Application for relief from Section 13.2(b) to permit a lot frontage of 15.38 metres whereas the by-law requires 19 metres, is hereby GRANTED for the following reasons: 1. The variance is minor in nature given the surrounding area; smaller lot sizes are increasingly becoming common throughout the Town, Region and Province. 2. The general purpose and intent of the Zoning By-Law is maintained as it includes a satisfactory frontage for access purposes and for siting a new dwelling. 3. The intent of the Official Plan is maintained as it will help facilitate the development of a continuous street frontage along Pelham Street by “filling-in” empty, underutilized urban lots within the built-up area. 4. The proposal is desirable for the appropriate development and/or use of the land as it will recognize the frontage shortfall and give legal status to develop the plot for residential infill use. 5. This application is granted without prejudice to any other application in the Town of Pelham. 6. The Committee of Adjustment considered the written and oral comments and agrees with the minor variance report analysis and recommendation that this application meets the Planning Act tests for minor variance.

The variance is minor in nature as the surrounding neighbourhood context which consists of both large and small lot single detached residences. 2. The general purpose and intent of the Zoning By-Law is maintained as it still leaves adequate room for open space intentions, distance between buildings and storm water runoff without unduly affecting any neighbours. 3. The intent of the Official Plan is maintained as it will promote infill housing and help develop the land more efficiently. 4. The proposal is desirable for the appropriate development and/or use of the land as for the use of the land because it allows for more design flexibility in siting a bungalow style dwelling while still providing acceptable rear yard amenity space. 5. This application is granted without prejudice to any other application in the Town of Pelham. 6. No objections were received from commenting agencies or abutting property owners. 7.
