The proposed new access road would be sited to permit the future completion of a cul-de-sac when adjacent areas are subdivided. The proposal also indicates the usage of an un~-opened lane allowance along the aortherm property line of 3474 Hastings Street. Closure of thia lane and inclusion of ite full width into the propoged subdivigion is required so that the new lots ineet the minimum lot depth of the RS-2 zoning regulations, FROM OTHER DEPLQUENTSs Engineering Department: All services required as per Subdivision Bylaw. Existing 200mm. diameter storm on Hastings Street may require upsizing. Exieting 200mm diemeter water on Nastings Street. Existing 200mm. diameter sanitary on Hastings Street, 2m deep. Fire Department: Approve turn-around at end of atreet. Confirm water eupply in area before construction starts. Parks & Recreation Department: Park DCC charges. Building Department and R.C.M.P.:; No comments. DISCUSSION s The applicants are congidering a road exchange to close the existing lane adjacent to the north property line of 3474 Hastings Street and have it incorporated into the subdivision. However, owners of four properties on Kitchener Avenue which are algo adjacent to the lane (2438, 2450, 2468, 2484 Kitchener Avenue), are petitioning to have the lane closed so that they may purchase half of the lane width for consolidation with their own properties. Should the latter occur, the subdivision plan would have to be modified to the satisfaction of the Approving Officer. Variances in lot depth would have to be granted for Lots 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 as they would not meet the lot depth requirements without the full depth of the lane. The subdivision plan proposes a duplex to be located at 34664 Hastings Street adjacent to the new access toad. The Planning Department does not support a duplex at thie location aa there is another duplex less than 190 metres away. Lots 2 and 3 of the proposed subdivision are shown to be deficient in lot depth by 5.25 metres and 0.87 metres respectively. A Development Variance Permit ia therefore being requested to relax the mindisum lot depth for these two lots. cont. page 3
