Application for relief of Section 6.1 (c) to allow a height of 5.95m whereas 3.7m is allowed, to construct a detached accessory garage, is hereby GRANTED. The above decision is based on the following reasons: 1. The variance is minor in nature given the rural context and the structure is oriented in a way which ensures it appears secondary to the primary dwelling. 2. The general purpose and intent of the Zoning By-Law is maintained. 3. The intent of the Official Plan is maintained. 4. The proposal is desirable for the appropriate development and/or use of the land as the variance will allow for enhanced personal usage and storage. 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. 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.
