The applicants appealed the City of Kawartha Lakes' refusal to pass a Zoning By-Law Amendment to permit a single detached dwelling.
On the eve of the hearing, the applicants withdrew their appeal.
The City requested that two letters filed by the applicants' co-counsel be struck from the record, arguing they contained confidential settlement discussions.
The Tribunal dismissed the request to strike but ordered that the letters be treated as confidential pursuant to Rule 22.2 of the Tribunal's Rules of Practice and Procedure, as the interest of the City outweighed the desirability of public access.
