Encroachment Appeal - 56 Lambeth Road

§ 743-34. A (2) (a) [1]. 2. A picket fence measuring 1.52 metres at the front of the property within the public right-of-way that is within 70 metres of the intersection, which exceeds the maximum 1.2 metre permitted § 743-34. A (2) (a) and which does not provide a set back of three metres from the roadway. § 743-31. E (3). 3. Vegetation within the public right-of-way, that has the potential to exceed the height of 0.85 metres § 743-36. I. Although the proposed encroachments are in contravention of the requirements under Code Chapter 743, staff is of the opinion that it will not have a negative impact on the public right-of-way for pedestrians or for traffic on the affected streets. Therefore, Transportation Services is requesting authority to enter into an encroachment agreement with the property owner, subject to conditions. While not contemplated to form part of this encroachment agreement, there are existing driveway gates that do not swing towards the property which is in contravention of the requirements under Code Chapter 743, and must be changed to swing towards the property to comply with standard encroachment conditions.

Maintain the fencing, vegetation, and adequate sight lines at their own expense in good repair and a condition satisfactory to the General Manager of Transportation Services and will not make any additions or modifications to the encroachment beyond what is allowed under the terms of the Agreement. c. Accept such additional conditions as the City Solicitor or the General Manager of Transportation Services may deem necessary in the interest of the City; and d. The property owner will enter into an encroachment agreement with the City of Toronto, at the applicant's expense, and assume all liability and damages related to the encroachments.
