Present Status of Land Subject to Application: Lands are used for residential purposes and are subject to an application for lands severance (NAPB File # B/11/Powassan/2018).

Purpose of the Application:  Applicant is requesting relief from Section 4.5.2 (iv) of the Zoning Bylaw which requires a 15 metre exterior yard setback.  The applicant has submitted an application to the North Almaguin Planning Board to sever approximately 74.5 acres from the existing 76.5 acre parcel upon which a dwelling currently exists.  The new 2 acre lot (containing the dwelling) will not comply with the exterior side yard setback regulation of 15 metres. The proposed variance will also recognize an existing detached garden shed which is located in the front yard of the existing dwelling on the proposed lot. The variances have been requested to ensure the proposed new lot is compliant with the Municipality’s Zoning By-law.
