REASONS FOR DECISION:

The MPT APPROVED the application for the reasons in the Planner’s report except reasons 7.1.4 and 7.1.8 are amended and added an additional reason which reads as follows:

7.1.4. The proposal will not have a significant negative impact especially with regard to abutting properties privacy and sunlight, as it is a single storey, inward orientated development, which complies with the required setbacks along the borders of existing developments.
7.1.8 The proposed development will be subject to all applicable safety and health regulations, and is therefore not likely to materially impact on the safety, health and wellbeing of the surrounding community.
7.1.9 The proposal is compliant with the desirability criteria in Section 99 of the Municipal Planning By-Law.
