MEETING DATE:
January 29, 2015
OWNER: Tonino Dionisio Mazzoli and Palma Mazzoli FILE(S): A014/15 Location:
175 Windrose Court Ward 3, Vicinity of Rutherford Road and Weston Road
Proposal:
The Owner is requesting permission to construct a cabana and maintain a shed with the following variances:
Variance Proposed Recommended Required 1 Minimum interior
side yard setback to a cabana
0.6 m 0.6 m 1.5 m
2 Maximum height of the nearest part of the cabana roof
3.1 m 3.1 m 3.0 m
3 Minimum interior side yard setback to a storage shed
0.33 m 0.6 m 1.5 m
Official Plan:
The subject lands are designated “Low-Rise Residential” by the 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.
Comments:
The Planning Department conducted a site visit with photo documentation on December 22, 2014. The Planning Department has no objection to the proposed interior side yard setback to the cabana. The 0.6 m setback applies only to one corner of the cabana. The remainder of the cabana will maintain a setback of approximately 1.35 m. The proposed cabana is also mostly open and unenclosed, which will mitigate the impact on the adjacent properties. The Planning Department has no objection to Variance #2. The Planning Department cannot support Variance #3 as the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department has indicated that the 0.33m setback may pose drainage issues to the abutting west property. However, in consultation with the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department, they have advised that the shed can be moved to a minimum of 0.6m setback from the property line to maintain the drainage swale. Accordingly, Planning staff can support a 0.6m interior side yard setback if the Owner changes the proposal, which will also require the concrete slab of the shed to be moved and may require the swale to be reconstructed. The Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal

and recommended revised proposal to increase Variance #3 to 0.6m is minor in nature, meets the intent of the Zoning By-law, and is/is not desirable for the appropriate development of the land.
Recommendation:
The Planning Department supports Variance #1 and #2 of Minor Variance Application A014/15 and recommends that Variance #3 be revised to 0.6m.
Condition(s):
None.

The Planning Department is of the opinion that the proposal and recommended revised proposal to increase Variance #3 to 0.6m is minor in nature, meets the intent of the Zoning By-law, and is/is not desirable for the appropriate development of the land.

Location: Part of Lot 15, Concession 6 (Lot 24, Registered Plan 65M-3688)
municipally known as 175 Windrose Court, Woodbridge Proposal:
1. To permit a minimum interior side yard setback of 0.6m to cabana 2. To permit the nearest part of the cabana roof to be a maximum of
3.1m above finished grade. 3. To maintain a minimum interior side yard setback of 0.33m to the
storage shed.
By-Law Requirement:
1. Minimum interior side yard setback 1.5m (to cabana). 2. The nearest part of the roof shall not be more than 3.0m above
finished grade. 3. Minimum interior side yard setback 1.5m (to storage shed).
Comments: The Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning
Services Department staff conducted a site inspection on December 16, 2014 at 175 Windrose Court, Woodbridge in response to Minor Variance Application A014/15. Note the storage shed has been constructed at the time of inspection. The proposed cabana is located on the south side of the subject lot with 0.6m side yard setback, and it does not appear to interfere with the existing drainage pattern. Accordingly, the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department has no comments or objection to proposal no. 1. However, the proposal no. 3 to maintain a minimum interior side yard setback of 0.33 metres to the existing storage shed, it appears to pose an adverse impact on the grading and drainage pattern to the west lot line. Note the Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department requires a drainage swale to be maintained, which generally requires a minimum of 0.6m setback. Accordingly, Development Engineering and Infrastructure Planning Services Department does not support the proposal no. 3. Note photo documentation of the subject area within the lot is attached.
Conditions: None.
