The builder’s Agent provided the attached notice, inviting comments on this proposal.
Of note:
This proposal is for a semi-detached. This is a large lot at 50′ X 130′ (15.24 m X 39.68 m). The builder plans deeper-than-required front and rear yard setbacks. Before the Infill-2 By-law provisions came into effect, the allowable height in Champlain Park was 11 metres (measured to the midline of a peaked roof or the top of a flat roof) and the rear yard setback was 7.5 metres. Now, maximum allowable height has been reduced to 8.5 metres and minimum rear yard setback has been increased according to a sliding scale, based on lot depth. The table below shows what is being proposed for 212 Northwestern in relation to what the By-law provisions allow.
| Champlain Park Exception 2159 | 212 Northwestern Proposed | |
| Front Yard Setback | 6 metres (20 feet) Min. | 8.32 (27.3 feet) |
| By-Law (Infill 1&2) provisions | 212 Northwestern Proposed | |
| Height (to midline of roof) | 8.5 metres (28 feet) Max. | 7.334 metres (24 feet) |
| Rear Yard Setback | 11.887 metres (39 feet) Min | 14.37 metres (47.145 feet) |
| Driveway width | 2.75 metres (9 feet) Max. | 2.74 metres (9 feet) |
Thank you,
Heather
