Minor variances for an existing detached garage authorized subject to drainage and grading conditions.
The appellants appealed the County of Brant's refusal of a minor variance application for an already-constructed detached garage.
The variances sought reductions to the rear and interior side yard setbacks.
The Tribunal heard unchallenged expert planning evidence that the variances, subject to conditions addressing drainage and grading, met the four tests under s. 45(1) of the Planning Act, were consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, and conformed to the Growth Plan.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part and authorized the variances subject to conditions.
