Mr. Harding summarized report COA2018-018. The owners propose to construct a detached garage with a storage loft on the subject property. The storage loft would only be accessible by ladder. He cited comments from Community Services Department that had been received since the writing of the report noting no concerns. Mr. Harding clarified that there was a typographical error in the report. The year of the last amended application date should read 2018, not 2017.
The Committee questioned whether a survey was conducted that identified whether the fencing around the subject property encroached onto the municipal road allowances, and if so, why a condition had not been recommended for the owner to enter into a license agreement with the Realty Services Division. Staff advised that a survey had been conducted identifying that the fence is encroaching, but that the encroachment did not pertain to the proposal before the Committee. Staff had advised the owners that they are required to enter into a license agreement with Realty Services Division now that the encroachment is identified, and Realty Services was circulated on the application.
The Committee also asked questions pertaining to how proposed condition 2 in the staff report would be applied. Staff clarified how the condition would be applied.
Members of the Committee stated that they believed a condition requiring a license agreement was necessary to address the encroachment.
The applicant, Jordan Bress, was present, but did not speak.
