Motion to consolidate plan of subdivision and official plan amendment appeals denied due to potential prejudice.
The City of Ottawa brought a motion to consolidate appeals relating to a proposed plan of subdivision and a City-initiated official plan amendment for lands in the Village of Greely.
The applicant opposed the consolidation, arguing it would be prejudicial to hear the official plan amendment appeal before or alongside the site-specific appeals.
The Tribunal denied the motion to consolidate, finding that doing so would result in prejudice to the applicant and could lead to contradictory decisions.
The official plan amendment appeal was ordered to be held in abeyance until the disposition of the plan of subdivision appeal.
