The applicant appealed the City of Toronto's failure to make a decision on a zoning by-law amendment application to permit a mixed-use development at 102 Berkeley Street.
Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement for a revised 35-storey building that includes an expanded public park along the street frontage to maintain the low-rise character.
Based on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement proposal consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and in conformity with the Growth Plan and City Official Plan.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part and approved the zoning by-law amendment in principle, withholding its final order until several conditions are met.
