Tribunal partially approves OPA 409 for Villiers Island and brings unappealed sections into force.
The City of Toronto brought a motion on consent for an order bringing into force the unappealed portions of Official Plan Amendment No. 409 (OPA 409) and Zoning By-law 702-2024, which relate to the redevelopment of Villiers Island in the Port Lands.
The Tribunal granted party status to several entities and approved a minor modification to OPA 409 to address concerns raised by LaFarge Canada Inc. regarding its adjacent cement terminal.
The Tribunal ordered that the unappealed sections of OPA 409 came into force on July 30, 2024, and established a procedural order for the hearing of the remaining site-specific and precinct-wide appeals by the Toronto Port Authority.
