The appellants appealed the Town of Fort Erie's adoption of Official Plan Amendment No. 56 and Zoning By-law Amendment No. 144-2021.
Prior to the merit hearing, the parties reached a settlement to permit a four-storey apartment building with ground-floor commercial units.
Based on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and in conformity with the applicable Official Plans.
The Tribunal allowed the appeals in part to implement the revised amendments.
