Zoning by-law amendment for 14-storey residential building approved in principle following settlement between parties.
The applicant appealed the City of Toronto's failure to make a decision on a zoning by-law amendment application to permit a 16-storey residential building.
Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement for a revised 14-storey development.
Based on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the revised proposal consistent with provincial policy and the City's Official Plan, representing good planning and transit-oriented infill development.
The appeal was allowed in part, and the zoning by-law amendment was approved in principle, with the final order withheld pending the satisfaction of several conditions.
