FILE(S): A099/15 Location:
195 Poetry Drive Ward 3, Vicinity of Major MacKenzie Drive and Poetry Road
Proposal:
The Owner is requesting permission for a 3 car wide garage and curb cut with the following variances:
Variance Proposed Required 1 Maximum curb-cut width 8.90m 6.0m 2 Maximum width of portion of
driveway between the street line and the street curb
8.90m 6.0m

Official Plan:
The subject lands are designated “Low-Rise Residential” by City of Vaughan Official Plan 2010 (VOP 2010), which was approved in part, by the Ontario Municipal Board on September 30, 2014. The proposal conforms to the policies of the Official Plan.
Cultural Heritage Division Comments
Cultural Heritage staff has no objection to the above noted application. The subject parcel of land lies in an area identified as a being of high archaeological potential in the City’s database of archaeological resources. No archaeological assessment is required at this time, however, future development may require an archaeological assessment. As such, the owner is advised that the following standard clauses apply: i. Should archaeological resources be found on the property
during construction activities, all work must cease and both the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport and the City of Vaughan’s Planning Department shall be notified immediately.
ii. In the event that human remains are encountered during
construction activities, the proponent must immediately cease all construction activities. The proponent shall contact the York Regional Police Department, the Regional Coroner and the Registrar of the Cemeteries Regulation Unit of the Ministry of Consumer and Business Services.
Development Planning Division Comments:
The Planning Department does not object to the proposal. Zoning By-law 1-88 permits a 9.0m driveway width on the subject property as of right. Variances #1 and #2 will permit the Owner to extend the as-of-right driveway.

Variance #3 can be supported as the driveway permits the use of 3 cars. The subject property has a frontage of 16.97m, and is wide enough to support a dwelling with a 3 car garage. The Planning Department can support Variance #4 as the front yard landscaping is minimally deficient from Zoning By-law Standards. The Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal is not minor in nature, does not meet the intent of the Zoning By-law, and is not desirable for the appropriate development of the land.
Condition(s): None. Recommendation: The Planning Department supports Minor Variance
Application A099/15.
