A side-split bungalow at 75 Miles Street, east of Bronte Street and south of Main Street, would make way for a new two-storey house if a Town committee approves the request at a hearing tonight, Thursday, Nov. 12.
The new home needs a minor variance, permission to depart slightly from the zoning bylaw. The lot sits in what Milton's Official Plan, the Town's long-range land-use blueprint, calls a Mature Neighbourhood Area. The bungalow and its detached garage in the backyard would come down.
Town planning staff recommend approval with conditions, saying in their staff report they don't expect harm to neighbouring properties. As of Nov. 3, no one from the public had commented.
If approved, the owner must hand in a stormwater plan from a qualified professional before getting a building permit, and must get that permit within two years.
The hearing runs 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. tonight in Council Chambers at Town Hall, 150 Mary Street, where neighbours can speak in person. The Town says decisions can be appealed afterward.
