Page 4 of 11

Page 5 of 28

Committee of Adjustment Meeting Minutes March 7, 2017

approximately 2 acres (vacant land) from 37 acres. The retained parcel is vacant land. This application has been submitted in conjunction with Zoning Amendment Application C03/2017. The purpose of the application is for the creation of one new lot, being approximately 2 acres in size. The proposed severed parcel has the historic remains of the original residential dwelling. The subject lands are designated as Prime Agriculture in the Official Plan. Zoning is a combination of Agricultural and Environmentally Sensitive within the Trent Hills Zoning By-law.

With respect to Prime Agricultural Lands, the Trent Hills Official Plan states the following:

Section 2.4.2.2.5: Within the Prime Agricultural Lands the fragmentation of agricultural parcels of land and the creation of non- viable farm operations will not be permitted. The creation of parcels of land for agriculture and farm-related uses of less than 40 hectares shall not be permitted. Non-farm severances of the agricultural land base will not be permitted, with the exception of an existing farm dwelling rendered surplus as a result of the consolidation of two or more farm parcels.

Furthermore, with respect to Prime Agricultural Lands, the Provincial Policy Statement states the following:

Section 2.3.4.1 Lot creation in prime agricultural areas is discouraged and may only be permitted for:

c) A residence surplus to a farming operation as a result of farm consolidation, provided that:

1. the new lot will be limited to a minimum size needed to accommodate the use and appropriate

sewage and water services; and

2. the planning authority ensures that new residential dwellings are prohibited on any remnant

parcel of farmland created by the severance.

As noted, the historic remains of the original residential dwelling are located on the proposed severed parcel. The property is currently eligible for a residential building permit. If the severance is granted, the Provincial Policy Statement also states that due to the Prime Agricultural designation, the balance of the lands are to be protected from future residential use. Therefore, if the Consent is approved, it should be with the condition to rezone the retained portion to Agricultural Exception (*) to prohibit future residential development. The applicants have submitted this zoning amendment application in conjunction with the severance application. Planning staff have met with the applicants to discuss the application, and review the requirements. Furthermore, the Notice of Public Meeting has been circulated to the public in the appropriate manner, as well as to the required outside agencies and municipal departments.The process to consider consent applications is being carried out in accordance with the process as set out in the Planning Act.

The policies within the Official Plan permit the consideration of the creation of a limited number of rural residential lots. Consideration is to be given to the proposed use of the lot, the topography of the lot and the general pattern of development in the area. The proposed severed parcels will be eligible for a residential building permit, serviced by an individual well and septic system, with access off the 10th Line West.

The applicant has submitted a zoning amendment application in conjunction with the severance applications. The Zoning Amendment proposes to rezone the severed portions to Rural Residential.
