May I express again the Planning Board's position regarding this project. The Board received from Council notice to consider the matter. Included • in the information we received was a diagram showing the two units now being erected plus two additional two-storey units to join the two now being erected. The permit being requested was for two units but the board also considered the plan to add two more units at a subsequent date. We did not feel the lot was suitable for two units and far less so for 4 units. With two units only I suppose it could be considered a semi detached unit with a 60' frontage requirement. But the lot is considerably less than 60 feet wide. However, if these are considered as row houses the frontage requirement is 80 feet plus 20 feet for additional units. If the unit is considered to be a maisonette the requirement is 125'. I will admit an error in considering the unit as, a Maisonette having checked the nature of the design again. Nevertheless, I suggest that 80 feet would be the minimum requirement. But, the board was not really overly concerned with frontage although it is a factor since the lot in question is not even 60'; Our major concern was the lack of rear yard since the setback for rear yards is a minimum of 25 feet we felt 4' or 5' was too far below the minimum requirements. Multi-family units with inadequate yard areas do not provide acceptable outdoor living space and the Planning Board feels that Council should maintain the By-Law requirements in this connection. Generally speaking the Planning Board feels that Council should adhere to its own by-laws. In cases where Council wishes to permit actions which are contrary to the by-law proper amending procedures should be followed. Yours truly, J. L. Wooden, Secretary, Exeter Planning Board IVAN and MICKEY'S GULF Phone 238.2257 GRAND BEND Judge Glenn Hays presided over one of the longest court sessions ever held in Exeter when provincial court, criminal division, sat Friday.
