As the city filed it

City Council, at its meeting on July 19, 2022, adopted Item 2022.EY33.8, approving a Zoning By-law amendment for the lands located at 337-349 Queens Drive to allow for the construction of 20 townhouses and eight semi-detached homes. The Bills were held pending the applicant satisfactorily addressing the requirements of Engineering and Construction Services and Transportation Services. During the review of the Site Plan Control application for 337-349 Queens Drive, staff identified two regulations that were inadvertently omitted from the draft Zoning By-law Amendment attached to Item EY33.8 that are necessary to permit the proposed development.

The first new regulation is a requirement that the front deck be no more than 1.3 metres above grade (the underlying zoning provision requires the deck to be no more than 1.2 metres above grade); this was identified in the diagrams attached to the final report. The second new regulation permits a minimum separation distance of 2.2 metres between main walls of the same townhouse structure. Other revisions are minor and technical in nature. None of the proposed revisions involve any changes to the scale or design of the development and the overall proposal, has not changed from the time of the original application and approval to the present. City Planning is of the opinion that the changes to the By-law, as set out in the Recommendations, are appropriate, are good planning and do not require any further public notice.
