Tribunal approves settlement for 38-lot residential subdivision, allowing OPA, ZBA, and draft plan appeals.
The applicant appealed the City of Hamilton's failure to make a decision on applications for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendments, and a Draft Plan of Subdivision to facilitate the development of 38 single detached dwellings.
Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement.
Based on uncontroverted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found that the proposed instruments, which remove linkage identifications and establish site-specific performance standards, are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conform to the Growth Plan, and represent good planning.
The appeals were allowed in part to approve the settlement.
