SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT APPEAL BOARD OFFICER’S COMMENTS (CONTINUED)

Section 641(4) of the Municipal Government Act, Chapter M-26, states despite section 685, if a decision with respect to a development permit application in respect of a direct control district

(a) is made by a council, there is no appeal to the subdivision and development appeal board, or

(b) is made by a development authority, the appeal is limited to whether the development authority following the directions of council, and if the subdivision and development appeal board finds that the development authority did not follow the directions it may, in accordance with the directions, substitute its decision for the development authority’s decision.

Section 2 of the Zoning Bylaw concerning Repeal, Enactment and Transition Procedures states the following:

2.4 Subject only to the provisions in the Municipal Government Act respecting legal non-conforming Uses and notwithstanding the effect it may have on rights, vested or otherwise, the provisions of this Bylaw govern from the Effective Date onward. In particular, no application for a Development Permit shall be evaluated under the procedural or substantive provisions of the previous Land Use Bylaw after the Effective Date, even if the application was received before the Effective Date.

2.6 Any Direct Control Districts that were in effect immediately prior to the Effective date are hereby deemed to continue in full force and effect and are hereby incorporated into Part IV of this Bylaw.

2.7 Unless there is an explicit statement to the contrary in a Direct Control District or Provision, any reference in a Direct Control District or Direct Control Provision to a land use bylaw shall be deemed to be a reference to the land use bylaw that was in effect at the time of the creation of the Direct Control District or Provision.

SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT APPEAL BOARD OFFICER’S COMMENTS (CONTINUED)

At the time of the creation of the subject DC site, the City of Edmonton Land Use Bylaw 5996 was in effect. A recent Court of Appeal decision in Parkdale-Cromdale Community League Association v. Edmonton (City), 2007 ABCA 309 concluded that Section 2.7 of the Edmonton Zoning Bylaw only applies if there is an express cross-reference in a Direct Control bylaw passed before 2001 to a provision of the old Land Use Bylaw. In the absence of an express reference in the Direct Control Bylaw to the Land Use Bylaw 5996, it does not prevail over Section 2.4 of the Edmonton Zoning Bylaw.

Section DC2.550.3(e) states that Single Detached Housing is a listed use in the DC2 Zone.

The submitted plans indicate that the Accessory Building is 4.88 metres by 4.88 metres in size, is located 3.05 metres from the (north) Side property line, 9.14 metres from the (west) Side property line, and is one Storey in Height. The Accessory Building has a flat roof and the plans show a balcony on the roof.

Under Section 685(3) of the Municipal Government Act, “no appeal lies in respect of the issuance of a development permit for a Permitted Use unless the provisions of the land use bylaw were relaxed, varied or misinterpreted.”

This application was approved by the Development Officer.

The decision of approval by the Development Officer has been appealed by an adjacent property owner.

Accessory means, when used to describe a Use or building, a Use or building naturally or normally incidental, subordinate, and exclusively devoted to the principal Use or building, and located on the same lot or Site (Land Use Bylaw, Section 9.1(2); Zoning Bylaw Section 6.1(2)).

SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT APPEAL BOARD OFFICER’S COMMENTS (CONTINUED)

Included under “Comments” in the Sustainable Development Department POSSE System dated February 16, 2012, the Development Officer has provided the following information:

Zoning: DC2.550

There are no regulations governing accessory buildings in this zone and no site coverage limitations. However the building maintains the "yard" requirements in the regulations.

A review of the Restrictive Covenant (supplied by the applicant) confirms that the building is located within Area "C" in which there is to be no "development." Jamie Johnson [legal counsel] has confirmed that this cannot preclude the issuance of a Development Permit and that it is strictly a matter between the parties of the agreement.

The following permit applications are listed in the Sustainable Development Department POSSE system:

DEVELOPMENT OFFICER’S DECISION (CONTINUED)

An approved Development Permit means that the proposed development has been reviewed against the provisions of this bylaw.

SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT APPEAL BOARD OFFICER’S COMMENTS

This application is to construct an addition to a Single Detached House and to construct interior and exterior alterations (additions to the front attached Garage, addition to the front of house and replace exterior cladding).

The site is located on the west side of Marlboro Road, west of Fairway Drive and is zoned RF1 Single Detached Residential Zone, Section 110 of the Edmonton Zoning Bylaw 12800. The site is within the Mature Neighbourhood Overlay, Section 814.

NOTE:Single Detached Housing is a Permitted Use in the RF1 Single Detached Residential Zone, Section 110.2(4).

Under Section 7.2(9), Single Detached Housing means development consisting of a building containing only one Dwelling, which is separate from any other Dwelling or building. Where a Secondary Suite is a Permitted or Discretionary Use Class in a Zone, a building which contains Single Detached Housing may also contain a Secondary Suite. This Use Class includes Mobile Homes which conform to Section 78 of this Bylaw.

The current Single Detached House is NON-CONFORMING pursuant to Section 643 of the Municipal Government Act.

The existing Single Detached House is non-conforming for the following reason:

1. Section 814.3(8) states that if vehicular access is provided from the fronting public roadway, a Garage may protrude a maximum of 1.0 metres beyond the front wall of the principal building and have a maximum width of 7.3 metres or 35 percent of the Site Width, whichever is less.

SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT APPEAL BOARD OFFICER’S COMMENTS (CONTINUED)

(1) If a development permit has been issued on or before the day on which a land use bylaw or a land use amendment bylaw comes into force in a municipality and the bylaw would make the development in respect of which the permit was issued a non-conforming use or non-conforming building, the development permit continues in effect in spite of the coming into force of the bylaw.

(2) A non-conforming use of land or a building may be continued but if that use is discontinued for a period of 6 consecutive months or more, any future use of the land or building must conform with the land use bylaw then in effect.

(3) A non-conforming use of part of a building may be extended throughout the building but the building, whether or not it is a non-conforming building, may not be enlarged or added to and no structural alterations may be made to it or in it.

(4) A non-conforming use of part of a lot may not be extended or transferred in whole or in part to any other part of the lot and no additional buildings may be constructed on the lot while the non-conforming use continues.

(5) A non-conforming building may continue to be used but the building may not be enlarged, added to, rebuilt or structurally altered except (a) to make it a conforming building, (b) for routine maintenance of the building, if the development authority considers it necessary, or (c) in accordance with a land use bylaw that provides minor variance powers to the development authority for the purposes of this section.

Section 11.3(3) states that the Development Officer may approve, with or without conditions as a Class B Development, an enlargement, alteration or addition to a legal non-conforming building if the non-conforming building complies with the uses prescribed for the land in this Bylaw and the proposed development would not, in his opinion:

This application was approved by the Development Officer subject to conditions and variances.

Pursuant to Section 11.3 and 11.4 and subject to the right of appeal to the Subdivision and Development Appeal Board, Section 21.1, the Development Officer granted the following variances:

Only change to front is proposed 0.61 metres cantilever, this is existing.

Included under “Justification” in the Sustainable Development Department POSSE System dated March 27, 2012, the Development Officer has provided the following information:

This house with the front attached garage has been in existence for years. It was built under RF1 regulations prior to the Mature Neighbourhood Overlay and it complied. The changes they are making to the house do not add to the non conformity and will be an improvement to the dwelling and overall to the neighbourhood.

They do have a cantilever on the front of the garage but it is an architectural feature and it ties in with the rest of the exterior improvements.

In the opinion of the Development Officer, the proposed development will not materially interfere with or affect the use, enjoyment or value of neighbouring property owners.

The following permit applications are listed in the Sustainable Development Department POSSE system:

Application Description Decision Number 34626180-001 Compliance Certificate September 17, 2003; In response to your letter dated September 3, 2003, this is to advise you that the building (Single Detached House, Attached Garage and Uncovered Rear Decks) indicated on the Real Property Report dated July 23, 2003, and signed by H.L. Cummings, Alberta Land Surveyor, does NOT comply with the following yard regulations 21

34626180-001 governing RF1 (Single Detached (continued) Residential) Zone and The Mature Neighbourhood Overlay:

The minimum Rear Yard shall be 40 percent of Site depth. (Reference Section 814.3(17)).

However, the building is NON- CONFORMING pursuant to Section 643(1) of the Municipal Government Act. Section 643(5) of the Municipal Government Act states:

"643(5) A non-conforming building may continue to be used but the building may not be enlarged, added to, rebuilt or structurally altered except (a) to make it a conforming building, (b) for routine maintenance of the building, if the development authority considers it necessary, or (c) in accordance with a land use bylaw that provides minor variance powers to the development authority for the purposes of this section." 64309-001 To construct interior May 3, 1990; Approved with alterations in a Single conditions.
