The purpose of the meeting is to hear public comment on a Zoning By-law amendment application for a 1232 square metre (13,261 square foot) property situated on the west side of Shawnee Road, approximately 31 metres (102 feet) north of its intersection with Brouillette Court (1441 Shawnee Road). The purpose of the proposed amendment is to:

  1. Rezone the western 613.1 square metre (6,600 square foot) portion of the subject property from “Residential
    Zone 2 (R2)” to a site-specific “Residential Zone 3 (R3-20)” to permit the construction of one semi-detached
    dwelling and to establish minimum lot and yard requirements; and
  2. Rezone the eastern 609.8 square metre (6,564 square foot) portion of the subject property from “Residential
    Zone 2 (R2)” to a site-specific “Residential Zone 2 (R2-26)” to establish a new minimum lot area.

The subject property is designated “Residential” in the Tecumseh Official Plan.

The Manager Planning Services highlights the report as appended to the agenda.   He describes the subject property and surrounding area and notes their is an existing residential dwelling on the property.  In May, the Committee of Adjustment granted provisional consent to create a severed lot and the creation of a service easement for stormwater. The Manager explains the property's current zoning classification and the proposed rezoning amendment for consideration.

In response to an inquiry on the stormwater service being provided from Shawnee Road to the new lot fronting Brouillette Court, the Manager Engineering Services outlines there is no storm sewer on this section of Brouillette Court resulting in the need to drain this property to the Shawnee Road storm sewer.  

Re: 1441 Shawnee Road 

Mr. Ferlaino is joined by Mr. Zhu and explains the suitability of the proposed construction of a semi-detached dwelling in the area.
