REPORT TO THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER FROM THE DEVELOPMENT, ENGINEERING, AND SUSTAINABILITY DEPARTMENT

ON

REZONING APPLICATION NO. REZ00644

DEVELOPMENT PERMIT APPLICATION NO. DPM00646 2714 THOMPSON DRIVE OWNER: LORI MOSHUK

APPLICANTS: LORI MOSHUK AND JF DESIGNS

PURPOSE To rezone the subject property from RS-1 (Single Family Residential-1) to RS-1S (Single Family Residential - Suite), and to issue a Development Permit to allow a carriage suite. SUMMARY The subject property is located on Thompson Drive near Tanager Drive in Valleyview and backs onto the South Thompson River. The property is 1,928 m2 in area, is zoned RS-1, and contains an existing single-family home with a footprint of approximately 175 m2 at the rear of the lot. The applicants wish to rezone the property to RS-1S to allow a two-storey carriage suite consisting of a 111.5 m2 three-car garage, a 33.5 m2 covered carport on the ground floor, and an 88 m2 suite. The suite includes 80 m2 of habitable space with a covered porch on the second floor and 8 m2 of the ground floor dedicated to an entrance foyer and stairway. As carriage suites are subject to the Intensive Residential Development Permit Area Guidelines, a Development Permit is required. The application is consistent with the goals and policies of KAMPLAN: City of Kamloops Official Community Plan, which encourages the development of compact urban form and walkable neighbourhoods with convenient access to transit and daily needs. KAMPLAN designates the subject property as Urban, which supports diverse housing types and infill development that is compatible with existing land uses. KAMPLAN’s criteria for supporting suites includes a lack of on-street parking restrictions, landscaping to minimize visual impact, and sensitive integration into the neighbourhood. In this case, there are no on-street parking restrictions, the property is large enough to accommodate a carriage suite, the unit is designed to fit into the neighbourhood, and ample front yard landscaping is provided. The Development Permit application meets the intent of the City’s Intensive Residential Development Permit Area Guidelines with respect to site planning and building design. The proposal is unique in that the proposed carriage suite is to be located at the front of the lot rather than the rear. The site has been designed to maintain the 6 m front yard setback of a typical house and to provide substantial front yard landscaping and a direct pedestrian pathway between the building and the street. Garage doors and carport access are provided at the rear of the unit. Four parking stalls are provided within the proposed building (three in a garage and one in a carport), with additional surface parking located adjacent to the principal dwelling. A variance is required to increase the maximum lot coverage for accessory buildings from 80 m2 to 145 m2 to accommodate the parking areas for the proposed carriage suite (Attachment “B-1”).

this variance as 145 m2 is the typical size of a modestly sized house and the property is large enough to create a panhandle subdivision and construct a full-sized house in the same location. Additionally, the habitable portion of the suite complies with the maximum 95 m2 of residential living space permitted for carriage suites (the suite itself is 80 m2 with an additional 8 m2 of the ground floor used for a residential entrance area, closet, and stairway). Finally, the 145 m2 footprint of the suite is subordinate in size to the 175 m2 principal dwelling, which the applicant intends to enlarge through a substantial future addition. Building elevations include a covered entryway/carport to add visual interest, reduced building massing on the second floor, and variation in the roofline through the use of dormer features. The application includes a mix of building materials, including brick veneer, fibre cement siding, and stained wood columns and beams (Attachment “B-2”). As the application is consistent with KAMPLAN and the Public Hearing provides area residents with an opportunity to provide their input on the application, staff advise Council to proceed as outlined in the recommendation.

RECOMMENDATION: That Council authorize: a) Zoning Bylaw Amendment Bylaw No. 5-1-2877 (Attachment “A”) to

be introduced and read a first and second time b) a Public Hearing to consider Bylaw No. 5-1-2877 Note: Should Council choose to approve the above noted zoning amendment, Zoning Bylaw Amendment Bylaw No. 5-1-2877 will be held at third reading pending approval by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. c) subject to adoption of Bylaw No. 5-1-2877, the Corporate Officer to

issue Development Permit No. DPM00646, in accordance with Attachment “B”
