[4:30] So just some housekeeping items before we get started. Tonight's

[4:33] meeting is set in the agenda. Only those matters before

[4:35] the committee will be discussed. This meeting is not the

[4:38] appropriate form to discuss property standards issues, property taxes, or

[4:41] any other general complaints to the town. Please contact the

[4:44] town during normal business hours to discuss these and in

[4:47] the other matters. All written correspondents provided the Secretary Treasurer

[4:53] of the public record and hereby read into evidence. In

[4:57] order for the Committee to approve an application, the majority

[4:59] of the members present must satisfy themselves at the application

[5:02] satisfies the applicable requirements of the planning act. If there

[5:06] is a tie vote, which shouldn't happen tonight, the application

[5:30] certain public bodies, and the minister to the Ontario land

[5:33] tribunal. If you wish to appeal a decision, please contact

[5:36] the Secretary Treasure. So we're on to number five, which

[5:40] is items for consideration. First application is A26 - 029M387

[5:46] Campbell Avenue East. If the owner or representative could please

[5:50] come forward. Good evening, sir. If you could turn on

[5:57] your mic, the big button there. Good evening, Mr. Chair

[6:00] Committee. And if you could state your name and clarify

[6:03] whether you are the applicant, the agent or the owner.

[6:05] Sure. My name is Shane Edwards from Houston Studio and

[6:08] where the applicant on behalf of the owner for 387

[6:11] Campbell Avenue East. Great. If you could tell the committee

[6:13] what variances you're applying for and explanation of the purpose

[6:16] and reasons for the application and why you feel it's

[6:18] minor in nature. And you have the floor for five

[6:20] minutes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. So yes, so this application

[6:25] is rather straightforward. We're requesting three variances. So I'll just

[6:29] quickly run through those. The first is to permit a

[6:32] second garage, whereas zoning bylaw permits a maximum of one

[6:36] garage per lot. This is for a residential dwelling, by

[6:39] the way. The second variance is to permit a maximum

[6:42] garage door height of 2. 74 metres, where the bylaw

[6:46] permits a maximum of 2. 4 metres. And the third

[6:50] is to permit a residential driveway having a width of

[6:53] 22. 42 metres to exceed the width of the proposed

[6:56] three - car garage, where the zoning by - law

[6:58] states that the residential driveway leading to a three -

[7:01] car garage shall not exceed the width of the garage

[7:03] face. So with this, I just want to clarify that

[7:09] we did defer from the June hearing, and we worked

[7:11] with staff to kind of make some amendments to the

[7:14] proposal. Um, I'm not sure, are we able to bring

[7:16] up anything on the screen or is it just. Could

[7:20] we bring up figure. One, please. Just while I explain

[7:29] the variances, it might help to see. Yes.

[8:29] Apologies, I can continue if you'd like to.

[8:55] Great, thank you very much. If you could please zoom

[9:00] into kind of the middle there.

[9:14] A little bit further, if you could. Perfect.

[9:27] Okay, thank you. So just some background, as I mentioned,

[9:30] we did work with planning staff since the previous deferral

[9:33] to work through some comments. The most notable were from

[9:36] the NEC. There were some comments on the, I guess,

[9:39] the length of the driveway. As you can see coming

[9:41] from Campbell Avenue to where the dwelling is, it's rather

[9:44] central in the large. Property. Um, so they had some

[9:48] comments with regards to the amount of impervious surface that

[9:52] we were proposing. And the other comments were from the

[9:55] Fire Department, and basically they were saying that we need

[9:58] to have a fire access route because of the distance

[10:00] of the dwelling away from Campbell Avenue. So we did

[10:03] satisfy those comments. We did alter the driveway. So as

[10:06] you can see, there is a fire root. Now it

[10:08] is meet the minimum width. And we do meet the

[10:11] minimum, um, turning radius required, as well as the hammerhead

[10:15] provided for maneuverability of the Fire Truck on the property.

[10:18] And to address the surface, uh, treatment we did propose,

[10:21] you can see the different hatches of the driveway. The

[10:24] solid hatch is the obviously an asphalt impervious that's beneath

[10:28] the fire root. But all other areas of the driveway

[10:31] are, uh, paverstone obviously will allow some previous pass -

[10:35] through of water. Um, so just getting back to the

[10:38] variances. So as you can see here, there is an

[10:41] attached garage in the main portion of the dwelling on

[10:44] the left. And you do see the second garage on

[10:46] the right there. So that's the second garage. There are

[10:49] two garages. One is a two car in the main

[10:51] portion of the dwelling. And the, what looks like a

[10:54] detached three car garage. I just wanted to point out

[10:57] that there is a breezeway connecting that to the main

[11:00] dwelling. So even though it looks like it's detached and

[11:02] it is, I guess, detached from the rest of the

[11:05] floor plan, physically it is attached to the main dwelling.

[11:08] So it is part of the main dwelling. It's not

[11:10] a detached freestanding garage. Um, and if you can kind

[11:14] of see the dimensional line from the back right corner

[11:17] of that second garage to the back right corner of

[11:20] the main dwelling, that's that 22. 42 metre dimension. That's

[11:24] the maximum technical driveway width. So just to point out

[11:27] as well that that's not the full driveway with leading

[11:30] down to the road. That is the minimum six metre

[11:32] required for the fire root. Um, and so those are

[11:36] pretty much variance number one in variance number three. Variance

[11:40] number two is just the increase of, uh, garage door

[11:43] height from 2. 4 to 2. 7, basically eight feet

[11:46] to nine feet, which just architecturally and aesthetically matches the

[11:49] design of the dwelling a bit more. So that's basically

[11:52] it, Mr. Chair. I'll turn it over to yourself in

[11:54] the committee and I'd be happy to answer any questions.

[11:56] Thank you. Uh, does the committee have any questions of

[11:59] the agents? Go ahead. Thank you very much for a

[12:02] quick brief. Uh, I just want to know that this

[12:05] detached garage is connected with a breezeway. Right. Correct. So

[12:09] it's, it's a detached garage in the sense that it's

[12:12] disconnected from the rest of the floor plan, but it

[12:13] is attached with the full breeze way. So it is

[12:15] part of the main dwelling structure. And there is no

[12:19] access to the garage from the breezeway, correct? No, the

[12:24] breezeway is an outdoor. It's just covered. So it's basically

[12:26] like a, like a covered over breezeway that connects the

[12:29] two, but the passage between the two. And what is

[12:33] the height of the garage. The height of the garage?

[12:37] If we call up figure four, you can kind of

[12:39] see the architectural elevation that will show that. I can

[12:45] see that it is eight metres. It's quite high. It's

[12:48] basically the same height of the main dwelling. It's a

[12:50] bit more, uh, it'll be clear in the, sorry, figure

[12:53] three, I apologise. Figure three page.

[13:11] I can see that in the drank, it is nine

[13:13] metre from grade level. So it is quite high. So

[13:16] it's basically not connected. It's basically the same. It's connected

[13:19] and it's basically the same height as the main dwelling.

[13:21] So it's part of the main dwelling. The only thing

[13:23] is there's a pass through underneath a breezeway that gets

[13:26] to the rear portion that was shown on the site

[13:28] plan. It's if we could pull up the elevation, it

[13:31] would be a bit more clear. Thank you. I got

[13:34] my answer. Any other questions. All right, sir, if you

[13:39] just want to have a C, thank you very much.

[13:41] I'm going to open it up to the public now.

[13:43] Are there any members of the public that wish to

[13:45] address the committee on the application at 387 Campbell Avenue

[13:49] East. Once, twice. Okay. I'm going to close public participation.

[13:55] And I'm going to turn it over back to the

[13:56] committee. Um, any questions of the planner, which is Ms.

[14:00] Hayes. I just, on that discussion we just had, um,

[14:08] the, um. Because it's attached, it meets the height, like

[14:11] where everything else is. It's just these, the minor variances

[14:14] are going to creep up at building permit stage to

[14:16] your knowledge. Through you, Mr. Chair, that's correct. So there

[14:20] are different zoning provisions for attach versus detached garages since

[14:23] the breezeway connecting this garage. It essentially has the same

[14:26] high restrictions as the primary dwelling.

[14:37] Motion, sorry. I have a motion booth by Chris Chambino,

[14:41] seconded by Salmon Al - Ahi. Be it resolved that

[14:43] the application for minor variants under section 45, one and

[14:46] two of the planning act, file A26029M for 387 Campbell

[14:51] Avenue East in the town of Milton. Be approved subject

[14:54] following conditions. Excuse me. One, that the devil elevelment shall

[14:58] be constructed generally in accordance with the site plan prepared

[15:01] by US designed studio and dated and stamped by Town

[15:04] Zoning on July 9th, 2026, and the elevations prepared by

[15:08] Huey's design studio and dated and stamped by Town Zoning

[15:12] on May 22nd, 2026. Two, that a Building Permit be

[15:15] obtained within two years from the date of the decision.

[15:18] Three, that prior to issuance of a building permit, an

[15:20] entrance permit shall be obtained for the new driveway. Four,

[15:23] that prior to the assurance of a building permit, the

[15:25] applicant shall obtain a building and land use permit from

[15:28] the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario. Five, that the applicant

[15:32] shall obtain all necessary clearance from the conservation halten and

[15:36] shall submit the most current application materials to conservation Halton

[15:40] to ensure that previously issued development clearance letter remains consistent.

[15:45] Six, that prior to the issuants of a building permit,

[15:47] the applicant shall provide confirmation of the proposed cut and

[15:53] permit is required for the post scope of work. Seven

[15:57] that the owner shall plant and maintain trees as shown

[15:59] on the approved site plan. And finally, eight that the

[16:02] approval will be subject to an expire of two years

[16:04] from the date of decision. If the conditions are not

[16:06] met, if they're proposed development does not proceed and or

[16:09] a building permit is not secured. Any discussion on the

[16:13] motion as read. All those in favor, please raise your

[16:15] hand. So that's approved. And there is that 20 day

[16:18] appeal period. Thank you. Thank you for watching. You too,

[16:22] sir. Okay. Number two on the agenda is A26 -

[16:30] 032M, 1401 Argol, our gall, or not our gall. I'm

[16:38] sorry. I butchered your names here. I can't get the

[16:41] street names. Arghal Court. Come on, dancer. So if you

[16:49] turn your microphone on, and if you can state your

[16:52] name and clarify whether you're the applicant, the agent or

[16:54] the owner. Good evening, Committee members. My name is Mauli

[16:59] Kumar Goshi. I'm the applicant. If you could tell the

[17:02] committee what variances you're applying for and explanation of the

[17:04] purpose and reasons for the application and why you feel

[17:07] it's minor in nature. And you have the floor for

[17:09] five minutes. Sure. Uh, so this 1401er guy is detest

[17:17] value unit with two car garage. Homeowner wants to have

[17:23] a basement apartment and they submitted the building permit application

[17:26] for the same around three months back. And we were

[17:29] advised that to have this minor variance application because just

[17:36] to clarify, so there is existing side door entrance. Which

[17:42] we are proposing to use, to be used as a

[17:45] main entrance for the basement apartment. To meet the Ontario

[17:49] Building Court requirement, we need to provide a fire rated

[17:52] corridor in the garage. So because of that corridor, the

[17:57] available length in the garage reduces to 4. 93 metre.

[18:01] Which is less than the city's menu requirement of 6

[18:04] metre. And that is the reason why we are proposing

[18:07] a manuaryance here. Also would like to confirm that we

[18:13] are still meeting the three parking requirement, one in garage

[18:16] and two on the driveway. Requesting the approval, because this

[18:23] is the most feasible, practical and cost effective way for

[18:27] the homeowner to have this basement apartment. And happy to

[18:30] answer any questions or any clarification. Thank you, sir. Are

[18:34] there any questions of the committee to the agent. None.

[18:39] All right. If you can turn off your mic and

[18:40] have a seat, I'm going to open it up to

[18:41] the public. Are there any members of the public that

[18:44] wish to address the committee on 1401 Argual Court. Going

[18:50] once. Twice. All right. I'm closing public participation and returning

[18:55] it over to the committee, uh, to the planner, Ms.

[18:59] Wellings. Any questions of the committee to Ms. Willings. Done.

[19:04] All right. So I have a motion move by Chris

[19:08] Trombino, seconded by Comfort Ngelaja. Be it resolved that the

[19:11] application for minor variants under section 45, one and two

[19:14] of the Planning Act, file A26 - 032M for 1401

[19:19] Arghal Court in the town of Milton. Be proved subject

[19:22] to the following conditions. One, that the development shall be

[19:25] constructed in accordance with the site plan prepared by spacecraft

[19:28] building permit ink and stamped by Town Zoning on June

[19:31] 23rd, 2026. Two, that a building permit be obtained within

[19:35] two years from the date of decision. And three, that

[19:38] the approval be subject to an expire of two years

[19:40] from the date of the decision if the conditions are

[19:42] not met. If they're proposed development does not proceed and

[19:45] or a building permit is not secured. Any discussion on

[19:48] the motion is read. All those in favor, please raise

[19:51] your hand. So that is a proof, sir. And there

[19:54] is that 20 day appeal period. Thank you for attending.

[20:03] Okay. Um, moving on to number three, which is

[20:09] A26034M7211 5th line. If the agent could come forward. Or

[20:18] representative, sorry. So if you could just turn on your

[20:21] mic. And if you could state your name and clarify

[20:24] whether the applicant agent or owner first, please. My name

[20:27] is Laura LaVell Panzeropolis. Don't worry, you won't be quizzed

[20:30] on it. Um, and I'm a senior planner with the

[20:33] Big Leary group. And I'm here as the agent for

[20:36] the owner. Great. Uh, if you could tell the committee

[20:39] what variances you're applying for, an explanation of the purpose

[20:42] and reasons for the application, why you feel it's minor

[20:44] in nature. And you have the floor for five minutes.

[20:47] All right. So this application for 7211 5th line is

[20:53] for a warehouse building that's in existence, um, it is

[20:57] approximately 255, 000 square feet. It has 175 surface parking

[21:03] spaces currently. No changes are being proposed to the site.

[21:06] So the look at today in terms of a site

[21:09] plan, um, it's only a change to a parking rate

[21:12] that we are proposing. So this site from a planning

[21:16] context is within the urban area, industrial area employment area

[21:20] and zoned for, uh, industrial uses with an exception that

[21:24] limits the types of industrial uses that are on this

[21:27] particular site. So the application is straightforward. We are seeking

[21:31] relief from the zoning bylaw requirement that parking for industrial

[21:36] and warehouse uses on the site be calculated based on

[21:39] the number of tenants or units within the building. Instead,

[21:44] we are requesting that it be calculated based on the

[21:46] entire building GFA. Um, so this will provide flexibility for

[21:51] in the future. Um, the building, the existing building as

[21:55] it is to accommodate additional tenants while maintaining the existing

[21:58] site layout. So that's the purpose here. Parking justification has

[22:02] been provided by Crozier and finds that this proposed rate

[22:07] meets the, uh, that's already met by the existing supply

[22:10] of 170 spaces is sufficient to support anticipated parking uses

[22:15] for even a multi - tenant building, considering the existing

[22:19] permitted uses in the zone. Um, in our opinion, the

[22:23] application is consistent with the four tests under section 45

[22:27] planning act for minor variances. It maintains the intent of

[22:30] the official plan. Um, since employment areas are intended to

[22:34] support a diverse range of uses and make efficient use

[22:37] of employment lands. It maintains the intent of the zoning

[22:42] bylaw, which is to provide appropriate parking for the use,

[22:47] which is demonstrated in crosures parking analysis. And it's desirable

[22:51] and appropriate because it allows the property to respond to

[22:54] changing market demands and supports employment uses in the town.

[22:58] Finally, it is minor in nature. Um, the proposed changes

[23:02] to the site. Nothing you would see on the outside.

[23:05] No proposed changes to the uses. Um, and there have

[23:09] also been identical variances approved on other similar properties in

[23:13] the area, um, to allow it to be, um, evaluated

[23:16] by the building and not by the tenants and also

[23:20] other similar rates that would be equivalent. And I can

[23:24] go into more in depth if you are interested in

[23:27] that minutiae. But for now, thank you so much for

[23:29] your time. And I would be pleased to answer any

[23:32] follow - up questions. Thank you very much. Are there

[23:34] any questions of the committee to the agent? I just

[23:37] have one. So basically the parking is the parking. What's

[23:39] there now is what's going to move forward and stay

[23:42] forever. Perfect. All right. That's correct. Thank you very much.

[23:46] If you just wanted to turn off your mic. I'm

[23:48] going to open it up to the public. Are there

[23:49] any members of the public that wish to address the

[23:51] committee on the application at 721 fifth line. Seeing none,

[23:57] I'm going to move right in. Oh, sorry. Now before

[24:00] I do that, I have to bring it to the

[24:02] planner. Yes. Sorry. I apologise. Just a question. So she

[24:05] talks about the comparisons that they used in the report.

[24:08] There are various other sites warehouses that they compared in

[24:13] this report. Are they all the same kind of business?

[24:17] I know it's warehouse. Why is it the same kind

[24:19] of, um, things they're due in the sink to compare

[24:23] them like for like, just wanting to confirm that. Through

[24:28] you, Mr. Chair. Uh, yes, in this scenario, they did

[24:31] review, um, previous parking data that they had looked at

[24:35] for the actual usage of parking, um, areas incomparable industrial

[24:40] warehouse sites. Um, and our transportation staff were satisfied by

[24:45] the comparables that were provided that they do translate to

[24:48] an appropriate assessment of this site as well. Sorry about

[24:53] that. Did want to stay full discussion. I apologise. Moving

[24:56] on to motion now. I have a motion move by

[24:59] Tyler's thought, seconded by Salman Alahee. Be it resolved at

[25:01] the application for minor variants under section 45, one and

[25:04] two of the Planning Act file A26 - 034M47211 fifth

[25:10] line in the town of Milton. Be approved subject to

[25:12] the following condition that the minor variance shall apply to

[25:15] the 23, 724 square metre building shown on the site

[25:19] plan prepared by Turner Flesher and date and dated and

[25:23] stamped by Town Zoning on June 23rd, 2026. Any discussion

[25:28] on the motion has read. All those in favor, please

[25:31] raise your hand. So that is approved. There is that

[25:33] 20 day appeal period. But thank you very much for

[25:35] attending. Okay. We are on

[25:45] to item number four, which is A26 - 05M0 James

[25:50] Snow Parkway North. The agent, Commando.

[26:01] So if you could just turn on your microphone for

[26:03] us, please. Great. And if you could state your name

[26:06] and clarify whether you are the applicant or the agent

[26:08] for this application. Uh, hello. I'm Jennifer Drewzik with Arcadis.

[26:14] I'm a planner and we are the agent representing the

[26:17] current owner Broccolini for the site at zero James Snow

[26:21] Parkway. Um, we did have some visuals and it would

[26:24] be helpful if I could get number three up or

[26:28] slide three up. Um, as we go through it. As

[26:31] part of this minor variance application, we're also working with

[26:34] staff, uh, throughout a site plan application. And so that's

[26:37] what brought us here today. We're here to bring forward

[26:40] four minor variances. Um, as part of this application, the

[26:45] first one being a request to increase the maximum driveway

[26:49] with a two - way driveway width. That's the one

[26:51] that you see in magenta at the left - hand

[26:53] side. The second minor variance we're requesting is the parking

[26:57] area setback. In blue. And then the green is to

[27:02] permit a trash compactor. Outside of the primary dwelling. And

[27:10] that one's in green. And then the fourth one is

[27:12] an accessory building, which is like specifically it's a smoke

[27:17] shelter. Um, in the front yard, um, you'll see through

[27:20] this figure that it is three frontages that we are

[27:24] dealing with in terms of exposure to the right of

[27:26] way, uh, but the front yard is considered through a

[27:29] site specific zoning bylaw as James Snow Parkway. And, uh,

[27:36] from a planning perspective, um, all four variants do align

[27:41] with the general intent of the town of Milton Official

[27:44] Plan and the town of Milton Zoning bylaw. These are

[27:47] site - specific requests that we're making in order for

[27:50] the prospective tenant, which is Mad Lodge Farms to function

[27:53] on the site from a traffic perspective, um, and from,

[27:57] uh, like a user's perspective as well. Um. Just to

[28:02] go back to the variances as well. We are seeking,

[28:06] um, like minor reductions and the numbers are included there

[28:09] from where we are revising them. So just to go

[28:12] from left and right again, it's from 15 metres to

[28:14] a roar requesting is 25. 2 metres, 1. 5 metres

[28:19] to 1. 2 metres. It's a minor request. And then

[28:23] the other two aren't quantified. From planning perspective from the

[28:30] planning act, uh, and against the minor variance for tests,

[28:33] we do believe that the four variances do maintain the

[28:37] general intent and purpose of the official plan, general intent

[28:41] and purpose of the zoning bylaw. And we do believe

[28:44] that the variances are desirable and appropriate within the proposed

[28:49] industrial use. Uh, and that they are minor in nature.

[28:54] And again, this application is part of a broader site

[28:58] plan application that we're continuing to work with staff. And

[29:00] so, um, things in advance for all the assistants, uh,

[29:05] to get us to this point, uh, but I'm happy

[29:07] to answer any questions. Thank you. Um, are there any

[29:10] questions of the committee to the agents. Nope. All right.

[29:15] Thanks. If you just want to turn off your mic

[29:17] and have a seat. I don't suppose, sir, you're here

[29:19] for this. Okay. And no one's here for the public.

[29:23] All right. So we're going to turn it right over

[29:24] to, uh, I'm closing the public. Okay. Somebody comes back

[29:28] and says, I didn't offer the public a chance to

[29:30] speak. So the public turned over to the committee, the

[29:34] planner is Miss Wellings. Does the committee have any questions

[29:38] of Ms. Welling's. Go ahead. So the second variance is

[29:45] just for me to get this clarity. I know it's

[29:49] the waste is going to be food. Right? Like because

[29:53] it's. It's a food storage with whatever. The smell. Overflow.

[30:01] All those will be taken care of by there will

[30:03] be no issues because I'm foreseeing the situation where later

[30:06] there's like, we have issues with clearing the rubbish. And

[30:10] then because it's outside, we have animal infestations. We have

[30:13] all of that coming around that which could happen. Is

[30:18] it okay where it's located? I know it's been hidden,

[30:20] but stuff like that do happen. Through you, Mr. Chair,

[30:26] that's a great question. So through the site plan process,

[30:29] waste management plan will be provided and approved by regional

[30:33] staff. Further, this is a permitted use. So there's no

[30:37] issue with the use being proposed in the building. So

[30:40] we have no concerns with it being an industrial food

[30:43] type processing facility. Okay. Thank you. So if there's no

[30:49] further discussion, I'm going to move right to motion. Have

[30:51] a motion move by Chris Trambino. Second of Vitaler Slot.

[30:54] Be it resolved that the application for minor variants under

[30:56] section 4512 of the Planning Act file A26 - 035M40.

[31:03] James Snow Parkway North in the town of Milton be

[31:06] approved subject to the following conditions. One, that the development

[31:08] shall be constructed in accordance with the site plan prepared

[31:11] by powers, brown architect and dated and stamped by Town

[31:14] Zoning on June 22nd, 2026, two that a building permit

[31:19] be obtained within two years from the date of the

[31:21] decision. And three, that the approval be subject to an

[31:24] expiry of two years from the date of the decision

[31:26] of the conditions are not met. If they're proposed development

[31:29] does not proceed and or a building permit is not

[31:31] secured. Any discussion on the motion as read. All those

[31:36] in favor, please raise your hand. So that is approved

[31:39] and it is again subject to that 20 day appeal

[31:41] period. Thank you for attending. And last but not least,

[31:48] uh, item number five, A26 - 036M 115125 side road.

[31:55] Come on down. Thank you for your patients. So if

[32:00] you just turn on your mic, and if you could

[32:03] just state your name and clarify whether you're the applicant

[32:05] agent or the owner first, please. Sure. Uh, yeah, my

[32:08] name's Ethan Merritt and I am the agent on behalf

[32:11] of the owner. Great. If you could tell the committee

[32:13] what variances you're applying for and explanation of the purpose

[32:16] and reason for the application and why you feel it's

[32:18] minor in nature. And you have the floor for five

[32:20] minutes. Sure. Um, so the variances to have a pool

[32:24] in the front yard. Typically with residential, I would agree

[32:27] that's not ideal. Um, however, this is an 85 acre

[32:31] rural property. Um, and there was an existing paintball field

[32:37] and business run on this property. And so there was

[32:40] an existing driveway that kind of brought you deep into

[32:43] the property. We're about 50 metres or so off of

[32:47] the road. Um, and so the driveway is just, it

[32:51] stays kind of where it was. And then we just

[32:53] finished building a new build residential home. And now the

[32:58] backyard of the house is now technically the front yard

[33:00] of the property. So we're kind of in this weird

[33:03] little position. Um, where the pool is now in the

[33:06] front yard technically speaking from the road, the absolutely no

[33:11] view of the pool or the house currently. Um, if

[33:14] you drive by, it's full evergreens all year round. Um,

[33:17] so you would never kind of have that in position

[33:19] that you would in that urban setting. Um, but yeah,

[33:22] so we're looking to be granted that pool in the

[33:26] technical front yard. Anyway. Thank you. Are there any questions

[33:31] of the committee to the agent. No. All right. Just

[33:35] turn off your mic. Have a seat. There are no

[33:37] members of the public. So we're going to go straight

[33:39] to the committee. Does the committee have any questions of

[33:42] the planner, which is Ms. Hayes. None. All right. So

[33:50] the long one. Of us should move by comfort on

[33:54] Gallaja. Second of by Chris Trambino. Be it resolved at

[33:57] the application for minor variants under section 4512 of the

[34:00] Planning Act file A26 - 036M for 1151 25 side

[34:06] road in the town of Milton. Be approved subject to
