Purpose and Effect of Application for Consent and Minor Variance:
The overall purpose of this application is to retain one existing residential lot for continued residential purposes (474430 Dodge Line) and enlarge an existing residential lot (474428 Dodge Line). No new construction is proposed as part of this application.
It is proposed that an area of approximately 357.5 m2 (3,848 ft2) be severed from the subject property and added to the rear of the adjacent lot to create a larger and more regularly shaped parcel (474428 Dodge Line). The lot to be severed is currently vacant. The lot to be retained contains a detached dwelling and accessory structure (garage) which will be maintained, and the lot to be enlarged contains an existing dwelling and accessory structure (shed) which will be
maintained.
The lot to be retained is proposed to maintain the existing lot frontage of 27.5 m (90.2 ft), the existing approximate lot depth of 67.37 m (221 ft), and have an approximate lot area of 1,839.6 m2 (19,801.3 ft2).
The lot to be enlarged is proposed to maintain the existing lot frontage of 27.5 m (90.2 ft), have an increased lot depth of 67.37 m (221 ft), and have an increased lot area of approximately 1,844.5 m2 (19,854 ft2).
A minor variance is being proposed for the lot to be retained to allow for a reduced minimum lot area of 1,839.6 m2 (19,801.3 ft2) where a minimum lot area of 2,800 m2 (30,140 ft2) is required on a lot where sanitary services are not available.
The subject property is described as Part Lot 4, Concession 3 (West Oxford), Part 1, 41R-722 and Parts 2 and 3, 41R-2519 and located on the east side of Dodge Line lying between Sweaburg Road and Curry Road and is municipally known as 474430 Dodge Line.
