The applicanta own an oversize single family lot (RS-1) fronting onto
Birkshire Place.

The lot was created in July 1974 and the residence on the lot was placed
to allow for possible future subdivision.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The proposal is to subdivide the existing 1426 square meters lot into a
“new 505 square meters "Lot 1" and a 921 square meters "Remainder of Lot 432".

The minimum lot area in the RS-1 zone is 500 square meters.
VARIANCE REQUESTED:

Lot 1 will require a relaxation of minimum depth from the bylaw
requirement of 28 meters to 22.4 meters.

Remainder of Lot 432 will have a 12 meter frontage to Birkshire Place.
The minimum lot frontage in RS-l is 9 meters; however, by issuing the
Development Variance Permit the Municipal Council will be accepting part of
the side yard as front yard, and also a non-standard front yard area. (See
