Subject: . Building permit # 13-96 - 776 Meech Lake Road

Mrs. Munro,

To follow up on our conversation of September 16, 1996, you are hereby notified

. to immediately suspend all work relating to permit # 13-96, which is an renewal of

.permit

34-95..

As you are aware, the building at 776 Meech Lake Road

I S

derogatory in that it is

non-conforming to setbacks. Article 6.2.3 of Zoning Bylaw # 379-92 stipulates that

anon-conforming building cannot be modified or enlarged. It is however possible

to .carry out work to maintain the building in good condition.

I understood in our last conversation you intended

t o

add on square footage by

closing in the area underneath the cottage. In view of the above, this cannot be

permitted.

over the past year, atld severaldocuments on file appear contradictory.

you submit the final proposed structural and working drawings for this project as soon as

possible.

They will beevaluated.in accordance with current bylaws ..

Dear Marie:

No one likes a 'stop work' order, but thank you for responding to our letter

so promptly and clearing the air. We stopped work on the site on Friday, 20

September, 1996.

You heard us correctly. We have told you that we intended to rack racing

singles and doubles, to store off season clothing, to store completed consulting

project materials, and to install plumbing and heating equipment such as

pressure tanks and hot water heaters. We hoped kids would change into their

bathing suits in the basement.

You are correct also about design changes. We changed the foundation

design when we cut up the floor and found that the lake water is far more

extensive than we thought. We switched to a steel structure perched on steel

pads which will not disturb the water in any way. The planned retaining wall is

intended to hold back the road and the plowed snow. They are the main

sources of damage to the building. In our changed design we have moved the

wall back to avoid disturbing the lake with the footings and to leave space for

the steel spreader pads .

.We have instructed Stuart Hall to complete the structural shop drawings

.and will have them and working drawings to you as quickly as we possibly can.

You were going to tell us what the rules are on how quickly we must finish the,

work. I can assure you we are working as quickly as we can.

Please can we have a set of relevant by-laws in the original French, and

with any translations if you have them. We will pay for any copying.

We will be approaching you at some later date about bringing the cottage

up to Code standard. We are still hoping to make the cottage accessible for my

handicapped relatives.

Sincerely,

Leslie Munro.
