Miller Paving Limited et al. v. Muskoka (District), 2026 CanLII 55964

Tribunal adopts District's Issues List for Official Plan appeal, restricting issues to those in Notices of Appeal.

The Tribunal held a fifth Case Management Conference regarding appeals of the District's approval of the new Township of Muskoka Lakes Official Plan.

The parties disputed the contents of the Issues List.

The Appellants sought to include policies related to aggregates, rural and resource management, transportation, and water, arguing the Provincial Planning Statement must be read in its entirety.

The District and added parties argued the Issues List should be restricted to issues specifically named in the Notices of Appeal, consistent with a prior Tribunal order.

The Tribunal agreed with the District, finding its Issues List best complied with the prior order and provided a fair and just process.

A 13-day hearing on the merits was scheduled for February 2027, and a Procedural Order was issued.

JBrine 6179 Lundy's Lane GP Inc. v. Niagara Falls (City), 2026 CanLII 55973

Appeals for 10-storey mixed-use development dismissed due to incompatible height and massing near heritage site.

The applicant appealed the City of Niagara Falls' failure to make a decision on applications for an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment to permit a 10-storey mixed-use building.

The subject property is located adjacent to the Battlefield Museum, a recognized heritage site.

The Tribunal found that the proposed development's height, mass, and scale would overwhelm the adjacent heritage property and did not conform with the City's Official Plan policies regarding compatibility and transition.

The Tribunal preferred the evidence of the City's planners and heritage experts, concluding the proposal was an overbuild that did not represent good planning.

The appeals were dismissed.

Consent to sever property for a new residential lot granted based on parties' settlement.

The applicant appealed the Town of Caledon Committee of Adjustment's refusal of a consent application to sever a property to create a new residential lot.

Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement and the Committee of Adjustment conditionally approved a related minor variance.

Based on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found that a plan of subdivision was not necessary and that the proposed consent was consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conformed to the applicable Official Plans, and represented good planning.

The appeal was allowed and provisional consent was granted subject to conditions.

Laventure v. Renfrew (County), 2026 CanLII 35705

Consent to sever additional dwelling from prime agricultural farm property denied for non-conformity with official plan.

The appellants appealed the County's refusal of an application to sever an additional dwelling unit from their farm property.

The subject lands were designated as prime agricultural in the County Official Plan.

The appellants argued the severed portion had poor soil quality and was unusable for agriculture.

The Tribunal dismissed the appeal, finding that the proposed consent was not consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement 2024 and did not conform with the County Official Plan, which restricts lot creation in prime agricultural areas to protect agricultural resources.

The Tribunal noted that concerns regarding soil quality and land designation should be addressed through an official plan amendment rather than a consent application.

The Lake Associations brought a motion to dismiss appeals filed by Our Muskoka, Miller Paving, and Elizabeth Lippa against the District's approval of the Township of Muskoka Lakes' new Official Plan.

The moving parties argued the notices of appeal failed to provide the required explanations of how the plan was inconsistent with the Provincial Policy Statement or failed to conform with the District Official Plan, as required by s. 17(37.1) of the Planning Act.

The Tribunal granted the motion, dismissing Our Muskoka's appeal entirely for lacking the mandatory explanations and land use planning grounds.

The Tribunal also dismissed the Miller Paving and Lippa appeals in part, scoping them to remove broad claims of non-conformity that lacked specific policy references.

Aaron v. Lambton Shores (Municipality), 2026 CanLII 16287

Appeals for minor variance and development permit for a deck in a dynamic beach hazard dismissed.

The appellants appealed the denial of a minor variance and the refusal of a development permit to replace an existing deck with a larger, engineered deck located at a 0m setback within a dynamic beach hazard area on Lake Huron.

The appellants argued that existing timber cribs mitigated the dynamic beach processes, making the development safe.

The Tribunal dismissed both appeals, finding that the proposal was not consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, 2024, or local planning policies, which strictly prohibit new development in dynamic beach hazard areas regardless of existing shoreline protection.

OLTFeb 19, 2026

Kandasamy v. Ajax (Municipality), 2026 CanLII 12504

Minor variance for secondary storey platform authorized as it meets the four tests under the Planning Act.

The appellant appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision refusing a minor variance to permit a maximum area of 105.0 square metres for all platforms more than 1.2 metres in height above finished ground level.

The variance was sought to allow a flat roof over an existing deck to be used as a functional secondary storey platform with glass railings.

The Tribunal found that the variance met the four tests under s. 45(1) of the Planning Act, noting that the footprint remained the same and privacy impacts were pre-existing due to the slope of the land.

The appeal was allowed in part and the variance authorized subject to conditions.

OLTFeb 9, 2026

Carole and George Parazader v. Fort Erie (Town), 2025 CanLII 130898

Appeal of a severance condition requiring a Restoration Plan for a significant woodland dismissed.

The appellants appealed a condition imposed by the Town of Fort Erie's Committee of Adjustment on a provisional consent for a severance.

The condition required the submission and approval of a Restoration Plan for a significant woodland on the property.

The appellants argued the condition was unnecessary and disproportionate, relying on a 2018 Environmental Impact Study and a 5-metre setback.

The Town maintained the condition was supported by provincial and local planning policies to protect and restore natural heritage features.

The Tribunal preferred the Town's evidence, finding the 2018 study outdated and the condition reasonable, relevant, and necessary to ensure the long-term health of the woodland.

The appeal was dismissed and the condition upheld.

Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement agreement.

Based on the uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found that the requested variances, subject to conditions including a permanent parking agreement, met the four-part test under the Planning Act, were consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, and represented good planning.

The appeal was allowed in part to authorize the variances subject to the agreed conditions.
