Um I myself have one and Mr. Towski, you'll kindly take over as chair at that time. Okay. Madame Secretary, do I have requests for um withdrawals or deferrals of application? We do have one application now that is um has been deferred. Please note that if you are in attendance for application 134 of 2026 at 2072 Salvatore Boulevard that this application has been deferred and you will receive a further notice when it comes back on our agenda. I will note that there is one letter of objection for this application from Alisa Syler. Miss Syler, if you are in attendance, you will get a chance to address the committee when the application comes back before the committee again. Application 134 of 2026 at 2072 Salvatore Boulevard has been deferred. Madam Secretary, do I have any others? >> We're showing no hands in the audience. Thank you. >> Okay. Very well. We'll take the first ma. We have no consent applications and we'll take the first matter before the committee and that's application 105 of 2026 deferred from August the 19th of 2026 at 604 Maplehurst Drive. Again, that's application 105 of 2026 at 604 Maplehurst Drive. I have Asmin Kosari Kosrai, sorry, uh as the agent. And I do note that we have three letters of support from uh neighbors Abby Kazmar, QD Van, and Brian Peters, and Andrew Wood. Mr. Kosaravi, are you with us? Uh >> yes, of course. Uh good evening everyone. Uh Madame Chair, members of the committee and the staff. Go ahead sir. >> Thank you. Uh the application in front of you sorry my name is Osmin Kosrai. I'm the our office address is 603 Argus Road unit number 207 Kerry Engineering. I'm presenting my clients the owners of the house. Uh Mr. and Mrs. Badro. Um the application uh that I'm presenting today is for the uh construction of a new cabana, an open structure that is open mostly on four side. One side is partially closed. Um um it's a open structure at the back of the property 14 by uh 10 ft uh in each direction. Um we asking for two variances. Um the we're we have overage with respect to the lot coverage. Um uh currently we we're sitting at uh 36.72%. Um the um previous zoning uh was at 35% lots coverage currently as of uh July this year with a new bylaw we're sitting at 30%. So um that's one of the reliefs that we're asking for. And the second one is the height of the structure where uh an open um uh accessory structure. supposed to have 2.5 mters in height and we're standing at 3.1 at the maximum peak height. Basically this structure by the way is a mono slope. So um for more than 50% of it we are within the u maximum height restriction but uh at the peak level we're standing about 2 ft above the um um um the maximum height allowed. Um these are the two matters that we're uh requiring for um variance if you wish. Uh I believe uh u has been communicated with planning department. They help us obviously to readjust our numbers and the size of the structure in order to be um u more in line with the planning uh and uh um intent of the zoning bylaw obviously and um that's pretty much all I have. Thank you, Mr. Kosi. Does anyone have any questions or items of clarification? Okay, I see none. Well, who would like to make a motion? Go ahead, Miss Price. Taking into account my previous site visit and the revised reports provided by the agent and staff and there being three letters of support, I find the variances to be minor in nature and are in keeping with the general intent and purpose of the official plan and zoning bylaw and is desirable for the appropriate development of the land. The efforts made to reduce the height and size of the open area structure have helped to maintain existing neighborhood character. In conclusion, I find the application to be minor in nature and recommend the application be approved subject to the following conditions. Accessory structure be constructed in general accordance with the submitted site plan. Updated dated revision.
