All those in favor. And that passes. So I need a mover and secondary to approve the agenda with the addendum. Oh, that's why I just did that. I gotta do my check marks, that's why. Do we have a mover in saying they were to confirm the minutes of the committee of adjustment meeting number 2026 - 07 held on Monday, June 15th, 2026, moved by Somnath, seconded by Ken? Are there any edits? No, okay, all in favor. And that passes. So are there any disclosures of pecuniary interest. Sing as none, there are no requests for deferral. There are no returning deferrals, differral items. So moving on to business, our first item of business in an application for permission at nine Cataraqui Street. Can I have the staff, can I have staff read this into the record. Through you, Mr. Chair, this is an application for permission at nine Cataracway Street. The file number is D13026 2026, and it is to build and expanded two unit dwelling on the approximate footprint of the previous dwelling. Okay, thank you. Do we have the applicant here today. Oh, yeah, so if you could come up to one of the, I guess you can come over here to one of the mics. So can you please state your name for the record. Paul Ho. And do you have anything we wish to add to the application. Not at. This point. No. Okay, so committee members, do we have questions for the applicant or staff. Seeing as, oh, Doug. Through you, Mr. Chair, to staff. I just wanted to ask a question on the recommended conditions. I don't understand, number five, what they're talking about road widening there. Through the chair, our development engineering group identified that we're deficient in the road right - of - way in that location. And so they've asked to take a three metre widening off the front of the property. And the applicant has been helpful so far in identifying that on their plans. Uh, so the city will ultimately take three metres from the front of the property, and they still have the balance of the property for their proposal. Through the chair, yeah, that's correct. The front three metres of the property would be city property. And by extension, if you see the concept plan, will the applicant is proposing to relocate the HOME three metres further back? That's part of the reason for the approximation of the location on the property. You're Mike's not on. Your mic's not on. So that's going to happen for the other people along that same stretch. Through the chair, the road - widings are generally taken at the time when the planning act application for property. So in time, it's entirely possible that the city would acquire equally on either side of a right - of - way to eventually get to the 20 metre right away. Okay, are there any other questions or comments? All right. So seeing, uh, so now I will open the public portion. Are there any members of the public wishing to speak to the application for permission at nine cataraqui street? Now ask for you to raise your hand if you're in the room. If anybody wishes to speak. Okay, so I'll go online. Is there anyone online wishes this week to nine cataract street? Please raise your virtual hand in zoom. Sing as none, so close the public portion. Um, so now I'll come back to the committee for a motion. Move my Ken, seconded by Councillor Sanic. Um, is there any discussion. All those in favor. And that passes unanimously. Okay, so we'll move on to the next application, which is for permission at 102 Fraser Street. And can I have staff read this into the record? Drew, you, Mr. Chair, this is an application for permission at 102 Fraser Street. The file number is D13032 2026. And it is to allow a self - storage facility. Okay, do we have the applicant here today. Or maybe the applicants online are their agent. They're online. Okay. Okay, so can you state your name for the record. Mr. Chair. Uh, my name is Chris Pertado of CSPACE Architecture. The agent architect for this project. Um, I'm accompanied by Gregory Irons of Jim's Gate Inc. the prospective purchaser of the property. We've been working with SV planning, Inc. as well. Okay. Do you have anything to add to the application. Uh, three, Mr. Chair. I'll just lay it out quickly. Our request for zoning relief would permit the existing self - storage facility, which currently occupies approximately 1, 320 metres square of the building to expand throughout the entire structure, which is about 2, 880 metres square. The application also seeks formal recognition of the existing legal nonconforming self - storage use and permission for its expansion within the existing building. So the current use of the land were established under the M6 Industrial Zone under bylaw 8644. The current uses include an auto repair centre, a warehouse, and self - storage facility. At the time, these uses were established, Alba were permitted under the M6 zone, including the self - storage use, which was permitted as an accessory use to a permutated use. So the expansion of the self - storage used throughout the existing building. Would result in more efficient use of the property. It would consolidate the exterior signage. Architectural language established consistent operating hours for a single business and reduce overall vehicle trips, noise, odour concerns, and outdoor storage compared to the existing auto repair and warehouse uses. So these improvements would create a use that is more compatible with the surrounding area in the intended function of the lens. And retrofitting the existing building would also support its continued occupancy, minimize vacancy and make effective use of the existing infrastructure municipal services. So in conclusion, it's our opinion that establishing the self - storage use on the lens would represent a more compatible legal non - conforming use. Than the use is permitted under the URM 11 zone. And we better suited to the surrounding area. It would also reduce the traffic noise odour outdoor storage and other operational activities, minimizing potential adverse impacts upon the property, and they bring neighbouring, uh, uses and neighbours. We're thankful for the town's planning support, and we agree with the conditions listed and exhibit A. We can, uh, take any questions if you'd like. Okay, thank you. Um, do we have any members of the committee who have any questions or comments. I don't see some. Okay, so then we'll go to the members of the public. Any members of the public president wishing to speak to 102 Fraser Street. Please raise your hand. And if you're in the room. Sing as none. Alright, so online, is anybody online wishing to speak to 102 Frazier Street? Please raise your virtual hand in Zoom. Not seeing anyone. Alright, so. Now I guess we'll come back to the committee for a motion. Move by Councillo Sanic, seconded by Doug is there any discussion. Seeing SNON all in favor. And that passes. Thank you, Mr. Chair and Committee. Okay, you're welcome. Alright, so our third application is for Minor variants and consent for 271 and 275 Helen Street. And can I have staff read into the record, please? Through you, Mr. Chair, this is an application for Minor variants and consent at 271 and 275 Helen Street.

I don't know if the variance is, are the variants requested or are they just a part or are they just a part of making, when it's divided to the variance, this change, or is this a requested thing? That's my first question. Does that make sense. Yep. The second one. If the setbacks are changed, does that mean a possible height. Could be changed too for a new building. Yeah. All right.

Okay, seeing as none, so I'll go back to the applicant or staff to answer. Uh, through you, Mr. Chair, a budding properties have merged inadvertently as of June, 2022. And the purpose of the consent is to allow both properties to be separately conveyable for two separate lots. Um, in order to facilitate the consent variance is our required for both the retained and severed lot. Um, so with respect to if the variances are required or requested, um, they are required in order to, um, several the lot. Um, the setbacks, um, which include setbacks with respect to the accessory structure, architectural features, uh, interior setbacks and landscaped open space. Right now, the current zoning by law, um, the existing setbacks don't comply with the zoning bylaws. So, um, through this report and through the variances, um, we would like to, um, bring all of these, um, elements into compliance. Um, the second question is, um, will be there at BNA changes with respect to the height. Through the application and through their planning justification, that was submitted by the applicants, no new development is proposed at this time. So there will no be exterior changes, no additional developments with respect to accessory structures or so forth. Um, so no development is proposed at this time. This application is just, uh, recognise or reestablish the previous boundaries of the original lots located at 271 and 275 Helden Street. Thank you. Okay. Well, thank you. Um. So now we are at the.
