Tribunal orders related parkland dedication appeals to be heard together but not consolidated pending provincial regulation.
The Ontario Land Tribunal held a case management conference regarding multiple appeals against the City of Toronto's Official Plan Amendment No. 588 and By-law No. 1144-2022, which concern alternative parkland dedication rates.
The City requested consolidation of the appeals.
The Tribunal determined that the site-specific appeals of the OPA are distinguishable from the general appeals of the by-law, and ordered that the matters be heard together but not consolidated.
The Tribunal directed the City to provide a written status report by December 20, 2024, as the parties await a provincial regulation related to section 42 of the Planning Act.
