

Page 129 of 250

Discussion Cataraqui Conservation’s scope of review for this proposal includes the protection of the hydrologic function of Collins Creek Provincially Significant Wetland. Collins Creek Provincially Significant Wetland / Ontario Regulation 148/06 As noted, the subject lands are located adjacent to Collins Creek Provincially Significant Wetland Complex. This wetland is designated Provincially Significant in the Township’s Official Plan and zoned ‘Environmental Protection’ in the implementing Zoning By-Law. The Official Plan for South Frontenac contains provisions that protect the hydrologic and ecologic functions of wetlands. Cataraqui Conservation, under O. Reg. 148/06, regulates development and site alteration within 120 metres from the limit of the Collins Creek PSW, to protect the hydrologic function of the PSW. Our policies and guidelines prohibit new development within 30 metres from the limit of the PSW and can only permit new development within 30 – 120 metres from the PSW if the interference on the hydrologic function of the wetland has been deemed to be acceptable by Cataraqui Conservation. Based on the site plan submitted with the application, the proposed development will be located roughly 80 metres from the limit of the PSW. In this instance, staff are satisfied that the proposed development will not interfere with the hydrologic function of the PSW. Staff are also satisfied that the proposed reduction to the front yard setback will encourage a larger setback between future development and the wetland. Staff have no concerns from a regulatory perspective. If approved, staff recommend that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. Staff also note that a CRCA permit will be required for the development at the building permit stage. Recommendation In summary, staff have no objection to the approval of application PL-ZNA-2023-0062 based on our consideration for Ontario Regulation 148/06. We also recommend implementation of the above-noted environmental mitigation measures (in bold text) and advise the applicant that a CRCA permit will be required for the proposed development under O. Reg. 148/06. Ontario Regulation 148/06 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 148/06: Development, Interference with Wetlands, and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses, 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. Also, to ensure the protection of wetlands. For this property, any development (buildings and structures) and site alteration (excavation, grading, placement of fill) within 120 metres of the Collins Creek Provincially Significant is subject to O. Reg. 148/06. Therefore, a permit will be

Page 130 of 250

required from our office for the proposed development. The landowner(s) are advised to contact CRCA at the building permit stage for more information about permitting requirements under O. Reg. 148/06. 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 e-mail at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly, . Janelle Treash Resource Planner cc:

To: Committee of Adjustment Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: August 10, 2023 Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of the Planning Act) Subject: PL-ZNA-2023-0062, Stephen and Megan Roach, 1029-060-010-07660, Linea Drive, Storrington District

Summary The subject application seeks zoning relief to permit a single detached dwelling to establish a reduced front yard setback. This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of this application subject to conditions, as this application meets the four tests of a minor variance outlined in section 45(1) of Planning Act.

Background Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: R-10 Special Residential Zoning Relief Requested Section 12.5 – to permit a single detached dwelling to establish a minimum 10 metre front yard setback, whereas the R-10 zone requires a minimum 20 metre front yard setback. Related Applications The subject property is not subject to any other applications under the Planning Act.

Discussion/Analysis Property Description The 0.4 hectare (1 acre) property is located within the eastern portion of the Lyon’s Landing subdivision. The property fronts onto, and is accessed by, Linea Drive. The lot is currently vacant. The lands consist of a small relatively flat area directly adjacent to the road which www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 132 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0062, Stephen and Megan Roach, 1029-060-010-07660, Linea Drive, Storrington District

slopes down at a relatively steep angle as you move towards the rear of the property. The flat area near the road is largely cleared, but the rest of the property is generally forested. The property is located at least 45 metres from a provincially significant wetland, which is located to the north and east of the property. Summary of Proposal The Applicant is proposing to construct a 235 square metre single detached dwelling, including attached garage. The dwelling would be one storey with a walkout basement. The required sewage system would be located east of the dwelling at the top of the slope. An application for minor variance was received to permit the dwelling to establish a minimum 10 metre front yard setback. The variance is being requested so that the dwelling can be erected on the flat area at the top and front of the property rather than on the slope that extends to the rear of the property. Department and Agency Comments The application was reviewed by Building Services, who had no objections to the proposal from a sewage system perspective. The application was reviewed by Cataraqui Conservation, who had no concerns. However, they recommended that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. They also wanted to note that a permit would be required under O. Reg. 148/06 for the development at the building permit stage. Public Comments No comments were received from the public at the time of report finalization. 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.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0062, Stephen and Megan Roach, 1029-060-010-07660, Linea Drive, Storrington District

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 proposed single detached dwelling is associated with the permitted residential use of the property. The lot is located within 120 metres of the Provincially Significant Collins Creek Wetland Complex. An environmental impact assessment was not required for the proposed development of the lot, as impact would have been assessed before the plan of subdivision was approved. The proposed variance maintains the general intent and purpose 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 R-10 zone. The front yard setback is intended to allow for a sufficient distance between the dwelling and the road, both for safety and to account for possible future development. In this case the house fronts on a short dead-end road which is not favourably located for any future development. As a result, this road will almost certainly never need to be widened or support any large volume of traffic. A 10-metre front yard setback will not pose any real danger to the occupants or interrupt the general maintenance or operation of the roadway. A 10-metre front yard setback would be consistent with the requirements of the R-31 Zone which applies to the lots to the north of the subject property that are also located on the slope. The proposed variance maintains 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 variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land, as it would allow the dwelling to be founded mostly on the level section of the property. This would avoid the need to carry out extensive and environmentally disruptive landscaping, including tree clearing, filling, and lot grading, in the north of the property. By permitting the dwelling to be located closer to the front lot line, it would maximize its distance from the Provincially Significant Wetland located to the north and east of the property. Furthermore, a reduced setback for this property would be in keeping with the general character of the surrounding properties.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0062, Stephen and Megan Roach, 1029-060-010-07660, Linea Drive, Storrington District

Is the variance minor? The requested variance is minor as it maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. Additionally, although the dwelling would have a reduced front yard setback than required, at 10 metres, it would not have any noticeable impacts on adjacent properties as they are being developed with a similar front yard, nor would it have any impacts on public works.

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-2023-0062, subject to the following conditions.

  1. The minor variance is for a single detached dwelling. The dwelling is permitted to establish a minimum 10.0 metre front yard. All as per the submitted application and sketch.
  2. A building permit is required for ALL demolition and construction on the property. There shall be no additional development on the property without the approval from the Township of South Frontenac.
  3. Minor variance PL-ZNA-2023-0062 is applicable only to Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 and not to any subsequent zoning by-laws. Report Prepared By: Michael Kelly, Planning Student Reviewed By: Christine Woods, MCIP RPP, Senior Planner

CRCA File: MV/FRS/128/2023

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 Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2023-0063 (Duncan)(Seaway Design) Pt Lot 34, Concession 11; 421 Stafford Lane ARN: 10290700603600000000 Storrington District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Little Cranberry Lake (Rideau Canal)

The Rideau Waterway Development Review Team (RWDRT), made up of staff from Cataraqui Conservation (CRCA) and Parks Canada, have reviewed the above-noted application, and provide the following comments for the Committee of Adjustment’s consideration. Summary of Proposal The proposal involves the construction of a new single-detached dwelling on the subject property. The variance 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 24 metres to permit the construction of the new dwelling.

Site Description The property is located on the north shore of Little Cranberry Lake, which is part of the Rideau Canal. The topography of the site can be characterized as rising steadily from the shoreline up to a plateau of land located further to the north of the lot, then descending again towards a lowlying area where the Beacon Point Provincially Significant Wetland is located. There is currently a frame shed, frame bunkie, wooden deck, and 1 storey cottage located on the property between Stafford Lane and the shoreline of Little Cranberry Lake, which are proposed to be

Page 152 of 250

PL-ZNA-2023-0063 June 23, 2023 removed. In addition to the new proposed dwelling, there is also a detached garage proposed to the north of Stafford Lane. With the exception of the area immediately surrounding the existing development which is vegetated with a mix of grass and sparse tree cover, the majority of the lot is heavily vegetated with mature woodlands. The property is currently designated as ‘Rural’ in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) and ‘Environmental Protection’ (EP) in the Zoning By-law for South Frontenac Township. The EP zone appears to coincide with the location of the Beacon Point Provincially Significant Wetland. Discussion The main interests of the RWDRT with respect to this application are the avoidance of natural hazards associated with the shoreline and the protection of the cultural and natural heritage and scenic values of the Rideau Canal National Historic Site and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 148/06 Cataraqui Conservation, through our implementation of Ontario Regulation 148/06 and, in accordance with the natural hazards policies of the 2020 Provincial Policy Statement (PPS), directs development away from lands subject to natural hazards, such as flooding and erosion. Flooding: The maximum recorded water level for Little Cranberry Lake is 98.95 metres geodetic. For Little Cranberry Lake, the maximum recorded water level is used in lieu of an engineered flood plain. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 148/06 (see description below) require all development and site alteration to be set back a minimum of 6 metres from the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Based upon elevation mapping data and the site plan submitted with the application, the proposed development will be located outside of any area that may be subject to potential flood risk. Erosion: Cataraqui Conservation, in accordance with provincial technical standards, defines the erosion hazard limit associated with the shoreline of Little Cranberry Lake as the sum of an allowance for toe erosion (estimated to be 2 metres), a stable slope allowance of 1(h):1(v) for bedrock shorelines and a minimum erosion access allowance of 6 metres. For a 1 metre high slope, the erosion hazard would therefore extend approximately 9 metres inland from the toe of slope (1 + 2 + 6). Staff have concluded that the proposed development will be located outside the extent of the erosion hazard limit. If approved, staff recommend that proper sediment and erosion controls be incorporated into construction plans. Heritage Values of the Rideau Canal The subject property is located on Little Cranberry Lake, part of the Rideau Canal National Historic Site and UNESCO World Heritage site. The Rideau Canal National Historic Site is valued in part for its historic, ecological and visual associations with shore lands and communities along the

Page 2 of 5

Page 153 of 250

PL-ZNA-2023-0063 June 23, 2023 waterway which contribute to the unique historical environment of the canal [Parks Canada, Rideau Canal Commemorative Integrity Statement, 2000]. In addition, when the Rideau Canal was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2007, the World Heritage Committee recognized a 30 metre buffer zone surrounding the inscribed property and recommended that consideration be given to strengthening the canal’s visual protection outside the buffer zone, in order to ensure that the visual values of the setting are protected alongside environmental values. In this sector of the Canal the buffer zone extends back from the high water mark of Little Cranberry Lake. Per the Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention, effective management of a world heritage site goes beyond the property to include any buffer zone(s), as well as the broader setting. Ways this can be achieved are through limiting development within the 30 metre buffer zone, and by designing development to be unobtrusive, visually screened and integrated within the vegetation and topography. We encourage developing the property in a manner that complements the visual character of the landscape and minimizes visual impact on the protected heritage property. The use of building materials and colours that blend in with the surrounding landscape are encouraged. Earth tones and neutral colours are recommended for the finished exteriors. Reflective materials, such as galvanized and bare metals, particularly for roof coverings and support structures, are discouraged. In accordance with the PPS (2020), planning authorities shall strive to maintain, and where possible, enhance water quality through the review of development proposals. One way to achieve this and to protect natural heritage is through provision of an adequate riparian buffer or “ribbon-of-life”. A minimum buffer of 30 metres can provide a buffer of undisturbed soil and vegetation along the shoreline, which will help to filter runoff, prevent soil erosion, and provide wildlife habitat. The proposal includes a near four-fold increase in the developed area along the waterfront alone (this calculation does not include the proposed garage at 88m from water), and further increases encroachment towards the water, into the 30m buffer zone, than the existing development. To help protect the natural heritage, cultural heritage and scenic values of the waterway, we recommend that the proposed development encroaches no further towards the water than the closest point of the existing wood deck. For long term protection, we recommend preservation and, where possible, enhancement of the vegetative buffer between the proposed building and the water. This can be achieved through: • • •

Limiting vegetation and soil mantle disturbance within 30 m of the water; Directing runoff from hardened surfaces (e.g. roofs, decking, patios) away from the water to a vegetated area to allow for maximum infiltration before entering the lake; Use of native, non-invasive species when landscaping and gardening on waterfront properties.

PL-ZNA-2023-0063 June 23, 2023 Over the last ten years, Parks Canada has been working closely with all 13 municipalities, three counties, two conservations authorities, the Province and First Nations along the Rideau Canal as part of a collaborative working group called the Rideau Corridor Landscape Strategy. One of the initiatives undertaken by this group is the Principles for Good Waterfront Development. The 10 Principles provide helpful guidance when undertaking new development/redevelopment along the historic site. Recommendation In summary, the RWDRT recommends deferral of the proposed development under application PL-ZNA-2023-0063 until the above-noted concerns are addressed. Specifically, we recommend that the proposed dwelling be shifted further back from the water, or reconfigured, so that it maintains the current highwater mark setback of the existing dwelling and attached deck. We also recommend implementation of the above-noted environmental mitigation measures (in bold text). Regulatory Requirements Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 148/06: Development, Interference with Wetlands, and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses, 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 of Little Cranberry Lake, within 18 metres of the toe of slope of the shoreline, or within 120 meters of the limit of the PSW is subject to O. Reg. 148/06. Therefore, a CRCA permit will not be required for the construction of the dwelling, but a CRCA permit will be required for the proposed detached garage. The landowner(s) should contact CRCA’s office at the building permit stage for more information about permitting requirements under O. Reg. 148/06. The Parks Canada Rideau Canal Office is an approval authority for all in-water and shoreline works along the Rideau Canal. If the landowner wishes to carry out any in-water and shoreline works, the Rideau Canal Office must be contacted. Written approval must be obtained prior to the commencement of construction. Work must adhere to the Policies for In-water and Shoreline Works and Related Activities. The Parks Canada/Rideau Canal permitting staff can be reached at on-rc-cr.permits-permis@pc.gc.ca. 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, .

PL-ZNA-2023-0063

Discussion/Analysis Property Description The 9.9 hectare (24.5 acre) subject property has frontage on Little Cranberry Lake and is accessed by Stafford Lane. The property is in an area of similar waterfront residential development. The property is a flag shaped lot which extends from the shoreline of Little Cranberry Lake northward in a thin strip until expanding substantially in the northern section of the property. The northern area is characterized by a large Provincially Significant Wetland, which is zoned Environmental Protection. Stafford Lane cuts through the property, separating its southern most tip from the rest of the property. All of the existing buildings are located at the southernmost end of the property, more than 120 metres from the wetland, south of Stafford Lane. The property currently has a seasonal cottage (34.7 metres from highwater mark) with a deck (28.2 metres from highwater mark) between Stafford Lane and Little Cranberry Lake, as well as numerous accessory structures around the property. A septic system is currently located on the eastern side of the property, adjacent to the current location of the cottage.

Summary of Proposal The Applicant is proposing to demolish all of the existing structures on the property, and to construct a seasonal dwelling with an attached garage and covered deck south for Stafford Lane. The building will possess a 193sq metre footprint. The seasonal dwelling will be one story tall with a finished walkout basement. The building will be setback a minimum of 24 metres from the highwater mark of Little Cranberry Lake at its closest point. It would be located in the same general area as the existing seasonal dwelling. A new septic system would be installed north of Stafford Lane. The Applicant also intends to build a detached garage on the north side of Stafford Lane which will conform to all zoning requirements.

Department and Agency Comments Building Services The application was reviewed by Building Services who had no objections from a septic system perspective. However, they noted that the complexities of constructing a septic

system where the force main line is placed under a laneway may require a professional engineer with expertise in the field of sewage to design the system. Rideau Waterway Development Review Team (RWDRT) The RWDRT, consisting of staff from Cataraqui Conservation and Parks Canada, indicated in a letter dated June 23, 2023, that the proposed dwelling would be located outside the flooding hazard and shoreline erosion hazard associated with Little Cranberry Lake. The RWDRT expressed concerns about a possible impact the proposed development may have on the visual character of the Rideau Canal with particular concern about encroachment within a 30m buffer-zone of the shoreline. They recommend deferral of the application so that the Applicant can consider shifting the proposed dwelling further back from the water, or to reconfigure the dwelling, so that it maintains the current highwater mark setback of the existing dwelling and attached deck. If the application is approved, the RWDRT recommend the following for long term protection of the lake:

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. All four tests must be met for an application to be approved. 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 property is designated Rural in the Township Official Plan. The proposed dwelling is consistent with the permitted residential use of the property. Although the property is quite large, it was created with the intent that the main use of the property would be located between Stafford Lane and Little Cranberry Lake. All of the www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

PL-ZNA-2023-0063

properties along the lane, including the subject property, were developed with the buildings and structures located south of the lane and with a range of setbacks from the highwater mark. Section 5.2.7(b)(3) of the Official Plan contains policies for development and site alterations adjacent to lakes and rivers. The policy allows for the consideration of expanding buildings within 30 metres of the highwater mark based on an evaluation of the total building footprint and lot coverage being proposed, the closeness of the existing building to the high-water mark, and the capacity of the lot to accommodate a greater setback. The proposal was evaluated in line with these policies. The combined footprint area of the existing buildings and structures on the property is 115 square metres, while the footprint area of the new seasonal dwelling would be 193 square metres. This represents a total lot coverage increase of 0.0008%, which is negligible. The dwelling is proposed to be setback 24m from the highwater mark, which is 10.7m closer than the existing cottage, and slightly closer than the existing deck that is in front of the cottage. However, it will be setback farther than an existing shed which has a current setback of 20.9 metres. Since all the existing buildings will be removed, the new dwelling location represents a net increase in setback for this lot. Finally, this lot does not have the capacity to accommodate a greater setback from the water while remaining in the established developed area on the south side of Stafford Lane. As a result, the proposed location of the seasonal dwelling is setback as far as possible from the highwater mark while allowing for functional and safe access to and from the Lane. With all these factors considered, the proposed variances maintain the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? The property is zoned Limited Service Residential Waterfront (RLSW). The proposed seasonal dwelling is a permitted use on the property. The dwelling complies with all applicable zoning provisions with the exception of the front yard/highwater mark setback. The intent of the 30-metre setback from water is generally to avoid pollution or degradation to the waterbody in question, through the provision of a natural riparian buffer. Generally, the largest contributor to possible water pollution is a buildings sewage system. In this proposal, the redevelopment of the site would result in the sewage system being relocated to significantly increase its distance from the lake (~75m). As indicated above, the dwelling footprint would be 78sq m (840sq ft) larger than the combined footprint area of all the existing structures that will be removed from the property. This would result in the consolidation of the developed area of the lot, to one centralized location. As stated above, it was the intention when this lot was created that the primary use of the lot would be developed to the south of Stafford Lane. This is in line with the historical use of both www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

the subject property and the surrounding property. By adhering to this historical precedent, development is pushed closer to the lands directly adjacent to Little Cranberry Lake. As a result, the area around the currently developed cottage represents the most desirable area for the rebuild. Further, the proposed location of the seasonal dwelling is setback as far as reasonably possible from the highwater mark of Little Cranberry Lake while respecting the required setbacks and safe distance from Stafford Lane. As the proposal places its development on the previously developed area, as far away from the lake as possible; the proposal does 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 variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The property in question is a large lot, however the existing developed area is quite small. Stafford Lane cuts through the property, severing it into an expansive northern piece and a small southern slice. A large portion of the northern piece of the property is covered by forest and the Beacon Point Provincially Significant Wetland. Building on the southern piece of this lot would ensure that the development takes place as far as possible from this environmentally sensitive area. It is the intention of the applicant to rebuild the dwelling on the same general location as the current cottage. The proposed location represents the least disruptive area to build on the lot as the site is already developed. The proposed dwelling is to be placed as far away from the shore of Little Cranberry Lake as is possible with consideration to the location of the lane and the need for a functional driveway. The new septic system will be built to the north of the lane, which is an improvement over the existing condition. The lack of disruption to vegetation, the redevelopment on previously developed land, the location of the dwelling as far as possible from Little Cranberry Lake, and the relocation of the septic system represents the desirable and appropriate development of the land. As a result of all these factors the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of these lands. Is the variance minor? Yes, the variance is minor as it maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The proposed development would be in keeping with the general development of surrounding properties. A shoreline remediation plan is a recommended condition of approval to improve the vegetation buffer between the dwelling and the shoreline. This would help to mitigate any potential visual impact on the Rideau Canal.

Application for Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2023-0064 (Cain) Pt Lot 3, Concession 12; 8270 Perth Road Bedford District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Pollywog 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 construction of a garage and bunkie on the subject property. The garage has not been constructed yet, however the bunkie was constructed without planning or permit approvals. The minor variance 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 17 metres to permit the construction of the bunkie. Staff note that based on observations taken on site, the bunkie is estimated to be located 12 – 13 metres from the highwater mark, rather than 17 metres as indicated on the application and supporting site plan. Provide relief from Section 8.3.2 of the Zoning By-law to permit the detached garage to be located 12.1 metres from the front lot line.

Site Description The subject property is located on the east side of Perth Road and the property has water frontage on Pollywog Lake. The topography of the site can be characterized as having a high and steep rock embankment adjacent to the lake, which levels out to a tableland where the development is proposed. There are young and mature trees interspersed throughout the lot. The property currently contains an existing dwelling, a garden shed, a wood shed, a bunkie, and some stairs down to the water. Staff visited the site on June 27, 2023. Page 1 of 3

Page 180 of 250

The property is currently designated as ‘Rural’ in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Waterfront Residential’ (RW) in the Zoning By-law for South Frontenac Township. 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 Pollywog Lake. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 148/06 Flooding: Cataraqui Conservation does not have floodplain mapping for Pollywog Lake. However, due to the difference in elevation between the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake and the top of bank, flooding is not expected to occur inland of the top of bank. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 148/06 (see description below) requires that all development be set back a minimum of 6 metres from the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Therefore, the proposed garage and constructed bunkie are considered to be outside of any area of potential flood risk. Erosion: Section 5.8.2.b) of the Township’s Zoning By-law requires that no building or structure or septic tank installation shall be located within 15 metres horizontal of the top of bank of any embankment, the slope of which is greater than 30% from horizontal. Cataraqui Conservation, in accordance with provincial technical standards, defines the extent of the erosion hazard associated with the shoreline of Pollywog Lake as the sum of an allowance for toe erosion (estimated to be 1 metre), a stable slope allowance of 1(h):1(v) for bedrock shorelines and a minimum erosion access allowance of 6 metres. Based on elevation mapping, aerial imagery, and observations taken on site, the rock embankment is roughly 9.5 metres high, therefore the erosion hazard would extend approximately 16.5 metres inland from the toe of slope (1 + 9.5 + 6). The constructed bunkie consists of a 12.34 square metre enclosed structure (including an enclosed, cantilevered second storey) and a 7.56 square metre wood platform. The platform is currently located about 3.18 metres from the top of bank, and the enclosed structure is about 4.7 metres from the top of bank. The top of bank is located about 9.5 metres inland from the toe of slope, therefore the bunkie falls within the extent of the erosion hazard. In order to comply with CRCA’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 148/06, the bunkie, including the attached platform, will need to be relocated or reconfigured so that it is located at least 7 metres from the top of bank. Alternatively, to remain in its current location, the platform could be removed and the enclosed structure could be reduced in size so that it is less than 10 square metres in area (including the cantilevered second storey), since CRCA does not regulate structures smaller than 10 square metres.

Page 181 of 250

Recommendation In summary, staff have no concerns with the proposed detached garage based on our consideration for natural hazard policies, however, since the constructed bunkie is located within the regulatory erosion hazard setback, staff do not support approval of this part of the minor variance application. We recommend deferral of application PL-ZNA-2023-0064 until the above-noted concerns (in bold text) are addressed to the satisfaction of Cataraqui Conservation. Ontario Regulation 148/06 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 148/06: Development, Interference with Wetlands, and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses, 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 30 metres of the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake or within 25.5 metres of the toe of slope of the shoreline is subject to O. Reg. 148/06. Therefore, a permit will be required from our office for the bunkie, however a permit will not be required for the proposed garage. Staff will follow-up with landowner(s) to provide more information about how the constructed bunkie can achieve compliance with O. Reg. 148/06. 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 e-mail at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly,

Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2023-0064, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of this application for zoning relief for a proposed 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: Waterfront Residential (RW) Zoning Relief Requested Section 8.3.2 – To permit an accessory detached garage to be setback 12.1m from the front lot line, whereas the zoning by-law requires a minimum of 20m. Related Applications The subject property is subject to Minor Variance Application PL-ZNA-2023-0083 for an additional detached accessory structure (art studio/storage shed).

Discussion Property Description The subject property is a lot of record measuring at approximately 1.4ha in area with frontage on Perth Road and Pollywog Lake. The property contains an existing 177.4sqm (1909.5sqft) one-storey dwelling and three detached accessory structures. Regarding topography, the subject property is relatively flat around the area of the sewage system and the front of the dwelling, before sloping down steeply towards the shoreline. The subject property is primarily forested, with the exception of cleared areas where the existing dwelling and driveway are

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0064, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

situated. Finally, the surrounding area is characterized by similar rural residential, and waterfront residential developments. Summary of Proposal This proposal seeks relief from Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 to permit an accessory structure in the Waterfront Residential Zone to be setback less than 20m from the front lot line. The applicant is proposing to construct a 66.3sqm (713.6sqft) detached garage, setback 12.1m from the front lot line. Agency Comments Cataraqui Conservation staff, in a letter dated June 29, 2023, provided comments stating that they had no objection to approval of the application. Public Services staff reviewed the proposal in light of the reduced front yard setback and its potential effect on Perth Road. They had no objection to the approval of the application. Public Comments No comments were received from the public at the time of the writing of 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 in the Township. The proposed detached garage is accessory to the permitted residential use of the property. It is the opinion of Township Planning staff that the proposed variance maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan, specifically the policies related to waterfront 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 RW zone. The proposed detached garage complies with all requirements of the Zoning By-law except the minimum setback from the front lot line. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 184 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0064, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

Section 8.3.2 of the Zoning By-law requires accessory structures be setback a minimum of 20m from the front lot line, whereas the proposed detached garage is to be setback 12.1m. The purpose of this setback is to avoid an overdeveloped appearance near roadways and to ensure the rural character of the area is maintained. When considering the change in topography, the 30m setback from Pollywog Lake and the location of existing accessory structures, there would be limited opportunity to locate a compliant structure. Further, the location of the proposed garage has been selected to maximize functionality of the subject property, being a natural extension from the existing driveway. The proposed location is currently used for outdoor storage and is cleared of trees and vegetation, therefore minimal vegetation will be lost during construction. Finally, there are existing trees and vegetation between the proposed location and the road which will effectively screen the proposed garage. As such, it is the opinion of Township staff that the proposed variance maintains 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 variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The proposed location of the garage will maximize functionality of the structure as it extends directly from the existing driveway. Further, the proposed garage will be visually screened from Perth Road by an existing tree buffer and will not have a greater impact of the surrounding are than existing conditions. Is the variance minor? The requested variance is minor as it maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. Further, the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the lands. It is anticipated that there will be no negative impact on surrounding properties 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

Application Description:

Feature:

White Lake

Part Lot 12, Concession 3

Bedford

Relief from Township of South Frontenac Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 to allow for the proposed dwelling to be setback 20 metres, rather than the required 30 metres from the high-water mark of White Lake. The proposal also is seeking permission to increase lot coverage for the principal structure to 12.7%.

Natural Hazard policies of the PPS, Quinte Conservation Planning Act Review policy, and Ontario Regulation #319/09 Conservation Authorities have Provincially delegated responsibilities to represent Provincial interests regarding natural hazards under Section 3.1 of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) (2020). Natural hazards include areas subject to flooding, prone to erosion, dynamic beaches, and unstable bedrock. Generally, the policies of the PPS direct development to areas outside of hazard lands. Staff are satisfied that the application as presented is consistent with section 3.1 of the PPS.

Comments:

The subject lands lie within the regulated area of White Lake (by virtue of Ontario Regulation #319/09 – Regulation of Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses). The existing dwelling on the property is located within the setback allowance (15 metres) of the 1:100-year flood plain of White Lake. As per the minor variance application, it is understood that the footprint of the new dwelling will be setback 24 metres from the seasonal high-water mark of the Lake and that the new attached deck will be located 20 metres from the seasonal high-water mark of the Lake. The proposed dwelling and deck will not encroach any closer to White Lake than the existing footprint of the current dwelling and attached deck which is consistent with Quinte Conservation regulation and policies [specifically, Section 5.13.1.c) and 5.13.3 of Watershed Regulations Policy Manual, dated January 2023]. As a result, staff have no concerns regarding the proposed reconstruction of the dwelling. It should be noted that, if the new dwelling necessitates an enlargement of the current sewage system, the proposed sewage system must meet a minimum of 15 metres from the 1:100-year flood plain of White Lake. These planning comments do not constitute permission to develop within a Quinte Conservation regulated area. A permit from Quinte Conservation will be required for any excavation below grade (demolition of basement), and for the construction of the proposed new dwelling, in addition to any other development (construction / site grading / filling / excavation) within 30 metres of the 1:100-year flood plain of White Lake. The permitting process is a separate process from the plan review process, and a separate fee will be applied to future permit application(s) to this office.

Quinte Region Source Protection Plan Quinte Conservation provides Risk Management services as prescribed by the Clean Water Act, 2006 on behalf of member municipalities. Part of this is reviewing building and planning applications to ensure no new significant drinking water threats as outlined in the Quinte Region Source Protection Plan are created. Policies for significant threats in the Quinte Region Source Protection Plan are not applicable as the subject property lies outside of an intake protection Page 1 of 2

Page 206 of 250

zone or wellhead protection area for a municipal drinking water system. As such no Section 59 Clearance Notice is required.

Other Potential Municipal/Township Studies As per Sections 21.1.1 and 21.1.2 of Ontario Regulation 596/22 (amendments made under the Conservation Authorities Act) as a result of the More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022, conservation authorities are no longer able to review or provide comment on Natural Heritage and Hydrogeology, nor is this office able to peer-review technical reports related to these maters. If the Township requests a hydrogeological assessment or Environmental Impact Study (EIS) it should be peer-reviewed by a qualified consultant. Final Comments:

Quinte Conservation has no objection to the minor variance application as presented.

To: Committee of Adjustment Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: August 10, 2023 Permission Application (S. 45(2) of Planning Act) Subject: PL-ZNA-2023-0074, Reitzel, 131A West Shore Lane, Bedford 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 Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) Zoning Relief Requested The applicant seeks permission under section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge a legal non-complying dwelling on the property within 30 metres of the highwater mark of White Lake. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act.

Discussion Property Description The subject property is an undersized lot of record measuring at 0.146Ha (0.36Ac) in area with frontage on West Shore Lane and White Lake. The property is accessible by private lane (West Shore Lane) via White Lake Road. Existing development consists of a 1777sqft (165.1sqm) dwelling with attached deck and three accessory structures. The subject property is mostly flat, with a subtle change in elevation near the shoreline. The property contains several mature trees and vegetation growth. Finally, the subject property exists within an area characterized by similar waterfront residential development. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 208 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0074, Reitzel, 131A West Shore Lane, Bedford District

Summary of Proposal To request permission under section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge a legal noncomplying dwelling located within 30m of the highwater mark of White Lake. The existing 1282sqft (119.1sqm) dwelling with 495sqft (46sqm) attached deck is setback 78ft (23.8m) from the highwater mark of the lake. The existing dwelling is to be replaced with a 1355.5sqft (125.9sqm) one-storey dwelling with 744sqft (69.1sqm) attached deck. A majority of the proposed dwelling will be located within the footprint of the existing dwelling and will be setback slightly farther from White Lake. However, the applicants are seeking permission for the same setback value (78ft) to provide additional flexibility at the build stage. As such, the proposed dwelling will not encroach any farther from the highwater mark than the existing dwelling. Finally, the proposal would facilitate an increase in dwelling height from 13.1ft (4m) to 22ft (6.7m) and a 2.1% increase in lot coverage from 11.3% to 13.4%. Agency Comments Quinte Conservation staff, in a letter dated July 25, 2023, provided comments stating that they had no objection to approval of the application. They note that the proposed development is located within the area regulated by O. Reg 319/09. Therefore, the proposed dwelling will require a Quinte Conservation Permit. The sewage system on the subject property was installed under the assumption that the existing dwelling would be enlarged. As such, there are no concerns with capacity. Further, the sewage system is located appropriately from the proposed dwelling. For these reasons, Building Services were not circulated on the application. Public Comments Supportive comments were received from an adjacent property owner. Planning Analysis The property is zoned RLSW. Dwellings are a permitted use in the RLSW Zone. 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 gross floor area or increase in height. This provision prohibits the enlargement of existing buildings, without seeking permission from the Committee of Adjustment. The existing seasonal dwelling holds legal non-complying status as it was constructed prior to the current Zoning By-law and is setback approximately 78ft (23.8m) from the highwater mark of White Lake. Through its powers under Section 45(2) of the Planning Act, the Committee of Adjustment may grant permission to enlarge the dwelling. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 209 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0074, Reitzel, 131A West Shore Lane, Bedford District

The proposed enlargement would involve the existing 1777sqft (165.1sqm) dwelling (w/attached deck) being replaced with a 2099.5sqft (195sqm) dwelling (w/attached deck), a 322.5sqft (29.9sqm) increase in gross floor area. Further, the enlargement would facilitate an increase in dwelling height from 13.1ft (4m) to 22ft (6.7m) and a 2.1% increase in lot coverage from 11.3% to 13.4%. The proposed enlargement would not result in further encroachment within 30m of the highwater mark of White Lake and will be setback a minimum of 78ft (23.8m). Lot coverage of the existing dwelling is currently 11.3%. As such, the proposed increase to 13.4% is interpreted as a modest increase over existing conditions. This scale and density of development is not out of character for the neighbourhood and would not conflict with surrounding properties. Further, there will be considerable overlap in the footprint of the proposed building compared to the existing which will minimize the amount of site disturbance and vegetation removal. Given the irregular shape of the lot and the location of the existing sewage system (just beyond 5m to the rear of the dwelling) and accessory structures, there would be limited opportunity to construct the new dwelling in a compliant location. Maintaining existing vegetation within 30m of White Lake will assist in screening the development from adjacent properties and assist in mitigating visual impacts when viewed from the lake. Maintenance of a healthy shoreline buffer of native vegetation is recommended by way of development agreement registered on the title of the property.

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-2023-0074 for 131A West Shore Lane, subject to the following conditions.

  1. Permission is granted to enlarge the legal non-complying dwelling on the subject property. The dwelling is permitted to be enlarged to 1355.5sqft (125.9sqm) with a 744sqft (69.1sqm) attached deck, and to be 22ft (6.7m) in height. The dwelling with attached deck may be setback a minimum of 78ft (23.8m) from the highwater mark of White Lake. The location and dimensions of the proposed dwelling must be generally

consistent with the application and with the applicant’s site sketch, submitted August 2, 2033, that will be attached to the Decision as Schedule ‘A”. 2. 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 shoreline of White Lake and neighbouring buildings and structures 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 shoreline, except in the immediate are of the building envelope. 3. 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.

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 Minor Variance PL-ZNA-2023-0064 (Cain) Pt Lot 3, Concession 12; 8270 Perth Road Bedford District, Township of South Frontenac Waterbody: Pollywog 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 construction of a garage and bunkie on the subject property. The garage has not been constructed yet, however the bunkie was constructed without planning or permit approvals. The minor variance 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 17 metres to permit the construction of the bunkie. Staff note that based on observations taken on site, the bunkie is estimated to be located 12 – 13 metres from the highwater mark, rather than 17 metres as indicated on the application and supporting site plan. Provide relief from Section 8.3.2 of the Zoning By-law to permit the detached garage to be located 12.1 metres from the front lot line.

Site Description The subject property is located on the east side of Perth Road and the property has water frontage on Pollywog Lake. The topography of the site can be characterized as having a high and steep rock embankment adjacent to the lake, which levels out to a tableland where the development is proposed. There are young and mature trees interspersed throughout the lot. The property currently contains an existing dwelling, a garden shed, a wood shed, a bunkie, and some stairs down to the water. Staff visited the site on June 27, 2023. Page 1 of 3

Page 222 of 250

The property is currently designated as ‘Rural’ in the Official Plan and is zoned ‘Waterfront Residential’ (RW) in the Zoning By-law for South Frontenac Township. 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 Pollywog Lake. Natural Hazards / Ontario Regulation 148/06 Flooding: Cataraqui Conservation does not have floodplain mapping for Pollywog Lake. However, due to the difference in elevation between the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake and the top of bank, flooding is not expected to occur inland of the top of bank. Cataraqui Conservation’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 148/06 (see description below) requires that all development be set back a minimum of 6 metres from the regulatory floodplain of a waterbody. Therefore, the proposed garage and constructed bunkie are considered to be outside of any area of potential flood risk. Erosion: Section 5.8.2.b) of the Township’s Zoning By-law requires that no building or structure or septic tank installation shall be located within 15 metres horizontal of the top of bank of any embankment, the slope of which is greater than 30% from horizontal. Cataraqui Conservation, in accordance with provincial technical standards, defines the extent of the erosion hazard associated with the shoreline of Pollywog Lake as the sum of an allowance for toe erosion (estimated to be 1 metre), a stable slope allowance of 1(h):1(v) for bedrock shorelines and a minimum erosion access allowance of 6 metres. Based on elevation mapping, aerial imagery, and observations taken on site, the rock embankment is roughly 9.5 metres high, therefore the erosion hazard would extend approximately 16.5 metres inland from the toe of slope (1 + 9.5 + 6). The constructed bunkie consists of a 12.34 square metre enclosed structure (including an enclosed, cantilevered second storey) and a 7.56 square metre wood platform. The platform is currently located about 3.18 metres from the top of bank, and the enclosed structure is about 4.7 metres from the top of bank. The top of bank is located about 9.5 metres inland from the toe of slope, therefore the bunkie falls within the extent of the erosion hazard. In order to comply with CRCA’s Guidelines for Implementing Ontario Regulation 148/06, the bunkie, including the attached platform, will need to be relocated or reconfigured so that it is located at least 7 metres from the top of bank. Alternatively, to remain in its current location, the platform could be removed and the enclosed structure could be reduced in size so that it is less than 10 square metres in area (including the cantilevered second storey), since CRCA does not regulate structures smaller than 10 square metres.

Page 223 of 250

Recommendation In summary, staff have no concerns with the proposed detached garage based on our consideration for natural hazard policies, however, since the constructed bunkie is located within the regulatory erosion hazard setback, staff do not support approval of this part of the minor variance application. We recommend deferral of application PL-ZNA-2023-0064 until the above-noted concerns (in bold text) are addressed to the satisfaction of Cataraqui Conservation. Ontario Regulation 148/06 Please note that portions of the subject lands are subject to Ontario Regulation 148/06: Development, Interference with Wetlands, and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses, 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 30 metres of the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake or within 25.5 metres of the toe of slope of the shoreline is subject to O. Reg. 148/06. Therefore, a permit will be required from our office for the bunkie, however a permit will not be required for the proposed garage. Staff will follow-up with landowner(s) to provide more information about how the constructed bunkie can achieve compliance with O. Reg. 148/06. 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 e-mail at jtreash@crca.ca. Yours truly,

Minor Variance Application (S. 45(1) of Planning Act) PL-ZNA-2023-0083, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

Summary This report recommends that the Committee of Adjustment grant approval of this application for zoning relief for an art studio/storage shed, 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) Zoning Relief Requested Section 5.8.2 – To permit an accessory structure to be setback 7m from the top of bank, whereas the Zoning By-law requires a minimum of 15m. Section 8.3.3 – To permit an accessory structure to be setback 17m from the highwater mark of a waterbody, whereas the Zoning By-law requires a minimum of 30m. Related Applications The subject property is subject to Minor Variance Application PL-ZNA-2023-0064 for a detached garage.

Discussion Property Description The subject property is a lot of record measuring at approximately 1.4ha in area with frontage on Perth Road and Pollywog Lake. The property contains an existing 177.4sqm (1909.5sqft) one-storey dwelling and three detached accessory structures. Regarding topography, the subject property is relatively flat around the area of the sewage system and the front of the www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0083, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

dwelling, before sloping down steeply towards the shoreline. The subject property is primarily forested, with the exception of cleared areas where the existing dwelling and driveway are situated. Finally, the surrounding area is characterized by similar rural residential, and waterfront residential developments. Summary of Proposal Through the submission of Minor Variance application PL-ZNA-2023-0064, it was discovered that the applicant had constructed an accessory structure (art studio/storage shed) without receiving the required planning and building approvals. This structure was reported to be 10.8sqm in size and is setback 3m from the top of bank and 13m from the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake. It was determined that the structure is actually 19.9sqm (214sqft), and consisted of a 12.34sqm enclosed structure and a 7.56sqm wood platform. The applicant is proposing to relocate the structure so that it would be setback 7m from the top of bank and 17m from the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake. As such, this proposal seeks relief from Zoning By-law No. 2003-75 to permit the art studio/storage shed to be setback less than 15m from the top of bank, and less than 30m from the highwater mark of a waterbody. Agency Comments Cataraqui Conservation staff, in a letter dated June 29, 2023, provided comment regarding the application. CRCA staff noted that the existing accessory structure was within the extent of the erosion hazard and would need to be relocated a minimum 7m from the top of bank to receive a permit under Ontario Regulation 148/06. The applicant was agreeable to this condition and has relocated the accessory structure to 7m from the top of bank. The 7m setback considers the 6m erosion access allowance, in addition to the 1m toe erosion allowance. The erosion access allowance is intended to ensure access to the site for emergencies and maintenance, and the toe erosion allowance reflects the possible erosion of the toe of the slope. Under these conditions, CRCA staff have no objection to the approval of the application. Further, the existing accessory structure will require a CRCA permit. Public Comments No comments were received from the public at the time of the writing of 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? www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 226 of 250

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0083, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

The variance would recognize the proposed location of an art studio/storage shed that was constructed without the necessary planning and building approvals. The structure is 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 in the Township. The proposed art studio/storage shed is accessory to the permitted residential use of the property. Section 5.2.4 of the Official Plan states that the Township will direct development or site alterations away from lands which may be subject to shoreline erosion hazard. This is typically addressed through a 15m setback from the top of bank, as required by the Zoning By-law. Cataraqui Conservation staff reviewed the proposal and concluded the accessory structure, located 3m from the top of bank, is within the extent of the erosion hazard. The proposed location was not supportable. However, they could support a minor variance for a minimum 7m setback from the top of bank and could issue a permit under O. Reg. 148/06. The 7m setback would ensure the accessory structure would be accessible for maintenance or in the case of emergency. Further, it would ensure the accessory structure is outside of the possible erosion area of the toe of the slope. As such, Township Planning staff are satisfied that the proposed development would not result in, or be impacted by, a shoreline erosion hazard. Section 5.2.7 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 purpose of these measures is to minimize environmental and visual impacts by reducing phosphorus inputs, preventing erosion and by maintaining the natural appearance of shorelines. The proposed location is partially cleared of trees due to an existing walking path and rock outcropping. Therefore, minimal tree clearance would be required to accommodate the structure. Further, the structure is not built on a foundation, and will have minimal impact on the soil mantle. Regarding the potential influence of the structure on the surrounding area, existing tree cover would adequately screen the accessory structure from the lake. Also, the elevation of the proposed location relative to the lake would minimize any intrusive effects. It is the opinion of Township Planning staff that the proposed variance maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan, specifically the policies related to waterfront residential development and development in sensitive environmental areas. Does the variance maintain the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law? An accessory structure is a permitted use within the RW Zone. The re-located art studio/bunkie would comply with all requirements of the Zoning By-law except the minimum setback from the top of bank and highwater mark of a waterbody.

Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZNA-2023-0083, Cain, 8270 Perth Road, Bedford District

Section 5.8.2 of the Zoning By-law states that no structures shall be located within 15m horizontal of the top of bank of a slope which is greater than 30% from horizontal. As described above, the accessory structure will be outside the extent of the erosion hazard. Sections 5.8.2 and 8.3.3 of the Zoning By-law require structures to be setback a minimum of 30m from the highwater mark of a waterbody. The purpose of this setback is to minimize environmental and visual impacts to the lake. Given the size of the accessory structure and its proposed use as an art studio/storage shed, a 17m setback is unlikely to deteriorate the environmental quality of Pollywog Lake. The primary use of the structure will be recreational in nature and will involve minimal storage of art supplies. Further, the existing tree coverage and elevation relative to the highwater mark will minimize any intrusive effects the accessory structure may have on the lake. Finally, as the proposed location would effectively limit risk to the structure from any potential shoreline erosion hazard, Planning staff are satisfied with a minimum setback of 17m from the highwater mark. As such, it is the opinion of Township staff that the proposed variance maintains 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 variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The proposed location relative to the lake is appropriate given the recreational use of the structure and would limit potential erosional hazard. Further, the elevation of the property relative to the lake and existing vegetation growth will effectively screen the accessory structure and minimize any intrusive effects. Finally, the proposed location will be setback far enough into the interior of the property so as to have no greater effect on the surrounding area as existing conditions. Is the variance minor? The requested variance is minor as it maintains the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. Further, the requested variance is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. It is anticipated that there will be no negative impact on surrounding properties as a result of allowing the proposed art studio/storage shed in the proposed location on the property.

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 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-2023-0083 for 8270 Perth Road, subject to the following conditions.

  1. The minor variance is for a 19.9sqm (214sqft) accessory structure. The minimum top of bank setback for the accessory structure is permitted to be 7m. Further, the minimum setback for this structure from the highwater mark of Pollywog Lake is permitted to be 17m. The location of the accessory structure must be generally consistent with the sketch submitted by the applicant on July 12, 2023.
  2. 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.
  3. Minor variance PL-ZNA-2023-0083 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, MCIP RPP, Senior Planner

Application Description:

Minor Variance Appl’n File No. PLZNA 2023 0087

Feature:

Thirty Island Lake

Part Lot 7, Concession 3

Bedford

Seeking permission under Section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge the legal non-complying cottage setback approximately 4 metres from Thirty Island Lake. The applicant is proposing to build an 18.1 square metre screened-in room over a portion of the existing attached deck. The gross floor area of the cottage will be increased from 52.5 square metres to 70.6 square metres. The screened-in room will not encroach further towards the lake than the footprint of the existing cottage.

Natural Hazard policies of the PPS, Quinte Conservation Planning Act Review policy, and Ontario Regulation 319/09 Conservation Authorities have Provincially delegated responsibilities to represent Provincial interests regarding natural hazards under Section 3.1 of the Provincial Policy Statement (PPS) (2020). Natural hazards include areas subject to flooding, prone to erosion, dynamic beaches, and unstable bedrock. Generally, the policies of the PPS direct development to areas outside of hazard lands. The existing cottage is located above the 1:100-year flood plain of Thirty Island Lake, and the proposed screened-in room will not encroach any closer to the hazard. As a result, staff are satisfied that the application as presented is consistent with section 3.1 of the PPS, and is consistent with Section 5.13.1.d) of Quinte Conservation Watershed Regulations Policy Manual, dated January 2023.

Comments:

The subject lands lie within the regulated area of Thirty Island Lake (by virtue of Ontario Regulation #319/09 – Regulation of Development, Interference with Wetlands and Alterations to Shorelines and Watercourses). Please note that the owners will need to apply to the Conservation Authority for a permit prior to any development (construction / filling/ excavation/ site grading) within 30 metres of the 1:100-year flood plain of the lake. These planning comments do not constitute permission to develop within a Quinte Conservation regulated area. A permit from Quinte Conservation will be required for the proposed screened-in room, as well as for the proposed decking and stairway access down to the water as illustrated within the site plan sketch provided with the application. The permitting process is a separate process from the plan review process, and a separate fee will be applied to future permit application(s) to this office.

Quinte Region Source Protection Plan Quinte Conservation provides Risk Management services as prescribed by the Clean Water Act, 2006 on behalf of member municipalities. Part of this is reviewing building and planning applications to ensure no new significant drinking water threats as outlined in the Quinte Region Source Protection Plan are created. Policies for significant threats in the Quinte Region Source Protection Plan are not applicable as the subject property lies outside of an intake protection zone or wellhead protection area for a municipal drinking water system. As such no Section 59 Clearance Notice is required.

Other Potential Municipal/Township Studies As per Sections 21.1.1 and 21.1.2 of Ontario Regulation 596/22 (amendments made under the Conservation Authorities Act) as a result of the More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022, conservation authorities are no longer able to review or provide comment on Natural Heritage and Hydrogeology, nor is this office able to peer-review technical reports related to these maters. If the Township/Municipality requests a hydrogeological assessment or Environmental Impact Study (EIS) it should be peer-reviewed by a qualified consultant.

Final Comments:

Quinte Conservation has no objection to the minor variance application as presented. The application is consistent with Section 3.1 of the PPS, Quinte Conservation Regulation and policies. The proposed screened-in room does not encroach any closer to the water than the footprint of the existing cottage. A permit will be required for the proposed screened-in room, as well as the decking and stairway access down to the water as illustrated within the site plan sketch provided with the application. Staff kindly request a copy of the Committee of Adjustment’s decision for this application when it comes available.

To: Committee of Adjustment Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: August 10, 2023 Permission Application (S. 45(2) of Planning Act) Subject: PL-ZNA-2023-0087, McCreary, 42 Woodside Lane, Bedford 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 Official Plan Designation: Rural Zoning: Limited Service Residential – Waterfront (RLSW) Permission Requested The applicant seeks permission under section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge a legal non-conforming dwelling on the property within 30 metres of the highwater mark of Thirty Island Lake. Related Applications The lands are not subject to any additional applications under the Planning Act.

Discussion Property Description The subject property is an undersized lot of record measuring at 0.37Ha (0.91Ac) in area with frontage on Woodside Lane and Thirty Island Lake. Access is via private lane (Woodside Lane) which cuts through the middle of the subject property. Existing development consists of a 565sqft (52.5sqm) seasonal dwelling with attached deck. The existing dwelling is setback approximately 13.4ft (4m) from the highwater mark of the lake, and the attached deck is setback 15.6ft (4.7m). Regarding topography, the subject property is situated within a slope www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

which levels out slightly near the shoreline of Thirty Island Lake. As a result of this slope, there is a raised staircase which provides access to the seasonal dwelling from Woodside Lane. The property contains several mature trees and vegetation growth. Finally, the subject property exists within an area characterized by similar waterfront residential development. Summary of Proposal To request permission under section 45(2) of the Planning Act to enlarge a legal nonconforming dwelling located within 30m of the highwater mark of Thirty Island Lake. The applicant is proposing to increase the gross floor area of the existing seasonal dwelling on the subject property. The proposed enlargement would involve constructing a screened-in room over a portion of the existing attached deck. The 195sqft (18.1sqm) proposed screenedin room would increase the gross floor area of the seasonal dwelling to 760sqft (70.6sqm) and would be setback 15.6ft (4.7m) from the highwater mark of Thirty Island Lake. The height of the proposed roof will be lower than the roof of the existing dwelling. Further, the overhang of the proposed roof will be less than that of the existing dwelling. Therefore, the proposed structure would not be greater in height, nor would it encroach further towards the lake, than the existing dwelling. Agency Comments Quinte Conservation staff, in a letter dated July 27, 2023, provided comments stating they had no objection to the approval of the application. Further, they identified that the proposed development is within the area regulated by O. Reg 319/09. Therefore, a Quinte Conservation permit will be required for the proposed screened-in room if it is approved by the Committee of Adjustment. Public Comments No comments were received from the public at the time of the writing of this report. Planning Analysis The subject property is zoned RLSW. The proposed attached screened-in room is accessory to the permitted residential use of the subject property. 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 gross floor area or increase in height. This provision prohibits the enlargement of existing buildings, without seeking permission from the Committee of Adjustment. The existing seasonal dwelling holds legal non-conforming status as it was constructed prior to the current Zoning By-law and is setback approximately 13.4ft (4m) from the highwater mark, with the attached deck being setback 15.6ft (4.7m). www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Through its powers under Section 45(2) of the Planning Act, the Committee of Adjustment may grant permission to enlarge the seasonal dwelling. The proposed enlargement would consist of a 195sqft (18.1sqm) screened-in room built over a portion of the existing attached deck. The proposed screened-in room would maintain the setback of the deck and be no closer to the highwater mark than the existing seasonal dwelling. There are existing mature trees between the existing seasonal dwelling and Thirty Island Lake which effectively screen the structure. As such, the proposed screened-in room should have no greater impact on the surrounding area over the existing building condition. Conclusion It is the opinion of staff that it is appropriate for the Committee of Adjustment to grant permission to enlarge 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-2023-0087 for 42 Woodside Lane, subject to the following conditions.

  1. Permission is granted to enlarge the legal non-conforming seasonal dwelling on the subject property. The dwelling may be enlarged by a 195sqft (18.1sqm) screened-in room setback a minimum of 15.6ft (4.7m) from the highwater mark of Thirty Island Lake. The location and dimensions of the screened-in room must be consistent with the applicants’ site sketch that will be attached to the Decision as Schedule “A”.
  2.

b. Roof runoff will be directed away from the shoreline of Thirty Island Lake and neighbouring buildings and structures 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 shoreline, except in the immediate area of the building envelope. 3. 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.
