Item - 2018.TE32.92

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council request the City Solicitor and appropriate City staff to attend the hearing at the Toronto Local Appeal Body regarding Application A1356/17TEY for 62 Chester Hill Road to ensure that any approval of any of the minor variances requested, as amended, are made subject to the conditions outlined in the report (April 6, 2018) from the Acting Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

The applicant applied to the Committee of Adjustment (Application A1356/17TEY) for the

property at 62 Chester Hill Road to seek minor variances from Zoning By-laws 569-2013 and 438-86 to alter the existing two-storey detached dwelling by constructing a third-storey addition (the "Application").

In their report of April 6, 2018, Planning Staff did not oppose the proposed variances, subject to a number of requested conditions of any approval by the Committee of Adjustment relating to a reduction of the height of the exterior main wall and a condition tying any approval to the plans submitted with the Application. The Applicant amended its application to address Planning Staff's recommendations. At its hearing on April 11, 2018, the Committee of Adjustment refused the Application.

Copies of the Notices of Decision and Staff Report are attached.

The applicant has appealed the Committee of Adjustment's decision to the Toronto Local

Appeal Body.
