Notice of Complete Application and Committee of Adjustment Meeting for 59 Dranoel Dr.

Take Notice that the Council of the Township of Cavan Monaghan will hold a public meeting of the Committee of Adjustment to consider a proposed minor variance under Section 45 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended.
Date and Time: Thursday, August 14, 2025 at 9:00 a.m.
Location of 59 Dranoel Drive (Cavan)
Subject Lands: Township of Cavan Monaghan
Property Roll Number: 1509-010-030-220-13
Purpose of the Proposed Minor Variance:
The owner of 59 Dranoel Drive wants to construct a new dwelling on the property. The existing legal non-complying dwelling is required to be removed. A minor variance is required to permit the construction of a dwelling on a property which does not front on a year-round maintained public street.
The subject property is an existing lot of record known municipally as 59 Dranoel Drive on Plan 107, Lot 37 (Cavan). The property is approximately 0.81 hectares (2.01 acres) in size. A key map showing the location of the property is provided on page 4.
The lands subject to the Application are zoned Oak Ridges Moraine Environmental (ORME) as shown on Map D-1 to By-law No. 2018-58, as amended. Single detached dwellings are permitted in the ORME Zone. The existing dwelling was legally constructed prior to the Township Zoning By-law. The dwelling is considered legal non-complying.
The property owner applied to the Township of Cavan Monaghan for approval of a minor variance to permit the construction of a dwelling 260.68 square metres (2,806 square feet) in size on a property that does not front on a year-round maintained public street.
Section 11.1 c) of By-law No. 2018-58, as amended, states that unless otherwise specified by the By-law, no lot, or building or structure on said lot, may be constructed or used unless the lot fronts on a year-round maintained public street that was not established as a consequence of registering a plan of subdivision.
The purpose and effect of the minor variance is to permit the construction and use of a replacement dwelling, notwithstanding that the lot fronts on a year-round maintained public street. All other requirements of the ORME Zone will apply.
