The effect of this variance will be to allow a lot frontage of 20 metres (66') being the width of Best Line, where 150.0 metres (492') is the required lot frontage in the Agricultural (Al) Zone. Staff Comments The application satisfies the four "tests" of Section 45. (1) of the Planning Act for consideration of a minorvarianceapplicationasperlBlGroup'smemodatedJanuary7,2010. Staffandtheplannerdo support the variance given that the owner has historically used and will continue to use the reduced frontage on Best Line to access the farmlands. The variance is only required to recognize the loss of the legal frontage on Murray Road as a result of the consent 894109 severing the woodland portion to add to the adjacent northerly parcel. At the time of writing this report, no written concems or objections ûom the public have been received. Attachments 1. Notice of Public Meeting 2. Minor Variance Application A-03/10 3.

Memorandum Steno 91'1772 Ontario lnc. (Phillips) - Application for Consent (E94l09) - Part Lot 14, 15, Concession 9, Murray Road We have completed our review of the consent application submitted on behalf of 911772 Ontario lnc in support of a proposal to sever and convey a 19.9 hectare (49 acre) parcel of land in Part Lot 14 and 15, Concession 9, on the east side of Murray Road, south of Talbot Line. The lands to be severed are designated "Area of Natural and Scientific lnterest - ANSI's' in the Offìcial Plan and zoned Agricultural (41-A) in Zoning By-law No. 2456-2003. The A1-A Zone recognizes a minimum lot size of 40 hectares. The proposed lot addition would result in no new lots being created, while the new lot areas would be 80.1 hectares (198 acres) for the retained lot accessed from Best Line; and 41.3 hectares (102 acres) for the newly configured lot on Munay Road. The retained parcel and newly configured lot are both vacant. The severed lands are characterized as a completely wooded area that is part of the BÍg Otter Creek Life Science ANSI, which is a Provincially Significant ANSI, These lands are separated from the retained portion by a hibutary of the Big Otter Creek. The subject lands would be conveyed to the farm parcel to the north which is characterized as an open field. The retained lands are characterized as a mixture of open fields and wooded areas associated with the aforementioned ANSI. There is no proposed development associated with the consent application' Section 8.7.7 o'Í the Official Plan states that consents for 'lot adjustments, lot additions, minor boundary changes ... are permitted in any land use designation, provided the severed and retained parcels comply with the other requirements of this Plan (and) the Zoning By-lau/. The principal function of the "ANSI' designation of the Official Plan is to ¡ecognize areas of natural heritage signifìcance and protect them from incompatible development. Furthermore, Section 7.2.1. c) of the Official Plan states that Council shall discourage "development" and site alteration on or adjacent to natural heritage features or areas. lBl Group is a group of firms prov¡d¡ng professional services and ls affìliated with lBl Group Architects Staff Report D2010-20 regarding Minor Variance Application A- 03/10 911772 Ontario Inc. Page 11 of 12 lBl Group MemoÌandum Municipelity of Beyñam - January 7, 2010 While no site alteration is proposed, the definition for'development" includes the creation of new lots. While there are technically no new lots being created as part of the consent application, the Long Point Region Conservation Authority (LPRCA) and the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) should be circulated for comments to ensure they have no issues with the re-alignment of lot boundaries. 5. Provided that both of the aforementioned agencies have no issues with proposed consent, we would be able to support the consent subject to specific conditions of consent and rezoning, which would ensure the intent of the Official Plan's Natural Heritage policies are maintained. Such requirements are allowed by Section 7.2.2c) of the Official Plan and are as follows: a. That the proposed severed lands are merged on title with the lands to the north identifìed as Part 1 of RP 4603. b. That the newly configured parcel is rezoned to the A1-A Zone lo recognize its new lot area that exceeds 40 hectares. c. That the newly configured parcel includes zoning in the form of site'specifìc regulations which prohibit development or site alteration on all or a portion of the subject lands without the written consent of the LPRCA and/or the MNR. d. That the retained lands obtain a minor variance to the Zoning By-law to recognize the reduced lot frontage as a result of the consent. We would support any such variance given that the subject lands are currently accessed with the reduced frontage, and the variance is only required to recognize the loss of the legalfrontage on Murray Road. 7¿r',-l IBIGROUP Derek Dudek, MCIP, RPP Consulting Planner to the Municipality of Bayham J:\3404\468 Philips - Muray Rd\PTMph¡llipsæ10{l{7.dæ\2010{1 47\DD Staff Report D2010-20 regarding Minor Variance Application A- 03/10 911772 Ontario Inc.
