Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendments approved for 12-storey mixed-use development and townhouses.
The applicant appealed the municipality's failure to make a decision on Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment applications to permit a 12-storey mixed-use building and 63 townhouses.
The municipality argued the proposed height and density were incompatible with the surrounding low-rise neighbourhood and lacked affordable housing content.
The Tribunal found the proposed development represented an efficient use of underutilized land, provided appropriate transition to the existing neighbourhood, and conformed to the applicable provincial and municipal planning policies.
The appeals were allowed in part, and the amendments were approved in principle subject to finalization of site-specific exceptions.
