CONRB 2019

The Conservation Review Board issued a procedural order following a pre-hearing conference regarding an objection to a Notice of Intention to Designate a property.

The order sets out the organization and conduct of the upcoming three-day hearing, including dates for the hearing, site visit, and deadlines for the exchange of witness lists, expert reports, and documentary evidence.

A pre-hearing conference was held regarding an objection to a Notice of Intention to Designate the property at 505 Balliol Street under the Ontario Heritage Act.

The Conservation Review Board granted participant status to a local resident and set the procedural schedule, including dates for the hearing, document exchange, and a further pre-hearing conference.

The Conservation Review Board held a pre-hearing conference regarding objections to Notices of Intention to Designate four properties.

The community group SORE Association sought party status, which the objectors opposed.

The Board granted SORE party status, finding it had a genuine interest, would make a useful contribution, and its addition would not cause prejudice or delay.

The Board also ordered concurrent hearings for the four related proceedings and directed the scheduling of a pre-hearing settlement conference.
