To: Council Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: October 4, 2022 Public Meeting for Zoning By-law Amendment Application Subject: PL-ZBA-2022-0061, Frontenac Outfitters (2017), 6674 Bedford Road

Summary This report provides Council with information about Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2022-0061 for 6674 Bedford Road. If approved, the zone on the subject lands would be changed from Rural Commercial (RC) and Rural (RU) to a property specific Recreational Resort Commercial zone (RRC-XX). Consistent with Council’s Procedural By-law, Council will receive comments from the public on the application. Staff will bring a more detailed report considering applicable policy and public comments, as well as providing a recommendation to Council on this application at a future meeting.

Recommendation This report is for information only.

Background The property known as 6674 Bedford Road is zoned Rural Commercial (RC). Frontenac Outfitters (2017) is established on the property. This property also contains a single detached dwelling and three campsites. The property to the north (102904002025415) with frontage on Salmon Lake Road is zoned Rural (RU). The northern property also contains a campsite. The campsites are used for overflow when Frontenac Provincial Park is full. The northern property was severed in 2012 by a previous owner for residential purposes. The proposal is to change the zone on the two properties from Rural Commercial (RC) and Rural (RU) to a property specific Recreational Resort Commercial zone (RRC-XX). The bylaw would treat the two properties as one for the purpose of zoning, allow the existing Frontenac Outfitters business to continue, and permit a tourist establishment (campground) consisting of 12 tent sites and accessory buildings and uses. The majority of the tent sites would have a structure similar to a yurt. Accessory buildings and uses may include a

comfort station (e.g. composting toilets and outdoor showers) and an activity building (e.g. yoga studio and classroom). Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from the public on the proposed rezoning. The public meeting for the application will be a virtual public meeting using Zoom and telephone.

Supporting Documentation A planning justification report, environmental impact assessment, hydrogeological assessment, and onsite wastewater treatment review, as well as a conceptual site plan were submitted in support of the application. The application and supporting documents can be accessed in the Township’s CivicWeb Document Center (https://southfrontenac.civicweb.net/filepro/documents/88366/). Planning Justification Report A Planning Justification Report (Fotenn Planning + Design, July 27, 2022) was submitted in support of the application. The report assessed the appropriateness of the proposed zoning by-law amendment in the context of the surrounding area as well as its conformity with the applicable policy and regulatory framework. Environmental Impact Assessment An Environmental Impact Assessment (Ecological Services, June 1, 2021) was submitted in support of the application. The consultant undertook a background information review and field investigations. The field investigations included an ecological land classification and species at risk surveys. The properties were assessed for hydrological features (e.g. wetlands and watercourses), significant woodlands, significant wildlife habitat, significant areas of natural and scientific interest, and habitat of endangered species and threatened species. The consultant concluded that the subject lands contain significant woodland and significant wildlife habitat, and that Pearkes Lake contains fish habitat. The report concluded that the proposed development would not have a negative impact on natural heritage features and their ecological functions provided that several recommendations are adhered to. Examples of the recommendations include removing the existing waterfront campsite, removing portions of the existing gravel road and/or closing it to vehicular traffic, no tree clearing within 90 metres of the lake, excluding the wooded valley in the east half of the property from human intrusion (i.e. no go area), and installing any sewage system at least 120 metres from the lake.

Hydrogeological Assessment A preliminary hydrogeological assessment (ASC Environmental, September 20, 2021) and a supplemental hydrogeological assessment (ASC Environmental, February 22, 2022) were submitted in support of the application. The supplemental report concluded that there are sufficient quantities of groundwater available from an existing on-site well to support the existing and proposed development. A suitable water storage system would be required to ensure that the well is not overloaded during peak water use periods. A water quality treatment system would also be required to ensure safe, potable water. Onsite Waste Water Treatment Review An on-site wastewater treatment review (Groundwork Engineering Limited, September 15, 2021) was submitted in support of the application. The report determined that the total daily design sewage flow would not exceed 10,000L per day, and that there are two potential sites on the properties that would meet the requirements of the Ontario Building Code. Conceptual Site Plan A conceptual site plan (Fotenn Planning + Design, July 27, 2022) was submitted to illustrate the extent of the proposed campground on the properties. The drawing shows the location of existing and proposed campsites, internal roads and parking areas, a common area and outdoor shelter (comfort station).

Discussion/Analysis Property Description The subject properties have frontage on Bedford Road and Salmon Lake Road. The site has a combined area of 8.2 hectares (20.3 acres). The site has approximately 191 metres of continuous frontage on Pearkes Lake. Beyond the existing developed area at the south end of the site, the lands have an undulating, bedrock topography that is forested. The neighbourhood consists of large, rural landholdings, and rural and waterfront residential properties. Frontenac Provincial Park is located approximately one kilometre to the north. Attachment 1 to this report shows the location of the subject property relative to local landmarks. Related Applications The subject property is not subject to any other applications under the Planning Act. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Department and Agency Comments Public Services confirmed that a traffic impact study is not required as a significant amount of density is not proposed and the existing accesses to the site would not change. They had no objection to the approval of the rezoning application. Building Services had no objection to the approval of the rezoning application. They noted that it was demonstrated that the northern property would be capable of providing flexibility in siting a sewage system when it was created in 2012. Cataraqui Conservation indicated in a letter dated August 29, 2022, that the scale and location of the proposed campground development represents a minimal level of site disturbance that is not anticipated to negatively impact Pearkes Lake. The proposal allows for the maintenance and enhancement of a healthy vegetated buffer between all buildings and structures and the lake. They have no objection to the approval of the rezoning application provided that a minimum 50 metre setback from the highwater mark be applied to any campsites, buildings and structures, and that a minimum 120 metre setback from the highwater mark be applied to any sewage system. They recommended that the EIA recommendations which cannot be implemented through the zoning by-law amendment be implemented through site plan control. Public Comments No comments were received from the public. Preliminary Planning Analysis The proposed rezoning needs to be assessed against the applicable policies of the Provincial Policy Statement 2020, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75. The PPS, County Official Plan and Township Official Plan express the importance of having consideration for economics, environmental health, and social well-being in decisions on land use planning matters. Although these documents promote recreational and tourism opportunities, these opportunities cannot be at the expense of the environment and the community they also require growth to be directed in a manner that will preserve environmental integrity while enhancing both the area’s rural character and its long-term economic viability. The supporting documentation demonstrates that the proposed campground would enhance the existing commercial use of the property, that the campground can be supported by private on-site well and sewage systems, and that it would not negatively impact the natural heritage of the area. It will also contribute to tourism in the surrounding area (e.g. visitors to Frontenac Provincial Park). The scale of the proposed use would be www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 37 of 90 Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZBA-2022-0061, Frontenac Outfitters (2017), 6674 Bedford Road

appropriate with the existing nature-oriented activities offered on the site. The design of the site is sensitive to existing, neighbouring uses. The proposed campground conforms to the Recreational and Resort Commercial policies of the Township Official Plan (section 5.7.5(iii)). Specifically, the combined area of the two properties exceeds the minimum 4 hectare (10 acre) lot area, less than 50 campsites are proposed, and no campsite, building and structure will be within 50 metres of Pearkes Lake. The site would have passive waterfront and kayak/canoe launches. However, the primary recreational amenity is not the waterfront (e.g. not a beach). Therefore 15 metres of usable shoreline per site is not required. The primary destination for users of the site is Frontenac Provincial Park. A site-specific RRC zone would permit the existing outfitters business as well as a tourist establishment (campground) consisting of 12 tent sites and accessory buildings and uses. Should the zoning by-law amendment be approved by Council, the subject properties would be subject to site plan control. Site plan control would be used to address matters such as placement of campsites and accessory buildings, maintenance of natural vegetation, restrictions on tree clearing, and signage.

Public Meeting for Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2022-0125, Moreland, 3195 Sunbury Road

Summary This report provides Council with information about Zoning By-law Amendment Application PL-ZBA-2022-0125 for 3195 Sunbury Road. If approved, the zone on a portion of the subject lands on Battersea Road would be changed from Urban Residential – First Density (UR1) to a property specific Urban Residential – First Density (UR1-XX). Consistent with Council’s Procedural By-law, Council will receive comments from the public on the application. Staff will bring a more detailed report considering applicable policy and public comments, as well as providing a recommendation to Council on this application at a future meeting.

Recommendation This report is for information only.

Background The subject property is subject to consent application S-77-21-S for a new residential lot. Provisional approval of the consent application was granted subject to conditions by the Committee of Adjustment on March 10, 2022. One condition requires the severed parcel to be rezoned. The proposal is to change the zone on the severed parcel from Urban Residential – First Density (UR1) to a property specific Urban Residential – First Density (UR1-XX). This change would permit the severed parcel to have a minimum 0.6 hectare (1.5 acre) lot area whereas a minimum 0.8 hectare (2 acre) lot area is generally required. Under the Planning Act, a public meeting is required to be held to receive comments from the public on the proposed rezoning. The public meeting for the application will be a virtual public meeting using Zoom and telephone.

Discussion/Analysis Property Description The subject property is located in the Sunbury settlement area. It has frontage on Sunbury Road and Battersea Road. The property is approximately 35.6 hectares (88 acres) in area. It consists of farmland and forest. There is a single detached dwelling along the Sunbury Road frontage. The severed parcel (the lands to be rezoned) would consist of 0.6 hectares (1.5 acres) of vacant land, and have 133 metres of frontage on Battersea Road. These lands slope from the rear lot line to the road. Attachment 1 to this report shows the location of the subject property relative to local landmarks. Department and Agency Comments Building Services was not circulated the rezoning application as they had no objection to the consent application. They had indicated that the severed parcel would be capable of providing flexibility in siting a sewage system. Public Services was not circulated the rezoning application as they had no objection to the consent application. They had indicated that there are adequate sight lines for an entrance for the severed parcel. They had observed a low point at the south corner of the lot which causes excess water to pool at the ditch and onto the property. They indicated that, should the lot be created, a lot grading and drainage plan would be required prior to any site development to ensure that any development on the property does not result in negative impacts to adjacent properties and that water is redirected away from the proposed location of the house. Public Comments No comments were received from the public on the rezoning application. Preliminary Planning Analysis The proposed rezoning needs to be assessed against the applicable policies of the Provincial Policy Statement 2020, County of Frontenac Official Plan, and Township of South Frontenac Official Plan, as well as the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2003-75. The subject lands are located in Sunbury, which is a designated Settlement Area. In accordance with the Provincial Policy Statement 2020 and the County of Frontenac Official Plan, the Township of South Frontenac Official Plan intends for a majority of new growth to www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 42 of 90 Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-ZBA-2022-0125, Moreland, 3195 Sunbury Road

be directed to existing settlement areas where it can be supported by appropriate servicing. Residential development of the severed parcel would be compatible with existing, similar residential uses along Battersea Road. Section 5.6.1 (ii)(b) of the Township Official Plan states that the minimum lot area for lots shall not be less than 0.8 hectares (2 acres) when serviced by a private well and private sanitary sewage system. The land division policies (Section 7.1) echo the requirement for minimum lot areas. The UR1 zone also requires a minimum 0.8 hectare (2 acre) lot area. The applicant proposed a 0.78 hectare (1.95 acre) lot, as they intend for the rear lot line to be aligned with that of the properties immediately to the north and south. The survey that was prepared as a condition of consent approval determined that the lot area is 0.6 hectares (1.5 acres). The lot area of the severed parcel does not comply with the minimum lot area requirements of the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law. The Township Official Plan requires a minimum 0.8 hectare lot area to ensure adequate separation distances between wells and sewage systems so that groundwater quality is not impacted, to avoid an overdeveloped appearance, and to help ensure a reasonable separation between residential uses. Private wells and sewage systems are the only servicing option in Sunbury. The Township must be satisfied that any new lot created by consent can be serviced by a sewage disposal facility and adequate water supply. Building Services was satisfied that the severed parcel has flexibility to locate a sewage disposal system. The Township typically requires the ability to be serviced by a private well to be demonstrated as a condition of consent approval. Lesser lot areas are generally only considered through a plan of subdivision in which lot creation is typically supported by a hydrogeological assessment and terrain analysis that demonstrates that there would be no adverse impacts to groundwater quality and quantity for the proposed lot and the existing development in the area. The severed parcel was created through a consent not a subdivision, therefore no study was required nor completed. Staff had recommended that the Committee of Adjustment deny the consent application. The less than 0.8 hectare (2 acre) lot area does not conform to the Township Official Plan and Zoning By-law. In addition, the subject property is sufficiently large to create a severed parcel that meets or exceeds the minimum 0.8 hectare (2 acre) lot area requirement. Staff note that Section 5.6.1 of the Township Official Plan does suggest that the minimum lot area could be changed subject to the approval of Council. This approval would come in the form of a zoning by-law amendment to permit the severed parcel to have a lesser lot area. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

To: Council Prepared by: Public Services Department Date of Meeting: October 4, 2022 Subject: Speed Limit Changes – New Firehall at 4490 Battersea Road

Summary The purpose of this report is to initiate speed zone changes on Battersea Road in support of the new Station 8 Firehall on Battersea Road.

Recommendation That Council approve the staff recommendation for the implementation of a new 60km/hr speed limit on Battersea Road from Millburn Road to a location approximately 650m to the north. And that Council direct staff to prepare an amendment to the Roads, Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2000-01 to incorporate the proposed speed limit change.

Background On September 17th, 2021, the Director of Development Services presented the report on the Zoning By-law amendment to change the land use designation of the new fire station property from Quarry ‘B’ – Special Provision (QB-2) to Community Facility – Special Provision (CF-7). The referenced zoning bylaw change was otherwise enacted to permit the development of the new fire station located at 4490 Battersea Road. The staff report relating to the zoning changes included summaries of the comments received from various departments and external agencies. Comments provided by the Public Services Department at that time had expressed concern about site access and are outlined below: “Comments provided by Public Services staff included in the August 17, 2021 Public Meeting report indicated that the sight distances did not meet the required distances for the posted 80km/hr speed limit. It was indicated that the entrances shown on the conceptual Landscape Plan will need to be adjusted to more closely comply with the minimum sight distances specified in the Roads Byl-law. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 59 of 90 Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - Speed Limit Changes – New Firehall at 4490 Battersea Road

Further investigation regarding site access from the site to Battersea Road has occurred since the public meeting. Additional comments were provided by Township Public Services staff on September 15 and 16, 2021. These comments indicate that the new “non-emergency” entrance for regular car/truck traffic will be required to be located towards the north end of the property along Battersea Road. The access will be south of the berms that form part of the aggregate license on the property. Safe sight lines can be provided for this entrance if the traffic speed along this section of road is reduced to 60km/hr. The reduction of the speed limit in this location will be considered in consultation with property owners in the immediate area. Establishing safe sight-lines for non-emergency traffic will also require some removal of trees along the side of Battersea Road and at the entrance of the cemetery. The Township proposes to plant new trees around the Fire Hall to compensate for the trees that must be removed to ensure safe sight lines. The existing field entrance to the site will be removed. The emergency vehicle entrance to the fire hall will be signed and will require a flashing beacon to be established on Battersea Road to warn traffic of emergency vehicles entering the road. The aspect of site design will be overseen by Township Public Services staff.”

Discussion/Analysis The prescribed safe sight distances for Commercial (non-residential) entranceways under Bylaw 2000-01 are 230m for a posted speed of 80km/hr. This distance reduces to 180m comparatively for a posted speed limit of 60km/hr. Public Services staff evaluated pre-existing entranceways in the area at the cemetery and the Gilbert Quarry (G. Tackaberry & Sons) and confirmed that in all cases the 230m sight distances were not present. It was apparent that the introduction of a new 60km/hr zone in this area would therefore offer safety benefits for not only the new Fire Hall site but also the adjacent uses in the area. In June of 2022, staff reached out to Tackaberry to discuss proposed speed limit changes to 60km/hr along Battersea Road. Through these discussions Tackaberry offered support for the speed changes and acknowledged the benefits to the slow-moving heavy truck traffic regularly entering and exiting the Gilbert Quarry. Staff have reviewed the stopping sight distances for all three entrances in the area and have confirmed that the new 60km/hr zone would commence north of Millburn Road and extend approximately 650m northerly from that point. A copy of the speed zone details are included as Attachment A. Staff are therefore recommending that Council support he speed

zone changes as presented as they remain consistent with discussions throughout the redesignation of the new fire hall site.

Financial Implications The estimated costs for labour and material to supply and install the new speed limit signs along the road is expected to be approximately $1,100 which will be covered under the operating budget for roads.

To: Council Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: October 4, 2022 PL-RAC-2022-0120 (Sutherland) – Application to request to stop up, close and transfer portions of unopened road Subject: allowance between Lot 20 and 21, Concession 2, District of Bedford.

Summary An application has been received by Development Services Staff to request to stop up, close and transfer a portion of unopened road allowance between Lot 20 and 21, Concession 2, District of Bedford.

Recommendation That Council direct staff to not proceed with the process of stopping up, closing and transferring ownership of a portion of the unopened road allowance between Lot 20 and 21, Concession 2, Bedford.

Background Staff have received an application requesting that a portion of the unopened road allowance be stopped up closed and transferred to the abutting lands known as 2532 Green Bay Road, location map Attachment #1. The road allowance proposed to be stopped up, closed and transferred runs from east to west along the northern lot line of the parcel municipally known as 2532 Green Bay Road. The portion of the unopened road allowance that is proposed to be stopped up, closed and transferred commences at the west side of the parcel at the intersection of Buckert Lane and Green Bay Road and ends on the east in a small bay that is part of Bobs Lake. There are several small parcels that are abutting the road allowance to the north, all of which are waterfront properties and addressed on Buckert Lane. The applicant has requested that this portion of the road allowance be stopped up, closed and transferred to the abutting lands at 2532 Green Bay Road. The request was submitted as the land owner / applicant thought that they already owned pieces of the unopened road allowance and was under the assumption that they were the owner of the land in question.

Additionally, the landowner/applicant has indicated that they do not want the land to be sold to someone else without their knowledge. Staff explained to the applicant that notice would be provided if the unopened road allowance were to be sold. The applicant believes that the unopened road allowance to the east of the small bay has historically been stopped up, closed and transferred to the abutting properties. A title search was completed for one of the properties that shows a portion of unopened road allowance in the legal description. Staff confirm that a by-law has never been passed to stop up, close and transfer this portion of land, and the legal description is qualified by the municipalities interest in the road allowance and does not give legal title to the property. This means that the property for which the title search was conducted does not legally own the un-opened road allowance.

Discussion/Analysis Staff feel that the closure and transfer of this portion of unopened road allowance does not align with the existing practice and decisions of Council as the road allowance leads directly from a public road to a body of water. Typically, in this type of situation an application to stop up, close and transfer an unopened road allowance are denied in order to continue to provide public access. The topography of the road allowance is gently sloping or flat with some low-lying wetland areas, however, the portion that meets the water is rocky but is accessible by foot. Planning staff have consulted with Public Services staff who also feel that this road allowance could qualify as direct public access from a Township owned road to a waterbody.

Financial Implications The application fee and legal deposit has been paid by the applicant to process this road closing application.

To: Council Prepared by: Development Services Department Date of Meeting: October 4, 2022 RC-21-03 (5006755 Ontario Ltd.) (Beach - Agent) – Application to stop up, close and transfer a portion of unopened road Subject: allowance between former Townships Portland and Loughborough.

Summary An application has been received by Development Services Staff requesting to stop up, close and transfer a portion of unopened road allowance between former Townships Portland and Loughborough.

Recommendation THAT Council deny the request in the application of the road closure which included a 20.12 (66 foot) metre by 182.87 metre (600 foot) portion of the road allowance. AND further that staff recommend that Council approve in principle, to stop up, close and transfer ownership of a portion of unopened road allowance over which the existing dwelling encroaches, and an additional three-foot buffer; AND FURTHER it being understood that a subsequent report containing a By-law will be presented to Council for approval following the receipt of the revised survey.

Background The subject road allowance is aligned from north to south, running from New Morin Road to Knowlton Lake Road. The southerly portion of the road allowance, consisting of approximately 765 metres is open and Knowlton Lake Road runs along this portion. The road allowance is the boundary line between the former Townships of Portland and Loughborough. New Morin Road follows the road allowance that meets the subject road allowance before New Morin Road takes a turn to the west and becomes a forced road wrapping around the property municipally known as 5356 New Morin Road. New Morin Road ends at the intersection to the south where it meets Vanluven Road, Attachment #1, location map. An application was brought before Council for a Public Meeting on August 9th, 2022. Township Staff consulted with Public Services prior to the Public Meeting. Public Notice www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

was delivered by mail, posted on the website, posted in the Frontenac News and posted on the property in accordance with the Township notice policy. Several letters of concern from neighbouring landowners were received. Members of Council also expressed concern with respect to closing the entire unopened road allowance. During the Public Meeting, Council suggested that a closure and transfer of the portion of road allowance over which the dwelling encroaches as well as an additional three-foot buffer may be supported rather than the entirety of the road allowance as proposed in the Application. Planning staff met with the Agent following the Public Meeting to discuss how the matter would move forward now that Council had heard the concerns of the public and expressed their own concerns. The agent requested that this application be brought back to Council for a decision. Discussion/Analysis Planning staff acknowledge that there is a historic encroachment of the dwelling on the property onto the unopened road allowance. The owner of the property has an existing Encroachment Agreement with the Township to recognize the encroachment of the dwelling. However, Encroachment Agreements are not transferred to new owners and therefore are a temporary solution to the encroachment onto the unopened road allowance. Staff acknowledge that Council is not supportive of the closure and transfer of the originally requested 20.12 (66 foot) metre by 182.87 metre (600 foot) portion of the road allowance. Staff are recommending that Council approve, in principle, the stop up, closure and transfer of the portion of the road allowance over which the dwelling encroaches plus a three-foot buffer. This will provide a long-term solution and establish a clean title for any subsequent owners of the property and the Township. If Council approves this recommendation, the Applicant and Agent will be required to amend the survey that was prepared in anticipation of approval of the original request. The new survey will show the encroachment lands plus a three-foot buffer and is required prior to Council approving a by-law so that Township Staff can accurately describe the portions of the unopened road allowance to be transferred. Once the survey has been prepared and deposited, the revised request will come back to Council for the passing of a by-law, at this time a purchase price will also be established based on the square footage determined by the surveyor. Staff have reached out to the Agent regarding the recommendation, and it is anticipated that he will be requesting to speak to Council as a Delegation.

Financial Implications The application fee and legal deposit has been paid by the applicant to process this road closing application. The final purchase price will be determined once the survey has been finalized with respect to the portion being purchased and the survey is deposited and comprehensively reviewed by Planning Staff. Fees to survey the road allowance are to be paid by the applicant.

PL-EA-2022-0135 (Dumbleton) – Encroachment Agreement Request

Summary An application has been received to request an Encroachment Agreement to recognize the existing encroachment of an accessory building, being a detached garage and the existing driveway over Township owned lands.

Recommendation It is recommended that By-law 2022-92 authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to enter into an Encroachment Agreement with Judy and Mike Dumbleton for the purposes of recognizing the existing encroachment onto the Township Lands known as Block B, Plan 1597; Buckley Drive, be passed.

Background An application has been received by staff requesting an encroachment agreement for the existing garage and shed located on Township owned Block B, Plan 1597. The applicants who own 3475 Buck Point Lane recently had a survey prepared in anticipation of a request for a Minor Variance at the property. It was discovered that the lands that the former owners of the property built the garage and shed on are not part of 3475 Buck Point Lane, but Block B on Plan 1597, owned by the Township, location map Attachment #1.

Discussion/Analysis The lands, being Block B on Plan 1597 are part of a historic subdivision. Block B was to be Buckley Drive and the legal description states this. The lands being Block B, over which Buck Point Lane travel are Township owned, but the lane is not maintained by the municipality. Township staff have asked the applicants to ensure the encroachment matter is recognized prior to moving forward with an application for a Minor Variance for the deck on the home. www.southfrontenac.net Natural, Vibrant and Growing – a Progressive, Rural Leader.

Page 75 of 90 Township of South Frontenac Staff Report - PL-EA-2022-0135 (Dumbleton) – Encroachment Agreement Request

The property is developed with a home, a detached garage and a shed, attachment #2 is an aerial photo showing the encroachment of the garage and the driveway. Planning staff have spoken with the Municipal solicitor, and it was noted that an encroachment agreement was the easiest way to recognize the encroachment. The by-law prepared will be registered on title to the benefitting property with the Agreement to be registered as a schedule to the By-Law, attachment #3 by-law and attachment #4, Encroachment Agreement. Nothing will be registered on title to the unopened road allowance.

Financial Implications The application fee has been paid by the applicant. The applicant will be responsible for all legal fees, including the cost to register the by-law and agreement on title.
