The appellants appealed the City of Toronto's failure to make a decision on a zoning by-law amendment application to permit a mixed-use building at 778-788 King Street West.
The parties reached a settlement for a 20-storey building that conserves the principal heritage elevation.
Based on uncontradicted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the proposal represents appropriate intensification and is compatible with the surrounding built form.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part and approved the zoning by-law amendment in principle, withholding the final order until various conditions, including servicing and heritage agreements, are satisfied.
