1. Application No. MV06-2025, public meeting to be held during special Committee of Adjustment meeting

Location of the property: 36-40 Deer Ridge Ln., Bayfield

Purpose and effect

The purpose of this Minor Variance application is to reduce the interior side yard setback to allow more space for the proposed dwelling and septic systems.

Section 26.9.9.b stipulates that in an area zoned R2-9 that contains a multiple-unit dwelling, a 3 metre interior side yard setback is required on the unattached side.

The variance seeks to vary Section 26.9.9.b to permit a 1.5 metre interior side yard setback on the unattached side of a multiple-unit dwelling, whereas the by-law permits a minimum of 3 metres.

Official Plan Designation: Residential

Zoning: Residential Medium Density - R2-9
