Appeal allowed in part to amend zoning by-law permitting a two-storey boathouse on Lake Muskoka.
The applicant appealed the Township's refusal of a Zoning By-law Amendment to permit the construction of a two-storey boathouse and associated dock on Lake Muskoka.
The parties reached a settlement prior to the hearing.
Based on the uncontroverted land use planning evidence, the Tribunal found that the proposed amendment, which included reduced lot frontage and increased width permissions, was consistent with provincial policies and conformed to the applicable official plans.
The appeal was allowed in part and the zoning by-law was amended accordingly.
