4.3.5 Side Building Set-backs<br />
New developments in the <strong>Intensification</strong> <strong>Area</strong>s should<br />
maintain as continuous a streetwall as possible, while<br />
respecting the adjacent properties access to natural light<br />
and air. As a result, new buildings should apply a minimum<br />
distance from existing buildings with side windows.<br />
a) Where a new building is adjacent to a vacant lot, buildings<br />
should be built to the side property line (with no windows)<br />
to allow for a continuous streetwall in the future.<br />
b) New buildings must maintain a minimum 5.5 metre<br />
distance from existing adjacent buildings that have<br />
windows on their side-facing walls.<br />

c) When the new building is set back at least 5.5 metres<br />
from the property line, it should incorporate glazing where<br />
possible.<br />
d) Additional set-backs will be required when the existing<br />
building has its primary windows on the side face. The<br />
distance <strong>of</strong> the set-back in these instances will be<br />
determined on a case-by-case basis.<br />
