Claude Doughty is in the process of redeveloping a property he owns at 38 Whitetail Lane for its new buyer. The property is about 0.74 hectares in size, with about 57 metres of frontage on Lake Vernon. It has been dubbed as one of the ugliest properties on the lake due to its turbulent past, with neighbours accusing the former owner of blatantly ignoring sound building practices and bylaws.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs you may have gathered, this property has a bit of history behind it (i.e. previous owner built house too close to the water and extended shoreline into the water) so I am hoping to make sure that things do not fall through the cracks,\u201d reads a letter submitted to the municipality by Lake Vernon Association President Tracey Rast. Her letter was among many others from adjoining property owners concerned with the property\u2019s redevelopment.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

Doughty was before Huntsville\u2019s Committee of Adjustment on October 12 seeking approval to increase the size of a reconstructed boathouse from the permitted floor area of 100m2 to 111m2. He was also seeking a variance to decrease the required setback for an infinity pool from 20 metres to 12.19 metres.<\/p>\n

Committee members expressed concerns with both. Deputy Mayor Karin Terziano asked why people need to build bigger boathouses. She said she\u2019s getting tired of people asking for variances when the Town’s Official Plan limits the size of boathouses to 100 square metres.<\/p>\n

Doughty said he understood her position but noted that committee must be consistent and reminded committee that in the past it has approved a 22 metre increase. He said the reason for the increase request is that \u201cthe new owner likes everything neat and tidy.\u201d He said rather than having water toys spread across the lake front, the boathouse will enable the owner to store all such items in one place.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can see that boathouse from Aspdin Road. It\u2019s that offensive,\u201d he said, adding that its redevelopment will be much more appealing with the width remaining under 30 feet and the colour will be darker and blend in more.<\/p>\n

\"Boathouse

Boathouse to be redeveloped on the property as presented by planning staff to committee.<\/p><\/div>\n

Councillor Jonathan Wiebe questioned the distance from the infinity pool to the lake and asked where the water would go in the event of a leak or when drainage is required.<\/p>\n

Doughty said the pool will be made of cast concrete with an overflow and backwash provision. He said the backwash would be directed up the property and into a pit and argued that the amount of chlorine in the pool is negligible. \u201cAs soon as it hits bacteria or anything, it changes its form and it\u2019s no longer an issue.\u201d Doughty said the 9 x 30 foot pool is small. \u201cThe chances of it cracking or being a catastrophic failure is low. The chlorine dissipates as soon as sunlight hits it\u2026 it\u2019s gone. So it doesn\u2019t pose a threat to the body of water.\u201d He said about 500 litres of water will come out of the backwash every two weeks containing a \u201cthimble full\u201d of chlorine, which he said will be pumped into a pit \u201cwhere there\u2019s lots of bacteria and that immediately transforms the chlorine.\u201d He also said that because the pool will be located on a high terrace it will not be an issue from a visual standpoint and added, \u201cI think that chlorine has been magnified if you will in its risk factor. The municipality has some pretty significant pools full of chlorine as well and it is not a problem that has surfaced in the past and I think it is manageable.\u201d Doughty also noted that given the area\u2019s climate the pool will likely only be used for eight weeks out of the year, \u201cso it\u2019ll get back-washed four times so it is not a big quantity,\u201d he argued.<\/p>\n

Doughty said he is addressing preexisting drainage issues on the property and said there is a substantial budget associated with the landscaping portion of the property\u2019s redevelopment. Councillor Nancy Alcock asked why revegetation had not yet taken place, as per the initial size and location variance approved by committee last year for that boathouse which is located in an area of fish habitat. Doughty said the redevelopment of the house on the property had been delayed so as not to cause noise disturbance for the neighbours during the summer months. \u201cWhen we\u2019re putting the stone on a building we can\u2019t be doing the landscaping,\u201d he said. \u201cWe delayed the stone on the building because it was so noisy. It is now finished so we\u2019ve now moved on to doing the landscaping.\u201d He said that will be completed partly this fall and the rest of it by end of May next year.<\/p>\n

Doughty assured committee that once the property is redeveloped it will be much more visibly appealing. \u201cThis whole property earned the merit of the ugliest property on I think probably any lake in Huntsville.\u201d Doughty said there are plans to plant spruce trees along the retaining wall of the property.<\/p>\n

In the end, committee approved both variance requests. You can take a look at the report from staff, letters from neighbours, photos and other information related to the development by turning to page 30 at this link<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n
