DVP-04-2020 – 651 Laura Road

SEEKING PUBLIC COMMENT
for DVP-04-2020 (651 Laura Rd)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

A Development Variance Permit application has been submitted for 651 Laura Road (shown on map) to vary the maximum size of a detached secondary detached suite from 115 sm to 214 sm such that the existing residence can remain in the same rental capacity without physical renovation while shifting its use from the primary to the secondary residence, due to the construction of a new primary residence on the same lot.

This permit would allow the long term rental use of the existing building to continue with a housing agreement in place to address affordability.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The application may also be viewed by appointment at Municipal Hall between 8:30 AM and 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday (excluding statutory holidays).
