To: Todd Coles, Committee of Adjustment Secretary Treasurer From: Mauro Peverini, Director of Development Planning Date: June 1, 2017 Name of Owner: Riceton Holdings Ltd. & Dufferin Investment Ltd. Location: 1311 Alness Street, Unit #9 File No.(s): A174/17 Proposed Variance(s): 1. To permit an Employment Use (Catering only) in Building B, Unit 9.

By-Law Requirement(s): 1. An Employment Use is not permitted in Building B, Unit 9 (as per Exception No. 9(1353).

Official Plan: VOP 2010: "Employment Commercial Mixed-Use". The proposal conforms to the policies of the Official Plan.

Comments: The Owner is requesting permission to establish an Employment Use (Catering only) in Unit 9 of the existing building. The subject lands are zoned EM1, Prestige Employment Area and subject to site-specific exception 9(1353). The proposed use is permitted as of right in the EM1 Zone however; the site-specific zoning exception restricts the permitted uses in units 7, 8 and the subject unit 9 in the existing building. The remaining units (1-6) in the building are permitted to have Employment Uses. Development Planning staff have no concern with the application as it reestablishes a use that is consistent with the provisions of the EM1 Zone and permitted in units 1-6. The Development Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal is minor in nature, maintains the general intent and purpose of the Zoning By-law, and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land.

Recommendation:

The Development Planning Department recommends approval of the application.

Conditions of Approval: If the committee finds merit in the application, the following conditions of approval are recommended:

None

COMMENTS:

Alectra Utilities (formerly PowerStream) has received and reviewed the proposed Variance Application. This

All proposed billboards, signs, and other structures associated with the project or plan must maintain minimum clearances to the existing overhead or underground electrical distribution system as specified by the applicable standards, codes and acts referenced. In the event that construction commences, and the clearance between any component of the work/structure and the adjacent existing overhead and underground electrical distribution system violates the Occupational Health and Safety Act, the customer will be responsible for 100% of the costs associated with Alectra making the work area safe. All construction work will be required to stop until the safe limits of approach can be established. In the event construction is completed, and the clearance between the constructed structure and the adjacent existing overhead and underground electrical distribution system violates the any of applicable standards, acts or codes referenced, the customer will be responsible for 100% of Alectra’s cost for any relocation work.
