Kingston : Règlement no 2009-140, art. 6.2 — Any Person may seek an exemption from any of the provisions of this Bylaw by applying to the Appeals Committee for a minor variance

Any Person may seek an exemption from any of the provisions of this Bylaw by applying to the Appeals Committee for a minor variance.

The Appeal must be accompanied with information that includes the Bylaw section to be considered, as well as any plot plans, elevations and details of the Sign showing the construction including fastening and ground support, footings, photographs of the site etc. The documentation to be provided must also include the reason why the Sign cannot be installed in a manner that would meet the Bylaw. If the Committee determines that they will consider the application, any additional information that the Committee requires must be provided. The Committee may grant a minor variance if, in its opinion, the general intent and purpose of the Bylaw are maintained or if the Committee is satisfied, after allowing input from the applicant and property owners within 100 metres (328 feet), that the variance is appropriate. The Committee may attach terms and conditions to the minor variance, including the dates for which it is to be in effect and the minor variance shall be invalid if these terms and conditions are contravened.
