OVERVIEW AND STAFF COMMENTS
This report details the rezoning application to legalize an
existing secondary suite use at the property located at 8403
Charman Street by rezoning to Urban Residential 465 Secondary
Dwelling (R465s) Zone and identifies the necessary amendments to
the Zoning Bylaw. Staff supports the application moving forward and
as such have listed the Zoning Amending Bylaw 5778-2018-5050(312)
for approval under the ‘Bylaws for Consideration’ section of the
Council agenda. Subject to Council’s approval, a Public Hearing
will be scheduled for September 4, 2018.
SUMMARY
A rezoning application has been received from Rumandeep and
Amandeep Sidhu seeking to legalize an existing secondary suite
located at 8403 Charman Street (Appendix 2). To legalize the
secondary suite in the home, a rezoning of the property from Urban
Residential 465 (R465) Zone to the Urban Residential 465 Secondary
Dwelling (R465s) Zone is required. If approved, the applicant will
need to obtain a building permit to ensure that the suite meets the
BC Building Code requirements. The rezoning application is not due
to a bylaw complaint.
SITE CHARACTERISTICS
The subject property is currently designated Urban Residential
in the Official Community Plan (OCP) and is zoned Urban Residential
465 (R465). The property is approximately 560 square metres (6,027
square feet) in size, which exceeds the minimum lot size of 465
square metres (5,005 square feet) in the proposed R465s Zone. The
subject property is located on the northwest corner of Charman
Street and Cherry Avenue in the Cedar Valley neighbourhood.
Further, the property is currently developed with a single family
dwelling.
PLANNING ANALYSIS:
Official Community Plan & Zoning Bylaw Compliance:
The proposed secondary suite is 67.91 square metres (731 square
feet) which is less than the maximum allowance of 90 square metres
(968.8 square feet) permitted under the Zoning Bylaw. The applicant
has supplied a site plan that shows an unobstructed parking stall
and a floor plan that shows a separate entrance for the suite, both
of which are requirements of the Zoning Bylaw. A site plan showing
the parking pad location is attached as Appendix 3.
The Inspection Services Division will ensure that the proposed
secondary suite meets all of the BC Building Code requirements,
including fire separation, during the building permit review and
plan check process.
The proposed rezoning conforms to Section 2.3 Housing Choice and
Quality and Section 2.4 Infill Residential, which both support
single family residences with secondary dwelling units such as
secondary suites. The OCP also supports secondary suites as it
provides affordable and rental housing within the District.

STAFF REPORT TO COUNCIL Page 3 of 7
Neighbourhood Character:
The subject property is located within an urban residential
neighbourhood comprised of single family dwellings. Lands to the
north and west are designated Urban Residential in the OCP and
within the R465 Zone, and are developed with single family homes.
Lands to the east and south are designated Urban Compact in the
OCP, however, currently they are within the Suburban 36 (S36) Zone
and are developed with single family homes on larger lots.
Since the property is located on a corner site, it is believed
that the rezoning of this property to allow for a secondary suite
will have minimal impact on the surrounding neighbourhood.
Typically, complaints that arise from secondary suites relate to
inadequate off-street parking. As noted, this proposal meets the
off-street parking requirements of the Zoning Bylaw.
Servicing:
Domestic Water: Municipal water is available on Charman Street.
Connection to the municipal system is required. According to the
service record card, the property has an existing 19 mm (PE)
service connection that was installed in June 2007. If the
development meets the criteria set out in the Fire Sprinkler Bylaw
5679-2017, the applicant will also be required to sprinkler the
existing home which will necessitate the installation of a new and
adequately sized water service complete with a new meter (likely
38mm). This in turn will require the existing water service at the
District’s main to be capped. These works would be completed by the
District at the developer’s expense and will be determined at the
building permit stage. Refer to the District’s Development and
Subdivision Control Bylaw 5650-2017, Section 3.
Storm Sewer: Municipal storm sewer is available on Charman
Street. Connection to the municipal system is required. No upgrades
required.
Sanitary Sewer: Municipal sanitary sewer is available on Bailey
Place. Connection to the municipal system is required. No upgrades
required.
Road Work: Charman Street provides paved access to the site. No
upgrades required.
COMMUNICATION:
In accordance with Land Use Application Procedures and Fees
Bylaw 3612-2003, the developer has posted one (1) development
notification sign on the site summarizing the proposed
development.
Provided that a public hearing date is determined by
Council:
1. The development notification sign will be modified to
advertise the Public Hearing details (i.e.,date, time and place)
and a notice will be mailed to the owners and occupiers of all
propertieswithin a radius of 152 metres (500 feet) from the
development site notifying them of the PublicHearing details.

LAN.50 – Pre-Public Hearing Information Package).

Engineering:
The Engineering Department has no objections to the project.
REQUIRMENT(S) PRIOR TO FINAL READING:

the following have been satisfied: 1. Any requirements resulting
from Council’s consideration of the bylaw including public
hearing.

From: Paul [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: August 24, 2018 9:25
AM To: General Inquiries Subject: Rezoning application for 8403
Charman Street
Hi,
I am a resident of 8452 Charman Street. My name is Gurkirpal
singh Herar (Paul). I do NOT SUPPORT the Rezoning Application
R18-013 of 8403 Charman Street for the following reasons.
1. On this property there are big trucks parked on the side of
the property.2. They have small kids they play in the front of the
house which is dangerous when you turn into
Charman Street from cherry there is a blind spot. They ride
there bikes on Charman street.3. Charman Street is not wide enough
in the corner, if they park cars it will be dangerous and
someone will get hurt.4. It will make Charman Street very
busy.5. There are enough people already living in this property
The house next to mine with lots of bricks outside now have 3
Adults living in the basement. They now have 4 cars 2 are parked in
the drive way if there is a spot and 2 are parked on the street.
The 3th person just moved in.
This makes the street very busy and very hard to get and out of
my driveway.
For the above reasons I do not support this by law
application.
