The appellant appealed the City of Markham's Zoning By-law 2023-85 regarding a high-rise mixed-use development.
The parties reached a full uncontested settlement that increased the maximum permitted units to 2,930, increased affordable housing units to 50, removed the requirement for a Community Benefit Charges Agreement, and provided for off-site parkland dedication.
Based on uncontradicted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement proposal consistent with provincial policies and good planning.
The appeal was allowed in part and the zoning by-laws were amended accordingly.
