Zoning Review
Review No:1

The proposed tenant improvement results in modifications to
the approved Landscape, circulation and parking plan for application 131192 and
requires a Minor Variation. Currently application 161060 (a proposal to
construct and outdoor patio) is in process. This application requires an
additional parking variance and a number of policy conflicts have been
identified.  It is recommended that application
161060 be modified to capture the new scope of work which entails the deletion
of the patio and revisions to the approved plans. In order to process the minor
variation, two additional revised sets of plans should be submitted directly to
the Project Planner for application 161060.

Additionally, the locating of the trash enclosure with an easement
at the north side of the property appears inconsistent with the copy of the
easement on file under application 131192 which states: “Being and easement for
sidewalk, utility, and sign purposes over a portion of said land…”. Please
clarify how it was determined that the storage of trash is allowed within the easement.


Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the
above comments.



Review No:2

Approval of this application is pending approval of Minor Variation application 161060 which is currently in process. A letter dated August 22, 2016 provided a list of required materials in order to proceed with the Minor Variation.

Though it appears the requested materials/revisions have been incorporated into the most recent submission for the building permit, additional revised plans continue to be necessary for the further processing of the Minor Variation.

Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this requirement.
