Re:
Accessory Buildings Bylaw
Speaker: Leslie Zenger
|
|
Ms. Leslie Zenger appeared before the
Committee advising of her concern with the Building Bylaw which allows for the
construction of accessory buildings on residential properties.
The delegation showed
images of her neighbours’ 10 foot high storage shed under construction, without
permit, in the rear yard on their shared property line; and described the
impact of the new building on her enjoyment of her property.
Staff advised that, in a
response to Ms. Zenger’s complaint, the City has investigated and found the
property built to maximum allowable gross floor area and above grade floor
area. As such, the construction is in violation of the Bylaw. Staff is working
with the property owners to ensure the structure is removed and will monitor
the site to confirm bylaw compliance.
